Project description:The establishment of bacterial infections at epithelial surfaces is determined by the balance of virulence attributes of the pathogen with the activity of innate host defenses. Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) are key responders in many bacterial infections, but the mechanisms by which pathogens subvert these early responses to establish infection are largely undefined. Here, we model these early interactions between human PMN and the primary cause of urinary tract infections, namely uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). Our objective was to define virulence phenotypes of uropathogens (as compared with laboratory and commensal E. coli strains) that permit evasion of PMN activity. We found that UPEC strains resist phagocytic killing and dampen the production of antimicrobial reactive oxygen species by PMNs. Analysis of the global transcriptional responses of PMN to E. coli strains revealed that UPEC exposure downregulates the expression of PMN genes involved in proinflammatory signaling and PMN chemotaxis, adhesion, and migration. Consistent with these data, UPEC attenuated transepithelial neutrophil recruitment in an in vitro model of acute infection. We propose that these UPEC strategies are important in the establishment of epithelial infection, and that the findings are germane to a range of bacterial infections at epithelial surfaces. We used microarrays to detail the global program of gene expression in human neutrophils in response to a uropathogenic bacteria compared to a closely related non-pathogenic strain relative to control samples with no bacteria. Our goal was to elucidate a pathogen-specific response. We chose an early time point of 60 minutes to evaluate the accute response to infection. Human neutrophils were exposed to pathogenic or commensal Escherichia coli for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays

Project description:Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a very common bacterial infectious disease in humans, and uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are the most frequent cause of UTIs. During infection, UPEC must cope with a variety of stressful conditions in the urinary tract. Here, we demonstrated that the small RNA (sRNA) RyfA of UPEC strains was required for resistance to oxidative and osmotic stresses. Inactivation of ryfA in UPEC strain CFT073 decreased urinary tract colonization in CBA/J mice and the ryfA mutant also had reduced production of type 1 and P fimbriae, which are known to be important for UTI. Transcriptomic analysis of the ryfA mutant showed changes in expression of genes associated with general stress responses, metabolism, biofilm formation and genes coding for cell surface proteins. Furthermore, loss of ryfA also reduced UPEC survival in human macrophages. Thus, ryfA plays a key regulatory role in UPEC adaptation to stress, that contributes to UTI and survival in macrophages.

Project description:Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the major causative agent of uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs). A common virulence genotype of UPEC strains responsible for UTIs is yet to be defined, due to the large variation of virulence factors observed in UPEC strains. We hypothesized that studying UPEC functional responses in patients might reveal universal UPEC features that enable pathogenesis. Here we identify a transcriptional program shared by genetically diverse UPEC strains isolated from 14 patients during uncomplicated UTIs. Strikingly, this in vivo gene expression program is marked by upregulation of translational machinery, providing a mechanism for the rapid growth within the host. Our analysis indicates that switching to a more specialized catabolism and scavenging lifestyle in the host allows for the increased translational output. Our study identifies a common transcriptional program underlying UTIs and illuminates the molecular underpinnings that likely facilitate the fast growth rate of UPEC in infected patients.

Project description:E. coli which cause urinary tract infections must respond to high osmolarity in the urinary tract as well as the presence of urea. We used microarrays to measure the differntial gene expression of uropathogenic strain CFT073 in conditions of high osmolarity of urea v. minimal media RNA was extracted from CFT073 in each growth condition and hybridized to an Affymetrix microarray. The differentially expressed genes were analyzed by expression pattern and function.

Project description:Urinary tract infections (UTIs) constitute a highly relevant model of microbial adaptation, in which the contrasting effects of pathogens and commensals on host tissues are clearly displayed. While virulent Escherichia coli cause severe, potentially life-threatening disease by breaking the inertia of the mucosal barrier and infecting the kidneys, the most common outcome of bacteriuria is an asymptomatic carrier state resembling commensalism at other mucosal sites. It remains unclear if the lack of destructive inflammation merely reflects low virulence or if carrier strains actively inhibit disease associated responses in the host. To address this question, we examined the effects of asymptomatic bacterial carriage on host gene expression. Therapeutic urinary tract inoculation with the prototype ABU strain E. coli 83972 is a safe alternative approach in patients with therapy-resistant recurrent UTI. The strain establishes persistent bacteriuria, protecting patients against super-infection with more virulent strains. Using this protocol, we examined if the establishment of asymptomatic bacterial carriage alters host gene expression.

To address this question, we examined the effects of asymptomatic bacterial carriage on host gene expression. A498 cell line has been validated as a model of uropathogenic E. coli infection; the cells express functional receptors for bacterial virulence ligands and the response to virulent strains reflects human UTI. The cells were infected with asymptomatic and pathogenic E. coli in vitro, and harvested RNA was subjected to whole genome transcriptome analysis.

Project description:Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a major clinical burden, often driven by the ability of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) to persist intracellularly within bladder epithelial cells, protected from antibiotics and host immune responses. While vaccine and antibiotic alternatives are being explored, strategies that enhance epithelial cell-intrinsic defense mechanisms remain sparse. Here, we show that OM-89 (Uro-Vaxom®), an E. coli lysate, reprograms epithelial antimicrobial responses to enhance intracellular bacterial clearance. Using murine bladder organoids and epithelial cell monolayers, we demonstrate that OM-89 enhances lysosomal acidification and cathepsin activity, promoting trafficking of UPEC into degradative compartments. Unexpectedly, OM-89 also increases epithelial uptake of antibiotics, increasing their intracellular potency and reducing UPEC regrowth after treatment. This dual effect, on epithelial immunity and antibiotic accessibility, was conserved across multiple UPEC strains and antibiotic classes. Our findings position bladder epithelial cells as active players in the host defense and highlight OM-89 as a tool to amplify their antimicrobial potential, offering a promising adjunctive strategy against intracellular bacterial persistence.
