Project description:A collection of 61 Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) of animal and human origin, matched as closely as possible by phage type, antimicrobial resistance pattern and place / time of isolation, and sourced from farms or hospitals in Scotland, were analysed by antimicrobial susceptibility testing, phage typing, pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), plasmid profiling and DNA microarrays. PFGE of all 61 isolates revealed ten PFGE profiles, which clustered by phage type and antibiotic resistance pattern, with human and animal isolates distributed between PFGE profiles. Analysis of 23 representative S. Typhimurium strains hybridised to a composite Salmonella DNA microarray identified a small number of specific regions of genome variation between different phage types and PFGE profiles. These variable regions of DNA were typically located within prophage-like elements. Simple PCR assays were subsequently designed to discriminate between different isolates from the same geographical region.

Project description:The emergence and spread of polymyxin resistance, especially among Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates threaten the effective management of infections. This study profiled for polymyxin resistance mechanisms and investigated the activity of polymyxins plus vancomycin against carbapenem- and polymyxin-resistant K. pneumoniae.

Project description:Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) definitive phage type 104 (DT104) has caused significant morbidity and mortality in humans and animals for almost three decades. We have completed the full DNA sequence of one DT104 strain, NCTC13348 and show that the main differences between the genome of this isolate and the previously sequenced S. Typhimurium LT2 lie in integrated prophage elements and the Salmonella Genomic Island 1 encoding antibiotic resistance genes. Thirteen isolates of S. Typhimurium DT104 with different pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) profiles were analyzed by multi locus sequence typing (MLST), plasmid profiling, hybridization to a Pan-Salmonella DNA microarray and prophage-based multiplex PCR. All the isolates belonged to a single MLST type ST19. Microarray data demonstrated that the 13 DT104 isolates were remarkably conserved in gene content. The PFGE band-size differences in these isolates could be explained to a great extent by changes in prophage and plasmid content. Thus, here the nature of variation in different S. Typhimurium DT104 isolates is further defined at the genome level illustrating how this phage type is evolving over time.

Project description:Antibiotic use can lead to expansion of multi-drug resistant pathobionts within the gut microbiome that can cause life-threatening infections. Selective alternatives to conventional antibiotics are in dire need. Here, we describe a Klebsiella PhageBank that enables the rapid design of antimicrobial bacteriophage cocktails to treat multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. Using a transposon library in carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae, we identified host factors required for phage infection in major Klebsiella phage families. Leveraging the diversity of the PhageBank and experimental evolution strategies, we formulated combinations of phages that minimize the occurrence of phage resistance in vitro. Optimized bacteriophage cocktails selectively suppressed the burden of multi-drug resistant K. pneumoniae in the mouse gut microbiome and drove bacterial populations to lose key virulence factors that act as phage receptors. Further, phage-mediated diversification of bacterial populations in the gut enabled co-evolution of phage variants with higher virulence and a broader host range. Altogether, the Klebsiella PhageBank represents a roadmap for both phage researchers and clinicians to enable phage therapy against a critical multidrug-resistant human pathogen.

Project description:The emergence and spread of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-KPN) infections have worsened the current situation worldwide. Clinically, cotrimoxazole (CTX) and amikacin (AMI) are considered to be the preferred drugs in the treatment of (CR-KPN). But for now, the extensive use of cotrimoxazole (CTX) and amikacin (AMI) During the course of treatment leads to the emergence of cotrimoxazole- and amikacin-resistant infections, which is of great clinical concern. Previous evidence has shown that bacteria with reduced metabolism tend to be resistant to antibiotics, however, the mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, proteomics was performed on the sensitive, cotrimoxazole-resistant, amikacin-resistant and cotrimoxazole/amikacin-both-resistant KPN clinical isolates, and 2266 proteins were identified in total by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) analysis. Further bioinformatic analysis showed down-regulation of tricarboxylic acid cycle pathway and up-regulation of alcohol metabolic or glutathione metabolism processes, which may contribute to ROS clearance and cell survival, in drug-resistant isolates. Finally, combined with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Amikacin and Cotrimoxazole on different KPN isolates, we identified nine proteins contributed mostly to such an alteration and the survival of bacteria under drug pressure, which could reveal novel mechanisms or pathways involved in drug resistance. These proteins and their pathways might be used as targets for the development of novel therapeutics against antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) infections.

Project description:Shotgun metagenomic sequencing of nasopharyngeal (NP) samples, from children enrolled in a PCV13-vaccinated South African birth cohort was used to explore strain-level pneumococcal colonization patterns and transmission dynamics, and associated antimicrobial-resistance determinants. NP swabs were collected at two-week intervals from birth through the first year of life from 137 infants. Pneumococcal isolates were serotyped and tested for phenotypic antimicrobial resistance. 196 NP samples from a subset of 23 infants were then selected based on changes in serotype or antimicrobial resistance. DNA was extracted directly from the enriched NP samples and shotgun metagenomic sequencing performed. Reads were assembled and aligned against reference pneumococcal genomes. in silico pneumococcal capsular, multilocus sequence typing, and resistome analyses were performed.
