Abstract

In Southeast Asia, most antimicrobial resistance (AMR) data on have been generated at the phenotypic level, while insights into the genetic characteristics of AMR and virulence genes remain limited. This study aimed to further characterize AMR isolates carrying plasmid-associated virulence genes in Thailand and neighboring countries. A total of 366 isolates were collected from pigs ( = 265), pork ( = 69), and humans ( = 32) across Thailand, Lao People's Democratic Republic, Cambodia, and Myanmar. Overall, 69.40% ( = 254/366) were multidrug resistant, including resistance to medically important antimicrobials tigecycline, azithromycin, colistin and ciprofloxacin. Whole genome sequencing analysis revealed that five Enteritidis ST11 clinical isolates from different patients in different provinces carried IncFIB/IncFII plasmids with plasmid-associated virulence genes (, , and ), of which three of them (SA615, SA616 and SA617) additionally harbored IncX1 plasmid carrying . Virulence plasmids (pSEVTs) exhibited a close relationship with the pSLT of Typhimurium LT2 except for two absent segments (PSLT056-PSLT057-PSLT059 PSLT060-PSLT061-PSLT062-PSLT063-064-ssB-PSLT067) and () as well as two invert regions, R1 (locus tag PSLT001 to ) and R2 (PSLT025 to with deleted ) in pSEVTs. None of the plasmids were horizontally transferred under ampicillin selective pressure. Phylogenetic analysis of whole genome sequence and virulence plasmids revealed the clonal dissemination of the isolates. The co-existence of virulence and resistance plasmids may complicate antibiotic therapy, highlighting the need to monitor plasmid-associated virulence genes alongside AMR genes in surveillance programs for humans and animals.

摘要

在东南亚,大多数关于抗菌药物耐药性(AMR)的数据是在表型水平上产生的,而对抗菌药物耐药性的遗传特征和毒力基因的了解仍然有限。本研究旨在进一步表征泰国及周边国家携带质粒相关毒力基因的AMR分离株。从泰国、老挝人民民主共和国、柬埔寨和缅甸的猪(n = 265)、猪肉(n = 69)和人类(n = 32)中总共收集了366株分离株。总体而言,69.40%(n = 254/366)对多种药物耐药,包括对重要医学抗菌药物替加环素、阿奇霉素、黏菌素和环丙沙星耐药。全基因组测序分析显示,来自不同省份不同患者的5株肠炎沙门氏菌ST11临床分离株携带IncFIB/IncFII质粒以及质粒相关毒力基因(spvB、spvC和spvR),其中三株(SA615、SA616和SA617)还携带携带mcr-1的IncX1质粒。毒力质粒(pSEVTs)与鼠伤寒沙门氏菌LT2的pSLT表现出密切关系,除了两个缺失片段(PSLT056 - PSLT057 - PSLT059和PSLT060 - PSLT061 - PSLT062 - PSLT063 - 064 - ssB - PSLT067)以及pSEVTs中的两个倒位区域R1(基因座标签PSLT001至PSLT002)和R2(PSLT025至PSLT026且有缺失)。在氨苄青霉素选择压力下,没有质粒发生水平转移。全基因组序列和毒力质粒的系统发育分析揭示了分离株的克隆传播。毒力质粒和耐药性质粒的共存可能会使抗生素治疗复杂化,这突出表明在人类和动物监测计划中,除了AMR基因外,还需要监测质粒相关毒力基因。
