Resumo

Justificativa: Há um forte apelo mundial para controle do uso de antimicrobianos associado a novas abordagens terapêuticas contra infecções multirresistentes, como as ocasionados pelas espécies  E. faecalis e E. faecium, patógenos oportunistas comensais normalmente presentes em infecções relacionadas à assistência à saúde (IRAS). A elevada capacidade de adaptação desses patógenos ao ambiente nosocomial e a aquisição de genes de resistência e virulência estão entre os principais fatores que contribuem para o agravo dessas infecções. CRISPR-Cas atua como um sistema de defesa bacteriano, selecionado evolutivamente devido à associação de bactérias com vírus, presente em algumas linhagens de E. faecalis e E. faecium. Especula-se que CRISPR-Cas poderiam ser empregados em diferentes vetores, inclusive plasmídeos conjugativos, para edição e inativação de genes de resistência. Objetivos: Investigar o uso de CRISPR-Cas em plasmídeos conjugativos como controle de disseminação de linhagens enterocócicas multirresistentes. Metodologia: Trata-se de revisão baseada em escopo, aplicando critérios de seleção e inclusão de estudos, no intervalo temporal entre 2016 a 2021. Resultados e Considerações finais: Ferramentas de edição molecular, como CRISPR-Cas, podem ser promissoras alternativas no controle de infecções multirresistentes e contribuir no controle de disseminação hospitalar. As linhagens que não apresentam este sistema são mais susceptíveis a aquisição de elementos genéticos móveis, adquirindo genes de resistência e virulência. A aplicabilidade de CRISPR-Cas em plasmídeos conjugativos é um método inovador e factível, capaz de interferir na aquisição de elementos genéticos móveis, e consequentemente, a redução de genes de resistência e virulência, tanto no gênero Enterococcus quanto em outros gêneros.
