Project description:Biocides are chemical compounds widely used in hospital settings for a variety of purposes, but mainly for disinfection. The chemical properties of a biocide, as well as the biocide concentration, influence which cellular targets are affected. Exposure of bacteria to residual concentrations of biocides could lead to development of increased resistance towards the biocide in use, as well as cross-resistance towards other antimicrobials, including antibiotics. The aim of this study was to examine whether biocides could induce any potentially relevant genes that could affect pathogen's drug resistance or fitness. By examining global gene expression of the uropathogenic Escherichia coli CFT073 after exposure to subinhibitory concentrations of five biocides (benzalkonium chloride - BAC, chlorhexidine - CHX, ethanol - EtOH, hydrogen peroxide - H2O2, triclosan - TSN), we found that each biocide changed expression of different groups of genes and that exposure to ethanol caused changes in expression of the largest number of genes among all biocides. In general, the five biocides tested in this study at subinhibitory concentrations did not increase the resistance potential of the pathogen to other antimicrobials. We could, however, identify clusters of genes that could possibly help the strain to grow in the presence of a biocide in the medium. A culture of E. coli CFT073 without any biocide treatment served as the control sample. That culture was grown under the exact same conditions as the five biocide-treated samples. Each sample was collected in three biological replicates at the mid-exponential phase of growth.

Project description:Understanding constraints which shape antibiotic resistance is key for predicting and controlling drug resistance. Here, we performed high-throughput laboratory evolution of Escherichia coli. The transcriptome, resistance, and genomic profiles for the evolved strains in 48 environments were quantitatively analyzed. By analyzing the quantitative datasets through interpretable machine learning techniques, the emergence of low dimensional phenotypic states within the 192 strains was observed. Further analysis revealed the underlying biological processes responsible for the distinct states. We also report a novel constraint which leads to decelerated evolution. These findings bridge the genotypic, gene expression, and drug resistance space, and lead to a comprehensive understanding of constraints for antibiotic resistance.

The aim of this study was to examine whether biocides could induce any potentially relevant genes that could affect pathogen's drug resistance or fitness. By examining global gene expression of the uropathogenic Escherichia coli CFT073 after exposure to subinhibitory concentrations of four biocides (benzalkonium chloride - BAC, chlorhexidine - CHX, hydrogen peroxide - H2O2, triclosan - TSN), we found that each biocide changed expression of different groups of genes and that exposure to benzalkonum chloride caused changes in expression of the largest number of genes among all biocides. In general, the four biocides tested in this study at subinhibitory concentrations did not increase the resistance potential of the pathogen to other antimicrobials. We could, however, identify clusters of genes that could possibly help the strain to grow in the presence of a biocide in the medium.

Project description:Evolution of antibiotic resistance in microbes is frequently achieved by acquisition of spontaneous mutations during antimicrobial therapy. Here we demonstrate that inactivation of a central regulator of iron homeostasis (fur) facilitates laboratory evolution of ciprofloxacin resistance in Escherichia coli. To decipher the underlying molecular mechanisms, we first performed a global transcriptome analysis and demonstrated a substantial reorganization of the Fur regulon in response to antibiotic treatment. We hypothesized that the impact of Fur on evolvability under antibiotic pressure is due to the elevated intracellular concentration of free iron and the consequent enhancement of oxidative damage-induced mutagenesis. In agreement with expectations, over-expression of iron storage proteins, inhibition of iron transport, or anaerobic conditions drastically suppressed the evolution of resistance, while inhibition of the SOS response-mediated mutagenesis had no such effect in fur deficient population. In sum, our work revealed the central role of iron metabolism in de novo evolution of antibiotic resistance, a pattern that could influence the development of novel antimicrobial strategies. We used microarrays to identify genotype specific transcriptional changes under severe DNA damaging conditions (antibiotic ciprofloxacin). We treated Escherichia coli cells with a highly toxic level of ciprofloxacin (gyrase inhibitor) for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We planned to find genotype specific transcriptional responses using WT control (BW25113) and fur-knockout mutant (selected from the KEIO collection) strains during antibiotic treatments. For each treatment type we used two biological replicates.

