Derepressed transfer properties leading to the efficient spread of the plasmid encoding carbapenemase OXA-48

Potron, Anaïs ; Poirel, Laurent ; Nordmann, Patrice

In: Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2013, vol. 58, no. 1, p. 467–471

The current emergence of the carbapenemase OXA-48 among Enterobacteriaceae is related to the spread of a single IncL/M-type plasmid, pOXA-48a. This plasmid harbors the blaOXA-48 gene within a composite transposon, Tn1999, which is inserted into the tir gene, encoding a transfer inhibition protein. We showed that the insertion of Tn1999 into the...

Dissemination of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in France, 2012

Dortet, Laurent ; Cuzon, Gaelle ; Nordmann, Patrice

Objectives: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates (n = 1485) were received at the French Associated National Reference Center for Antibiotic Resistance in 2012 and were characterized for their mechanism of resistance to carbapenems.Methods: Carbapenemase production was detected using the biochemical-based Carba NP test, based on the detection of in vitro hydrolysis of imipenem. All...

Efficacy of Humanized Carbapenem and Ceftazidime Regimens against Enterobacteriaceae Producing OXA-48 Carbapenemase in a Murine Infection Model

Wiskirchen, Dora E. ; Nordmann, Patrice ; Crandon, Jared L. ; Nicolau, David P.

In: Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2014, vol. 58, no. 3, p. 1678–1683

Enterobacteriaceae producing the OXA-48 carbapenemase are emerging worldwide, leaving few treatment options. Efficacy has been demonstrated in vivo with ceftazidime against a ceftazidime-susceptible OXA-48 isolate but not with imipenem despite maintaining susceptibility. The relationship between phenotype and in vivo efficacy was assessed for OXA-48 producers using humanized regimens of 2 g...
