Impact of acquired broad-spectrum β-lactamases on susceptibility to oral penems/carbapenems (tebipenem, sulopenem, and faropenem) alone or in combination with avibactam and taniborbactam β-lactamase inhibitors in Escherichia coli.

ABSTRACT: The impact of β-lactamases on susceptibility to oral penems/carbapenems (tebipenem, sulopenem, and faropenem) and other carbapenem molecules was evaluated in Escherichia coli, alone and in combination with avibactam or taniborbactam β-lactamase inhibitors. Tebipenem and sulopenem exhibited a similar spectrum of activity compared to the intravenous carbapenems and displayed lower MIC values than ceftibuten-avibactam against E. coli producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases or AmpC enzymes. Combined with taniborbactam, tebipenem and sulopenem exhibited low MIC values against almost all tested recombinant E. coli, including metallo-β-lactamase producers.

Project description:β-Lactamase enzymes (EC 3.5.2.6) are a significant threat to the continued use of β-lactam antibiotics to treat infections. A novel non-β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor with activity against many class A and C and some class D β-lactamase variants, avibactam, is now available in the clinic in partnership with ceftazidime. Here, we explored the activity of avibactam against a variety of characterized isogenic laboratory constructs of β-lactamase inhibitor-resistant variants of the class A enzyme SHV (M69I/L/V, S130G, K234R, R244S, and N276D). We discovered that the S130G variant of SHV-1 shows the most significant resistance to inhibition by avibactam, based on both microbiological and biochemical characterizations. Using a constant concentration of 4 mg/liter of avibactam as a β-lactamase inhibitor in combination with ampicillin, the MIC increased from 1 mg/liter for blaSHV-1 to 256 mg/liter for blaSHV S130G expressed in Escherichia coli DH10B. At steady state, the k2/K value of the S130G variant when inactivated by avibactam was 1.3 M(-1) s(-1), versus 60,300 M(-1) s(-1) for the SHV-1 β-lactamase. Under timed inactivation conditions, we found that an approximately 1,700-fold-higher avibactam concentration was required to inhibit SHV S130G than the concentration that inhibited SHV-1. Molecular modeling suggested that the positioning of amino acids in the active site of SHV may result in an alternative pathway of inactivation when complexed with avibactam, compared to the structure of CTX-M-15-avibactam, and that S130 plays a role in the acylation of avibactam as a general acid/base. In addition, S130 may play a role in recyclization. As a result, we advance that the lack of a hydroxyl group at position 130 in the S130G variant of SHV-1 substantially slows carbamylation of the β-lactamase by avibactam by (i) removing an important proton acceptor and donator in catalysis and (ii) decreasing the number of H bonds. In addition, recyclization is most likely also slow due to the lack of a general base to initiate the process. Considering other inhibitor-resistant mechanisms among class A β-lactamases, S130 may be the most important amino acid for the inhibition of class A β-lactamases, perhaps even for the novel diazabicyclooctane class of β-lactamase inhibitors.

Project description:Infections caused by ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam-resistant P. aeruginosa infections are an emerging concern. We aimed to analyze the underlying ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam resistance mechanisms in all multidrug-resistant or extensively drug-resistant (MDR/XDR) P. aeruginosa isolates recovered during 1 year (2020) from patients with a documented P. aeruginosa infection. Fifteen isolates showing ceftolozane-tazobactam and ceftazidime-avibactam resistance were evaluated. Clinical conditions, previous positive cultures, and β-lactams received in the previous month were reviewed for each patient. MICs were determined by broth microdilution. Multilocus sequence types (MLSTs) and resistance mechanisms were determined using short- and long-read whole-genome sequencing (WGS). The impact of Pseudomonas-derived cephalosporinases (PDCs) on β-lactam resistance was demonstrated by cloning into an ampC-deficient PAO1 derivative (PAOΔC) and construction of 3D models. Genetic support of acquired β-lactamases was determined in silico from high-quality hybrid assemblies. In most cases, the isolates were recovered after treatment with ceftolozane-tazobactam or ceftazidime-avibactam. Seven isolates from different sequence types (STs) owed their β-lactam resistance to chromosomal mutations and all displayed specific substitutions in PDC: Phe121Leu and Gly222Ser, Pro154Leu, Ala201Thr, Gly214Arg, ΔGly203-Glu219, and Glu219Lys. In the other eight isolates, the ST175 clone was overrepresented (6 isolates) and associated with IMP-28 and IMP-13, whereas two ST1284 isolates produced VIM-2. The cloned PDCs conferred enhanced cephalosporin resistance. The 3D PDC models revealed rearrangements affecting residues involved in cephalosporin hydrolysis. Carbapenemases were chromosomal (VIM-2) or plasmid-borne (IMP-28, IMP-13) and associated with class-1 integrons located in Tn402-like transposition modules. Our findings highlighted that cephalosporin/β-lactamase inhibitors are potential selectors of MDR/XDR P. aeruginosa strains producing PDC variants or metallo-β-lactamases. Judicious use of these agents is encouraged.
