Objectives: The rapid emergence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii is a global health concern. A comparative genomic analysis was performed on two ST85 A. baumannii strains harboring bla(NDM-1) and bla(OXA-94) collected in Lebanon from Syrian Civil War victims. Methods: Genome sequencing data of ACMH-6200 and ACMH-6201 were used for in silico extraction of multilocus sequence types (MLST), resistance genes, and virulence factors. Plasmids were genetically mapped in silico and using PCR-based replicon typing (PBRT). The genetic environment of bla(NDM-1) and bla(OXA-94) was determined, and whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism (wgSNP) analysis in comparison with 41 publicly available A. baumannii genomes was performed. Results: Tn125 carrying bla(NDM-1) was truncated by the insertion of ISAba14 downstream of dct, generating Delta Tn125. bla(OXA-94) was upstream of ISAba13 and ISAba17. Resistance to ceftazidime could be attributed to AmpC cephalosporinase encoded by bla(ADC-25), and to bla(NDM-1) on plasmids. GyrA (S83L) and ParC (S80L) substitutions conferred resistance to fluoroquinolones. wgSNP analysis separated the isolates based on their sequence types. Conclusions: The role of refugees in the transmission of antimicrobial resistance in developing countries is understudied. As such, this study sheds light on the correlation between population mobility and the importation of drug-resistant pathogens. It also highlights the manifold mechanisms underlying antibiotic resistance in A. baumannii. (c) 2018 The Author(s).
