Project description:In the present study, we employed Affymetrix Pseudomonas aeruginosa GeneChip arrays to investigate the dynamics of global gene expression profiles during the cellular response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ortho-phenylphenol, which involved initial growth inhibition and metabolism.

Project description:<p>Antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major clinical challenge due to limited drug uptake. This study shows that exogenous glutamate restores gentamicin efficacy by reprogramming bacterial metabolism to enhance membrane permeability. The effect is mediated through increased biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, which is further confirmed by oleic acid supplementation. These findings reveal a novel metabolic approach to overcome multidrug and carbapenem resistance, offering a promising adjunct strategy to improve antibiotic treatment outcomes.</p>
Project description:Gene expression profiles of two Pseudomonas aeruginosa taxonomic outlier clinical isolates, CLJ1 and CLJ3 [CLJ3] Pseudomonas aeruginosa taxonomic outliers emerged recently as infectious for humans, provoking hemorrhagic pneumonia. Those bacteria lack classical type III secretion system, and utilize the pore-forming toxin for infection. Two clones CLJ1 and CLJ3 belonging to these taxonomic outliers have been isolated from the same patient at two different times during hospitalization. P. aeruginosa CLJ3 displays antibiotic resistance phenotype, while CLJ1 is more cytotoxic on epithelial and endothelial cells.

Project description:To further determine the origin of the increased virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 compared to Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, we report a transcriptomic approach through RNA sequencing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutioned sistems-based analsis of transcriptomic pathways. The goals of this study are to compare the transcriptomic profile of all 5263 orthologous genes of these nearly two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