Project description:The emergence of polymyxin resistance in carbapenem-resistant and extended-spectrum -lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria is a critical threat to human health, and new treatment strategies are urgently required. Here, we investigated the ability of the safe-for-human use ionophore PBT2 to restore antibiotic sensitivity in polymyxin-resistant, ESBL-producing, carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative human pathogens. PBT2 was observed to resensitize Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa to last-resort polymyxin class antibiotics, including the less-toxic next-generation polymyxin derivative, FADDI-287. We were unable to select for mutants resistant to PBT2 + FADDI-287 in polymyxin resistant E. coli containing a plasmid-borne mcr-1 gene or K. pneumoniae carrying a chromosomal mgrB mutation. Using a highly invasive K. pneumoniae strain engineered for polymyxin resistance through mgrB mutation, we successfully demonstrated the efficacy of PBT2 + FADDI-287 in vivo for the treatment of Gram-negative sepsis. These data present a new treatment modality to break antibiotic resistance in high priority polymyxin-resistant Gram-negative pathogens.

Project description:Bacterial evolution of antibiotic resistance frequently has deleterious side effects on microbial growth, virulence, and susceptibility to other antimicrobial agents. However, it is unclear how these trade-offs could be utilized for manipulating antibiotic resistance in the clinic, not least because the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Using laboratory evolution, we demonstrate that clinically relevant resistance mutations in Escherichia coli constitutively rewire a large fraction of the transcriptome in a repeatable and stereotypic manner. Strikingly, lineages adapted to functionally distinct antibiotics and having no resistance mutations in common show a wide range of parallel gene expression changes that alter oxidative stress response, iron homeostasis, and the composition of the bacterial outer membrane and cell surface. These common physiological alterations are associated with changes in cell morphology and enhanced sensitivity to antimicrobial peptides. Finally, the constitutive transcriptomic changes induced by resistance mutations are largely distinct from those induced by antibiotic stresses in the wild-type. This indicates a limited role for genetic assimilation of the induced antibiotic stress response during resistance evolution. Our work suggests that diverse resistance mutations converge on similar global transcriptomic states that shape genetic susceptibility to antimicrobial compounds.

Project description:The emergence of colistin resistance in carbapenem-resistant and extended-spectrum ß-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria is a significant threat to human health, and new treatment strategies are urgently required. Here we investigated the ability of the safe-for-human use ionophore PBT2 to restore antibiotic sensitivity in several polymyxin-resistant, ESBL-producing, carbapenem resistant Gram-negative human pathogens. PBT2 was observed to resensitize Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa to last-resort polymyxin class antibiotics, including a ‘next generation’ polymyxin derivative, FADDI-287. To gain additional insight into the potential mechanism of action of PBT2, we analyzed the transcriptome of K. pneumoniae and E. coli in the presence of sub-inhibitory concentrations of PBT2. Treatment with PBT2 was associated with multiple stress responses in both K. pneumoniae and E. coli. Significant changes in the transcription of transition metal ion homeostasis genes were observed in both strains.

Project description:Cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAPs) are promising novel alternatives to conventional antibacterial agents, but the overlap in resistance mechanisms between small-molecule antibiotics and CAPs is unknown. Does evolution of antibiotic resistance decrease (cross-resistance) or increase (collateral sensitivity) susceptibility to CAPs? We systematically addressed this issue by studying the susceptibilities of a comprehensive set of antibiotic resistant Escherichia coli strains towards 24 antimicrobial peptides. Strikingly, antibiotic resistant bacteria frequently showed collateral sensitivity to CAPs, while cross-resistance was relatively rare. We identified clinically relevant multidrug resistance mutations that simultaneously elevate susceptibility to certain CAPs. Transcriptome and chemogenomic analysis revealed that such mutations frequently alter the lipopolysaccharide composition of the outer cell membrane and thereby increase the killing efficiency of membrane-interacting antimicrobial peptides. Furthermore, we identified CAP-antibiotic combinations that rescue the activity of existing antibiotics and slow down the evolution of resistance to antibiotics. Our work provides a proof of principle for the development of peptide based antibiotic adjuvants that enhance antibiotic action and block evolution of resistance.
