BACKGROUND: The current study aimed to identify Iranian Nakaseomyces (Candida) glabrata complex species in the clinical isolates and determine their antifungal susceptibility profile.
METHODS: In total, 320 N. glabrata clinical isolates were collected from patients hospitalized in different geographical regions of Iran. The initial screening was performed by morphological characteristics on CHROMagar Candida. Each isolate was identified by targeting the D1/D2 rDNA using a multiplex-PCR method. To validate the mPCR method and determine genetic diversity, the ITS-rDNA region was randomly sequenced in 40 isolates. Additionally, antifungal susceptibility was evaluated against nine antifungal agents following the CLSI M27-A4 guidelines.
RESULTS: All clinical isolates from Iran were identified as N. glabrata. The analysis of ITS-rDNA sequence data revealed the presence of eight distinct ITS clades and 10 haplotypes among the 40 isolates of N. glabrata. The predominant clades identified were Clades VII, V, and IV, which respectively accounted for 22.5%, 17.5%, and 17.5% isolates. The widest MIC ranges were observed for voriconazole (0.016-8 μg/mL) and isavuconazole (0.016-2 μg/mL), whereas the narrowest ranges were seen with itraconazole and amphotericin B (0.25-2 μg/mL).
CONCLUSION: Haplotype diversity can be a valuable approach for studying the genetic diversity, transmission patterns, and epidemiology of the N. glabrata complex.
