Here we present current global epidemiological and microbiological trends for typhoid fever, as well as describe antimicrobial susceptibility and resistance mechanisms of S. Typhi. The data on examining 299 S. Typhi isolates collected in 2005-2018 in the Russian Federation were analyzed from the Russian S. Typhi Reference Center. It was found that S. Typhi population consisted of the isolates with different resistance phenotypes and mechanisms as well as genetic heterogeneity. Moreover, antimicrobial susceptibility was detected in as low as 10.4% S. Typhi strains, whereas 89.6% isolates showed fluoroquinolone resistance (including 7.3% high-level resistance) and 3.0% - multidrug resistance to am-picillin, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, tetracycline and fluoroquinolones. All strains preserved susceptibility to extended-spectrum cephalosporins and azithromycin. Fluoroquinolone low-level resistance in S. Typhi was due to single nucleotide substitutions in the gyrA: Asp87Asn (78.7%) Ser83Tyr (5.0%) and Ser83Phe (3.2%). In addition, a plasmid-mediated low-level fluoroquinolone resistance (qnrS) was found in one isolate. In contrast, a fluoroquinolone high-level resistance in S. Typhi was due to accumulation of three single nucleotide substitutions in the genes gyrA (Asp87Asn+Ser83Phe) andparC (Ser80Ile). In multidrug resistant S. Typhi isolates, pHCMl plasmids of incompatibility group IncHI1B(R27) (consisted of blaTEM.1, catA1, dfrA7 and tetB) and single nucleotide substitutions Ser83Tyr or Asp87Asn in gene gyrA were detected. The data of phylogenetic reconstruction based on the analysis of core singlenucleotide variations among examined and previously sequenced S. Typhi genomes, demonstrated that more than 80.0% of S. Typhi isolated in Russia were referred to the Asian genotype as they belonged to subclade 4.3.1 (by Wong et al.) or dominant H58 clade (H58 haplotype by Roumagnac et al.). More than 60.0% isolates in this dominant phylogenetic group possessed a fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to gyrA Asp87Asn. Less than 20.0% of S. Typhi strains isolated in Russia phylogenetically belonged to the subclades other than 4.3.1 (non-H58) and differed from the major S. Typhi population by lacked antibiotic resistance or exerted fluoroquinolone resistance due to gyrA Ser83Phe. The study data allowed to expand our understanding on genetic diversity in S. Typhi strains isolated recently and pinpoint features of phylogenetic structure for S. Typhi population in the Russian Federation.

В статье представлены современные глобальные эпидемиологические и микробиологические тенденции брюшного тифа, описаны чувствительность и механизмы резистентности к антибиотикам. Приведены результаты исследования 299 штаммов S. Typhi, выделенных в 2005-2018 гг. в Российской Федерации, из коллекции российского референс-центра по мониторингу возбудителя брюшного тифа. Популяция штаммов S. Typhi, характеризовалась различными фенотипами и механизмами резистентности к антибиотикам и генетической неоднородностью. Чувствительными к антибиотикам были 10,4% штаммов, 89,6% штаммов характеризовались устойчивостью к фторхинолонам (7,3% штаммов - устойчивостью высокого уровня), 3,0% - множественной устойчивостью к ампициллину, хлорамфениколу, триметоприм/сульфаметоксазолу, тетрациклину и фторхинолонам. Все штаммы сохраняли чувствительность к цефалоспоринам расширенного спектра и азитромицину. Устойчивость низкого уровня к фторхинолонам у штаммов S. Typhi обусловлена однонуклеотидными заменами в гене gyrA: Asp87Asn (78,7%), Ser83Tyr (5,0%) и Ser83Phe (3,2%). У одного штамма выявлена плазмидоопосредованная устойчивость низкого уровня к фторхинолонам (ген qnrS). Устойчивость высокого уровня к фторхинолонам обусловлена сочетанием трех однонуклеотидных замен: в гене gyrA (Asp87Asn+Ser83Phe) и parC (Ser80Ile). У штаммов с множественной устойчивостью выявлены плазмиды pHCMl группы несовместимости IncHI1B(R27), которые включали гены blaTEM-1, catA1, dfrA7 и tetB, и однонуклеотидные замены Ser83Tyr и Asp87Asn в гене gyrA. По результатам филогенетической реконструкции, проведенной на основе анализа коровых однонуклеотидных вариаций среди исследуемых и ранее секвенированных геномов S. Typhi из разных регионов мира (порядка 1700 штаммов), показано, что более 80,0% российских штаммов относились к азиатскому генотипу, поскольку принадлежали к филогенетической линии гаплотипа Н58 (Roumagnac et al.) или субкладе 4.3.1 (Wong et al.). Более, чем 60,0% штаммов этого генотипа были идентичны по фенотипу и механизму резистентности: устойчивость низкого уровня к фторхинолонам, обусловленная мутацией gyrA Asp87Asn. Менее 20,0% исследуемых штаммов филогенетически относились к другим субкладам (не 4.3.1) и отличались от основной популяции возбудителя брюшного тифа отсутствием резистентности к антибиотикам, либо имели резистентность к хинолонам, обусловленную однонуклеотидной заменой gyrA Ser83Phe. Результаты исследования позволили расширить представление о генетическом разнообразии штаммов S. Typhi, выделенных за последние годы на территории РФ, и определить особенности популяционной структуры возбудителя брюшного тифа.

