Abstract
We characterized a collection of IMI-like-producing Enterobacter spp. isolates (n = 112) in France. The main clone corresponded to IMI-1-producing sequence type 820 E. cloacae subspecies cloacae that was involved in an outbreak. Clinicians should be aware of potential antimicrobial resistance among these bacteria.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The ESCPM group (Enterobacter species including Klebsiella aerogenes - formerly Enterobacter aerogenes, Serratia species, Citrobacter freundii complex, Providencia species and Morganella morganii) has not yet been incorporated into systematic surveillance programs. METHODS We conducted a multicentre retrospective observational study analysing all ESCPM strains isolated from blood cultures in 27 European hospitals over a 3-year period (2020-2022). Diagnostic approach, epidemiology, and antimicrobial susceptibility were investigated. RESULTS Our study comprised 6,774 ESCPM isolates. MALDI-TOF coupled to mass spectrometry was the predominant technique for bacterial identification. Susceptibility to new β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations and confirmation of AmpC overproduction were routinely tested in 33.3% and 29.6% of the centres, respectively. The most prevalent species were E. cloacae complex (44.8%) and S. marcescens (22.7%). Overall, third-generation cephalosporins (3GC), combined third- and fourth-generation cephalosporins (3GC + 4GC) and carbapenems resistance phenotypes were observed in 15.7%, 4.6%, and 9.5% of the isolates, respectively. AmpC overproduction was the most prevalent resistance mechanism detected (15.8%). Among carbapenemase-producers, carbapenemase type was provided in 44.4% of the isolates, VIM- (22.9%) and OXA-48-enzyme (16%) being the most frequently detected. E. cloacae complex, K. aerogenes and Providencia species exhibited the most notable cumulative antimicrobial resistance profiles, with the former displaying 3GC, combined 3GC + 4GC and carbapenems resistance phenotypes in 15.2%, 7.4%, and 12.8% of the isolates, respectively. K. aerogenes showed the highest rate of both 3GC resistant phenotype (29.8%) and AmpC overproduction (32.1%), while Providencia species those of both carbapenems resistance phenotype (42.7%) and carbapenemase production (29.4%). ESCPM isolates exhibiting both 3GC and combined 3GC + 4GC resistance phenotypes displayed high susceptibility to ceftazidime/avibactam (98.2% and 95.7%, respectively) and colistin (90.3% and 90.7%, respectively). Colistin emerged as the most active drug against ESCPM species (except those intrinsically resistant) displaying both carbapenems resistance phenotype (85.8%) and carbapenemase production (97.8%). CONCLUSIONS This study presented a current analysis of ESCPM species epidemiology in Europe, providing insights to inform current antibiotic treatments and guide strategies for antimicrobial stewardship and diagnostics.

Abstract
BackgroundFrom 2019 to 2022, the French National Reference Centre for Antibiotic Resistance (NRC) received a total of 25 isolates of Enterobacter hormaechei subsp. hoffmannii sequence type (ST)1740. All produced metallo-β-lactamase(s) and were from the Lyon area.AimTo understand these strains' spread and evolution, more extended microbiological and molecular analyses were conducted.MethodsPatients' demographics and specimen type related to isolates were retrieved. All strains underwent short-read whole genome sequencing, and for 15, long-read sequencing to understand carbapenemase-gene acquisition. Clonal relationships were inferred from core-genome single nt polymorphisms (SNPs). Plasmids and the close genetic environment of each carbapenemase-encoding gene were analysed.ResultsPatients (10 female/15 male) were on average 56.6 years old. Seven isolates were recovered from infections and 18 through screening. With ≤ 27 SNPs difference between each other's genome sequences, the 25 strains represented a clone dissemination. All possessed a chromosome-encoded bla NDM-1 gene inside a composite transposon flanked by two IS3000. While spreading, the clone independently acquired a bla VIM-4-carrying plasmid of IncHI2 type (n = 12 isolates), or a bla IMP-13-carrying plasmid of IncP-1 type (n = 1 isolate). Of the 12 isolates co-producing NDM-1 and VIM-4, seven harboured the colistin resistance gene mcr9.2; the remaining five likely lost this gene through excision.ConclusionThis long-term outbreak was caused by a chromosome-encoded NDM-1-producing ST1740 E. hormaechei subsp. hoffmannii clone, which, during its dissemination, acquired plasmids encoding VIM-4 or IMP-13 metallo-β-lactamases. To our knowledge, IMP-13 has not prior been reported in Enterobacterales in France. Epidemiological and environmental investigations should be considered alongside microbiological and molecular ones.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The emergence of carbapenemase producers in Enterobacterales mostly involves Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterobacter cloacae complex species. However, in France, we observed the emergence and the rapid dissemination of carbapenemase in Citrobacter spp. In this study, we demonstrated that a wide variety of carbapenemases is produced by many different species of Citrobacter spp. However, we clearly identify three high-risk clones of Citrobacter freundii, ST8, ST22, and ST91 that drive the spread of carbapenemase in France. This epidemiological study paves the way of further analysis that would aim to identify the virulence factors involved in this pellicular ability of these three clones to disseminate at the hospital.

Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis 2023; 42:1449-1457.

Abstract
PURPOSE To elucidate the role of the Klebsiella oxytoca species complex (KoSC) in epidemiology of VIM-type MBL-producing Enterobacterales in Poland. METHODS The study comprised all 106 VIM-positive KoSC isolates collected by the Polish National Reference Centre for Susceptibility Testing during 2009-2019 from 60 institutions in 35 towns. All isolates were sequenced by Illumina MiSeq, followed by MinION sequencing of selected organisms. Genomes were subjected to bioinformatic analysis, addressing taxonomy, clonality, phylogeny and structural characterisation of key resistance determinants within their chromosomal and plasmidic loci. RESULTS Among five species identified, K. oxytoca was predominant (n = 92), followed by Klebsiella michiganensis (n = 11). MLST distinguished 18 STs, with the most prevalent Klebsiella oxytoca ST145 (n = 83). The clone segregated a lineage with the In237-like integron [blaVIM-1-aacA4 genes; n = 78], recorded in 28 cities almost all over the country. The integron was located in a ~ 49-50 kb chromosomal mosaic region with multiple other resistance genes, linked to a ~ 51 kb phage-like element. The organism might have originated from Greece, and its evolution in Poland included several events of chromosomal ~ 54-258 kb deletions, comprising the natural β-lactamase blaOXY gene. A group of other isolates of various species and clones (n = 12) carried the integron In916 on self-transmissible IncA-type plasmids, effectively spreading in Italy, France and Poland. CONCLUSION KoSC has been one of the major VIM producers in Poland, owing largely to clonal expansion of the specific K. oxytoca-In237-like lineage. Its apparently enhanced epidemic potential may create a danger on international scale.

Abstract
We sequenced all nonduplicate 934 VIM/IMP carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) reported in Poland during 2006-2019 and found ≈40% of the isolates (n = 375) were Enterobacter spp. During the study period, incidence of those bacteria gradually grew in nearly the entire country. The major factor affecting the increase was clonal spread of several E. hormaechei lineages responsible for multiregional and interregional outbreaks (≈64% of all isolates), representing mainly the pandemic sequence type (ST) 90 or the internationally rare ST89 and ST121 clones. Three main VIM-encoding integron types efficiently disseminated across the clone variants (subclones) with various molecular platforms. Those variants were predominantly Pseudomonas aeruginosa-derived In238-like elements, present with IncHI2+HI2A, IncFII+FIA, IncFIB, or IncN3 plasmids, or chromosomal genomic islands in 30 Enterobacter STs. Another prevalent type, found in 34 STs, were In916-like elements, spreading in Europe recently with a lineage of IncA-like plasmids.

