First report of Mycobacterium virginiense-induced synovitis and tenosynovitis of flexor digitorum superficialis and profundus muscles in Japan. J Infect Chemother 2023; 29:410-413. [PMID: 36574930 DOI: 10.1016/j.jiac.2022.12.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2022] [Revised: 12/04/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Mycobacterium virginiense, a species of the Mycobacterium terrae complex, was first identified in 2016. Although M. virginiense has only been reported to cause tenosynovitis, there have been only a few reports. Moreover, there is no established standard treatment, and no cases of M. virginiense infection have been reported in Japan. A 70-year-old Japanese man with a history of hand injury and wound contamination was diagnosed with synovitis and tenosynovitis of the left flexor digitorum superficialis and profundus muscles. M. virginiense was detected in perisynovial reservoirs and surgically removed synovium and was identified by hsp65 and rpoB sequencing. Postoperative chemotherapy with clarithromycin, rifabutin, and ethambutol was administered. Infection with M. virginiense can occur in patients with synovitis and tenosynovitis who have experienced injury or wound contamination, requiring surgery and long-term treatment with multiple antibiotics.

ISOLATION AND ANTIMICROBIAL SUSCEPTIBILITIES OF NONTUBERCULOUS MYCOBACTERIA FROM WILDLIFE IN JAPAN. J Wildl Dis 2021; 56:851-862. [PMID: 32402237 DOI: 10.7589/2019-10-261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2019] [Accepted: 02/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are opportunistic pathogens of humans and animals and are transmitted among the environment, wildlife, livestock, and humans. The aim of this study was to investigate the rate of isolation and antimicrobial susceptibility of NTM in wildlife. In total, 178 samples of feces (n=131) and tissues (n=47) were collected from 11 wildlife species in Gifu Prefecture and Mie Prefecture, Japan, between June 2016 and October 2018. We isolated NTM from 15.3% (20/ 131) of fecal samples using Ogawa medium, and isolates were identified by sequencing the rpoB and hsp65 genes. The rpoB sequences were compared with those from other strains of human and environmental origin. The NTM isolates were obtained from sika deer (Cervus nippon), wild boar (Sus scrofa), Japanese monkey (Macaca fuscata), raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides), masked palm civet (Paguma larvata), and Japanese weasel (Mustela itatsi) and were classified as rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM) and slowly growing mycobacteria (SGM). The 12 RGM identified were Mycolicibacterium peregrinum (n=5), Mycolicibacterium fortuitum (n=3), Mycolicibacterium septicum (n=3), and Mycolicibacterium thermoresistibile (n=1), and the eight SGM were Mycobacterium paraense (n=4), Mycolicibacter arupensis (n=2), Mycolicibacter virginiensis (n=1), and Mycobacterium nebraskense (n=1). The NTM from wildlife showed ≥99% similarity with strains from different sources including humans. The RGM were susceptible to the antimicrobial agents tested except for M. fortuitum, which was resistant to azithromycin and clarithromycin. The SGM showed multiple drug resistance qualities but were susceptible to amikacin, clarithromycin, and rifabutin. These results indicate that wildlife may be reservoir hosts of NTM in Japan. The presence of antimicrobial-resistant NTM in wildlife suggests that the trends of NTM antimicrobial susceptibility in wildlife should be monitored.

Draft genome sequences of Mycolicibacterium peregrinum isolated from a pig with lymphadenitis and from soil on the same Japanese pig farm. BMC Res Notes 2019; 12:341. [PMID: 31208450 PMCID: PMC6580614 DOI: 10.1186/s13104-019-4380-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2019] [Accepted: 06/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives Mycolicibacterium peregrinum, a rapidly growing mycobacterial species, can opportunistically infect humans and other animals. Although M. peregrinum infections in animals have been reported, the infection sources are unknown, as is information on its virulence and drug resistant genes, which limits our current understanding of this bacterium. To address this knowledge gap, we obtained draft genome sequences for two M. peregrinum isolates; one from a case of pig lymphadenitis and one from the pig farm’s soil. Data description We report here the draft genome sequences of M. peregrinum isolates 131_1 and 138 (6,451,733-bp and 6,479,047-bp). They were isolated from a pig with mesenteric lymph node lymphadenitis and from soil on the Japanese farm where the pig was reared. A sequence alignment identity score of 100% was obtained by in silico DNA–DNA hybridization of the two isolates, while 98.28% (isolate 131_1) and 98.27% (isolate 138) scores were recorded for hybridization with a human isolate. Both isolates carry arr-1, AAC(2′)-Ib, RbpA, mtrA and tap drug-resistance genes. Isolates 131_1 and 138 carry 234 and 236 putative virulence genes, respectively. Therefore, environment M. peregrinum is potentially drug resistant and can cause swine lymphadenitis. Our data provides valuable new information for future studies on nontuberculous mycobacteria.
