[PMID: 38655284 PMCID: PMC11037251 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2024.1301351] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Bacterial infections emerge as a significant contributor to mortality and morbidity worldwide. Emerging extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) Escherichia coli strains provide a greater risk of bacteremia and mortality, are increasingly resistant to antibiotics, and are a major producer of ESBLs. E. coli bacteremia-linked mastitis is one of the most common bacterial diseases in animals, which can affect the quality of the milk and damage organ functions. There is an elevated menace of treatment failure and recurrence of E. coli bacteremia necessitating the adoption of rigorous alternative treatment approaches. In this study, Se-Boil-CuO multimetallic nanoparticles (MMNPs) were synthesized as an alternate treatment from Talaromyces haitouensis extract, and their efficiency in treating ESBL E. coli was confirmed using standard antimicrobial assays. Scanning electron microscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, and dynamic light scattering were used to validate and characterize the mycosynthesized Se-BiO-CuO MMNPs. UV-visible spectra of Se-BiO-CuO MMNPs showed absorption peak bands at 570, 376, and 290 nm, respectively. The average diameters of the amorphous-shaped Se-BiO-CuO MMNPs synthesized by T. haitouensis extract were approximately 66-80 nm, respectively. Se-BiO-CuO MMNPs (100 μg/mL) showed a maximal inhibition zone of 18.33 ± 0.57 mm against E. coli. Se-BiO-CuO MMNPs also exhibited a deleterious impact on E. coli killing kinetics, biofilm formation, swimming motility, efflux of cellular components, and membrane integrity. The hemolysis assay also confirms the biocompatibility of Se-BiO-CuO MMNPs at the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) range. Our findings suggest that Se-BiO-CuO MMNPs may serve as a potential substitute for ESBL E. coli bacteremia.

Antibiotic resistance and virulence profiles of Proteus mirabilis isolated from broiler chickens at abattoir in South Africa. Vet Med Sci 2024; 10:e1371. [PMID: 38357843 PMCID: PMC10867704 DOI: 10.1002/vms3.1371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Proteus mirabilis has been identified as an important zoonotic pathogen, causing several illnesses such as diarrhoea, keratitis and urinary tract infections. OBJECTIVE This study assessed the prevalence of P. mirabilis in broiler chickens, its antibiotic resistance (AR) patterns, ESBL-producing P. mirabilis and the presence of virulence genes. METHODS A total of 26 isolates were confirmed as P. mirabilis from 480 pooled broiler chicken faecal samples by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The disk diffusion method was used to evaluate the antibacterial susceptibility test, while nine virulence genes and 26 AR genes were also screened by PCR. RESULTS All 26 P. mirabilis isolates harboured the ireA (siderophore receptors), ptA, and zapA (proteases), ucaA, pmfA, atfA, and mrpA (fimbriae), hlyA and hpmA (haemolysins) virulence genes. The P. mirabilis isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin (62%) and levofloxacin (54%), while 8 (30.7%) of the isolates were classified as multidrug resistant (MDR). PCR analysis identified the blaCTX-M gene (62%), blaTEM (58%) and blaCTX-M-2 (38%). Further screening for AMR genes identified mcr-1, cat1, cat2, qnrA, qnrD and mecA, 12%, 19%, 12%, 54%, 27% and 8%, respectively for P. mirabilis isolates. The prevalence of the integron integrase intI1 and intI2 genes was 43% and 4%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The rise of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin resistance, as well as MDR strains, is a public health threat that points to a challenge in the treatment of infections caused by these zoonotic bacteria. Furthermore, because ESBL-producing P. mirabilis has the potential to spread to humans, the presence of blaCTX -M -producing P. mirabilis in broilers should be kept under control. This is the first study undertaken to isolate P. mirabilis from chicken faecal samples and investigate its antibiotic resistance status as well as virulence profiles in South Africa.