Introduction

Typhoid fever is registered worldwide and has not yet been eradicated globally. According to the most recent WHO estimates, between 11 and 21 million cases and 128,000 to 161,000 typhoid-related deaths occur annually worldwide (https://www.who.int/im-munization/diseases/typhoid/en). The real typhoid fever incidence is difficult to assess due to the lack of reliable laboratory diagnostic in typhoid-endemic countries (especially in Africa), and among infants and young children. Some population-based studies showed a wide variation in the typhoid fever incidence (from single cases to > 500 per 100,000 per year), both at the global level and within individual countries [10, 25].

Typhoid fever continues to be a serious public health problem in the regions of sub-Saharan Africa, South and South-East Asia, and Oceania with the lowest population coverage with safety water and

good sanitation facilities. In these countries the urbanization, which leads to overcrowding, increases the probability of outbreaks. Also the serious problem is that typhoid fever is common among children under 5 years of age in many endemic countries. The lack of appropriate laboratory facilities and poor access to the hospital-level healthcare are the important reasons of the delaying in effective antimicrobial treatment, the increasing the frequency of complications, deaths and chronic carriers. In economy developed countries, the typhoid fever is usually registered in tourists returning from typhoid endemic countries (India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Indonesia, etc.). Often typhoid fever is imported by the labour migrants from the endemic countries.

In 1972 epidemic S. Typhi isolates resistant to first-line antibiotics (ampicillin, chloramphenicol and trimethoprim/sulfametoxazole) were isolated (so called "multi drug resistant S. Typhi", MDRST) [29]. The number of MDRST has increased rapidly

in South Asia and South Africa. Thus, in Vietnam, the first MDRST was isolated in 1993, but in 2005 almost 90.0% of S. Typhi isolated in this country were MDRST, so these antibiotics have lost their importance in the treatment of typhoid fever [45]. In the UK, MDRST ranged from 20.0 to 40.0% in the 1990s, and about 90.0% of MDRST cases were associated with travel to Pakistan and India [45]. Fluoroquinolone (ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin) has become the drug of choice following the emergence of MDRST [14], but the spread of isolates with decreased susceptibility to ciprofloxacin has limited their effectiveness. In recent years, the proportion of fluoroquinolones resistant S. Typhi with low-level resistance (MIC of ciprofloxacin 0.12-0.5 mg/l) reaches 70.0-80.0%. The uncontrolled access to fluoroquinolones has led to the rapid spread of resistant S. Typhi in SouthEast Asia. Several global studies conducted in 1995— 2012 in eight Asian countries, cover about 80.0% of world's typhoid fever cases (India, Vietnam, Nepal, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, China), showed that the MDRST proportion decreased from 16.0 to 37.0%. In Vietnam and India the fluo-roquinolone low-level resistant S. Typhi increased to 97.0%, in other countries — to 65.0%; moreover, there was a dramatically rapid increasing in such resistance from 4.0 to 97.0% [9, 19].

