Carvajal A, Kramer M, Argüello H. Salmonella Control in Swine: A Thoughtful Discussion of the Pre- and Post-Harvest Control Approaches in Industrialized Countries. Animals (Basel) 2024; 14:1035. [PMID: 38612274 PMCID: PMC11010990 DOI: 10.3390/ani14071035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 03/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Pork is among the major sources of human salmonellosis in developed countries. Since the 1990s, different surveys and cross-sectional studies, both national and international (i.e., the baseline studies performed in the European Union), have revealed and confirmed the widespread non-typhoidal Salmonella serotypes in pigs. A number of countries have implemented control programs with different approaches and degrees of success. The efforts could be implemented either at farms, in post-harvest stages, or both. The current review revises the current state of the art in Salmonella in swine, the control programs ongoing or conducted in the past, and their strengths and failures, with particular attention to the weight of pre- and post-harvest control and the implications that both have for the success of interventions or mitigation after outbreaks. This review provides a novel perspective on Salmonella control in swine, a matter that still includes uncertainties and room for improvement as a question of public health and One Health.

Animals (Basel) 2024; 14:789. [PMID: 38473174 DOI: 10.3390/ani14050789] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Pigs can be colonized with Salmonella enterica and become established carriers. However, the mechanisms of the host's response to Salmonella enterica infection are largely unclear. This study was constructed with the Salmonella enterica infection model in vitro using porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2). Transcriptome profiling of IPEC-J2 cells was carried out to characterize the effect of Salmonella enterica infection and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment, in which LPS-induced inflammation was a positive control. At first, Salmonella enterica infection increased the cell apoptosis rate and induced an inflammation response in IPEC-J2. Then, the up-regulated genes were enriched in metabolic pathways, such as those for bile secretion and mineral absorption, while down-regulated genes were enriched in immune-related pathways, such as the Toll-like receptor signaling and p53 signaling pathways. Moreover, we found 368 up-regulated genes and 101 down-regulated genes in common. Then, an integrative analysis of the transcriptomic profile under Salmonella enterica infection and LPS treatment was conducted, and eight up-regulated genes and one down-regulated gene were detected. Among them, AQP8 is one critical gene of the bile secretion pathway, and its mRNA and protein expression were increased significantly under Salmonella enterica infection and LPS treatment. Thus, the AQP8 gene and bile secretion pathway may be important in IPEC-J2 cells under Salmonella enterica infection or LPS treatment.

The Probiotic Potential and Metabolite Characterization of Bioprotective Bacillus and Streptomyces for Applications in Animal Production. Animals (Basel) 2024; 14:388. [PMID: 38338031 PMCID: PMC10854626 DOI: 10.3390/ani14030388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Probiotics are increasingly recognized for their potential in managing bacterial challenges in animal production. This study aimed to evaluate the probiotic potential of Bacillus and Streptomyces strains, specifically their bioprotective ability against Salmonella. In agar inhibition assays, these bacteria supported Salmonella-inhibition zones, ranging from 2.5 ± 0.5 to 6.3 ± 2.0 mm. Analyses of antimicrobial metabolites revealed their capacity to produce compounds with anti-Salmonella properties, except for Bacillus subtilis MLB2. When Salmonella was exposed to lyophilized metabolites, inhibition occurred in both liquid (at concentrations between 250 and 500 g/L) and solid cultures (at 500 g/L). To confirm their probiotic potential, the S. griseus and Bacillus strains underwent evaluations for antimicrobial resistance, bile salt tolerance, auto- and co-aggregation, pH resistance, and their ability to adhere to and inhibit Salmonella in Caco-2 cells. These assessments confirmed their probiotic potential. The probiotic strains were further encapsulated and subjected to simulated swine and poultry digestion. They demonstrated survival potential through the gastrointestinal tract and significantly reduced the Salmonella population. Thus, these strains exhibit considerable promise for producing biotechnological products aimed at controlling Salmonella in animal production. This approach ensures the health and hygiene of farming facilities, mitigates the spread of zoonotic bacteria, and contributes positively to public health.

