[Molecular mechanisms of cephalosporin resistance in Gram-negative bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family]. 2004

S V Sidorenko, and A G Berezin, and D V Ivanov

Extended spectrum beta lactamase genes were detected by the PCR in 87.6% of 231 Enterobacteriaceae strains isolated in medical institutions of Moscow, St. Petersburg, Tomsk and Nazran that showed a decrease in their susceptibility to 3rd generation cephalosporins. Alone or in various combinations TEM type beta lactamases were detected in 43.3% of the isolates, 46.8 and 51.2% of the isolates produced SHV type and CTX type beta lactamases respectively. Combinations of 2 and 3 different determinants were detected in 40 and 14% of the isolates respectively. Production of class C beta lactamases was suspected in 28% of the isolates by their resistance to cefoxitin. The gene of ACT type beta lactamase was detected in 1 strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae and the gene of CMY type beta lactamase was detected in 1 strain of Proteus mirabilis. By the NCCLS 100% of the isolates was susceptible to meropenem, 14% was susceptible to cefotaxime, 64% was susceptible to cefepime, 81% was susceptible to cefoperazone/sulbactam, 47% was susceptible to gentamicin, 57% was susceptible to amikacin and 36% was susceptible to ciprofloxacin.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004755 Enterobacteriaceae A family of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria that do not form endospores. Its organisms are distributed worldwide with some being saprophytes and others being plant and animal parasites. Many species are of considerable economic importance due to their pathogenic effects on agriculture and livestock. Coliform Bacilli,Enterobacteria,Ewingella,Leclercia,Paracolobactrum,Sodalis
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man

D001618 beta-Lactamases Enzymes found in many bacteria which catalyze the hydrolysis of the amide bond in the beta-lactam ring. Well known antibiotics destroyed by these enzymes are penicillins and cephalosporins. beta-Lactamase,beta Lactamase,beta Lactamases
D012426 Russia A country located in north Asia bordering the Arctic Ocean, extending from Europe (the portion west of the Urals) to the North Pacific Ocean. The capital is Moscow. Russian S.F.S.R.,Russian Federation (Europe),Russian SFSR
D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.
