Dual RNA-sequencing of macrophages infected with Mycobacterium avium reveals host-pathogen interaction in the context of clarithromycin treatment

ABSTRACT: Background: Mycobacterium avium is an opportunistic pathogen that requires complex multidrug treatment. Macrolides, like clarithromycin, are the cornerstone of treatment, but even macrolide-based treatment regimens have suboptimal outcomes. Combining transcriptomic profiling of macrophages and mycobacteria in an in vitro infection model may increase our understanding of the host-pathogen interaction and the effect of antibiotic treatment. Methods: To investigate the molecular interplay between pathogen and host, we developed an optimized protocol for dual RNA-sequencing of human monocyte-derived macrophages infected with M. avium. Results: Upon phagocytosis, host defense processes including immune activation and pathogen recognition were upregulated, while M. avium upregulated expression of PE/PPE genes, which are important for immune recognition. Clarithromycin did not affect gene regulation of the host; the effect of clarithromycin on M. avium gene expression was very different in RPMI compared to intracellular mycobacteria, likely due to the influence of the host environment on expression of the important regulatory WhiB genes. Conclusions These data identify the distinct stress responses of M. avium upon infection and clarithromycin treatment and underline the importance of taking the intracellular localization and interaction with the host into account when studying antibiotics against intracellular pathogens.

An antibiofilm effect against Salmonella typhimurium rdar biofilm formation upon treatment with the macrolide clarithromycin

Project description:Upon biofilm formation, production of extracellular matrix components and alteration in physiology and metabolism allows bacteria to build up multicellular communities which can facilitate nutrient acquisition during unfavorable conditions and provide protection towards various forms of environmental stresses to individual cells. Thus, bacterial cells become tolerant against antimicrobials and the immune system within biofilms. In the current study, we evaluated the antibiofilm activity of the macrolides clarithromycin and azithromycin. Clarithromycin showed antibiofilm activity against rdar (red, dry and rough) biofilm formation of the gastrointestinal pathogen Salmonella typhimurium ATCC14028 Nalr at 1.56 µM subinhibitory concentration in standing culture and dissolved cell aggregates at 15 µM in a microaerophilic environment suggesting that the oxygen level affects the activity of the drug. Treatment with clarithromycin significantly decreased transcription and production of the rdar biofilm activator CsgD, with biofilm genes such as csgB and adrA to be consistently downregulated. While fliA and other flagellar regulon genes were upregulated, apparent motility was downregulated. RNA sequencing showed a holistic cell response upon clarithromycin exposure, whereby not only genes involved in the biofilm-related regulatory pathways, but also genes that likely contribute to intrinsic antimicrobial resistance, and the heat shock stress response were differentially regulated. Most significantly, clarithromycin exposure shifts the cells towards an apparent oxygen- and energy- depleted status, whereby the metabolism that channels into oxidative phosphorylation is downregulated, and energy gain by degradation of propane 1,2-diol, ethanolamine and L-arginine catabolism, potentially also to prevent cytosolic, is upregulated. This analysis will allow the subsequent identification of novel intrinsic antimicrobial resistance determinants.

The role of metabolic shifts and drug transporters in the response of M. avium to antibiotic stress

Project description:Background: Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) bacteria cause opportunistic infections in humans. Treatment yields cure rates of 60% and is comprised of a macrolide, a rifamycin and ethambutol; and in severe cases amikacin. Mechanisms of antibiotic tolerance remain mostly unknown. To elucidate these mechanisms, we studied the transcriptomic response to antibiotics and investigated the contribution of efflux and amikacin modification to susceptibility. Methods: M. avium was subjected to subinhibitory concentrations of clarithromycin, amikacin, ethambutol and rifampicin followed by RNA sequencing. Based thereupon, we characterized M. avium efflux pumps and performed time-kill kinetic analysis using each antibiotic in combination with the efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs) berberine, verapamil and CCCP to study the role of efflux on susceptibility. Finally, we studied the modification of amikacin by M. avium using metabolomic analysis. Results: Changes in respiratory state and changes in ribosome binding and protein folding likely contribute to clarithromycin and amikacin tolerance, respectively. No clear drug-specific mechanisms of tolerance are found for ethambutol and rifampicin. Of the EPIs, only berberine increased the susceptibility to rifampicin and clarithromycin. Finally, we show that M. avium, in contrast to M. abscessus, is not able to modify amikacin. Conclusion: M. avium likely relies on a combination of drug-specific and generic mechanisms of antibiotic tolerance including changes in respiratory and metabolic state in addition to drug efflux and target modification. Efflux inhibition can increase susceptibility but this effect is EPI and antibiotic specific. Finally, the lack of amikacin modifying activity in M. avium is important for its activity.

Differentially expressed genes in human macrophages infected with clinical isolates of Mycobacterium avium displaying phenotypically and genotypically distinct characteristics

Project description:Mycobacterium avium is a significant opportunistic intracellular pathogen in humans, pigs and birds. Human and porcine infection with M. avium is mainly due to M. avium subsp. hominissuis, whereas birds are typically infected with M. avium subsp. avium. Reasons for this distribution of subspecies between the hosts are uncertain, but they might be due to differences in exposure or to different abilities to infect the respective hosts. We wanted to assay how isolates of the two subspecies interact with a human host in a macrophage model to gain more knowledge on possible differences in virulence. This study compares clinical isolates of M. avium with regards to their ability to invade and replicate intracellularly in human monocytes/macrophages and to the gene expression triggered in these cells upon infection. Further focus in the description of protocols is limited to the parts of the study that regards the expression analysis.

Subcellular antibiotic visualization reveals a dynamic drug reservoir in infected macrophages

Project description:Tuberculosis, caused by the intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis, remains the world's deadliest infectious disease. Sterilizing chemotherapy requires at least 6 months of multidrug therapy. Difficulty visualizing the subcellular localization of antibiotics in infected host cells means that it is unclear whether antibiotics penetrate all mycobacteria-containing compartments in the cell. Here, we combined correlated light, electron, and ion microscopy to image the distribution of bedaquiline in infected human macrophages at submicrometer resolution. Bedaquiline accumulated primarily in host cell lipid droplets, but heterogeneously in mycobacteria within a variety of intracellular compartments. Furthermore, lipid droplets did not sequester antibiotic but constituted a transferable reservoir that enhanced antibacterial efficacy. Thus, strong lipid binding facilitated drug trafficking by host organelles to an intracellular target during antimicrobial treatment.

Experimental selection of long-term intracellular mycobacteria

Project description:Some intracellular bacteria are known to cause long-term infections for periods of time that last decades without compromising the viability of the host. Although of critical importance, the changes that intracellular bacteria suffer during this long process of residence in a host cell environment remain obscure. Here, we report an experimental approach to study the adaptations of intracellular mycobacteria forced by a long-term intracellular lifestyle. Long-term infection of host macrophages with mycobacteria was maintained for a period of years. Mycobacteria in the long-term infected macrophages underwent an adaptation process leading to impaired phenolic glycolipids (PGL) synthesis, preference for glucose as a carbon source and neutral lipids accumulation. These changes correlated with increased survival of mycobacteria in macrophages and mice during re-infection and specific expression of stress- and survival-related genes. Our findings identify bacterial traits implicated in the establishment of long-term cellular infections and represent a tool for understanding the physiological states of bacteria living in fluctuating intracellular environments.
