In vivo virulence of Beijing genotype Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype strains comprise 50–80% in Russian Federation, which are divided into the main B0/W148, CladeA, and CAO clusters based on VNTR and SNP analysis. It should be noted that such phylogenetically highly close MTB strains belong to the modern Beijing family, gen...

In vivo virulence of Beijing genotype Mycobacterium tuberculosis
description Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype strains comprise 50–80% in Russian Federation, which are divided into the main B0/W148, CladeA, and CAO clusters based on VNTR and SNP analysis. It should be noted that such phylogenetically highly close MTB strains belong to the modern Beijing family, generally demonstrating high transmissibility, association with drug resistance, and prevalence among patients with severe forms of the disease. However, studies on MTB genetic cluster strain-related virulence are scarce and contradictory. Here, we investigated virulence of diverse Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains belonging to the B0/W148, CladeA and CAO clusters and nonclustered strain NK of the Beijing family as well as laboratory strain H37Rv in C57BL/6 mice. It was found that mice infected with NK and B0/W148 vs. CladeA strains revealed the peak and the lowest mortality, respectively, while assessing survival rate in various groups (20 mice per MTB strain examined).
