[PMID: 36355902 PMCID: PMC9692495 DOI: 10.3390/tropicalmed7110360] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Revised: 11/04/2022] [Accepted: 11/07/2022] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
UNLABELLED 1. BACKGROUND Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a common organism seen in both healthcare-associated and community-associated infections worldwide and in Malaysia over the past two decades. The aim of this review is to provide a firsthand documentation of all MRSA strains prevalent in the Malaysian population from 2002 to present and briefly describe the changing patterns. 2. METHODS Electronic and manual intensive literature searches were conducted between 2002 and 2020, addressing issues directly related to patients and published in the English language were selected. 3. RESULTS The literature search retrieved a total of 2217 articles and abstracts of 27 articles. The search yielded a total of 24 articles on genotyping of MRSA in Malaysia. The study found that MRSA strains were mostly genetically related and resulted in the predominant MRSA clones that caused active infections. Thirty-six different sequence types (ST) were recorded. The highest rates of STs detected were ST239 (52.6%), ST1 (47.4%), and ST22 (42.1%). The majority of studies showed that both SCCmec types III and IV were the most common SCCm type in Malaysia, followed by SCCmec type V (57.9%). 4. CONCLUSIONS Both Brazilian (ST 239 IIIA) and Hungarian (ST 239-III) MRSA strains were detected in Malaysia. PFGE remains the best method for comparing MRSA strains. However, whole-genome sequencing has a promising chance to replace PFGE in the future.

Sun Y, Wang X, Gong Q, Li J, Huang H, Xue F, Dai J, Tang F. Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli Utilizes Surface-Located Elongation Factor G to Acquire Iron from Holo-Transferrin. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0166221. [PMID: 35477220 PMCID: PMC9045202 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01662-21] [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: 09/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) can cause systemic infections in both humans and animals. As an essential nutrient, iron is strictly sequestered by the host. Circumventing iron sequestration is a determinant factor for ExPEC infection. However, the ExPEC iron acquisition mechanism, particularly the mechanism of transferrin (TF) acquisition, remains unclear. This study reports that iron-saturated holo-TF can be utilized by ExPEC to promote its growth in culture medium and survival in macrophages. ExPEC specifically bound to holo-TF instead of iron-free apo-TF via the surface located elongation factor G (EFG) in both culture medium and macrophages. As a moonlighting protein, EFG specifically bound holo-TF and also released iron in TF. These two functions were performed by different domains of EFG, in which the N-terminal domains were responsible for holo-TF binding and the C-terminal domains were responsible for iron release. The functions of EFG and its domains have also been further confirmed by surface-display vectors. The surface overexpression of EFG bound significantly more holo-TF in macrophages and significantly improved bacterial intracellular survival ability. Our findings reveal a novel iron acquisition mechanism involving EFG, which suggests novel research avenues into the molecular mechanism of ExPEC resistance to nutritional immunity. IMPORTANCE Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) is an important pathogen causing systemic infections in humans and animals. The competition for iron between ExPEC and the host is a determinant for ExPEC to establish a successful infection. Here, we sought to elucidate the role of transferrin (TF) in the interaction between ExPEC and the host. Our results revealed that holo-TF could be utilized by ExPEC to enhance its growth in culture medium and survival in macrophages. Furthermore, the role of elongation factor G (EFG), a novel holo-TF-binding and TF-iron release protein, was confirmed in this study. Our work provides insights into the iron acquisition mechanism of ExPEC, deepens understanding of the interaction between holo-TF and pathogens, and broadens further researches into the molecular mechanism of ExPEC pathogenicity.

Molecular Characterization of Rifampicin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Retail Foods in China. Antibiotics (Basel) 2021; 10:antibiotics10121487. [PMID: 34943699 PMCID: PMC8698944 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics10121487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the molecular characteristics of rifampin-resistant (RIF-R) Staphylococcus aureus isolates recovered from 4300 retail food samples covering most provincial capitals in China, from 2011 to 2016. Of the 1463 S. aureus enrolled, 149 isolates (142 MSSA and 7 MRSA) were identified as rifampicin-resistant, including 20 high-level (MICs ≥ 8 μg/mL) and 129 low-level (MICs between 2 and 4 μg/mL) rifampicin-resistant strains. Most of the RIF-R S. aureus isolates were resistant to more than three antibiotics. The mutations in the rifampicin resistance-determining region of the rpoB gene were studied in all RIF-R strains. All of the strains presented the mutational change 481 His/Asn and five isolates presented an additional mutation, including 477 Asp/Tyr, 527 Ile/Met, and 466 Leu/Ser, respectively. Thirteen STs and twenty-one spa types were represented, in which five MRSA showed non-type SCCmec and the remaining MRSA belonged to SCCmec type IV-where, ST1-t127 was the predominant type from all of the isolates, while ST398-t034 was the predominant type for the MRSA isolates. In this study, we found that the food-related RIF-R S. aureus may have a unique genetic background selection. However, the scenario regarding the presence of RIF-R S. aureus, especially MRSA, in retail food in China is not favorable and warrants public attention.

