At present, with the improvement of epidemic indicators for tuberculosis, the number of patients with drug-resis- tant forms of tuberculosis is increasing, which compli- cates and increases the duration of treatment of suchpatients. The aim of the work is to study drug resistance of mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT) obtained from sur- gical material. Methods. 74 patients with radical and di- agnostic operations on the chest organs were included into the study. All patients were examined by standard me thods: microscopy, molecular genetic methods, cul- turing on so lid and liquid nutrient media of sputum, and, in case of bronchoscopy, BALF. The diagnosis of tuber- culosis was confirmed morphologically in all patients by histological examination of the surgical material. When analyzing the results of DR MBT, it was found that among the newly diagnosed patients, more than half (59.3%) had multiple (44.6%; p<0.001) and extensive drug resistance (14.7%; p=0.003), while in 74.5% (n=35/47) before the op- eration MBT were not detected in sputum. The frequency of development of drug resistance to anti-tuberculosis drugs of the first and reserve lines, and the structure of drug resis tance depending on the group of dispensary registration are presented. Comparative analysis of MBT LS isolated from sputum before operations and from the operating material was conducted. The results of the study showed a high percentage of MBT drug resistance obtained in the operating material in patients with nega- tive MBT tests. More than half of patients who did not receive antibiotic therapy before surgery have MDR and XDR, which suggests a high regional primary drug resist- ance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Currently, with the improvement of epidemic indicators for tuberculosis, the number of patients with drug-resistant forms of tuberculosis is increasing, which complicates and prolongs the treatment of such patients. The aim of the work is to study the drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis obtained from surgical material. Materials and methods: the study included 74 patients with medical and diagnostic operations on the chest organs. All patients were examined by standard methods: sputum and BAL microscopy with bronchoscopy (during the procedure), molecular genetic methods, culture on dense and liquid nutrient media. The diagnosis of tuberculosis was confirmed morphologically in all patients by histological examination of surgical material. When analyzing the results of drug resistance, it was found that among the newly identified patients, more than half (59.3%) had multiple (44.6%) p<0.005 and extensively drug resistance (14.7%) p= 0.003. At the same time, 74.5% (n= 35/47) of patients had no MBT in sputum before surgery. The frequency of development of drug resistance to first-and reserve-line antibacterial drugs, the structure of drug resistance depending on the group of dispensary registration is presented. A comparative analysis of drug sensitivity testing of MBT isolated from sputum before surgery and from surgical material was performed. The results of the study showed a high percentage of MBT drug resistance obtained in the operating material in patients with negative MBT tests. More than half of the patients who did not receive antibacterial therapy before surgery have multi drug resistance and extensively drug resistance, which suggests a high regional primary drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

: Tuberculosis is a disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), affecting millions of people worldwide. The emergence of drug resistance is a major problem in the successful treatment of tuberculosis. Due to the commencement of MDR-TB (multi-drug resistance) and XDR-TB (extensively drug resistance), there is a crucial need for the development of novel anti-tubercular agents with improved characteristics such as low toxicity, enhanced inhibitory activity and short duration of treatment. In this direction, various heterocyclic compounds have been synthesized and screened against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Among them, benzimidazole and imidazole containing derivatives found to have potential anti-tubercular activity. The present review focuses on various imidazole and benzimidazole derivatives (from 2015-2019) with their structure activity relationships in the treatment of tuberculosis.