Abstract
The occurrence of multidrug-resistant bacteria necessitates the development of new antibacterial agents. This study synthesized artemisinin-zinc nanoparticles (AZ NPs) using a simple green method and investigated their physicochemical properties, antibacterial activity, and oral biological activity. A spherical shape morphology of AZ NPs was observed by scanning and transmission electron microscopy, with a particle size of 73 ± 2.604 nm. Energy dispersive spectrometry analysis showed that the AZ NPs consisted mainly of Zn, C, N, and O elements. According to differential scanning calorimeter analysis, the AZ NPs were stable up to 450 °C. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that artemisinin successfully bound to zinc acetate. The AZ NPs showed antibacterial activity against Salmonella and Escherichia coli, with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.056 mg/mL for both and minimum bactericidal concentrations of 0.21 and 0.11 mg/mL, respectively. The mechanisms by which AZ NPs mediate membrane damage were revealed by the downregulation of gene expression, and potassium ion and protein leakage. In vivo safety trials of these drugs revealed low toxicity. After AZ NPs were administered to infected mice, the intestinal bacteria decreased significantly, liver and kidney function were restored, histopathological damage to the liver and spleen were reduced, and the expression of inflammatory cytokines decreased. Therefore, AZ NPs have the potential as an oral antibacterial agent and can be used in antibiotic development and in the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: To obtain the first national estimates of the current prevalence rate of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in pregnant women and antimicrobial resistance of causing pathogens in Ukraine. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: Prospective multicentre cohort study was conducted from January 2020 to December 2022. The study population consisted of 36,876 pregnant women from 17 regions of Ukraine. Antibiotic susceptibility was done by the disc diffusion test as recommended by European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing guidelines. RESULTS Results: A total 29.5% pregnant women were found to have UTIs. Among these cases, 36.5% Asymptomatic bacteriuria, 51.7% Cystitis and 11.8% Pyelonephritis were observed. Of all cases, 87.9% were defined as healthcare-acquired UTIs and 12.1% community-acquired UTIs. The most common uropathogen was Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Many uropathogens isolated from UTI cases were found to be multidrug resistant. CONCLUSION Conclusions: UTIs in pregnant women in Ukraine is a common occurrence and many cases are caused by pathogens that are resistant to antibiotics. Optimizing the management and empirical antimicrobial therapy may reduce the burden of UTIs in pregnant women, but prevention is the key element.

Abstract
Abstract
Background Healthcare-associated urinary tract infections (HAUTIs) caused by gram-negative pathogens have emerged as a global concern. So far, little is known about the epidemiology of extended-spectrum β lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in HAUTIs in India. The study was carried to determine the antibiotic resistance pattern and ESBL-producing genes in E. coli and K. pneumoniae strains isolated from HAUTIs in a tertiary institute in North India.
Methods A total of 200 consecutive, nonduplicate clinical isolates of E. coli and 140 isolates of K. pneumoniae from hospitalized patients with UTI were collected during a period of 1 year. Strains were studied for the presence of ESBL genes (blaCTX-M1, blaCTX-M2, blaCTX-M9, blaCTX-M15, blaSHV, blaTEM, blaOXA-1, blaVEB, blaPER-2, and blaGES) by multiplex polymerase chain reaction using gene-specific primers.
Results ESBL was detected in 82.5% (165 out of 200) isolates of E. coli and 74.3% (104 out of 140) isolates of K. pneumoniae by phenotypic confirmatory testing. From 269 phenotypically positive ESBL isolates, blaTEM (49.4%) was the most common genotype followed by blaCTX-M1 (31.97%), blaOXA-1 (30.1%), and blaSHV(11.9%) either alone or in combination. In the present study, blaCTX-M-15 (84.89%) was the most common blaCTX-M1-type ESBL. In total, 2.6 and 5.2% of the isolates were positive for PER-2 and VEB genes, respectively.
Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study on ESBL resistance patterns and ESBL-producing genes in HAUTIs in North India. Our study reports high occurrence with ESBL types CTX-M-1, CTX-M-15, TEM, and SHV. Minor ESBL variants OXA-1, VEB-type, and PER-2-type β-lactamase are also emerging in HAUTIs infections in North India.

Abstract
This study investigated the prevalence, antibiogram, virulence, extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), and non-β-lactam encoding genes of Proteus species isolated from infected dogs in Ismailia province, Egypt. The study was conducted on 70 fecal swabs collected from dogs with diarrhea for bacteriological identification of Proteus spp. The positive isolates were evaluated for antibiotic susceptibility, molecular tests of virulence, ESBLs, and non-β-lactam encoding genes. Prevalence of Proteus spp. was 35.7% (25/70), including Proteus mirabilis (n = 23) and Proteus vulgaris (n = 2). The Proteus spp. prevalence revealed diversity, higher in males than females, in ages < 12 weeks. Investigation of antimicrobial resistance was found against penicillin and amoxicillin (100%), amoxicillin–clavulanic acid (32%), cephalosporins: cefotaxime and ceftazidime (36%), and monobactam: aztreonam (28%) as ESBLs, in addition to tetracycline (32%) and trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole (100%). The strains retrieved by PCR revealed ureC, zapA, and rsbA virulence genes with variant prevalence as 92%, 60%, and 52%, respectively. In addition, the recovered strains contained ESBL genes with a dramatic variable prevalence of 100%, 92%, 36%, and 32%, to blaTEM, blaSHV, blaCTX-M, and blaOXA-1, respectively, and non β-lactam encoding genes with a prevalence of 100%, 48%, 44%, 20%, and 12%, to sul1, tetA, intI1, qnrA, and aadA1. Moreover, 28% (7/25) of recovering strains were MDR (multidrug-resistant) up to four classes of antimicrobials, and 48% (12/25) of the examined strains were MDR up to three antimicrobial classes. In conclusion, to the best of our knowledge, our study could be the first report recording MDR Proteus spp. in dogs in Egypt.

Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a significant clinical problem that pregnant women and children commonly experience. Escherichia coli is the primary causative organism, along with several other gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Antimicrobial drugs are commonly prescribed to treat UTIs in these patients. Conventional treatment can range from using broad-spectrum antimicrobial drugs for empirical or prophylactic therapy or patient-tailored therapy based on urinary cultures and sensitivity to prospective antibiotics. The ongoing emergence of multi-drug resistant pathogens has raised concerns related to commonly prescribed antimicrobial drugs such as those used routinely to treat UTIs. Consequently, several natural medicines have been explored as potential complementary therapies to improve health outcomes in patients with UTIs. This review discusses the effectiveness of commonly used natural products such as cranberry juice/extracts, ascorbic acid, hyaluronic acid, probiotics, and multi-component formulations intended to treat and prevent UTIs. The combination of natural products with prescribed antimicrobial treatments and use of formulations that contained high amounts of cranberry extracts appear to be most effective in preventing recurrent UTIs (RUTIs). The incorporation of natural products like cranberry, hyaluronic acid, ascorbic acid, probiotics, Canephron® N, and Cystenium II to conventional treatments of acute UTIs or as a prophylactic regimen for treatment RUTIs can benefit both pregnant women and children. Limited information is available on the safety of natural products in these patients' populations. However, based on limited historical information, these remedies appear to be safe and well-tolerated by patients.

Abstract
Aim: Klebsiella pneumoniae is a threat to human health due to its carbapenem-resistance and hypervirulent phenotype. Curcumin is a well-known antimicrobial agent. Hence, it is important to investigate the antivirulence activity of curcumin against hypervirulent K. pneumoniae isolates. Materials & methods: Carbapenemase presence and prevalence of hypervirulent isolates were determined. Inhibition of biofilm formation and expression of virulence genes were analyzed by colorimetry and real-time PCR tests. Results: Sixteen hypervirulent K. pneumoniae isolates were identified. The optimum activity of curcumin was detected at 1/2 minimum inhibitory concentration. Curcumin possessed appropriate antibiofilm, anti-efflux and anticapsule activities. Conclusion: According to the crucial role of biofilm, capsule and efflux systems in the pathogenesis of hypervirulent K. pneumoniae, curcumin may be used to improve anti-Klebsiella treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent years, the treatment of multi-drug resistant bacteria and their effect are very difficult due to the virulence factors modification. Based on the world wide thread, we have tried to identify the ESBLs producing bacteria from urinary tract infection patients. In result, the highly antibiotic resistant effect of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae were identified. METHODS Initially, Hexa disc diffusion method was performed to detect the multi-drug resistant bacteria using respective antibiotics of HX066, HX033 and HX077, HX012 discs. Consecutively, the ESBL producing ability of confirmed multi drug resistant bacteria was performed to detect their ESBL producing ability using specific extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBLs) detection discs of Hexa G-minus 24. Furthermore, the ESBL producing ability of the bacteria was confirmed by ESBLs detection Ezy MIC™ E-test stripe method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS In result, 10, 5 and 4 mm and 10, 14 and 8 mm zone of inhibition against imipenem (IPM), Ticarcillin/Clavulanic acid (TCC), Cefoperazone (CPZ) and Ampicillin (AMP), Norfloxacin (NX), Nalidixic acid (NA) antibiotics for P. aeruginosa and 16, 22 and 10, 18 mm zone of inhibition against ceftazidime (CAZ), methicillin (MET), ampicillin amoxyclav (AMC), co-trimoxazole (COT) of the HX077 HX012 for K. pneumoniae were observed. Based on the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines, both the bacteria were more resistant to tested antibiotics and it could be developed more resistant against all the tested antibiotics. In addition, the phenotypic detection of ESBL production effect was also performed against both the selected uropathogens, and the results were shown ≥22 mm, ≥27 zone of inhibition against all the tested antibiotics. Further, the genetic identification of multi plux PCR result was shown TEM, SHV and CTX-m genes were present in both the selected uropathogens. Finally, our results were correlated each other and concluded that the selected uropathogens were multi drug resistant effect and also ESBLs producer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Worldwide, multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumonia) and their virulence's were contributed more in the multi-drug resistant effect. According to the World Health organization report, it is an emerging thread in developing countries and also comes under first ever critical list. In this context, the current study was concentrated on detection of extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing strain and their antimicrobial susceptibility study of K. pneumoniae. MATERIALS AND METHODS Firstly, the multi-drug resistant effect of the K. pneumoniae was identified from specific CLSI guidelines recommended antibiotics by disc diffusion method. Consecutively, the primary ESBL identification test was performed using ceftazidime and cefotaxime, followed by double disc combination and phenotypic confirmation tests using ceftazidime/clavulanic acid and cefotaxime/clavulanic acid. Finally, the minimum inhibition concentration of some important sensitive antibiotics were performed against selected K. pneumoniae was confirmed by micro broth dilution method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The current result was most favorable to selected K. pneumoniae with more multi drug resistant characteristic nature. All the performed antibiotics were almost more sensitive to selected K. pneumoniae. The effective antibiotics of piperacillin was also exhibited more resistant effect against tested bacteria and it cleaved the bacterial enzyme clearly. The present result of primary ESBL identification test result was exhibited with ≤22 mm and ≤27 mm against ceftazidime and cefotaxime were observed respectively. Followed result of double disc combination and phenotypic confirmation experiments results were clearly stated that the selected K. pneumoniae was ESBL producer. The ceftazidime, cefotaxime and ceftazidime/clavulanic acid and cefotaxime/clavulanic acid were exhibited with merged zones and ≥5 mm zones around the combination disc when compared with disc alone were observed. All the ESBL detection test results were clearly indicated that the selected K. pneumoniae strain was ESBL producer.

