摘要: 【背景】 近年来,对碳青霉烯类抗生素耐药的肠杆科细菌的出现对公众的健康构成了严重的威胁。【目的】 为了解家禽养殖中肠道菌对碳青霉烯类抗生素耐药情况,对陕西西安和浙江海宁两地的鸡和鸭养殖场粪便进行耐药菌筛选并分析。【方法】 在含美罗培南的LB琼脂平板上筛选可疑菌落并利用基质辅助激光解吸电离飞行时间质谱(matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry, MALDI-TOF MS)鉴定。通过微量肉汤稀释法进行最小抑菌浓度(minimum inhibitory concentration,MIC)测定。通过Illumina HiSeq平台进行全基因组测序。使用ResFinder数据库预测获得性耐药基因。利用S1酶切后脉冲场电泳(pulsed-field gel electrophoresis,PFGE)和Southern blot杂交进行质粒和碳青霉烯类耐药基因的确认。【结果】 分离出两株碳青霉烯类耐药的大肠杆菌HN1-26和XN3-1,均对头孢他啶、头孢噻呋、氨苄西林、奥格门丁、复方新诺明、磺胺异恶唑、恩诺沙星、氧氟沙星、美罗培南、四环素耐药。此外,XN3-1对氟苯尼考和大观霉素耐药。菌株HN1-26和XN3-1的多位点序列分型(multilocus sequence typing,MLST)分别为ST354和ST10。两株菌对美罗培南的MIC值均为64 μg/mL,但是在含美罗培南的LB平板上,菌株HN1-26比菌株XN3-1生长得更快。两株菌都存在携带blaNDM-5基因的IncX3型质粒。两个质粒的序列完全一致,大小为46 161 bp,包含接合转移元件,能够以大肠杆菌作为受体细胞进行转移。【结论】 IncX3型质粒是转移blaNDM-5基因的重要载体,在我国畜禽养殖中具有扩散风险。

Abstract: [Background] Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae is now becoming a globally serious threat to public health. [Objective] To study the carbapenem resistance of intestinal bacteria isolated from poultry farms, feces of chicken and duck were screened at Xi'an of Shaanxi and Haining of Zhejiang Provinces. [Methods] The potential bacterial colonies on LB agar plate containing meropenem were picked and further characterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined by the microbroth dilution method. Whole genome sequencing was performed by the Illumina HiSeq platform. Acquired resistance genes were predicted by the online ResFinder database analysis. In addition, plasmids and carbapenem resistance genes were confirmed by S1-pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (S1-PFGE) and Southern blot hybridization. [Results] Two carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli strains HN1-26 and XN3-1 were isolated. Both of these strains were resistant to ceftazidime, ceftiofur, ampicillin, amoxicillin/clavulanate, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, sulfisoxazole, enrofloxacin, ofloxacin, meropenem and tetracycline. Besides, XN3-1 was also shown to be resistant to florfenicol and spectinomycin. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) results revealed that HN1-26 and XN3-1 were ST354 and ST10, respectively. The MIC values of these two strains to meropenem were 64 μg/mL, while HN1-26 grew faster than XN3-1 on LB plate with meropenem. Furthermore, these two strains contained the identical IncX3 type plasmid carrying antibiotic resistance gene blaNDM-5, with a size of 46 161 bp. This IncX3 type plasmid contained complete conjugative elements and were able to transfer to E. coli recipient cells. [Conclusion] Our results suggested that the IncX3 plasmid is an important vehicle for transferring blaNDM-5 gene, which has the risk of spreading in livestock and poultry in China.

