Ceftriaxone-Resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae Isolates (2010 to 2014) in France Characterized by Using Whole-Genome Sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Two extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates were discovered among 6,340 (0.03%) French isolates between 2010 and 2014. One isolate corresponded to the F89 multidrug-resistant N. gonorrhoeae isolate harboring a penA mosaic; whole-genome sequencing highlighted an additional R251H substitution in the ftsX gene recently involved in cephalosporin resistance. The other, ceftriaxone-resistant isolate (MIC, 0.25 mg/liter) harbored the PBP2 pattern XXXVI plus a P551S substitution and belonged to sequence type ST1579 (multilocus sequence typing [MLST]).

Ceftriaxone-Resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Canada, 2017.

Project description:We identified a ceftriaxone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolate in a patient in Canada. This isolate carried the penA-60 allele, which differs substantially from its closest relative, mosaic penA XXVII (80% nucleotide identity). Epidemiologic and genomic data suggest spread from Asia. Antimicrobial susceptibility surveillance helps prevent spread of highly resistant N. gonorrhoeae strains.

Multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae failing treatment with ceftriaxone and doxycycline in France, November 2017.

Project description:We report a multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae urogenital and pharyngeal infection with ceftriaxone resistance and intermediate resistance to azithromycin in a heterosexual woman in her 20s in France. Treatment with ceftriaxone plus doxycycline failed for the pharyngeal localisation. Whole-genome sequencing of isolate F90 identified MLST1903, NG-MAST ST3435, NG-STAR233, and relevant resistance determinants. F90 showed phenotypic and genotypic similarities to an internationally spreading multidrug-resistant and ceftriaxone-resistant clone detected in Japan and subsequently in Australia, Canada and Denmark.

Cooperative Recognition of Internationally Disseminated Ceftriaxone-Resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae Strain.

Project description:Ceftriaxone remains a first-line treatment for patients infected by Neisseria gonorrhoeae in most settings. We investigated the possible spread of a ceftriaxone-resistant FC428 N. gonorrhoeae clone in Japan after recent isolation of similar strains in Denmark (GK124) and Canada (47707). We report 2 instances of the FC428 clone in Australia in heterosexual men traveling from Asia. Our bioinformatic analyses included core single-nucleotide variation phylogeny and in silico molecular typing; phylogenetic analysis showed close genetic relatedness among all 5 isolates. Results showed multilocus sequence type 1903; N. gonorrhoeae sequence typing for antimicrobial resistance (NG-STAR) 233; and harboring of mosaic penA allele encoding alterations A311V and T483S (penA-60.001), associated with ceftriaxone resistance. Our results provide further evidence of international transmission of ceftriaxone-resistant N. gonorrhoeae. We recommend increasing awareness of international spread of this drug-resistant strain, strengthening surveillance to include identifying treatment failures and contacts, and strengthening international sharing of data.

Identification of multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates with combined resistance to both ceftriaxone and azithromycin, China, 2017-2018.

Project description:The growing multidrug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a serious global threat to gonococcal therapy. During 2017-2018, we identified a rare multidrug-resistant (ceftriaxone and azithromycin) strain (GC250) and four strains (GC185, GC195, GC196 and GC249) with both resistance to ceftriaxone and decreased susceptibility to azithromycin. All strains belonged to NG-STAR ST1143, including the mosaic penA-60.001, which is closely related to ceftriaxone resistance. The characterization of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) determinants and phylogenetic analysis showed these five strains were closely related to internationally spreading ceftriaxone-resistant N. gonorrhoeae FC428, but with higher azithromycin MIC. Findings here demonstrated that this clone not only initiated clonal expansion in China, but acquired azithromycin resistance.

Project description:The emergence of ceftriaxone-resistantNeisseria gonorrhoeaeis currently a global public health concern. However, the mechanism of ceftriaxone resistance is not yet fully understood. To investigate the potential genes related to ceftriaxone resistance inNeisseria gonorrhoeae, we subcultured six gonococcal strains with increasing concentrations of ceftriaxone and isolated the strains that became resistant. After analyzing several frequently reported genes involved in ceftriaxone resistance, we found only a single mutation inpenA(A501V). However, differential analysis of the genomes and transcriptomes between pre- and postselection strains revealed many other mutated genes as well as up- and downregulated genes. Transformation of the mutatedpenAgene into nonresistant strains increased the MIC between 2.0- and 5.3-fold, and transformation of mutatedftsXincreased the MIC between 3.3- and 13.3-fold. Genes encoding the ABC transporters FarB, Tfq, Hfq, and ExbB were overexpressed, whilepilM,pilN, andpilQwere downregulated. Furthermore, the resistant strain developed cross-resistance to penicillin and cefuroxime, had an increased biochemical metabolic rate, and presented fitness defects such as prolonged growth time and downregulated PilMNQ. In conclusion, antimicrobial pressure could result in the emergence of ceftriaxone resistance, and the evolution of resistance ofNeisseria gonorrhoeaeto ceftriaxone is a complicated process at both the pretranscriptional and posttranscriptional levels, involving several resistance mechanisms of increased efflux and decreased entry.

Susceptibility Trends of Zoliflodacin against Multidrug-Resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae Clinical Isolates in Nanjing, China, 2014 to 2018.

