Project description:ImportanceIn this study, an IncFII plasmid pIncFII-NDM5 carrying blaNDM-5 was found in carbapenem-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. enterica serovar Typhimurium), which has conjugative transferability and carried blaNDM-5, bleMBL, mph(A), and blaTEM-1 four resistance genes that can mediate resistance to multiple antibiotics including cephalosporins, beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations, carbapenems, and macrolides. Phylogenetic analysis showed that 1104-65 and 1104-75 were closely related to other S. enterica serovar Typhimurium in this area. The above-mentioned S. enterica serovar Typhimurium chromosome carries blaCTX-M-55, qnrS1, and tet(A) genes, so the antibiotic resistance of isolates will be further enhanced after obtaining the pIncFII_NDM5-like plasmid. Meanwhile, we discovered a novel genetic structure of blaNDM-5 mediated by the IS26 composite transposon, which will expand our understanding of the emergence and spread of carbapenem-resistance genes. Altogether, the presence of the IncFII plasmid pIncFII-NDM5 further underscores the need for vigilant surveillance and appropriate infection control measures to mitigate the impact of carbapenem-resistant S. enterica serovar Typhimurium in clinical settings.

Project description:Nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) is one of the most prevalent bacterial causes of gastrointestinal infections worldwide. Meanwhile, the detection rate of CTX-M-55 ESBL-positive has increased gradually in China. To identify the molecular epidemiological and genomic characteristics of blaCTX-M-55-carrying nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) clinical isolates, a total of 105 NTS isolates were collected from a Chinese tertiary hospital. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed to determine the resistance phenotype. Whole-genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were used to determine the antimicrobial resistance genes, serotypes, phylogenetic relationships, and the genetic environment of the blaCTX-M-55 gene. The results showed that among the 22 ceftriaxone resistant isolates, the blaCTX-M-55 was the most common β-Lactamase gene carried by 14 isolates, including serotypes S. Typhimurium (10/14), S. Muenster (2/14), S. Rissen (1/14), and S. Saintpaul (1/14). Phylogenetic analysis shows that 10 blaCTX-M-55-positive S. Typhimurium ST34 isolates were divided into two clusters. The genetic relationship of isolates in each cluster was very close (≤10 cgMLST loci). The blaCTX-M-55 gene was located on the chromosome in 10 isolates, on IncI1 plasmid in three isolates, and IncHI2 plasmid in one isolate. In conclusion, the blaCTX-M-55 gene, mainly located on the chromosome of S. Typhimurium ST34 isolates, was the main driving force associated with the resistance of NTS to cephalosporins. Therefore, close attention to the clonal dissemination of blaCTX-M-55-carrying S. Typhimurium ST34 in clinical settings must be monitored carefully. IMPORTANCE ESCs are the first choice for treating NTS infections. However, ESBLs and AmpC β-lactamases are the most typical cause for ESCs resistance. The CTX-M-55 ESBL-positive rate has gradually increased in the clinic in recent years. At present, the research about blaCTX-M-55-positive Salmonella mainly focuses on the foodborne animals or the environment while less on clinical patients. Thus, this study was carried out for identifying molecular epidemiological and genomic characteristics of blaCTX-M-55-carrying NTS clinical isolates. The results showed that the blaCTX-M-55 gene, mainly located on the chromosome of S. Typhimurium ST34 isolates from Conghua District, was the main driving force associated with the resistance of NTS to cephalosporins. Therefore, our work highlights the importance of monitoring the clonal dissemination of blaCTX-M-55-carrying S. Typhimurium ST34 in clinical settings.

Project description:Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) production and (fluoro)quinolone (FQ) resistance among Salmonella pose a public health threat. The objective of this study was the phenotypic and genotypic characterization of an ESBL-producing and nalidixic acid-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Gloucester isolate (serotype 4:i:l,w) of sequence type 34 (ST34) from ready-to-eat (RTE) meat products in China. Whole-genome short and long read sequencing (HiSeq and MinION) results showed that it contained bla CTX-M- 55, qnrS1, and tetB genes, with bla CTX-M- 55 and qnrS1 located in chromosomal IS26-mediated composite transposon (IS26-qnrS1-IS3-Tn3-orf-bla CTX-M- 55-ISEcp1-IS26). The same genetic structure was found in the chromosome of S. enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium strain and in several plasmids of Escherichia coli, indicating that the IS26-mediated composite transposon in the chromosome of S. Gloucester may originate from plasmids of E. coli and possess the ability to disseminate to Salmonella and other bacterial species. Besides, the structural unit qnrS1-IS3-Tn3-orf-bla CTX-M- 55 was also observed to be linked with ISKpn19 in both the chromosomes and plasmids of various bacteria species, highlighting the contribution of the insertion sequences (IS26 and ISKpn19) to the co-dissemination of bla CTX-M- 55 and qnrS1. To our knowledge, this is the first description of chromosomal bla CTX-M- 55 and qnrS in S. Gloucester from RTE meat products. Our work expands the host range and provides additional evidence of the co-transfer of bla CTX-M- 55 and qnrS1 among different species of Salmonella through the food chain.

