Antibiotic resistance is becoming an increasingly problematic issue Antibiotics are the
most effective defense against bacterial infections.
Rapid adaptation of bacteria to antibiotics leads to resistance.
There is mounting interest in search of alternatives to antibiotics. http://www.pulsetoday.co.uk/Pictures/web/w/n/x/

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is responsible for a variety of
nosocomial infections Gram negative. Poses a threat to
cystic fibrosis patients.
Source of hospital acquired pneumonia.
Causes chronic lung infections.
Infects wounds and burns.

Phage therapy is used to treat bacterial pathogens
Provide host specificity.
More specific than antibiotics.
Phages are able to inject genetic material inside host.
LUZ7 phage has reduced bacterial population size of P. aeruginosa.

Experiment designed to test individual and combined treatments
P.aeruginosa (PAO1) treated with LUZ7 bacteriophage.
Pathogen treated with streptomycin.
Treatment with both streptomycin and LUZ7.
Results observed by counting number of different growing colonies (CFU).
Figure 1. Overview of experimental design
Barcelo et. al. (2014)
![Page 6: Seminar_Pres2](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081605/58edf4121a28ab71488b45d5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Combined phage-strep treatment caused reduction in bacterial density
Single treatments of phage and antibiotic reduced bacterial density over the first 24 hours.
Densities rebounded to control levels by the 70 hour mark
Combined treatment caused significant reduction in density without regrowth.
Bacterial density reduction was stronger when antibiotic was added with a 12 hour delay.
Streptomycin dose had no significant effect on final density.
Figure 2. Changes in bacterial density over time
Barcelo et. al. (2014)
![Page 7: Seminar_Pres2](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081605/58edf4121a28ab71488b45d5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
There is a positive synergistic interaction between phage and antibiotic
Densities were lower than expected.
The combined treatment was most significant for the 12h antibiotic addition.
Delay of antibiotic addition resulted in strongest negative impact.

Final bacterial populations exhibited resistance
Bacteria treated from streptomycin evolved higher levels of resistance.
Single-strep treatment resistance reached maximum levels.
Resistance values were lower for populations where streptomycin was added to the phage with a 12h delay.Barcelo et. al.
(2014)

Bacteria from phage treatments were more resistant as compared
with bacteria with no phage treatment
Absence of phage produced a decrease in resistance.
Previously exposed bacteria exhibit resistance towards ancestral phage.

Treatment with evolved phage showed difference when compared
with ancestral phage
Resistance against evolved phage was lower as compared with ancestral phage.
Data suggests adaptation of phage to bacteria.

Combination of antibiotics and phages is a enticing possibility
Combined treatments lead to synergistic suppression of bacterial density and less resistance.
Bacteria most affected when antibiotic added at the time when phages had their strongest impact.

Conclusion The study provides evidence of the
effectiveness of antibiotic-phage treatment on P.aeruginosa pathogen. It also suggests a specific window of opportunity in which the antibiotic can be added and have the most effect.
