  • 연구배경 : 한국에서 결핵환자의 유병률은 지속적으로 감소하고 있으나 약제에 대한 내성은 치료 실패의 중요한 요인이다. 국가적인 조사가 시행되지 않는 현 시점에서 지속적인 내성률 조사가 더욱 필요하다. 이에 저자들은 최근 4년간 서울 소재 한 대학병원에서 조사된 결핵균의 내성률 및 관련된 위험인자를 조사하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1999년 3월부터 2003년 3월까지 한양대학교 의료원에서 치료 받은 결핵환자 중 결핵 배양 및 감수성 검사를 시행한 239명을 대상으로 하였다. 결 과 : 239명 중 한가지 이상의 약제에 내성을 보인 경우는 25명(21.8%)였고, 다제 내성 결핵은 30명(12.6%)이었다. INH, RFP, EMB, SM, PZA의 내성률은 각각 18.4%, 13.8%, 11.7%, 6.7%, 8.4%였다. 과거 결핵 치료력이 있는 환자는 90명이었으며 이들 중 약제 내성률은 36.7%, 다제 내성률은 25.6%였다. 약제 내성을 보인 환자의 63.5%는 과거 치료력이 있었으며 약제 감수성군의 과거 치료력은 30.5%였다. 결 론 : 서울에 소재한 한 대학병원에서 조사된 결핵 내성률은 21.8%, 다제 내성 결핵의 비율은 12.6%였다. 과거 결핵 치료력이 있는 경우에 약제 내성률이 높았다.

  • Drug-resistant tuberculosis in children has important implications for both the patients and tuberculosis control programs. In Korea, among all new patients, the isoniazid resistance rate was 9.9% and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis rate was 2.7% in 2004 (in patients aged 10-19 yr, the multidrug-resistant tuberculosis rate reached 2.1%). Tuberculosis in pediatric patients is difficult to diagnose because many children have nonspecific clinical signs and the detection rates of acid-fast bacilli smears and cultures are low. Therefore, every effort should be made to identify adult sources and obtain information on drug susceptibility because symptomatic adult patients have a higher chance of culture positivity and drug-susceptibility patterns are the same in most adult-child pair patients. Korean children are at significant risk of drug-resistant tuberculosis. As the isoniazid resistance rate is greater than 4% among the new cases in Korea, a four-drug regimen should be considered for initial treatment of children with active tuberculosis, unless drug-susceptibility test results are available. Treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis in children is challenging and there are only few available data. Tuberculosis control programs should be continuous with specific focus on pediatric populations because they can serve as reservoirs for future active cases. Further studies are needed regarding treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis in children.

  • 1965년부터 1995까지 결핵의 전국적인 조사에 의하면, 한국에서 결핵의 발생과 약제 내성율은 감소하였지만 다재약제내성율의 유행은 여전히 심각한 문제이다. 본 연구의 목적은 2001 년부터 2008까지 대전에 약제 내성율과 성향을 조사하였다. 총 581건의 약제감수성 검사가 수행 되었으며 이중 하나이상의 항결핵제의 약물에 내성이 있는 경우가 104건(17.9%)이였고 적어도 INH에 내성이 있는 경우가 68건 (11.7 %), RFP내성이 41건(7.1 %)이였다. 단일 약제 내성율은 37건 (6.4 %) 분리되었으며 이들 중 INH에서 18건 (3.1 %) RFP에서 5건(0.9 %)이 분리 되었다. 적어도 isoniazid와 refampin에 내성인 다제내성결핵은 35건(6.0 %)에서 발견되었다. 그리고 MDR - TB와 관련된 나이요인에 40-60 세 포함되었다. 폐결핵의 약제내성율, 특히 MDR - TB의 약제내성율은 공공의료분야보다 민간 병원의 초치료 환자에서 높게 나왔다. 초기 약제내성은 일반적이며 약제감수성 검사는 이전 결핵 치료를 받지 않은 폐결핵 환자에 대해 유용성이 있다. 내성의 확산과 증가를 줄이기 위해 MDR - TB의 조기 진단과 함께 향상된 제어프로그램이 필요하다. 다제내성율은 여전히 한국에서 문제이다. 독립적으로 혹은 공공의료분야와 공동으로 다제내성율을 감소하기 위한 노력이 필요하다.