The gradual decline of MDRST proportion in typhoid-endemic Asian countries in recent years is likely due to the change in the antibiotic treatment of typhoid fever. Antibiotic change has decreased the selective pressure and caused the elimination of plasmids carrying the multidrug resistance genes. At the same time, MDRST proportion is high in the countries of West Africa: from 20.0 to 60.0% of S. Typhi isolated in Nigeria, Cameroon, Guinea in 2000—2013 were multidrug resistant due to plas-mids IncHI1, but quinolone resistance due to gyrA mutations was rare found [7, 22].

In developed countries with mainly imported cases of the typhoid fever, the situation with antimicrobial resistance in S. Typhi repeats the situation in the "source" endemic countries. According to CDC in the USA the proportion of resistant S. Typhi increased from 25.6% (in 2002) to 75.5% (in 2014) and the level of quinolone resistant S. Typhi is constantly growing (from 23.6% in 2002 to 77.6% in 2014), MDRST was about 12.0% [8]. The travel persons had the highest chance to be infected by resistant S. Typhi in the Indian subcontinent countries: 65.0% of patients in USA and 32.0% in France infected in these countries had a quinolone resistant S. Typhi [8, 45].

In 2003 the World Health Organization published the guidelines that recommended azithromycin, cef-triaxone, or cefixime for the treatment of quinolone-resistant S. Typhi and S. Paratyphi A infections [48]. Extended-spectrum cephalosporins (ceftriaxone and cefixime) are commonly used for typhoid fever in children and caused by MDRST or fluoroqui-

nolone resistant S. Typhi. Since 2007 in Asia (India, Kuwait, Nigeria, Korea, Pakistan, Bangladesh) and Africa (Nigeria, Congo) S. Typhi producing both ESBL (mainly CTX-M15 and SHV-12) and AmpC cephalosporinases (CMY-2 and ACC-1) have been isolated. Single isolates of S. Typhi isolated in European countries (Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Spain) and the United States were imported from Asia [3-6, 16-18, 20, 34-40].

So, S. Typhi has acquired the resistance to almost all antibiotics used to the treatment of typhoid fever at the different time. This pathogen has adapted to the antimicrobial selective pressure by the various molecular mechanisms: the emergence of chromosomal mutations or the acquisition of mobile genetic elements containing resistance genes. The widespread of S. Typhi resistant to the fluoroquinolones and the emergence of isolates resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins mean that the choice of antibiotics for the treatment of typhoid fever is limited.

The classical subtyping techniques used by public health laboratories such as phage typing or pulsed-field gel electrophoresis are phylogenetically naive (don't reflect phylogenetic relatedness among strains) and have limited discriminatory power to support an objective picture of the diversity of strains in global scale and evolution of this pathogen. Whole genome analysis showed that the global S. Typhi population is rather young, highly clonal and originated from a common ancestor existed so recently that multiple mutations have not yet accumulated (15,000-150,000 years ago) [2, 21, 24]. According to Enterobase (http://enterobase.warwick.ac.uk) more than 95.0% of the S. Typhi studied by MLST of 7 housekeeping genes belong to two genetically closely related sequence types ST1 and ST2.

To evaluate the phylogenetic relatedness in the higly clonal pathogen population, the genotyping method, based on the detection in the compared genomes of the whole range of core single-nucleotide variations (SNV) located both in coding and non-coding genome regions, is commonly used. The principle of SNV-typing of S. Typhi isolates is currently widely used to evaluate the pathogen population structure and to determine the relation between single or group strains.

In 2015, Wong et al. [46] carried out a large-scale study using a whole genome analysis of 1832 isolates of S. Typhi isolated in 63 countries. Phylogenetic analysis showed that most isolates belonged to the recently defined haplotype H58 [41, 46]. All these isolates contained the nucleotide substitution C2348902T in the position relative to the reference genome S. Typhi CT18. Moreover, the strains of H58 haplotype formed the two main sublineages I and II. Taking into account the time and place of S. Typhi isolation, their phylogenetic position and early facts of the intercontinental transmission, it was suggested that the earliest reservoir for H58 strains was the re-

gion of South Asia with further spread to SouthEast and West Asia, East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi) and South Africa [41, 46].

