Project description:Previous studies have documented the diversity of genetic background of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains associated with healthcare (HA-MRSA), community (CA-MRSA) and livestock (LA-MRSA). The accessory and core-variable genome content of those strains remain largely unknown. To compare the composition of accessory and core-variable genome of Belgian MRSA strains according to host, population setting and genetic background, representative strains of HA- (n=21), CA- (n = 13) and ST398 LA-MRSA (n = 18) were characterized by a DNA-microarray (StaphVar Array) composed of oligonucleotide probes targeting ~400 resistance, adhesion and virulence associated genes.ST398 strains displayed very homogenous hybridization profiles (>94% gene content homology) irrespective of their host origin. This “ST398-specific” genomic profile was not distantly demarked from those of certain human-associated lineages but lacked several virulence- and colonization-associated genes harbored by strains of human origin, such as genes encoding proteases, haemolysins or adhesins. No enterotoxin gene was found among ST398 strains. In conclusion, our findings are consistent with a non-human origin of this ST398 lineage but suggest that it might have the potential to adapt further to the human host.

Project description:The success of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) as pathogens is due to a combination of antibiotic resistance with high virulence. However, evolution of the exceptional virulence potential of CA-MRSA is not understood. Our previous study indicated that differential gene expression contributes substantially to this process. Thus, we here investigated the role of the pivotal virulence gene regulatory system agr in the most prevalent CA-MRSA strain USA300. Using a mouse subcutaneous infection model, we show that agr is essential for the development of CA-MRSA skin infections, the most frequent manifestation of disease caused by CA-MRSA. Furthermore, genome-wide analysis of gene expression revealed significant differences in agr-dependent virulence gene regulation between CA-MRSA, HA-MRSA, and laboratory strains. Our findings demonstrate that agr functionality is critical for CA-MRSA disease and indicate that an adaptation of the agr regulon to optimize expression of a broad set of virulence determinants may have contributed to the evolution of exceptionally pronounced virulence of CA-MRSA strains.

Here we show that PVL had no effect on global gene expression of prominent CA-MRSA strains nor did it affect bacterial clearance from lungs, spleen and kidneys in a highly discriminatory rabbit bacteremia model. These findings negate a large body of epidemiological research that implicated PVL in CA-MRSA virulence. Keywords: mutant vs wild type in 2 different growth phases grown in 2 different medias

Project description:The epidemic community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) clone USA300 has recently become a leading cause of hospital-associated bloodstream infections (BSI). Leveraging this recent introduction into hospitals and the limited genetic variation across the USA300 strains, we combined microbial comparative genomics with phenotypic analyses to discover adaptive mutations. USA300 isolates from BSI were found to have independently evolved single nucleotide variants in the transcriptional regulator sarZ. sarZ inactivation lead to altered expression of virulence factors, resulting in increased lethality in a murine model of BSI. Thus, USA300 strains can optimize their fitness in hospitals through evolution of higher virulence.

Project description:Hemolysins are lytic exotoxins expressed in most strains of S. aureus, but hemolytic activity varies between strains. We have previously reported several novel anti-virulence compounds that disrupt the S. aureus transcriptome, including hemolysin gene expression. This report delves further into our two lead compounds, loratadine and a structurally related brominated carbazole, and their effects on hemolysin production in methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). To gain understanding into how these compounds affect hemolysis, we analyzed these exotoxins at the DNA, RNA, and protein level after in vitro treatment. While lysis of red blood cells varied between strains, DNA sequence variation did not account for it. We hypothesized that our compounds would modulate gene expression of multiple hemolysins in two hospital-acquired strains of MRSA, both with staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) type II. RNA-seq analysis of differential gene expression in untreated and compound-treated cultures revealed hundreds of differentially expressed genes, with a significant enrichment in genes involved in hemolysis. The brominated carbazole and loratadine both displayed the ability to reduce hemolysis in strain 43300 but displayed differential activity in strain USA100. These results corroborate gene expression studies as well as western blots of alpha hemolysin. Together, this work suggests that small molecules may alter exotoxin production in MRSA but that the directionality and/or magnitude of the difference are likely strain dependent.

Project description:Community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) is an emerging threat to human health throughout the world. Rodent MRSA pneumonia models mainly focus on the early innate immune responses to MRSA infection. However, the molecular pattern and mechanisms of recovery from MRSA lung infection are largely unknown. In this study, a nonlethal mouse MRSA pneumonia model was employed to investigate events during lung recovery from MRSA infection. We compared lung bacterial clearance, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) characterization, lung histology, and gene expression profiling between Day 1 and Day 3 post-MRSA infection. Compared to Day 1 post-infection, bacterial colony counts and both BALF total cell number and protein concentration significantly decreased at Day 3 post-infection. Lung cDNA microarray analysis identified 47 significantly up-regulated and 35 down-regulated genes (p<0.01, 1.5-fold change [up and down]). Changes in eight genes were confirmed by real-time PCR. The pattern of gene expression suggests lung recovery is characterized by enhanced cell division, vascularization, and wound healing and by adjustment in host adaptive immune responses. Collectively, this data helps elucidate the molecular mechanisms of lung recovery after MRSA infection.
