Candida auris infection of human whole blood

ABSTRACT: To mimic the initial phases of systemic Candida infections with dissemination via the bloodstream, we used an ex vivo whole blood infection model. Dual TP of C. auris in blood gave insights into fungal adaptations and survival mechanisms as well as the host response to the infection.

Candida auris-macrophage cellular interactions and transcriptional response

Project description:The pathogenic yeast Candida auris represents a global threat of the utmost clinical relevance. This emerging fungal species is remarkable in its resistance to commonly used antifungal and its persistence in the nosocomial settings. The innate immune system is one the first lines of defense preventing the dissemination of pathogens in the host. C. auris is susceptible to circulating phagocytes, namely neutrophils. However, some gaps of knowledge remain regarding the cellular and transcriptional responses towards other phagocytic lineages. In this work, we examined the interactions of this yeast with macrophages. We found that macrophages avidly phagocytose C. auris, however intracellular replication is not inhibited, indicating that C. auris is able to resist the killing mechanisms imposed by the phagocyte. Intracellular replication does not induce macrophage lysis, however. The transcriptional response of C. auris to macrophage phagocytosis is very similar to other members of the CUG clade (C. albicans, C. tropicalis, C. parapsilosis, C. lusitaniae), i.e., downregulation of transcription/translation and upregulation of alternative carbon metabolism pathways, transporters and induction of oxidative stress response and proteolysis. Gene family expansions are common in this yeast, and we found that many of these genes are induced in response to macrophage co-incubation. Among these, amino acid and oligopeptide transporters, as well as lipases and proteases are upregulated. Thus, C. auris shares key transcriptional signatures shared with other fungal pathogens and capitalizes on the expansion of gene families coding for potential virulence attributes that allow its survival, persistence, and evasion of the innate immune system.

Overcoming amphotericin B resistance in Candida auris using the antiemetic drug, rolapitant

Project description:The emergence of Candida auris poses a significant health challenge that has led to a new era of multidrug-resistant fungal infections. Invasive infections caused by C. auris are usually associated with remarkable morbidity and mortality. For many years, amphotericin B (AmB) remained the most efficient and the last line of treatment against most hard-to-treat fungal infections. However, strains of C. auris possess extraordinary resistance to most antifungal agents, including AmB. In this study, we screened ~2600 FDA-approved drugs and clinical compounds to identify the antiemetic drug rolapitant as a promising enhancer to AmB against C. auris. Rolapitant exhibited potent synergistic interactions with AmB against all tested (29/29) C. auris isolates. In a time-kill assay, rolapitant restored the fungicidal activity of AmB within 4 h. Additionally, the synergistic relationship between rolapitant and AmB was observed against other medically crucial Candida, Cryptococcus and Aspergillus species with ΣFICI that ranged from 0.16 to 0.5. In a transcriptomic study, ion transporters and ATP generation were identified as primary pathways impacted in C. auris AR0390 cells exposed to rolapitant. An ATP luminescence assay confirmed that rolapitant, at sub-inhibitory concentrations, significantly interfered with ATP production in C. auris. Moreover, rolapitant enhanced the in vivo activity of AmB in a mouse model of disseminated C. auris infection, as the combination reduced the fungal burden in murine kidneys by ~1 log (~90%) colony forming units. Our findings warrant further investigation of using rolapitant to overcome AmB resistance in C. auris and other fungal species.
