Prevalence and molecular characterization of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and emergence of blaNDM gene
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major cause of hospital-acquired infections, with increasing multidrug resistance. This study aimed to evaluate antimicrobial resistance patterns, assess phenotypic metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) detection, and investigate key resistance genes (blaNDM, blaIMP, blaVIM, and blaOXA-10) in clinical isolates. A total of 472 clinical samples were collected from three major hospitals in Urmia, Iran, resulting in the identification of 81 confirmed P. aeruginosa isolates. Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested using the disk diffusion method, and MBL production was assessed through four phenotypic tests (CDT-IPM, DDST-IPM, CDT-CAZ, and DDST-CAZ). Resistance genes were confirmed using both uniplex and multiplex PCR. The highest resistance was observed against cefoxitin (93.8 %) and meropenem (60.0 %), while colistin and amikacin remained the most effective agents. Among the phenotypic tests, DDST-IPM demonstrated the highest sensitivity (100 %), but showed limited specificity (57 %). CDT-IPM showed comparable specificity. In contrast, CDT-CAZ and DDST-CAZ exhibited lower specificity and variable sensitivity. PCR results showed that blaOXA-10 was present in 85.7 % of carbapenem-resistant isolates, followed by blaVIM (73.5 %), blaIMP (53.0 %), and blaNDM (38.8 %). The detection of colistin-resistant strains and the co-occurrence of multiple MBL genes raise concerns about treatment limitations and highlight the need for better diagnostics and resistance monitoring.

期刊介绍:
Gene Reports publishes papers that focus on the regulation, expression, function and evolution of genes in all biological contexts, including all prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as well as viruses. Gene Reports strives to be a very diverse journal and topics in all fields will be considered for publication. Although not limited to the following, some general topics include: DNA Organization, Replication & Evolution -Focus on genomic DNA (chromosomal organization, comparative genomics, DNA replication, DNA repair, mobile DNA, mitochondrial DNA, chloroplast DNA). Expression & Function - Focus on functional RNAs (microRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, mRNA splicing, alternative polyadenylation) Regulation - Focus on processes that mediate gene-read out (epigenetics, chromatin, histone code, transcription, translation, protein degradation). Cell Signaling - Focus on mechanisms that control information flow into the nucleus to control gene expression (kinase and phosphatase pathways controlled by extra-cellular ligands, Wnt, Notch, TGFbeta/BMPs, FGFs, IGFs etc.) Profiling of gene expression and genetic variation - Focus on high throughput approaches (e.g., DeepSeq, ChIP-Seq, Affymetrix microarrays, proteomics) that define gene regulatory circuitry, molecular pathways and protein/protein networks. Genetics - Focus on development in model organisms (e.g., mouse, frog, fruit fly, worm), human genetic variation, population genetics, as well as agricultural and veterinary genetics. Molecular Pathology & Regenerative Medicine - Focus on the deregulation of molecular processes in human diseases and mechanisms supporting regeneration of tissues through pluripotent or multipotent stem cells.
