ABSTRACT
Antibiotic resistance is a global health issue, with Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) posing a particular threat due to its ability to acquire resistance to multiple drug classes rapidly. OXA-232 is a carbapenemase that confers resistance to carbapenems, a class of antibiotics often used as a last resort for treating severe bacterial infections. The study reports the earliest known identification of six OXA-232-producing KP strains that were isolated in Zhejiang, China, in 2008 and 2009 within a hospital, two years prior to the first reported identification of OXA-232 in France. The four KP strains carry the OXA-232 gene and exhibit hypervirulent loci, suggesting a broader temporal and geographical spread and integration of this resistance and virulence than previously recognized with implications for public health. Global analysis of all OXA-232-bearing KP strains revealed that OXA-232-encoding plasmids are conservative, while the strains were very diverse suggesting the plasmid mediated transmission of this carbapenemase genes. Importantly, a large proportion of the OXA-232-bearing KP strains also carried virulence plasmids, in particular the recent emergence of ST15 type of KP that carried both OXA-232-encoding plasmids and hypervirulent (hv) plasmids in China since 2019, highlighting the importance of the emergence of this type of KP strains in clinical setting. The early detection and investigations of OXA-232 in these strains warrants the retrospective studies to uncover the true timeline of antibiotic resistance spread, which could provide valuable insights for shaping future strategies to tackle the global health crisis.
