Project description:Study hypothesis: A decreased faecal load in the surgical wound diminished the incidence of surgical site infection.
Primary outcome(s): Incidence of surgical site infection. The criteria to define surgical site infection are described by Disease Control and Prevention National Healthcare Safety Network (Spain). For the purposes of this study superficial and deep wound infections would be considered as a unique entity condition. This will be measured 30 days after the operation.

Project description:Biofilms have been implicated in delayed wound healing, although the mechanisms by which biofilms impair wound healing are poorly understood. Many species of bacteria produce exotoxins and exoenzymes that may inhibit healing. In addition, oxygen consumption by biofilms, as well as responding leukocytes, may impede wound healing. In this study, we used oxygen microsensors to measure oxygen transects through in vitro-cultured biofilms, biofilms formed in vivo within scabs from a diabetic (db/db) mouse model, and ex vivo human chronic wound specimens. The results show that oxygen levels within mouse scabs had steep gradients that reached minima ranging from 17-72 mmHg on live mice and 6.4-1.1 mmHg on euthanized mice. The oxygen gradients in the mouse scabs were similar to those observed for clinical isolates cultured in vitro and for human ex vivo specimens. No oxygen gradients were observed for heat-killed mouse scabs, suggesting that active metabolism by the viable bacteria and host cells contributed to the reduced oxygen partial pressure of the scabs. To characterize the metabolic activities of the bacteria in the mouse scabs, we performed transcriptomics analyses of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms associated with the db/db mice wounds using Affymetrix microarrays. The results demonstrated that the bacteria expressed genes for metabolic activities associated with cell growth. Interestingly, the transcriptome results indicated that the bacteria within the wounds also experienced oxygen-limitation stress. Among the bacterial genes that were expressed in vivo were genes associated with the Anr-mediated hypoxia-stress response. Other bacterial stress response genes highly expressed in vivo were genes associated with stationary-phase growth, osmotic stress, and RpoH-mediated heat shock stress. Overall, the results support the hypothesis that bacterial biofilms in chronic wounds promote chronicity by contributing to the maintenance of localized low oxygen tensions. Transcriptional profiling of two independent biological replicates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms, as grown to 72 hours and used as inocula applied to the murine wounds, was performed. A principle components analysis (PCA) was used to provide an overview of the transcriptome data from the 28-day mouse wound scab, comparing the data to the biofilm inoculum, and to published reports of P. aeruginosa biofilm and planktonic samples. The analysis shows that the transcriptome of the mouse wound scab was distinct from the biofilm inoculum that was applied to the wound, demonstrating a shift in biofilm gene expression following 28 days of infection. We sought to characterize P. aeruginosa activity within biofilms in the mouse wound model by isolating and identifying mRNA from the biofilms used as inocula and from the wound scabs 28 days post infection.

Project description:The opportunistic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major nosocomial pathogen causing both devastating acute and chronic persistent infections. During the course of an infection, P. aeruginosa rapidly adapts to the specific conditions within the host. In the present study, we aimed at the identification of genes that are highly expressed during biofilm infections such as in chronically infected lungs of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), burn wounds and subcutaneous mouse tumours. We found a common subset of differentially regulated genes in all three in vivo habitats and evaluated whether their inactivation impacts on the bacterial capability to form biofilms in vitro and to establish biofilm-associated infections in a murine model. Additive effects on biofilm formation and host colonization were discovered by the combined inactivation of several highly expressed genes. However, even combined inactivation was not sufficient to abolish the establishment of an infection completely. These findings can be interpreted as evidence that either redundant traits encode functions that are essential for in vivo survival and chronic biofilm infections and/or bacterial adaptation is considerably achieved independently of transcription levels. Supplemental screens, will have to be applied in order to identify the minimal set of key genes essential for the establishment of chronic infectious diseases. Ex-vivo samples were collected from burn wound, cystic fibrosis patients mucous and mice tumor and stabilized for the RNA extraction. Recovered clinical strains were cultivated in rich medium control conditions untill the early stationary phase and RNA was extracted. The murine tumors were infected with burn wound isolated strains

Project description:Wound infections are traditionally thought to occur when microbial burden exceeds the innate clearance capacity of host immune system. Here we introduce the idea that the wound environment itself plays a significant contributory role to wound infection. We developed a clinically relevant murine model of soft tissue infection to explore the role of activation of microbial virulence in response to tissue factors as a mechanism by which pathogenic bacteria cause wound infections. Mice underwent abdominal skin incision and light muscle injury with a crushing forceps versus skin incision alone followed by topical inoculation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pseudomonas aeruginosa whole genome transcriptional profiling demonstrated that fascia induced the activation of multiple genes responsible for the synthesis of the iron scavenging protein pyochelin. Ex-vivo murine fascia homogenates were prepared and Pseudomonas aeruginosa MPAO1 was incubated with an inoculum of the fascia homogenate solution. Pseudomonas aeruginosa MPAO1 incubated under the same condtions without the homogenate was used as the control group. Three biological replicates in each group was used.

Project description:Infections of burn wounds, especially those caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, could trigger sepsis or septic shock, which is the main cause of death after burn injury. Compared with traditional saline-wet-to-dry dressings, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is more effective for the prevention and treatment of wound infections. However, the mechanism by which NPWT controls infection and accelerates wound healing remains unclear. Accordingly, in this study, the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of NPWT were explored using a murine model of P. aeruginosa-infected burn wounds. NPWT significantly reduced P. aeruginosa levels in wounds, enhanced blood flow, and promoted wound healing. Additionally, NPWT markedly alleviated wound inflammation and increased the expression of wound healing–related molecules. Recent evidence points to a role of circular RNAs (circRNAs) in wound healing; hence, whole-transcriptome sequencing of wound tissues from NPWT and control groups was performed to evaluate circRNA expression profiles.
