Clinical evolution of ST11 carbapenem resistant and hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae [PDF]

Communications Biology, 2021
AbstractCarbapenem-resistant and hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (CR-HvKP) strains that have emerged recently have caused infections of extremely high mortality in various countries. In this study, we discovered a conjugative plasmid that encodes carbapenem resistance and hypervirulence in a clinical ST86 K2 CR-HvKP, namely 17ZR-91. The conjugative plasmid

Spread of ST11-O13/KL47 hypervirulent carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates in China

Scientific Reports
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) poses a serious threat to global public health. Hypervirulent CRKP (Hv-CRKP) can cause life-threatening infections, with significantly higher virulence and mortality compared to classical CRKP.

The Origins of ST11 KL64 Klebsiella pneumoniae: a Genome-Based Study

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) has emerged as a severe threat globally and is associated with increased lengths of hospital stay and high mortality in affected patients. The spread of CRKP is largely driven by a few dominant lineages, including ST11-KL64, the dominant type in China with a ...

Infection caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11 in a patient after craniectomy [PDF]

Folia Microbiologica, 2019
Klebsiella pneumoniae infections have always been an important problem in public health, but today, the increasing resistance of these bacteria to antibiotics due to β-lactamases production has renewed interest in K. pneumoniae infections. The aim of the study was to present a case of a neurosurgical patient with multidrug-resistant K.

ST11, the dominant clone of KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in China [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2010
Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae has spread rapidly in China. In this study, we aimed to investigate the molecular epidemiology of KPC-producing K. pneumoniae isolates in China.Ninety-five carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae isolates from 13 hospitals in nine cities covering five provinces in China were analysed.

Characterization of Klebsiella pneumoniae ST11 Isolates and Their Interactions with Lytic Phages [PDF]

Viruses, 2019
The bacterial pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae causes urinary tract infections in immunocompromised patients. Generally, the overuse of antibiotics contributes to the potential development and the spread of antibiotic resistance. In fact, certain strains of K.