Abstract
Background Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a major contributor to nosocomial and community-acquired infections. S. aureus small colony variants (SCVs) which changed in relevant phenotype have made more limited and difficult for therapeutic options against S. aureus infections increasingly. Rifampicin is considered as the "last-resort" antibiotic against S. aureus. Our study investigated resistance profiles and biological characteristics of rifampicin-resistant S. aureus SCVs. Methods We collected S. aureus SCVs that were selected from 41 rifampicin-resistant clinical isolates. Then, biological characteristics, resistance spectrum, and rifampicin resistance mechanisms of tested S. aureus SCVs and corresponding parental strains were investigated by classic microbiological methods, agar dilution method, polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Moreover, the fitness cost of S. aureus SCVs, including growth, biofilm formation ability, and virulence profile, was also determined by bacterial growth curve assay, biofilm formation assay, and Galleria mellonella infection model. Results There were three S. aureus SCVs (JP310 SCVs, JP1450 SCVs, JP1486 SCVs) that were selected from 41 rifampicin-resistant S. aureus. S. aureus SCVs colonies were tiny, with decreased pigmentation, and the hemolysis circle was not obvious compared with corresponding parental strains. And SCVs could not be restored to normal-colony phenotype after hemin, menaquinone, or thymidine supplementation. Different rpoB mutations occurred in JP1486 SCVs. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed MICs of SCVs were higher than corresponding parental strains. Besides, the growth ability and virulence of SCVs were lower, and biofilm formation ability of which increased compared with parental strains. Conclusion S. aureus SCVs share the rifampicin resistance mechanisms with parental strains, although there were some differences in the position of rpoB mutations. Moreover, we found that the biological characteristics of SCVs were significantly different from corresponding parental strains. In contrast, decreased susceptibility to other antibiotics of SCVs was observed during phenotype switch. Furthermore, SCVs incur the fitness cost.

Med Princ Pract 2021; 30:542-549. [PMID: 34348297 PMCID: PMC8740012 DOI: 10.1159/000518408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 07/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic determinants of fusidic acid (FA) resistance in MRSA isolated from patients in Kuwait hospitals. METHODS The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of FA was tested with E-test strips. Genetic determinants of FA were determined by PCR and DNA microarray. Staphylococcal protein A gene (spa) typing and DNA microarray analysis were used to study their genetic backgrounds. RESULTS The FA MIC ranged from 2 mg/L to >256 mg/L. Of the 97 isolates, 79 (81.4%) harbored fusC, 14 isolates harbored fusA mutations (fusA), and 4 isolates harbored fusB. Isolates with fusA mutations expressed high FA MIC (MIC >256 mg/L), whereas those with fusC and fusB expressed low FA MIC (MIC 2-16 mg/L). The isolates belonged to 23 spa types and 12 clonal complexes (CCs). The major spa types were t688 (n = 25), t311 (n = 14), t860 (n = 8), and t127 (n = 6) which constituted 54.6% of the isolates. The 12 CCs were CC1, CC5, CC8, CC15, CC22, CC80, CC88, and CC97 with CC5 (45.6%) and CC97 (13.2%) as the dominant CCs. CONCLUSIONS The MRSA isolates belonged to diverse genetic backgrounds with the majority carrying the fusC resistance determinants. The high prevalence of FA resistance belonging to diverse genetic backgrounds warrants a review of FA usage in the country to preserve its therapeutic benefits.

Emergence of a dalbavancin induced glycopeptide/lipoglycopeptide non-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus during treatment of a cardiac device-related endocarditis. Emerg Microbes Infect 2018; 7:202.

