Companion animals as sources of hazardous critically important antimicrobial-resistant Escherichia coli: Genomic surveillance in Shanghai
This study provides the first comprehensive genomic surveillance of critically important antimicrobial (CIA)-resistant Escherichia coli in companion animals, addressing gaps in the understanding of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) transmission dynamics and the environmental dissemination of hazardous resistance genes within urban ecosystems. A total of 244 CIA-resistant Escherichia coli (CIA-EC) isolates were obtained from 730 anal swabs collected across 11 pet hospitals in Shanghai. High-risk zoonotic clones, such as ST410 and ST405, were identified across multiple districts, with blaNDM-5-positive IncX3 plasmids demonstrating exceptional stability, efficient conjugation, and broad host adaptability. These plasmids significantly amplify the global risk of cross-species blaNDM-5 dissemination. Mobile genetic elements (ISKox3, IS5, ISAba125) further facilitated blaNDM-5 transfer, enhancing the persistence and adaptability of these zoonotic pathogens. Additionally, novel sequence types (ST87, ST12624) exhibited resistance to last-resort antimicrobials, including tigecycline (tet(X4)), exacerbating the public health risks. The findings demonstrate that companion animals serve as critical reservoirs at the human-animal-environment interface, facilitating the environmental spread of hazardous resistance elements such as blaNDM-5-positive IncX3 plasmids. Integrating companion animals into One Health AMR surveillance and implementing antimicrobial stewardship are crucial to mitigating the spread of CIA-resistance determinants and preserving the efficacy of last-resort antimicrobials.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Hazardous Materials serves as a global platform for promoting cutting-edge research in the field of Environmental Science and Engineering. Our publication features a wide range of articles, including full-length research papers, review articles, and perspectives, with the aim of enhancing our understanding of the dangers and risks associated with various materials concerning public health and the environment. It is important to note that the term "environmental contaminants" refers specifically to substances that pose hazardous effects through contamination, while excluding those that do not have such impacts on the environment or human health. Moreover, we emphasize the distinction between wastes and hazardous materials in order to provide further clarity on the scope of the journal. We have a keen interest in exploring specific compounds and microbial agents that have adverse effects on the environment.