Wong et al. [47] proposed an algorithm for the rapid phylogenetic classification of the strain genome. This analysis is based on the detection of specific nucleotide polymorphisms causing the branch divergence on a pre-reconstructed phylogenetic tree [46]. In practice, the researcher analyzes only one isolate genomic data and understands its phylogenet-ic position on the global phylogenetic tree. According to this analysis, the global S. Typhi population is divided into 4 primary cluster (1—4), which in turn are divided into 16 clades and 49 subclade [47]. Although this analysis does not allow to establish the exact phy-logenetic position of the isolate, but allows to determine the geographical region of the isolate origin.

The Russian Federation isn't typhoid-end em -ic country, and according to the official registration the incidence is low (0.03—0.1 per 100,000 per year) and sporadic. In the last ten years (2009—2018) in Russia 320 cases of typhoid fever were registered as sporadic cases, group cases (2—4 persons) and several outbreaks (15—20 persons). The occurrence of outbreaks was possible due to hygiene and sanitation violations in the canteen (where the Asian cook was a S. Typhi carrier) and in the hostel for the Asian labour migrants. Annually the typhoid fever cases are imported from endemic areas (Central, South and South-East Asia) by the Russians tourists, labour migrants and foreign students returned to Russian universities after the holiday in Asia home countries. In general, in 2008—2018 the typhoid fever was imported to Russia from 13 countries: Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan, Abkhazia, Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Egypt, Madagascar and the United Arab Emirates.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility and phylogenetic structure of the S. Typhi population isolated in Russia in 2005-2018.

Materials and methods

The study included 299 isolates from the collection of the Russian S. Typhi Reference Center isolated in 21 administrative regions of the Russian Federation in 2005-2018: St. Petersburg and Leningrad region, Moscow, Ivanovo, Ryazan, Arkhangelsk, Tula, Smolensk, Voronezh, Orel, Novgorod, Ulyanovsk, Irkutsk, Kaliningrad, Kemerovo, Tomsk, Kirov, Krasnoyarsk, Khabarovsk, Khanty-Mansi and in the Jewish Autonomous region.

The set of antimicrobials for testing was selected in order to reflect the importance for treatment and surveillance: the drugs of choice or alternative for the treatment of typhoid fever (ciprofloxacin, azithromy-cin, cefotaxime, ampicillin, chloramphenicol, tri-methoprim/sulfametoxazole); the indicators of clini-

cally important resistance mechanisms (amoxicillin/ clavulanic acid, ceftazidime, nalidixic acid, pefloxa-cin); the antibiotics critical important for the public health that may be needed for future treatment of MDRST (meropenem); the additional epidemiological markers for outbreak investigation (aminogly-cosides, tetracycline).

Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was made by disk diffusion method and E-test with Mueller-Hinton agar and discs of Oxoid and E-tests of bioMerieux, according to EUCAST (http://www. eucast.org/fileadmin /src/media/PDFs/ EUCAST_ files/Breakpoint_tables/v_8.0_Breakpoint_Tables. pdf) and Russian clinical guidelines "Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of microorganisms", version 2015 (http://www.antibiotic.ru/minzdrav/files/docs/ clrec-dsma2015.pdf). The fluoroquinolones were tested by disk diffusion method (with nalidixic acid and pefloxacin) and E-test (MIC of ciprofloxacin). We used the following breakpoints for the category "resistant" to fluoroquinolones: inhibition zone of pefloxacin < 24 mm, nalidixic acid < 16 mm, and MIC of ciprofloxacin > 0.06 mg/l. Susceptibility of S. Typhi to azithromycin was determined by E-test, the isolates with MIC < 16.0 mg/l were interpreted as "susceptible".

Plasmid-mediated fluoroquinolone resistance (genes qnr S, A, B and aac(6')-Ib-cr) was detected in 299 S. Typhi isolates by PCR according to previously published protocols [32, 38].

Whole genome sequencing of 117 S. Typhi was performed on the device MiSeq (Illumina, USA) with MiSeq Reagent Kit v3 600 cycles. Genomic DNA was isolated by the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (Qiagen, Germany). Genome libraries were prepared using MiSeq Nextera XT (Illumina, USA). Genome assembly and analysis was performed using CLC Genomics Workbench 8.0 (Qiagen, Germany). Detection of chromosomal mutations (in gyrA, gyrB, parC and parE genes), acquired resistance genes and plasmids was made using the online-services ResFinder and PlasmidFinder (https://cge.cbs. dtu.dk).

