Objective:To analyze the drug resistance status of Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MTB)at a hospital in Xiamen over the past decade. Methods:Sputum culture-positive specimens of tuberculosis patients from Xiamen Xinglin Hospital from 2015 to 2024 were collected retrospectively. Isolates were identified as MTB complex and subjected to drug susceptibility testing. Drug resistance patterns and trends over the study period were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Chi-square trend tests in SPSS 27.0 and GraphPad Prism 8.0.Results:Among 3 883 MTB isolates analyzed,1 132(29.15%)exhibited resistance to at least one drug. The highest rates of resistance to individual first-line drugs were observed for isoniazid(INH,16.04%),streptomycin(SM,15.43%),and rifampicin(RFP,12.28%). Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis(MDR-TB)was identified in 380 isolates(9.79%). The predominant MDR resistance patterns were INH+RFP+SM(2.34%),INH+RFP(1.65%),and INH+RFP+SM+ethambutol(EMB)(1.03%). Polyresistance was found in 188 isolates(4.84%),the predominant patterns were INH+SM(1.49%),INH+fluoroquinolone(FQs)(0.31%),and INH+para-aminosalicylic acid(PAS)(0.31%). Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis(XDR-TB)was detected in 49 isolates(1.26%). From 2015 to 2024,significant decreasing trends were observed for overall drug resistance( χ2=8.858, P=0.003),MDR( χ2=15.692, P<0.001),and RFP resistance( χ2=21.627, P<0.001). In contrast,fluoroquinolone(FQs)resistance showed no significant trend( χ2=0.149, P=0.699). Among RFP resistant and MDR isolates,FQs resistance rates were notably high at 33.12%(158/477)and 36.84%(140/380),respectively. Conclusions:The MTB resistance situation in the hospital has gradually declined in the past 10 years,but the resistance situation remains severe,and clinical attention needs to be strengthened on the use of FQs.

[摘 要] 目的:探讨NOD样受体蛋白3(NLRP3)炎症小体的活化在子宫内膜异位症(EMT)进展为EMT相关性卵巢癌(EAOC)过程中的作用及其机制。方法:选取2018年4月至2019年6月上海市长宁区幼保健院收治的EAOC、EMT、正常子宫内膜(CON组)组织标本各15例及患者的临床资料,利用免疫组织化学染色法、WB法检测EAOC、EMT和CON组织中NLRP3、caspase-1和IL-1β及含BRCA1/BRCA2的复杂亚基3(BRCC3)的表达水平。构建过表达BRCC3质粒和si-NLRP3质粒并转染EMT细胞CRL-7566,通过WB法检测转染后细胞中BRCC3蛋白的表达水平,利用MTT法、流式细胞术及Transwell实验分别检测转染后细胞增殖、凋亡、迁移与侵袭能力的变化。对过表达BRCC3组细胞进行干扰NLRP3实验,通过WB法检测干扰后BRCC3和NLRP3蛋白的表达水平,检测干扰后细胞增殖、凋亡、迁移与侵袭能力的变化。结果:EAOC和EMT组织中NLRP3、caspase-1、IL-1β和BRCC3的表达水平较CON组均呈明显升高(均P<0.01),且EAOC组织中NLRP3与BRCC3的表达呈正相关(r=0.65,P<0.01)。在CRL-7566细胞中过表达BRCC3显著促进细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭并抑制细胞凋亡(均P<0.01),敲减NLRP3则抑制CRL-7566细胞的上述表型(均P<0.01),过表达BRCC3增强NLRP3的表达水平(P<0.01),而干扰BRCC3则抑制NLRP3表达(P<0.01);干扰NLRP3可以部分逆转BRCC3对细胞凋亡的抑制作用(P<0.01)、对细胞迁移(P<0.05)和侵袭(P<0.01)的促进作用。结论:EAOC和EMT组织中NLRP3和BRCC3均呈高表达,过表达BRCC3可促进CRL-7566细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭并抑制细胞凋亡,与EMT向EAOC转化有关,BRCC3/NLRP3是潜在的EAOC炎癌转化预测标志物及治疗靶点。
