#METABOLOMICS WORKBENCH wangchao_20250318_185134 DATATRACK_ID:5741 STUDY_ID:ST003866 ANALYSIS_ID:AN006354 PROJECT_ID:PR002422 VERSION 1 CREATED_ON April 16, 2025, 5:42 pm #PROJECT PR:PROJECT_TITLE Mechanisms of Exogenous Metabolites Alter the Bactericidal Efficiency of PR:PROJECT_TITLE Antibiotics by Affecting the Metabolic State of Bacteria PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY Antibiotic resistance is a serious global crisis. Different from the traditional PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY drug resistance mechanism, metabolic regulation can change bacteria from PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY antibiotic resistant state to sensitive state, which provides a new way for PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY antibiotics to treat the infection of resistant bacteria. In previous studies, PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY we found that arginine can significantly improve the bactericidal efficiency of PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY antibiotics, but the mechanism was not clear. We plan to study the effects of PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY arginine on the global metabolic pathway from the perspective of metabolomics, PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY and finally determine how arginine changes the bactericidal efficiency of PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY antibiotics.

This study investigated the mechanism by which L-arginine ST:STUDY_SUMMARY enhanced the bactericidal efficiency of antibiotics. The metabolites in the ST:STUDY_SUMMARY exogenous Arg group and the control group were analyzed using LC-MS. KEGG ST:STUDY_SUMMARY enrichment analysis identified three significantly altered pathways: ST:STUDY_SUMMARY phenylalanine metabolism, degradation of aromatic compounds, and the TCA cycle. ST:STUDY_SUMMARY The results confirmed that arginine can change multiple metabolic pathways of ST:STUDY_SUMMARY bacteria, providing theoretical support for the study of arginine to change the ST:STUDY_SUMMARY bactericidal efficiency of antibiotics.

The bacteria were harvested when OD600 was 1.0. The CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY equivalent cells were quenched with 60% (v/v) cold of methanol at −40°C for CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY 5 s and collected by centrifugation at 1000g at 4°C for 10 min. After removing CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY the supernatant, the cells were stored at −80°C. CO:SAMPLE_TYPE Bacterial cells #TREATMENT TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY E.tarda cells diluted in M9 media with or without exogenous Arg incubated at TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY 37°C for 5 h. Then, the metabolic reaction is terminated by cold methanol TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY (-80°C), and bacterial cells were harvested rapidly by centrifugation at 5000g TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY for 5 min. After washed twice by cold sterile saline, the bacterial cells were TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY frozen by liquid nitrogen, and stored at −80°C. #SAMPLEPREP SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY After equivalent cells resuspended by 0.1 mL of precooled methanol at -20°C and SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY incubated for 60 min, the samples were collected by centrifugation at 14,000 g SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY for 15 min, and the supernatants were dried in a centrifugal evaporator. The SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY dried samples were redissolved by 80% methanol and analyzed. #CHROMATOGRAPHY CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_TYPE Normal phase CH:INSTRUMENT_NAME Vanquish UHPLC system CH:COLUMN_NAME Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C18 (100 x 2.1 mm, 3.5 µm) CH:SOLVENT_A 95% Acetonitrile; 5% Water CH:SOLVENT_B 50% Acetonitrile; 50% Water CH:FLOW_GRADIENT 2%B for 1min, 2−50%B for 16.5min, and 50−2%B for 2.5 min CH:FLOW_RATE 0.3 mL/min CH:COLUMN_TEMPERATURE 25°C #ANALYSIS AN:ANALYSIS_TYPE MS #MS MS:INSTRUMENT_NAME Agilent 6470A MS:INSTRUMENT_TYPE Triple quadrupole MS:MS_TYPE ESI MS:ION_MODE NEGATIVE MS:MS_COMMENTS The mass spectrometer was operated with a spray voltage of 3.2 kV, capillary MS:MS_COMMENTS temperature of 320°C, sheath gas flow rate of 35 arb, and aux gas flow rate MS:MS_COMMENTS of 10 arb.
