Abstract
Pandoraea spp. are gram-negative, nonfermenting rods mainly known to infect patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Outbreaks have been reported from several CF centers. We report a Pandoraea spp. outbreak comprising 24 non-CF patients at a large university hospital and a neighboring heart center in Germany during July 2019-December 2021. Common features in the patients were critical illness, invasive ventilation, antimicrobial pretreatment, and preceding surgery. Complicated and relapsing clinical courses were observed in cases with intraabdominal infections but not those with lower respiratory tract infections. Genomic analysis of 15 isolates identified Pandoraea commovens as the genetically most similar species and confirmed the clonality of the outbreak strain, designated P. commovens strain LB-19-202-79. The strain exhibited resistance to most antimicrobial drugs except ampicillin/sulbactam, imipenem, and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. Our findings suggest Pandoraea spp. can spread among non-CF patients and underscore that clinicians and microbiologists should be vigilant in detecting and assessing unusual pathogens.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by chronic airway infection and progressive respiratory decline. Historically, a narrow spectrum of bacterial pathogens was believed to comprise the bulk of respiratory infections in CF, with Haemophilus influenzae and Staphylococcus aureus dominating childhood infections, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa or, less commonly, a member of the Burkholderia cepacia complex becoming the dominant infecting organism in adulthood. Today, the landscape is changing for airway infection in CF. The prevalence of "less typical" gram-negative bacterial infections are rising due to a number of factors: the CF population is aging; new therapies are being introduced; antibiotic usage is increasing; diagnostic tests are evolving; and taxonomic changes are being made as new bacterial species are being discovered. Less is known about the clinical relevance and evidence for treatment strategies for many of the other lower prevalence organisms that are encountered in CF. The aim of this article was to discuss the current evidence and recommended strategies for treating airway infection in CF, focusing on bacterial infections.

Clinical and microbiological features of obstructive cholangitis with bloodstream infection caused by Pandoraea apista identified by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and ribosomal RNA sequencing in a cancer patient. BMC Infect Dis 2022; 22:529. [PMID: 35672730 PMCID: PMC9171735 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-022-07514-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Pandoraea species are multidrug-resistant glucose-nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli that are usually isolated from patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and from water and soil. Reports of diseases, including bloodstream infections, caused by Pandoraea spp. in non-CF patients are rare, and the clinical and microbiological characteristics are unclear. The identification of Pandorea spp. is limited by conventional microbiological methods and may be misidentified as other species owing to overlapping biochemical profiles. Here, we report the first case of obstructive cholangitis with bacteremia caused by Pandoraea apista in a patient with advanced colorectal cancer. A 61-year-old man with advanced colorectal cancer who underwent right nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma 4 years earlier with well-controlled diabetes mellitus was admitted to our hospital with fever for 2 days. The last chemotherapy (regorafenib) was administered approximately 3 weeks ago, and an endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepaticogastrostomy was performed 2 weeks ago under hospitalization for obstructive jaundice. Two days prior, he presented with fever with chills. He was treated with piperacillin-tazobactam for obstructive cholangitis and showed improvement but subsequently presented with exacerbation. Bacterial isolates from the blood and bile samples were identified as P. apista using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing. Based on the susceptibility results of the isolates, he was successfully treated with oral trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole 160 mg/800 mg/day for 14 days for P. apista infection. Conclusions Pandoraea species are often misidentified. Therefore, multiple approaches should be used to identify them, and decisions regarding antimicrobial treatment should be based on actual in vitro susceptibility. Only seven cases of Pandoraea spp. bloodstream infections have been reported, and we report the first case of cholangitis with bacteremia.

