    Abstract Aims: The main objective of this study was to compare extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) Escherichia coli fecal titers during 12 days between two groups: mice who received proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and those that did not.
    Methods and results: We tested three different in vivo models: model 1, high inoculum (106 CFU ml-1); model 2, low inoculum (102 CFU ml-1); and model 3, low inoculum and 2-day amoxicillin wash-out. There was no significant difference between the two groups in fecal ESBL E. coli titers in models 1 and 2. The fecal titers of ESBL E. coli were probably too high to show differences in colonization related to PPI treatment. By introducing a 2-day wash-out period after stopping amoxicillin (model 3), the fecal ESBL E. coli titers were higher in the PPI-treated mice during 12 days (3 log versus 11 log day CFU g-1; P < 0.05). This result highlighted that PPIs promote stable ESBL E. coli digestive carriage in mice. Fecal quantitative PCR showed that mice with low ESBL E. coli fecal titers had a much higher concentration of equol-producing bacteria, Muribaculum sp., and Adlercreutzia caecimuris.
    Conclusions: Pantoprazole treatment promotes sustained digestive carriage of ESBL E. coli in amoxicillin-treated mice.

  6. Article: In vitro and in vivo activity of new strains of Bacillus subtilis against ESBL‐producing Escherichia coli: an experimental study

    Abstract AIMS: The gastro‐intestinal tract is a major reservoir of extended‐spectrum beta‐lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli. Bacillus spores may be used as probiotics to decrease digestive colonization by ESBL‐E. coli. Our aim was to assess the in vitro and in vivo activity of new Bacillus strains against ESBL‐E. coli. METHODS AND RESULTS: We screened the in vitro activity of 50 Bacillus strains against clinical isolates of ESBL‐E. coli and selected B. subtilis strains CH311 and S3B. Both strains decreased ESBL‐E. coli titers by 4 log₁₀ CFU L⁻¹ in an in vitro model of gut content, whereas the B. subtilis CU1 strain did not. In a murine model of intestinal colonization by ESBL‐E. coli, CH311 and S3B did not decrease fecal titers of ESBL‐E. coli. Ten sequences of putative antimicrobial peptides were identified in the genomes of CH311 and S3B, but not in CU1. CONCLUSIONS: Two new B. subtilis strains showed strong in vitro activity against ESBL‐E. coli. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF STUDY: Despite strong in vitro activities of new B. subtilis strains against ESBL‐E. coli, intestinal colonisation was not altered by curative Bacillus treatment even if their spores proved to germinate in the gut. Thus, this work underlines the importance of in vivo experiments to identify efficient probiotics. The use of potential antimicrobial compounds identified by genome sequencing remains an attractive alternative to explore.

    Abstract Since the emergence of COVID-19, many publications have reported associations with ABO blood types. Despite between-study discrepancies, an overall consensus has emerged whereby blood group O appears associated with a lower risk of COVID-19, while non-O blood types appear detrimental. Two major hypotheses may explain these findings: First, natural anti-A and anti-B antibodies could be partially protective against SARS-CoV-2 virions carrying blood group antigens originating from non-O individuals. Second, O individuals are less prone to thrombosis and vascular dysfunction than non-O individuals and therefore could be at a lesser risk in case of severe lung dysfunction. Here, we review the literature on the topic in light of these hypotheses. We find that between-study variation may be explained by differences in study settings and that both mechanisms are likely at play. Moreover, as frequencies of ABO phenotypes are highly variable between populations or geographical areas, the ABO coefficient of variation, rather than the frequency of each individual phenotype is expected to determine impact of the ABO system on virus transmission. Accordingly, the ABO coefficient of variation correlates with COVID-19 prevalence. Overall, despite modest apparent risk differences between ABO subtypes, the ABO blood group system might play a major role in the COVID-19 pandemic when considered at the population level.

    Abstract OBJECTIVES: To search for new alkaliphilic cellulases and to improve their efficiency on crystalline cellulose through molecular engineering RESULTS: Two novel cellulases, BpGH9 and BpGH48, from a Bacillus pumilus strain were identified, cloned and biochemically characterized. BpGH9 is a modular endocellulase belonging to the glycoside hydrolase 9 family (GH9), which contains a catalytic module (GH) and a carbohydrate-binding module belonging to class 3 and subclass c (CBM3c). This enzyme is extremely tolerant to high alkali pH and remains significantly active at pH 10. BpGH48 is an exocellulase, belonging to the glycoside hydrolase 48 family (GH48) and acts on the reducing end of oligo-β1,4 glucanes. A truncated form of BpGH9 and a chimeric fusion with an additional CBM3a module was constructed. The deletion of the CBM3c module results in a significant decline in the catalytic activity. However, fusion of CBM3a, although in a non native position, enhanced the activity of BpGH9 on crystalline cellulose. CONCLUSIONS: A new alkaliphilic endocellulase BpGH9, was cloned and engineered as a fusion protein (CBM3a-BpGH9), which led to an improved activity on crystalline cellulose.