To reconstruct the global phylogenetic tree, we analyzed a set of 1683 S. Typhi isolates, which included both Russian isolates and isolates sequenced in previous studies. Thus, the set of S. Typhi isolates under our investigation was characterized by the wide isolation time period (from 1905 to 2013) and broad geographical origin (63 countries, 6 continents (Asia, Africa, North and South America, Europe, Australia and Oceania).

The detection of orthological SNV was performed using the previously developed algorithm of data analysis [27]. The nucleotide sequence of S. Typhi CT18 strain (NCBI acc. AL513382) was used as a reference genome. The resulting matrix of ortholo-gous SNV was used for phylogenetic reconstruction in RAxML software, the model GTR+I was used as

a model of nucleotide substitutions. Bootstrap analysis was carried out with the number of repetitions 1000. The phylogenetic tree visualization was carried out in the program Figtree v1.3.1.

Additionally, Russian S. Typhi isolates were analyzed by Genotyphi software (https://github.com/ katholt/genotyphi) according to the aurthor's instructions.

All S. Typhi isolates gave the good bacterial grows and formed the typical colonies on selective and non-selective Russian and foreign media for Enterobacterales represented in the Russian market. S. Typhi had typical biochemical activities and serological formula (9, 12, Vi: d:-). All isolates had a well-developed Vi-antigen; moreover, 36 isolates (12.0%) had a highly developed Vi-antigen, which did not allow to identify the O-group. All isolates were well lysed by liquid therapeutic bacteriophage for Salmonella of groups A, B, C, D, E (produced by Microgen, Russian Federation).

Antimicrobial susceptibility of S. Typhi

The S. Typhi population was represented by both antimicrobial susceptible (31 isolates, 10.4%) and resistant (268 isolates, 89.6%) isolates. The proportion of isolates resistant to fluoroquinolone was 89.6%, to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim/sul-

fametoxazole and tetracycline — by 2.7%. S. Typhi resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins, car-bapenems, aminoglycosides and azithromycin were not detected (tabl. 1).

So, in our study 89.6% of S. Typhi isolates were found to be resistant to fluoroquinolones — the drugs of choice for the treatment of typhoid fever. 82.3% of S. Typhi had the low-level resistance with MIC of ciprofloxacin 0.125—0.5 mg/l, 7.3% of isolates — the high-level resistance with MIC 8.0—32.0 mg/l. All S. Typhi were susceptible to azithromycin with MIC90 8.0 mg/l, seven isolates had "critical" MIC 16.0 mg/l.

The S. Typhi population divided into 3 resistance phenotypes: susceptible to all tested antibiotics (31 isolates, 10.4%), resistant only to fluoroquinolones (260 isolates, 86.9%) and multidrug resistant, MDRST (to fluoroquinolones, ampicillin, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, tetracy-cline) (8 isolates, 2.7%).

Susceptible isolates of S. Typhi were isolated in 9 regions of the Russian Federation: St. Petersburg (2005-2012, 2014), Leningrad region (2009, 2014), Moscow (2011), Irkutsk (2005, 2012), Orel (2009), Voronezh (2015), Novgorod (2009), Ulyanovsk (2010) and Kemerovo (2012). Fluoroquinolone resistant S. Typhi were isolated annually in all regions of Russia.

Eight S. Typhi had multidrug resistance: to fluo-roquinolones (low-level resistance, MIC ciprofloxa-

Six MDRST were isolated in 2005 and 2006 in St. Petersburg, Leningrad and Irkutsk oblast. During next six years (from 2007 to 2012) MDRST were not detected in Russia. In 2013 and 2015 two MDRST were isolated in St. Petersburg. The emergence of MDRST in Russia was associated with the import by labor migrants from Central Asia (Tajikistan and Uzbekistan).

