Abstract
A recognition motif is vital in determining the specificity and sensitivity of the fluorescence polarization assay (FPA) for detecting chemical contaminants in food. Four candidates (Gyrase, GyrBA, TopIV, and QepA) were prepared for this study. The applicability of QepA was confirmed through DNA cleavage assay, inhibition effects, and mechanism investigations using molecular docking, compared to other counterparts. Finally, a novel FPA based on QepA and a CIP-FITC tracer for the detection of fluoroquinolones (FQs) in eggs was developed. The limits of detection (LODs) for eight fluoroquinolones ranged from 2.2 to 5.1 ng g-1, with enrofloxacin, danofloxacin, and difloxacin meeting the maximum residue limits (MRLs). The spiked recoveries ranged from 65.8 to 103.6% with coefficients of variation (CVs) of 5.4-12.8%. Therefore, a new recognition motif for FQs that did not belong to conventional antibodies was identified, and QepA-based FPA could be a potential tool for rapid, homogeneous, and sensitive monitoring of the residue of FQs in eggs.

Fructose-enabled killing of antibiotic-resistant Salmonella enteritidis by gentamicin: Insight from reprogramming metabolomics. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2023; 62:106907. [PMID: 37385564 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2023.106907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/01/2023]
Abstract
Salmonella enterica is a food-borne pathogen that poses a severe threat to both poultry production and human health. Antibiotics are critical for the initial treatment of bacterial infections. However, the overuse and misuse of antibiotics results in the rapid evolution of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and the discovery and development of new antibiotics are declining. Therefore, understanding antibiotic resistance mechanisms and developing novel control measures are essential. In the present study, GC-MS-based metabolomics analysis was performed to determine the metabolic profile of gentamicin sensitive (SE-S) and resistant (SE-R) S. enterica. Fructose was identified as a crucial biomarker. Further analysis demonstrated a global depressed central carbon metabolism and energy metabolism in SE-R. The decrease in the pyruvate cycle reduces the production of NADH and ATP, causing a decrease in membrane potential, which contributes to gentamicin resistance. Exogenous fructose potentiated the effectiveness of gentamicin in killing SE-R by promoting the pyruvate cycle, NADH, ATP and membrane potential, thereby increasing gentamicin intake. Further, fructose plus gentamicin improved the survival rate of chicken infected with gentamicin-resistant Salmonella in vivo. Given that metabolite structures are conserved across species, fructose identified from bacteria could be used as a biomarker for breeding disease-resistant phenotypes in chicken. Therefore, a novel strategy is proposed for fighting against antibiotic-resistant S. enterica, including exploring molecules suppressed by antibiotics and providing a new approach to find pathogen targets for disease resistance in chicken breeding.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the transmission and molecular epidemiological characteristics of the rmtB gene in Escherichia coli (E. coli) strains isolated from duck farms in Guangdong Province of China from 2018 to 2021. A total of 164 (19.4%, 164/844) rmtB-positive E. coli strains were recovered from feces, viscera, and environment. We performed antibiotic susceptibility tests, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), and conjugation experiments. We obtained the genetic context of 46 rmtB-carrying E. coli isolates and constructed a phylogenetic tree via whole genome sequencing (WGS) and bioinformatic analysis. The isolation rate of rmtB-carrying E. coli isolates in duck farms increased yearly from 2018 to 2020 but decreased in 2021. All rmtB-harboring E. coli strains were multidrug resistant (MDR), and 99.4% of the strains were resistant to more than 10 drugs. Surprisingly, duck- and environment-associated strains similarly showed high MDR. Conjugation experiments revealed that the rmtB gene horizontally cocarried blaCTX-M and blaTEM gene dissemination via IncFII plasmids. Insertion sequences IS26, ISCR1, and ISCR3 were closely associated with the spread of rmtB-harboring E. coli isolates. WGS analysis indicated that ST48 was the most prevalent sequence type. The results of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) differences revealed potential clonal transmission between ducks and the environment. Based on One Health principles, we need to strictly use veterinary antibiotics, monitor the distribution of MDR strains, and evaluate the impact of plasmid-mediated rmtB gene on human, animal, and environmental health.