  • 연구배경 : 치료 경력이 있는 환자의 약제 내성은 진료의사의 처방의 적절성 및 환자의 복용 순응도를 복합적으로 나타내어 주는 지표가 될 수 있으므로, 우리나라에서 재치료 대상 결핵 환자에서 장기간의 약제내성률 추이를 파악하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 연도별 보건소 등록환자의 약제감수성 검사 결과 및 결핵연구원의 전산 입력된 자료를 활용하여 1981년부터 2004년 사이에 주요 약제에 대한 내성률의 변화를 분석하였다. 결 과 : Isoniazid 내성은 90%에서 20%로 감소하였다. Ethambutol 내성률도 45%에서 6%로 감소하였다. Rifampin 내성률은 13%에서 28%까지 증가하다가 13%까지 감소하였다. 다제내성률은 rifampin 내성률보다 약 2-3% 낮았다. Pyrazinamide 내성률은 5% 미만에서 10% 정도까지 증가하였다가 다시 5%까지 감소하였다. 2차약제에 대한 내성률은 1-2% 정도였다. 내성 빈도는 남녀 간에 차이가 없었으며, 대도시 지역이 중소도시/농촌지역보다 낮은 약제 내성률을 보였다. 결 론 : 우리나라보건소에 등록되는 재치료 대상 결핵 환자의 주요 항결핵 약제에 대한 내성률은 2004년을 기준으로 isoniazid 20%, rifampin 13%, 다제내성 11%, ethambutol 6%, pyrazinamide 5% 기타 2차 항결핵제에 1-3%로 나타났으며 1981년 이후 모든 항결핵 약제에서 그 내성률이 유의하게 감소하고 있었다.

  • These studies were made to assess the present stage of resistance of Shigella species to antibiotics and to find characteristics of R-plasmid of these bacteria. From 1986 to 1988, 125 strains of Shigella species were isolated from patients specimens collected in Chung Cheong-do Hospital, Kyunghee Medical Center, city an provincial health & environmental institutes. These specimens were tested for resistance to 12 kinds of antimicrobial agents by agar dilution method. Using Muller-Hinton agar for the assay of drug resistance and Trypticane Soy Broth as propagating medium for conjugation. All the strains (100%) were resistant to one or more antibiotics. Drug resistance patterns of isolated strains were found as the highest resistance to ampicillin (98%) in 1986, to tetracycline (98%) in 1987, to tetracycline (100%) in 1988, all strains were sensitive to gentamicin, amikacin, tobramycin. Chronologically, resistance decreased gradually as it was shown in relation to kanamycin, rifampicin in 1986, 1987 and 1988, (4%, 2%) (4%, 2%) (0%, 0%) respectively. But, resistance was increased year by year as it was shown in relation to tetracycline, nalidixic acid, streptomycin in 1986, 1987, 1988 (89%, 19%, 45%) (98%, 46%, 71%) and (100%, 58%, 88%). The resistance in correlation to more than 5 drugs, which was 13 strains among 47 strains in 1986, 38 strains among 87 strains in 1987, 23 strains among 26 strains in 1988, was increased gradually. In the transfer test of drug resistance by conjugation methods, the rate which was 3 strains (50%) in 1986, 8 strains (62%) in 1987, 3 strains (100%) in 1988, was increased gradually. When the donor strains were conjugated with the recipient strains, the conjugation rate was high in the multiple resistant strains. The relationships of transferring patterns of drug resistance and molecular weight of R-plasmid were variable. However, only a plasmid which has more than 35 Mgd was transferred.

