ॐ SUPERBUG - New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase

Published by The Name is Bizit | under on 7:11 PM
New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Klebsiella pneumoniae, the bacterium in which NDM-1 was first identified.
New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM-1)[1] is an enzyme that makes bacteria resistant to a broad range of beta-lactam antibiotics. These include the antibiotics of the carbapenem family, which are a mainstay for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections. The gene for NDM-1 is one member of a large gene family that encodes beta-lactamase enzymes called carbapenemases. Bacteria that produce carbapenemases are often referred to in the news media as "superbugs" because infections caused by them are difficult to treat. Such bacteria are usually only susceptible to polymyxins and tigecycline.[2]
NDM-1 was first detected in a Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate from a Swedish patient of Indian origin in 2008[3]. It was later detected in bacteria in India, Pakistan, the United Kingdom, the United States,[4] Canada,[5] Japan[6] and Brazil.[7] The most common bacteria that make this enzyme are Gram negative such as Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, but the gene for NDM-1 can spread from one strain of bacteria to another by horizontal gene transfer.

Enzyme function:-
Structure of the carbapenem backbone.
Carbapenems are a class of beta-lactam antibiotics which are capable of killing most bacteria by inhibiting the synthesis of one of their cell wall layers. The carbapenems were developed to overcome antibiotic resistance mediated by bacterial beta-lactamase enzymes. However, the blaNDM-1 gene produces NDM-1, which is a carbapenemase beta-lactamase - an enzyme that hydrolyzes and inactivates these carbapenem antibiotics.
Carbapenemases are particularly dangerous resistance mechanisms, since they can inactivate a wide range of different antibiotics.[8] The NDM-1 enzyme is one of the class B metallo-beta-lactamase; other types of carbapenemase are class A or class D beta-lactamases.[9] (The class A Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) is currently the most common carbapenemase, which was first detected in North Carolina, USA, in 1996 and has since spread worldwide.[10] A later publication indicated that Enterobacteriaceae that produce KPC were becoming common in the United States.[11])
The resistance conferred by this gene (blaNDM-1) therefore aids the expansion of bacteria that carry it throughout a human host, since they will face less opposition/competition from populations of antibiotic-sensitive bacteria, which will be diminished by the original antibacterial treatment.


Origin and spread:-
The NDM-1 enzyme was named after New Delhi, the capital city of India, as it was first described by Yong et al. in December 2009 in a Swedish national who fell ill with an antibiotic-resistant bacterial infection that he acquired in India.[12] The infection was unsuccessfully treated in a New Delhi hospital and after the patient's repatriation to Sweden, a carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strain bearing the novel gene was identified. The authors concluded that the new resistance mechanism "clearly arose in India, but there are few data arising from India to suggest how widespread it is."[12] In March 2010 a study in a hospital in Mumbai found that most carbapenem-resistant bacteria isolated from patients carried the blaNDM-1 gene.[13]
In May 2010, a case of infection with E. coli expressing NDM-1 was reported in Coventry in the United Kingdom.[14] The patient was a man of Indian origin who had visited India 18 months previously, where he had undergone dialysis. In initial assays the bacteria was fully resistant to all antibiotics tested, while later tests found that it was susceptible to tigecycline and colistin. The authors warned that international travel and patients' use of multiple countries' healthcare systems could lead to the "rapid spread of NDM-1 with potentially serious consequences".
As of June 2010, there were three reported cases of Enterobacteriaceae isolates bearing this newly described resistance mechanism in the US, the CDC stated that "All three U.S. isolates were from patients who received recent medical care in India."[15] However, US experts stated that it is unclear if this strain is any more dangerous than existing antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, which are already common in the USA.[16]
Structure of colistin, one of the few antibiotics able to treat NDM-1 positive bacterial infections.
In July 2010, a team in New Delhi reported a cluster of three cases of Acinetobacter baumannii bearing blaNDM-1 that were found in the intensive care unit of a hospital in Chennai, India in April 2010. As previously, the bacteria were fully resistant to all the aminoglycoside β-lactam and quinolone antibiotics, but were susceptible to tigecycline and colistin. This particularly broad spectrum of antibiotic resistance was heightened by the strain bearing expressing several different resistance genes in addition to blaNDM-1.[17]
A study by a multi-national team was published in the August 2010 issue of the journal The Lancet Infectious Diseases. This examined the emergence and spread of bacteria carrying the blaNDM-1 gene. This reported on 37 cases in the United Kingdom, 44 isolates with NDM-1 in Chennai, 26 in Haryana and 73 in various other sites in Pakistan and India.[1] The authors' analysis of the strains showed that many carried blaNDM-1 on plasmids, which will allow the gene to be readily transferred between different strains of bacteria by horizontal gene transfer. All the isolates were resistant to multiple different classes of antibiotics, including beta-lactam antibiotics, fluoroquinolones, and aminoglycosides, but most were still susceptible to the polymyxin antibiotic colistin.
On August 21, 2010, Ontario, Canada had its first confirmed case of the "superbug" in Brampton. There were other confirmed cases in British Columbia and Alberta.[18]
In early August 2010, a chemical compound GSK 299423, was found to significantly fight against antibiotic-resistant bacteria by making such bacteria unable to reproduce, citing a likely treatment to the NDM-1 strain.[19][20][21][22]
On September 6, 2010, Japan detected its first ever case of the NDM-1 enzyme. In May 2009, a Japanese man in his 50's who had recently returned from vacation in India was struck with a fever and hospitalized, later making a full recovery. Hospital officials confirmed that tests carried out after the patients recovery were positive for the NDM-1 enzyme.[23]


