Microbiome-derived antimicrobial peptides show therapeutic activity against the critically important priority pathogen, Acinetobacter baumannii.
Acinetobacter baumannii is designated by the World Health Organisation as a critical priority pathogen. Previously we discovered antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), namely Lynronne-1, -2 and -3, with efficacy against bacterial pathogens, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Here we assessed Lynronne-1, -2 and -3 structure by circular dichroism and efficacy against clinical strains of A. baumannii. All Lynronne AMPs demonstrated alpha-helical secondary structures and had antimicrobial activity towards all tested strains of A. baumannii (Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations 2-128 μg/ml), whilst also having anti-biofilm activity. Lynronne-2 and -3 demonstrated additive effects with amoxicillin and erythromycin, and synergy with gentamicin. The AMPs demonstrated little toxicity towards mammalian cell lines or Galleria mellonella. Fluorescence-based assay data demonstrated that Lynronne-1 and -3 had higher membrane-destabilising action against A. baumannii in comparison with Lynronne-2, which was corroborated by transcriptomic analysis. For the first time, we demonstrate the therapeutic activity of Lynronne AMPs against A. baumannii.
期刊介绍:
npj Biofilms and Microbiomes is a comprehensive platform that promotes research on biofilms and microbiomes across various scientific disciplines. The journal facilitates cross-disciplinary discussions to enhance our understanding of the biology, ecology, and communal functions of biofilms, populations, and communities. It also focuses on applications in the medical, environmental, and engineering domains. The scope of the journal encompasses all aspects of the field, ranging from cell-cell communication and single cell interactions to the microbiomes of humans, animals, plants, and natural and built environments. The journal also welcomes research on the virome, phageome, mycome, and fungome. It publishes both applied science and theoretical work. As an open access and interdisciplinary journal, its primary goal is to publish significant scientific advancements in microbial biofilms and microbiomes. The journal enables discussions that span multiple disciplines and contributes to our understanding of the social behavior of microbial biofilm populations and communities, and their impact on life, human health, and the environment.