Abstract
Objective To analyze the molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae complex (CREC) by whole-genome sequencing and to explore its clinical characteristics. Methods Enterobacter cloacae complex isolates collected in a tertiary hospital during 2013-2021 were subjected to whole-genome sequencing to determine the distribution of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs), sequence types (STs), and plasmid replicons. A phylogenetic tree of the CREC strains was constructed based on the whole-genome sequences to analyze their relationships. Clinical patient information was collected for risk factor analysis. Results Among the 51 CREC strains collected, blaNDM-1 (n = 42, 82.4%) was the main carbapenem-hydrolyzing β-lactamase (CHβL), followed by blaIMP-4 (n = 11, 21.6%). Several other extended-spectrum β-lactamase-encoding genes were also identified, with blaSHV-12 (n = 30, 58.8%) and blaTEM-1B (n = 24, 47.1%) being the predominant ones. Multi-locus sequence typing revealed 25 distinct STs, and ST418 (n = 12, 23.5%) was the predominant clone. Plasmid analysis identified 15 types of plasmid replicons, among which IncHI2 (n = 33, 64.7%) and IncHI2A (n = 33, 64.7%) were the main ones. Risk factor analysis showed that intensive care unit (ICU) admission, autoimmune disease, pulmonary infection, and previous corticosteroid use within 1 month were major risk factors for acquiring CREC. Logistic regression analysis showed that ICU admission was an independent risk factor for CREC acquisition and was closely related with acquiring infection by CREC with ST418. Conclusion BlaNDM-1 and blaIMP-4 were the predominant carbapenem resistance genes. ST418 carrying BlaNDM-1 not only was the main clone, but also circulated in the ICU of our hospital during 2019-2021, which highlights the necessity for surveillance of this strain in the ICU. Furthermore, patients with risk factors for CREC acquisition, including ICU admission, autoimmune disease, pulmonary infection, and previous corticosteroid use within 1 month, need to be closely monitored for CREC infection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To characterize carbapenemase-producing isolates of the Klebsiella pneumoniae hypervirulent (hvKp) clone ST23 in Poland. METHODS Fifteen K. pneumoniae ST23 isolates were identified by the Polish surveillance of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales. These comprised a cluster with KPC-2 + NDM-1 (n = 7), KPC-2 (n = 1) or NDM-1 (n = 1) enzymes from one hospital from 2018, and sporadic isolates with KPC-2 (n = 1), NDM-1 (n = 1), VIM-1 (n = 1) or OXA-48 (n = 3), recovered from 2009 to 2019 in different towns. The isolates were sequenced by Illumina MiSeq, followed by MinION for six representatives. Clonality, phylogeny, serotypes, virulomes, resistomes and plasmids of the isolates were analysed and compared with international ST23 strains, using various bioinformatic tools. RESULTS Only two diverse isolates with KPC-2 or VIM-1 were of typical hvKp ST23 serotypes K1 and O1v.2, and its predominant phylogenetic clade. These contained multiple chromosomal (ybt, clb) and pK2044/KpVP-1 plasmid (iuc, iro, rmpADC, rmpA2) virulence loci, whereas carbapenemase and other antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes were on single additional plasmids. All remaining isolates were of K57 and O2v.2 serotypes, and a minor, distant clade of unclear phylogeny, including also ∼10 isolates from other European countries. These had fewer virulence loci (ybt, iuc, rmpADC, rmpA2) but abounded in plasmids, which with several chromosomal AMR mutations conferred more extensive MDR phenotypes than in K1 O1v.2. Lower clonal diversity than in K1, and numerous common characteristics of the isolates supported the hypothesis of the emerging character of the ST23 K57 clade. CONCLUSIONS A new MDR ST23 lineage has emerged in Europe, causing a potential threat to public health.

