Project description:Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections result in more than 200,000 hospitalizations and 10,000 deaths in the United States each year and remain an important medical challenge. To better understand the transcriptome of Staphylococcus aureus USA300 NRS384, a community-acquired MRSA strain, we have conducted an RNA-Seq experiment on WT samples.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus can cause a broad spectrum of diseases that vary widely in clinical presentation and disease severity[121]. Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains first described in the 1960’s[122] were hospital acquired (HA MRSA), however in the 1990’s, community-associated MRSA strains (CA MRSA) were identified and are considered to be more virulent[16]. Therapeutics and management of MRSA focuses on novel antibacterials and vaccines targeting virulence factors. To date no clinical trials for vaccines have succeeded[123] due to the poor understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms exhibited by S.aureus.We investigated the differential gene expression of four clinical MRSA strains in vitro, belonging to HA and CA MRSA, at the stationary and exponential growth phases, using RNA-seq on the Ion torrent next generation sequencing platform. This study reveals the high diversity of virulence trait expression among MRSA strains within strains as well as between different growth phases, and also suggests potential factors other than PVL that contributes to enhanced virulence in CA MRSA

Project description:Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections result in more than 200,000 hospitalizations and 10,000 deaths in the United States each year and remain an important medical challenge. A key factor of S. aureus pathogenesis is the production of virulence proteins that are secreted into the extracellular matrix damaging host tissues and forming abscesses that may serve as replicative niches for the bacteria. We recently discovered that host-derived cis-unsaturated fatty acids activate the transcription and translation of EsxA, a protein that plays a central role in abscess formation in clinically relevant MRSA strains. Additionally, we discovered that fatty acid stimulation of EsxA is dependent on fakA, a gene that encodes a protein responsible for the incorporation of exogenous fatty acids into the S. aureus phospholipid membrane. In order to gain a comprehensive understanding of host-fatty-acid-sensing in S. aureus, we performed RNA-Seq analysis on WT Staphylococcus aureus USA300 NRS384, a community-acquired MRSA strain, in the presence and absence of 10μM linoleic acid.

Project description:Resistant isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) often cause infections with high rates of mortality. Antimicrobial peptides are source of molecules for new antimi-crobials development, such as melittin, a fraction of venom from Apis mellifera bee. The aims of this work were to evaluate antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of melittin and its association with oxa-cillin (meltoxa) on MRSA isolates and to investigate mechanisms of action on MRSA by using proteomic analysis.

Project description:Panton-valentine leukocidin (PVL) has been linked to worldwide emergence of community-associated methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) -- its role in virulence in unclear. Here we show that PVL had no effect on global gene expression of prominent CA-MRSA strains nor did it affect bacterial clearance from lungs, spleen and kidneys in a highly discriminatory rabbit bacteremia model. These findings negate a large body of epidemiological research that implicated PVL in CA-MRSA virulence. Keywords: mutant vs wild type in 2 different growth phases grown in 2 different medias

Project description:Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major threat to human health. Rather than depend on creating new antibiotics (to which bacteria will eventually become resistant), we are employing antibiotic adjuvants that potentiation existing antibiotics. To gain biological insight into how lead compounds potentiate antibiotics and inhibit biofilms, we used RNA-seq on treated MRSA USA300 cultures to examine antibiotic adjuvant affects transcritome-wide.

Project description:The success of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) as pathogens is due to a combination of antibiotic resistance with high virulence. However, evolution of the exceptional virulence potential of CA-MRSA is not understood. Our previous study indicated that differential gene expression contributes substantially to this process. Thus, we here investigated the role of the pivotal virulence gene regulatory system agr in the most prevalent CA-MRSA strain USA300. Using a mouse subcutaneous infection model, we show that agr is essential for the development of CA-MRSA skin infections, the most frequent manifestation of disease caused by CA-MRSA. Furthermore, genome-wide analysis of gene expression revealed significant differences in agr-dependent virulence gene regulation between CA-MRSA, HA-MRSA, and laboratory strains. Our findings demonstrate that agr functionality is critical for CA-MRSA disease and indicate that an adaptation of the agr regulon to optimize expression of a broad set of virulence determinants may have contributed to the evolution of exceptionally pronounced virulence of CA-MRSA strains.

Project description:Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is one of the major causative agents associated to infections with a high morbidity and mortality in hospitals worldwide. In previous studies, we reported that lignan 3'-demethoxy-6-O-demethylisoguaiacin isolated and characterized from Larrea tridentata showed the best activity towards methicillin-resistant S. aureus. Understanding of mechanism of action of drugs allows design drugs in a better way. Therefore, we employed microarray to obtain gene expression profile of methicillin-resistant S. aureus after exposure to 3'-demethoxy-6-O-demethylisoguaiacin. The results showed that lignan had an effect on cell membrane affecting proteins of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transport system causing bacteria death. This study consisted of comparison of isolated RNA of MRSA not treated and MRSA treated with lignan 3'-demethoxy-6-O-demethylisoguaiacin. Both RNAs samples were differentially dyed with Cy3 and Cy5 during cDNA synthesis and hybridized on DNA chip. Afterwards, the chip was scanned in a GenePix 4000B scanner. The resulting gene expression profile was analyzed in databases for functional annotations to find a potential mechanism of the lignan in MRSA.

Project description:Neutrophil lysis after phagocytosis is a process potentially important in the pathogenesis of community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) infection. The mechanism for this process is not currently known. Therefore, to better understand CA-MRSA virulence we used human oligonucleotide microarrays to investigate the mechanism underlying enhanced PMN lysis that occurs after phagocytosis of CA-MRSA. In order to examine the effect of S. aureus on the neutrophil transcriptome and to elucidate any possible differences in this effect between hospital- and community-associated S. aureus, we performed microarray expression analysis on human neutrophils treated with hospital- and community-associated S. aureus.