Abstract
The multi-drug resistant effect of the Gram negative bacteria K. pneumoniae was identified by disc diffusion method using specific UTI panel discs of Kleb 1 HX077 and Kleb 2 HX090 HEXA. Among the multi-drug resistant bacteria, the carbapenem resistant (CR) effect of the K. pneumoniae was screened by specific carbapenem detection antibiotics of HEXA HX066 and HX0103 HEXA by disc diffusion method. In addition, the effective antibiotics were further performed against K. pneumoniae by minimum inhibition concentration method. Further, the carbapenemase genes of VIM 1 and IMP 1 were detected from the isolated strains by multiplex PCR method. Furthermore, the biofilm forming ability of selected carbapenem resistant K. pneumoniae was initially identified by tissue culture plate method and confirmed by exopolysaccharide arrest ability of congo red agar assay. Finally, our result was proved that the identified K. pneumoniae is carbapenemase producing strain, and its virulence was extended with strong biofilm formation.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to highlight the importance of mutations within Proteus mirabilis genome that are related to fluoroquinolone resistance. Methods: This is a cross sectional study performed in different teaching hospitals in Khartoum State from June 2016 to May 2017. A total of (120) P mirabilis isolates from patients with symptoms of UTIs attending different hospitals in Khartoum State were examined. First, modified Kurby Bauer method was performed for phenotypical detection of resistant isolates. Then polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) followed by sequencing were applied for detection of mutations in GyrA, GyrB, ParC and ParE genes of isolates. Results: P. mirabilis showed 30% resistance to ciprofloxacin. All samples revealed mutation at (serine 83) of GyrA and (serine 84) of ParC by Hinf1 restriction endonuclease digestion. Sequencing was performed for 12 samples. For each gene, two resistant and one susceptible strains were randomly selected. The mutations associated with ciprofloxacin resistant P. mirabilis were as follows; (1/3) GyrA (Ser 83 to Ile) and (2/3) ParC (Ser 81 to Ile). Also it revealed silent mutations at codons of GyrB 474 leucine (3/3), 585 valine (2/3), 612 histidine (1/3) and 639 asparagine (1/3) and ParE 469 isoleucine (2/3), 531 aspartic (2/3) and 533 glycine (1/3). Conclusions: Ciprofloxacin resistance in P. mirabilis could be monitored through detection of mutations within DNA gyrase (encoded by gyrA and gyrB) and topoisomerase IV (encoded by parC and parE).

