Summary

该方法为研究将来自复杂宿主来源的外源脂肪酸结合到细菌膜中提供了一个框架,特别是金黄色葡萄球菌。为此,介绍了从鸡蛋蛋黄中浓缩脂蛋白颗粒的方案,以及利用质谱法对细菌磷脂进行随后脂肪酸分析的介绍。

Abstract

金黄色葡萄球菌和其他革兰氏阳性病原体将环境中的脂肪酸结合到膜磷脂中。在感染期间,大多数外源脂肪酸存在于宿主脂蛋白颗粒中。宿主脂肪酸的储存库以及细菌从脂蛋白颗粒中提取脂肪酸的机制仍存在不确定性。在这项工作中,我们描述了从鸡蛋蛋黄中浓缩低密度脂蛋白(LDL)颗粒的协议,并确定LD是否作为S.aureus的脂肪酸储存库。该方法利用无偏脂质学分析和鸡低密度脂蛋白,是探索低密度脂蛋白与细菌相互作用的有效经济模型。采用高分辨率/精确质谱法和串联质谱法对低密度脂蛋白中外源脂肪酸的S.氨基酸整合进行分析,从而对细菌的脂肪酸成分进行表征膜和无偏的鉴定在接触低密度脂蛋白时在细菌膜脂质中产生的脂肪酸的新组合。这些先进的质谱技术通过揭示并入磷脂中的特定外源脂肪酸,为脂肪酸的加入提供了无与伦比的视角。此处概述的方法适用于其他细菌病原体和复杂脂肪酸的替代来源的研究。

Introduction

耐甲氧西林(MRSA)是卫生保健相关感染的主要原因,相关的抗生素耐药性是一个相当大的临床挑战1,2,3。因此,制定新的治疗策略是重中之重。革兰氏阳性病原体的一个有前途的治疗策略是抑制脂肪酸合成,这是膜磷脂生产的要求,在S.aureus中,包括磷脂甘油(PG)、裂解-PG和心肌利平4。在细菌中,脂肪酸的产生通过脂肪酸合成II途径(FASII)5发生,这与真核对应物有很大不同,使得FASII成为抗生素开发5,6个有吸引力的靶点。.FASII抑制剂主要针对FabI,这是脂肪酸碳链伸长化所需的一种酶。FabI抑制剂三氯生被广泛用于消费品和医疗用品8,9。几家制药公司正在开发额外的FabI抑制剂,用于治疗10、11、12、13、14 ,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23 ,24,25,26.然而,许多革兰氏阳性病原体,包括S.aureus,能够清除外源脂肪酸的磷脂合成,绕过FASII抑制27,28,29。因此,FASII抑制剂的临床潜力是辩论的,因为我们对宿主脂肪酸的来源和病原体从宿主27、28中提取脂肪酸的机制的认识存在相当大的差距。为了弥补这些差距,我们开发了一种无偏脂质学分析方法,以监测脂蛋白颗粒中外源脂肪酸与S.aureus膜磷脂的合并情况。

在败血症期间,宿主脂蛋白颗粒是血管内宿主衍生脂肪酸的潜在来源,因为大多数宿主脂肪酸都与颗粒30相关。脂蛋白由亲水外壳组成,由磷脂和蛋白质组成,这些蛋白质包裹着甘油三酯和胆固醇酯疏水性核心31。四大类脂蛋白 – 奇洛美亚、极低密度脂蛋白、高密度脂蛋白和低密度脂蛋白 (LDL) – 由宿主生产,并充当脂质运输工具,提供脂肪酸和胆固醇。通过血管的宿主细胞。低密度脂蛋白富含酯化脂肪酸,包括甘油三酯和胆固醇酯31。我们之前已经证明,高度纯化的人类低密度脂蛋白是PG合成的外源脂肪酸的可行来源,从而为FASII抑制剂旁路32提供了机制。纯化人体低密度脂蛋白在技术上可能具有挑战性且耗时,而纯化人类低密度脂蛋白的商业来源在日常使用或进行大规模细菌筛选时成本高昂。为了解决这些限制,我们修改了从鸡蛋蛋黄中浓缩低密度脂蛋白的程序,鸡蛋蛋黄是脂蛋白颗粒33的丰富来源。我们已经成功地使用非目标,高分辨率/准确的质谱和串联质谱监测将人类LDL衍生脂肪酸结合到S.aureus32膜中。与先前报告的方法不同,这种方法可以量化三种主要葡萄球菌磷脂类型的单个脂肪酸异构体。油酸(18:1)是存在于所有宿主脂蛋白颗粒中的不饱和脂肪酸,很容易并入S.aureus磷脂29,30,32。金黄色葡萄球菌不能合成油酸29;因此,磷脂结合的油酸的数量建立在葡萄球菌膜29中存在宿主脂蛋白衍生脂肪酸。这些磷脂物种可以通过这里描述的最先进的质谱法来识别,在脂肪酸来源存在的情况下,为培养的S.aureus的膜组成提供了前所未有的分辨率。感染期间遭遇。

Discussion

Aureus将外源脂肪酸加入其膜磷脂27,32,43。使用外源性脂肪酸的磷脂合成绕过了FASII抑制,但也改变了膜27、32、44的生物物理特性。虽然将外源性脂肪酸纳入革兰氏阳性病原体磷脂是有据可查的,但在宿主脂肪酸储存库的身份和三种主要葡萄球菌磷脂类型?…
