Project description:Objective: To investigate the molecular pathogenesis of bone with implant-associated osteomyelitis (IAOM) in early and chonic stages. Methods: After a 2 mm sterile stainless pin (0.3 mm in diameter) was inserted into the bone marrow cavity, 2 μl S. aureus solution at 1 × 10e6 CFU/ml was slowly injected into the bone marrow cavity using a micro-syringe to create IAOM mice while only an equal volume of sterile PBS to create controls. Transcriptomic sequencing was performed on day 3 and 14 post-operation, respectively. Differential expression analyses of IAOM_3D vs Ctrl_3D and of IAOM _14D vs Ctrl_14D were performed using the DESeq2 R package (1.16.1); P-values were adjusted using the Benjamini and Hochberg’s approach to control the false discovery rate. The genes with an adjusted P-value < 0.05 and |log2 (Fold Change)| > 1 were recognized as differentially expressed genes (DEGs). GO, KEGG and PPI analysis of DEGs were performed to identify key genes. Results: Differential expression analyses detected a total of 101 DEGs, among which 96 were up-regulated and 5 down-regulated in the femur, when the IAOM and control groups were compared by day 3 post-infection. The number of DEGs significantly increased up to 1,702 by day 14 post-operation, with 1,065 up-regulated and 637 down-regulated in the IAOM femurs compared with controls. Further GO, KEGG and PPI analyses of DEGs suggested that IL-6, CXCL10, IFN-γ and CXCL9 were associated with early development of IAOM. Conclusions: Our study has revealed transcriptomic characteristics of IAOM and suggested that IL-6, CXCL10, IFN-γ and CXCL9 might play an important role in the early stage of IAOM.

Project description:To explore how APOE functions in the mechanism of regulation of cholesterol metabolism during S. aureus osteomyelitis, we established S. aureus osteomyelitis models in WT mice and APOE knockout mice. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of bone marrow from mice mentioned above at day 7 after operation.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is the most common pathogen that causes implant-associated osteomyelitis, a clinically incurable disease. Immune evasion of S. aureus relies on various mechanisms to survive within the bone niche, including the secretion of leukotoxins such as Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL). PVL is a pore-forming toxin exhibiting selective human tropism for C5a receptors (C5aR1 and C5aR2) and CD45 on neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages. PVL is an important virulence determinant in lung, skin and soft tissue infections. The involvement of PVL in S. aureus pathogenesis during bone infections has not been studied extensively yet. To investigate this, humanized BALB/c Rag2-/-Il2rg-/-SirpaNODFlk2-/- (huBRGSF) mice were subjected to transtibial implant-associated osteomyelitis with community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) USA300 wild type strain (WT), an isogenic mutant lacking lukF/S-PV (Δpvl), or complemented mutant (Δpvl+pvl). Three days post-surgery, Δpvl-infected huBRGSF mice had a less severe infection compared to WT-infected animals as characterized by 1) improved clinical outcomes, 2) lower ex vivo bacterial bone burden, 3) absence of staphylococcal abscess communities (SACs) in their bone marrow, and 4) compromised MRSA dissemination to internal organs (liver, kidney, spleen, heart). Interestingly, Δpvl-infected huBRGSF mice had fewer human myeloid cells, neutrophils, and HLA-DR+ monocytes in the bone niche compared to WT-infected animals. Expectedly, a smaller fraction of human myeloid cells were apoptotic in the Δpvl-infected huBRGSF animals. Taken together, our study highlights the pivotal role of PVL during acute implant-associated osteomyelitis in humanized mice.

