Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pathogenic micro-organism responsible for many hospital-acquired infections. It is able to adhere to solid surfaces and develop an immobilised community or so-called biofilm. Many studies have been focusing on the use of specific materials to prevent the formation of these biofilms, but the reactivity of the bacteria in contact to surfaces remains unknown. In order to evaluate the impact of different materials on the physiology of Pseudomonas aeruginosa during the first stage of biofilm formation, i.e. adhesion, we investigated the total proteome of cells adhering to three materials: stainless steel, glass and polystyrene. Using tandem mass spectrometry performed at the PAPPSO proteomic platform, 930 proteins were identified, 70 of which were differentially expressed between the materials. Dysregulated proteins belonged to 19 PseudoCAP (Pseudomonas Community Annotation Project) functional classes, with a particular abundance of proteins involved in small molecule transport and membrane proteins. Notably, ten porins or porin precursors were under-produced in bacteria adhering to stainless steel when compared to those adhering to polystyrene and glass. Although adhesion to solid surfaces is an extracellular phenomenon, it involves not only extracellular proteins but also intracellular reactions, as observed with the dysregulation of 11 proteins involved in various metabolisms and five in protein translation. Overall, this work showed that during bacterial adhesion, P. aeruginosa senses the materials concerned and is able to modulate its physiology accordingly.

Project description:ILS1 mutated Candida albicans was unable to grow as yeast-phase cells but was capable of producing a tridimensional biofilm structure in spite of reduced metabolic activity. This biofilm still relied on the classical biofilm genes, while it differentially induced groups of genes involved in adhesion, protein synthesis, cell wall organization, and protein folding. Although the conditional mutant repressed genes annotated for morphology and homeostasis processes affecting morphology and metabolism, the dynamic cell growth enabled the construction of a complex biofilm community independent of ILS1.

Project description:Multispecies biofilms are the predominant form of bacterial growth in natural and human-associated environments. Although the pathways involved in monospecies biofilm have been well characterized, less is known about the metabolic pathways and emergent traits of a multispecies biofilm community. Here, we performed a transcriptome survey of the developmental stages of a 3-species biofilm community and combined it with quantitative imaging and growth experiments. We report the remodelling of central metabolism of two of the three species in this community. Specifically, we observed an increase in the expression of genes associated with glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathways in K. pneumoniae. Similarly, a decrease in the expression of the same pathways in P. protegens was observed along with an increase in expression of glyoxalate cycle genes when grown as a mixed species biofilm, suggesting reorganisation of metabolic pathways and metabolite sharing for the community biofilms. To test the possibility of cross-feeding for the community, planktonic growth experiments revealed that both the Pseudomonads grew well in TCA cycle intermediates, while K. pneumoniae grew poorly when given those carbon sources. Despite this poor growth in mono-culture, K. pneumoniae was still the dominant species in mixed species biofilms cultivated in TCA intermediates as the sole source of carbon. The biofilm growth data, combined with the transcriptomics data, suggests there is reorganisation of metabolism for the community members and may allow for cross-feeding that allows K. pneumoniae to dominate the community. We also demonstrated that sdsA1 of P. aeruginosa was induced upon exposure to the surfactant SDS and that this gene was essential in protecting mono and mixed species biofilms from surfactant stress. This also suggests that the community members can share defence mechanisms. Overall, this study describes a comprehensive transcriptomics level investigation of shared resources, metabolites and stress defence that may underpin the emergent properties of mixed species biofilm communities.

Project description:This study is aimed to isolate marine actinomycetes from sediments from Andaman and the Gulf of Thailand. All 101 marine actinomycetes were screened for anti-biofilm activity. Streptomyces sp. GKU223 showed significantly inhibited biofilm formation of S. aureus. The evaluation of supernatants of anti-biofilm activity produced by Streptomyces sp. GKU223 has been performed. Since the interaction between marine actinomycetes and biofilm forming bacteria has never been investigated, proteomic analysis has been used to identify whole cell proteins involved in anti–biofilm activity. Understanding the interaction at molecular level will lead to sustainably use for anti-biofilm producing marine actinomycetes in pharmaceutical and medicinal applications in the future.

Project description:To combat dental implant-associated infections, there is a need for novel materials which effectively inhibit bacterial biofilm formation. In the present study, a titanium surface functionalization based on the “slippery liquid-infused porous surfaces” (SLIPS) principle was analyzed in an oral flow chamber system. The immobilized liquid layer was stable over 13 days of continuous flow. With increasing flow rates, the surface exhibited a significant reduction in attached biofilm of both the oral initial colonizer Streptococcus oralis and an oral multi-species biofilm composed of S. oralis, Actinomyces naeslundii, Veillonella dispar and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Using single cell force spectroscopy, reduced bacterial adhesion forces on the lubricant layer could be measured. Gene expression patterns in biofilms on SLIPS, on control surfaces and planktonic cultures were also compared. For this purpose, the genome of S. oralis strain ATCC® 9811TM was sequenced using PacBio Sequel technology. Even though biofilm cells showed clear changes in gene expression compared to planktonic cells, no differences could be detected between bacteria on SLIPS and on control surfaces. Therefore, it can be concluded that the ability of liquid-infused titanium to repel biofilms is solely due to weakened bacterial adhesion to the underlying liquid interface.