Project description:Previously, we reported the potent activity of a novel spiropyrimidinetrione, zoliflodacin, against Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates collected in 2013 from symptomatic men in Nanjing, China. Here, we investigated trends of susceptibilities to zoliflodacin in 986 isolates collected from men between 2014 and 2018. N. gonorrhoeae isolates were tested for susceptibility to zoliflodacin and seven other antibiotics. Mutations in the gyrA, gyrB, parC, parE, and mtrR genes were determined by PCR and sequencing. The MICs of zoliflodacin ranged from ≤0.002 to 0.25 mg/liter; the overall MIC50 and MIC90 were 0.06 mg/liter and 0.125 mg/liter, respectively, in 2018, increasing 2-fold from 2014. However, the percentage of isolates with lower zoliflodacin MICs declined in each year sequentially, while the percentage with higher MICs increased yearly (P ≤ 0.00001). All isolates were susceptible to spectinomycin but resistant to ciprofloxacin (MIC ≥ 1 mg/liter); 21.2% (209/986) were resistant to azithromycin (≥1 mg/liter), 43.4% (428/986) were penicillinase-producing N. gonorrhoeae (PPNG), 26.9% (265/986) were tetracycline-resistant N. gonorrhoeae (TRNG), and 19.4% (191/986) were multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates. 202 isolates with the lowest (≤0.002 to 0.015 mg/liter) and highest (0.125 to 0.25 mg/liter) zoliflodacin MICs were quinolone resistant with double or triple mutations in gyrA; 193/202 (95.5%) also had mutations in parC There were no D429N/A and/or K450T mutations in GyrB identified in the 143 isolates with higher zoliflodacin MICs; an S467N mutation in GyrB was identified in one isolate. We report that zoliflodacin continues to have excellent in vitro activity against clinical gonococcal isolates, including those with high-level resistance to ciprofloxacin, azithromycin, and extended-spectrum cephalosporins.

High-level cefixime- and ceftriaxone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae in France: novel penA mosaic allele in a successful international clone causes treatment failure.

Project description:Recently, the first Neisseria gonorrhoeae strain (H041) highly resistant to the expanded-spectrum cephalosporins (ESCs) ceftriaxone and cefixime, which are the last remaining options for first-line gonorrhea treatment, was isolated in Japan. Here, we confirm and characterize a second strain (F89) with high-level cefixime and ceftriaxone resistance which was isolated in France and most likely caused a treatment failure with cefixime. F89 was examined using six species-confirmatory tests, antibiograms (33 antimicrobials), porB sequencing, N. gonorrhoeae multiantigen sequence typing (NG-MAST), multilocus sequence typing (MLST), and sequencing of known gonococcal resistance determinants (penA, mtrR, penB, ponA, and pilQ). F89 was assigned to MLST sequence type 1901 (ST1901) and NG-MAST ST1407, which is a successful gonococcal clone that has spread globally. F89 has high-level resistance to cefixime (MIC = 4 μg/ml) and ceftriaxone (MIC = 1 to 2 μg/ml) and resistance to most other antimicrobials examined. A novel penA mosaic allele (penA-CI), which was penA-XXXIV with an additional A501P alteration in penicillin-binding protein 2, was the primary determinant for high-level ESC resistance, as determined by transformation into a set of recipient strains. N. gonorrhoeae appears to be emerging as a superbug, and in certain circumstances and settings, gonorrhea may become untreatable. Investigations of the biological fitness and enhanced understanding and monitoring of the ESC-resistant clones and their international transmission are required. Enhanced disease control activities, antimicrobial resistance control and surveillance worldwide, and public health response plans for global (and national) perspectives are also crucial. Nevertheless, new treatment strategies and/or drugs and, ideally, a vaccine are essential to develop for efficacious gonorrhea management.

Identification of ceftriaxone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae FC428 clone and isolates harboring a novel mosaic penA gene in Chengdu in 2019-2020.

Project description:BackgroundAntimicrobial resistance in gonorrhea has become a growing global public health burden. Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates with resistance to ceftriaxone, the last remaining first-line option, represent an emerging threat of untreatable gonorrhea.MethodsA total of ten ceftriaxone-resistant N. gonorrhoeae FC428 isolates and two isolates harboring a novel mosaic penA-232.001 allele from 160 gonococcal isolates in Chengdu in 2019-2020 was described in the present study. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and N. gonorrhoeae sequence typing for antimicrobial resistance (NG-STAR) were performed to characterize the isolates. Whole genome sequencing and maximum-likelihood method were performed to infer how the genetic phylogenetic tree of these isolates looks like. Recombination analysis was performed using the RDP4 software. This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2100048771, registration date: 20210716).ResultsThe genetic phylogeny showed that the ten FC428 isolates sporadically clustered into different phylogenetic clades, suggesting different introductions and local transmission of FC428. Two isolates showed close genetic relatedness to ceftriaxone-resistant clone A8806, which was only reported from Australia in 2013. Homologous recombination events were detected in penA between Neisseria gonorrhoeae and commensal Neisseria species (N. perflava and N. polysaccharea), providing evidence of commensal Neisseria species might serve as reservoirs of ceftriaxone resistance-mediating penA sequences in clinical gonococcal strains.ConclusionsOur results demonstrate further dissemination of FC428 in China and resurgence risks of sporadic ceftriaxone-resistant A8806 to become the next clone to spread.
