Proteomics-based discrimination of differentially expressed proteins in antibiotic-sensitive and antibiotic-resistant Salmonella Typhimurium, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Staphylococcus aureus

초록

This study was designed to compare the differentially expressed proteins between antibiotic-sensitive and antibiotic-resistant Salmonella Typhimurium, Klebsiella pneumonia, and Staphylococcus aureus. The susceptibilities of wild-type (WT), ciprofloxacin (CIP) and/or oxacillin (OXA)-induced, and clinically isolated resistant (CCARM) S. Typhimurium (STWT, STCIP, and STCCARM), K. pneumoniae (KPWT, KPCIP, and KPCCARM), and S. aureus (SA(WT), SA(CIP), SA(OXA), and SA(CCARM)) to antibiotics were determined using broth microdilution assay. STCIP was highly resistant to piperacillin (MIC > 512 mu g/ml), KPCIP was resistant to chloramphenicol (128 mu g/ml) and norfloxacin (16 mu g/ml), SA(CIP) was resistant to fluoroquinolones (32 mu g/ml), and SA(OXA) was resistant to ceftriaxone (32 mu g/ml). The protein profiles of antibiotic-sensitive and antibiotic-resistant strains were determined using 2-DE analysis followed by LC-MS/MS. The commonly expressed proteins of STWT-STCIP, STWT-STCCARM, KPWT-KPCIP, KPWT-KPCCARM, SA(WT)-SA(CIP), SA(WT)-SA(OXA), and SA(WT)-SA(CCARM) were 763, 677, 677, 469, 261, 259, and 226, respectively. The unique protein spots were observed 57 (6.5%), 80 (11.5%), and 68 (13.9%), respectively, for STCCARM, KPCCARM, and SA(CCARM). The highly up-regulated protein, PrsA (10-fold), was observed in STCIP resistant to ciprofloxacin (128-fold), levofloxacin (32-fold), norfloxacin (64-fold), and piperacillin (> 16-fold). The up-regulated proteins (YadC, FimA, and RplB) in KPCIP resistant to chloramphenicol (> 32-fold), ciprofloxacin (32-fold), levofloxacin (6-fold), norfloxacin (128-fold), and sparfloxacin (64-fold). AcrB and RpoB were up-regulated in SA(CCARM) resistant to multiple antibiotics. The differentially expressed proteins were related to the antibiotic resistance of STWT, STCIP, STCCARM, KPWT, KPCIP, KPCCARM, SA(WT), SA(CIP), SA(OXA), and SA(CCARM). The resistance-associated proteins could be useful biomarkers for detecting antibiotic-resistant pathogens.