  • Trastuzumab is the first molecular targeting drug to increase the overall survival rate in advanced gastric cancer. However, it has also been found that a high intrinsic or primary trastuzumab resistance exists in some proportion of gastric cancer patients. In order to explore the mechanism of resistance to trastuzumab, firstly we investigated the expression of MUC1 (membrane-type mucin 1) in gastric cancer cells and its relationship with drug-resistance. Then using gene-silencing, we transfected a siRNA of MUC1 into drug-resistant cells. The results showed the MKN45 gastric cell line to be resistant to trastuzumab, mRNA and protein expression of MUC1 being significantly upregulated. After transfection of MUC1 siRNA, protein expression of MUC1 in MKN45cells was significantly reduced. Compared with the junk transfection and blank control groups, the sensitivity to trastuzumab under MUC1 siRNA conditions was significantly increased. These results imply that HER2-positive gastric cancer cell MKN45 is resistant to trastuzumab and this resistance can be cancelled by silencing expression of the MUC1 gene.

  • Since the advent of chemotherapy, certain types of cancer have been particularly resistant to chemotherapeutic treatment. One of the most well-studied types of resistance is resistance to multiple struc-turally dissimialr hydrophobic chemotherapeutic agents, or multidrug resistance (MDR). We found that MDR cells (KBV20C, KB7D) being highly resistant to colchicine, etoposide, and vincristine were found to have very low level of putrescine and low level of spermidine than the drug sensitive parental cells (KB) but they had almost same level of spermine as the drug sensitive cells. Although both MDR and drug sensitive cells had almost same rate of polyamine uptake, MDR cells were much more sensitive to an inhibitor of polyamine synthesis, methylglyoxal-bis guanylhydrazone (MGBG), suggesting that MDR cells might be defective in polyamine synthesis. These results also suggest that HGBG can be used for treatment of MDR in vivo.

  • Background: The morbidity and mortality rate of liver cancer continues to rise in China and advanced cases respond poorly to chemotherapy. Ribosomal protein L24 has been reported to be a potential therapeutic target whose depletion or acetylation inhibits polysome assembly and cell growth of cancer. Materials and Methods: Total RNA of cultured amycin-resistant and susceptible HepG2 cells was isolated, and real time quantitative RT-PCR were used to indicate differences between amycin-resistant and susceptible strains of HepG2 cells. Viability assays were used to determine amycin resistance in RPL24 transfected and control vector and null-transfected HepG2 cell lines. Results: The ribosomal protein L24 transcription level was 7.7 times higher in the drug-resistant HepG2 cells as compared to susceptible cells on quantitative RT-PCR analysis. This was associated with enhanced drug resistance as determined by methyl tritiated thymidine (3H-TdR) incorporation. Conclusions: The ribosomal protein L24 gene may have effects on drug resistance mechanisms in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells.

  • This study was to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of antimicrobial-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) from 4,264 retail meat samples including beef, pork, and chicken in Korea between 2013 and 2018. A broth microdilution antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed for S. aureus. Molecular typing by multilocus sequence typing (MLST), spa typing, and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), was performed on mecA-positive S. aureus strain. S. aureus was isolated at a rate of 18.2% (777/4,264), of which MRSA comprised 0.7% (29 strains). MLST analysis showed that 11 out of the 29 MRSA isolates were predominantly sequence type (ST) 398 (37.9%). In addition, ST72, ST692, ST188, ST9, and ST630 were identified in the MRSA isolates. The spa typing results were classified into 11 types and showed a high correlation with MLST. The antimicrobial resistance assays revealed that MRSA showed 100% resistance to cefoxitin and penicillin. In addition, resistance to tetracycline (62.1%), clindamycin (55.2%), and erythromycin (55.2%) was relatively high; 27 of the 29 MRSA isolates exhibited multidrug resistance. PFGE analysis of the 18 strains excluding the 11 ST398 strains exhibited a maximum of 100% homology and a minimum of 64.0% homology. Among these, three pairs of isolates showed 100% homology in PFGE; these results were consistent with the MLST and spa typing results. Identification of MRSA at the final consumption stage has potential risks, suggesting that continuous monitoring of retail meat products is required.