Abstract
This research was aimed to evaluate the phytochemical profile, bactericidal activity of Hygrophila spinosa against multidrug resistant Pandoraea sputorum and assess their antioxidant competence against various radicals and studied their hepatoprotective and nephroprotective activity on HepG2 and HEK 293 cell line. The results showed that the methanol extract has various phytochemical components with reasonable quantity. Fortunately, the multidrug-resistant P. sputorum was sensitive (22.8 ± 0.2 mm of the zone of inhibition) at 15 mg mL-1 concentration of methanol extract. The higher concentration of phenolic and other phytochemical components, showed significant antioxidant activity against ferric, DPPH, hydroxyl, and ABTS radicals, with IC50 values of 71.09, 64.333, 91.157, and 104.931 g mL-1, respectively. Surprisingly, the methanol extract possesses hepato and nephroprotective activity against CCl4 and cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity on HepG2 and HEK 293 cell lines, respectively. It maintains the cell viability as up to 90.48% and 90.35% of HepG2 and EK 293 cell line at the concentration of 20 μg mL-1. The FTIR analysis states that the methanol extract possesses a significant functional group responsible for these multi-potential activities. These results suggest that, the methanol extract of H. spinosa might contain the most significant bioactive components with outstanding medicinal properties.

Abstract
Aim: Genetic characterization of Pandoraea strains recovered from cystic fibrosis patients. Materials & methods: The whole-genome sequence of 12 Pandoraea strains was determined using Illumina technology. The position of the strains within the genus Pandoraea was analyzed using selected partial gene sequences, core genome multi-locus sequence typing and average nucleotide identity analysis. Furthermore, the sequences were annotated. Results: The results show that some strains previously identified as Pandoraea pnomenusa, Pandoraea sputorum, Pandoraea oxalativorans and Pandoraea pulmonicola belong to novel species. The strains did not harbor acquired antibiotic resistance genes but encoded an OXA-type ß-lactamase. Conclusion: The taxonomy of the genus Pandoraea needs to be revised.

Comparative Genomics of Pandoraea, a Genus Enriched in Xenobiotic Biodegradation and Metabolism. Front Microbiol 2019; 10:2556.

Abstract
Comparative analysis of partial gyrB, recA, and gltB gene sequences of 84 Pandoraea reference strains and field isolates revealed several clusters that included no taxonomic reference strains. The gyrB, recA, and gltB phylogenetic trees were used to select 27 strains for whole-genome sequence analysis and for a comparative genomics study that also included 41 publicly available Pandoraea genome sequences. The phylogenomic analyses included a Genome BLAST Distance Phylogeny approach to calculate pairwise digital DNA–DNA hybridization values and their confidence intervals, average nucleotide identity analyses using the OrthoANIu algorithm, and a whole-genome phylogeny reconstruction based on 107 single-copy core genes using bcgTree. These analyses, along with subsequent chemotaxonomic and traditional phenotypic analyses, revealed the presence of 17 novel Pandoraea species among the strains analyzed, and allowed the identification of several unclassified Pandoraea strains reported in the literature. The genus Pandoraea has an open pan genome that includes many orthogroups in the ‘Xenobiotics biodegradation and metabolism’ KEGG pathway, which likely explains the enrichment of these species in polluted soils and participation in the biodegradation of complex organic substances. We propose to formally classify the 17 novel Pandoraea species as P. anapnoica sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31117T = CCUG 73385T), P. anhela sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31108T = CCUG 73386T), P. aquatica sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31011T = CCUG 73384T), P. bronchicola sp. nov. (type strain LMG 20603T = ATCC BAA-110T), P. capi sp. nov. (type strain LMG 20602T = ATCC BAA-109T), P. captiosa sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31118T = CCUG 73387T), P. cepalis sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31106T = CCUG 39680T), P. commovens sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31010T = CCUG 73378T), P. communis sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31110T = CCUG 73383T), P. eparura sp. nov. (type strain LMG 31012T = CCUG 73380T), P. horticolens sp. nov.

