Abstract
The global incidence of non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections is on the rise. This study systematically searched several databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and two Chinese libraries (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang) to identify relevant published between 2013 and 2023 related to the isolation of NTM in clinical specimens from various countries and provinces of China. Furthermore, a comprehensive literature review was conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar to identify randomized clinical trials, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and observational studies that evaluated the diagnostic accuracy and impact of laboratory detection methods on clinical outcomes. This review presented the most recent epidemiological data and species distributions of NTM isolates in several countries and provinces of China. Moreover, it provided insights into laboratory bacteriological detection, including the identified strains, advantages and disadvantages, recent advancements, and the commercial Mycobacterium identification kits available for clinical use. This review aimed to aid healthcare workers in understanding this aspect, enhance the standards of clinical diagnosis and treatment, and enlighten them on the existing gaps and future research priorities.

Unique genomic sequences in a novel Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis lineage enable fine scale transmission route tracing during pig movement. One Health 2023; 16:100559. [PMID: 37363238 PMCID: PMC10288077 DOI: 10.1016/j.onehlt.2023.100559] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 04/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH) is one of the most prevalent mycobacteria causing non-tuberculous mycobacterial disease in humans and animals. Of note, MAH is a major cause of mycobacterial granulomatous mesenteric lymphadenitis outbreaks in pig populations. To determine the precise source of infection of MAH in a pig farm and to clarify the epidemiological relationship among pig, human and environmental MAH lineages, we collected 50 MAH isolates from pigs reared in Japan and determined draft genome sequences of 30 isolates. A variable number of tandem repeat analysis revealed that most pig MAH isolates in Japan were closely related to North American, European and Russian human isolates but not to those from East Asian human and their residential environments. Historical recombination analysis revealed that most pig isolates could be classified into SC2/4 and SC3, which contain MAH isolated from pig, European human and environmental isolates. Half of the isolates in SC2/4 had many recombination events with MAH lineages isolated from humans in East Asia. To our surprise, four isolates belonged to a new lineage (SC5) in the global MAH population. Members of SC5 had few footprints of inter-lineage recombination in the genome, and carried 80 unique genes, most of which were located on lineage specific-genomic islands. Using unique genetic features, we were able to trace the putative transmission route via their host pigs. Together, we clarify the possibility of species-specificity of MAH in addition to local adaptation. Our results highlight two transmission routes of MAH, one exposure on pig farms from the environment and the other via pig movement. Moreover, our study also warns that the evolution of MAH in pigs is influenced by MAH from patients and their residential environments, even if the MAH are genetically distinct.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
A 14-month-old Japanese black beef steer presented with severe chronic diarrhea and emaciation and was euthanized. Postmortem examination showed thickened and corrugated intestinal mucosa and enlarged granulomatous mesenteric lymph nodes with caseating necrosis. Numerous epithelioid cells and multinucleated giant cells infiltrated in the lamina propria and the submucosal tissue of the intestines. These cells were also observed in the systemic organs. Many acid-fast bacilli were detected in the cytoplasm of these cells and were identified as 'Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis' (Mah) on the basis of the results of molecular examinations and immunohistochemistry. These findings indicate that Mah can cause systemic mycobacteriosis, and this unique infection needs to be distinguished from Johne's disease and tuberculosis in cattle.
