Rapid and Extensive Expansion in the United States of a New Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli Clonal Group, Sequence Type 1193.

ABSTRACT: We describe the rapid and ongoing emergence across multiple US cities of a new multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli clone-sequence type (ST) 1193-resistant to fluoroquinolones (100%), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (55%), and tetracycline (53%). ST1193 is associated with younger adults (age <40 years) and currently comprises a quarter of fluoroquinolone-resistant clinical E. coli urine isolates.

Clonal expansion of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis, Japan.

Project description:The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis (TB) has raised public health concern about global control of TB. To estimate the transmission dynamics of MDR and XDR TB, we conducted a DNA fingerprinting analysis of 55 MDR/XDR Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated from TB patients throughout Japan in 2002. Twenty-one (38%) of the strains were classified into 9 clusters with geographic links, which suggests that community transmission of MDR/XDR TB is ongoing. Furthermore, the XDR M. tuberculosis strains were more likely than the non-XDR MDR strains to be clustered (71% vs. 24%; p = 0.003), suggesting that transmission plays a critical role in the new incidence of XDR TB. These findings highlight the difficulty of preventing community transmission of XDR TB by conventional TB control programs and indicate an urgent need for a more appropriate strategy to contain highly developed drug-resistant TB.

Phylogenomic Analysis of Extraintestinal Pathogenic Escherichia coli Sequence Type 1193, an Emerging Multidrug-Resistant Clonal Group.

Project description:The fluoroquinolone-resistant sequence type 1193 (ST1193) of Escherichia coli, from the ST14 clonal complex (STc14) within phylogenetic group B2, has appeared recently as an important cause of extraintestinal disease in humans. Although this emerging lineage has been characterized to some extent using conventional methods, it has not been studied extensively at the genomic level. Here, we used whole-genome sequence analysis to compare 355 ST1193 isolates with 72 isolates from other STs within STc14. Using core genome phylogeny, the ST1193 isolates formed a tightly clustered clade with many genotypic similarities, unlike ST14 isolates. All ST1193 isolates possessed the same set of three chromosomal mutations conferring fluoroquinolone resistance, carried the fimH64 allele, and were lactose non-fermenting. Analysis revealed an evolutionary progression from K1 to K5 capsular types and acquisition of an F-type virulence plasmid, followed by changes in plasmid structure congruent with genome phylogeny. In contrast, the numerous identified antimicrobial resistance genes were distributed incongruently with the underlying phylogeny, suggesting frequent gain or loss of the corresponding resistance gene cassettes despite retention of the presumed carrier plasmids. Pangenome analysis revealed gains and losses of genetic loci occurring during the transition from ST14 to ST1193 and from the K1 to K5 capsular types. Using time-scaled phylogenetic analysis, we estimated that current ST1193 clades first emerged approximately 25?years ago. Overall, ST1193 appears to be a recently emerged clone in which both stepwise and mosaic evolution have contributed to epidemiologic success.

Multidrug-resistant Salmonella typhimurium, Pacific Northwest, United States.

Project description:We compared human and bovine isolates of Salmonella enterica using antimicrobial-drug resistance profiles and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. From 2000 through 2006, we observed an increase in a novel multidrug-resistant clone of S. Typhimurium with no recognized phage type. This clone may represent an emerging epidemic strain in the Pacific Northwest.

Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Rhodococcus equi, United States.

Project description:Multidrug resistance has been detected in the animal and zoonotic human pathogen Rhodococcus equi after mass macrolide/rifampin antibioprophylaxis in endemically affected equine farms in the United States. Multidrug-resistant (MDR) R. equi emerged upon acquisition of pRERm46, a conjugative plasmid conferring resistance to macrolides, lincosamides, streptogramins, and, as we describe, tetracycline. Phylogenomic analyses indicate that the increasing prevalence of MDR R. equi since it was first documented in 2002 is caused by a clone, R. equi 2287, attributable to coselection of pRErm46 with a chromosomal rpoBS531F mutation driven by macrolide/rifampin therapy. pRErm46 spillover to other R. equi genotypes has given rise to a novel MDR clone, G2016, associated with a distinct rpoBS531Y mutation. Our findings illustrate that overuse of antimicrobial prophylaxis in animals can generate MDR pathogens with zoonotic potential. MDR R. equi and pRErm46-mediated resistance are currently disseminating in the United States and are likely to spread internationally through horse movements.

Virulence Potential of a Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli Strain Belonging to the Emerging Clonal Group ST101-B1 Isolated from Bloodstream Infection.

Project description:Escherichia coli EC121 is a multidrug-resistant (MDR) strain isolated from a bloodstream infection of an inpatient with persistent gastroenteritis and T-zone lymphoma that died due to septic shock. Despite causing an extraintestinal infection, previous studies showed that it did not have the usual characteristics of an extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli. Instead, it belonged to phylogenetic group B1 and harbored few known virulence genes. To evaluate the pathogenic potential of strain EC121, an extensive genome sequencing and in vitro characterization of various pathogenicity-associated properties were performed. The genomic analysis showed that strain EC121 harbors more than 50 complete virulence genetic clusters. It also displays the capacity to adhere to a variety of epithelial cell lineages and invade T24 bladder cells, as well as the ability to form biofilms on abiotic surfaces, and survive the bactericidal serum complement activity. Additionally, EC121 was shown to be virulent in the Galleria mellonella model. Furthermore, EC121 is an MDR strain harboring 14 antimicrobial resistance genes, including blaCTX-M-2. Completing the scenario, it belongs to serotype O154:H25 and to sequence type 101-B1, which has been epidemiologically linked to extraintestinal infections as well as to antimicrobial resistance spread. This study with E. coli strain EC121 shows that clinical isolates considered opportunistic might be true pathogens that go underestimated.

