In vitro and in vivo preclinical characterization of a preconceptionally administered maternal vaccine against severe neonatal Escherichia coli K1 infections

ABSTRACT: Preterm birth is currently the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Genetic, immunological and infectious causes are suspected. Preterm infants have a higher risk of severe bacterial neonatal infections, most of which are caused by Escherichia coli an in particular E. coli K1strains. Women with history of preterm delivery have a high risk of recurrence and therefore constitute a target population for the development of vaccine against E. coli neonatal infections. Here, we characterized the immunological, microbiological and protective properties of a live attenuated vaccine candidate in adult female mice and their pups against after a challenge by K1 and non-K1 strains of E. coli. Our results show that the E. coli K1 E11 aroA vaccine induces strong immunity, driven by polyclonal bactericidal antibodies. In our model of meningitis, pups born to mothers immunized before mating were well protected against various K1 and non-K1 strains of E. coli. Given the very high mortality rate and the neurological sequalae associated with neonatal E. coli K1 meningitis, our results constitute preclinical proof of concept for the development of a live attenuated vaccine against severe E. coli infections in women at risk of preterm delivery.

Nanostring analysis of neonatal brains following bacterial infection

Project description:Neonatal meningitis and neurocomplications are often a complication of neonatal bacterial bloodstream infections. As distinct bacterial organisms may cause different disease outcomes, we assessed two separate bacterial infections: E. coli and S. agalactiae (GBS). In this study we assessed differences in immune response within the brain tissue of neonates and the effect of gamma delta T cells to the brain during bacterial infection. As gamma delta T cells are resident to tissues, and can contribute to bacterial infections, we compared wild-type and TCRdKO mice, which lack gamma delta T cells, in two infections models: E. coli and GBS.

Proteomics of Human Cervical Mucus Plugs

Project description:Preterm birth is a leading cause of neonatal mortality and lacks an effective therapy. Ascending microbial infections from the lower genital tract lead to infection of the placenta, amniotic fluid and fetus causing preterm birth or stillbirth. Directly in the path of an ascending infection is the cervical mucus plug (CMP), a dense mucoid structure in the cervical canal with potential antimicrobial properties. In this study, we aimed to define the components of CMP responsible for antimicrobial activity against a common lower genital tract organism associated with preterm birth and stillbirths, namely Group B Streptococcus (GBS). Using a quantitative proteomic approach, we identified antimicrobial factors in CMPs that were collected from healthy human pregnancies. This study aims to provide new insight into how the human CMP may limit ascending bacterial infection.

RNA-sequencing of neonatal monocyte responses to E. coli and S. epidermidis

Project description:Newborns, particularly those born prematurely, are extremely vulnerable to sepsis and this has been attributed to ‘immature’ innate monocyte defences. Predominant pathogens include Escherichia. coli and Staphylococcus. epidermidis but no studies have assessed global transcriptional responses of neonatal monocytes to live sepsis-causing bacteria. Here, we aimed to identify and characterise the common and pathogen-specific, neonatal monocyte transcriptional responses to E. coli and S. epidermidis to better understand early life innate immune responses. RNA-sequencing was performed on purified cord blood monocytes from very preterm (<32 weeks gestational age, GA) and term infants (37-40 weeks GA) following standardised challenge with live S. epidermidis or E. coli.

Affymetrix analysis of adult mouse lung exposed to room air or 100% oxygen between postnatal days 0-4

Project description:It is unclear why preterm birth increases risk of cardiovascular disease later in life. Studies in mice indicate excess oxygen used to treat preterm infants causes pulmonary hypertension, cardiac failure, and shortens lifespan. We previously reported neonatal hyperoxia causes pulmonary hypertension in aged mice as defined pathologically by pulmonary capillary rarefaction, dilation of pulmonary arterioles and veins, right ventricular hypertrophy, and reduced lifespan. Here, affymetrix gene arrays were used to identify early transcriptional changes in lungs of young adult mice exposed to room air or 100% oxygen between postnatal days 0-4.

Lung transcriptional unresponsiveness and loss of early influenza virus control in infected neonates is prevented by intranasal Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG

Project description:Respiratory viral infections contribute substantially to global infant losses and disproportionately affect preterm neonates. Using our previously established neonatal murine model of influenza infection, we demonstrate that three-day old mice are exceptionally sensitive to influenza virus infection and exhibit high mortality and viral load. Intranasal pre- and post-treatment of neonatal mice with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG), an immune modulator in respiratory viral infection of adult mice and human preterm neonates, considerably improves neonatal mice survival after influenza virus infection. We determine that both live and heat-killed intranasal LGG are equally efficacious in protection of neonates. Early in influenza infection, neonatal transcriptional responses in the lung are delayed compared to adults. These responses increase by 24 hours post-infection, demonstrating a delay in the kinetics of the neonatal anti-viral response. LGG pretreatment improves immune gene transcriptional responses during early infection and specifically upregulates type I IFN pathways.

Plasma proteomic analysis to identify potential biomarkers of histologic chorioamnionitis in women with preterm premature rupture of membranes

Project description:Preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), which precedes approximately 30–40% of preterm births, is the main cause of neonatal morbidity, mortality, and long-term sequelae. In particular, almost half of all PPRPM cases are frequently complicated by subclinical acute inflammation in the placenta and fetal tissue, commonly named as acute histologic chorioamnionitis [HCA]. Increasing evidences suggest that HCA carries additional risks to both the pregnant women and their fetuses, including greater risk of imminent preterm birth, as well as sepsis, neurologic morbidity, and mortality in neonates. More accurate and early prenatal predictive markers (especially noninvasive ones) are urgently needed for identifying subclinical HCA in the context of PPROM.To identify potential biomarkers in the plasma that could predict histologic chorioamnionitis (HCA) in women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), using shotgun and targeted proteomic analyses.