Molecular resistance mechanisms of S. Typhi

Fluoroquinolone resistance molecular mechanisms of 117 S. Typhi were detected by FesFinder. Resistance phenotypes and molecular mechanisms of S. Typhi with different levels of fluoroquinolone resistance are presented in tabl. 2. No mutations in chromosomal genes gyrA, gyrB, parC and parE or acquired resistance plasmid genes were found in susceptible S. Typhi. The group of fluoroquinolone resistant S. Typhi (94 isolates) had different mutations in gyrA and parC. Isolates with low-level resistance had a single nucleotide substitution in gyrA, the most frequent in codon 83 of gyrA Asp87Asn (78.7%). S. Typhi with these phenotype and mutation were isolated annually in all region of Russia. Three S. Typhi with single nucleotide substitution in gyrA Ser83Phe were isolated in St. Petersburg and Arkhangelsk (according epidemiological data S. Typhi from Arkhangelsk was imported to Russia from India in 2012). In five S. Typhi the substitution in gyrA Ser83Tyr was detected: one isolate with additional multidrug resistance was isolated in St. Petersburg in 2006, other four S. Typhi were isolated in 2011 in St. Petersburg, Irkutsk, Tula and Arkhangelsk. So, the identical fluo-roquinolone resistance phenotype (low-level resistance) in S. Typhi was caused by three different single nucleotide substitutions in gyrA.

All studied S. Typhi with fluoroquinolone highlevel resistance had three single nucleotide substitu-

tions simultaneously: in gyrA (Ser83Phe + Asp87Asn) and parC (Ser80Ile). S. Typhi isolates with fluoroqui-nolone high-level resistance were isolated in 20052018 in seven regions of Russia: St. Petersburg (2007, 2013), Kaliningrad (2011, 2012), Smolensk (2012), Voronezh (2014), Kirov (2015), Arkhangelsk (2015) and Khanty-Mansiysk (2016). In all cases, the patients were infected travelling to India (tourists, Indian students of Russian universities).

Plasmid-mediated fluoroquinolone resistance (qnrS) was found in one S. Typhi isolate with "paradox" phenotype of quinolones resistance: MIC of ciprofloxacin 0.25 mg/l (low-level resistance), but susceptibility to nalidixic acid (MIC 4.0 mg/l), which is common for plasmid-mediated fluoroqui-nolone resistance.

Multidrug resistance in 8 S. Typhi isolates was mediated by the plasmid pHCM1 (incompatibility group IncHI1B(R27)) PST6, which included genes b/aTEM_1, catA1, dfrA7and tetB. Fluoroquinolone low-level resistance in these isolates was associated with single nucleotide substitutions in gyrA Ser83Tyr or Asp87Asn.

Phylogenetic structure of S. Typhi population isolated in Russia in 2005-2018

We constructed the global S. Typhi phylogeny by SNV analysis of 1683 isolates of S. Typhi including 92 S. Typhi isolated in the Russian Federation with different antimicrobial resistance phenotypes and mechanisms.

In the global phylogenetic tree Russian S. Typhi isolates were clustered into several phylogenetic groups. The most of them (82.6%) belonged to the dominant H58 haplotype of S. Typhi (fig., tabl. 3). The phylogenetic lineage of H58 was heterogeneous: S. Typhi isolates were clustered into three phylogenetic groups (designated as G1, G2 and G3), and five isolates had individual genotypes (designated as S1-S5). 60.0% isolates of H58 belonged to the group G3 and had identical resistance phenotype (fluo-

roquinolone low-level resistance) and resistance mechanism (single nucleotide substitution in gyrA Asp87Asn).

The phylogenetic group G1 (11.2%) included S. Typhi with fluoroquinolone high-level resistance mediated by three single nucleotide substitutions: gyrA (Ser83Phe+Asp87Asn) + parC Ser80Ile. The S. Typhi isolates of the phylogenetic group G2 (7.8%) had the identical resistance mechanism (fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to gyrA Asp87Asn), but two isolates also had additional multidrug resistance associated with the plasmid IncHI1B(R27). Five S. Typhi H58 isolates with individual genotypes (S1-S5) were susceptible to antibiotics or had fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to gyrA Ser83Tyr — the single nucleotide substitution, which was not found in other phylogenetic groups.

The described phylogenetic groups of H58 clade included S. Typhi isolated in different regions of Russian during all years under study. Epidemiological data was agreed with phylogenetic analysis as well as antimicrobial susceptibility. The isolates from the same outbreaks (St. Petersburg 2006, Moscow 2013) or group cases (Kaliningrad 2012, Irkutsk 2016) were clustered together in one phylogenetic group and had identical antimicrobial resistance patterns due to identical single nucleotid substitutions.

