高毒力肺炎克雷伯菌的毒力机制研究进展

肺炎克雷伯菌是一种常见的革兰阴性杆菌,是第二大容易引起院内感染的细菌。高毒力肺炎克雷伯菌(HvKP)又称高黏性肺炎克雷伯,是从传统肺炎克雷伯菌中分离出来的具有高毒力、高黏性的侵袭性细菌,其表现出的高毒力会引起健康人发生侵袭性感染,严重者会危及生命。目前,临床实验室主要通过拉丝实验与传统的肺炎克雷伯菌相鉴别。研究发现,Hv KP的高黏性与其K1、K2、K57等血清型,编码荚膜相关基因及铁载体相关。对HvKP的毒力增强因素以及该菌引起的肝脓肿做简要综述。

A novel large plasmid carrying multiple beta-lactam resistance genes isolated from a Klebsiella pneumoniae strain

Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates were selected according to the results of antibiotic susceptibility tests. Most of them were resistant to multiple antibiotics, including ampicillin, ceftazidime, cefotaxime and aminoglycosides. Large plasmids were observed in these Kl. pneumoniae strains by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with S1 nuclease digestion. The Kl. pneumoniae strains investigated produced one to two extrachromosomal bands with a mobility corresponding to 97 approximately 145 kbp linear DNA molecules. A 100 kbp plasmid, designated pK1, was observed in the multiply resistant strain K250. pK1 had sequences homologous to both the TEM-1 and the aphD probe which were associated with beta-lactam and aminoglycoside resistance. pK1 was transformed into Escherichia coli strain DH5alpha and was found to confer resistance to ampicillin, ceftazidime, cefotaxime and kanamycin. A 8 kbp BamHI DNA fragment of pK1 that carried the ampicillin resistance gene (minimum inhibitory concentration > 1000 microgram ml-1) was cloned into the BamHI site of pACYC184. Sequence determination showed that this cloned fragment carried a TEM-1 gene. These findings suggest that pK1 is novel in that it appears to carry genes for resistance to ampicillin, cefotaxime and ceftazidime, as well as kanamycin.     

Analysis of bla(CTX-M)-carrying plasmids from Escherichia coli isolates collected in the BfT-GermVet study

In this study, 417 Escherichia coli isolates from defined disease conditions of companion and farm animals collected in the BfT-GermVet study were investigated for the presence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes. Three ESBL-producing E. coli isolates were identified among the 100 ampicillin-resistant isolates. The E. coli isolates 168 and 246, of canine and porcine origins, respectively, harbored bla(CTX-M-1), and the canine isolate 913 harbored bla(CTX-M-15), as confirmed by PCR and sequence analysis. The isolates 168 and 246 belonged to the novel multilocus sequence typing (MLST) types ST1576 and ST1153, respectively, while isolate 913 had the MLST type ST410. The ESBL genes were located on structurally related IncN plasmids in isolates 168 and 246 and on an IncF plasmid in isolate 913. The bla(CTX-M-1) upstream regions of plasmids pCTX168 and pCTX246 were similar, whereas the downstream regions showed structural differences. The genetic environment of the bla(CTX-M-15) gene on plasmid pCTX913 differed distinctly from that of both bla(CTX-M-1) genes. Detailed sequence analysis showed that the integration of insertion sequences, as well as interplasmid recombination events, accounted for the structural variability in the bla(CTX-M) gene regions.     

血流感染碳青霉烯类耐药肺炎克雷伯菌的耐药分析及同源性研究

本研究旨在探讨血流感染碳青霉烯类耐药肺炎克雷伯菌(carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia, CRKP)的耐药特点、分子分型特征和菌株同源性,为CRKP感染的临床诊治和预防控制提供理论参考。收集2015年4月至2018年3月期间就诊于上海市某三甲医院患者血标本分离的肺炎克雷伯菌(KP)非重复菌株,采用VITEK 2 Compact全自动细菌鉴定仪鉴定细菌并进行药物敏感性试验,共获得51株CRKP。对CRKP菌株使用纸片扩散法或琼脂稀释法进行15种抗菌药物的敏感性试验;采用聚合酶链式反应(polymerase chain reaction,PCR)检测碳青霉烯酶基因型;通过脉冲场凝胶电泳和多位点序列分型(MLST)技术分析菌株同源性。结果显示,51株CRKP对检测的15种临床常用抗菌药物呈广泛耐药,对其中的哌拉西林、头孢唑啉、头孢吡肟、头孢噻肟、头孢呋辛、头孢他啶、头孢哌酮/舒巴坦、哌拉西林/他唑巴坦和环丙沙星耐药率为100%;对阿米卡星、庆大霉素和复方新诺明的耐药率较高,分别为76.5%、90.2%和62.8%;对替加环素耐药率较低,为3.9%。51株CRKP均检测出blaKPC基因,经测序鉴定为blaKPC-2基因,提示产KPC-2是CRKP对碳青霉烯类耐药的主要机制。MLST检测到4种ST型别,以ST11型为主,共 43株(84.3%),另有ST15型6株(11.8%),ST4845型1株及1株新分型。51株CRKP的PFGE图谱相似性系数在62.9%～100%,可分为19个簇(A-S簇),每簇分别包含1～12个菌株。其中A簇(13.7%)和G簇(23.5%)包含的菌株相对较多,且MLST分型均为ST11型,为优势簇。G簇包含7个型别,G4型为主要克隆菌株。 ST11型为CRKP的主要型别,PFGE分析表明该院存在菌株的克隆传播,应规范抗菌药物使用,同时加强细菌耐药性监测和医院内感染的防控工作。     