碳青霉烯类抗生素是一种抗菌谱广、抗菌活性较强的β-内酰胺类抗生素,因其具有对β-内酰胺酶稳定以及毒性低等特点,已经成为治疗严重细菌感染的最主要抗菌药物之一。然而随着碳青霉烯类药物使用的增加,含碳青霉烯耐药基因的菌株已经陆续被发现,特别是碳青霉烯耐药肠杆菌科菌株的发现,对公共健康造成巨大威胁。从2009年Yong等首次在克雷伯氏菌中发现了新德里金属-β-内酰胺酶-1 (new delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1,NDM-1)以来[1],世界各地也相继发现了携带blaNDM的细菌[2-5]。到目前为止,已经发现了24个blaNDM变型体[6]blaNDM-5最早是在2011年由Hornsey等首次在大肠杆菌中发现[7]并引起了广泛关注,紧接着很多国家也陆续报道了携带blaNDM-5的肠杆菌科菌株,成为流行广泛的blaNDM变型体之一[8-11]blaNDM-5可通过不同类型质粒介导,例如IncF、IncN和IncX3等[12]。其中,IncX3型质粒在肠杆菌科中宿主范围较窄[13]。目前许多国家在人、动物和环境之中发现了携带blaNDM-5的IncX3型质粒的肠杆菌科菌株,包括澳大利亚[14]、印度[15]、韩国[16]、日本[17]、尼日利亚[18]、阿拉伯联合酋长国[19]等。在中国,已有很多省市报道了人来源的携带blaNDM-5的IncX3型质粒,包括浙江[6, 13, 20]、江苏[21]、山东[22]、上海[23]、青海[24]、四川[25]等,而从动物中分离的报道仅占极少数。

本研究从浙江和陕西家禽的粪便中分离出碳青霉烯类耐药的两株序列型分别为ST354和ST10的大肠杆菌HN1-26和XN3-1,这两株菌均携带blaNDM-5基因。通过全基因组测序、药敏检测等手段解析了耐药机制,并对两株菌的耐药性和耐药质粒进行了比较分析。这些研究结果将有助于增加研究者对携带blaNDM-5基因的质粒在人和动物中传播规律的认知。

1.2 菌株分离、鉴定

2018年10-12月,分别从陕西西安一家庭养鸡场和浙江海宁两个鸭养殖场各采集粪便样品5、10和10份,使用含有美罗培南浓度为4 μg/mL的LB平板进行筛选,挑选疑似克隆后纯化3次,通过基质辅助激光解吸电离飞行时间质谱(matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry,MALDI-TOF MS)快速鉴定。获得的菌株通过16S rRNA基因扩增[26]比对,最后使用20%甘油保藏到-80 ℃冰箱。将分离株划线于LB平板,37 ℃培养12-24 h复苏,挑单克隆用于后续研究。

1.5 药敏实验

使用Biofosun革兰氏阴性需氧菌药敏板检测大肠杆菌分离株对氨苄西林(ampicillin,AMP)、头孢噻呋(ceftiofur,CEF)、头孢他啶(ceftazidime,CAZ)、奥格门丁(amoxicillin/clavulanate,A/C)、美罗培南(meropenem,MEM)、复方新诺明(trimethoprim/ sulfamethoxazole,SXT)、磺胺异恶唑(sulfisoxazole,SF)、恩诺沙星(enrofloxacin,ENR)、氧氟沙星(ofloxacin,OFL)、四环素(tetracycline,TET)、庆大霉素(gentamicin,GEM)、大观霉素(spectinomycin,SPT)、氟苯尼考(florfenicol,FFC)和粘菌素(colistin,CL) 14种抗生素的最低抑菌浓度(minimal inhibitory concentration,MIC)。以美国临床实验室标准化委员会(clinical and laboratory standards institute of America,CLSI)的标准判断结果[31]

将大肠杆菌分离株使用LB培养基生长到对数期,使用生理盐水配制到麦氏浊度为0.6,按10倍比梯度稀释,得到10-1、10-2、10-3、10-4、10-5、10-6六个梯度的菌悬液,随后以点种的方式接种到美罗培南浓度分别为0、4、8、16、32、64和128 μg/mL的LB方形平板上,测试大肠杆菌分离株在含有不同浓度美罗培南的LB培养基上的生长状态。以大肠杆菌ATCC 25922为对照菌株。

1.6 生长曲线的测定

将菌株HN1-26和XN3-1菌株37 ℃培养12 h后,按照1%接种量接种到30 mL LB培养基中,通过微生物自动生长曲线测定仪进行检测。美罗培南浓度分别设置为0、8、16、32和64 μg/mL,实验重复3次。通过测定OD600监测菌体生长浓度,使用GraphPad Prism 8软件绘制生长曲线。

1.7 S1-PAGE、Southern blot与接合转移实验

以本次实验分离株为供体菌,利福霉素抗性大肠杆菌EC600菌株作为受体菌。利用Xba Ⅰ酶切标准菌株Salmonella enteric serovar Braenderup H9812作为分子标准,S1核酸酶处理胶块,使用脉冲场电泳系统分离质粒[32]。将地高辛标记的blaNDM-5特异性探针进行Southern blot杂交。接合转移实验具体操作方法参考文献[6]。