Abstract
Pandoraea sputorum (P. sputorum), an emerging pathogen, is able to trigger a pronounced pro-inflammatory response that results in lung dysfunction in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. All previous P. sputorum isolates have been obtained from the respiratory samples of CF patients, with no reported cases of P. sputorum bacteremia. For the first time, we report P. sputorum isolates recovered twice from the blood cultures of a patient with liver cancer who had undergone allogeneic liver transplantation. These isolates were successfully identified by combining mass spectrometry and molecular techniques based on 16S rRNA sequencing methods. At the onset of the P. sputorum bacteremia, the patient’s peripheral T, B and NK cell counts were 181.68/μL, 59.57/μL and 70.66/μL, respectively. The serum procalcitonin level, C-reactive protein level and peripheral neutrophil granulocyte percentage were 0.56 ng/mL, 61.00 mg/L and 96.8%, respectively. We found these isolates to be susceptible to ciprofloxacin and piperacillin/tazobactam and to be intermediate to amikacin. Previous studies have found P. sputorum isolates to be resistant. All of the data combined showed that compromised immune function from allogeneic liver transplantation plus immunosuppressive therapy contributes to the occurrence of P. sputorum bacteremia. Furthermore, the P. sputorum isolates demonstrated characteristic resistance profiles.

Abstract
Background Pandoraea species is a newly described genus, which is multidrug resistant and difficult to identify. Clinical isolates are mostly cultured from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. CF is a rare disease in China, which makes Pandoraea a total stranger to Chinese physicians. Pandoraea genus is reported as an emerging pathogen in CF patients in most cases. However, there are few pieces of evidence that confirm Pandoraea can be more virulent in non-CF patients. The pathogenicity of Pandoraea genus is poorly understood, as well as its treatment. The incidence of Pandoraea induced infection in non-CF patients may be underestimated and it’s important to identify and understand these organisms. Case presentation We report a 44-years-old man who suffered from pneumonia and died eventually. Before his condition deteriorated, a Gram-negative bacilli was cultured from his sputum and identified as Pandoraea Apista by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Conclusion Pandoraea spp. is an emerging opportunistic pathogen. The incidences of Pandoraea related infection in non-CF patients may be underestimated due to the difficulty of identification. All strains of Pandoraea show multi-drug resistance and highly variable susceptibility. To better treatment, species-level identification and antibiotic susceptibility test are necessary.

Abstract
Background Pandoraea species are gram negative, motile, non-spore forming, rod shaped and oxidase positive, obligate aerobes bacteria, and have one polar flagellum. Most of Pandoraea species are associated with lung infections in cystic fibrosis patients. Cystic fibrosis is the most prevalent autosomal recessive hereditary disease in the world that affects various organs of the body. The main important cause of death in these patients is lung involvement. This study was conducted to isolate and identify Pandoraea bacterium from bronchoalveolar lavage and sputum samples of cystic fibrosis patients in Shiraz, Iran. Methods In this research 31 samples of bronchoalveolar lavage and sputum were examined by culture and PCR method. Then confirmed isolates were evaluated for susceptibility to different antibiotics and ability to produce biofilm. Results The results of this study after cultivation, purification and DNA extraction led to the isolation of 4 Pandoraea bacterium by PCR using specific primers. Antibiotic susceptibility test were indicated all isolates were resistant to gentamicin, amikacin and imipenem and susceptible to ciprofloxacin, trimethoprim-sulfumethoxazole, piperacillin and tetracycline. Ability to create biofilm was indicated by some of Pandoraea isolates. According to findings of this study, ability to synthesis biofilm by Pandoraea isolates and resistance to some antibiotics are very important. Conclusions Our study notes the role of P. pnomenusa as an emerging pathogen that can cause chronic lung colonization in CF patients. Identification tools need to be accurate and must be based on molecular techniques. Also our findings should raise awareness about antibiotic resistance in cystic fibrosis patients in Iran and ability of including bacterial agents to produce biofilm is an alarm for public health. Thus clinicians should exercise caution about finding of clinical relevance of this pathogen to the infection and prescribing antibiotics, especially in cases of children infections.

Abstract
Bacteria belonging to the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) are among the most important pathogens isolated from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and in hospital acquired infections (HAI). Accurate identification of Bcc is questionable by conventional biochemical methods. Clonal typing of Burkholderia is also limited due to the problem with identification. Phenotypic identification methods such as VITEK2, protein signature identification methods like VITEK MS, Bruker Biotyper, and molecular targets such as 16S rRNA, recA, hisA and rpsU were reported with varying level of discrimination to identify Bcc. rpsU and/or 16S rRNA sequencing, VITEK2, VITEK MS and Bruker Biotyper could discriminate between Burkholderia spp. and non-Burkholderia spp. Whereas, Bcc complex level identification can be given by VITEK MS, Bruker Biotyper, and 16S rRNA/rpsU/recA/hisA sequencing. For species level identification within Bcc hisA or recA sequencing are reliable. Identification of Bcc is indispensable in CF patients and HAI to ensure appropriate antimicrobial therapy.

