BACKGROUND: Colistin, a polymyxin antibiotic, serves as a crucial defense against multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria, despite its nephrotoxicity. However, the plasmid-mediated mobilization of the polymyxin resistance gene, mcr-1, presents a significant public health threat. The widespread use of disinfectants has resulted in Escherichia coli (E. coli) carrying mcr-1 also showing disinfectant resistance. The aim of this study is to investigate the distribution of disinfectant genes and resistance to disinfectants in mcr-1-carring E coli from children in the South China.
METHODS: We evaluated the distribution of twelve disinfectant-resistance genes by PCR. Evaluated the correlation between disinfectant-resistance genes and resistance to disinfectants and antibiotics. We also examined the correlation between the strains' biofilm formation and the presence of disinfectant-resistance genes. Bioinformatic tools were employed to analyze resistance genes, virulence genes, and insertion sequences. Five strains were randomly selected to examine the effects of sub-inhibitory concentration (sub-MIC) of 8 disinfectants on the expression of the mcr-1 gene by qRT-PCR.
RESULTS: The most prevalent of the nine biocide resistance genes were mdfA, sugE(c), ydgE, and ydgF (n = 21; all 100 %). The qacG, qacF, sugE(p) and tehA gene was not detected. Furthermore, benzalkonium chloride (BC) and potassium hydrogen persulfate (PMPS)-based disinfectants were effective against all mcr-1-carrying E. coli strains. The majority of mcr-1 were distributed among the InHI2 plasmid types, although three strains lacked mcr-1 on their plasmids. Biofilm formation was observed in 48 % of the strains. emrD and sitABCD showed significant associations with the susceptibility of the strains to 84 disinfectants (P of 0.0351 and 0.0300). In addition, sitABCD was significantly associated with susceptibility to povidone-iodine (PVP-I) (P value of 0.0062). Compared to the untreated group, stimulation with sub-MIC of peracetic acid (PAA) and PVP-I resulted in decreased or increased mcr-1 expression in five E. coli strains, respectively (P of 0.0011 for PAA and P of 0.0476 for PVP-I).
CONCLUSION: BC and PMPS based disinfectants were effective against all mcr-1 carrying E. coli strains. Most of the mcr-1 genes were distributed among the InHI2 plasmid types. The emrD and sitABCD genes are highly associated with resistance to 84 disinfectants, and the sitABCD gene was highly associated with resistance to PVP-I. PVP-I selective pressure may encourage the maintenance of mcr-1 gene in E. coli.
