Characteristics of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus carrying the toxic shock syndrome toxin gene: high prevalence of clonal complex 22 strains and the emergence of new spa types t223 and t605 in Iran

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains that carry the tst gene are disseminated worldwide with varying regional incidences and different genetic backgrounds. The data on molecular characteristics of these strains is insufficient in Iran. The present study aimed to assess the char...

description Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains that carry the tst gene are disseminated worldwide with varying regional incidences and different genetic backgrounds. The data on molecular characteristics of these strains is insufficient in Iran. The present study aimed to assess the characteristics and distribution of spa types of tst-positive MRSA strains. We investigated 89 MRSA isolates carrying the tst gene with spa typing, resistance gene detection and in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility. Of the 89 tested isolates, 61 (68.5%) were confirmed as multidrug resistant (MDR). The isolates were distributed across seven clonal complexes (CCs) including CC22 (42.7%), CC8 (28.1%), CC5 (11.2%), CC59 (5.6%), CC30 (4.5%), CC80 (4.5%) and CC15 (3.4%). spa typing identified 11 distinct types, with t223 (16.9%) and t790 (15.7%) being the most prevalent. All high-level mupirocin-resistant strains belonged to t002 (n = 8) and low-level mupirocin-resistant strains belonged to t790 (n = 6) spa types. Fusidic-acid-resistant isolates belonged to t437 (n = 3). iMLS(B) phenotype was observed in t005 (6.7%), t002 (5.6%), t790 (3.4%), and t030, t044 and t084 (each 2.2%). It was found that in the tst-carrying MRSA strains, there were genetic diversities with a majority of the t223 spa type. Indeed, there is a necessity for more constructive surveillance/infection control strategies to address the prevalence and prevention of the emerging spa types.
