Commensal Fitness Advantage May Contribute to the Global Dissemination of Multidrug-Resistant Lineages of Bacteria—The Case of Uropathogenic E. coli

open access: yesPathogens, 2023
It is widely accepted that favorable fitness in commensal colonization is one of the prime facilitators of clonal dissemination in bacteria. The question arises as to what kind of fitness advantage may be wielded by uropathogenic strains of the two ...

Whole-genome characterisation of high-risk ST131 and the emerging ST1193 UPEC lineages in Romanian patients with recurrent urinary tract infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) are frequently associated with persistent uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) lineages that combine antimicrobial resistance with virulence traits, contributing to treatment failure. Whole-genome sequencing was

Culture, qPCR, and genome-based surveillance of blaKPC, blaNDM, and blaVIM in school wastewater from Santiago, Chile [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundAntimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance remains predominantly centered on clinical settings, potentially underestimating the community circulation of high-priority carbapenemase determinants.MethodsWe integrated culture-based isolation ...

A Resistance Mechanism in Non-mcr Colistin-Resistant Escherichia coli in Taiwan: R81H Substitution in PmrA Is an Independent Factor Contributing to Colistin Resistance

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2021
Colistin resistance due to the mcr-type genes in Escherichia coli is well characterized. In order to study the resistance mechanism in mcr-negative colistin-resistant E.

Antimicrobial resistant and extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase producing Escherichia coli in common wild bird species in Switzerland

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2019
A total of 294 fecal swabs from 294 wild birds in Switzerland were cultivated for antimicrobial resistant (AMR) Escherichia coli. Samples were also subcultivated to detect E.

CRISPR-Cas9-mediated IncF plasmid curing in extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
IncF plasmids are commonly found in extra-intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) strains, serving as reservoirs for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes and virulence factors, persistently coexisting with ExPEC lineages. Multidrug-resistant (MDR)

Genetic characteristics and risk factors of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli in Chinese intensive care unit: a prospective molecular epidemiology study [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
In this 4-month-long prospective observational study, we explored the colonization rate of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) in the patient and ward environment of an intensive care unit (ICU).

Characteristics of Escherichia coli Urine Isolates and Risk Factors for Secondary Bloodstream Infections in Patients with Urinary Tract Infections [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Escherichia coli is responsible for more than 80% of all incidences of urinary tract infections (UTIs). We assessed a total of 636 cases of patients with E.

High Prevalence of ST131 Subclades C2-H30Rx and C1-M27 Among Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli Causing Human Extraintestinal Infections in Patients From Two Hospitals of Spain and France During 2015 [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
The present study was carried out to evaluate the prevalence of sequence type 131 (ST131) among 188 extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) collected in 2015 in Lucus Augusti University hospital (Lugo, Spain) and AP-HP Beaujon ...
