Antibiotic resistance is increasing among Gram-negative bacteria, prompting the development of new antibiotics as well as alternative treatment approaches. Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemases (KPC) has become a major concern in the treatment of infections, since KPC-producing bacteria are resistant to a number of β -lactam and non β-lactam antibiotics in addition to hydrolyzing carbapenemases. The aim of this study is to examine the synergistic effect of human Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) on KPC producer.

This pathogen can trigger a broad spectrum of diseases, from sepsis and pneumonia to severe skin infections that can be fatal. In this review, we will provide an overview of and discuss the extensive literature on epidemiology, transmission, genetic diversity, evolution and antibiotic resistance strains, particularly methicillin resistant (MRSA).
