Chromosome-Mediated Colistin Resistance in Clinical Isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli: Mutation Analysis in the Light of Genetic Background
(Dove Medical Press Ltd, 2023)
© 2023 Riquelme et al.Purpose: Colistin resistance mechanisms involving mutations in chromosomal genes associated with LPS modification are not completely understood. Mutations in genes coding for the MgrB regulator ...

Resistencia a colistina mediada por plásmido en Escherichia coli recuperadas de aves de corral sanas.
Outbreak of a Cluster with Epidemic Behavior due to Serratia marcescens after colistin administration in a hospital setting
(American Society for Microbiology, 2013-07)
Serratia marcescens causes health care-associated infections with important morbidity and mortality. Particularly, outbreaks produced by multidrug-resistant isolates of this species, which is already naturally resistant ...
Frecuencia de resistencia a la colistina en Pseudomonas aeruginosa: primer reporte en el Perú
(Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2021)
This study aimed to determine the frequency of colistin resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates obtained from three healthcare facilities in Lima and cryopreserved at the Laboratorio de Resistencia Antimicrobianos e ...
An Approach to Measuring Colistin Plasma Levels Regarding the Treatment of Multidrug-Resistant Bacterial Infection
(Antibiotics, 2019-07-24)
Antimicrobial resistance to antibiotic treatment has significantly increased during recent years, causing this to become a worldwide public health problem. More than 70% of pathogenic bacteria are resistant to at least one ...
First Description of mcr-1 -Mediated Colistin Resistance in Human Infections Caused by Escherichia coli in Latin America
(American Society for Microbiology, 2016-07)
Yi-Yun Liu and colleagues recently reported the emergence of plasmid-mediatedcolistin resistance in China, raising a great concern around the world (1-5). The mcr-1 gene was originally detected in commensal Escherichia ...

In vitro antimicrobials activity against endemic Acinetobacter baumannii multiresistant clones
(Open Learning on Enteric Pathogens, 2010-03)
BACKGROUND: Multidrug-resistant strains of Acinetobacter baumannii have been reported increasingly around the world. The administration of an association of antibiotics has been proposed to create an active combination and ...
Current scenario of plasmid-mediated colistin resistance in Latin America Escenario actual de la resistencia a la colistina mediada por plásmidos en América LatinaEscenario actual de la resistencia a la colistina mediada por plásmidos en América Latina
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2019-01)
Colistin resistance can occur by chromosomal mutations and by acquisition of plasmid-carrying determinants, mainly mcr-1. In the recent years, we have observed the outburst of this resistance gene in our region. Due to the ...
