Escenario actual de la resistencia a la colistina mediada por plásmidos en América Latina [PDF]
Colistin resistance can occur by chromosomal mutations and by acquisition of plasmid-carrying determinants, mainly mcr-1. In the recent years, we have observed the outburst of this resistance gene in our region. Due to the risk of the rapid dissemination

This study investigated the prevalence of IncX plasmid subtypes in commensal and pathogenic Escherichia coli isolates and the biological features of the IncX4 subtype. Two hundred and twenty-five E. coli isolates from multiple sources (47 chickens, 41 pigs, 30 cattle and 107 humans) obtained during the period 2006–2012 were tested for the presence of ...

Prevalence, risk factors, outcomes, and molecular epidemiology of mcr-1 -positive Enterobacteriaceae in patients and healthy adults from China: an epidemiological and clinical study [PDF]
Background The mcr-1 gene confers transferable colistin resistance. mcr-1-positive Enterobacteriaceae (MCRPE) have attracted substantial medical, media, and political attention; however, so far studies have not addressed their clinical impact. Herein, we

Molecular Characterization of an Atypical IncX3 Plasmid pKPC-NY79 Carrying blaKPC-2 in a Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]
The IncX family of plasmids has recently been expanded to include at least four subtypes, IncX1-IncX4. The revised classification provides an opportunity for improving our understanding of the sequence diversity of the IncX plasmids and the resistance ...
