项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Tuberculosis continues to pose a threat to public health, and resistance to commonly used antibiotics is an increasingly prevalent problem in efforts to control this disease. Thus, there is a great need to develop new drugs and therapeutic strategies. Mycobacteria display intrinsic resistance to antibiotics due to the low permeability of the mycobacterial cell wall and active efflux of antibiotics. An understanding of drug efflux systems role in intrinsic antibiotic resistance and their regulation will lead to new therapeutic approaches to TB since inhibition of these intrinsic systems may improve the efficacy of current drugs and shorten treatment time. Previously we showed that ubiquitin-derived peptides (Ub-peptides) contribute the mycobactericidal repertoire of macrophages (Alonso et al., 2007; Purdy et al., 2009). Our first objective is to better understand the bactericidal actions of these peptides. Initial studies indicate that Ub-peptides behave like antimicrobial peptides to impair mycobacterial membrane function. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has co-evolved with the human immune response and likely possesses resistance mechanisms to sub-lethal concentrations of host antimicrobial compounds. In modern disease, these systems may provide intrinsic resistance to antibiotics. To identify Mtb intrinsic resistance mechanisms, two complementary approaches were taken using mycobactericidal Ub-peptides as a tool. 1.) We directly identified ABC and MFS transporter mutants more susceptible to treatment with Ub-peptides in a transposon mutant screen. 2.) The expression profile of Mtb exposed to Ub-peptides was analyzed. Ten percent of Ub-peptide regulated genes encoded predicted membrane proteins including ATP Binding Cassette (ABC) or Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) transport systems. These differentially expressed genes alter the bacterial response to the presence of antimicrobial peptides and antibiotics. To show this we acquired Mtb mutants that lack ABC and MFS transporters and found that they are more susceptible to antimicrobial peptides and antibiotics. Our working hypothesis is that Ub- peptides are host antimicrobial peptides and that Mtb ABC and MFS membrane transport systems contribute to Mtb intrinsic antimicrobial resistance and virulence. The long-term goal of this work will direct therapeutic targeting of these membrane transport systems to increase the inherent sensitivity of Mtb to host antimicrobial compounds and antibiotic treatment. Our aims are the following: 1) We will characterize the mechanism of Ub-peptide action. 2) To better understand intrinsic resistance of Mtb we will define the role of the ABC transporters Pst and Rv0986-Rv0987, and the MFS transporters Rv1634, and Rv3239c in the intrinsic resistance of Mtb. 3) We will determine if these ABC and MFS transporters contribute to M. tuberculosis virulence through macrophage survival assays and mouse infections. These studies will expand our knowledge of M. tuberculosis intrinsic resistance to antimicrobial Ub-peptides and antibiotics, and will identify targets for future drug therapy approaches.
描述(由申请人提供):结核病继续对公众健康构成威胁,对常用抗生素的耐药性是控制这种疾病的努力中日益普遍的问题。因此,非常需要开发新的药物和治疗策略。由于分枝杆菌细胞壁的低渗透性和抗生素的主动外排,分枝杆菌显示出对抗生素的内在抗性。了解药物外排系统在内在抗生素耐药性中的作用及其调节将导致新的结核病治疗方法,因为抑制这些内在系统可能会提高当前药物的疗效并缩短治疗时间。 先前我们表明,泛素衍生肽(Ub-肽)有助于巨噬细胞的杀分枝杆菌谱(Alonso et al.,2007; Purdy等人,2009年)。我们的第一个目标是更好地了解这些肽的杀菌作用。初步研究表明,Ub-肽的行为像抗菌肽,损害分枝杆菌膜功能。结核分枝杆菌(Mtb)与人类免疫反应共同进化,可能对亚致死浓度的宿主抗菌化合物具有抗性机制。在现代疾病中,这些系统可能提供对抗生素的内在抗性。为了鉴定Mtb内在耐药机制,采用两种互补的方法,使用杀分枝杆菌Ub肽作为工具。1.)的人。我们直接确定了ABC和MFS转运蛋白突变体更易受治疗的转座子突变体筛选与Ub-肽。2.)的情况。分析暴露于Ub-肽的Mtb的表达谱。10%的Ub肽调控基因编码预测的膜蛋白,包括ATP结合盒(ABC)或主要易化因子超家族(MFS)转运系统。这些差异表达的基因改变了细菌对抗菌肽和抗生素的反应。为了证明这一点,我们获得了缺乏ABC和MFS转运蛋白的Mtb突变体,并发现它们对抗菌肽和抗生素更敏感。我们的工作假设是Ub-肽是宿主抗微生物肽,并且Mtb ABC和MFS膜转运系统有助于Mtb内在的抗微生物抗性和毒力。这项工作的长期目标将指导这些膜转运系统的治疗靶向,以增加结核分枝杆菌对宿主抗微生物化合物和抗生素治疗的固有敏感性。 我们的目标是:1)我们将描述的机制,UB肽的行动。2)为了更好地理解Mtb的内在抗性,我们将定义ABC转运蛋白Pst和Rv 0986-Rv 0987以及MFS转运蛋白Rv 1634和Rv 3239 c在Mtb的内在抗性中的作用。3)我们将确定这些ABC和MFS转运蛋白是否有助于M。通过巨噬细胞存活测定和小鼠感染的结核毒力。这些研究将扩大我们对M.结核病对抗菌肽和抗生素的内在耐药性,并将确定未来药物治疗方法的目标。
