Project description:The emergence of triazole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus poses a significant threat to clinical antifungal therapy. This study investigated the impact of prolonged exposure to the agricultural triazole tebuconazole (TEB) on the susceptibility of A. fumigatus to clinical triazoles and explored associated resistance mechanisms. After 28 days of exposure, isolates exhibited substantial increases in minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs): up to 128-fold for itraconazole, 64-fold for posaconazole, and 16-fold for voriconazole. Resistance persisted even after TEB removal. Ergosterol levels remained stable, while efflux pump inhibition led to MIC reduction, confirming their role in resistance. Proteomic analysis identified 193 upregulated and 88 downregulated proteins, with distinct profiles between treated and untreated groups. These findings demonstrate that agricultural triazoles can induce stable, multidrug-resistant phenotypes in A. fumigatus, emphasizing the need for integrated surveillance of antifungal resistance across environmental and clinical settings.

Project description:Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the major challenges that humans are facing this century. Understanding the mechanisms behind the rise of AMR is crucial to tackle this global threat. Among the triggers of phenotypic antimicrobial resistance, the contribution of transition metals has been understudied in Mycobacterium abscessus (Mabs), a fast-growing non-tuberculous mycobacterium known for its extreme AMR levels. Deeper understanding of the effects of transition metal ions will be beneficial for our knowledge in AMR and the discovery of potential therapeutic targets. Here, we investigated the impact of transition metal ions, nickel, cobalt and copper on the physiology and drug susceptibility of Mabs.

Project description:Incomplete antibiotic removal in pharmaceutical wastewater treatment plants (PWWTPs) could lead to the development and spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARBs) and genes (ARGs) in the environment, posing a growing public health threat. In this study, two multiantibiotic-resistant bacteria, Ochrobactrum intermedium (N1) and Stenotrophomonas acidaminiphila (N2), were isolated from the sludge of a PWWTP in Guangzhou, China. The N1 strain was highly resistant to ampicillin, cefazolin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, and norfloxacin, while the N2 strain exhibited high resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, and cefazolin. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that N1 and N2 had genome sizes of 0.52 Mb and 0.37 Mb, respectively, and harbored 33 and 24 ARGs, respectively. The main resistance mechanism in the identified ARGs included efflux pumps, enzymatic degradation, and target bypass, with the N1 strain possessing more multidrug-resistant efflux pumps than the N2 strain (22 vs 12). This also accounts for the broader resistance spectrum of N1 than of N2 in antimicrobial susceptibility tests. Additionally, both genomes contain numerous mobile genetic elements (89 and 21 genes, respectively) and virulence factors (276 and 250 factors, respectively), suggesting their potential for horizontal transfer and pathogenicity. Overall, this research provides insights into the potential risks posed by ARBs in pharmaceutical wastewater and emphasizes the need for further studies on their impact and mitigation strategies.

Project description:The rapid spread of antimicrobial resistance poses a critical threat to global health and the environment. Antimicrobial nanomaterials, including silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), are being explored as innovative solutions; however, the emergence of nanoresistance challenges their effectiveness. Understanding resistance mechanisms is essential for developing antievolutionary strategies. AgNPs exhibit diverse resistance mechanisms, and our findings reveal a dynamic transition between these mechanisms: from flagellin-mediated AgNP precipitation (state I) to activation of the copper efflux pump (CusCFBA) system (state II). We designed targeted physicochemical interventions to counteract these mechanisms. Energy supply blocking was effective for state I, while for state II, neutralizing intracellular acidic pH significantly reduced resistance. These strategies reduced nanoresistance/tolerance by up to 10,000-fold. Additionally, resistance evolution can be completely halted by disrupting the energy supply using carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone and overactivating sigma E, one of the key envelope stress regulators that govern resistance transitions. Our findings provide practical strategies to overcome nanoresistance, offering a groundbreaking approach to enhance nanoantimicrobials’ efficacy in medical therapies and combat resistance evolution.

Project description:Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been an increasingly serious threat to global public health. The contribution of non-antibiotic pharmaceuticals to the development of antibiotic resistance has been overlooked.Proteomic analysis was used to explore the underlying mechanism of AMR caused by non-antibiotics.

Project description:Antibiotic resistance is a growing global health threat. Most research has focused on understanding how mobile genetic elements are acquired by pathogenic bacteria. However, bacteria have intrinsic chromosomally encoded systems to protect themselves against antimicrobial assault. Our lab has uncovered such a system in uropathogenic E. coli. PmrAB and QseBC are connected two component systems that confer resistance to polymyxins, a last resort antibiotic. The histidine kinase PmrB responds to ferric iron and activates its cognate response regulator PmrA, as well as the non-cognate response regulator QseB. QseC, the other histidine kinase plays an important role in resetting the system. To better understand how PmrAB and QseBC mediate polymyxin resistance, this project aimed to elucidate the regulon of the two response regulators QseB and PmrA in the uropathogenic E. coli strain UTI89. In this strain, isogenic mutants were made lacking qseB and pmrA singly and together. These strains and wild-type UTI89 were stimulated with ferric iron and samples for RNA sequencing were taken prior to stimulation and at 15 and 60 minutes post stimulation. Samples were then sent for sequencing on the Illumina platform and analyzed using Rockhopper software.

Project description:Candida auris, listed as the “urgent antimicrobial resistance threat” by the CDC in 2023, is an emerging human fungal pathogen. It has resulted in several outbreaks in hospitals and other healthcare facilities which are associated with high mortality rates, ranging from 30 to 60% due to its extensive multidrug resistance to all three classes of antifungal agents (azoles, polyenes, and echinocandins). However, there is limited evidence on its virulence, pathogenicity determinants, and complex host-pathogen interactions4. Understanding the pathogenic mechanism is an important step toward rapidly addressing the new threats posed by C. auris. Here we performed a global transcriptomic analyses in the context of 32 stress conditions to explore the stress-response of C. auris. C. albicans was used for comparison.
