Summary |
Carbapenem-resistantKlebsiella pneumoniae(CR-Kp) is significant threat to public health worldwide. The primary reservoir for CR-Kp is the intestinal tract, where the bacterium is usually present at low density, but can bloom following antibiotic treatment, mostly in hospital settings. The impact of disturbances in the intestinal environment on the fitness, survival, expansion, and drug susceptibility of this pathogen is not well-understood. Nevertheless, gaining such knowledge could lead to innovative intervention strategies for addressing colonization and infection. Here, we adopted anin vivomodel to examine the transcriptional adaptation of a CR-Kp clinical isolate to immune activation in the intestine. We report that as early as 6 hours following host treatment with anti-CD3 antibody, CR-Kp underwent rapid transcriptional changes including downregulation of genes involved in sugar utilization and amino acid biosynthesis, and upregulation of genes involved in amino acid uptake and catabolism, antibiotic resistance, and stress response. In agreement with these findings, the concentration of oxidative species and amino acids was increased in the mouse intestine following treatment. Genes encoding for proteins containing the domain of unknown function (DUF) 1471 were particularly upregulated, however their deletion did not impair CR-Kp fitness in vivoupon immune activation. Transcription factor enrichment analysis identified the global regulator cAMP-Receptor Protein CRP as a potential orchestrator of the observed transcriptional signature. In keeping with the recognized role of CRP in regulating utilization of alternative carbon sources, CRP deletion in CR-Kp resulted in strongly impaired gut colonization, but this effect was not amplified by immune activation. Thus, following intestinal colonization, which occurs in a CRP-dependent manner, CR-Kp can rapidly respond to immune cues by implementing a well-defined and complex transcriptional program whose direct relevance towards bacterial fitness remains cryptic. Further analyses utilizing this model may identify key factors to tackle the intestinal stage of CR-Kp colonization.

Overall design |
We investigated the molecular programs adopted by CR-Kp in the gut lumen and the relation of this pathobiont with the immune system. To do so, we performed trancriptional profiling using data obtained from intestinal CR-Kp ST-258 in mice subjected to acute immune activation. We also performed transcriptional profiling of the cecal tissue of these mice.
