The population genetics of collateral resistance and sensitivity.

ABSTRACT: Resistance mutations against one drug can elicit collateral sensitivity against other drugs. Multi-drug treatments exploiting such trade-offs can help slow down the evolution of resistance. However, if mutations with diverse collateral effects are available, a treated population may evolve either collateral sensitivity or collateral resistance. How to design treatments robust to such uncertainty is unclear. We show that many resistance mutations in Escherichia coli against various antibiotics indeed have diverse collateral effects. We propose to characterize such diversity with a joint distribution of fitness effects (JDFE) and develop a theory for describing and predicting collateral evolution based on simple statistics of the JDFE. We show how to robustly rank drug pairs to minimize the risk of collateral resistance and how to estimate JDFEs. In addition to practical applications, these results have implications for our understanding of evolution in variable environments.

Systematic mapping of antibiotic cross-resistance and collateral sensitivity with chemical genetics.

Project description:By acquiring or evolving resistance to one antibiotic, bacteria can become cross-resistant to a second antibiotic, which further limits therapeutic choices. In the opposite scenario, initial resistance leads to collateral sensitivity to a second antibiotic, which can inform cycling or combinatorial treatments. Despite their clinical relevance, our knowledge of both interactions is limited. We used published chemical genetics data of the Escherichia coli single-gene deletion library in 40 antibiotics and devised a metric that discriminates between known cross-resistance and collateral-sensitivity antibiotic interactions. Thereby we inferred 404 cases of cross-resistance and 267 of collateral-sensitivity, expanding the number of known interactions by over threefold. We further validated 64/70 inferred interactions using experimental evolution. By identifying mutants driving these interactions in chemical genetics, we demonstrated that a drug pair can exhibit both interactions depending on the resistance mechanism. Finally, we applied collateral-sensitive drug pairs in combination to reduce antibiotic-resistance development in vitro.

Identification of antibiotic collateral sensitivity and resistance interactions in population surveillance data.

Project description:BackgroundCollateral effects of antibiotic resistance occur when resistance to one antibiotic agent leads to increased resistance or increased sensitivity to a second agent, known respectively as collateral resistance (CR) and collateral sensitivity (CS). Collateral effects are relevant to limit impact of antibiotic resistance in design of antibiotic treatments. However, methods to detect antibiotic collateral effects in clinical population surveillance data of antibiotic resistance are lacking.ObjectivesTo develop a methodology to quantify collateral effect directionality and effect size from large-scale antimicrobial resistance population surveillance data.MethodsWe propose a methodology to quantify and test collateral effects in clinical surveillance data based on a conditional t-test. Our methodology was evaluated using MIC data for 419 Escherichia coli strains, containing MIC data for 20 antibiotics, which were obtained from the Pathosystems Resource Integration Center (PATRIC) database.ResultsWe demonstrate that the proposed approach identifies several antibiotic combinations that show symmetrical or non-symmetrical CR and CS. For several of these combinations, collateral effects were previously confirmed in experimental studies. We furthermore provide insight into the power of our method for multiple collateral effect sizes and MIC distributions.ConclusionsOur proposed approach is of relevance as a tool for analysis of large-scale population surveillance studies to provide broad systematic identification of collateral effects related to antibiotic resistance, and is made available to the community as an R package. This method can help mapping CS and CR, which could guide combination therapy and prescribing in the future.

Is resistance useless? Multidrug resistance and collateral sensitivity.

Project description:When cancer cells develop resistance to chemotherapeutics, it is frequently conferred by the ATP-dependent efflux pump P-glycoprotein (MDR1, P-gp, ABCB1). P-gp can efflux a wide range of cancer drugs; its expression confers cross-resistance, termed "multidrug resistance" (MDR), to a wide range of drugs. Strategies to overcome this resistance have been actively sought for more than 30 years, yet clinical solutions do not exist. A less understood aspect of MDR is the hypersensitivity of resistant cancer cells to other drugs, a phenomenon known as "collateral sensitivity" (CS). This review highlights the extent of this effect for the first time, and discusses hypotheses (e.g. generation of reactive oxygen species) to account for the underlying generality of this phenomenon, and proposes exploitation of CS as a strategy to improve response to chemotherapy.

Collateral sensitivity associated with antibiotic resistance plasmids.

Project description:Collateral sensitivity (CS) is a promising alternative approach to counteract the rising problem of antibiotic resistance (ABR). CS occurs when the acquisition of resistance to one antibiotic produces increased susceptibility to a second antibiotic. Recent studies have focused on CS strategies designed against ABR mediated by chromosomal mutations. However, one of the main drivers of ABR in clinically relevant bacteria is the horizontal transfer of ABR genes mediated by plasmids. Here, we report the first analysis of CS associated with the acquisition of complete ABR plasmids, including the clinically important carbapenem-resistance conjugative plasmid pOXA-48. In addition, we describe the conservation of CS in clinical E. coli isolates and its application to selectively kill plasmid-carrying bacteria. Our results provide new insights that establish the basis for developing CS-informed treatment strategies to combat plasmid-mediated ABR.

Antibiotic Cycling Affects Resistance Evolution Independently of Collateral Sensitivity.

