Project description:Traditional vaccines are difficult to deploy against the diverse antibiotic-resistant, nosocomial pathogens that cause Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs). We developed a unique, protein-free vaccine to present antibiotic-resistant HAIs. This vaccine protected mice from invasive infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis, multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Rhizopus delemar, and Candida albicans. Protection persisted even in neutropenic mice infected with A. baumannii or R. delemar. Protection was already apparent after 24 hours and lasted for up to 21 days after a single dose, with a second dose restoring efficacy. Protection persisted without lymphocytes but was abrogated with macrophages depletion. This vaccine induced trained immunity by altering the macrophage epigenetic landscape and the inflammatory response to infection.
Project description:The Antibiotic Resistant Sepsis Pathogens Framework Initiative aims to develop a framework dataset of 5 sepsis pathogens (5 strains each) using an integrated application of genomic, transcriptomic, metabolomic and proteomic technologies. The pathogens included in this initiative are: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae complex, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. This submission pertains to strains MS14386.
