Effects of chlorogenic acid on antimicrobial, antivirulence, and anti-quorum sensing of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The rise in infections caused by the hypervirulent carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (hv-CRKP) is an emergent threat to public health. We assessed the effects of chlorogenic acid (CA), a natural phenolic compound, on antibacterial, antivirulence,

Epidemiological characteristics and molecular evolution mechanisms of carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-hvKP), a type of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) that exhibits hypervirulence and carbapenem resistance phenotypes, can cause severe infections, both hospital- and community-acquired infections.

The analysis of para-cresol production and tolerance in Clostridium difficile 027 and 012 strains. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Clostridium difficile is the major cause of antibiotic associated diarrhoea and in recent years its increased prevalence has been linked to the emergence of hypervirulent clones such as the PCR-ribotype 027. Characteristically, C.

Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae in Cryptogenic Liver Abscesses, Paris, France [PDF]

, 2018
Liver abscesses containing hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae have emerged during the past 2 decades, originally in Southeast Asia and then worldwide. We hypothesized that hypervirulent K. pneumoniae might also be emerging in France. In a retrospective,

Construction of a Hypervirulent and Specific Mycoinsecticide for Locust Control [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2014
Locusts and grasshoppers (acridids) are among the worst pests of crops and grasslands worldwide. Metarhizium acridum, a fungal pathogen that specifically infects acridids, has been developed as a control agent but its utility is limited by slow kill time and greater expense than chemical insecticides.

Clostridium difficile ribotypes in Austria: a multicenter, hospital-based survey [PDF]

, 2015
A prospective, noninterventional survey was conducted among Clostridium difficile positive patients identified in the time period of July until October 2012 in 18 hospitals distributed across all nine Austrian provinces.

Large-scale genomic analysis of global Klebsiella pneumoniae plasmids reveals multiple simultaneous clusters of carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent strains [PDF]

, 2023
BACKGROUND: Klebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) Gram-negative bacteria cause nosocomial infections and rapidly acquire antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which makes it a global threat to human health.

The emergence of ‘hypervirulence’ in Clostridium difficile

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2010
The impact of Clostridium difficile-associated disease (CDAD) in healthcare settings throughout the developed world is considerable in terms of mortality, morbidity, and disease management. The incidence of CDAD has risen dramatically since the turn of this century, concomitant with the emergence of so-called hypervirulent strains which are thought to ...
