The increase in the level of quinolone resistance of Haemophilus influenzae clinical isolates during ofloxacin therapy of a patient with recurrent respiratory infections was investigated. The first isolate (MIC of ciprofloxacin of 2 microg/ml) and the second isolate (MIC of 32 microg/ml) belonged to the same clone, as shown by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, and the increase in the resistance level was associated with a substitution in Ser-84 to Arg in the ParC protein. These results emphasize the potential risk of development of quinolone-resistant H. influenzae during fluoroquinolone therapy in patients with recurrent respiratory infection.
对一名复发性呼吸道感染患者进行氧氟沙星治疗期间,流感嗜血杆菌临床分离株喹诺酮耐药水平的增加情况进行了调查。如脉冲场凝胶电泳所示,首个分离株(环丙沙星的最低抑菌浓度为2微克/毫升)和第二个分离株(最低抑菌浓度为32微克/毫升)属于同一克隆,耐药水平的增加与ParC蛋白中第84位丝氨酸替换为精氨酸有关。这些结果强调了复发性呼吸道感染患者在氟喹诺酮治疗期间发生耐喹诺酮流感嗜血杆菌的潜在风险。
