Emergence of hypervirulent and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from 2014 - 2021 in Central and Eastern China: a molecular, biological, and epidemiological study.
Background: In recent years, the hypervirulent and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae has been increasingly reported worldwide. The objective of this study was to compare the antibiotic resistance and virulence profiles of carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent K.pneumoniae (CR-hvKP) and hypervirulent carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae (hv-CRKP) and identify the prevailing strain in clinical settings.
Methods: In this study, hv-CRKP or CR-hvKP were identified based on the results of whole-genome analysis (WGS), multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and the antimicrobial susceptibility testing. We then compared antibiotic resistance and virulence profiles between CR-hvKP and hv-CRKP through the antimicrobial susceptibility testing and a series of virulence experiments including biofilm formation ability detection method, the resistance test against human serum, siderophore production test, neutrophil phagocytosis assay and Galleria mellonella infection model. Additionally, pathway enrichment analysis was conducted to assess the effect of SNPs on the phenotype.
Results: In this study, we categorized 17.4% of hypervirulent and carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae strains as CR-hvKP and 82.6% as hv-CRKP. Among them, 84.2% (16/19) of CR-hvKP strains harboring carbapenemase genes exhibited lower imipenem and meropenem MIC values compared to hv-CRKP strains. The virulence potential of hv-CRKP and CR-hvKP was confirmed by using virulence experiments in vitro and in vivo, showing that virulence of the CR-hvKP strains was comparable to that of hv-CRKP strains. Notably, the 90 hv-CRKP strains were classified into 3 different ST types and 8 capsule types, each showing varying degrees of resistance and virulence. We observed that subclonal replacement was within the predominant hv-CRKP clone, with the ST11-KL64 strain, characterized by high-level resistance and virulence emerging as the currently prevailing subclone, replacing ST11-KL47. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that pathways associated with the citrate cycle (TCA cycle), glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, glutathione metabolism, two-component regulatory system, and folate metabolism were significantly enriched among the group expressing different levels of capsular polysaccharides.
Conclusions: The hv-CRKP strains exhibited a greater survival advantage in the hospital environment than CR-hvKP strains. Notably, the ST11-KL64 hv-CRKP strain which displayed a high level of resistance and hypervirulence, warrants the most clinical vigilance.