In groups of non-H58 S. Typhi almost all isolates were susceptible to antibiotics except one isolate with fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to the single

nucleotide substitution in gyrA Ser83Phe, detected in other phylogenetic groups only in combinations with other single nucleotide substitution. Some isolates were clustered into phylogenetic groups (designated as G4-G6), others had individual genotypes (fig., tabl. 3).

Additional analysis of sequenced S. Typhi genomes by Genotyphi software showed that Russian S. Typhi population was represented by the isolates of all four primary clusters, but mainly — by the cluster 4 (83.7%) (tabl. 3). Within cluster 4, the majority of isolates (82.6%) belonged to subclade 4.3.1. According to Wong et al. [47] progentor S. Typhi isolates of this subclade are originated from the countries in South-East and South Asia. It should be noted that all isolates of the subclade 4.3.1. belonged to the phylogenetic lineage of H58 haplotype defined by the global phylogeny. At the same time, Russian isolates of the subclade 4.3.1. were further clustered in two genetic clusters. The cluster 4.3.1.1 (68.5%) mainly included the isolates with fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to gyrA Asp87Asn, and the cluster 4.3.1.2 (14.1%) — the isolates with fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to non-common nucleotide substitution in gyrA Ser83Tyr, and the isolates with high-level resistance due to three single nucleotide substitutions: gyrA (Ser83Phe+Asp87Asn) and parC (Ser80Ile). Furthermore, within cluster 4, one antimicrobial susceptible S. Typhi isolate (Voronezh, 2015) belonged to subclade 4.1.1 and was probably of African origin.

Primary cluster 1, subclade 1.2.1 included eight antimicrobial susceptible S. Typhi isolates, also belonged to the same phylogenetic group (G6). It is interesting to note that some susceptible S. Typhi from our collection, isolated in Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan in 2010 and 2012, also belonged to this subclade. According to Wong et al. [47] the S. Typhi isolates of subclade 1.2.1 originate from countries in South-East Asia.

The primary clusters 2 and 3 and their subclades in our study were presented by single S. Typhi isolates full susceptible to antibiotics or with fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to gyrA Ser83Phe (not detected as single substitution in other clusters).

Discussion

The S. Typhi population isolated in 2005—2018 in St. Petersburg and 20 other regions of the Russian Federation consisted of the isolates with different resistance phenotypes and mechanisms and genetically heterogeneous. Only 10.4% S. Typhi were susceptible to antibiotics, 89.6% S. Typhi had fluoroquinolone resistance (7.3% with high-level resistance), which is a clinical fail predictor of using the fluoroquinolones for the empirical treatment of typhoid fever in Russia. Evaluation of the level of fluoroquinolone resistance in S. Typhi is important for choice of antimicrobial treatment of typhoid fever. There is clinical evidence of the ciprofloxacin poor clinical efficacy in typhoid fever, caused by S. Typhi with low-level resistance [11]. In this case, it is recommended to use alternative antibiotics: cephalosporins or azithromycin [13, 47]. But the some authors showed the high efficiency of gatifloxacin (the last generation fluoroquinolone) in treatment of typhoid fever when S. Typhi population had a high proportion of isolates with low-level resistance to ciprofloxacin [12, 44]. The fluoroquinolones (regardless of the drug or dosage) should not be used for S. Typhi with fluoroquinolone high-level resistance. The interpretive criteria for S. Typhi and ciprofloxacin differs from other Enterobacterales. According to EUCAST S. Typhi should be consider as "resistant" with MIC of ciprofloxacin > 0.06 mg/l. For the disc diffusion method, pefloxacin disc should be used instead of ciprofloxacin.