ABSTRACTThe increasing incidence of extensively drug-resistant (XDR)Mycobacterium tuberculosisin high-tuberculosis-burden countries further highlights the need for improved rapid diagnostic assays. An increasing incidence of XDRM. tuberculosisstrains in Pakistan has been reported, but drug resistance-associated mutations in these strains have not been evaluated previously. We sequenced the “hot-spot” regions ofrpoB,katG,inhA,ahpC,gyrA,gyrB, andrrsgenes in 50 XDRM. tuberculosisstrains. It was observed that 2% of rifampin, 6% of isoniazid, 24% of fluoroquinolone, and 32% of aminoglycoside/capreomycin resistance in XDRM. tuberculosisstrains would be undetected if only these common hot-spot regions were tested. The frequencies of resistance-conferring mutations were found to be comparable among all XDRM. tuberculosisstrain families present, including the Central Asian Strain, Beijing, and East African Indian genogroups and the Unique isolates. Additional genetic loci need to be tested for detection of mutations conferring fluoroquinolone, aminoglycoside, and capreomycin resistance in order to improve molecular diagnosis of regional XDRM. tuberculosisstrains.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains of different phylogenetic lineages and genetic families differ in biological properties that determine, to some extent, epidemiological features and clinical manifestation in tuberculosis (TB) patients.The aim of the study was to assess the risk of an adverse outcome of the disease in TB patients caused by various M. tuberculosis genotypes.Materials and methods. A total of 425 patients with respiratory TB were enrolled in this study. They were registered at phthisiatric facilities in the Omsk region from March 2015 to June 2017 period and included: males — 73.1%, mean age 39.9 years, females — 26.9%, mean age 42.0 years. M. tuberculosis culture and drug susceptibility testing and DNA extraction were performed in accordance with standard methods. Strains were assigned to the M. tuberculosis Beijing genotype and its epidemiologically relevant clusters B0/W148 and 94-32 by PCR based detection of specific markers. Non-Beijing strains were subjected to spoligotyping.Results. We found that 66.5% isolates belonged to the Beijing genotype, 12.8% — to LAM, 10.1% — to T, and 4.7% — to the Ural genotype. Multi-drug resistance (MDR) to anti-TB drugs was observed in 195 M. tuberculosis strains (45.9%). Moreover, Beijing genotype was more often isolated from patients with MDR-TB infection (PR = 2.09 (95% CI 1.6–2.74) and TB infection associated with HIV infection (PR = 1.14 (95% CI 1.01–1.31). Lethal outcome was double higher in patients infected with Beijing vs. non-Beijing strains, 28.6% vs. 14.0% (PR = 2.03; 95% CI 1.3–3.17). The risk factors were identified as follows: young age 18–44 years (RR = 1.7; 95% CI 1.18–2.7), co-morbidity with HIV (RR = 5.0; 95% CI 3.39–7.45), multiple (RR = 1.7; 95% CI 1.14–2.55) and extensive drug resistance (RR = 2.57; 95% CI 1.35–4.92), and association with the Beijing genotype (RR = 2.0, 95% CI 1.3–3.17).Conclusion. M. tuberculosis spread in the Omsk region is characterised by significant prevalence of the Beijing genotype, associated with multiple and extensive drug resistance. A significant association of adverse clinical outcomes and various factors, including association with the Beijing genotype, requires development of new approaches in the fight against tuberculosis.

Aim. To estimate the detection rate and spectrum of primary drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT) in patients with tuberculosis (TB) in relation to their human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status in a region with high HIV infection rates (the Perm Territory) and to compare of drug-resistant MBT (DR-MBT) in patients with HIV/TB co-infection, by using phenotypic and molecular genetic testing (MGT) methods. Subjects and methods. The results of sputum bacteriological examination were analyzed in 178 HIV-infected patients and 354 non-HIV-infected individuals with a TB diagnosis made in the period July 1, 2014 to August 1, 2015. The diagnostic algorithm for all patients involved a duplicate sputum test for MBT by two techniques: fluorescence microscopy (FM) and inoculation into the Levenstein-Jensen dense culture medium. In patients with HIV/TB, the bacteriological examination was complemented with two more methods: detection of MBT DNA by a real-time polymerase chain reaction assay using the AmpliTube-RV system (Synthol, Russia); and inoculation into the Middlebrook liquid nutrient medium, by applying the automated BACTEC MGIT 960 system. Results. In patients with HIV/TB, the sensitivity of FM proved to be lower than in those with TB (24.2 and 32.8%, respectively; p0.05). The primary drug resistance of MBT in patients with HIV-TB was higher than that in HIV-negative individuals (60.2 and 41.6%, respectively; p