2 结果与分析 2.1 菌株鉴定

从来自陕西西安的一个鸡养殖场和浙江海宁的两个鸭养殖场中采集的25份粪便样品中分别选择性筛选出8株美罗培南耐药菌株。利用MALDI-TOF MS和16S rRNA基因序列比对后,确定从西安的养殖场筛选出1株大肠杆菌(XN3-1)和1株嗜麦芽寡养单胞菌,从海宁筛选出1株大肠杆菌(HN1-26),2株不动杆菌属和3株紫色杆菌属的菌株。

2.2 药敏实验

对两株美罗培南耐药的大肠杆菌进行了药物敏感实验,获得了对14种抗生素的MIC值并进行了对比。如表 1所示,两株菌均表现出多重耐药,其中菌株HN1-26对庆大霉素、氟苯尼考、粘菌素和大观霉素4种抗生素敏感,对头孢他啶、头孢噻呋、氨苄西林、奥格门丁、复方新诺明、磺胺异恶唑、恩诺沙星、氧氟沙星、美罗培南、四环素10种抗生素表现出耐药性,而菌株XN3-1的耐药类型比菌株HN1-26多两种,其对氟苯尼考和大观霉素也表现出耐药性,并且MIC值相差较大,菌株XN3-1对氟苯尼考和大观霉素的MIC分别是 > 256 μg/mL和 > 512 μg/mL,而菌株HN1-26为4 μg/mL和32 μg/mL。

根据MIC测定,菌株HN1-26和XN3-1对美罗培育的MIC值均为64 μg/mL。进一步测试了菌株HN1-26和XN3-1在美罗培南浓度分别为0、4、8、16、32、64、128 μg/mL的LB平板上的生长活力。从图 1中可以看到,菌株HN1-26耐受性略高于XN3-1,在培养液的稀释度为10-6时,菌株HN1-26在美罗培南浓度为128 μg/mL时仍然可以生长,而菌株XN3-1不生长。同样,从生长曲线(图 2)可得知,菌株HN1-26的生长迟缓期要比菌株XN3-1的短,特别是在美罗培南浓度64 μg/mL时,HN1-26的迟缓期为3 h,而XN3-1的迟缓期为5 h,这与平板检测的稀释点滴图的测试结果类似。实验说明虽然两株菌的对美罗培南的MIC值相同,但在相同抗生素浓度下菌株HN1-26比XN3-1的生长活力高。

2.3 质粒与耐药基因

通过S1-PFGE和Southern blot发现,菌株HN1-26和XN3-1存在相同大小的携带blaNDM-5的质粒(图 3),将其命名为pHNNDM-yll和pXNTBNDM。基于全基因组测序的组装结果,获得的这两个质粒的全序列大小为46 161 bp,且序列完全一致。利用ResFinder数据库对测序结果进行了分析,在菌株HN1-26的基因组中预测到10个获得性耐药基因:β-内酰胺类blaNDM-5blaTEM-1B;氨基糖苷类aph(3′′)-Ibaph(3′)-Iaaph(6)-Id;喹诺酮类oqxB;甲氧嘧啶类dfrA17;苯丙醇类catA1;磺胺类sul2;四环素类tet(B);在菌株XN3-1的基因组中预测到16个获得性耐药基因:β-内酰胺类blaNDM-5blaTEM-1B;氨基糖苷类aadA2aph(6)-IdaadA22aph(3′)-Ia;喹诺酮类qnrS1;甲氧嘧啶类dfrA12、dfrA14;大环内酯类mph(A)、mdf(A)、lnu(F);苯丙醇类catA1floR;磺胺类sul3;四环素类tet(A) (表 2)。虽然两种菌株对一些抗生素耐药表型相同,但是耐药基因却不同,例如菌株HN1-26对四环素的耐药基因是tet(B),而XN3-1是tet(A)。此外,在HN1-26中预测到了parE (p.I355T)突变、gyrA (p.S83L、p.D87N)双突变和parC (p.S80I、p.E84G)双突变,在XN3-1中只预测到了gyrA (p.S83L)突变,并且这些突变均介导了两株菌对喹诺酮类药物萘啶酸和环丙沙星的抗性。