Project description:In this study, we investigated the pattern of antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis isolates in Shanghai, China from 2005 to 2014. We found the first isolates with resistance to the fourth-generation cephalosporin cefepime starting in 2010. Furthermore, we analyzed the epidemic characteristics and mechanisms of underlying cefepime resistance in S. Enteritidis isolates found from 2010. In total, 38 of 2,914 (1.30%) isolates were identified as cefepime-resistant S. Enteritidis (CRSE) isolates by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion. Two isolates were from animal derived food sources; 36 isolates were from fecal samples of human patients with salmonellosis. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing using the agar dilution method revealed that all CRSE isolates showed additional resistances at least to ceftazidime, cefotaxime, and ampicillin. Additionally, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) profiles indicated that 89.47% of CRSE isolates also displayed similar PFGE patterns. Five types of β-lactamase genes, bla CTX-M (100.00%, 38/38), bla SHV (65.79%, 25/38), bla TEM (52.63%, 20/38), bla ACC (18.42%, 7/38), and bla PSE (5.26%, 2/38) were detected by PCR and sequencing. Among bla CTX-M genes, bla CTX-M-55 was the dominant type (84.21%, 32/38). Conjugation and transformation experiments along with plasmid replicon typing revealed that bla CTX-M-55 was located on plasmids of various replicon types with sizes ranging from 76.8 to 138.9 kb. Plasmid sequence analysis also showed that the bla CTX-M-55 gene was mobilized mainly by the ISEcp1-bla CTX-M-55-ORF477 transposition unit and had its own ISEcp1-based promoter, which accelerated the expression and transmission of bla CTX-M-55. Analysis of whole genome sequences (Illumina) of one selected transformant SH12G706-C showed high similarity of the bla CTX-M-55 carrying plasmid with the IncI1 plasmid backbone p628-CTX-M of Klebsiella pneumoniae detected in 2010 in China. The present study demonstrated that the bla CTX-M-55 gene mobilized by ISEcp1- bla CTX-M-55-ORF477 was the main feature shared by CRSE isolates and seems to play an important role for transmission of cefepime resistance. The number of CRSE isolates is rising annually, and the strong dissemination ability of ISEcp1-bla CTX-M-55-ORF477-harboring plasmids among different species represents an important threat to the therapeutic effectiveness of cefepime.

Project description:The monophasic 4,[5],12:i:-variant of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium with sequence type ST34 has become one of the most prevalent non-typhoidal salmonellae worldwide. In the present study, we thoroughly characterized seven isolates of this variant detected in a Spanish hospital and selected based on cefotaxime resistance and cefoxitin susceptibility, mediated by blaCTX-M-9. For this, conventional microbiological techniques, together with whole genome sequencing performed with the Illumina platform, were applied. All selected isolates carried the resistance region RR or variants therein, and most also contained the SGI-4 genomic island. These chromosomal elements, typically associated with monophasic S. Typhimurium ST34, confer resistance to traditional antibiotics (ampicillin, streptomycin, sulfonamides, and tetracycline) and tolerance to heavy metals (mercury, silver, and copper). In addition, each isolate carried a large IncHI2-ST1 conjugative plasmid containing additional or redundant resistance genes. All harbored the blaCTX-M-9 gene responsible for cefotaxime resistance, whereas the qnrA1 gene mediating fluoroquinolone resistance was detected in two of the plasmids. These genes were embedded in ISCR1-bearing complex class 1 integrons, specifically In60-like and In36-like. The mcr-9 gene was present in all but one of the IncHI2-ST1 plasmids found in the analyzed isolates, which were nevertheless susceptible to colistin. Most of the resistance genes of plasmid origin clustered within a highly complex and variable region. The observed diversity results in a wide range of resistance phenotypes, enabling bacterial adaptation to selective pressure posed by the use of antimicrobials.

Project description:Transcriptional organization of bla(CTX-M-2) present in a multiresistance plasmid of Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis suggests the presence of more than one promoter involved in the expression of the beta-lactamase gene. At least two bla(CTX-M-2)-specific mRNAs (near to 1 kb and 5 kb) were evidenced. Two +1 signals were detected at -22 bp and -59 bp of bla(CTX-M-2) defining two putative promoters.

