Characterisation of ST25 NDM-1-producing Acinetobacter spp. strains leading the increase in NDM-1 emergence in Argentina

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2020
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii are recognised by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as an urgent threat [1]. The most prevalent mechanism of carbapenem resistance in Acinetobacter spp. is due to the presence of carbapenem-hydrolysing class D β-lactamases, with OXA-23 being the most common. The observed dispersion

Outbreak Of NDM-1-producing Klebsiella Pneumoniae In A Neonatal Unit In Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Six multiresistant, NDM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae strains were recovered from an outbreak that affected six neonatal patients in a Colombian hospital. Molecular analysis showed that all of the isolates harbored the blaNDM-1, qnrA, and intI1 genes

DOTA‐grafted Cationic Polymers Behaving as Powerful Macromolecular Resistance‐reversal Agents (MRRAs) Combating Against New Delhi Metallo‐β‐lactamase (NDM)‐producing Bacteria

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Two macromolecular resistance‐reversal agents (MRRAs)—linear (MRRAL) and nanostructured (MRRAN) polymers were fabricated by integrating DOTA motifs into tunable polycationic scaffolds. MRRAs exhibit superior antibacterial potency once combined with meropenem (MEM) through (i) bacterial membrane disruption via localized cationic charge and ...

A Dual‐Functional Biohybrid Nanorobot to Synergistically Eradicate Biofilm and Degrade Antibiotic Resistance Genes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A biohybrid nanorobot integrating lytic bacteriophage N4 with Pd nanozymes is developed for targeted eradication of multidrug‐resistant E. coli biofilms. Synergistic bacterial lysis and ROS‐mediated oxidation enable simultaneous biofilm removal and antibiotic resistance genes degradation, maintaining high efficacy in complex wastewater environments ...

Discovery of NDM-1 inhibitors from natural products

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2019
Human health is seriously threatened by metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-mediated bacterial antimicrobial resistance, among which New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase 1 (NDM-1) has received great attention due to its extensive substrate profile and high lateral gene transfer.

Draft Genome Sequences of Pandrug-Resistant Serratia marcescens Clinical Isolates Harboring bla NDM-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The draft genome sequences of two clonal, pandrug-resistant Serratia marcescens clinical isolates were determined. The resistance phenotype was plasmid driven, as 14 of 17 resistance genes were present on large IncFIB(K), IncHI2, and IncA/C2 plasmids ...

Discovery of a Novel Natural Allosteric Inhibitor That Targets NDM-1 Against Escherichia coli

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
At present, the resistance of New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) to carbapenems and cephalosporins, one of the mechanisms of bacterial resistance against β-lactam antibiotics, poses a threat to human health. In this work, based on the virtual ligand

Iron deficiency with and without anemia in pregnancy: A scoping review of prevalence and perinatal impact

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The prevalence of iron deficiency with anemia and iron deficiency without anemia (IDWA) during pregnancy have not been summarized, and evidence of the direct association of IDWA with adverse perinatal outcomes (APO) are unknown.