Abstract
The plasmid-borne fosfomycin resistance gene fosA3 has been identified in Escherichia coli (E. coli) from various animals but has rarely been reported in ducks. In this study, we investigated the fosA3 prevalence and molecular characteristics of fosA3-harboring E. coli strains from ducks in Shandong province of China. In 416 E. coli isolates, 91 (21.88%) were identified as fosA3-bearing strains, and the fosfomycin-resistant phenotype of 88 of the 91 fosA3-harboring strains was successfully transferred to the recipient strains. Seven different genetic structures surrounding the fosA3 gene were detected and 2 new contexts were discovered among the fosA3-carrying E. coli. Twenty fosA3-harboring isolates and their trans-conjugants were randomly selected for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) typing and S1-nuclease PFGE, respectively. The PFGE patterns revealed that the 20 randomly selected fosA3-bearing isolates were not a result of clonal dissemination. S1-PFGE showed that 15 of the 20 randomly selected trans-conjugants carried a single plasmid, and these 15 plasmids that harbored fosA3 (55-190 kb) were distributed into the following replicon types: IncF (n = 11), IncI1 (n = 1), IncN (n = 1), untypable (n = 1), and W-FIC (n = 1). Additionally, as vectors for fosA3 in E. coli, F-:A1:B6, N/ST1, IncI1/ST2, W-FIC, and one untypable plasmid had never been reported before. These observations highlighted the importance of ducks as a reservoir for multidrug-resistant fosA3-carrying E. coli.

Genomic characterization of 16S rRNA methyltransferase-producing Escherichia coli isolates from the Parisian area, France. J Antimicrob Chemother 2021; 75:1726-1735. [PMID: 32300786 DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkaa105] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2019] [Revised: 01/15/2020] [Accepted: 02/27/2020] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The resistance to all aminoglycosides (AGs) conferred by 16S rRNA methyltransferase enzymes (16S-RMTases) is a major public health concern. OBJECTIVES To characterize the resistance genotype, its genetic environment and plasmid support, and the phylogenetic relatedness of 16S-RMTase-producing Escherichia coli from France. METHODS We screened 137 E. coli isolates resistant to all clinically relevant AGs from nine Parisian hospitals for 16S-RMTases. WGS was performed on clinical isolates with high-level AG resistance (MIC ≥256 mg/L) and their transformants. RESULTS Thirty of the 137 AG-resistant E. coli produced 16S-RMTases: 11 ArmA, 18 RmtB and 1 RmtC. The 16S-RMTase producers were also resistant to third-generation cephalosporins (90% due to a blaCTX-M gene), co-trimoxazole, fluoroquinolones and carbapenems (blaNDM and blaVIM genes) in 97%, 83%, 70% and 10% of cases, respectively. Phylogenomic diversity was high in ArmA producers, with 10 different STs, but a similar genetic environment, with the Tn1548 transposon carried by a plasmid closely related to pCTX-M-3 in 6/11 isolates. Conversely, RmtB producers belonged to 12 STs, the most frequent being ST405 and ST complex (STc) 10 (four and four isolates, respectively). The rmtB gene was carried by IncF plasmids in 10 isolates and was found in different genetic environments. The rmtC gene was carried by the pNDM-US plasmid. CONCLUSIONS ArmA and RmtB are the predominant 16S-RMTases in France, but their spread follows two different patterns: (i) dissemination of a conserved genetic support carrying armA in E. coli with high levels of genomic diversity; and (ii) various genetic environments surrounding rmtB in clonally related E. coli.

High-Level Aminoglycoside Resistance in Human Clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae Complex Isolates and Characteristics of armA-Carrying IncHI5 Plasmids. Front Microbiol 2021; 12:636396.

Abstract
Aminoglycosides are important options for treating life-threatening infections. However, high levels of aminoglycoside resistance (HLAR) among Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates have been observed to be increasing frequently. In this study, a total of 292 isolates of the K. pneumoniae complex from a teaching hospital in China were analyzed. Among these isolates, the percentage of HLAR strains was 13.7% (40/292), and 15 aminoglycoside resistance genes were identified among the HLAR strains, with rmtB being the most dominant resistance gene (70%, 28/40). We also described an armA-carrying Klebsiella variicola strain KP2757 that exhibited a high-level resistance to all aminoglycosides tested. Whole-genome sequencing of KP2757 demonstrated that the strain contained one chromosome and three plasmids, with all the aminoglycoside resistance genes (including two copies of armA and six AME genes) being located on a conjugative plasmid, p2757-346, belonging to type IncHI5. Comparative genomic analysis of eight IncHI5 plasmids showed that six of them carried two copies of the intact armA gene in the complete or truncated Tn1548 transposon. To the best of our knowledge, for the first time, we observed that two copies of armA together with six AME genes coexisted on the same plasmid in a strain of K. variicola with HLAR. Comparative genomic analysis of eight armA-carrying IncHI5 plasmids isolated from humans and sediment was performed, suggesting the potential for dissemination of these plasmids among bacteria from different sources. These results demonstrated the necessity of monitoring the prevalence of IncHI5 plasmids to restrict their worldwide dissemination.

