    Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the greatest pandemic of our generation, with 16 million people affected and 650,000 deaths worldwide so far. One of the risk factors associated with COVID-19 is secondary bacterial pneumonia. In recent studies on COVID-19 patients, secondary bacterial infections were significantly associated with worse outcomes and death despite antimicrobial therapies. In the past, the intensive use of antibiotics during the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) pandemic led to increases in the prevalence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. The rising number of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and our decreasing capacity to eradicate them not only render us more vulnerable to bacterial infections but also weaken us during viral pandemics. The COVID-19 pandemic reminds us of the great health challenges we are facing, especially regarding antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

    Abstract Background: Staphylococcus aureus
    Methods: Seven strains of
    Results: Lipoteichoic acid release varied by 4-fold amongst the clinical strains and appeared to be related to duration of bacteremia, independent of MLST type. Low LTA releasing strains were isolated from patients who had prolonged duration of bacteremia and died. Antibiotic-mediated differences in LTA release appeared to be associated with MLST type, as ST8 strains released maximal LTA in response to tedizolid while other non-ST8 strains demonstrated high LTA release with vancomycin. Genetic variations related to the LTA biosynthesis pathway were detected in all non-ST8 strains, though ST8 strains showed no variations despite demonstrating differential LTA release.
    Conclusion: Our findings provide the basis for future studies to evaluate the relationship between LTA release-mediated host immune response and clinical outcomes as well as the potential for antibiotic modulation of LTA release as a therapeutic strategy and deserve confirmation with larger number of strains with known clinical phenotypes.

    Abstract The antibiotic cefiderocol hijacks iron transporters to facilitate its uptake and resists β-lactamase degradation. While effective, resistance has been detected clinically with unknown mechanisms. Here, using experimental evolution, we identified cefiderocol resistance mutations in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Resistance was multifactorial in host-mimicking growth media, led to multidrug resistance and paid fitness costs in cefiderocol-free environments. However, kin selection drove some resistant populations to cross-protect susceptible individuals from killing by increasing pyoverdine secretion via a two-component sensor mutation. While pyochelin sensitized P. aeruginosa to cefiderocol killing, pyoverdine and the enterobacteria siderophore enterobactin displaced iron from cefiderocol, preventing uptake by susceptible cells. Among 113 P. aeruginosa intensive care unit clinical isolates, pyoverdine production directly correlated with cefiderocol tolerance, and high pyoverdine producing isolates cross-protected susceptible P. aeruginosa and other Gram-negative bacteria. These in vitro data show that antibiotic cross-protection can occur via degradation-independent mechanisms and siderophores can serve unexpected protective cooperative roles in polymicrobial communities.