Abstract
AIMS Disinfectants such as benzalkonium chloride (BC), extensively used in animal farms and food-processing industries, contribute to the development of adaptive and cross-resistance in foodborne pathogens, posing a serious threat to food safety and human health. The purpose of this study is to explore whether continuous exposure of Salmonella enterica serovar 1,4,[5],12:i:- (S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-) to sublethal concentrations of BC could result in acquired resistance to this agent and other environmental stresses (e.g. antibiotics, heat, and acid). METHODS AND RESULTS BC tolerance increased in all tested strains after exposure to gradually increasing concentrations of BC, with increases in minimum inhibitory concentrations between two and sixfold. The survival rate of BC-adapted strains was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than that of their wild-type (non-adapted) counterparts in lethal concentrations of BC. In addition, significant reductions (P < 0.05) in zeta potential were observed in BC-adapted strains compared to wild-type ones, indicating that a reduction in cell surface charge was a cause of adaptative resistance. More importantly, two BC-adapted strains exhibited increased antibiotic resistance to levofloxacin, ceftazidime, and tigecycline, while gene mutations (gyrA, parC) and antibiotic efflux-related genes (acrB, mdsA, mdsB) were detected by genomic sequencing analysis. Moreover, the tolerance of BC-adapted strains to heat (50, 55, and 60°C) and acid (pH 2.0, 2.5) was strain-dependent and condition-dependent. CONCLUSIONS Repeated exposure to sublethal concentrations of BC could result in the emergence of BC- and antibiotic-resistant S. 1,4,[5],12:i:- strains.

Prevalence and genetic diversity of multidrug-resistant Salmonella Typhimurium monophasic variant in a swine farm from China. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1200088. [PMID: 37396383 PMCID: PMC10311412 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1200088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Salmonella 4,[5],12:i:-, a monophasic variant of S. Typhimurium, has become a global serovar causing animal and human infections since its first emergence in the late 1980's. Several previous studies showed the increasing prevalence of S. 4,[5],12:i:- in China, most of which were from swine with multidrug resistance (MDR) profiles. However, the molecular characteristic and evolution of S. 4,[5],12:i:- in the same swine farm are still unknown. In this study, a total of 54 S. enterica strains were isolated from different fattening pigs aged 1, 3, and 6 months, most of which belonged to S. 4,[5],12:i:-. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that all 45 S. 4,[5],12:i:- strains belonged to ST34 and were further divided into two different ribosomal STs and nine different core-genome STs. Phylogenetic analysis of 286 S. 4,[5],12:i:- strains in China, including 241 from the EnteroBase Salmonella database, revealed the genetic diversity of S. 4,[5],12:i:- and indicated that S. 4,[5],12:i:- in this swine farm might have multiple origins. Three different IncHI2 plasmids carrying various resistance genes were characterized by nanopore sequencing and could be conjugated to Escherichia coli. The colistin resistance gene mcr-1 and ESBLs gene blaCTX - M-14 were co-located on the chromosome of one strain. The dynamic changes in antimicrobial resistance regions and transferability of IncHI2 plasmids, as well as the chromosomal location of resistance genes, facilitated the diversity of the antimicrobial resistance characteristics in S. 4,[5],12:i:-. Since the swine farm is regarded as the important reservoir of MDR S. 4,[5],12:i:-, the prevalence and evolution of S. 4,[5],12:i:- from swine farms to pig products and humans should be continually monitored.

