Published: June 2021

The occurrence and characterization of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae from companion animals in Guangzhou, China, are investigated. Six isolates (2.3%, 6/257) were positive for , that is, one , one , and four . Three isolates obtained from the same animal hospital were ST410 and showed identical pulse field gel electrophoresis pattern, resistance profiles, and resistance genes. was located on IncX3 ( = 5) and IncK2 ( = 1) plasmid, respectively. The presence of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae among companion animals needs continued surveillance.

Article Synopsis
  • Melanoma is a severe skin cancer that starts from melanocytes, and existing rodent models have limitations in mirroring human conditions.
  • Researchers have created a transgenic pig model that mimics human melanoma using somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), enabling better study of the disease.
  • This new model allows for the investigation of melanoma development and response to treatments, providing a significant resource for advancing cancer research and drug testing.