两株菌携带blaNDM-5的质粒通过预测发现是属于IncX3型的质粒,该质粒类型已经广泛分离于世界各地的临床上。多位点序列分型(multilocus sequence typing,MLST)分析[33]将大肠杆菌HN1-26和XN3-1归为ST354和ST10,进一步说明了携带blaNDM-5的大肠杆菌具有种内差异性。与我们先前报道[6]的在浙江蛋鸡中分离的pTB203质粒做比对,差异仅有3个SNP。blaNDM-5基因位于典型的ISAba125-IS5-blaNDM-5-ble-trpF- IS26结构中,与前人报道[23]的一致(图 4A)。质粒具备完整的接合转移元件,包括松弛酶基因、Ⅳ型偶联蛋白编码基因(T4CP)和Ⅳ型细菌分泌系统基因簇(图 4B)。随后对两个质粒接合转移效率进行了测定,结果分别为(2.58±0.14)×10-2和(1.68±0.27)×10-3,证实了菌株HN1-26和XN3-1中携带的blaNDM-5的质粒可以进行种内转移。

2.4 携带blaNDM-5的质粒在中国的分布统计

blaNDM-5是分布最普遍的blaNDM基因的变型体之一。目前世界各地已经从不同来源中发现了携带blaNDM-5的质粒,包括临床病人[34]、动物[35]和食品[36]。在中国,该类型质粒同样在各个省流行,人类是blaNDM-5的主要宿主。截至目前,从家禽和家畜中共报道23个含blaNDM-5的IncX3型质粒(表 3),包括2016年从四川的猪中检测到的1个质粒[25],2017年从浙江的蛋鸡中检测到1个质粒[6],2018和2019年分别从江苏的奶牛和鹅中检测到10个质粒[37]和9个质粒[21],2019年从浙江和陕西西安的鸭和鸡粪便中检测到的2个质粒(本研究)。说明该质粒流行性较强,人和动物可以相互传播,另外未分离到的省可能与医疗科研水平、取样少有很大关系。

3 讨论与结论

重要耐药细菌的流行会影响公共卫生安全,危害人类健康,一直以来都是被人们高度重视的问题。前人已报道了从临床、食品、动物和环境中分离到相同类型的对人类具有威胁的病原菌,如碳青霉烯类或粘菌素耐药的肠杆菌科细菌[38-41]。本次研究从陕西西安和浙江海宁的家禽养殖场中发现了含有blaNDM-5基因的大肠杆菌,序列型分别为ST10和ST354,blaNDM-5基因均由IncX3型质粒携带。根据药物敏感实验的结果显示,菌株HN1-26和XN3-1分别对10种和12种不同的抗生素具有耐药性,并且基本可以从获得性耐药基因和基因组突变得到解释。此次研究中,还证实了菌株HN1-26和XN3-1中携带blaNDM-5的IncX3型质粒具有接合转移的能力,具有传播风险。

值得注意的是,菌株HN1-26和XN3-1的来源和ST型虽然均不相同,但是其所含质粒pHNNDM-yll和pXNTBNDM的序列完全一致,并与已经报道的大肠杆菌分离株EC119的pTB203质粒序列也仅有3个碱基位点的差异,这些结果表明IncX3型质粒是blaNDM-5基因传播的高效载体,且序列高度保守。本文分离的两株大肠杆菌携带blaNDM-5基因的质粒完全一致,对美罗培南的MIC值均为64 μg/mL,但是在进一步在对两株菌进行生长曲线的测定时发现,两株菌对美罗培南表现出细微的抗药性差异,菌株HN1-26相对XN3-1较强。造成这种情况的原因一方面是菌株的遗传背景差异可能造成对blaNDM-5基因的表达强度不同,或者不同菌株自身对美罗培南的抗性程度有一定差异;另一方面也有可能是菌株携带其他耐药基因,对美罗培南的抗性有交叉影响。以上3株菌都是从动物粪便中分离,结合在人群中流行的文献报道[13],表明了携带blaNDM-5基因的IncX3型质粒在中国畜禽养殖中传播的严重性。碳青霉烯类抗生素在动物中禁用,因此相关抗性基因很可能是从人传给动物。遏制耐药性,必须将人、动物和环境作为一个整体考虑,始终坚持One Health理念[42-43],加强养殖动物的碳青霉烯类耐药菌的监测。
