Objective To explore distribution characteristics of drug-resistant mutations and analyze drug-resistant genotypes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Deyang district, Sichuan. Methods A total of 257 patients infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and positive for mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA who were detected from February 2010 to March 2013 were included in our research. Drug-resistance mutations were detected and analyzed using gene chip technology combining by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse dot hybridization (RDB). Results In these 257 pulmonary tuberculosis patients, drug-resistance mutations were detected in 49 with pulmonary tuberculosis. Drug-resistance mutation rate at katG 315, rpsL 43, embB 306 and rpoB 531 (S531L) was 11.67% (30/257), 7.00% (18/257), 4.28% (11/257) and 3.89% (10/257), respectively. In 234 initially treated pulmonary tuberculosis patients, the rate of isoniazid-resistant genotype, rifampicin-resistant genotype, ethambutol-resistant genotype, streptomycin-resistant genotype and multi-drug resistant genotype was 9.83%, 4.27%, 3.42%, 5.13% and 2.99%, respectively. In 23 retreated pulmonary tuberculosis patients, these rates was 52.17%, 26.09%, 13.04%, 43.48% and 13.04%, respectively. Conclusion In Deyang district, Sichuan, drug-resistant genotypes for isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol and streptomycin are detected in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Most of the drug-resistant mutations occur at katG 315, rpsL 43, embB 306 and rpoB 531. The rates of drug-resistant genotypes and multi-drug resistance in initially treated pulmonary tuberculosis patients are lower than those in retreated patients. Multi-drug resistant rate is relatively low in our research.
