Colistin dependence in multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii

ABSTRACT: Here we investigated colistin effects on A. baumannii, employing a Mass spectrometry approach and comparing a colistin-susceptible multidrug-resistantclinical isolate to its colistin-dependent subpopulation obtained by subsequent passages in moderate colistin concentrations. Colistin dependence might represent a stepping-stone to resistance, but the mechanisms of colistin dependence are far from clear.

The nosocomial opportunistic Gram-negative bacterial pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii is resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents and an emerging global health problem. The polymyxin antibiotic colistin, targeting the negatively charged lipid A component of the lipopolysaccharide on the bacterial cell surface, is often considered as the last-resort treatment, but resistance to colistin is unfortunately increasing worldwide. Notably, colistin-susceptible A. baumannii can also deve ...[more]

Project description:Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is a Priority 1 (Critical) pathogen urgently requiring new antibiotics. Polymyxins are a last-line option against CRAB-associated infections. This transcriptomic study utilized a CRAB strain to investigate mechanisms of bacterial killing with polymyxin B, colistin, colistin B and colistin/sulbactam combination therapy. After 4 h of 2 mg/L polymyxin monotherapy, all polymyxins exhibited common modes of action which primarily involved disruption to amino acid and fatty acid metabolism. Of the three monotherapies, polymyxin B induced the greatest number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including for genes involved with fatty acid metabolism. Gene disturbances with colistin and colistin B were highly similar (89% common genes for colistin B), though effects on gene expression were generally lower (0-1.5-fold in most cases) with colistin B. Colistin alone (2 mg/L) or combined with sulbactam (64 mg/L) resulted in rapid membrane disruption as early as 1 h. Transcriptomic analysis of this combination revealed the effects were driven by colistin and included disturbances in fatty acid synthesis and catabolism and inhibition of nutrient uptake. Combination therapy produced substantially higher fold changes in 72% of DEGs shared with monotherapy, resulting in substantially greater reductions in fatty acid biosynthesis and increases in biofilm, cell wall and phospholipid synthesis. This indicates synergistic bacterial killing with the colistin/sulbactam combination results from a systematic increase in perturbation of many genes associated with bacterial metabolism. These mechanistic insights enhance our understanding of bacterial responses to polymyxin mono- and combination therapy and will assist to optimize polymyxin use in patients.