Abstract
Escherichia coli is zoonotic bacteria and the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant strains becomes a critical issue in both human and animal health globally. This study was therefore aimed to investigate the plasmid-mediated resistance in E. coli strains isolated from healthy and diarrheic sheep and goats. A total of 234 fecal samples were obtained from 157 sheep (99 healthy and 58 diarrheic) and 77 goats (32 healthy and 45 diarrheic) for the isolation and identification of E. coli. Plasmid DNA was extracted using the alkaline lysis method. Phenotypic antibiotic susceptibility profiles were determined against the three classes of antimicrobials, which resistance is mediated by plasmids (Cephalosporins, Fluoroquinolone, and Aminoglycosides) using the disc-diffusion method. The frequency of plasmid-mediated resistance genes was investigated by PCR. A total of 159 E. coli strains harbored plasmids. The isolates antibiogram showed different patterns of resistance in both healthy and diarrheic animals. A total of (82; 51.5%) E. coli strains were multidrug-resistant. rmtB gene was detected in all Aminoglycoside-resistant E. coli, and the ESBL-producing E. coli possessed different CTX-M genes. Similarly, fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli possessed different qnr genes. On the analysis of the gyrB gene sequence of fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli, multiple point mutations were revealed. In conclusion, a high prevalence of E. coli with high resistance patterns to antimicrobials was revealed in the current study, in addition to a wide distribution of their resistance determinants. These findings highlight the importance of sheep and goats as reservoirs for the dissemination of MDR E. coli and resistance gene horizontal transfer.

Abstract
This study aims at investigating the distribution, antimicrobial resistance, and genetic relationship of Salmonella isolated from 18 farms, their downstream abattoirs, and markets of chickens and pigs in Sichuan province, China. A total of 193 Salmonella isolates were identified from 693 samples with an isolation rate of 26.27% (88/335) in chickens and 29.33% (105/358) in pigs. Salmonella was isolated more frequently in abattoirs and markets than from farms. Serotypes were determined according to the White-Kauffmann-Le Minor scheme and 16 different serotypes were identified, with Derby being the most common, followed by Typhimurium and Meleagridis. Antimicrobial resistance phenotypes and genotypes were studied by using the disk diffusion method and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification, respectively. Overall, 44.04% (n = 85) of all isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR) and resistance to nalidixic acid (51.30%) was the most frequently observed. blaCTX-M-55 was the most prevalent extended-spectrum β-lactamases gene, and polymyxin resistance gene mcr-1 was present in strains with various serotypes. Multilocus sequence typing indicated that sequence type (ST) had a close relationship with serotype, and 34.20% of all strains were ST40, which was the most prevalent. The unweighted pair group method with arithmetic means (UPGMA) dendrogram of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis showed that Salmonella isolates belonging to the same serovar from different parts of the production chain were highly genetic related, indicating that Salmonella as well as resistance genes could potentially be transmitted from farms to markets. Our study highlights the fact that Salmonella isolates from chicken and pig production chain were frequently exhibiting MDR profiles, and the dissemination of MDR Salmonella from farm to market could pose significant threats to food safety and public health.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of fosfomycin resistance gene fosA3 and characterize plasmids harboring fosA3 among CTX-M-producing Escherichia coli from chickens in China. A total of 234 CTX-M-producing E. coli isolates collected from chickens from 2014 to 2016 were screened for the presence of plasmid-mediated fosfomycin resistance genes (fosA, fosA3, and fosC2). Clonal relatedness of fosA3-positive isolates was determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). The genetic environment of fosA3 was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) mapping. Plasmids were studied by using conjugation experiments, PCR-based replicon typing and plasmid MLST. Sixty-four (27.4%) fosA3-positive E. coli isolates were identified in this study. The gene blaCTX-M-55 (31/64) was predominant among these strains, followed by blaCTX-M-14 (18/64) and blaCTX-M-65 (14/64). Various PFGE patterns and sequence types (STs) indicated that these isolates were clonally unrelated. Seven different genetic environments of fosA3 were identified and two new combinations (ISEcp1-blaCTX-M-65-ΔIS903D-IS26-fosA3-orf1-orf2-Δorf3-IS26 and IS26-ISEcp1-blaCTX-M-3-orf477-blaTEM-1-IS26-fosA3-orf1-orf2-Δorf3-IS26) were discovered for the first time. Conjugation experiments were successful for 47 isolates and 33 transconjugants harbored a single plasmid. Plasmids carrying fosA3 belonged to incompatibility group IncFII (17/33), IncI1 (2/33), IncHI2 (3/33), and IncB/O (1/33). F33:A-:B- plasmids carrying blaCTX-M-55, IncHI2/ST3 plasmids carrying blaCTX-M-65, and F2:A-:B-plasmids carrying blaCTX-M-55 were found in E. coli isolates from different provinces. Our results revealed a considerable prevalence of fosA3 gene among CTX-M-producing E. coli with clonal diversity from chickens in China. The transmission of different kinds of plasmids is responsible for the dissemination of fosA3 in chicken farms in China.

