A genetic screen identifies a role for oprF in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm stimulation by subinhibitory antibiotics

Abstract Biofilms are surface-associated communities of bacteria that grow in a self-produced matrix of polysaccharides, proteins, and extracellular DNA (eDNA). Sub-minimal inhibitory concentrations (sub-MIC) of antibiotics induce biofilm formation, potentially as a defensive response to antibiotic stress. However, the mechanisms behind sub-MIC antibiotic-induced biofilm formation are unclear. We show that treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with multiple classes of sub-MIC antibiotics with distinct targets induces biofilm formation. Further, addition of exogenous eDNA or cell lysate failed to increase biofilm formation to the same extent as antibiotics, suggesting that the release of cellular contents by antibiotic-driven bacteriolysis is insufficient. Using a genetic screen for stimulation-deficient mutants, we identified the outer membrane porin OprF and the ECF sigma factor SigX as important. Similarly, loss of OmpA – the Escherichia coli OprF homolog – prevented sub-MIC antibiotic stimulation of E. coli biofilms. Our screen also identified the periplasmic disulfide bond-forming enzyme DsbA and a predicted cyclic-di-GMP phosphodiesterase encoded by PA2200 as essential for biofilm stimulation. The phosphodiesterase activity of PA2200 is likely controlled by a disulfide bond in its regulatory domain, and folding of OprF is influenced by disulfide bond formation, connecting the mutant phenotypes. Addition of reducing agent dithiothreitol prevented sub-MIC antibiotic biofilm stimulation. Finally, activation of a c-di-GMP-responsive promoter follows treatment with sub-MIC antibiotics in the wild-type but not an oprF mutant. Together, these results show that antibiotic-induced biofilm formation is likely driven by a signaling pathway that translates changes in periplasmic redox state into elevated biofilm formation through increases in c-di-GMP

La vita (e la morte) nelle strutture per anziani durante la pandemia. Una ricerca qualitativa in Emilia-Romagna

La ricerca che il libro presenta, nata dalla collaborazione tra il Centro di Ricerca Relational Social Work dell'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore e il sindacato Federazione Nazionale Pensionati CISL Emilia-Romagna, ha preso l'avvio nel primo periodo dell'emergenza sanitaria, quando si è imposta la necessità di interrogarsi sulle conseguenze sociali di quanto stava accadendo nelle residenze per anziani. Quali effetti aveva sugli ospiti l'interruzione dei contatti con l'esterno? E come hanno fatto gli operatori a non smarrire il senso relazionale del lavoro di cura? A queste e ad altre domande le autrici rispondono esponendo il disegno e la metodologia della ricerca e i dati ricavati dalle interviste a residenti, operatori e familiari; i risultati sono poi commentati dal sindacato, che illustra il proprio ruolo di sostegno e riflette, alla luce delle drammatiche esperienze recenti, sui possibili sviluppi dei servizi assistenziali. L'attenzione all'attualità e la prospettiva empirica e progettuale fanno del volume una lettura di sicuro interesse per operatori sociali e ricercatori, ma anche per chiunque viva in prima persona le complessità dell'assistenza agli anziani
