结核杆菌的药物外排泵

外排泵基因过度表达促使细胞内的药物转移到细胞外,胞内药物浓度下降,致使药物临床疗效降低或无效。外排泵上有多个与识别底物结构无关的阴离子凹穴(底物结合位点),通过静电引力非特异性结合各种含阳离子的药物,在能量协助下将药物排到细胞外,进而导致细菌抗药性的产生。研究表明,结核杆菌基因组中存在外排泵基因,但仅分离到几个有功效的外排泵。本文就相关研究进展进行综述。

革兰氏阴性菌AcrAB-TolC多药外排泵结构数据对抑制剂研发的启示

革兰氏阴性菌的多重耐药性已成为全球广泛聚焦的问题。近年研究发现,耐药结节细胞分化(resistance-nodulation-cell division,RND)家族外排泵的过表达,与革兰氏阴性菌的多重耐药性密切相关。在RND家族中,广泛存在于革兰氏阴性菌中的AcrAB-TolC外排泵被认为是导致多重耐药性的主要原因之一。为了开发有效的抑制剂,需要对AcrAB-TolC外排泵的结构有一个清晰的认识。以往对该外排泵结构的研究主要局限于体外采用X射线晶体学技术或冷冻电镜单颗粒分析技术来解析其单个组分或全泵的结构。细胞冷冻电子断层扫描技术为揭示AcrAB-TolC外排泵在天然细胞膜环境中的组装和运行机制提供了新的见解,本文综述了AcrAB-TolC不同层级的结构数据在研发外排泵抑制剂方面的贡献。

Comparative proteome analysis of the outer membrane proteins of in vitro-induced multi-drug resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Antimicrobial-resistant gonococcus has been a major problem in sexually transmitted disease control . Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Neisseria gonorrhoeae were suggested to have influence on its resistance to antibiotics. So, in this work, we provide a proteomic analysis tool for examining the OMPs of N. gonorrhoeae and also provide a comparative analysis of the OMPs between the susceptible parent strain (92WT) and the resistance-induced isogenic mutant (92mu13) to determine the OMPs responsible for resistance. The 2-D gel spots of 92mu13 differed from 92WT particularly in porin, pilus secretion protein (PilQ) and enzymes. PilQ expression in 92mu13 was considerably reduced by abrupt termination at nucleotide 2,112. This made it difficult to form a high molecular mass (HMM) pore at the outer membrane; it is suspected that reduction of PilQ serves a role in antibiotic resistance in N. gonorrhoeae. The amount of porin was not changed but its isoelectric point (pI) shifted to a basic region, which is caused by the alteration of an amino acid of porin and it is suggested to relate to the development of antimicrobial resistance . Differential regulation of the enzymes involved in metabolism was found in 92mu13, believed to represent an adaptation of N. gonorrhoeae to the antibiotic environment.

2010年广州地区淋球菌耐药监测结果分析

The genome of Neisseria gonorrhoeae retains the remnants of a two-component regulatory system that once controlled piliation

An intact activator-binding site upstream of the sigma(54) promoter of the pilin-encoding pilE gene of Neisseria gonorrhoeae suggests gonococci produce a protein capable of binding this sequence. We cloned a chimeric gene, rsp, that has sequence similarity to both the pilS and pilR genes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa encoding a two-component regulatory system that controls piliation. This gene is transcribed in N. gonorrhoeae and indirect evidence suggests that Rsp binds to the activator-binding site of the pilE gene. Despite this, mutation of rsp has no effect on piliation in N. gonorrhoeae, suggesting that the remnants of this regulatory system have persisted in the genome, despite the loss of its original function.     

126株淋病奈瑟菌耐药性分析及其所致感染的中西医结合治疗

Competition between Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Staphylococcus epidermidis during iron-limited or replete continuous culture

Neisseria gonorrhoeae strain P9-2 was grown in iron-limited or replete continuous culture at a dilution rate of 0.05 h-1, in the presence and absence of Staphylococcus epidermidis. Gonococci maintained expression of pili (P+) and the transparent colony phenotype in pure culture during transitions of iron- and cystine-limited growth. They competed well with staphylococci during iron-limited co-culture and comprised greater than 95% of the population. Transition to cystine-limited growth allowed the staphylococcus to predominate but the gonococcus did not wash out. Furthermore, the gonococcal opaque colony phenotype (O+), indicating synthesis of outer membrane proteins II, was now expressed. Restoration of iron limitation returned the co-culture to its original composition but with P+O+ gonococci dominating. These results suggest that environments might exist in Man where gonococci can compete successfully with normal indigenous bacteria during infection.     

Lethal activity of miconazole in Neisseria gonorrhoeae grown in pure and mixed cultures

Abstract Low concentrations (e.g. 2 × 10⁻⁶ M) of an imidazole derivative anti-fungal agent, miconazole, were lethal for the Gram-negative, facultative aerobic pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae grown either alone or in mixed culture with the yeast Candida albicans . Electron microscopic observation of Neisseria cells exposed to miconazole showed the presence of blebs in the outer wall and areas of separation between the wall and the cytoplasmic membrane. Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of cell lysates did not reveal differences in major outer membrane proteins between the treated and the untreated cells of any one strain. Imidazole derivatives are frequently used in the treatment of candidiasis. Our in vitro results show that low concentrations of one of them, miconazole, can be bactericidal for N. gonorrhoeae , a bacterium that can colonise sites of the human body where Candida is often found.
