Escherichia Coli: Characteristics of Carbapenem Resistance and Virulence Factors

Abstract: In this study, fifty Escherichia coli strains were analyzed by multiplex polymerase chain reaction for the genes expressed carbapenemase and virulence factors in order to determine the presence of carbapenemase and nine virulence factors and investigate the association between these two characteristics. When carbapenemase susceptibility was taken into consideration, OXA-48 type carbapenemase was determined for 22% of the total strains. Also, the frequency of virulence gene regions in E.coli infections and viru… Show more

“…Among MDR E. coli, AMR caused by ESBL is mainly due to the bla CTX-M family, particularly bla CTX-M-15 and -14 , compared to the less frequently observed bla SHV and bla OXA families [6][7][8]. As per the literature, carbapenem resistance in E. coli is mostly mediated by bla OXA-48 [9], bla NDM and bla VIM genes [10]. Also, increasingly, resistance is being reported for fluoroquinolones and third-and fourth-generation cephalosporins and ST-131 predominates globally among such MDR E. coli strains [11].…”

“…Globally, bla OXA-48 type were the most commonly reported carbapenemases among E. coli [21], followed by bla NDM [22], bla IMP [23] and bla KPC [24]. Studies have reported occurrence of bla OXA-48 from as low as 3% to 22% [25,9]. In contrast, a previous report from India on carbapenem-resistant clinical E. coli isolates from 2013 and 2015 has shown that bla NDM was common among carbapenemases in E. coli (70%), followed by bla OXA-48 (24%) and bla VIM (17%).…”

“…Escherichia coli is one of the most common causative agents of a wide range of clinical infections varying from meningitis, urinary tract infections, and sepsis. [1] Carbapenems are the only antibiotic option left for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant E. coli . However, the emergence of carbapenem resistance leads to the failure of empirical therapy with carbapenems.…”
