Whole-genome sequencing of 24 Proteus mirabilis isolates revealed the clonal expansion of two cefoxitin-resistant strains among patients with community-onset infection. These strains harboured bla CMY-2 within a chromosomally located integrative and conjugative element and exhibited multidrug resistance phenotypes. A predominant strain, identified in 18 patients, also harboured the PGI-1 genomic island and associated resistance genes, accounting for its broader antibiotic resistance profile. The identification of these novel multidrug-resistant strains among community-onset infections suggests that they are endemic to this region and represent emergent P. mirabilis lineages of clinical significance.
对24株奇异变形杆菌分离株进行全基因组测序,结果显示在社区获得性感染患者中,两种对头孢西丁耐药的菌株出现了克隆性扩增。这些菌株在一个位于染色体上的整合与接合元件中携带bla CMY-2基因,并表现出多重耐药表型。在18名患者中鉴定出的一株优势菌株还携带PGI-1基因组岛及相关耐药基因,这解释了其更广泛的抗生素耐药谱。在社区获得性感染中发现这些新型多重耐药菌株,表明它们在该地区呈地方性流行,代表了具有临床意义的新出现的奇异变形杆菌谱系。
