Combination of pre-adapted bacteriophage therapy and antibiotics for treatment of fracture-related infection due to pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

Anais Eskenazi et al.

Summary: This case study describes the successful treatment of a bombing victim with a fracture-related pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infection. The combination therapy of pre-adapted bacteriophage and antibiotics resulted in significant clinical, microbiological, and radiological improvement.

Can Bacteriophages Replace Antibiotics?

Mikael Skurnik

Summary: Due to the increasing antibiotic resistance, it is necessary to address the issue promptly. Phage therapy, as a precision therapy for bacterial infections, has gained attention, but there are still unresolved issues such as clear instructions, practical experience, and seamless coordination.

An Optimized Bacteriophage Cocktail Can Effectively Control Salmonella in vitro and in Galleria mellonella

Janet Y. Nale et al.

Summary: The study found that phages can be used to control Salmonella infection in animals, and specific application methods were investigated. Prophylactic regimen was more effective than remedial regimen, showing promising potential for treating infections in pigs and poultry.

Genes Influencing Phage Host Range in Staphylococcus aureus on a Species-Wide Scale

Abraham G. Moller et al.

Summary: This study investigated the genetic basis of strain-to-strain variation in sensitivity to phages in Staphylococcus aureus, identifying putative loci that affect host range and discovering previously unreported genes influencing bacterial growth during phage infection. Predictive models were developed based on the host range matrix data, suggesting the complexity of phage susceptibility in S. aureus but also the potential for targeted phage therapy.

Phage engineering and the evolutionary arms race

Huan Peng et al.

Summary: Phages are versatile agents that can deliver a variety of cargo, including nanomaterials, nucleic acids, and small molecules. They are amenable to molecular engineering, which is essential for applications such as treatment of antibiotic-resistant infections. This engineering capability may have evolutionary origins in the long-standing 'arms race' between bacteria and phages, leading to high tolerance of genetic mutations and synthetic engineering.

Bacteriophage endolysins - extending their application to tissues and the bloodstream

Mathias Schmelcher et al.

Summary: Endolysins, as a promising new class of antimicrobials, have shown effectiveness in various animal models against bacterial infections in different organs and tissues. However, challenges such as immunogenicity, circulation half-life, and specific targeting and penetration properties still need to be addressed for their systemic application.

Phage Therapy in the 21st Century: Is There Modern, Clinical Evidence of Phage-Mediated Efficacy?

Stephen T. Abedon et al.

Summary: Bacteriophages have shown some effectiveness in clinical settings as anti-bacterial infection agents, especially in treating infections that traditional antibiotics cannot cure. Some research evidence suggests that phage therapy can be an effective means of treating difficult-to-cure bacterial infections.

Friends or Foes? Rapid Determination of Dissimilar Colistin and Ciprofloxacin Antagonism of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Phages

Katarzyna M. Danis-Wlodarczyk et al.

Summary: Research has shown that colistin significantly interferes with phage activities at its minimum inhibitory concentration, while ciprofloxacin has little impact on phages. Combination therapy with phages and antibiotics is more effective in treating P. aeruginosa, and phage replication is crucial for treatment success. The lysis-profile assays provide a useful, quick, and high-throughput method to assess antibiotic antagonism of phage infection activities.

Analysis of Selection Methods to Develop Novel Phage Therapy Cocktails Against Antimicrobial Resistant Clinical Isolates of Bacteria

Melissa E. K. Haines et al.

Summary: The study presents a novel approach to develop an effective phage cocktail against ESBL-producing E. coli and Klebsiella strains largely isolated from UK hospitals. By comparing different phage efficacy assessment methods, the research identifies a screening cascade to develop phage cocktails targeting AMR bacterial species. The final ESBL cocktail of six phages demonstrates promising clinical coverage and killing efficiency against the bacterial strains tested.

Improving Phage-Biofilm In Vitro Experimentation

Stephen T. Abedon et al.

Summary: The study highlights the limitations in in vitro experiments on bacteriophage interactions with bacterial biofilms and suggests improvements in experiment design and interpretation. Issues such as distinguishing between new biofilm growth and existing biofilm removal, providing adequate descriptions of phage titers, and using appropriate overlying fluid volumes should be addressed.

Screening for Lysogen Activity in Therapeutically Relevant Bacteriophages

Fernando L. Gordillo Altamirano et al.

Summary: Lysogenic phages can integrate into bacterial genomes, potentially transferring genetic information, making them unsuitable for therapeutic use. A simple phenotypic test is described in the protocol to screen for lysogenic behavior in bacteriophages, which can be reliably used even without sequencing data.
