Broad-Spectrum Cephalosporin-Resistant Klebsiella spp. Isolated from Diseased Horses in Austria.

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to investigate the diversity of broad-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant spp. isolated from horses in Austria that originated from diseased horses. A total of seven non-repetitive cefotaxime-resistant sp. isolates were obtained during diagnostic activities from autumn 2012 to October 2019. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed. The isolates were genotyped by whole-genome sequencing (WGS). Four out of seven isolates were identified as , two as and one as . All isolates displayed a multi-drug resistant phenotype. The detection of resistance genes reflected well the phenotypic resistance profiles of the respective isolates. All but one isolate displayed the extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) phenotype and carried CTX-M cefotaximases, whereas one isolate displayed an ESBL and AmpC phenotype and carried cephamycinase (CMY)-2 and sulfhydryl variable (SHV)-type b and Temoniera (TEM) β-lactamases. Among isolates, for different sequence types (ST) could be detected (ST147, ST307, ST1228, and a new ST4848). Besides resistance genes, a variety of virulence genes, including genes coding for yersiniabactin were detected. Considering the high proximity between horses and humans, our results undoubtedly identified a public health issue. This deserves to be also monitored in the years to come.

The research article focuses on investigating diverse strains of broad-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Klebsiella species in sick horses in Austria.

Research Objective and Methods

According to the study:

  • The researchers aimed to study the variety of broad-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Klebsiella species that originated from diseased horses in Austria.
  • For this purpose, they collected seven non-repetitive cefotaxime-resistant Klebsiella species isolates from diagnostic activities performed from Autumn 2012 until October 2019.
  • To assess the strains’ resistance to antibiotics, the researchers conducted Antimicrobial susceptibility testing.
  • The isolates collected were then genotyped using a method known as Whole-genome sequencing (WGS).

Research Findings

Several important observations were made in this study:

  • Out of the seven isolates collected, four were identified as Klebsiella pneumoniae, two as Klebsiella oxytoca and one as Klebsiella grimontii.
  • It was discovered that each strain showed signs of resistance to multiple drugs, a condition otherwise known as a multi-drug resistant phenotype.
  • The isolation of different resistance genes accurately represented the respective isolation strains’ resistance profiles.
  • All but one of the isolates exhibited an extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) phenotype and carried CTX-M agent cefotaximases, linked with resistance to antibiotics.
  • One isolate showcased an ESBL and AmpC phenotype, indicating the presence of enzymes degrading antibiotics, and carried cephamycinase (CMY)-2 and sulfhydryl variable (SHV)-type b and Temoniera (TEM) β-lactamases.
  • Four different sequence types (ST) were identified among the Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates: ST147, ST307, ST1228 and an unknown ST which was christened as ST4848.
  • In addition to the resistance genotypes, various virulence genes were spotted in the isolates, including those that code for yersiniabactin – a siderophore that steals iron from host cells and is crucial for bacterial infection in host organisms.

Significance of the Findings

The findings of this study have important implications:

  • The findings shine light on a potential health issue as there is close proximity between horses and humans, increasing the chances of these resistant strains causing infections in humans.
  • The researchers emphasize on the need for continued study and monitoring of these strains in the future.
