Third generation cephalosporin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae thriving in patients and in wastewater: what do they have in common?

Jaqueline Rocha et al.

Summary: This study compared the phenotypic, genotypic, and genomic characteristics of clinical and wastewater isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and found that they cannot be distinguished based on these features. Whole genome sequence analysis revealed that antibiotic and metal resistance or virulence genes were associated with mobile genetic elements, and these features varied among isolates according to their genetic lineage rather than their origin. Therefore, this study suggests that clinically relevant features of K. pneumoniae can be preserved in wastewater, even after treatment, highlighting the high capacity of K. pneumoniae for spreading through wastewater and increasing the risks of transmission back to humans.

A Review of Rhazya stricta Decne Phytochemistry, Bioactivities, Pharmacological Activities, Toxicity, and Folkloric Medicinal Uses

Abdulaziz Albeshri et al.

Summary: Rhazya stricta, a local medicinal plant, has been used in different cultures for treating various medical disorders. Phytochemical studies revealed alkaloidal, fatty acid, flavonoid, and terpenoid compounds in R. stricta extract. Pharmacological and biological activities such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, larvicidal, and phytoremediation have been identified in the extract, while toxic, genotoxic, and mutagenic properties were also observed. Further research is needed to explore the potential medical, veterinary, and ecological uses of the novel phytochemical compounds present in R. stricta.
