外阴阴道念珠菌病患者临床分离菌株的菌种及基因型分析

目的 探讨初发型、复发型外阴阴道念珠菌病患者及健康带菌者阴道分离的念珠菌菌种及菌株基因型与初发及复发的关系。方法 选择分别来自健康带菌者、外阴阴道念珠菌病患者和复发性外阴阴道念珠菌病患者。首先经菌种鉴定,然后用RAPD技术对来自3组人群的菌株进行基因分型。结果 临床分离株菌种鉴定结果为白念珠菌83株,非白念珠菌共14株。从9个随机引物中筛选出的2条引物(引物4和引物7)对初发组、复发组及健康带菌组分离株的扩增带型多数未表现出与菌株来源的联系,但少数菌株依来源不同表现出了一定区别。引物4和引物7可将来源于不同临床分型的97株菌及2株标准菌株分成19型和21型。结论 外阴阴道念珠菌病致病菌以白念珠菌为主,非白念珠菌中以光滑念珠菌为主。

Species and Genotypes of Clinical Isolates of Candida Strains from Patients with Vulvovaginal Candidiasis

Objective To investigate the species and DNA polymorphism of Candida strains from different individuals and to find the relationship between the species or DNA patterns of strains and different patient groups. Methods The present study chose the isolates from 3 different sources groups(from the patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis, recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis or asymptomatic carriers respectively). Germ tube test, chlamydospore test, CHROMagar Candida and API20 kit system were applied to separate non-Candida albicans strains from Candida albicans. Random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was used to study DNA typing of 97 strains of Candida collected from different patients and to determine whether isolates from different patients were genetically similar or dissimilar. The data were analyzed by SPSS10.0. Results The ninety-seven isolates consisted of 83 strains of Candida albicans and 14 of non-Candida albicans. Of 9 random primers used, two primers (primer 4 and primer 7) gave good reactions, the sequences of which were 5'-ACCCGACCTG-3', 5'-GGTGACGCAG-3' respectively. The 99 isolates could be classified into 19 and 21 genotypes by the two primers respectively. Different genotype was not shown in most isolates from different groups. A particular genotype associated with different conditions was seen in only a few isolates. Conclusion Candida albicans is the main pathogenic yeasts and most strains of non-Candida albicans are C.glabrata in the vulvovaginal candidiasis. Genotyping of most isolates didn't show obvious correlation with different patient groups.
