Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a significant pathogen responsible for intestinal infections and foodborne diseases. The rise of antibiotic resistance poses challenge to global public health. Traditional therapy becoming increasingly ineffective, highlighting the urgent need innovative control strategies. This study explores potential bacteriophages as sustainable alternative traditional antibiotics. From 2021 2022, total 183 non-repetitive duck source fecal samples were collected from Mianyang City, Sichuan Province, 126 strains E. isolated. minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test showed that these exhibited high piperacillin (96.8%), tetracycline (88.9%), chloramphenicol (86.5%). It concerning 93.7% isolates are classified multidrug-resistant (MDR), posing threat existing treatment options. 20 isolated soil samples, among which 5 selected further analysis. Bacteriophage YP6 excellent lytic effects on MDR strains, especially strain MY104, well representative serotypes O1 MY51) O18 MY106). identification member Myoviridae family was conducted using transmission electron microscopy, it found have an optimal infection factor 0.1. Bacteriophages exhibit thermal pH stability, maintaining survival at temperatures up 60 °C ranges 4 10. Whole genome sequencing confirmed has double stranded DNA 139,323 base pairs (bp), no or virulence genes found, indicating low possibility horizontal gene transfer. In addition, effectively inhibits formation biofilm, key in chronic infections. vivo experiments Galleria mellonella (G. mellonella) larvae shown protective effect against infection. summary, bacteriophage expected become therapeutic agent due its broad host range, environmental biofilm inhibition properties. Future research should optimize preparations, evaluate safety efficacy animal models, establish clinical application plans field food safety.

Escherichia coli is a major pathogen responsible for calf diarrhea. However, it has developed resistance to many antimicrobial drugs their inappropriate usage. The bacterial quorum sensing system transmits information between bacteria, it's important in regulating virulence, drug and acid so on. This can found Gram-negative bacteria operates through acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) signaling molecules. In this study, type I AHL, N-Octanoyl-L-Homoserine (C8), was added E. growth medium investigate its regulatory functions resistance. After screening out the strains of that showed an obvious effect ofloxacin (OFX), transcriptomic sequencing performed on from sub-inhibitory concentration group plus C8 group, control group. It shows significantly influenced OFX minimum inhibitory tested strain increased. To Analyze transcriptome results identified 415 differentially expressed genes groups, which 201 were up-regulated 214 down. There 125 treated with those C8, 102 23 Finally, adding increased OFX.

β-lactam antibiotics are essential medications for treating human diseases. The spread of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-PE) exists globally in multiple reservoirs and the natural environment poses an immense threat to public health.

Fosfomycin (FOS) is a critical antibiotic for treating multi-drug resistant (MDR) Enterobacteriaceae infections, but its effectiveness jeopardized by the dissemination of plasmids encoding enzymes that modify FOS. Despite prohibition on use in animal breeding China, 100 strains Escherichia coli ( E. ) exhibiting high resistance to FOS (MIC≥512 mg/L) were isolated from samples waterfowl origin collected Hainan, Sichuan, and Anhui. These commonly carried fos A 3 (88/100, 88.0%). In addition, 21 other antimicrobial genes (ARGs) detected these strains, with positivity rates tet A, aphA1 , sul2 folR qnrS bla CTX-M . It noteworthy there was significant positive correlation between A3 (OR = 15.162, 95% CI: 1.875–122.635). The results pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) demonstrated existence multiple dispersed clonal clusters. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) analysis identified 45 ST types, ST48 ST10 representing most dominant clones. conjugation experiments, 53 A-like transconjugants obtained measurable frequency, which strongly may mainly locate different types possessing an efficient transmission ability. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) further showed co-localized degree similarity genetic structure. Of particular interest observation frequently accompanied IS 26 either side gene. This structure play pivotal role horizontal transfer A3. study revealed alarming prevalence delved deeply into characteristics mechanisms discovery plasmid-mediated, transmissible poses threat “One Health”.
