| Popis: | Background: This study explored the genetic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates in Egypt by spoligotyping in combination with pncA gene sequencing, spoNC. Methods: First, isolates were selected from 400 isolates positive for M. tuberculosis that referred to Central Labs Ministry of Health and then were subjected to the study analyses. Results: Twenty one isolates were found to be multidrug resistant (MDR) and 29 isolates were sensitive for isonizide (INH) and rifampicine (RIF) after testing by phenotypic drug susceptibility testing (DST) and Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT). Spoligotyping yielded 45 patterns belonging to seven families that previously reported in neighboring countries such as Iraq, Syria, Iran, and Turkey. While four isolates were orphans. Conclusion: Application of spoNC on obtained spoligotype patterns enhances to reduce the clustering rate. Bejing family the predominant (34%) were subdivided by pncA sequence into three sensitive DST pncA wild type, three MDR-DST isolates showing cys14Arg mutation in pncA, two sensitive DST isolates with pncA Gly97Asp mutation, and three sensitive DST pncAVal128Gly mutation. The next most common CASI_DELHI family (16%) were subdivided by pncA sequencing into CASI_DELHI (st 381, MDR) including two pncA silent mutation ser65ser (tcc > tct) and CASI_DELHI (st26, sensitive) which included six pncA (wild-type) results, and Latin-American-Mediterranean 6 family (6%) all had PncA Gly97Asp mutation. We concluded that spoNC provides good snap shot for MDR surveillance and its country origin and performs early identification of outbreaks in Egypt. |
