Characterization of NDM-5-producing Enterobacteriaceae isolates from retail grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) and evidence of blaNDM-5- bearing IncHI2 plasmid transfer between ducks and fish

Lu-Chao Lv et al.

Summary: This study characterized NDM-5-producing Enterobacteriaceae from aquatic products in Guangzhou, China, identifying bla(NDM-5) in Citrobacter freundii and Escherichia coli strains on various plasmids. The transfer of bla(NDM-5) between different plasmids was likely facilitated by the Tn7051 transposon, expanding the transmission vectors of this carbapenemase gene.

Vincenzo Di Pilato et al.

Summary: This study investigated an outbreak of NDM-CPE in Tuscany, Italy, caused by ST147 K pneumoniae producing NDM-1. The clone had a complex resistome and virulome, capable of sustaining a large regional outbreak, highlighting the need for global surveillance programs to track and prevent their dissemination.

Spread of OXA-48 and NDM-1-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ST48 and ST101 in Chicken Meat in Western Algeria

Nadia Chaalal et al.

Summary: The study investigated the prevalence of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in chicken meat in Western Algeria in 2017. It found a certain proportion of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in the samples, and further characterized these strains with regard to antibiotic resistance, beta-lactamase content, plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance, sulfonamide resistance genes, clonality, and virulence traits. The study concluded that food serves as a reservoir of the carbapenemases encoding genes.

The use of multi-pronged screening strategy to understand the epidemiology of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in Hong Kong: transition from epidemic to endemic setting

Shuk-Ching Wong et al.

Summary: A multi-pronged screening strategy for carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) was implemented in the West healthcare network in Hong Kong. The incidence of CPE increased significantly from 2012 to 2018, but appropriate infection control measures helped to reduce the incidence of nosocomial CPE. People who frequently purchased raw meat and vegetables from wet markets were found to have a higher risk of community acquisition of CPE. Strategic control measures for CPE should be implemented in both hospital and community settings.

Summary: According to the study, broilers reared in the PN system had a higher body weight. The MC system led to poorer intestinal development and health condition, but with better FCR. The FL rearing system appeared to be beneficial for gastrointestinal development and health.

Trade-Offs between Antibacterial Resistance and Fitness Cost in the Production of Metallo-β-Lactamases by Enteric Bacteria Manifest as Sporadic Emergence of Carbapenem Resistance in a Clinical Setting

Ching Hei Phoebe Cheung et al.

Summary: The study shows that NDM-1 is more common than IMP-1, leading to meropenem resistance due to higher bla(NDM-1) expression, but with a higher fitness cost. On the other hand, a modified bla(NDM-1) reduces MBL production, lowering fitness cost and resulting in no resistance. However, a ramR mutation causing reduced NDM-1 production leads to meropenem resistance in certain strains.

Rapid spread of critical priority carbapenemase-producing pathogens in companion animals: a One Health challenge for a post-pandemic world

Fabio P. Sellera et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has deepened the relationships between humans and companion animals, leading to an increase in the use of antibiotics and biocides worldwide. Data from global surveillance studies show a linear trend in increasing carbapenem resistance among Gram-negative pathogens in companion animals, with humans potentially acquiring carbapenemase-producing bacteria through contact with infected animals or contaminated environments. The rapid spread of WHO critical priority carbapenemase-producing pathogens in companion animals presents a One Health challenge for the post-pandemic world.

IS26 Is Responsible for the Evolution and Transmission of blaNDM-Harboring Plasmids in Escherichia coli of Poultry Origin in China

Qiu-Yun Zhao et al.

Summary: Carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae is a major challenge in treating nosocomial infections. The bla(NDM) carbapenemase genes, expressed by NDM-producing Escherichia coli, have been found in various sources worldwide, including farm animals. This study investigates the dynamic evolution of blaNDM genetic contexts and bla(NDM)-harboring plasmids, with a focus on the role of IS26 elements in multi drug-resistant regions (MRRs) formation and the dissemination of blaNDM. The findings emphasize the importance of monitoring and limiting the transmission of NDM-producing isolates from food animals to humans.

Emergence of IncHI2 Plasmid-Harboring blaNDM-5 from Porcine Escherichia coli Isolates in Guangdong, China

Zhenbao Ma et al.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence of bla(NDM-5) in pigs and analyzed the molecular characteristics of NDM-5-producing Escherichia coli isolates in Guangdong province, China. The results revealed that bla(NDM-5) was found in IncX3 and IncHI2 plasmids, with IncHI2 plasmids containing a typical IncHI2 plasmid backbone region and a multiresistance region (MRR). Continued surveillance for the dissemination of bla(NDM-5) among food-producing animals is necessary to understand and control carbapenem resistance.

Wan-Yun He et al.

Summary: In a surveillance study on diarrheal calves in Xinjiang, China in 2018, a high prevalence of fosfomycin resistance in Escherichia coli isolates was observed. The study identified the fosA3 gene as the main determinant of resistance, with genetic analysis revealing four distinct subgroups of resistant E. coli isolates.
