Conjugative IncHI2/HI2A plasmids harbouring mcr-9 in colistin-susceptible Escherichia coli isolated from diseased pigs in Japan

open access: yesAccess Microbiology, 2022
Colistin is a last resort antimicrobial used for the treatment of gram-negative bacterial infections. Plasmid-mediated colistin resistance (mcr) genes are a cause of global concern, and, thus far, mcr-1–10 have been identified. In a previous study, we screened mcr-1–5 in Escherichia coli

Occurrence and characterization of NDM-5-producing Escherichia coli from retail eggs

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
The New Delhi Metallo-β-lactamase (NDM) producing Enterobacterales has been detected from diverse sources but has rarely been reported in retail eggs. In this study, 144 eggshell and 96 egg content samples were collected in 2022 from Guangdong province ...

The first description of the complete genome sequence of multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar monophasic Typhimurium (1,4,[5],12:i:-) isolate with the mcr-1.1 gene on IncHI2 found in pig in Poland

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2023
Monophasic Salmonella Typhimurium (1,4,[5],12:i:-) is one of the leading Salmonella serovars causing human salmonellosis in Europe. It has been observed in Poland since 2008.

Colistin Resistance in Bacteria: Current Updates on Mechanism of Action and Combating Strategies

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The rapid development of colistin‐resistant bacteria is the biggest global health issue since colistin is referred to as a ‘last‐hope resource’ against life‐threatening infections caused by GNB (Gram‐negative bacteria). Injudicious and excessive colistin application in clinical, agricultural and veterinary practices, as well as plasmid‐mediated ...

Two IncHI2 Plasmid-Mediated Colistin-Resistant Escherichia coli Strains from the Broiler Chicken Supply Chain in Zhejiang Province, China

open access: yesJournal of Food Protection, 2020
Colistin is used as one of the last-resort drugs against lethal infections caused by carbapenem-resistant pathogens of the Enterobacteriaceae family. Enterobacteriaceae bacteria carrying the mcr-1 colistin resistance gene are emerging in livestock and poultry, posing a serious threat to human health.