Project description:BackgroundColistin is one of the few options for treating carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CREs). There is little available information about the epidemic status of colistin-resistant CREs in Southern Sichuan, China. This study mainly investigated the genomic and phenotypic characteristics of an extensively drug resistant E. coli LZ00114 isolated from Luzhou, China.Materials and methodsIn 2020, LZ00114 was isolated from the urine of a patient with hydronephrosis and urinary tract infection in Luzhou, China. We assessed the resistance profile of LZ00114 in the presence and absence of the protonophore carbonyl cyano-m-chlorophenylhydrazine (CCCP) and 1-(1-naphthylmethyl)-piperazine (NMP) by antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The growth kinetics, motility, and pathogenicity of LZ00114 were determined to evaluate its microbial characteristics. In combination with whole genome sequencing (WGS) and real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR), we comprehensively analyzed the resistance mechanisms of LZ00114.ResultsLZ00114 was resistant to various antimicrobial agents, including meropenem, tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, fosfomycin, and polymyxin B. Notably, CCCP reversed the resistance of LZ00114 to polymyxin B. LZ00114 displayed high pathogenicity in the infection model (P<0.01) compared with the Lab-WT strain, and its growth rate and motility were not significantly different from the Lab-WT strain. WGS and conjugation revealed that LZ00114 belonged to ST410 and carried a bla NDM-5-harboring self-transmissible IncX3 plasmid and a multi-replicon IncFII/FIA/FIB plasmid carrying bla OXA-1-bla CTX-M-55-tet(B)-aac(6')-Ib-cr-dfrA17-sul1-fosA3. Comparative genomics revealed genetic relatedness between LZ00114 and strains isolated from other regions. Furthermore, there were point mutations in pmrA (S29G, G144S), pmrB (D283G, Y358N), marR (G103S, Y137H), emrA (I219V), and emrD (G323D) of LZ00114. RT-PCR confirmed the overexpression of efflux pumps and PmrABC in LZ00114.ConclusionThis study provides valuable information for the surveillance of antimicrobial resistance and a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of colistin-resistant E. coli. There is still a need to be vigilant about the clone spread of the high-risk clone group E. coli ST410.

Project description:Transmission of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes has increased the global prevalence of ESBL-producing bacteria, especially in developing countries. Human infection with these bacteria may be food-mediated but has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, we aimed to examine ESBL-producing bacteria in edible river fish and elucidate their potential for horizontal gene transfer. A total of 173 ESBL-producing Enterobacterales were isolated (Escherichia coli [n = 87], Klebsiella pneumoniae [n = 52], Enterobacter cloacae complex [n = 18], Citrobacter freundii complex [n = 14], Atlantibacter hermannii [n = 1] and Serratia fonticola [n = 1]) from 56 of 80 fish intestinal contents sampled. Among the bacterial bla CTX-M genotypes, bla CTX-M-55 was the most predominant, followed by bla CTX-M-15, bla CTX-M-27, and bla CTX-M-65. Furthermore, we found that ESBL-producing Enterobacterales were able to transfer their bla CTX-M genes to E. coli. In summary, our results suggest that ESBL-producing Enterobacterales transfer bla CTX-M to indigenous gut E. coli in humans, following the consumption of contaminated fish.

Project description:Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae has been a major clinical threat worldwide because therapeutic options are limited. Although New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM) is an important carbapenemase responsible for carbapenem resistance, it is uncommon in carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae in China. In this study, we described strain HZW25, an NDM-7-producing K. pneumoniae strain belonging to sequence type 34 (ST34). HZW25 exhibited resistance to all β-lactams tested but was susceptible to aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolones. The whole genome of HZW25 was sequenced with Pacific Biosciences RSII SMRT technology. HZW25 was composed of one chromosomal DNA and four plasmids, and the resistance genes of HZW25 were all located on the chromosome, except bla NDM-7 was located on a conjugative plasmid belonging to type IncX3 designated P4. The results of conjugation and transformation experiments showed that bla NDM-7 could be horizontally transferred successfully from the donor strain, HZW25, to the recipient strains, E. coli J53 and E. coli DH5α. The NDM variant transposable elements of the bla NDM-7-harboring plasmid P4 were the ISL3 and IS3000 families. The upstream region of bla NDM-7 contained ΔISAba125, which was inserted near the IS5 or ΔIS5 sequence. Our study is the first report of metallo-β-lactamase NDM-7 in a carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae strain with ST34 in China. The emergence of NDM-producing K. pneumoniae would be troublesome during treatment using ceftazidime-avibactam. Therefore, the rapid and accurate identification of carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae is necessary.
