Project description:Cefiderocol (CFDC) is a novel chlorocatechol-substituted siderophore approved to treat complicated urinary tract infections and for hospital-acquired and ventilator-acquired pneumonia. In previous work, human fluids, were shown to increase the minimum inhibitory concentration (MICs) of Acinetobacter baumannii against CFDC and reduce the expression of genes related to iron uptake systems, which could explain the need for higher concentrations of CFDC to exert inhibitory action. Herein, we analyzed the impact of human urine (HU), which contains low albumin concentrations, on the expression of iron-uptake related genes and MIC values of two carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii. Levels of resistance to CFDC were not modified by HU in strain AMA40 but were reduced in the case of strain AB5075. Testing other carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii isolates showed that the CFDC MICs were unmodified or reduced in the presence of HU. The expression of piuA, pirA, bauA, and bfnH determined by qRT-PCR was enhanced in both strains when HU was present in the culture medium. All four tested genes are involved in recognizing ferric siderophore complexes or internalization into the cell’s cytosol. In contrast, the effect of HU on genes associated with resistance to β-lactams, antibiotics commonly used to treat urinary tract infections caused by A. baumannii, was variable; the transcriptional analysis of pbp1, pbp3, blaOXA-51-like, blaADC, and blaNDM-1 showed significant variation. In summary, HU, probably due to the albumin and free iron content, does not adversely impact or slightly improves the activity of CFDC when tested against A. baumannii in urine in contrast to other human bodily fluids.

Project description:The goal of this Tn-Seq study was to determine important determinants of Acinetobacter baumannii tolerance of sub-MIC concentrations of benzalkonium chloride. This Tn-seq data was then utilized to aide in the determination of the sub-MIC mechanism of action for benzalkonium chloride.

Project description:Objectives: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) are one of the most difficult pathogen to treat. The only drug recently approved by the FDA that is active against CRAB is cefiderocol. However, recent studies have shown higher all-cause mortality rate in the group of patients treated with cefiderocol, that may be due to heteroresistance, a phenotype characterized by the survival of a small proportion of cells in a population seemingly isogenic. Previous studies showed that adding human fluids to CRAB cultures can lead to CFDC heteroresistance. To better understand the nature of this phenomenon, we carried out molecular and phenotypic analyses of CRAB heteroresistant bacterial subpopulations. Methods: The CRAB strain AMA40 was cultured in the presence of cefiderocol and human pleural fluid (HPF) to isolate heteroresistant variants. Two of them, AMA40 IHC_1 and IHC_2, were subjected to whole genome sequencing and transcriptomic analysis to identify the mutations and transcriptomic changes responsible for the development of cefiderocol resistance. The impact of mutations on the pharmacodynamic activity of cefiderocol was assessed by susceptibility testing, EDTA and Boronic acid inhibition analysis, biofilm formation, and static time-kill assays. Results: Variants AMA40 IHC_1 and IHC_2 had 53 mutations, forty of which were common to both heteroresistant strains. None of the mutations are located inside genes associated with iron-uptake systems or β-lactam resistance. However, pipA, a gene associated with iron homeostasis in other species, was mutated in heteroresistant strains. Transcriptomic analyses revealed modifications in levels of expression of genes associated with antibiotic resistance. The blaNDM-1, blaADC-2, pbp3, and pbp1 were expressed at higher levels. At the same time, the carO and ompA genes’ expression was reduced. Collateral resistance to amikacin was observed in the heteroresistant variants. Static time-kill assays showed that when CA-MHB was supplemented with human serum albumin, the main protein component of HPF, cefiderocol killing activity was considerably reduced in all three strains. Conclusions: We conclude that heteroresistance to cefiderocol in CRAB, when exposed to fluids containing high HSA, is caused by mutations and modifications in the expression of genes associated with resistance to β-lactams.

Project description:Myriocin exhibited very low MIC values (0.016 to 0.4 mg/L) to all C. auris isolates including several multidrug-resistant strains. The yeast-form, filamentous, or aggregating-form cells were all susceptible to the chemical. The antifungal effect was majorly due to the fungistatic activity, although an extended treatment could lead to the fungicidal activity to C. auris cells. Transcriptomic analysis demonstrates that myriocin suppresses the cellular metabolic activity and induces the expression of stress or antifungal response genes.

Project description:Acinetobacter baumannii is often highly resistant to multiple antimicrobials, posing a risk of treatment failure, and colistin is a "last resort" for treatment of the bacterial infection. However, colistin resistance is easily developed when the bacteria are exposed to the drug, and a comprehensive analysis of colistin-mediated changes in colistin-susceptible and -resistant A. baumannii is needed. In this study, using an isogenic pair of colistin-susceptible and -resistant A. baumannii isolates, alterations in morphologic and transcriptomic characteristics associated with colistin resistance were revealed. Whole-genome sequencing showed that the resistant isolate harbored a PmrBL208F mutation conferring colistin resistance, and all other single-nucleotide alterations were located in intergenic regions. Using scanning electron microscopy, it was determined that the colistin-resistant mutant had a shorter cell length than the parental isolate, and filamented cells were found when both isolates were exposed to the inhibitory concentration of colistin. When the isolates were treated with inhibitory concentrations of colistin, more than 80% of the genes were upregulated, including genes associated with antioxidative stress response pathways. The results elucidate the morphological difference between the colistin-susceptible and -resistant isolates and different colistin-mediated responses in A. baumannii isolates depending on their susceptibility to this drug.

Project description:In past, resistance mechanisms have been identified by analysis of resistant isolates or defined mutants. Recently, high-throughput transposon mutagenesis coupled with sequencing (TraDIS-Xpress) is another approach proving useful for elucidating the roles of genes involved in the overall cellular response to a particular stress. In this study, we used TraDIS-Xpress to determine the role played by genes following exposure to colistin stress. Approximately 10^7 cells from the mutant library were inoculated into LB broth at a range of doubling concentrations of colistin ( 0.25 x MIC, 0.5 x MIC, 1 x MIC, 2 X MIC). Experiments were performed with no induction, or with induction using 0.2 or 1 mM of Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG). All experiments were performed in duplicate.
