STUDY OF MINIMAL INHIBITORY CONCENTRATIONS AND MULTIPLE DRUG RESISTANCE PLASMIDS IN SALMONELLA TYPHI.

ABSTRACT: S. typhi isolated from blood cultures were tested for minimal inhibitory concentrations of antimicrobial drugs using an simple easily fabricated multiple inoculator. Multiple drug resistant S. typhi were inhibited by high concentrations of ampicillin, sulphamethoxazole, trimethoprim and chloramphenicol (> 128 mg/L) suggestive of R factor mediated resistance. They showed presence of a single large plasmid with molecular weight ranging from 85 to 110 megadaltons. Sensitive S. typhi isolates were inhibited by lower concentrations of antimicrobial and did not show evidence of any plasmid. All isolates were equally sensitive to extremely low concentrations of ceftazidime, cefuroxime, ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin and gentamicin (< 0.5 mg/L).

Salmonella Typhi acquires diverse plasmids from other Enterobacteriaceae to develop cephalosporin resistance.

Project description:BackgroundRecent reports have established the emergence and dissemination of extensively drug resistant (XDR) H58 Salmonella Typhi clone in Pakistan. In India where typhoid fever is endemic, only sporadic cases of ceftriaxone resistant S. Typhi are reported. This study aimed at elucidating the phylogenetic evolutionary framework of ceftriaxone resistant S. Typhi isolates from India to predict their potential dissemination.MethodsFive ceftriaxone resistant S. Typhi isolates from three tertiary care hospitals in India were sequenced on an Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGM). A core genome single-nucleotide-polymorphism (SNP) based phylogeny of the isolates in comparison to the global collection of MDR and XDR S. Typhi isolates was built. Two of five isolates were additionally sequenced using Oxford Nanopore MinION to completely characterize the plasmid and understand its transmission dynamics within Enterobacteriaceae.ResultsComparative genomic analysis and detailed plasmid characterization indicate that while in Pakistan (4.3.1 lineage I) the XDR trait is associated with blaCTX-M-15 gene on IncY plasmid, in India (4.3.1 lineage II), the ceftriaxone resistance is due to short term persistence of resistance plasmids such as IncX3 (blaSHV-12) or IncN (blaTEM-1B + blaDHA-1).ConclusionConsidering the selection pressure exerted by the extensive use of ceftriaxone in India, there are potential risks for the occurrence of plasmid transmission events in the predominant H58 lineages. Therefore, continuous monitoring of S. Typhi lineages carrying plasmid-mediated cephalosporin resistant genes is vital not just for India but also globally.

Molecular analysis of incHI1 antimicrobial resistance plasmids from Salmonella serovar Typhi strains associated with typhoid fever.

Project description:The first outbreak of multidrug-resistant (MDR) typhoid fever in Vietnam was in 1993, and by 1995 nearly 90% of cases were MDR. Plasmid HCM1, sequenced in full, is an incHI1 plasmid from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi strain CT18, isolated in Vietnam in 1993. Restriction analysis shows that pHCM1 shares a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) pattern with plasmids isolated from the first outbreak and 10 of 17 MDR plasmids isolated from sporadic cases occurring at the same time in Vietnam. A core region of pHCM1 has significant DNA sequence similarity to plasmid R27, isolated in 1961 from S. enterica in the United Kingdom. There are five regions of DNA in pHCM1 which are not present in R27. Two of these are putative acquisition regions; the largest is 34.955 kbp in length and includes sequences of several antibiotic resistance genes and several insertion sequences. The borders of this region are defined by two identical IS10 left elements, associated with an inversion of DNA or with a truncated Tn10 element. The second, smaller region is 14.751 kbp and carries a trimethoprim resistance gene dfr14A cassette associated with a class 1 integrase. In 1993 to 1994, restriction analysis revealed some variations in the structures of Salmonella serovar Typhi MDR plasmids which were mapped to the two putative acquisition regions and three smaller variable regions. In 1996 a single RFLP type, RFLP7, was found to carry the dfrA7 and sul-1 genes, which were not present on R27 or pHCM1. This plasmid type appears to have a selective advantage over other plasmids with the same resistance phenotype.

Expanding drug resistance through integron acquisition by IncFI plasmids of Salmonella enterica Typhimurium.

Project description:We conducted a 30-year retrospective analysis of IncFI plasmids from Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium. These plasmids have been associated with the emergence of epidemic clones of multidrug-resistant Salmonella. Molecular and genetic evidence indicates that IncFI plasmids are evolving through sequential acquisition of integrons carrying different arrays of antibiotic- resistance genes.

Large drug resistance virulence plasmids of clinical isolates of Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis.

