No evidence of plasmid-mediated antibiotic resistance in North American Yersinia pestis David M. Wagner1, Janelle Runberg1, Amy J. Vogler1, Judy Lee1, Lance B. Price2, David M.

Plague Transmission Cycle Wild Rodent Cycle Secondary plague pneumonia Wild Rodent Direct contact Bubonic or Septicemic plague Primary pneumonic plague cases Infective Infective Flea Direct contact contaminated soil Flea contact Direct Infective Flea Domestic Rodent Wild Rodent Pathways Infective usual Flea Domestic occasional Rodent Commensal Rat Cycle rare or theoretical Slide courtesy of Ken Gage

Three Plague Pandemics – 200 Million Deaths Perry & Fetherston 1997 Achtman et al. 1999

Control of Plague – Hygiene & Antibiotics Kill or eliminate habitat for rat hosts – very important in urban areas Control flea vectors using insecticides Rapid diagnosis, followed by Standard treatment with antibiotics Streptomycin Tetracyclines Sulfonamides

Plague Today – Global Distribution Stenseth et al. 2008. PLoS Medicine

Plague Vaccines – Little Success to Date Killed vaccine no longer available in the US Live attenuated vaccine not licensed for humans Injected subunit vaccines show promise for future As a result, efforts to save human lives are still focused on rapid diagnosis followed by treatment with antibiotics Resistance to antibiotics could represent a serious threat to human health given high pathogenicity and ability to rapidly spread under optimal conditions

Antimicrobial Resistance in Y. pestis Strain 17/95 16/95 Streptomycin Resistance YES Tetracycline Resistance NO Sulfonamide Resistance Other Resistance Country of Origin Madagascar Year of Isolation 1995 Resistance Plasmid pIP1202 pIP1203 Galimand et al. 1997. New England Journal of Medicine

Typical and Atypical Plasmids in Y. pestis Three main plasmids, all associated w/ virulence: pCD1 (found in all pathogenic Yersinia) pPCP1 pMT1 pMT1 very similar to plasmid in Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhi Several different studies have documented atypical plasmids present in Y. pestis strains Indicates that this species readily acquires plasmids Filippov et al. 1990; Parkhill et al. 2001 ; Prentice et al. 2001

Plasmid Acquisition Likely Occurs in Fleas In co-infected fleas, E. coli donated pIP1202 to Y. pestis at frequency of 10-3 after three days After four weeks, 95% of co-infected fleas contained MDR Y. pestis (Hinnebusch et al. 2002) Y. pestis infected fleas can harbor diverse bacterial communities (Wagner et al. unpubl.) Y. pestis infected fleas commonly co-infected with Salmonella spp. (Eskey et al. 1951) What do we know about MDR plasmids in Y. pestis?

Plasmid pIP1202 from Y. pestis Similar to MDR plasmids from Y. ruckeri and S. enterica Newport All share the same plasmid backbone (IncA/C) Backbone contains gene conferring resistance to sulfonamides (sul2) Other resistance genes vary Welch et al. 2007. PLoS One

Similar MDR Plasmids in US Meat Products Plasmids with similar IncA/C backbones and varying MDR profiles found in bacteria recovered from meat Sources: turkey, chicken, beef, pork States: CA, CO, CT, GA, IA, MD, MN, ND, NM, NY, TN, and OR Hosts: S. enterica Typhimurium, Newport, Kentucky, Heidelberg, Dublin, Bredeney, Klebsiella spp., E. coli Most resistant to tetracycline and many resistant to streptomycin and others, in addition to sulfonamides Many strains readily transferred plasmids to Y. ruckeri Welch et al. 2007. PLoS One

No Evidence in North American Y. pestis State N Years Arizona 151 1975, 1977-1984, 1986-1989, 1992-1996, 1998, 2000-2002 California 129 1943, 1962, 1970, 1977, 1979-1980, 1983-1999 Colorado 97 1963, 1968, 1989, 1992, 1995-1997, 1999-2002 Idaho 2 1987, 1997 Kansas 17 1997, 1999 Montana 11 1987, 1992-1993 North Dakota 1986, 1993 New Mexico 124 1950, 1976-1977, 1979-1988, 1991-1992, 1994-1995, 1997-2002 Nevada 36 1980-1985, 1987, 1992-1995 Oregon 18 1959, 1970-1971, 1977, 1979, 1981-1984, 1987 Texas 5 unknown Utah 55 1965, 1981-1984, 1991-1995, 1999-2001 Washington 1984 Wyoming 64 1978, 1980, 1982-1983, 1985-1987, 1989-1990, 1997, 2000-2001

Discussion/Conclusions No IncA/C plasmid-mediated MDR in North American Y. pestis – why? Our isolates mostly from human plague investigations MDR resistant plasmids in meats probably arose in Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) Plague limited to 17 westernmost states, whereas most CAFOs in the eastern states Plausible that MDR Y. pestis could arise in fleas co-infected with MDR enteric pathogens and Y. pestis However, no obvious selection pressure to maintain these MDR plasmids in Y. pestis
