Özet

In this study, it was aimed to determine the occurence of ampicillin and vancomycin resistant enterococci (ARE and VRE) species in dogs and cats, antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence genes (asa1, esp, gelE, hyl, cylA) of the isolates. Minimal inhibitor concentration (MIC) values of ampicillin and vancomycin were determined by macro dilution method and E-test, respectively. For this purpose, 531 rectal swabs collected from dogs (n=276) and cats (n=255) from three different cities (İstanbul, Ankara and Mersin) were examined. ARE was detected in 60 (21.7%) of dogs and in 47 (18.4%) of cats. VRE was detected in one dog and two cats. All ARE and VRE isolates were identified as Enterococcus faecium by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and showed multi-drug resistance (MDR) phenotype. A small number of AREfm isolates (4.7%) carried virulence gene. To the authors’ knowledge, the study is first reporting vanA gene harboring VREfm in dogs in Turkey. The results indicated that both dogs and cats were frequent carriers of AREfm. Due to close contact with humans, dogs and cats may play an important role in the spread of these nosocomial pathogens in the community. Therefore, further molecular studies are needed to elucidate the possible role of animal originated AREfm and VREfm strains in human nosocomial infections.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, köpek ve kedilerde ampisilin ve vankomisine dirençli enterokokların (ARE ve VRE) izolasyonu, izolatların antimikrobiyal duyarlılıklarının ve virülans genlerinin (asa1, esp, gelE, hyl, cylA) belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Ampisilin ve vankomisin dirençli izolatların minimal inhibitör konsantrasyonları (MİK) sırasıyla makrodilüsyon metodu ve E-test ile belirlendi. Bu amaçla üç farklı ildeki (İstanbul, Ankara ve Mersin) köpeklerden (n=276) ve kedilerden (n=255) toplanan 531 rektal svab örneği çalışmaya dahil edildi. Köpeklerin 60’ında (%21.7) ve kedilerin 47’sinde (%18.4) ARE tespit edildi. VRE bir köpek ve iki kedide saptandı. Tüm ARE ve VRE izolatları, polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu (PZR) ile Enterococcus faecium olarak identifiye edildi ve bu izolatlar çoklu ilaç direnç (MDR) fenotipi gösterdi. Az sayıdaki izolatta (%4.7) virülans geni saptandı. Yazarların bilgisine göre, bu çalışma ile ilk olarak Türkiye’de köpeklerden vanA geni taşıyan VREfm izolasyonu bildirilmektedir. Sonuçlar, hem köpeklerin hem de kedilerin AREfm ile yüksek oranda kolonize olduklarını göstermektedir. Köpekler ve kediler yakın fiziksel temaslarından dolayı, insanlara bu nozokomiyal patojenlerin yayılmasında önemli bir rol oynayabilir. Bu nedenle, hayvanlardan izole edilen AREfm ve VREfm suşlarının insan nozokomiyal enfeksiyonlarındaki olası rolünü aydınlatmak için ileri moleküler çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