Project description:Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis generally causes systemic human salmonellosis without diarrhea, and therefore, antimicrobial treatment is essential for such patients. The drug resistance information on this organism is thus of high value. Serovar Choleraesuis usually harbors a virulence plasmid (pSCV) of 50 kb in size. Of the 16 clinical isolates identified to be serovar Choleraesuis, all except one harbored a pSCV and seven of them carried a pSCV of more than 125 kb in size. A pSCV was defined as a plasmid carrying spvC and characteristic deletions detected by PCR and by DNA-DNA hybridization (for the former criterion). The results of PCR, restriction fragment profiles, and Southern DNA-DNA hybridizations of the profiles all indicated that such larger pSCVs were derived from the 50-kb plasmid recombined with non-pSCVs found in some clinical isolates. Fifteen of the 17 strains, including a laboratory strain, were then tested for drug resistance against 16 antibiotics with E-test and the dilution method. The laboratory strain, which harbored a 50-kb pSCV and a 6-kb non-pSCV, was resistant only to sulfonamides (SUL), and its resistance gene, sulII, checked with PCR and DNA-DNA hybridization, was located on the 6-kb non-pSCV. All 14 clinical strains were resistant to multiple drugs. Of the 14, 7 were resistant to SUL, and the resistance gene was located on a plasmid. The sulII gene, but not bla(TEM-1), was carried only on the 6-kb non-pSCV. Of the remaining six large plasmids, three of 90 kb, two of 136 kb, and one of 140 kb, the last three were pSCVs and carried the other SUL gene (sulI) and the bla(TEM-1) gene. The six strains were also resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. None of the 50-kb pSCVs carried resistance genes. These drug resistance genes on the large pSCVs were apparently also acquired through recombination.

Analysis of isolates from Bangladesh highlights multiple ways to carry resistance genes in Salmonella Typhi.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Typhoid fever, caused by Salmonella Typhi, follows a fecal-oral transmission route and is a major global public health concern, especially in developing countries like Bangladesh. Increasing emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious issue; the list of treatments for typhoid fever is ever-decreasing. In addition to IncHI1-type plasmids, Salmonella genomic island (SGI) 11 has been reported to carry AMR genes. Although reports suggest a recent reduction in multidrug resistance (MDR) in the Indian subcontinent, the corresponding genomic changes in the background are unknown. RESULTS:Here, we assembled and annotated complete closed chromosomes and plasmids for 73?S. Typhi isolates using short-length Illumina reads. S. Typhi had an open pan-genome, and the core genome was smaller than previously reported. Considering AMR genes, we identified five variants of SGI11, including the previously reported reference sequence. Five plasmids were identified, including the new plasmids pK91 and pK43; pK43and pHCM2 were not related to AMR. The pHCM1, pPRJEB21992 and pK91 plasmids carried AMR genes and, along with the SGI11 variants, were responsible for resistance phenotypes. pK91 also contained qnr genes, conferred high ciprofloxacin resistance and was related to the H58-sublineage Bdq, which shows the same phenotype. The presence of plasmids (pHCM1 and pK91) and SGI11 were linked to two H58-lineages, Ia and Bd. Loss of plasmids and integration of resistance genes in genomic islands could contribute to the fitness advantage of lineage Ia isolates. CONCLUSIONS:Such events may explain why lineage Ia is globally widespread, while the Bd lineage is locally restricted. Further studies are required to understand how these S. Typhi AMR elements spread and generate new variants. Preventive measures such as vaccination programs should also be considered in endemic countries; such initiatives could potentially reduce the spread of AMR.

Salmonella enterica Serotype Typhi with nonclassical quinolone resistance phenotype.

Project description:We report Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi strains with a nonclassical quinolone resistance phenotype (i.e., decreased susceptibility to ciprofloxacin but with susceptibility to nalidixic acid) associated with a nonsynonymous mutation at codon 464 of the gyrB gene. These strains, not detected by the nalidixic acid disk screening test, can result in fluoroquinolone treatment failure.

Chromosome-mediated multidrug resistance in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi.

Project description:A salmonella genomic island, designated SGI11, was found in 18 of 26 multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi isolates from Bangladesh. SGI11 was an IS1 composite transposon and carried 7 resistance genes that conferred resistance to 5 first-line antimicrobials. Eleven of the 18 SGI11-carrying S. Typhi isolates had developed resistance to high levels of ciprofloxacin.

Transcriptomic study of Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Typhi biofilm

Project description:Six sequencing libraries was prepared from S. Typhi planktonic cells and biofilm cells using Illumina HiSeq 2500 sequencing to investigate differential gene expression between the two conditions. The transcriptome was processed using Cufflinks and there were a total of 35 up-regulated genes and 29 down-regulated genes log2-fold change values of greater than 2 and less than negative 2. The differentially expressed genes were identified using BLAST and the functions was analysed. This study provides an overview of the genes that are differentially expressed in S. Typhi when it transitions from the planktonic to the biofilm phenotype. The data will provide a basis for further study is necessary to uncover the mechanisms of biofilm formation in S. Typhi and discovery of novel gene functions or pathways associated with the development of the typhoid carrier state. This data may also be used to elucidate the effect of biofilm on the virulence and pathogenicity of S. Typhi in chronic carriers.

Impact of Multiple Antimicrobial Exposures on the Transfer Efficiency of Multidrug Resistance Plasmids in Salmonella enteric

Project description:Antimicrobial exposure can potentially lead to increased antimicrobial resistance plasmid transfer. RNA sequencing data was collected from conjugal pairs of Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli exposed or not exposed to tetracycline over a time course to determine differences in transcript numbers associated with conjugation and tetracycline exposure. The samples were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq X10 platform with the 150-bp paired-end kit. Among the most highly up-regulated genes in the tetracycline exposed samples were also tetracycline efflux pump genes across the timepoints. In addition, some conjugal transfer-associated genes (e.g. traJ and traA) were upregulated in the tetracycline exposed samples.
