Epidemiological, phenotypic and genotypic characteristics difference of hypervirulent and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae with different capsular serotypes

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection
Background: KL1, KL2 CR-hvKP and KL64, KL47 hv-CRKP all exhibit overlapping multidrug resistance and hypervirulence phenotypes, but the differences in epidemiological, phenotypic and genotypic characteristics between them remains unclear.

Molecular characterization and zoonotic potential of Blastocystis subtypes in domestic pigs and cattle from Hainan, a tropical island province in China [PDF]

Parasite
Blastocystis is one of the most prevalent intestinal protozoans, transmitted through the fecal-oral route. Domestic pigs and cattle serve as important reservoirs for Blastocystis, playing a crucial role in its transmission dynamics. In the present study,

Genetic characterization and passage instability of a novel hybrid virulence plasmid in a ST23 hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Hypervirulent variants of Klebsiella pnuemoniae (hvKP), which causes life-threatening infections, is a global priority pathogen and frequently harbours virulence plasmids. The virulence plasmids have emerged as the predominant vehicles carrying the major pathogenic determinants of hypermucoviscosity and hypervirulence phenotypes.

Genome assemblies: Horizontal transfer of pOXA-48 from a hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae ST23/KL57 to Serratia marcescens

, 2023
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumonia isolates express a range of virulence factors, often encoded on virulence plasmids. Occasionally these hypervirulent lineages acquire antimicrobial resistance genes rendering them multidrug-resistant.
