In parallel, colistin has massively been used in the veterinary field so that mcr-1 -positive E. coli have spread worldwide in livestock, potentially constituting a reservoir of colistin-resistant isolates that can be further transmitted to humans.Objectives: In France, the mcr-1 gene was frequently identified in E. coli of bovine origin. This genomic study assessed whether French human mcr-1 -positive E. coli might originate or derive from the bovine reservoir.Material and methods: Human (n = 24) and bovine (n = 127) isolates collected between 2011 and 2019 were included and colistin-resistance was confirmed by MICs. The detection of mcr-1 was performed by PCR. Isolates were short-read whole-genome sequenced and a cgMLST-based phylogeny was constructed. The genetic support of mcr-1 was identified using short-read sequences or Southern blots.Results: The mcr-1 gene was carried by a high diversity of genetic backgrounds, among which ST167 and ST10 were the most widespread. No clonally-related isolates between bovines and humans were observed. In bovines, mcr-1 was identified on IncHI2 and IncX4 plasmids and increasingly on the chromosome, while it was also found on IncI2 and p0111 plasmids in humans. <div>Conclusion:<p>Although similar STs (ST744 and ST88) and plasmid types (IncHI2, IncX4) carried mcr-1 , no hypothesis of a transfer from bovines to humans could be supported by the data. Furthermore, the increasing chromosomal location of mcr-1 over time may reflect an animal-specific evolutionary pathway deserving further investigation.</p></div>