Novel insights related to the rise of KPC-producing Enterobacter cloacae complex strains within the nosocomial niche. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2022; 12:951049.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) belong to the highest priority group for the development of new antibiotics. Argentina-WHONET data showed that Gram-negative resistance frequencies to imipenem have been increasing since 2010 mostly in two CRE bacteria: Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae Complex (ECC). This scenario is mirrored in our hospital. It is known that K. pneumoniae and the ECC coexist in the human body, but little is known about the outcome of these species producing KPC, and colonizing or infecting a patient. We aimed to contribute to the understanding of the rise of the ECC in Argentina, taking as a biological model both a patient colonized with two KPC-producing strains (one Enterobacter hormaechei and one K. pneumoniae) and in vitro competition assays with prevalent KPC-producing ECC (KPC-ECC) versus KPC-producing K. pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) high-risk clones from our institution. A KPC-producing E. hormaechei and later a KPC-Kp strain that colonized a patient shared an identical novel conjugative IncM1 plasmid harboring blaKPC-2. In addition, a total of 19 KPC-ECC and 58 KPC-Kp strains isolated from nosocomial infections revealed that high-risk clones KPC-ECC ST66 and ST78 as well as KPC-Kp ST11 and ST258 were prevalent and selected for competition assays. The competition assays with KCP-ECC ST45, ST66, and ST78 versus KPC-Kp ST11, ST18, and ST258 strains analyzed here showed no statistically significant difference. These assays evidenced that high-risk clones of KPC-ECC and KPC-Kp can coexist in the same hospital environment including the same patient, which explains from an ecological point of view that both species can exchange and share plasmids. These findings offer hints to explain the worldwide rise of KPC-ECC strains based on the ability of some pandemic clones to compete and occupy a certain niche. Taken together, the presence of the same new plasmid and the fitness results that showed that both strains can coexist within the same patient suggest that horizontal genetic transfer of blaKPC-2 within the patient cannot be ruled out. These findings highlight the constant interaction that these two species can keep in the hospital environment, which, in turn, can be related to the spread of KPC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the characteristics of global β-lactamase-producing Enterobacter cloacae including the distribution of β-lactamase, sequence types (STs) as well as plasmid replicons. METHODS All the genomes of the E. cloacae were downloaded from GenBank. The distribution of β-lactamase encoding genes were investigated by genome annotation after the genome quality was checked. The STs of these strains were analyzed by multi-locus sequence typing (MLST). The distribution of plasmid replicons was further explored by submitting these genomes to the genome epidemiology center. The isolation information of these strains was extracted by Per program from GenBank. RESULTS A total of 272 out of 276 strains were found to carry β-lactamase encoding genes. Among them, 23 varieties of β-lactamase were identified, blaCMH (n = 130, 47.8%) and blaACT (n = 126, 46.3%) were the most predominant ones, 9 genotypes of carbapenem-hydrolyzing β-lactamase (CHβLs) were identified with blaVIM (n = 29, 10.7%) and blaKPC (n = 24, 8.9%) being the most dominant ones. In addition, 115 distinct STs for the 272 ß-lactamase-carrying E. cloacae and 48 different STs for 106 CHβLs-producing E. cloacae were detected. ST873 (n = 27, 9.9%) was the most common ST. Furthermore, 25 different plasmid replicons were identified, IncHI2 (n = 65, 23.9%), IncHI2A (n = 64, 23.5%) and IncFII (n = 62, 22.8%) were the most common ones. Notably, the distribution of plasmid replicons IncHI2 and IncHI2A among CHβLs-producing strains were significantly higher than theat among non-CHβLs-producing strains (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Almost all the E. cloacae contained β-lactamase encoding gene. Among the global E. cloacae, blaCMH and blaACT were main blaAmpC genes. BlaTEM and blaCTX-M were the predominant ESBLs. BlaKPC, blaVIM and blaNDM were the major CHβLs. Additionally, diversely distinct STs and different replicons were identified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the fact that carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) mostly cause urinary tract infections (UTIs), only few studies have focused on the efficacity of mecillinam against these CRE. