An Improved Bacterial Single-cell RNA-seq Reveals Biofilm Heterogeneity [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: In contrast to mammalian cells, bacterial cells lack mRNA polyadenylated tails, presenting a hurdle in isolating mRNA amidst the prevalent rRNA during single-cell RNA-seq. This study introduces a novel method, Ribosomal RNA-derived cDNA Depletion (RiboD), seamlessly integrated into the PETRI-seq technique, yielding RiboD-PETRI. This innovative approach offers a cost-effective, equipment-free, and high-throughput solution for bacterial single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). By efficiently eliminating rRNA reads and substantially enhancing mRNA detection rates (up to 92%), our method enables precise exploration of bacterial population heterogeneity. Applying RiboD-PETRI to investigate biofilm heterogeneity, distinctive subpopulations marked by unique genes within biofilms were successfully identified. Notably, PdeI, a marker for the cell-surface attachment subpopulation, was observed to elevate cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) levels, promoting persister cell formation. Thus, we address a persistent challenge in bacterial single-cell RNA-seq regarding rRNA abundance, exemplifying the utility of this method in exploring biofilm heterogeneity. Our method effectively tackles a long-standing issue in bacterial scRNA-seq: the overwhelming abundance of rRNA. This advancement significantly enhances our ability to investigate the intricate heterogeneity within biofilms at unprecedented resolution.

Bacterial single cell RNA-seq unveils cyclic-di-GMP as an antitoxin critical for antibiotic tolerance in biofilm [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Biofilms are heterogeneous bacterial communities featured by high persister prevalence, responsible for antibiotic tolerance. However, the mechanisms underlying persister formation within biofilms remained ambiguous. Here, by developing and utilizing a ribosomal RNA depleted bacterial single-cell RNA-seq method, RiboD-mSPLiT, we resolved biofilm heterogeneity and discovered pdeI as a marker gene for persister subgroup within biofilms. Remarkably, our findings elucidated that PdeI upregulates cellular levels of c-di-GMP, which acts as an antitoxin to modulate the toxicity of toxin protein HipH. HipH localizes on nucleoid and functions as a potent DNase, inducing cells into a viable but non-culturable state. Conversely, c-di-GMP interacts with HipH, reducing its genotoxic effects and enabling cells to enter a persister state, resulting in drug tolerance. Importantly, by targeting this toxin-antitoxin system, we repressed drug tolerance in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli infections, offering promising therapeutic strategies against chronic and relapsing infections.

Functional heterogeneity analysis of Vibrio algalinolyticus cells in biofilm based on M20 single-cell sequencing

Project description:The heterogeneity of bacterial cells in biofilms is an important property. We performed single-cell sequencing to profile heterogeneous cell populations within Vibrio alginolyticus biofilm. Our analysis has revealed the key functional compartments for the composition and development of biofilms

Bacterial single-cell RNA sequencing captures biofilm transcriptional heterogeneity and differential responses to immune pressure

Project description:Biofilm formation is an important mechanism of survival and persistence for many bacterial pathogens. These multicellular communities contain subpopulations of cells that display vast metabolic and transcriptional diversity along with high recalcitrance to antibiotics and host immune defenses. Investigating the complex heterogeneity within biofilm has been hindered by the lack of a sensitive and high-throughput method to assess stochastic transcriptional activity and regulation between bacterial subpopulations, which requires single-cell resolution. We have developed an optimized bacterial single-cell RNA sequencing method, BaSSSh-seq, to study Staphylococcus aureus diversity during biofilm growth and transcriptional adaptations following immune cell exposure.

Escherichia coli biofilms vs planktonic culture

Project description:Transcription profile of Escherichia coli cells in biofilms under static batch culture was compared to that of E. coli cells in planktonic cultures. Both E. coli biofilm and planktonic cultures were cultivated for 18 h in 10% Luria-Bertani broth at room temperature (20 degree Celsius). Biofilms were grown in static batch culture in petri dishes. Both planktonic culture and biofilms were homogenized and run through a separated protocol. Two condition experiments: E. coli biofilm vs E. coli planktonic cultures. Two biological replicates with independently grown and harvested biofilms or planktonic cultures. Each biological replicate has two technical replicates of hybridization on microarray slides. Each slide has three built-in replicates for each probe.

Transcriptomic analyses of Staphylococcus epidermidis in mixed-species biofilms with Candida albicans

Project description:To explain enhanced biofilm formation and increased dissemination of S. epidermidis in mixed-species biofilms, microarrays were used to explore differential gene expression of S. epidermidis in mixed-species biofilms. One sample from single species biofilm (S1) and mixed-species biofilm (SC2) were excluded from analyses for outliers. We observed upregulation (2.7%) and down regulation (6%) of S. epidermidis genes in mixed-species biofilms. Autolysis repressors lrgA and lrgB were down regulated 36-fold and 27-fold respectively and was associated with increased eDNA possibly due to enhanced autolysis in mixed-species biofilms. These data suggest that bacterial autolysis and release of eDNA in the biofilm matrix may be responsible for enhancement and dissemination of mixed-species biofilms of S. epidermidis and C. albicans.

Biofilm Heterogeneity-Adaptive Photoredox Catalysis Enables Red Light-Triggered Nitric Oxide Release for Combating Drug-Resistant Infections

Project description:The formation of biofilms is closely associated with persistent and chronic infections, and physiological heterogeneity such as pH and oxygen gradients renders biofilms highly resistant to conventional antibiotics. To date, effectively treating biofilm infections remains a significant challenge. Herein, we report the fabrication of micellar nanoparticles adapted to heterogeneous biofilm microenvironments, enabling nitric oxide (NO) release through two distinct photoredox catalysis mechanisms. The key design feature involves the use of tertiary amine (TA) moieties, which function as sacrificial agents to avoid the quenching of photocatalysts under normoxic and neutral pH conditions and proton acceptors at acidic pH to allow deep biofilm penetration. This biofilm-adaptive NO-releasing platform shows excellent antibiofilm activity against ciprofloxacin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) biofilms both in vitro and in a mouse skin infection model, providing a strategy for combating biofilm heterogeneity and biofilm-related infections.