Project description:To investigate the molecular pathogenesis of bone with osteomyelitis, we developed implant-associated osteomyelitis (IAOM) models in mice. An orthopedic stainless pin was surgically placed in the right femoral midshaft of mice, followed by an inoculation of Staphylococcus aureus into the medullary cavity. Typical characteristics of IAOM, like periosteal reaction and intraosseous abscess, occurred by day 14 postinfection. By day 28 postinfection, necrotic abscess, sequestrum formation, and deformity of the whole femur were observed. Transcriptional analysis identified 101 and 1,702 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between groups by days 3 and 14 postinfection, respectively. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analyses revealed the enrichment of pathways in response to the bacterium, receptor-ligand activity, and chemokine signaling by day 3 postinfection. However, by day 14 postinfection, the enrichment switched to angiogenesis, positive regulation of cell motility and migration, skeletal system development, and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction. Furthermore, protein-protein interaction network analysis identified 4 cytokines (interleukin 6 [IL-6], Cxcl10, gamma interferon [IFN-γ], and Cxcl9) associated with IAOM at an early stage of infection. Overall, as the pathological changes in this mouse model were consistent with those in human IAOM, our model may be used to investigate the mechanism and treatment of IAOM. Furthermore, the data for transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis will be an important resource for dissecting the molecular pathogenesis of bone with IAOM.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is Gram-positive commensal bacteria that can also cause human disease ranging from mild, self-resolving skin infections to life-threatening conditions like endocarditis, osteomyelitis, and septicemia. Previously we demonstrated a role for the S. aureus sRNA, Teg41 in regulating production of the alpha Phenol Soluble Modulin toxins (αPSMs). In this study, we further characterize the regulatory role of Teg41. RNAseq analysis shows Teg41 influences the abundance of not just the αPSM transcript, but a variety of other transcripts as well compared to wild type S. aureus. Proteomic analysis confirms that eliminating Teg41 from the cell influences both the cytoplasmic and secreted protein profile of S. aureus. Finally, we observe that the Teg41Δ3′ strain is more severely attenuated in two murine infection models than a ∆αPSM strain, indicating that Teg41 regulation reaches beyond the αPSMs. Overall, we show that Teg41 is a unique pleiotropic sRNA in S. aureus that influences several key cellular processes.

Project description:BackgroundThe msaABCR operon regulates several staphylococcal phenotypes such as biofilm formation, capsule production, protease production, pigmentation, antibiotic resistance, and persister cells formation. The msaABCR operon is required for maintaining the cell wall integrity via affecting peptidoglycan cross-linking. The msaABCR operon also plays a role in oxidative stress defense mechanism, which is required to facilitate persistent and recurrent staphylococcal infections. Staphylococcus aureus is the most frequent cause of chronic implant-associated osteomyelitis (OM). The CA-MRSA USA300 strains are predominant in the United States and cause severe infections, including bone and joint infections.ResultsThe USA300 LAC strain caused significant bone damage, as evidenced by the presence of severe bone necrosis with multiple foci of sequestra and large numbers of multinucleated osteoclasts. Intraosseous survival and biofilm formation on the K-wires by USA300 LAC strains was pronounced. However, the msaABCR deletion mutant was attenuated. We observed minimal bone necrosis, with no evidence of intramedullary abscess and/or fibrosis, along reduced intraosseous bacterial population and significantly less biofilm formation on the K-wires by the msaABCR mutant. microCT analysis of infected bone showed significant bone loss and damage in the USA300 LAC and complemented strain, whereas the msaABCR mutant's effect was reduced. In addition, we observed increased osteoblasts response and new bone formation around the K-wires in the bone infected by the msaABCR mutant. Whole-cell proteomics analysis of msaABCR mutant cells showed significant downregulation of proteins, cell adhesion factors, and virulence factors that interact with osteoblasts and are associated with chronic OM caused by S. aureus.ConclusionThis study showed that deletion of msaABCR operon in USA300 LAC strain lead to defective biofilm in K-wire implants, decreased intraosseous survival, and reduced cortical bone destruction. Thus, msaABCR plays a role in implant-associated chronic osteomyelitis by regulating extracellular proteases, cell adhesions factors and virulence factors. However additional studies are required to further define the contribution of msaABCR-regulated molecules in osteomyelitis pathogenesis.