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the mecillinam susceptibility of a huge collection of CRE, including carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) and non-CPE (ESBL and AmpC producers with decreased permeability of the outer membrane). METHODS A total of 8310 non-duplicate clinical CRE, including 4042 OXA-48-like producers, 1094 NDM producers, 411 VIM producers, 174 KPC producers, 42 IMI producers, 153 multiple-carbapenemase producers and 45 isolates producing other types of carbapenemases (such as IMP-like enzymes or GES-5), were included in the study. WGS was performed on all CPE using Illumina technology. Categorization of susceptibility to mecillinam was performed using disc diffusion (mecillinam discs at 10 μg; I2A, France) according to EUCAST recommendations. The results were interpreted according to EUCAST guidelines (S ≥15 mm). RESULTS Significantly higher susceptibility rates were observed for carbapenem-resistant Proteus spp. (85%) and carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli (84%), which are the two most common species responsible for UTIs, than for Klebsiella pneumoniae (67%), Enterobacter cloacae complex (75%), Citrobacter spp. (65%), Serratia spp. (34%) and Morganella morganii (12%). Susceptibility rates were 84%, 71% and 91% for OXA-48-like, NDM and IMI producers and 70% for non-CPE CRE. Mecillinam was less active against VIM and KPC producers (14% and 0%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Mecillinam might be an alternative for the treatment of infections due to CRE, particularly UTIs, except for VIM and KPC producers and for M. morganii and Serratia spp species.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacter hormaechei Carrying qnrS Gene Isolated from Chicken Feed in China. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0251821. [PMID: 35467399 PMCID: PMC9241693 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02518-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 03/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) in Enterobacteriaceae including resistance to quinolones is rising worldwide. The plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) gene qnrS is prevalent in Enterobacteriaceae. However, the qnrS gene is rarely found in Enterobacter hormaechei (E. hormaechei). Here, we reported one multidrug resistant E. hormaechei strain M1 carrying the qnrS1 and blaTEM-1 genes. This study was to analyze the characteristics of MDR E. hormaechei strain M1. The E. hormaechei strain M1 was identified as Enterobacter cloacae complex by biochemical assay and 16S rRNA sequencing. The whole genome was sequenced by the Oxford Nanopore method. Taxonomy of the E. hormaechei was based on multilocus sequence typing (MLST). The qnrS with the other antibiotic resistance genes were coexisted on IncF plasmid (pM1). Besides, the virulence factors associated with pathogenicity were also located on pM1. The qnrS1 gene was located between insertion element IS2A (upstream) and transposition element ISKra4 (downstream). The comparison result of IncF plasmids revealed that they had a common plasmid backbone. Susceptibility experiment revealed that the E. hormaechei M1 showed extensive resistance to the clinical antimicrobials. The conjugation transfer was performed by filter membrane incubation method. The competition and plasmid stability assays suggested the host bacteria carrying qnrS had an energy burden. As far as we know, this is the first report that E. hormaechei carrying qnrS was isolated from chicken feed. The chicken feed and poultry products could serve as a vehicle for these MDR bacteria, which could transfer between animals and humans through the food chain. We need to pay close attention to the epidemiology of E. hormaechei and prevent their further dissemination. IMPORTANCE Enterobacter hormaechei is an opportunistic pathogen. It can cause infections in humans and animals. Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) gene qnrS can be transferred intergenus, which is leading to increase the quinolone resistance levels in Enterobacteriaceae. Chicken feed could serve as a vehicle for the MDR E. hormaechei. Therefore, antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) might be transferred to the intestinal flora after entering the gastrointestinal tract with the feed. Furthermore, antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) were also excreted into environment with feces, posing a huge threat to public health. This requires us to monitor the ARB and antibiotic-resistant plasmids in the feed. Here, we demonstrated the characteristics of one MDR E. hormaechei isolate from chicken feed. The plasmid carrying the qnrS gene is a conjugative plasmid with transferability. The presence of plasmid carrying antibiotic-resistance genes requires the maintenance of antibiotic pressure. In addition, the E. hormaechei M1 belonged to new sequence type (ST). These data show the MDR E. hormaechei M1 is a novel strain that requires our further research.