Bedaquiline for the Treatment of Multidrug-resistant Tuberculosis in the United States.

Project description:BACKGROUND:In 2012, the Food and Drug Administration approved use of bedaquiline fumarate as part of combination therapy for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB). We describe treatment outcomes, safety, and tolerability of bedaquiline in our case series. METHODS:Data on patients started on bedaquiline for MDR TB between September 2012 and August 2016 were collected retrospectively through 4 TB programs using a standardized abstraction tool. Data were analyzed using univariate methods. Adverse events were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. RESULTS:Of 14 patients, 7 (50%) had MDR, 4 (29%) had pre-extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and 3 (21%) had XDR TB. All had pulmonary TB, 5 (36%) had pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB, and 9/13 (69%) were smear positive. One patient (7%) had HIV coinfection, 5 (36%) had diabetes mellitus, and 5/14 (36%) had previous treatment TB. All patients were non-US-born and 5/14 (36%) had private insurance. All patients achieved sputum culture conversion within a mean of 71 days (26-116); 5 after starting bedaquiline. Twelve (86%) completed treatment and 1 (7%) moved out of the country. One patient (7%) had QTc prolongation >500 milliseconds and died 20 months after discontinuing bedaquiline of a cause not attributable to the drug. Common adverse events were peripheral neuropathy 7/14 (50%), not customarily associated with bedaquiline use, and QTc prolongation 6/14 (43%). CONCLUSIONS:Of 14 patients, 1 (7%) had an adverse event necessitating bedaquiline discontinuation. Safety, culture conversion, and treatment completion in this series (7%) support use of bedaquiline for the treatment of MDR/XDR TB.

Epidemiology of Pediatric Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis in the United States, 1993-2014.

Project description:Background:Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is an important global public health threat, but accurate estimates of MDR-TB burden among children are lacking. Methods:We analyzed demographic, clinical, and laboratory data for newly diagnosed pediatric (age <15 years) TB cases reported to the US National TB Surveillance System during 1993-2014. MDR-TB was defined as culture-confirmed TB disease with resistance to at least isoniazid and rifampicin. To ascertain potential underestimation of pediatric MDR-TB, we surveyed high-burden states for clinically diagnosed cases treated for MDR-TB. Results:Of 20789 pediatric TB cases, 5162 (24.8%) had bacteriologically confirmed TB. Among 4826 (93.5%) with drug susceptibility testing, 82 (1.7%) had MDR-TB. Most pediatric MDR-TB cases were female (n = 51 [62%]), median age was 5 years (interquartile range, 1-12 years), one-third were Hispanic (n = 28 [34%]), and two-thirds (n = 55 [67%]) were born in the United States. Most cases had additional resistance to ?1 other first-line drug (n = 66 [81%]) and one-third had resistance to ?1 second-line drug (24/73 tested). Of 77 who started treatment prior to 2013, 66 (86%) completed treatment and 4 (5%) died. Among the 4 high-TB-burden states/jurisdictions surveyed, there was 42%-55% underestimation of pediatric MDR-TB cases when using only culture-confirmed case definitions. Conclusions:Only one-quarter of pediatric TB cases had culture-confirmed TB, likely resulting in underestimation of true pediatric MDR-TB burden in the United States using strictly bacteriologic criteria. Better estimates of pediatric MDR-TB burden in the United States are needed and should include clinical diagnoses based on epidemiologic criteria.

The recent rapid expansion of multidrug resistant Ural lineage Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Moldova.

Project description:The projected trajectory of multidrug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) epidemics depends on the reproductive fitness of circulating strains of MDR M. tuberculosis (Mtb). Previous efforts to characterize the fitness of MDR Mtb have found that Mtb strains of the Beijing sublineage (Lineage 2.2.1) may be more prone to develop resistance and retain fitness in the presence of resistance-conferring mutations than other lineages. Using Mtb genome sequences from all culture-positive cases collected over two years in Moldova, we estimate the fitness of Ural (Lineage 4.2) and Beijing strains, the two lineages in which MDR is concentrated in the country. We estimate that the fitness of MDR Ural strains substantially exceeds that of other susceptible and MDR strains, and we identify several mutations specific to these MDR Ural strains. Our findings suggest that MDR Ural Mtb has been transmitting efficiently in Moldova and poses a substantial risk of spreading further in the region.

Rapid Identification of Rectal Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli Before Transrectal Prostate Biopsy.

Project description:ObjectiveTo develop and evaluate a rapid multiplex-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to identify fecal carriers of multidrug-resistant extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (MDR-ExPEC) clonal groups.MethodsMen presenting for transrectal prostate biopsy (TPB) at the San Diego Veterans Affairs Medical Center underwent rectal culture immediately before TPB. Rectal swabs were streaked onto ciprofloxacin-supplemented (4 mg/L) MacConkey agar plates, identified, and susceptibility tested. The same swab was sent to the University of Washington for qPCR test (EST200) targeting 2 major MDR-ExPEC clonal groups--ST131 and ST69--that combined were expected to represent majority of fluoroquinolone (FQ)- and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole-resistant E coli. We calculate test characteristics including the area under the receiver operative curve (AUC).ResultsWe enrolled 104 men from 11/5/2013 to 6/10/2014. FQ-resistant E coli were cultured from 19.2% (20/104) of rectal swabs, and 26% (27/104) of all swabs were positive for EST200 by PCR. The test characteristics comparing the EST200 to the culture-based detection of FQ resistance were 75%, 86%, 94%, and 56%, respectively. The AUC was 0.84 for the EST200 to detect FQ resistance before TPB.ConclusionCompared to the reference standard rectal culture, EST200 was able to detect majority of FQ-resistant E coli on rectal swabs before prostate biopsy.
