Project description:The polyamine biosynthesis gene, speE, in Streptococcus pneumoniae TIGR4 is necessary for survival in murine models of pneumococcal pneumonia. To date, there is no description of polyamine biosynthesis dependent pneumococcal gene expression. In this study, we compared gene expression between the wild-type and biosynthesis deficient (speE) TIGR4 by RNA-Seq analysis.

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae is the primary cause of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia with rates of penicillin and multi-drug resistance exceeding 80% and 40%, respectively. The innate immune response uses various chemical insults to control infection, including metal stress mediated by localized changes in zinc abundance. Here, we characterized the impact of S. pneumoniae zinc intoxication revealing disruptions in central carbon metabolism, lipid biogenesis and peptidoglycan biosynthesis. To dysregulate zinc homeostasis in the wild-type strain, we investigated the safe-for-human use ionophore PBT2. PBT2 rendered wild-type S. pneumoniae strains sensitive to a range of antibiotics.

Project description:Streptococcus (S.) pneumoniae is the most frequently isolated causative pathogen community-acquired pneumonia, a leading cause of mortality worldwide. We investigated the role of the inflammasome sensor NLRP3 and the inflammasome adapter ASC during S. pneumoniae pneumonia. Detailed analysis of the early inflammatory response in the lung by whole genome transcriptional profiling, we identified several mediators that were differentially expressed between Nlrp3-/- and Asc-/ - mice. WT, Nlrp3- and Asc-deficient mice were intranasally inocculated with Streptococcus pneumoniae D39 and ATCC6303 both at high and low dose. Lung homogenates were harvested and gene expression profiling was performed.

Project description:<p><em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em> is the primary cause of community-acquired bacterial pneumonia with rates of penicillin and multi-drug resistance exceeding 80% and 40%, respectively. The innate immune response generates a variety of antimicrobial agents to control infection including zinc stress. Here, we characterized the impact of zinc intoxication on <em>S. pneumoniae</em>, revealing disruptions in central carbon metabolism, lipid biogenesis and peptidoglycan biosynthesis. Characterization of the pivotal peptidoglycan biosynthetic enzyme GlmU revealed an exquisite sensitivity to zinc inhibition. Disruption of the sole zinc efflux pathway, czcD, rendered <em>S. pneumonia</em>e highly susceptible to β-lactam antibiotics. To dysregulate zinc homeostasis in the wild-type strain, we investigated the safe-for-human use ionophore PBT2. PBT2 rendered wild-type <em>S. pneumoniae</em> strains sensitive to a range of antibiotics. Using an invasive ampicillin-resistant strain, we demonstrate in a murine pneumonia infection model the efficacy of PBT2+ampicillin treatment. These findings present a therapeutic modality to break resistance of drug-resistant <em>S. pneumoniae</em>.</p>

Project description:This study reports on the co-administration of a zinc ionophore (PBT-2) and ampicillin to break antibiotic resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae in a murine pneumonia model. The molecular mechanism for this heightened antimicrobial activity was identified through transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of a wild type strain and a zinc efflux mutant to identify cellular targets of zinc intoxication. This revealed that zinc intoxication induces numerous cellular disruptions, which when combined with frontline antibiotics, can break antibiotic resistance and potentially preclude further resistance from emerging.

Project description:Diagnostic primer extension assay to serotype Streptococcus pneumoniae. Assay validation. Background: Monitoring of Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype epidemiology is essential since serotype replacement is a concern when introducing new polysaccharide-conjugate vaccines. To simplify S. pneumoniae serotyping, a novel PCR-based automated microarray assay was developed to assist in the tracking of the serotypes. Results: Autolysin (lytA), pneumolysin (ply) and eight genes located in the capsular operon (cps) were amplified using multiplex PCR. This step was followed by a tagged fluorescent primer extension step targeting serotype-specific polymorphisms. The tagged primers were then hybridized to a microarray. Results were exported to an expert system that transforms genetic typing data into capsular serotype identification. The assay was validated on 166 cultured S. pneumoniae samples from 63 different serotypes as determined by the Quellung method. In addition, the assay was tested on clinical specimens including 43 cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients with meningitidis and 59 nasopharyngeal aspirates from bacterial pneumonia patients. The assay presented with no cross-reactivity for 24 relevant bacterial species found in these types of samples. The limit of detection for serotyping and S. pneumoniae detection was 100 genome equivalent per reaction. Conclusion: This automated assay is amenable to clinical testing and does not require any culturing of the samples. The assay will be useful for the evaluation of serotype prevalence changes after new conjugate vaccines introduction.

Project description:Zn and Mn are essential micronutrients for many bacteria including Streptococcus pneumoniae. While Zn performs vital structural or catalytic roles in certain proteins, in excess, Zn can inhibit Mn uptake by S. pneumoniae and displace, but not functionally replace Mn from key enzymes including superoxide dismutase A (SodA). Here, we show that the Ccn small regulatory RNAs promote S. pneumoniae Mn uptake and resistance to the oxidative stress. Furthermore, we demonstrate that these small regulatory RNAs modulate the ability of S. pneumoniae to cause invasive pneumonia. Altogether, these findings reveal a new layer of regulation of S. pneumoniae Zn and Mn homeostasis and suggest that there are factors in addition to known transporters that modulate intracellular Mn levels.

Project description:For the last two decades, the three most common causes of death world-wide have been ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and respiratory tract infections; the latter being caused mainly by the influenza virus and the bacterial pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn). Reports through this period of time have shown that elderly patients admitted to the hospital for severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), experience ~10-25% mortality rates and up to 40% of them expired within one year. A key contributing factor for the observed high mortality rate are the major adverse cardiac events (MACE) that occur during hospitalization and convalescence9. Notably, during severe pneumococcal infections, Spn, the most common cause of CAP, has been shown to be capable of myocardial invasion, induction of cardiomyocyte death, and disruption of cardiac contractility. In addition, changes to heart functionality have also been reported after influenza infection in humans, however the mechanisms for this remain unclear.
