ABSTRACT
Multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa has become one of global threat pathogens for human health due to insensitivity to antibiotics. Recently developed reprogramming metabolomics can identify biomarkers, and then, the biomarkers were used to revert the insensitivity and elevate antibiotic-mediated killing. Here, the methodology was used to study cefoperazone/sulbactam (SCF)-resistant P. aeruginosa (PA-RSCF) and identified reduced glycolysis and pyruvate cycle, a recent clarified cycle providing respiratory energy in bacteria, as the most key enriched pathways and the depressed glucose as one of the most crucial biomarkers. Further experiments showed that the depression of glucose was attributed to reduction of glucose transport. However, exogenous glucose reverted the reduction to elevate intracellular glucose via activating glucose transport. The elevated glucose fluxed to the glycolysis, pyruvate cycle, and electron transport chain to promote downstream proton motive force (PMF). Consistently, exogenous glucose did not promote SCF-mediated elimination but potentiated aminoglycosides-mediated killing since aminoglycosides uptake is PMF-dependent, where amikacin was the best one. The glucose-potentiated amikacin-mediated killing was effective to both lab-evolved PA-RSCF and clinical multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa. These results reveal the depressed glucose uptake causes the reduced intracellular glucose and expand the application of metabolome-reprogramming on selecting conventional antibiotics to achieve the best killing efficacy.
