Staphylococcus pseudintermedius 5'-nucleotidase suppresses canine phagocytic activity
Abstract
Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is a major opportunistic bacterial pathogen and the leading cause of pyoderma in dogs. In canines it is also often associated with infections of the urinary system and wounds and occasionally infects people. Widespread antimicrobial resistance has made the development of alternative treatments a high priority. The development of a staphylococcal vaccine, however, has proven challenging. Identification of virulence factors that inhibit phagocytosis and avoid innate immunity may play a significant role in preventing or treating infection with S. pseudintermedius. In this study, we identified a putative 5'-nucleotidase provisionally named SpAdsA, a S. pseudintermedius cell- wall protein encoded by SpAdsA. SpAdsA shares approximately 52% identity with the orthologous protein of Staphylococcus aureus and 14.8% identity with that of Streptococcus suis type2. It catalyzes the dephosphorylation of adenosine triphosphate and attenuation of this enzyme with critical amino acid substitutions nearly eliminated its hydrolytic activity. Furthermore, exogenous adenosine inhibited phagocytosis of S. pseudintermedius by canine neutrophils and monocytes. Conversely, the addition of SpAdsA inhibitor or A2A adenosine receptor antagonist impaired the capacity of S. pseudintermedius to escape from killing by phagocytic cells. The neutralizing ability of canine antibody produced against SpAdsA-M was determined. Taken together, these results suggest that SpAdsAmore »
