Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates were obtained from 254 patients (202 Japan-born and 52 foreign-born) in Japan. The whole genome sequences and lineages of these isolates were determined and phylogenetic trees were constructed. Of the 254 isolates, 54 were multidrug-resistant. The percentages of multidrug-resistant isolates were significantly higher in foreign-born than Japan-born patients. Nine multidrug-resistant isolates were extensively drug-resistant and obtained from Japan-born patients. A significant number of multidrug-resistant M. tuberculosis strains were isolated from foreign-born patients. Foreign-derived isolates affect the nationwide genetic diversity of drug-resistant M. tuberculosis in Japan. Extensively drug-resistant M. tuberculosis isolates were transmitted among the Japanese population. This study was summarized in the following paper; Mizukoshi F et al: Molecular Epidemiology of Drug-Resistant Mycobacterium Tuberculosis in Japan, mSphere, in press.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
全国で分離された薬剤耐性結核菌の全ゲノム情報を解析し、その性状や分布、遺伝子系統、薬剤耐性に関与する遺伝子について解析した。これらの結果、日本人と外国人の患者由来薬剤耐性結核はそれぞれ異なる系統の分類を示した。外国人由来の多剤耐性結核菌の割合は日本人由来結核菌の割合より優位に大きかった。外国人由来薬剤耐性結核菌は日本全国の薬剤耐性結核の多様性に優位に影響していた。超多剤耐性結核は日本人の間で伝播していることが分かった。これらの基礎データは、日本における薬剤耐性結核対策の基礎資料を提供する。
