A Broad‐Spectrum Horizontal Transfer Inhibitor Prevents Transmission of Plasmids Carrying Multiple Antibiotic Resistance Genes

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The dissemination of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) severely degrades the performance of antibiotics and constantly paralyzes the global health system. In particular, plasmid‐mediated transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) across bacteria is recognized as the primary driver.

First Report of Colistin-Resistant Escherichia coli Carrying mcr-1 IncI2(delta) and IncX4 Plasmids from Camels (Camelus dromedarius) in the Gulf Region. [PDF]

Addressing the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant challenge in veterinary and public health. In this study, we focused on determining the presence, phenotypic background, and genetic epidemiology of plasmid-mediated colistin ...

Plasmid‐Mediated Co‐Occurrence of mcr-1.1 in Extended‐Spectrum β‐Lactamase (ESBL)‐Producing Escherichia coli Isolated From the Indigenous Seminomadic Community in Malaysia

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The growing prevalence of commensal antibiotic resistant Escherichia coli poses a significant concern for the global spread of antibiotic resistance. Stool samples (n = 35) from a seminomadic indigenous community in Malaysia, the Jehai, were screened for multidrug‐resistant bacteria, specifically the extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase (ESBL) producers ...

Identification and Genomic Analyses of a Multidrug Resistant Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli Coharboring mcr-1, blaTEM-176 and blaCTX-M-14 Genes

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The emergence and transmission of the colistin‐resistance gene mcr and extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase (ESBL) encoding genes pose a significant threat to global public health. In recent years, it has been reported that mcr-1 and ESBL genes can coexist in single bacteria strain.

Heterogeneous and flexible transmission of mcr-1 in hospital-associated escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2018
The recent emergence of a transferable colistin resistance mechanism, MCR-1, has gained global attention because of its threat to clinical treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria.

Key features of mcr-1-bearing plasmids from Escherichia coli isolated from humans and food

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2017
Background Mcr-1-harboring Enterobacteriaceae are reported worldwide since their first discovery in 2015. However, a limited number of studies are available that compared full-length plasmid sequences of human and animal origins.

The global distribution and spread of the mobilized colistin resistance gene mcr-1. [PDF]

, 2018
Colistin represents one of the few available drugs for treating infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. As such, the recent plasmid-mediated spread of the colistin resistance gene mcr-1 poses a significant public health threat ...
