Abstract:
Simple Summary: Campylobacter species are among the major causes of bacterial foodborne infections. Here, we investigate, for the first time, class 1 integrons and associated gene cassettes among pan drug-resistant (PDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and multidrug-resistant (MDR) Campylobacter species isolated from livestock animals and humans in Egypt. Our results revealed alarming PDR (2.55%) and inordinate XDR (68.94%) and MDR (28.5%) Campylobacter isolates. None of the examined isolates were pan-susceptible. The existence of a novel gene cassette array, namely aacC5-aadA74 and a putative phage tail tape measure protein on class 1 integrons of Campylobacter species is the most highlighted novelty of the current study. Evidence from this study showed the possibility of Campylobacter–bacteriophage interactions as well as treatment failure in animals and humans due to horizontal gene transfer mediated by class 1 integrons.
