Tigecycline has been regarded as one of the most important last-resort antibiotics for the treatment of infections caused by extensively drug-resistant (XDR) bacteria, particularly carbapenem- and colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (C-C-RKP). However, reports on tigecycline resistance have been growing. Overall, ~ 4000 K. pneumoniae clinical isolates were collected over a five-year period (2017-2021), in which 240 isolates of C-C-RKP were investigated. Most of these isolates (91.7%) were resistant to tigecycline. Notably, a high-risk clone of ST16 was predominantly identified, which was associated with the co-harboring of bla and bla genes. Their major mechanism of tigecycline resistance was the overexpression of efflux pump acrB gene and its regulator RamA, which was caused by mutations in RamR (M184V, Y59C, I141T, A28T, C99/C100 insertion), in RamR binding site (PI) of ramA gene (C139T), in MarR (S82G), and/or in AcrR (L154R, R13Q). Interestingly, four isolates of ST147 carried the mutated tet(A) efflux pump gene. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the prevalence and mechanisms of tigecycline resistance in C-C-RKP isolated from Thailand. The high incidence of tigecycline resistance observed among C-C-RKP in this study reflects an ongoing evolution of XDR bacteria against the last-resort antibiotics, which demands urgent action.
