Project description:Unknown are the mechanisms of tolerance and persistence associated to several compounds in A.baumannii clinical isolates. Using transcriptomical and microbiological studies, we found a link between bacterial tolerance mechanisms to clorhexidine as well as the development of persistence in presence of imipenem in an A.baumannii strain belonging to ST-2 clinical clone (carbapenem-resistant with OXA-24 ß-lactamase and AbkAB TA system by plasmid). Interestingly, in A.baumannii ATCC17978 strain (carbapenem-susceptible isolate which carries AbkAB TA system by plasmid) showed persistence in presence of imipenem.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study was to elucidate the collateral effects associated with OXA-23 overexpression on the Acinetobacter baumannii global transcriptome. Results: Besides the 99.73-fold increase in blaOXA-23 transcript upon IPTG induction, no other transcripts showed more than a 2-fold change compared to the wildtype control. This suggests that OXA-23 over expression to levels similarly observed in multi drug resistant A. baumannii clinical isolates does not effect the transcriptome.

Project description:Cefiderocol (CFDC) is a novel chlorocatechol-substituted siderophore approved to treat complicated urinary tract infections and for hospital-acquired and ventilator-acquired pneumonia. In previous work, human fluids, were shown to increase the minimum inhibitory concentration (MICs) of Acinetobacter baumannii against CFDC and reduce the expression of genes related to iron uptake systems, which could explain the need for higher concentrations of CFDC to exert inhibitory action. Herein, we analyzed the impact of human urine (HU), which contains low albumin concentrations, on the expression of iron-uptake related genes and MIC values of two carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii. Levels of resistance to CFDC were not modified by HU in strain AMA40 but were reduced in the case of strain AB5075. Testing other carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii isolates showed that the CFDC MICs were unmodified or reduced in the presence of HU. The expression of piuA, pirA, bauA, and bfnH determined by qRT-PCR was enhanced in both strains when HU was present in the culture medium. All four tested genes are involved in recognizing ferric siderophore complexes or internalization into the cell’s cytosol. In contrast, the effect of HU on genes associated with resistance to β-lactams, antibiotics commonly used to treat urinary tract infections caused by A. baumannii, was variable; the transcriptional analysis of pbp1, pbp3, blaOXA-51-like, blaADC, and blaNDM-1 showed significant variation. In summary, HU, probably due to the albumin and free iron content, does not adversely impact or slightly improves the activity of CFDC when tested against A. baumannii in urine in contrast to other human bodily fluids.

Project description:Acinetobacter baumannii is an emerging nosocomial pathogen that causes severe infections such as pneumonia or blood stream infections. As the incidence of multidrug-resistant A. baumannii infections in intensive care units increases, the pathogen is considered of greater clinical concern. Little is known about the molecular interaction of A. baumannii with its host yet. In order to study the host cell response upon A. baumannii infection, a complexome analysis was performed. For this, we identified a virulent ( A. baumannii 2778) and a non virulent (A. baumannii 1372) clinical isolate of genetic similarity > 95 % (both isolates from IC 2 harboring OXA 23). HUVECs were infected with each strain and enriched mitochondrial fraction was used for complexome profiling. Complexome analysis identified dramatic reduction of mitochondrial protein complexes in the strain of greater virulence.

Project description:lpsB encodes a glycosyltransferase involved in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) synthesis. LPS is a major component of the Gram-negative bacterial outer membranes. We used custom-made Affymetrix A. baumannii strain ATCC 17978 derived GeneChips to compare the gene expression properties of wild type and isogenic lpsB mutant cells. Two mutants were evaluated; A. baumannii strain 5A7 is a ATCC 17978 derivative harboring a transposon (Tn5) within lpsB (A1S_0430 locus); A. baumannii strain containing a deletion of lpsB (A1S_0430). A. baumannii strain ATCC 17978, 5A7 (lpsB:Tn5) or IH1∆lpsB (∆lpsB) were grown to mid-exponential phase growth, total bacterial RNA was isolated and subjected to GeneChip hybridization and analysis. We sought to determine the transcription profile of lpsB mutated cells.

Project description:A. baumannii has the propensity to colonize abiotic surfaces and this is thought to mediate its transmission to susceptible patients. We found that disruption of A. baumannii ribonuclease T2 family protein (ATCC 17978 locus A1S_3026) severely diminishes the organism's ability to colonize abiotic surfaces. We used Affymetrix A. baumannii GeneChips (part number PMDACBA1) to compare the gene expression properties of wild type and isogenic ribonuclease T2 family protein mutant cells. A. baumanni strain 98-37-09 (wild type) or isogenic ACJ7 (harboring a EZ-Tn5 insertion in A1S_3026) cells were grown to mid-exponential phase growth in Luria Burtani medium, total bacterial RNA was isolated and subjected to GeneChip hybridization and analysis. We sought to determine the regulatory effects of A1S_3026.

Project description:Desiccation tolerance has been implicated as an important characteristic that potentiates the spread of the bacterial pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii through hospitals on dry surfaces. Despite the potential importance of this stress response, scarce information is available describing the underlying mechanisms of A. baumannii desiccation tolerance. Here we characterize the factors influencing desiccation survival of A. baumannii. At the macroscale level, we find that desiccation tolerance is influenced by cell density, growth phase, and desiccation medium. Our transcriptome analysis indicates that desiccation represents a unique state for A. baumannii compared to commonly studied growth conditions and strongly influences pathways responsible for proteostasis. Remarkably, we find that an increase in total cellular protein aggregates, which is often considered deleterious, correlates positively with the ability of A. baumannii to survive desiccation. We show that artificially inducing protein aggregate formation increases desiccation survival, and more importantly, that proteins incorporated into cellular aggregates can retain activity. Our results suggest that protein aggregates may promote desiccation tolerance in A. baumannii through preserving and protecting proteins from damage during desiccation until rehydration occurs.
