- W4200169144 abstract "Streptococcus pneumoniae is the leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia, resulting in more than one million deaths each year worldwide. This pathogen generates large amounts of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which will be converted to hypothiocyanous acid (HOSCN) by lactoperoxidase (LPO) in the human respiratory tract. S. pneumoniae has been shown to be more resistant to HOSCN than some bacteria, and sensitizing S. pneumoniae to HOSCN may be a novel treatment strategy for combating this deadly pathogen. In this study we investigated the role of the low molecular weight thiol glutathione in HOSCN resistance. S. pneumoniae does not synthesize glutathione but imports it from the environment via an ABC transporter. Upon treatment of S. pneumoniae with HOSCN, bacterial glutathione was reversibly oxidized in a time- and dose-dependent manner, and intracellular proteins became glutathionylated. Bacterial death was observed when the reduced glutathione pool dropped below 20%. A S. pneumoniae mutant unable to import glutathione (ΔgshT) was more readily killed by exogenous HOSCN. Furthermore, bacterial growth in the presence of LPO converting bacterial H2O2 to HOSCN was significantly impeded in mutants that were unable to import glutathione, or mutants unable to recycle oxidized glutathione (Δgor). This research highlights the importance of glutathione in protecting S. pneumoniae from HOSCN. Limiting glutathione utilization by S. pneumoniae may be a way to limit colonization and pathogenicity." @default.