Project description:Antibiotic cycling has been proposed as a promising approach to slow down resistance evolution against currently employed antibiotics. It remains unclear, however, to which extent the decreased resistance evolution is the result of collateral sensitivity, an evolutionary trade-off where resistance to one antibiotic enhances the sensitivity to the second, or due to additional effects of the evolved genetic background, in which mutations accumulated during treatment with a first antibiotic alter the emergence and spread of resistance against a second antibiotic via other mechanisms. Also, the influence of antibiotic exposure patterns on the outcome of drug cycling is unknown. Here, we systematically assessed the effects of the evolved genetic background by focusing on the first switch between two antibiotics against Salmonella Typhimurium, with cefotaxime fixed as the first and a broad variety of other drugs as the second antibiotic. By normalizing the antibiotic concentrations to eliminate the effects of collateral sensitivity, we demonstrated a clear contribution of the evolved genetic background beyond collateral sensitivity, which either enhanced or reduced the adaptive potential depending on the specific drug combination. We further demonstrated that the gradient strength with which cefotaxime was applied affected both cefotaxime resistance evolution and adaptation to second antibiotics, an effect that was associated with higher levels of clonal interference and reduced cost of resistance in populations evolved under weaker cefotaxime gradients. Overall, our work highlights that drug cycling can affect resistance evolution independently of collateral sensitivity, in a manner that is contingent on the antibiotic exposure pattern.

Tackling antibiotic resistance by inducing transient and robust collateral sensitivity.

Project description:Collateral sensitivity (CS) is an evolutionary trade-off traditionally linked to the mutational acquisition of antibiotic resistance (AR). However, AR can be temporally induced, and the possibility that this causes transient, non-inherited CS, has not been addressed. Mutational acquisition of ciprofloxacin resistance leads to robust CS to tobramycin in pre-existing antibiotic-resistant mutants of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Further, the strength of this phenotype is higher when nfxB mutants, over-producing the efflux pump MexCD-OprJ, are selected. Here, we induce transient nfxB-mediated ciprofloxacin resistance by using the antiseptic dequalinium chloride. Notably, non-inherited induction of AR renders transient tobramycin CS in the analyzed antibiotic-resistant mutants and clinical isolates, including tobramycin-resistant isolates. Further, by combining tobramycin with dequalinium chloride we drive these strains to extinction. Our results support that transient CS could allow the design of new evolutionary strategies to tackle antibiotic-resistant infections, avoiding the acquisition of AR mutations on which inherited CS depends.

Acquired resistance to PRMT5 inhibition induces concomitant collateral sensitivity to paclitaxel.

Project description:Epigenetic regulators play key roles in cancer and are increasingly being targeted for treatment. However, for many, little is known about mechanisms of resistance to the inhibition of these regulators. We have generated a model of resistance to inhibitors of protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5). This study was conducted in KrasG12D;Tp53-null lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cell lines. Resistance to PRMT5 inhibitors (PRMT5i) arose rapidly, and barcoding experiments showed that this resulted from a drug-induced transcriptional state switch, not selection of a preexisting population. This resistant state is both stable and conserved across variants arising from distinct LUAD lines. Moreover, it brought with it vulnerabilities to other chemotherapeutics, especially the taxane paclitaxel. This paclitaxel sensitivity depended on the presence of stathmin 2 (STMN2), a microtubule regulator that is specifically expressed in the resistant state. Remarkably, STMN2 was also essential for resistance to PRMT5 inhibition. Thus, a single gene is required for both acquisition of resistance to PRMT5i and collateral sensitivity to paclitaxel in our LUAD cells. Accordingly, the combination of PRMT5i and paclitaxel yielded potent and synergistic killing of the murine LUAD cells. Importantly, the synergy between PRMT5i and paclitaxel also extended to human cancer cell lines. Finally, analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas patient data showed that high STMN2 levels correlate with complete regression of tumors in response to taxane treatment. Collectively, this study reveals a recurring mechanism of PRMT5i resistance in LUAD and identifies collateral sensitivities that have potential clinical relevance.

Population genetics of malaria resistance in humans.

Project description:The high mortality and widespread impact of malaria have resulted in this disease being the strongest evolutionary selective force in recent human history, and genes that confer resistance to malaria provide some of the best-known case studies of strong positive selection in modern humans. I begin by reviewing JBS Haldane's initial contribution to the potential of malaria genetic resistance in humans. Further, I discuss the population genetics aspects of many of the variants, including globin, G6PD deficiency, Duffy, ovalocytosis, ABO and human leukocyte antigen variants. Many of the variants conferring resistance to malaria are 'loss-of-function' mutants and appear to be recent polymorphisms from the last 5000-10 000 years or less. I discuss estimation of selection coefficients from case-control data and make predictions about the change for S, C and G6PD-deficiency variants. In addition, I consider the predicted joint changes when the two β-globin alleles S and C are both variable in the same population and when there is a variation for α-thalassemia and S, two unlinked, but epistatic variants. As more becomes known about genes conferring genetic resistance to malaria in humans, population genetics approaches can contribute both to investigating past selection and predicting the consequences in future generations for these variants.

Collateral sensitivity constrains resistance evolution of the CTX-M-15 β-lactamase.

Project description:Antibiotic resistance is a major challenge to global public health. Discovery of new antibiotics is slow and to ensure proper treatment of bacterial infections new strategies are needed. One way to curb the development of antibiotic resistance is to design drug combinations where the development of resistance against one drug leads to collateral sensitivity to the other drug. Here we study collateral sensitivity patterns of the globally distributed extended-spectrum β-lactamase CTX-M-15, and find three non-synonymous mutations with increased resistance against mecillinam or piperacillin-tazobactam that simultaneously confer full susceptibility to several cephalosporin drugs. We show in vitro and in mice that a combination of mecillinam and cefotaxime eliminates both wild-type and resistant CTX-M-15. Our results indicate that mecillinam and cefotaxime in combination constrain resistance evolution of CTX-M-15, and illustrate how drug combinations can be rationally designed to limit the resistance evolution of horizontally transferred genes by exploiting collateral sensitivity patterns.