高毒力肺炎克雷伯菌的分子致病机制

肺炎克雷伯菌是一种常见致病菌,根据毒力和致病特点不同,可分为毒力相对较弱的经典肺炎克雷伯菌和高毒力肺炎克雷伯菌。目前,关于肺炎克雷伯菌分子致病机制研究较多且较清楚的主要有荚膜、脂多糖、黏附素和铁载体。这四大类毒力因子在经典肺炎克雷伯菌中也存在,但在高毒力肺炎克雷伯菌中存在的频率更高,并引发不同的免疫应答,从而使高毒力肺炎克雷伯菌具有特征性表型。本文就此进行详细介绍和讨论。     

Enhanced 2,3-butanediol production in recombinant Klebsiella pneumoniae via overexpression of synthesis-related genes

2,3-Butanediol (2,3-BD) is a major metabolite produced by Klebsiella pneumoniae KCTC2242, which is a important chemical with wide applications. Three genes important for 2,3-BD biosynthesis acetolactate decarboxylase (budA), acetolactate synthase (budB), and alcohol dehydrogenase (budC) were identified in K. pneumoniae genomic DNA. With the goal of enhancing 2,3-BD production, these genes were cloned into pUC18K expression vectors containing the lacZ promoter and the kanamycin resistance gene to generate plasmids pSB1-7. The plasmids were then introduced into K. pneumoniae using electroporation. All strains were incubated in flask experiments and 2,3-BD production was increased by 60% in recombinant bacteria harboring pSB04 (budA and budB genes), compared with the parental strain K. pneumoniae KCTC2242. The maximum 2,3-BD production level achieved through fedbatch fermentation with K. pneumoniae SGJSB04 was 101.53 g/l over 40 h with a productivity of 2.54 g/l.h. These results suggest that overexpression of 2,3-BD synthesisrelated genes can enhance 2,3-BD production in K. pneumoniae by fermentation.     

Plasmid profiles of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in Peninsular Malaysia

The plasmid profiles of 160 strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolated in Peninsular Malaysia, comprising 80 penicillinase-producing (PPNG) and 80 non-penicillinase-producing (non-PPNG) isolates, were determined. The 80 PPNG isolates were divided into two plasmid groups. All of them harbored two common plasmid species, a 4.4 megadalton (Md) R plasmid previously associated with beta-lactamase production in PPNG strains from the Far East and a 2.6 Md multicopy plasmid of unknown function. In addition to these two plasmids, 60 (75%) PPNG isolates also carried a large 24.5 Md conjugative plasmid. In contrast, the 80 non-PPNG strains were divided into three plasmid groups. All of them possessed the 2.6 Md cryptic plasmid, and 35 (44%) isolates also harbored the 24.5 Md transfer plasmid. Besides these two plasmids, one non-PPNG isolate carried an additional 7.8 Md cryptic plasmid.     

Large plasmids of fast-growing rhizobia: homology studies and location of structural nitrogen fixation (nif) genes.

A single large plasmid was isolated from multiplasmid-harboring strains Rhizobium leguminosarum 1001 and R. trifolii 5. These single plasmids, as well as the largest plasmid detectable in R. phaseoli 3622, hybridized with part of the nif structural genes of Klebsiella pneumoniae. In contrast, the plasmids of R. meliloti strains V7 and L5-30 did not show hybridization with the nif genes of K. pneumoniae, indicating that these genes might be located either on the chromosome or on a much larger plasmid which as yet has not been isolated. Studies of the homology between plasmids of fast-growing Rhizobium species showed that a specific deoxyribonucleic acid sequence, which carries the structural genes for nitrogenase, is highly conserved on a plasmid in R. leguminosarum, R. trifolii, and R. phaseoli. Furthermore, it was found that this type of plasmid in the different species shares extensive deoxyribonucleic acid homology, suggesting that strains in the R. leguminosarum cluster have preserved a nif plasmid.
