Project description:The opportunistic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major nosocomial pathogen causing both devastating acute and chronic persistent infections. During the course of an infection, P. aeruginosa rapidly adapts to the specific conditions within the host. In the present study, we aimed at the identification of genes that are highly expressed during biofilm infections such as in chronically infected lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), burn wounds and subcutaneous mouse tumours. We found a common subset of differentially regulated genes in all three in vivo habitats and evaluated whether their inactivation impacts on the bacterial capability to form biofilms in vitro and to establish biofilm-associated infections in a murine model. Additive effects on biofilm formation and host colonization were discovered by the combined inactivation of several highly expressed genes. However, even combined inactivation was not sufficient to abolish the establishment of an infection completely. These findings can be interpreted as evidence that either redundant traits encode functions that are essential for in vivo survival and chronic biofilm infections and/or bacterial adaptation is considerably achieved independently of transcription levels. Supplemental screens, will have to be applied in order to identify the minimal set of key genes essential for the establishment of chronic infectious diseases. Ex-vivo samples were collected from burn wound, cystic fibrosis patients mucous and mice tumor and stabilized for the RNA extraction. Recovered clinical strains were cultivated in rich medium control conditions untill the early stationary phase and RNA was extracted. The murine tumors were infected with burn wound isolated strains

Project description:The management of antibiotic-resistant, bacterial biofilm infections in chronic skin wounds is a significant clinical challenge. Despite advances in diagnosis, many patients do not derive benefit from current anti-infective/antibiotic therapies. Here we report a novel class of epoxy-tiglianes and demonstrate their antimicrobial activity (modifying bacterial growth and inducing biofilm disruption), with structure/activity relationships established against important human pathogens. In vitro, the lead candidate, EBC-1013 stimulated PKC-dependent neutrophil ROS induction and NETosis, and increased expression of wound healing associated cytokines, chemokines and antimicrobial peptides in keratinocytes and fibroblasts. In vivo, topical EBC-1013 induced rapid resolution of infection with increased matrix remodelling in acute thermal injuries. In chronically-infected, diabetic wounds, treatment induced cytokine/chemokine production, inflammatory cell recruitment and complete healing (in 6/7 wounds) with ordered keratinocyte differentiation. These results highlight a non-antibiotic approach involving contrasting, orthogonal mechanisms of action: targeted biofilm disruption and innate immune induction in the treatment of chronic wounds.

Project description:Wound healing is impaired by infection; however, how microbe-induced inflammation modulates tissue repair remains unclear. We took advantage of the optical transparency of zebrafish and a genetically tractable microbe, Listeria monocytogenes, to probe the role of infection and inflammation in wound healing. We found a critical window of microbial clearance necessary to limit persistent inflammation and enable efficient wound repair. Infection with bacteria engineered to activate the inflammasome, Lm-Pyro, induced persistent inflammation and impaired healing despite low bacterial burden. In contrast, infection with an anti-inflammatory, apoptosis inducing strain, Lm-Apo, had similar infectious burden but was associated with rapid wound repair. Inflammatory infections induced il-1b expression and blocking IL-1R signaling partially rescued wound healing in the presence of persistent infection. Taken together, our findings suggest that the dynamics of microbe-induced tissue inflammation impacts repair in complex tissue damage independent of bacterial load, with a critical early window for efficient tissue repair.

Project description:Bacterial genotoxins, produced by several Gram-negative bacteria, induce DNA damage in the target cells. While the responses induced in the host cells have been extensively studied in vitro, the role of the genotoxins as effectors during the course of acute and chronic infections remains poorly characterized.To address this issue, we assessed the effects of the Salmonella enterica genotoxin, known as typhoid toxin, in in vivo models of murine chronic infections. Immunocompetent mice were chronically infected with isogenic S. enterica, serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) strains, encoding either a functional (MC71-TT) or an inactive (MC71-DcdtB) typhoid toxin. Keywords: salmonella typhimurium, bacterial genotoxins, typhoid toxin, chronic infection, mice model
