چکیده انگلیسی
Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) is a major cause of nontuberculous mycobacteria infection and the incidence of MAH infections is increasing in many countries. This study aimed at determining the VNTR-based genetic diversity and the susceptibility to clarithromycin of a collection of 71 MAH human strains isolated in the last seven years. The VNTR analysis, revealing 16 unique patterns and 8 clusters including a total of 55 isolates, showed that most MAH isolates displayed a close genetic relationship, indicating that the MAH genotypes are quite homogeneous in our geographical area. Clarithromycin showed strong antimicrobial activity against MAH isolates, as indicated by the high proportion (94.4%) of susceptible strains. No association between specific VNTR patterns and the clinical features or the MIC of clarithromycin was found.
