Abstract
Animal infection models play significant roles in studying bacterial pathogenic mechanisms, host pathogen interaction as well as evaluating drug and vaccine efficacies. We have been utilizing an acute pneumonia model to study bacterial colonization in lungs and assess virulence to the host by determination of bacterial loads and survival assays, as well as examine the bacterial gene expression in vivo. Additionally, the host's immune response to the pathogen can be explored through this infection model.
Background
Acute pneumonia is defined as an acute infection of the lungs by microbial pathogens. Hospital-acquired pneumonia, in particular, is often caused by multi-drug resistant pathogens and is difficult to treat. Common bacteria that cause pneumonia are Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pneumoniae, group A Streptococcus, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae,Staphylococcus aureus and Mycoplasma pneumonia (Ravi Kumar et al., 2018 ). To develop effective prevention and treatment strategies, it is critical to understand how bacteria sense and adapt to host in vivo environment and counteract host immune clearance. Currently, there are three types of pneumonia models: One hit acute pneumonia model, Ventilator-associated pneumonia model, and Agar-bead pneumonia model (Bielen et al., 2017). The model mentioned in this article belongs to the one hit acute pneumonia model. There are two methods for the infection, one is to inject bacterial suspension directly into the trachea or lungs. Here, we reported the other method in which bacteria are inoculated through nostrils, which is relatively easy to perform.
P. aeruginosa is a Gram negative opportunistic pathogenic bacterium that causes a variety of acute and chronic infections in human. It is one of the major pathogens that cause lung infections in patients with cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and compromised immunity (Talwalkar and Murray, 2016). To study the virulence factors and gene expression of P. aeruginosa in host, we utilized gene expression (Wu et al., 2012). Additionally, this model is suitable for examining the immune response of host (Tian et al., 2019). We have also applied this model to study the infections by K. pneumoniae and A. baumannii.