Abstract
Salmonella is one of the most important foodborne zoonotic pathogens, causing global morbidity and mortality in both humans and animals. Due to the extensive use of antimicrobials in food-producing animals, the antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella has attracted increasing attention globally. There have been many reports concerning the antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella from food-producing animals, meats and the environment. However, few studies on Salmonella from food-producing animals have been reported in Chongqing municipality, China. The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence, serovar diversity, sequence types, and antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella isolated from livestock and poultry in Chongqing. Meanwhile, we also want to know the presence of β-lactamase genes, plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes and quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR) mutations of Salmonella isolates. A total of 129 Salmonella strains were recovered from 2,500 fecal samples at 41 farms from pigs, goats, beef cattle, rabbits, chickens, and ducks. Fourteen serovars were identified, with S. Agona and S. Derby being the dominant serovars. The 129 isolates had high resistance to doxycycline (87.6%), ampicillin (80.6%), tetracycline (79.8%), trimethoprim (77.5%), florfenicol (76.7%) chloramphenicol (72.9%), and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (71.3%), but were susceptible to cefepime. A total of 114 (88.4%) isolates showed multidrug resistant phenotypes. The prevalence of β-lactamase genes in Salmonella isolates was 89.9% (116/129), and among these isolates, 107 (82.9%) harbored blaTEM, followed by blaOXA (26, 20.2%), blaCTX-M (8, 6.2%), and blaCMY (3, 2.3%). In addition, qnrB, qnrD, qnrS, oqxA, oqxB, and aac(6')-Ib-cr were detected in 11, 2, 34, 34, 43, and 72 PMQR-producing isolates, respectively. Moreover, QRDR mutations were very common in PMQR-positive Salmonella isolates (97.2%, 70/72) with mutation(s) in parC or combinative mutations in gyrA and parC. More significantly, 32 extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolates were identified, and 62.5% of them were found to harbor one to four PMQR genes. Furthermore, 11 sequence types were identified from the isolates, and most of ESBL-producing isolates were attributed to ST34 (15.6%) and ST40 (62.5%). The coexistence of PMQR genes with β-lactamase genes and the extensive mutations in QRDR present in Salmonella isolates from food-producing animals suggest a potential threat to public health. Reasonable utilization and strict control strategies for antimicrobials in animal husbandry and animal treatment are necessary to reduce the emergence and dissemination of drug-resistant Salmonella isolates.

Abstract
Introduction The overuse of antibiotics has made public health and safety face a serious cisis. It is urgent to develop new clinical treatment methods to combat drug resistant bacteria to alleviate the health crisis. The efficiency of antibiotics is closely related to the metabolic state of bacteria. However, studies on fluoroquinolone resistant Salmonella are relatively rare. Methods CICC21484 were passaged in medium with and without sarafloxacin and obtain sarafloxacin- susceptible Salmonella Typhimurium (SAR-S) and sarafloxacin resistant Salmonella Typhimurium (SAR-R), respectively. Non-targeted metabolomics was used to analyze the metabolic difference between SAR-S and SAR-R. Then we verified that exogenous L-leucine promoted the killing effect of sarafloxacin in vitro, and measured the intracellular ATP, NADH and reactive oxygen species levels of bacteria. Gene expression was determined using Real Time quantitative PCR. Results We confirmed that exogenous L-leucine increased the killing effect of sarafloxacin on SAR-R and other clinically resistant Salmonella serotypes. Exogenous L-leucine stimulated the metabolic state of bacteria, especially the TCA cycle, which increased the working efficiency of the electron transfer chain and increased the intracellular NADH, ATP concentration, and reactive oxygen species level. Our results suggest that when the metabolism of drug-resistant bacteria is reprogrammed, the bactericidal effect of antibiotics improves. Discussion This study further enhances research in the anti-drug resistance field at the metabolic level and provides theoretical support for solving the current problem of sarafloxacin drug resistance, a unique fluoroquinolone drug for animals and indicating the potential of L-leucine as a new antibiotic adjuvant.

