We evaluated the prevalence of impermeability as a mechanism associated with resistance against beta-lactam antibiotics in members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. During a 1-year period, 80 strains were selected from 3,110 routinely isolated strains according to their noticeable cross-resistance pattern to cephalosporins. They were tested for (i) outer membrane nonspecific porins involved in the entry of small hydrophilic molecules; (ii) the MICs of cefepime, cefotaxime, imipenem, and moxalactam; and (iii) beta-lactamase production. Immunological investigations using specific probes showed that 23 of 80 strains presented an alteration of the porin content, most of them expressing an additional resistance mechanism. The prevalence of this porin-deficient phenotype is especially high in Enterobacter aerogenes and concerns 6.4% of the clinical isolates.
我们评估了通透性缺失作为一种与肠杆菌科细菌对β-内酰胺类抗生素耐药相关机制的流行情况。在为期1年的时间里,根据80株菌株对头孢菌素显著的交叉耐药模式,从3110株常规分离菌株中挑选出来。对它们进行了以下检测:(i) 参与小的亲水分子进入的外膜非特异性孔蛋白;(ii) 头孢吡肟、头孢噻肟、亚胺培南和美洛培南的最低抑菌浓度(MIC);以及(iii) β-内酰胺酶的产生。使用特异性探针进行的免疫学研究表明,80株菌株中有23株呈现孔蛋白含量改变,其中大多数表达了额外的耐药机制。这种孔蛋白缺陷表型在产气肠杆菌中的流行率特别高,占临床分离株的6.4%。
