description | Objectives: The present study was aimed to investigate the
antibiotic resistance, virulence potential and phylogenetic grouping
of ESBL-producing uropathogenic Escherichia coli (EP-UPEC)
isolated from long-term hospitalized patients.
Materials and Methods: EP-UPEC isolates from September
2013 to June 2014 at a tertiary care hospital of China were
screened for ESBL-production by the double disk diffusion test.
Isolates with ESBL-phenotype were further characterized by
antibiotic resistance testing, PCR of different ESBL and virulence
genes, and phylogenetic grouping.
Results: One hundred and twenty EP-UPEC were isolated from
long-term hospitalized patients. All EP-UPEC isolates were resistant
to Ampicillin, Cefazolin, Cefuroxime, Cefotaxime, Cefoperazone and
Ceftriaxone, and the majority of EP-UPEC isolates were resistant
to Piperacillin (82.5%), Ciprofloxacin (81.2%), TrimethoprimSulfamethoxazole (72.5%). The isolates showed the highest
sensitivity against Imipenem (98.4%), Piperacillin/tazobactam
(96.7%), Cefoperazone/sulbactam (91.7%), Amikacin (90.8%)
and Cefepime (75.8%). Nine different ESBL genotype patterns
were observed and CTX-M type was the most prevalent ESBL
genotype (42.5%, 51/120). Majority of EP-UPEC isolates possess
more than one ESBL genes. EP-UPEC isolates belonged mainly
to phylogenetic group B2(36.7%) and D(35.0%). The prevalence
of traT, ompT, iss, PAI, afa, fimH and papC were 75.8%, 63.3%,
63.3%, 60.8%, 40.8%, 19.2% and 6.7%, respectively. The number
of virulence genes (VGs) detected was significantly higher in group
B2 than in group A (ANOVA, p<0.001), group B1(ANOVA, p= 0.012)
and D (ANOVA, p<0.001).
Conclusions: EP-UPEC strains showed multidrug resistance and
co-resistance to other non β-lactam antibiotics. CTX-M was the
most prevalent ESBL genotype and majority of EP-UPEC strains
more than one ESBL genes. EP-UPEC strains belonged mainly to
phylogenetic group B2 and D, and most of the virulence genes
were more prevalent in group B2. |