Díez-Aguilar M, Ekkelenkamp M, Morosini MI, Merino I, de Dios Caballero J, Jones M, van Westreenen M, Tunney MM, Cantón R, Fluit AC. Antimicrobial susceptibility of non-fermenting Gram-negative pathogens isolated from cystic fibrosis patients. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2018; 53:84-88. [PMID: 30240837 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2018.09.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2018] [Revised: 09/01/2018] [Accepted: 09/09/2018] [Indexed: 10/28/2022]
Abstract
Non-fermenting Gram-negative bacteria (NFGNB) are increasingly cultured in respiratory samples from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. This study determined the antimicrobial susceptibility of clinical CF respiratory isolates from distinct geographical regions. A total of 286 isolates (106 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, 100 Burkholderia spp., 59 Achromobacter spp., 12 Pandoraea spp., 9 Ralstonia spp.) from the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, Spain, USA and Australia were tested. MIC50/90 values and susceptibility categorisation were determined. Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (SXT) was the most active compound for all micro-organisms (MIC50, 0.12-4 mg/L; MIC90, 1-16 mg/L). For S. maltophilia, 47% and 62% of isolates were susceptible to SXT according to CLSI and EUCAST breakpoints, respectively. Ceftazidime presented lower susceptibility (35%; MIC50, 32 mg/L; MIC90, 256 mg/L). MIC90 values for tobramycin and colistin were >128 mg/L and >16 mg/L, respectively. Regarding Burkholderia, 72%, 56% and 44% were susceptible to SXT, ceftazidime and meropenem, respectively. For both ceftazidime and meropenem, MIC50 and MIC90 values were within the intermediate or resistant category. The most active antibiotics for Achromobacter spp. were SXT (MIC50, 0.5 mg/L; MIC90, 8 mg/L) and imipenem (MIC50, 2 mg/L; MIC90, 8 mg/L). SXT, imipenem and ciprofloxacin were active against 12 Pandoraea spp. (MIC50, 0.12-4 mg/L; MIC90, 1-8 mg/L). Ciprofloxacin (MIC50, 4 mg/L) and SXT (MIC50, 1 mg/L) were the only active antibiotics for Ralstonia spp. There were no statistically significant differences in susceptibility rates between countries. NFGNB other than Pseudomonas aeruginosa are potential pathogens in CF. SXT was demonstrated to be the most active compound against these isolates.

Abstract
Several environmental bacteria are considered as opportunistic pathogens in cystic fibrosis (CF) and are able to persistently colonize the CF respiratory tract (CFRT). Beside Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Burkholderia cepacia complex, Pandoraea spp. are defined as pathogenic. During chronic colonization, adaptive evolution and diversified population have been demonstrated, notably for P. aeruginosa. However, the persistence of Pandoraea in the CFRT remains largely unexplored. We studied genomic and phenotypic traits of Pandoraea pulmonicola isolates successively recovered from the airways of a single CF patient and relate the results to qualitative and quantitative evolution of other cultivable pathogens and to patient clinical status. A total of 31 isolates recovered from 18 sputum samples over a 7-year period in a single CF patient were studied. Genome dynamics was assessed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, ERIC-PCR fingerprinting and 16S rRNA gene PCR-temporal temperature gel electrophoresis. Phenotypic features included antimicrobial susceptibility, motility, biofilm production, and virulence in Caenorhabditis elegans model. Variability was observed for all the characteristics studied leading to highly diversified patterns (24 patterns) for the 31 clonally related isolates. Some of these modifications, mainly genomic events were concomitantly observed with CFRT microbiota composition shifts and with severe exacerbations. The diversity of P. pulmonicola population studied, observed for isolates recovered from successive samples but also within a sample suggested that existence of a diversified population may represent a patho-adaptive strategy for host persistence in the heterogeneous and fluctuating CFRT environment.
