Project description:Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a common acute otitis media pathogen, with an incidence that is increased by previous antibiotic treatment. NTHi is also an emerging causative agent of other chronic infections in humans, some linked to morbidity, and all of which impose substantial treatment costs. In this study we explore the possibility that antibiotic exposure may stimulate biofilm formation by NTHi bacteria. We discovered that sub-inhibitory concentrations of beta-lactam antibiotic (i.e., amounts that partially inhibit bacterial growth) stimulated the biofilm-forming ability of NTHi strains, an effect that was strain and antibiotic dependent. When exposed to sub-inhibitory concentrations of beta-lactam antibiotics NTHi strains produced tightly packed biofilms with decreased numbers of culturable bacteria but increased biomass. The ratio of protein per unit weight of biofilm decreased as a result of antibiotic exposure. Antibiotic-stimulated biofilms had altered ultrastructure, and genes involved in glycogen production and transporter function were up regulated in response to antibiotic exposure. Down-regulated genes were linked to multiple metabolic processes but not those involved in stress response. Antibiotic-stimulated biofilm bacteria were more resistant to a lethal dose (10M-BM-5g/mL) of cefuroxime. Our results suggest that beta-lactam antibiotic exposure may act as a signaling molecule that promotes transformation into the biofilm phenotype. Loss of viable bacteria, increase in biofilm biomass and decreased protein production coupled with a concomitant up-regulation of genes involved with glycogen production might result in a biofilm of sessile, metabolically inactive bacteria sustained by stored glycogen. These biofilms may protect surviving bacteria from subsequent antibiotic challenges, and act as a reservoir of viable bacteria once antibiotic exposure has ended. 12 samples

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) is the predominant causative organism of acute otitis media (AOM) in children. A human cDNA microarray comprising 30,968 human genome probes was used to evaluate the transcriptional changes that occur in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) at the onset of clinical AOM caused by Spn infection in children after comparison of microarray results with the pre-infection healthy stage of the same children.

A human cDNA microarray comprising 30,968 human genome probes was used to evaluate the transcriptional changes that occur in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) at the onset of clinical AOM caused by NTHi infection in children after comparison of microarray results with the pre-infection healthy stage of the same children. Four to ten milliliters of heparinized peripheral venous blood was collected from children at 6 to 30 months of age when they were in acute otitis media (AOM) stage and pre-infection healthy stage. The diagnosis of AOM was based on symptoms and signs as well as Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae culture positive in the middle ear fluid. Patients with polymicrobial infections, history of immunodeficiency, history of chronic or recurrent AOM, chronic disease, or receiving steroids or other immunomodulatory agents were excluded. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated by the Ficoll gradient and total RNA was extracted from PBMCs using the QIAamp RNA blood Mini Kit (Qiagen, Maryland, USA) according to manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Double-stranded cDNA generated from total RNA was labeled with Cyanine-5 and subsequently hybridized to Human OneArray glass slides according to the manufacturer's standard protocols (PhalanxBio Inc, CA, USA). Microarrays were scanned at 5 M-NM-<m resolution using an Agilent scanner. Raw intensity signals for each microarray were captured using a Molecular Dynamics Axon 4100A scanner, measured using GenePixProM-bM-^DM-" Software. The data from all microarrays in each experimental set was then analyzed using Omicsoft Array Studio software; control and missing features were removed, and the remaining signals were quantile normalized.
