초록

본 연구에서는 ESBL을 생성하는 Escherichia coli의 Extended-spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase (ESBL) 유전자와 퀴놀론 내성결정부위(qnr)의 유전자형과 항생제 내성 양상을 규명하고자 하였다. 임상검체에서 분리 된 E. coli 274개 균주를 대상으로 double-disk synergy test 검사를 실시하여 42개의 ESBL 생성 균주를 분리하였다. 검체별로는 소변에서 28균주가 분리되었으며, 객담에서 6균주, 농에서 3균주, 상처에서 2균주, 혈액에서 2균주 그리고 조직에서 1균주가 분리되었다. 이 균주들을 대상으로 ESBL 유전자와 퀴놀론 내성 유전자를 PCR을 이용하여 검색하였다. 35개의 균주가 1개 혹은 2개의 ESBL 유전자를 보유하고 있었다. ESBL 유전자의 분포는 CTX-M-1이 가장 많았으며, CTX-M-9과 TEM 유전자 순이었다. SHV, CTX-M-2와 CTX-M-8는 검출되지 않았다. qnr 유전자는 10개 균주에서 검출되었으며 유전형별로는 qnrB4, qnrB1, qnrS 1 순이었다. 2가지 이상의 ESBL 유전자를 동시에 보유한 균주와 ESBL과 qnr 유전자를 동시에 보유한 균주가 검출되었다. ESBL 유전자 보유균주는 cefotaxmie (80.0%), levofloxacin (82.9%)과 ampicillin (100%)에 고도내성을 보였다. qnr 유전자 보유 균주의 cefotaxmie, levofloxacin과 ampicillin에 대한 내성율은 각각 70%, 70%, 100%였다. ESBL 유전자들간의 그리고 qnr 유전자와의 동시 보유가 항생제 내성에 미치는 상승효과는 없었다. qnr 유전자 보유와 퀴놀론에 대한 내성 사이의 상관관계도 없었다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of Extended-spectrum ${\beta}$-lactamase (ESBL) gene and quinolone resistance determinant (qnr) and the pattern of antibiotic resistance in the ESBL-producing Escherichia coli clinical isolates. The 42 ESBL-producing strains from total 274 isolates were detected using a double disk synergy test. They were isolated from various specimens, such as urine (28 strains), sputum (6 strains), pus (3 strains), wound (2 strains), blood (2 strains), and tissue (1 strain). Using the PCR with the specific primers ESBL, ESBL and qnr gene types were determined. Thirty-five strains possessed one or two ESBL genes. CTX-M-1 type was the most abundant followed by CTX-M-9 type and TEM, but SHV, CTX-M-2, and CTX-M-8 gene types were not detected. qnr gene types were detected from ten isolates in the order of qnrB4, qnrB1, and qnrS. Coexistence of ESBL and qnr genes was found. ESBL-producing isolates showed high resistance against some antibiotics, such as cefotaxmie (80.0%), levofloxacin (82.9%), and ampicillin (100%). Neither a synergy effect from the coexistence of ESBL and qnr genes on antibiotic resistance nor a correlation between the production of qnr gene and quinolone resistance were found.
