Determination of Pseudomonas aeruginosa transcriptome induced by oleic acid or its derived oxylipins 10-HOME and 7,10-DiHOME.

ABSTRACT: Oxygenated unsaturated fatty acids, known as oxylipins, are signaling molecules commonly used for cell-to-cell communication in eukaryotes. However, a role for oxylipins in mediating communication in prokaryotes has not previously been described. Bacteria mainly communicate via quorum sensing (QS) , which involves the production and detection of diverse small molecules termed autoinducers. We showed that oleic acid-derived oxylipins 10-HOME and 7,10-DiHOME produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa function as autoinducers of a novel quorum sensing system termed Oxylipin-Dependent QS Sytem (ODS). This experiment was designed to determine the genes whose expression is altered by these P. aeruginosa oxylipins. We found that the ODS system controls the cell density-dependent expression of a P. aeruginosa gene subset through the mediation of 10-HOME and 7,10-DiHOME oxylipins.

Lactonase Specificity is Key to Quorum Quenching in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:The human opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa orchestrates the expression of many genes in a cell density-dependent manner by using a molecular communication system referred to as quorum sensing (QS). This bacterium uses an intricate network of regulators and QS molecules known as autoinducers. Among these autoinducers are two acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL) involved in QS circuits which modulate virulence factors production, biofilm formation, and antimicrobial sensitivity. Disrupting QS, a strategy referred to as quorum quenching (QQ), is a promising approach to modulate virulence while not directly challenging bacterial survival. For P. aeruginosa, QQ can be achieved using exogenous AHL-degrading lactonases. However, the importance of enzyme specificity on quenching efficacy has never been investigated. Here, we used two lactonases both targeting the signal molecules N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-L-Homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C12 HSL) and butyryl-homoserine lactone (C4 HSL) albeit with different efficacy on C4 HSL. Interestingly, both lactonases similarly decreased the concentrations of AHL and comparably impacted the expression of AHL-based circuits. Conversely, strong variations were observed in Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal (PQS) regulation. Both lactonases were then found to decrease virulence factors production and biofilm formation in vitro, albeit with different efficiencies. Unexpectedly, only the lactonase with substrate preference for 3-oxo-C12 HSL was able to inhibit P. aeruginosa pathogenicity in vivo in an amoeba infection model. Similarly, large variations between lactonases were observed in proteins involved in antibiotic resistance, biofilm formation, virulence and diverse cellular mechanisms. This global analysis provides the first evidence that QQ enzyme specificity is crucial to modulate QS-associated behavior in P. aeruginosa PA14.

Characterization of cell density-regulated gene expression of the grass endophyte Azoarcus sp. BH72

Project description:Azoarcus sp. BH72 is able to communicate via cell density-dependent gene regulation. Here, the impact of cell-free conditioned culture supernatants, obtained from stationary phase Azoarcus wild type cultures, on gene expression was investigated determining changes in transcript profiles when early exponential aerobic cultures were incubated with cell-free culture supernatants for one and four hours. Bacterial communication via quorum sensing (QS) is involved in the regulation of several cellular mechanisms such as metabolic processes, microbe-host interactions or biofilm formation. The nitrogen-fixing model endophyte of grasses Azoarcus sp. strain BH72 shows density-dependent gene regulation in the absence of common hydrophobic autoinducers for pilA encoding the structural protein of type IV pili that are essential for plant colonization. Here, we used a transcriptomic approach to identify target genes differentially regulated under QS conditions in conditioned supernatants in comparison to standard growth conditions. Analysis used RNA from the early exponential growth phase as control samples for comparison to the quorum-sensing condition samples taken at one hour and four hours after incubation with cell-free culture supernatants.

Comparative genomic hybridisation data from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from cystic fibrosis lung infections

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen in the lungs of the cystic fibrosis patients. As infection develops the organism progressively adapts to its environment and its mode of pathogenesis alters, frequently including the loss of quorum sensing (QS) regulated virulence factors. We used microarrays to determine genomic differences by comparative genome hybridisation between two P. aeruginosa isolates from CF patients, one of which exhibited an active quorum sensing (QS) system (UUPA38) typical of early acute infection while the other was QS-compromised (UUPA85) typical of chronic CF-adapted infection. Genomic DNA was harvested from the two isolates, fragmented using DNase I and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays. We aimed to identify genes not present in both isolates.

Gene expression data from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from cystic fibrosis lung infections

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen in the lungs of the cystic fibrosis patients. As infection develops the organism progressively adapts to its environment and its mode of pathogenesis alters, frequently including the loss of quorum sensing regulated virulence factors. We used microarrays to detail differences between two P. aeruginosa isolates from CF patients, one of which (UUPA38) exhibited an active quorum sensing system (QS+) typical of early acute infection while the other (UUPA85) was QS-compromised (QS-) typical of chronic CF-adapted infection. Bacterial cell biomass was harvested from triplicate biofilm and planktonic cultures of each of 2 strains of P. aeruginosa. RNA was extracted, converted to cDNA and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays. We aimed to identify genes which were differentially transcribed between the 2 isolates during both modes of growth.

Alterations in the extracellular proteome of human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa in response to natural and modified N-acyl-L-homoserine lactones

Project description:The common opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa employs quorum sensing QS to regulate a large set of genes involved in virulence and host-pathogen interactions. The Las circuit positioned on the top of the QS hierarchy in P. aeruginosa, makes use of N-acyl-L-homoserine lactones (AHL) as signal molecules, like N-3-oxo-dodecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (3O-C12-HSL). Here, a quantitative proteomic approach was used to study the effect of natural 3O-C12-HSL and four AHL analogues on the expression and excretion of QS-regulated extracellular proteins. Treatment with AHL compounds resulted in significant difference in appearance of the 3O-C12-HSL-responsive reference proteins related to QS communication and virulence, i.e., a distinct activity as QS modulators. In summary, 3O-C12-HSL has a profound effect on extracellular proteome involved in the pathogenicity of P. aeruginosa, and the four AHL analogues have achieved a distinct inhibitory effect on the extracellular proteome.

ChIP-seq analyses of 10 quorum sensing regulators in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:The Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum-sensing (QS) systems contribute to bacterial homeostasis and pathogenicity. Although many regulators have been characterized to control the production of virulence factors and QS signaling molecules, its detailed regulatory mechanisms still remain elusive. Here, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) on 10 key QS regulators. The direct regulation of these genes by corresponding regulator has been confirmed by Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions (qRT-PCR). Binding motifs are found by using MEME suite and verified by footprint assays in vitro. Collectively, this work provides new cues to better understand the detailed regulatory networks of QS systems.

Novel virulence factors in host-adapted Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection of the Cystic Fibrosis airways

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa airway infection is the primary cause of death in Cystic Fibrosis (CF). During early infection P. aeruginosa produces multiple virulence factors, which cause acute pulmonary disease and are largely regulated by quorum sensing (QS) intercellular signalling networks. Longitudinal clinical studies have observed the loss, through adaptive mutation, of QS and QS-related virulence in late chronic infection. Although the mechanisms are not understood, infection with QS mutants has been linked to a worse outcome for CF patients. By comparing QS-active and QS-inactive P. aeruginosa CF isolates, we have identified novel virulence factors and pathways associated with QS disruption. In particular, we noted factors implicating increased intra-phagocyte survival. Our data present novel targets as candidates for future CF therapies. Some of these targets are already the subject of drug development programmes for the treatment of other bacterial pathogens and may provide cross-over benefit to the CF population.
