Article information

A pesar de que la mayoría de los mecanismos de resistencia implicados en las enterobacterias se conocen con bastante detalle, quedan aún muchos aspectos por determinar, especialmente cuando se intenta predecir la respuesta clínica. El patrón de resistencia observado en el antibiograma de un microorganismo concreto debe ser la suma del patrón de resistencia natural característico de la especie más las resistencias adquiridas. El principal mecanismo de resistencia a los betalactámicos y aminoglicósidos en enterobacterias es el enzimático, donde cada enzima reconoce un/os determinados betalactámicos o aminoglicósidos, respectivamente. Ello, se traduce en un patrón de resistencia concreto que permite deducir la/las enzimas implicadas. Sin embargo la resistencia enzimática no es el único mecanismo y muy frecuentemente el patrón observado es multifactorial. La resistencia a las quinolonas se debe a mutaciones puntuales y secuenciales, que se pueden ir seleccionando con fluoroquinolonas inicialmente activas e incrementar escalonadamente su resistencia.

Resistencia

Many of the resistance mechanisms of enterobacteria to antimicrobial agents are well understood; nevertheless several aspects remain unsolved, particularly with regard to prediction of clinical response. The resistance pattern observed in the antibiogram of a specific organism should be the sum of the natural resistance pattern, characteristic of the species, plus the acquired resistance. In enterobacteria the principal mechanism of resistance to beta lactams and aminoglycosides is enzyme production, Each enzyme recognizes one or more specific beta lactam or aminoglycoside, as a substrate. This translates as a specific resistance phenotype that allows one to infer the enzyme(s) implicated. Enzyme resistance is not, however, the only mechanism of resistance to these agents; often the pattern observed is multifactorial. Resistance to quinolones is due to point and sequence mutations which may be selected by initially active fluoroquinolones and cause a stepwise increase of resistance.
