Description
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae are drugs of last resort for such infections. They are resistant because they produce an commensals and infectious agents. The bacteria can kill up to half of patients who get bloodstream infections.[1][2] Several antimicrobial drugs have been tested for the effective treatment of CRE, 90 percent of bacterial isolates are susceptible to fosfomycin.[3][4][5]
Presentation
In terms of the presentation, we find that the location of the infection determines the symptoms. In pneumonia (lungs) you would find: cough,fever, shortness of breath and nausea.[6][3]
Complications
Among the possible complications of Carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae are the following:kidney infection, lung abscess and sepsis.[7]
Cause 1
Three major classes of enzymes are involved in carbapenem resistance:[3] class A carbapenemases, class B metallo-Beta-lactamases (MBL), and class D Beta-lactamases (OXA). The four known groups of class A carbapenemases are: SME , IMI , GES , and KPC .[8] At the UVA Medical Center, a transfer mechanism of KPC-dependent carbapenem resistance was discovered in the transmission of a plasmid carrying the transposon (Tn4401), which contains the KPC gene, to several bacteria including Enterobacter cloacae, Klebsiella oxytoca, E. coli, and Citrobacter freundii.[9]

Cause 2
Class B metallo-Beta-lactamases are found largely in Gram-negative bacteria and environmental bacteria. The subclasses of MBL enzymes are B1, B2, and B3. MBLs have diverse enzymatic functions and have the ability to hydrolyze Beta-lactam antibiotics.[3]
Cause 3
Class D Beta-lactamases, which hydrolyze oxacillin, provide a good example of the variety of ways that can be used to transfer resistance. The blaOXA genes which encode OXA Beta-lactamases are found on both chromosomes and plasmids, and they have their natural reservoir in environmental bacteria and deep-sea microflora. Insertions in the vicinity of these genes have been shown to increase the strength of their promoters and increase resistance. Because of these characteristics, a wide geographic dissemination of OXA carbapenemase resistance in particular has occurred.[8]
Risk factors
Hospitals are primary transmission sites for CRE-based infections. Up to 75 percent of hospital admissions attributed to CRE were from long-term care facilities or from another hospital.[10]
Mechanism 1
In general, carbapenem, a Beta-lactam antibiotic, targets cells by inhibiting transpeptidases. This prevents synthesis of peptidoglycan, a necessary structural component, leading to cell lysis. Resistance to carbapenem among Gram-negative bacteria in general can be acquired through several mechanisms.[11][12] On such mechanism is the active transport of carbapenem drugs out of the cell, augmented drug efflux, which has been observed in some resistant species.[11][13]
Mechanism 2
Another mechanism of resistance is mutation in or loss of outer membrane porins, preventing antibiotics from entering the cells.[14] Changes within the porin protein gene cause a frameshift, altering the porin structure and function.[14] Changes in the porin protein hinder the diffusion of carbapenem and other antibiotics into the periplasm.[15]
Mechanism 3
CRE produce carbapenemases, a form of β-lactamase.[16] These enzymes cleave the β-lactam ring, an essential component of β-lactam antibiotics that are recognized by and bound to PBPs. Carbapenemases are divided into different classes, depending on the structure of the enzyme and the mechanism by which they hydrolyze the β-lactam ring. [17][18][19]