Abstract
Lactobacillus reuteri is a probiotic with bacteriostatic effects, which can effectively inhibit the activity of pathogens. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the inhibition of pathogens by L. reuteri in intestinal cells remains unclear. Using the porcine intestinal cell line IPEC-J2 as a model, we combined RNA-seq and ATAC-seq methods to delineate the porcine genome-wide changes in biological processes and chromatin accessibility in IPEC-J2 cells stimulated by Salmonella enterica BNCC186354, as well as L. reuteri ATCC 53608. Overall, we found that many porcine transcripts were altered after S. enterica BNCC186354 treatment, while L. reuteri ATCC 53608 treatment partially restored this alteration, such as salmonella infection and PI3K/AKT and MAPK pathways. Combined analysis of these two datasets revealed that 26 genes with similar trends overlapped between gene expression and chromatin accessibility. In addition, we identified potential host functional transcription factors (TFs), such as GATA1, TAL1, TBP, RUNX1, Gmeb1, Gfi1b, RARA, and RXRG, in IPEC-J2 cells that might play a critical role and are targeted by L. reuteri ATCC 53608. Moreover, we verified that PI3K/AKT, MAPK, and apoptosis pathways are potentially regulated by S. enterica BNCC186354 but restored by L. reuteri ATCC 53608. The PI3K/AKT pathway was activated by L. reuteri ATCC 53608, thereby potentially inhibiting S. enterica BNCC186354 infection. In conclusion, our data provide new insights into the expression pattern of functional genes and the epigenetic alterations in IPEC-J2 cells underlying the bacteriostatic action of L. reuteri ATCC 53608.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica is a widespread foodborne pathogen with concerning antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Waterfowl are a major source of Salmonella transmission, but there are few systematic studies on Salmonella prevalence in waterfowl species. In this study, 126 Salmonella isolates (65 collected in 2018–2020 and 61 collected in 2002–2005) were obtained from waterfowl samples in Sichuan, China. Their serotypes, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) types, and phenotypic and genotypic AMR profiles were systematically examined. The isolates were distributed in 7 serotypes, including serovars Enteritidis (46.0%), Potsdam (27.8%), Montevideo (7.9%), Cerro (6.3%), Typhimurium (4.8%), Kottbus (4.0%) and Apeyeme (3.2%). Their PFGE characteristics were diverse; all isolates were distributed in four groups (cutoff value: 60.0%) and 20 clusters (cutoff value: 80.0%). Moreover, all isolates were multidrug resistant, and high rates of AMR to lincomycin (100.0%), rifampicin (100.0%), sulfadiazine (93.7%), erythromycin (89.7%), ciprofloxacin (81.0%), and gentamicin (75.4%) were observed. Finally, 49 isolates were subjected to whole-genome sequencing, and a wide variety of AMR genes were found, including multiple efflux pump genes and specific resistance genes. Interestingly, the tet(A)/tet(B) and catII resistance genes were detected in only isolates obtained in the first collection period, while the gyrA (S83F, D87N and D87G) and gyrB (E466D) mutations were detected at higher frequencies in the isolates obtained in the second collection period, supporting the findings that isolates from different periods exhibited different patterns of resistance to tetracycline, chloramphenicol and nalidixic acid. In addition, various incompatible plasmid replicon fragments were detected, including Col440I, Col440II, IncFIB, IncFII, IncX1, IncX9, IncI1-I and IncI2, which may contribute to the horizontal transmission of AMR genes and provide competitive advantages. In summary, we demonstrated that the Salmonella isolates prevalent in Sichuan waterfowl farms exhibited diverse serotypes, multiple AMR phenotypes and genotypes, and AMR changes over time, indicating their potential risks to public health.

Antibiotic Resistance of Salmonella Typhimurium Monophasic Variant 1,4,[5],12:i:- in China: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11040532. [PMID: 35453283 PMCID: PMC9031511 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11040532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2022] [Revised: 04/12/2022] [Accepted: 04/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Antibiotic resistance in Salmonella is a global public health problem. Salmonella enterica serovar 1,4,[5],12:i:- (S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-), a monophasic variant of Salmonella Typhmurium, is one of the leading Salmonella serovars in several countries. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of antibiotic resistance to this serovar in China through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Nineteen eligible studies during 2011–2021 were included. A total of 4514 isolates from humans, animals, foods, and the environment were reported, which mainly concerned isolates found in Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangsu, and Shanghai. A random-effects model was used to estimate the pooled resistance rate of S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-. Rates were found to be very high (values ≥ 75%) for tetracycline, ampicillin, sulfisoxazole, and streptomycin; high (50–75%) for nalidixic acid, amoxicillin–clavulanic acid, and chloramphenicol; and moderate (25–50%) for trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole, kanamycin, trimethoprim, and gentamicin. The rates of resistance to ciprofloxacin, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, cefepime, ceftazidime, and colistin were low (values ≤ 25%), but of great concern in terms of their current clinical importance. Furthermore, a high multidrug resistance rate (86%, 95% CI: 78–92%) was present in S. 1,4,[5],12:i:-, with the ASSuT pattern largely dominating. Subgroup analysis results showed that the high heterogeneity of resistance rates was not entirely dependent on isolated sources. Taken together, the severity of antibiotic resistance in S. 1,4,[5],12:i:- urgently requires the rational use of antibiotics in future infection control and antibiotic stewardship programs.
