Staphylococcal Enterotoxins Enhance Biofilm Formation by <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> in Platelet Concentrates.

Project description:Biofilm formation and slow growth by Staphylococcus aureus in platelet concentrates (PCs) cause missed detection of this bacterium during routine PC screening with automated culture systems. This heightens the chances of false-negative screening transfusions and pre-disposes transfusion patients to an elevated risk of sepsis due to secretion of staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) in PCs. A hybrid approach of comparative RNAseq analyses and CRISPR mutagenesis of SE genes was employed to investigate the effect of SEs in S. aureus growth and biofilm formation in PCs. RNAseq data showed no differential expression for key biofilm genes, whereas SE genes were upregulated (>0.5- to 3.6-fold change) in PCs compared to trypticase soy broth (TSB). Remarkably, growth and biofilm formation assays revealed increased growth for the S. aureus SE mutants, while their ability to form biofilms was significantly impaired (−6.8- to −2.4-fold change) in comparison to the wild type strain, in both PCs and TSB. Through the well-established superantigen mechanism of SEs, we propose three roles for SEs during biofilm development in PCs: (1) provide a scaffold for biofilm matrix, (2) mediate cell-to-cell aggregation, and (3) guarantee biofilm survival. Furthermore, SE contribution to both growth and biofilm development seems to be centrally regulated by agr via quorum sensing and by saeSR and sigB. This study reveals new roles for SEs, which enforce their relevance in ensuring PC safety for transfusion patients. It further deciphers the underlying reasons for failed S. aureus detection in PCs during screening with automated culture systems.

Modulation of Staphylococcus aureus gene expression during proliferation in platelet concentrates with focus on virulence and platelet functionality.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is a well-documented bacterial contaminant in platelet concentrates (PCs), a blood component used to treat patients with platelet deficiencies. This bacterium can evade routine PC culture screening and cause septic transfusion reactions. Here, we investigated the gene expression modulation within the PC niche versus trypticase soy media (TSB) of S. aureus CBS2016-05, a strain isolated from a septic reaction, in comparison to PS/BAC/317/16/W, a strain identified during PC screening. RNA-seq analysis revealed upregulation of the capsule biosynthesis operon (capA-H), surface adhesion factors (sasADF), clumping factor A (clfA), protein A (spa), and anaerobic metabolism genes (pflAB, nrdDG) in CBS2016-05 when grown in PCs versus TSB, implying its enhanced pathogenicity in this milieu, in contrast to the PS/BAC/317/16/W strain. Furthermore, we investigated the impact of S. aureus CBS2016-05 on platelet functionality in spiked PCs versus non-spiked PC units. Flow cytometry analyses revealed a significant decrease in glycoprotein (GP) IIb (CD41) and GPIbα (CD42b) expression, alongside increased P-selectin (CD62P) and phosphatidylserine (annexin V) expression in spiked PCs compared to non-spiked PCs (p = 0.01). Moreover, spiked PCs exhibited a drastic reduction in MitoTrack Red FM and Calcein AM positive platelets (87.3% vs. 29.4%, p = 0.0001 and 95.4% vs. 24.7%, p = 0.0001) in a bacterial cell density manner. These results indicated that S. aureus CBS2016-05 triggers platelet activation and apoptosis, and compromises mitochondrial functionality and platelet viability, in contaminated PCs. Furthermore, this study enhanced our understanding of the effects of platelet-bacteria interactions in the unique PC niche, highlighting S. aureus increased pathogenicity and deleterious effect on platelet functionality in a strain specific manner. Our novel insights serve as a platform to improve PC transfusion safety.

Comparative genome analyses of Staphylococcus aureus from platelet concentrates reveal rearrangements involving loss of type VII secretion genes.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus has been involved in transfusion-transmitted fatalities associated with platelet concentrates (PCs) due to its heightened pathogenicity enhanced by genome-encoded virulence and antibiotic resistance genes. This may be facilitated by mobile genetic elements (MGEs) that can cause rearrangements. Several factors contribute to S. aureus virulence, including the type VII secretion system (T7SS), composed of six core genes conserved across S. aureus strains. In this study, we conducted comparative genome analyses of five S. aureus isolates from PCs (CI/BAC/25/13 /W, PS/BAC/169/17 /W and PS/BAC/317/16 /W were detected during PCs screening with the BACT/ALERT automated culture system, and ATR-20003 and CBS2016-05 were missed during screening and caused septic transfusion reactions). Multiple alignments of the genomes revealed evidence of rearrangements involving phage Sa3int in PS/BAC/169/17 /W and PS/BAC/317/16 /W. While the former had undergone translocation of its immune evasion cluster (IEC), the latter had lost part of the phage, leaving behind the IEC. This observation highlights S. aureus genome plasticity. Unexpectedly, strain CBS2016-05 was found to encode a pseudo-type VII secretion system (T7SS) that had lost five of the conserved core genes (esxA, esaA, essA, esaB and essB) and contained a 5' truncated essC. Since these genes are essential for the function of the T7SS protein transport machinery, which plays a key role in S. aureus virulence, CBS2016-05 probably compensates by recruiting other export mechanisms and/or alternative virulence factors, such as neu-tralizing immunity proteins. This study unravels genome rearrangements in S. aureus isolated from PCs and reports the first S. aureus isolate lacking conserved T7SS core genes.

Comparative transcriptional analysis of Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm matrix variants in human platelet concentrates

Project description:This study is focused on understanding the molecular basis of protein- and polysaccharide intercellular adhesin (PIA)- mediated biofilm formation by S. epidermidis in PCs. Comparative transcriptomic analysis of S. epidermidis PIA- biofilm positive (AZ22, AZ39) and PIA+ biofilm positive (ST02) strains was performed using a RNAseq approach. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed cellular component GO term (AZ22), two KEGG pathways (AZ39), and two molecular function GO term and 8 KEGG pathways (ST02) were enriched. Remarkably, glutamate biosynthesis and tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) genes were upregulated in AZ22 and AZ39, respectively whereas arginine deiminase (ADI) pathway genes were downregulated in ST02. Moreover, genes conferring resistance against antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and antibiotics such as lysostaphin, fusidic acid and tetracycline were upregulated, thus implying their increased resistance in S. epidermidis grown in PCs. Notably, expression of genes conferring resistance against aminoglycoside (in AZ22) and methicillin (in AZ39 and ST02) were downregulated. This study provided an overview, how biofilm-mediated virulence, antibiotic resistance and metabolic pathways are interlinked and reprogrammed during biofilm maturation in PCs which will be intriguing in development of novel preventive strategies against S. epidermidis transfusion-transmitted infections.

Platelet Concentrates in Musculoskeletal Medicine.

Project description:Platelet concentrates (PCs), mostly represented by platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) are autologous biological blood-derived products that may combine plasma/platelet-derived bioactive components, together with fibrin-forming protein able to create a natural three-dimensional scaffold. These types of products are safely used in clinical applications due to the autologous-derived source and the minimally invasive application procedure. In this narrative review, we focus on three main topics concerning the use of platelet concentrate for treating musculoskeletal conditions: (a) the different procedures to prepare PCs, (b) the composition of PCs that is related to the type of methodological procedure adopted and (c) the clinical application in musculoskeletal medicine, efficacy and main limits of the different studies.