Abstract
In the present study, we demonstrated the emergence of dalbavancin non-susceptible and teicoplanin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus small colony variants which were selected in vivo through long-term treatment with dalbavancin. A 36-year-old man presented with a cardiac device-related S. aureus endocarditis and received long-term therapy with dalbavancin. Consecutively, two glycopeptide/lipoglycopeptide susceptible and two non-susceptible S. aureus isolates were obtained from blood cultures and the explanted pacemaker wire. The isolates were characterized by: standard typing methods, antimicrobial susceptibility testing, auxotrophic profiling, proliferation assays, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, as well as whole genome sequencing. The isolated SCVs demonstrated a vancomycin-susceptible but dalbavancin non-susceptible and teicoplanin-resistant phenotype whereof the respective MICs of the last isolate were 16- and 84-fold higher than the susceptible strains. All four strains were indistinguishable or at least closely related by standard typing methods (spa, MLST, and PFGE), and whole genome sequencing revealed only eight sequence variants. A consecutive increase in cell wall thickness (up to 2.1-fold), an impaired cell separation with incomplete or multiple cross walls and significantly reduced growth rates were observed in the present study. Therefore, the mutations in pbp2 and the DHH domain of GdpP were identified as the most probable candidates due to their implication in the biosynthesis and metabolism of the staphylococcal cell wall. For the first time, we demonstrated in vivo induced dalbavancin non-susceptible/teicoplanin resistant, but vancomycin and daptomycin susceptible S. aureus SCVs without lipopeptide or glycopeptide pretreatment, thus, indicating the emergence of a novel lipoglycopeptide resistance mechanism.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to assess the relatedness of molecular types of Staphylococcus aureus isolates colonizing cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with their antimicrobial resistance and prevalence of toxin genes. Methods A total of 215 isolates from the airways of 107 patients with CF were tested for spa and SCCmec type, antimicrobial resistance and carriage of toxin genes. Results t015, t084, t091, t700 and t002 were the largest group (approximately 25%) among all 69 identified spa types. Five new spa types, t14286, t14287, t14288, t14289 and t14290, were identified and registered. Isolates from CF patients were clustered into 11 multi-locus sequence typing clonal complexes, with CC30, CC22, CC97, CC45, CC15 and CC5 being the most frequent ones. Twelve (5.6%) methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolates and 102 (47.7%) multidrug-resistant isolates were identified, along with three SCCmec types (I, III and V). All isolates (both MRSA and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus) were Panton–Valentine leucocidin-negative, and 56.7% harbored egc genes. This was the first study documenting the presence of ST398-V-t571 livestock-associated MRSA in a European patient with CF. Conclusion These findings imply that individuals with CF can also be colonized with animal-related ST398 MRSA, and justify constant monitoring of staphylococcal colonization and identification of epidemic S. aureus clones in this group.

Abstract
As an increasingly common cause of skin infections worldwide, the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) across China has not been well documented. This literature aims to study the resistance profile to commonly used antibiotics, including macrolides, fusidic acid (FA) and mupirocin, and its relationship to the genetic typing in 34 S. aureus strains, including 6 methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), isolated from a Chinese hospital. The MIC results showed 27 (79.4%), 1 (2.9%) and 6 (17.6%) isolates were resistant to macrolides, FA and mupirocin, respectively. Among 27 macrolide-resistant S. aureus isolates, 5 (18.5%) were also resistant to mupirocin and 1 (3.7%) to FA. A total of 13 available resistant genes were analyzed in 28 antibiotic-resistant strains using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The positive rates of macrolide-resistant ermA, ermB, ermC, erm33 and low level mupirocin-resistant ileS mutations were 11.1%, 25.9%, 51.9%, 7.4% and 100%, respectively. Other determinants for FA- and high level mupirocin-resistance were not found. The results of multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) revealed 13 sequence types (STs) and 18 clusters in 23 resistant gene positive S. aureus isolates. Among these STs, ST5 was most prevalent, accounting for 18.2%. Notably, various clusters were found with similar resistance phenotype and genotype, exhibiting a weak genetic relatedness and high genetic heterogeneities. In conclusion, macrolides, especially erythromycin, are not appropriate to treat skin infections caused by S. aureus, and more effective measures are required to reduce the dissemination of macrolides, FA and mupirocin resistance of the pathogen.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus is one of the main etiologies of bone and device-related infections. Treatment of these orthopedic infections combines mostly rifampicin with other antibiotics. The recurrence or failure rate after fusidic acid/rifampicin treatment remains low (<10%). We discuss here a case of antibiotic treatment failure for Staphylococcus aureus bone infection with in vivo selection of rifampicin and fusidic acid resistance. We also report a new mutation in fusA gene involved in fusidic acid resistance.
