Clinical characteristics and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of Mycobacterium abscessus and Mycobacterium massiliense pulmonary infection. J Glob Antimicrob Resist 2024; 38:83-89. [PMID: 38719186 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgar.2024.04.004] [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: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABC) is the most common rapidly growing Mycobacterium species in structural pulmonary diseases and can be life-threatening. This study aimed to assess the clinical characteristics and drug-susceptibility statuses of different M. abscessus (MAB) subspecies in the Zhejiang Province. METHODS DNA sequencing was used to differentiate clinical MABC subspecies isolates. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines were used to determine in vitro susceptibility of imipenem-relebactam (IMP-REL), omadacycline, and other conventional antibiotics. Patient clinical characteristics were collected and analysed. RESULTS In total, 139 M. abscessus, 39 Mycobacterium massiliense, and 1 Mycobacterium bolletii isolates were collected, accounting for 77.7%, 21.8%, and 0.5% of the MABC isolates, respectively. Patients with M. abscessus pulmonary disease (M.ab-PD) had higher proportions of older adults, tuberculosis history, chronic pulmonary disease, and malignancy than those with M. massiliense pulmonary disease (M.ma-PD). Patients with M.ab-PD had higher rates of bilateral middle- and lower-lobe involvement than patients with M.ma-PD. Both subspecies showed high resistance rates to doxycycline and moxifloxacin, and clarithromycin-induced resistance was more common in M.ab than in M.ma. IMP-REL resulted in a twofold reduction in the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value compared with imipenem alone among MAB; furthermore, the MIC was lower in M.ab than in M.ma. Omadacycline and tigecycline had comparable in vitro susceptibility, and the MIC showed no statistically significant difference between M.ab and M.ma. CONCLUSIONS M.ab is the most prevalent MABC subspecies in the Zhejiang Province. Patients with M.ab-PD have complex underlying diseases and broader lobar lesions. IMP-REL and omadacycline are promising antibiotics for MABC infection treatment.

Third-Generation Tetracyclines: Current Knowledge and Therapeutic Potential. Biomolecules 2024; 14:783. [PMID: 39062497 PMCID: PMC11275049 DOI: 10.3390/biom14070783] [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: 05/26/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Tetracyclines constitute a unique class of antibiotic agents, widely prescribed for both community and hospital infections due to their broad spectrum of activity. Acting by disrupting protein synthesis through tight binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit, their interference is typically reversible, rendering them bacteriostatic in action. Resistance to tetracyclines has primarily been associated with changes in pump efflux or ribosomal protection mechanisms. To address this challenge, tetracycline molecules have been chemically modified, resulting in the development of third-generation tetracyclines. These novel tetracyclines offer significant advantages in treating infections, whether used alone or in combination therapies, especially in hospital settings. Beyond their conventional antimicrobial properties, research has highlighted their potential non-antibiotic properties, including their impact on immunomodulation and malignancy. This review will focus on third-generation tetracyclines, namely tigecycline, eravacycline, and omadacycline. We will delve into their mechanisms of action and resistance, while also evaluating their pros and cons over time. Additionally, we will explore their therapeutic potential, analyzing their primary indications of prescription, potential future uses, and non-antibiotic features. This review aims to provide valuable insights into the clinical applications of third-generation tetracyclines, thereby enhancing understanding and guiding optimal clinical use.

Abstract
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) can cause a variety of infections, including serious pulmonary disease. Treatment encompasses polypharmacy, with a targeted regimen of 2-5 active medications, depending on site of infection, species, and clinical characteristics. Medications may include oral, intravenous, and inhalational routes. Medication acquisition can be challenging for numerous reasons, including investigational status, limited distribution models, and insurance prior authorization. Additionally, monitoring and managing adverse reactions and drug interactions is a unique skill set. While NTM is primarily medically managed, clinicians may not be familiar with the intricacies of medication selection, procurement, and monitoring. This review offers insights into the pharmacotherapeutic considerations of this highly complex disease state, including regimen design, medication acquisition, safety monitoring, relevant drug-drug interactions, and adverse drug reactions.

Abstract
Mycobacterium abscessus, a leading cause of severe lung infections in immunocompromised individuals, poses significant challenges for current therapeutic strategies due to resistance mechanisms. Therefore, understanding the intrinsic and acquired antibiotic resistance of M. abscessus is crucial for effective treatment. This review highlights the mechanisms employed by M. abscessus to sustain antibiotic resistance, encompassing not only conventional drugs but also newly discovered drug candidates. This comprehensive analysis aims to identify novel entities capable of overcoming the notorious resistance exhibited by M. abscessus, providing insights for the development of more effective therapeutic interventions.
