Sensitivity of amoxicillin-resistant Helicobacter pylori to other penicillins.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The sensitivities to penicillins and to a penicillin and beta-lactamase inhibitor combination agent were determined for Helicobacter pylori strains that were sensitive, moderately resistant, or highly resistant to amoxicillin. All strains were resistant to nafcillin and oxacillin. Moderately resistant strains showed an intermediate zone of inhibition to ticarcillin, mezlocillin, piperacillin, and amoxicillin-clavulanic acid. High-level resistance was associated with the smallest zone size for all penicillins tested.

A change in PBP1 is involved in amoxicillin resistance of clinical isolates of Helicobacter pylori.
Reports on the isolation of amoxicillin-resistant Helicobacter pylori are increasing worldwide, which may cause serious problems in eradication therapy. To elucidate the mechanism of amoxicillin resistance of H. pylori, penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) of amoxicillin-resistant strains isolated in Korea were analysed. Three PBPs (66, 63 and 60 kDa) were identified in both amoxicillin-resistant...
متن کاملAlterations in penicillin-binding protein 1A confer resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics in Helicobacter pylori.
Most Helicobacter pylori strains are susceptible to amoxicillin, an important component of combination therapies for H. pylori eradication. The isolation and initial characterization of the first reported stable amoxicillin-resistant clinical H. pylori isolate (the Hardenberg strain) have been published previously, but the underlying resistance mechanism was not described. Here we present evide...

BACKGROUND/AIMS A worldwide increase in amoxicillin resistance in Helicobacter pylori is having an adverse effect on eradication therapy. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of the amoxicillin resistance of H. pylori in terms of amino acid substitutions in penicillin-binding protein 1 (PBP1). METHODS In total, 150 H. pylori strains were isolated from 144 patients with chronic gastrit...

OBJECTIVES To elucidate the relationship between the mutations of penicillin-binding protein (PBP)1, PBP2 and PBP3 and amoxicillin resistance in Helicobacter pylori. METHODS The mutations detected only in clinical amoxicillin-resistant strains were determined by comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of PBP1(HP0597), PBP2(HP1556) and PBP3(HP1565) encoded by the pbp1, ftsI and pbp2 gen...
