It is well established that cigarette smoke provokes inflammatory activation and impairs antimicrobial functions of human immune cells. Here we explore whether cigarette smoke likewise affects the virulence properties of an important human pathogen,\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">Staphylococcus aureus<\/jats:named-content>\n            , and in particular methicillin-resistant\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">S. aureus<\/jats:named-content>\n            (MRSA), one of the leading causes of invasive bacterial infections. MRSA colonizes the nasopharynx and is thus exposed to inhalants, including cigarette smoke. MRSA exposed to cigarette smoke extract (CSE-MRSA) was more resistant to macrophage killing (4-fold higher survival;\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; 0.0001). CSE-MRSA demonstrated reduced susceptibility to cell lysis (1.78-fold;\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            = 0.032) and antimicrobial peptide (AMP) (LL-37) killing (MIC, 8 \u03bcM versus 4 \u03bcM). CSE modified the surface charge of MRSA in a dose-dependent fashion, impairing the binding of particles with charge similar to that of AMPs by 90% (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; 0.0001). These changes persisted for 24 h postexposure, suggesting heritable modifications. CSE exposure increased hydrophobicity by 55% (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; 0.0001), which complemented findings of increased MRSA adherence and invasion of epithelial cells. CSE induced upregulation of\n            <jats:italic>mprF<\/jats:italic>\n            , consistent with increased MRSA AMP resistance.\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">S. aureus<\/jats:named-content>\n            without\n            <jats:italic>mprF<\/jats:italic>\n            had no change in surface charge upon exposure to CSE.\n            <jats:italic>In vivo<\/jats:italic>\n            , CSE-MRSA pneumonia induced higher mouse mortality (40% versus 10%) and increased bacterial burden at 8 and 20 h postinfection compared to control MRSA-infected mice (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt; 0.01). We conclude that cigarette smoke-induced immune resistance phenotypes in MRSA may be an additional factor contributing to susceptibility to infectious disease in cigarette smokers.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/iai.00303-15","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,4,1]],"date-time":"2015-04-01T09:46:18Z","timestamp":1427881578000},"page":"2443-2452","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":67,"title":["Analysis of the Effects of Cigarette Smoke on Staphylococcal Virulence Phenotypes"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"83","author":[{"given":"Elisa K.","family":"McEachern","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine Service, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John H.","family":"Hwang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine Service, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katherine M.","family":"Sladewski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine Service, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shari","family":"Nicatia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine Service, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Utrecht University, Utrecht, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carola","family":"Dewitz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine Service, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Physiological Chemistry, University of Veterinary Medicine, Hannover, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Denzil P.","family":"Mathew","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine Service, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Victor","family":"Nizet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Skaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5091-2660","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Laura E.","family":"Crotty Alexander","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medicine Service, Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System, San Diego, California, USA"},{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, California, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","volume-title":"The health consequences of smoking\u201450 years of progress: a report of the surgeon general","author":"Anonymous","year":"2014","unstructured":"Anonymous. 2014.