Abstract
Quinolones are a family of synthetic broad-spectrum antimicrobial drugs. These molecules have been widely prescribed to treat various infectious diseases and have been classified into several generations based on their spectrum of activity. Quinolones inhibit bacterial DNA synthesis by interfering with the action of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. Mutations in the genes encoding these targets are the most common mechanisms of high-level fluoroquinolone resistance. Moreover, three mechanisms for plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) have been discovered since 1998 and include Qnr proteins, the aminoglycoside acetyltransferase AAC(6')-Ib-cr, and plasmid-mediated efflux pumps QepA and OqxAB. Plasmids with these mechanisms often encode additional antimicrobial resistance (extended spectrum beta-lactamases [ESBLs] and plasmidic AmpC [pAmpC] ß-lactamases) and can transfer multidrug resistance. The PMQR determinants are disseminated in Mediterranean countries with prevalence relatively high depending on the sources and the regions, highlighting the necessity of long-term surveillance for the future monitoring of trends in the occurrence of PMQR genes.

Abstract
Aminoglycoside (AG) antibiotics are used to treat many Gram-negative and some Gram-positive infections and, importantly, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. Among various bacterial species, resistance to AGs arises through a variety of intrinsic and acquired mechanisms. The bacterial cell wall serves as a natural barrier for small molecules such as AGs and may be further fortified via acquired mutations. Efflux pumps work to expel AGs from bacterial cells, and modifications here too may cause further resistance to AGs. Mutations in the ribosomal target of AGs, while rare, also contribute to resistance. Of growing clinical prominence is resistance caused by ribosome methyltransferases. By far the most widespread mechanism of resistance to AGs is the inactivation of these antibiotics by AG-modifying enzymes. We provide here an overview of these mechanisms by which bacteria become resistant to AGs and discuss their prevalence and potential for clinical relevance.

Abstract
Here we report an outbreak of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections harboring extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) and armA 16Sr RNA methylase that were detected in pediatric and neonatal intensive care units during the 2010 and 2011 surveys of 100 clinical strains of K. pneumoniae from Annaba hospitals in Algeria. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed using the disk diffusion method. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of three classes of antibiotics were determined using the E. test. Standard polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing were performed using primers targeting ESBL, 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) methyltransferases, aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes (AMEs), and quinolone encoding genes. Clonal relationships among the clinical isolates were performed using multilocus sequence typing. From our clinical isolates, we found high rates of antimicrobial resistance that were linked to the presence of different ESBL encoding genes and AMEs, including 23 strains that harbored several ESBL encoding genes along with the 16S rRNA methyltransferase armA. Among these isolates, we identified a cluster of eight isolates of the ST39 clone between February and June 2010 in a pediatric ward, suggesting that an outbreak had occurred during this period. In conclusion, the emergence of multidrug-resistant clones, which were likely responsible for a nosocomial outbreak, is worrying because there are already limited options in those critical situations. Finally, we believe that surveillance should be implemented to monitor the risk of emergence and spread of carbapenemases in Algeria.
