Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between acquired drug resistance-related genes and mobile genetic elements from pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Methods Fifty-three horizontal transfer drug resistance-related genes ( β-lactamases,aminoglycoside and quinolones resistance related) and 12 mobile genetic elements (including zygosity plasmid,transposon,insertion sequence and integron) were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 20 clinical isolates of pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.Index cluster analysis was performed to explore the correlation.Results In 20 strains of pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii,there were 3 types of β-lactamases related genes (TEM-1,ADC-30,OXA-23 ),4 types of aminoglycoside modifying enzyme genes [ aac (3)-Ⅰ,aac(6′)-Ⅰ b,ant( 3″)-Ⅰ and aph( 3′)-Ⅰ ],and 5 kinds of mobile genetic elements ( int Ⅰ 1,tnpU,tnp513,IS26 and ISAba1 ). Index cluster analysis showed high correlations between resistance genes [TEM-1,ADC-30,aac( 6′)-Ⅰ b,ant( 3″)-Ⅰ,abeB,qacE Δ1] and mobile genetic elements ( int Ⅰ 1,tnpU,tnp513,IS26,ISAba1 ).Conclusion Clinical isolated pandrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii carries several acquired drug resistance-related genes and mobile genetic elements,and there may be a close association between them.
