Relebactam Is a Potent Inhibitor of the KPC-2 β-Lactamase and Restores Imipenem Susceptibility in KPC-Producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018 ABSTRACT The imipenem-relebactam combination is in development as a potential treatment regimen for infections caused by Enterobacteriaceae possessing complex β-lactamase backgrounds. Relebactam is a β-lactamase inhibitor that possesses the diazabicyclooctane core, as in avibactam; however, the R1 side ...

Emergence of KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Italy [PDF]
BMC Research Notes, 2010 The emergence of KPC-producing K. pneumoniae has now become a global concern. KPC beta-lactamases are plasmid-borne and, like extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs), can accumulate and transfer resistance determinants to other classes of antibiotics.

Concomitant carriage of KPC-producing and non-KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST512 within a single patient [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2020 Abstract Background KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae of clonal group 258 are prominent in healthcare settings in many regions of the world. The blaKPC gene is mostly carried by a multireplicon IncFIIk-IncFI plasmid suspected to be highly compatible and stable in this genetic background.

Characterization of Corosolic Acid as a KPC-2 Inhibitor That Increases the Susceptibility of KPC-2-Positive Bacteria to Carbapenems [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 The emergence of KPC-producing Gram-negative bacteria in clinical practice highlights the need to search for novel antimicrobials and new anti-infection strategies. In this study, we constructed a laboratory KPC-2-positive strain, E. coli BL21(DE3) (pET28a-KPC-2) and identified the activity of KPC-2 in this strain.
