Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently H. cinaedi infection has been increasingly reported. We analyzed the mechanism of antimicrobial resistance in H. cinaedi, and identified the mutations conferring resistance to ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin, and b-lactams. Moreover the role of efflux pumps to the antimicrobial resistance in H. cinaedi was demonstrated. To elucidate the pathogenetic factors in enterohepatic Helicobacters, the genomes of H. fennelliae MRY12-0050, which is the first report for H. fennelliae, and H. cinaedi strain MRY08-1234 caused nosocomial infection , were analyzed. The suspected pathogenetic factors in H. cinaedi have been investigated to understand H. cinaedi pathogenicity.