Indian response:-
The Indian health ministry has disputed the conclusion of the August 2010 Lancet study that the gene originated in India, describing this conclusion as "unfair" and stating that Indian hospitals are perfectly safe for treatment.[24][25] Indian politicians have described linking this new drug resistance gene to India as “malicious propaganda” and blamed multinational corporations for what they describe as selective malignancy.[24][26] A Bharatiya Janata Party politician has instead argued that the journal article is bogus and represented an attempt to scare medical tourists away from India.[27] The Indian Ministry of Health released a statement "strongly refut[ing]" naming the enzyme "New Delhi".[28] The primary author of the 2010 Lancet study, who is based in the University of Madras, has stated that he does not agree with the part of the article that advises people to avoid elective surgeries in India.[29]
In contrast, an editorial in the March 2010 issue of the Journal of Association of Physicians of India blamed the emergence of this gene on the widespread misuse of antibiotics in the Indian healthcare system, stating that Indian doctors have "not yet taken the issue of antibiotic resistance seriously" and noting little control over the prescription of antibiotics by doctors and even pharmacists.[30] The Times of India states that there is general agreement among experts that India needs both an improved policy to control the use of antibiotics and a central registry of antibiotic-resistant infections.[29]


First death
In August 2010, the first reported death due to a bacteria expressing the NDM-1 enzyme was recorded as a Belgian man who had become infected while being treated in a hospital in Pakistan. He died despite being administered colistin, a powerful antibiotic. A doctor involved in his treatment said, "He was involved in a car accident during a trip to Pakistan. He was hospitalised with a major leg injury and then repatriated to Belgium, but he was already infected".[31] [32]

Well I will not discuss about how the numbers are calculated, there are more then hundreds of website which you can GOOGLE. Probably you already know how to get those number for you.
All what I want to share is my feeling about this numerology or astrology practice, does it really work?   well I haven't tried it yet and if I get time I will try it. I feel like as we can see two side of each coin and describe the coin seeing from both side, numerology also work the same way. The range of description provided to all people will cover almost all the expect of life. My MOM once consulted astrologer about me and my career with my so called "janam kundali", trust me, it was a disaster, actually a big disaster, bigger then what you can imagine.  Like today morning when I was listen to radio Fm , some famous numerologist, (what a stupid time pass)Student calling her to know which college to join and which stream to join in college, "shall we go for B tech, BE or BCA".."blah blah".."in which field can we shine more?"... "etc etc"...Most of the time when life get tough , when things do not happen as per our plan and desire, we tend to lean toward all such thing like numerology and astrology. we finish our college studies, BE, B TECH certificate in hand, then finding ourselves running everywhere for a JOB. Things get more worse when you get disqualified just cause the branch you studied are not on demand. People start asking several question, why this why that? Then you start feeling that theres something holding you back to get a JOB, then you search for that something and then you feel that its you who is not trying hard enough to get a job, then you feel its like you don't want to try enough, at beginning you try, you fail then you loose hope then start searching stylish answer for your failure.Everyone advice for higher studies and you feel like its been the biggest mistake of your life to choose that degree course in past but the same "you" was proud 3 - 4 year back for choosing the same degree course and now you are not proud enough to join the higher studies fearing the same consequences. Actually you should be proud of it, you have completed your graduation and have the certificate in hand, Steve and Bill :)>-was never lucky like you guys. So cheer up if u have finished your B tech or BE or graduation.<:-P
we are what we think, so take care of your thoughts.
All it matter is believe, you have to believe in yourself, it can change your life. Believe in yourselves or the numbers or the religions, the choice is yours. 
“The greatest religion is to be true to your own nature. Have faith in yourselves!”
Everyone has choice to make, don't let others make the choice for you.
