K. pneumoniae: ¿The new “superbacteria”? Pathogenicity, epidemiology and resistance mechanisms K. pneumoniae: ¿la nueva

Iatreia, 2010
The antimicrobial resistance is an increasing problem of public health. Klebsiella pneumoniae has become one of the most important pathogens because it is a frequent cause of nosocomial and community acquired infections and it has pathogenicity mechanisms like capsules, adhesive properties mediated by specialized estructures (pillis) and siderophores ...

Virulence Factors and Antibiotic Resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains Isolated From Neonates With Sepsis

Frontiers in Medicine, 2018
Introduction:Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most important infectious agents in neonates. There are “classic” and hypervirulent strains of K. pneumoniae. The “classic” non-virulent strain of K. pneumoniae, producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamases

Clinical and Molecular Characteristics and Antibacterial Strategies of Klebsiella pneumoniae in Pyogenic Infection

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Treatment of Klebsiella pneumoniae causing pyogenic infections is challenging. The clinical and molecular characteristics of Klebsiella pneumoniae causing pyogenic infections are poorly understood, and antibacterial treatment strategies are limited.

Efficacy of Ceftazidime-Avibactam Salvage Therapy in Patients With Infections Caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemase–producing K. pneumoniae

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2018
Background Ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI) has been approved in Europe for the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal and urinary tract infections, as well as hospital-acquired pneumonia, and for gram-negative infections with limited treatment options.

SKAP2 is required for defense against K. pneumoniae infection and neutrophil respiratory burst

eLife, 2020
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a respiratory, blood, liver, and bladder pathogen of significant clinical concern. We show that the adaptor protein, SKAP2, is required for protection against K. pneumoniae (ATCC 43816) pulmonary infections. Skap2-/- mice had 100-

Rapid Detection to Differentiate Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) From Classical K. pneumoniae by Identifying peg-344 With Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplication (LAMP)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Objectives To establish a rapid molecular diagnostics of hvKp using the peg-344 loop-mediated isothermal amplification technique (LAMP). Methods In all, 28 K. pneumoniae strains isolated from the blood of patients were used for the peg-344 LAMP.