The level of fluoroquinolone resistance in Entero-bacterales (MIC of ciprofloxacin) depends on the resistance mechanisms. The primary targets for the fluoroquinolones are the subunits of DNA gyrase (GyrA and GyrB) and the topoisomerase IV (ParC and ParE). Nonsynonymous single nucleotide substitutions in the quinolone resistance-determining regions of chromosome genes gyrA, gyrB, parC and parE decrease the fluoroquinolone susceptibility [1, 9, 19, 26, 28, 31, 42]. Single nucleotide substitutions, mainly in gyrA, leads to low-level resistance (MIC of ciprofloxacin 0.12—0.5 mg/l), the most common nucleotide substitutions in S. Typhi are in the codons 83 and 87 of gyrA, leading to amino acid substitu-

tions Ser83Phe or Asp87Asn. Some plasmid-mediated mechanisms are associated with fluoroquinolone low-level resistance: in S. Typhi the genes qnrS, qnrB and aac(6')-Ib-cr are rarely described [15, 23, 30, 34, 43]. The emergence of high-level resistance (MIC of cipro-floxacin 1.0 mg/l and more) is always associated with the combination of several resistance mechanisms: the accumulation of single nucleotide substitutions in chromosomal genes or the acquisition of additional plasmid-mediated resistance genes by an isolate that already has any chromosomal resistance mutations.

Despite of identical fluoroquinolone resistance phenotype (low-level resistance) Russian S. Typhi population had different single nucleotide substitutions in gyrA: Asp87Asn (78.7%), Ser83Tyr (5.0%) and Ser83Phe (3.2%). High-level fluoroquinolone resistance was due to accumulation of three single nucleotide substitutions: gyrA (Asp87Asn+Ser83Phe) and parC (Ser80Ile). Plasmid-mediated fluoroquinolone low-level resistance (qnrS) was found in only one isolate. So, the leading fluoroquinolones resistance mechanism in Russian S. Typhi population is single nucleotide substitution in gyrA Asp87Asn.

About 3.0% of S. Typhi isolates had multidrug resistance to the antibiotics used for treatment of typhoid fever (fluoroquinolones, chloramphenicol, am-picillin, trimethoprim/sulfametoxazole). MDRST phenotype was a result of the acquisition plasmid-mediated resistance genes (blaTEM_1, catAl, dfrA7and tetB) by the isolates that already had a chromosomal mutation in gyrA Ser83Tyr or Asp87Asn. It also complicates the antibiotic choice for the therapy of typhoid fever caused by such isolates.

Taking into account the wide spread of fluoroquinolone resistant S. Typhi and the lack of the resistance to extended-spectrum cephalosporins and azithromy-cin, these antibiotics can be considered as the drugs of first choice for the treatment of typhoid fever in Russia. EUCAST has no criteria for the interpretation of azithromycin for Enterobacterales, and it is proposed to use the "epidemiological cut off value" and consider as "susceptible" to azithromycin the isolates with MIC < 16.0 mg/l. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of azithromycin by disc diffusion method isn't possible due to the lack of interpretation criteria for this method, as well as uncertain test results [33].

More than 80.0% of S. Typhi isolates, imported to the Russian Federation in 2005—2018, belonged to successful international Asian clone — "subclade 4.3.1" by Wong et al. [47] or dominant H58 clade of S. Typhi [41, 46] and with high probability originated from the countries of South-East and South Asia. In Russia, this dominant phylogenetic group mainly included the isolates with the same resistance phenotype and mechanisms: about 60.0% had fluoroquinolone low-level resistance due to the single nucleotide substitution in gyrA Asp87Asn. All S. Typhi isolates with fluoroquinolone high-level resistance (due tree single nucleotide substitutions in gyrA and

parC) and MDRST isolates also belonged to sub-clade 4.3.1. The isolates of this subclade caused the typhoid fever cases in different years in all regions of the Russian Federation. According the epidemiological data in many cases the patients were infected travelling to India (the tourists and Indian students of Russian universities). Only single S. Typhi isolates belonged to subclades other then 4.3.1 and differed by full antimicrobial susceptibility or the mutations non common for Russian S. Typhi population.

Based on the results of this study, the Russian S. Typhi Reference Center Database was created.

As well as in other economic developed countries, the cases of the typhoid fever in the Russian Federation are mainly caused by resistant S. Typhi imported by the tourists, students or labor migrants from typhoid-endemic South-East Asia countries. In this situation the patients with fever and diarrhea who visited these countries within the incubation period (14—21 days) should be obligatory blood and faces examined for S. Typhi. Despite of the only sporadic typhoid fever cases registered annually in Russia, the antimicrobial resistance of S. Typhi is a serious problem in our country.
