Gene expression analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis high-persister (hip) mutants.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial persister cells are phenotypic variants of regular cells that are tolerant to antibiotics. High-persister (hip) mutants of Mycobacterium tuberculosis produce 10- to 1,000-fold more persister cells than the wild type strain when challenged with various antibiotics. Comparison of gene expression pattern of the hip mutants may provide clues as to the genetic mechanisms underlying persister formation. Transcriptome analysis will provide information on what differentiates M. tuberculosis hip strains from regular strains, which will be useful in the development of anti-persister therapy for persister cell eradication.

Gene expression analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis high-persister (hip) mutants.

Transcriptome analysis will provide information on what differentiates M. tuberculosis hip strains from regular strains, which will be useful in the development of anti-persister therapy for persister cell eradication. Twelve independent M. tuberculosis hip mutants and the wild type strain were grown to stationary phase in duplicate. To avoid analyzing the drug effect, total RNA was extracted from the cultures prior to the addition of antibiotic for hybridization to Affymetrix microarrays. Data analysis was performed by comparing the hip mutants to the wild type control.

Transcriptome analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates.

Project description:Bacterial persister cells are phenotypic variants of regular cells that are tolerant to antibiotics. Analysis of clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis showed that strains vary substantially in their tolerance to antibiotics. The level of persisters was very high is some isolates, suggesting that these are hip mutants. We investigated gene expression differences in eight clinical isolates, four of which we characterized as high-persister strains and four as low-persister, or regular, strains. Comparison of gene expression patterns may provide clues as to the genetic mechanisms underlying persister formation.

E. coli BW25113 K-12 hfq vs. wild-type persister

Project description:Persisters are cells which evade stresses like antibiotics and which are characterized by reduced metabolism and a lack of genetic alterations required to achieve this state. We showed previously that MqsR and MqsA of Escherichia coli are a toxin-antitoxin pair that influence cell physiology (e.g., biofilm formation and motility) via RNase activity as well as through regulation of toxin CspD. Here, we show that deletion of the mqsRA locus decreases persister cell formation and, consistent with this result, overexpression of MqsR increases persister cell formation. Furthermore, toxins Hha, CspD, and HokA increase persister cell formation. In addition, by overproducing MqsR in a series of isogenic mutants, we show that Hha and CspD are necessary for persister cell formation via MqsR overexpression. Surprisingly, Hfq, a small RNA chaperone, decreases persistence. A whole-transcriptome study shows that Hfq induces transport-related genes (oppA, oppB, oppC, oppD, oppF, and dppA), outer membrane protein-related genes (ybfM and ybfN), toxins (hha), and proteases (clpX, clpP, and lon). Taken together, these results indicate that toxins CspD and Hha influence persister cell formation via MqsR and that Hfq plays an important role in the regulation of persister cell formation via regulation of transport or outer membrane proteins. Strains: E. coli BW25113 K-12 hfq deleted mutant vs. wild-type Medium: LB Culture: Planktonic cell grown OD=0.5, adjusted OD=1.0, and then exposed to 100 ug/mL ampicillin for 2 h.

Transcription Profiling of the Persister Phenotype in Escherichia Coli

Project description:When bacteria are challenged with antimicrobials, small numbers of cells may survive treatment. These so-called persister cells are not mutants, but are a set of phenotypic variants which, after re-growth exhibit the same susceptibility properties as their progenitor populations. The presence of persisters may determine the effective therapeutic dose of antibiotics and account for the intractability of biofilm-related infections. In the current investigation, Escherichia coli persister cells were isolated without prior exposure to antimicrobials, using fluorescence-assisted cell sorting of a strain, labelled with a chromosomal green fluorescent protein marker. Levels of persistence were inversely proportional to fluorescence intensity in the gfp-tagged E. coli population, and separated persister cells showed enhanced expression of two groups of genes located in the e14 and CP4-6 cryptic prophage regions when analysed by DNA microarray.

Medium chain unsaturated fatty acid ethyl esters inhibit persister formation of Escherichia coli via antitoxin HipB

Project description:Persisters represent a small bacterial population that is dormant and that survives under antibiotic treatment without experiencing genetic adaptation. Persisters are also considered one of the major reasons for recalcitrant chronic bacterial infections. Although several mechanisms of persister formation have been proposed, it is not clear how cells enter the dormant state in the presence of antibiotics or how persister cell formation can be effectively controlled. A fatty acid compound, cis-2-decenoic acid, was reported to decrease persister formation as well as revert the dormant cells to a metabolically active state. We reasoned that some fatty acid compounds may be effective in controlling bacterial persistence because they are known to benefit host immune systems. This study investigated persister cell formation by pathogens that were exposed to nine fatty acid compounds during antibiotic treatment. We found that three medium chain unsaturated fatty acid ethyl esters (ethyl trans-2-decenoate, ethyl trans-2-octenoate, and ethyl cis-4-decenoate) decreased the level of Escherichia coli persister formation up to 110-fold when cells were exposed to ciprofloxacin or ampicillin antibiotics. RNA sequencing analysis and gene deletion persister studies elucidated that these fatty acids inhibit bacterial persistence by regulating antitoxin HipB. A similar persister cell reduction was observed for pathogenic E. coli EDL933, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, and Serratia marcescens ICU2-4 strains. This study demonstrates that fatty acid ethyl esters can be used to disrupt bacterial dormancy to combat persistent infectious diseases.