Abstract
Introduction This study was conducted to identify the hypermucoviscosity, iron acquisition, and capsule serotypes of K. pneumoniae strains isolated from urinary tract infections among community-acquired patients (CA) and assess the frequency of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) and extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) genes between classic and hypervirulent strains. Materials and Methods A total of 105 K. pneumoniae were isolated from CA-UTI. Demographic data related to the underlying diseases and clinical manifestations were further collected. Antibiotic resistance pattern and molecular characterization were compared among ESBL-positive, ESBL-negative, hypervirulent, and classic isolates. Results The results revealed that 52.4% of the isolates were confirmed as ESBL producers and 11 (10.5%) were considered as hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (hvKp). Ciprofloxacin and nalidixic acid were the most inactive antibiotics with resistance rates of 68.6% and 64.8%, respectively. Molecular characterization revealed that 7.6% of all the isolates carried k1 and 66.6% carried K2 genes. The most frequent ESBL gene was blaSHV 63.8%, followed by blaTEM 59.0%, and blaCTX-M 58.1%. ESBL genes were significantly more in hvKp than in cKp. Moreover, 61 (84.7%), 47 (65.2%), and 16 (22.2%) of isolates harbored qnrB, qnrS, and qnrA. ESBL genes were detected in all hvKps, and blaSHV was observed in 90.9% of hvKp (P value= 0.048, 95%). Discussion This study reported the high frequency of antimicrobial and multidrug resistance among hvKp isolates. Coexistence of PMQR and ESBL genes in hvkp indicates the necessity to enhance the clinical knowledge and management of hvKp infections.

Abstract
The synthesis of nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs) and graphene/nickel oxide nanocomposites (Gr/NiO NCs) was performed using a simple chemical reduction method. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to examine the crystalline nature and thermal stability of the synthesized NiO NPs and Gr/NiO NCs, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were utilized to observe the morphology of NiO NPs and Gr/NiO NCs and estimate their size range. TEM suggested that the NiO NPs were speared onto the surface of Gr nanosheet. The efficiency of NiO NPs and Gr/NiO NCs against extended spectrum β-lacamase (ESBL) producing bacteria, which was confirmed by specific HEXA disc Hexa G-minus 24 (HX-096) and MIC strip methods (CLSI); namely Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) was investigated using the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) methods. MIC results suggested that the NiO NPs and Gr/NiO NCs possess maximum growth inhibition of 86%, 82% and 94%, 92% at 50 and 30 μg/mL concentrations, respectively. Similarly, both nanomaterials were found to inhibit the β-lacamase enzyme at concentrations of 60 μg/mL and 40 μg/mL, respectively. The cytotoxicity of NiO NPs and Gr/NiO NCs was quantified against A549 human lung cancer cells. Cell death percentage values of 52% at 50 μg/mL against NiO NPs and 54% at 20 μg/mL against Gr/NiO NCs were obtained, respectively. The NCs were found to reduce cell viability, increase the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and modify both the mitochondrial membrane permeability and cell cycle arrest.

Abstract
The present study was designed to identify the potential bioactive compound from endophytic actinomycetes (EA) Nocardiopsis sp. GRG 2 (KT 235641) against selected extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae). Initially, the multi drug resistance (MDR) effect of selected uropathogens was confirmed by respective UTI panel of Hexa antibiotics disc methods. The zone of inhibition ≤22 mm for ceftazidime, ≤ 27 mm for cefotaxime and ≤8 mm zone of MIC stripe against both the uropathogens of phenotypic methods confirmed, the selected strains were ESBL producer. Among the various EA extracts, GRG 2 extract showed excellent antibacterial activity against both ESBL producing P. aeruginosa and K. pneumonia by agar well diffution method. The molecular identification of selected GRG 2 strain was named as Nocardiopsis sp. GRG 2 (KT235641). The antibacterial metabolites present in the TLC elution was exhibited at 274 nm by UV visible spectrometer. The partial purification of preparative HPLC fraction 3 showed 14, 16 mm against P. aeruginosa and K. pneumoniae, respectively. Based on the antibacterial effect, the FT-IR, GC-MS and LC-MS analysis of fraction 3 was confirmed as 1, 4-diaza-2, 5-dioxo-3-isobutyl bicyclo[4.3.0]nonane (DDIBN). Further, the dose dependent inhibition of DDIBN against both ESBL producing pathogens was observed at 75 μg/mL by minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). The increased cell death and disrupted cell membrane integrity were observed at MIC of DDIBN by confocal laser scanning electron microscope (CLSM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results were proved that the DDIBN has potential antibacterial metabolites against ESBL producing pathogens and it can be applied for various other biomedical fields.
