Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing E. coli (ESBL-E. coli) is a type of bacteria that can cause serious infections and is a major contributor to multidrug resistance.[11][12]

ESBLs are enzymes that break down certain antibiotics, making them difficult to manage. ESBL-producing bacteria causes infections in healthcare settings(hospitals and nursing homes).[11]

ESBLs are a unwelcome influence worldwide, with 1.5 billion individuals colonized with ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae per a 2017 review.[13]

Signs and symptoms

In terms of the presentation of infections due to Extended-spectrum β-lactamases-producing E. coli depend on type of infection,in the case of gut infection we find:[4]

Cause

a-e)Genetic structures harbouring genes encoding ESBLs[14]

Extended-spectrum β-lactamases are enzymes that neutralize β-lactam antibiotics by inactivating the β-lactam ring. This mechanism makes E. coli as well as other bacteria resistant to many antibiotics. [2]

ESBLs are produced by mutations in genes for TEM-1, TEM-2, or SHV-1; these mutations change the amino acid configuration around the active site of enzymes. [12]

  • TEM-1 is a β-lactamase enzyme that makes bacteria resistant to antibiotics (penicillins and early cephalosporins). As to the structure TEM-1 is a monomeric protein with two domains and catalytic cleft where a sulfate anion ligand binds. TEM-1 is the most common β-lactamase in Gram-negative bacteria.[15][16]
  • TEM-2 is a plasmid-mediated beta-lactamase gene that encodes enzyme closely related to TEM-1,[14]and is the same in biochemical properties, except for one single amino acid substitution[17]
  • SHV-1 is a broad-spectrum beta-lactamase enzyme associated with antibiotic resistance. It is classified as a class A, group 2b beta-lactamase. It is similar to TEM-1, but more active against ampicillin[18]

Risk factors

In terms of risk factors for extended-spectrum β-lactamases -producing E. coli we find:[5][6]

  • Recent antibiotic use, especially fluoroquinolones
  • Age (over 65 )
  • Recent hospitalization or ICU

Diagnosis

PCR

The evaluation of Extended-spectrum β-lactamases producing E. coli involves the following:[7][8]

  • Disk diffusion assay
  • Combination disk test

Prevention

We find that the prevention of ESBL-E. coli is done via the following:[9][1]

Treatment

In terms of the management of ESBL- E. coli we find that nitrofurantoin and fosfomycin are used (urinary infection). For infections outside of the urinary tract the recommendation is meropenem, imipenem-cilastatin, ertapenem.[10][4]

Prevalence

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the U.S. there were 197,400 cases and 9,100 estimated deaths in the country in 1997[11]

The prevalence of Extended-spectrum β-lactamases producing E. coli in the general population varies between countries, e.g. approximately 6% in Germany[19] and France,[20] 13% in Saudi Arabia,[21] and 63% in Egypt.[22]

History

Extended-spectrum β-lactamases were first discovered in the 1980s, and the first classification scheme for β-lactamases that recognized ESBLs was established by Karen Bush (1989)[14]
