Project description:Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a common pediatric condition that predisposes children to renal damage after urinary tract infection (UTI). We profiled the urinary proteome of VUR patients with recurrent UTI and renal scarring to identify potential biomarkers characterizing this condition. Urine was obtained from 22 age-matched controls and 22 patients with low grade VUR (1-3 out of 5), renal scarring, and history of recurrent UTI. Proteins extracted from these samples were analyzed by mass spectrometry for protein identification and quantitation for comparison.

Project description:Urinary tract infections (UTIs) constitute a highly relevant model of microbial adaptation, in which the contrasting effects of pathogens and commensals on host tissues are clearly displayed. While virulent Escherichia coli cause severe, potentially life-threatening disease by breaking the inertia of the mucosal barrier and infecting the kidneys, the most common outcome of bacteriuria is an asymptomatic carrier state resembling commensalism at other mucosal sites. It remains unclear if the lack of destructive inflammation merely reflects low virulence or if carrier strains actively inhibit disease associated responses in the host. To address this question, we examined the effects of asymptomatic bacterial carriage on host gene expression. Therapeutic urinary tract inoculation with the prototype ABU strain E. coli 83972 is a safe alternative approach in patients with therapy-resistant recurrent UTI. The strain establishes persistent bacteriuria, protecting patients against super-infection with more virulent strains. Using this protocol, we examined if the establishment of asymptomatic bacterial carriage alters host gene expression. After antibiotic treatment to remove prior infection, patients were inoculated with E. coli 83972 through a catheter. Blood samples were obtained before and 24 h after inoculation.

Project description:Bacterial vaginosis (BV), a common syndrome characterized by Lactobacillus-deficient vaginal microbiota, is associated with adverse health outcomes. BV often recurs after standard antibiotic therapy in part because antibiotics promote microbiota dominance by Lactobacillus iners instead of Lactobacillus crispatus, which has more beneficial health associations. Strategies to promote L. crispatus and inhibit L. iners are thus needed. We show that oleic acid (OA) and similar long-chain fatty acids simultaneously inhibit L. iners and enhance L. crispatus growth. These phenotypes require OA-inducible genes conserved in L. crispatus and related lactobacilli, including an oleate hydratase (ohyA) and putative fatty acid efflux pump (farE). FarE mediates OA resistance, while OhyA is robustly active in the vaginal microbiota and enhances bacterial fitness by biochemically sequestering OA in a derivative form only ohyA-harboring organisms can exploit. OA promotes L. crispatus dominance more effectively than antibiotics in an in vitro BV model, suggesting a metabolite-based treatment approach.

Project description:Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) are a costly clinical problem affecting millions of women worldwide each year. The majority of rUTI cases are caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). Data from humans and mouse models indicate that some instances of rUTI are caused by UPEC emerging from latent reservoirs in the bladder. Some studies have reported that women with vaginal dysbiosis, typically characterized by high levels of Gardnerella vaginalis and other anaerobes, are at increased risk of UTI. Multiple studies have detected G. vaginalis in urine collected by transurethral catheterization (to limit vaginal contamination), suggesting that some women experience routine urinary tract exposures. We recently reported that inoculation of G. vaginalis into the bladder triggers rUTI from UPEC bladder reservoirs in a mouse model. Here we performed whole bladder RNAseq to identify host pathways involved in G. vaginalis-induced rUTI. We identified multiple host pathways differentially expressed following G. vaginalis exposure. At the gene and transcript level, we identified upregulation of the orphan nuclear receptor Nur77 (aka Nr4a1) and Nur77-regulated genes. Pilot data from Nur77 knockout mice suggests that Nur77 is necessary for G. vaganalis exposure to trigger rUTI.
