Strong pathogen competition in neonatal gut colonisation

T. Mäklin, H. A. Thorpe, A. K. Pöntinen, R. A. Gladstone, Y. Shao, M. Pesonen, A. McNally, P. J. Johnsen, O. Samuelsen, T. D. Lawley, A. Honkela, J. Corander

This study quantifies strain-level colonisation dynamics of gut pathogens in neonates, finding strong competition and some synergies, and reveals pathogenic potential differences among ExPEC clones.

Evolutionary instability of collateral susceptibility networks in ciprofloxacin resistant clinical Escherichia coli strains

V. Sorum, E. L. Oynes, A. S. Moller, K. Harms, O. Samuelsen, N. L. Podnecky, P. J. Johnsen

This study shows that collateral networks in ciprofloxacin-resistant E. coli strains are evolutionarily unstable due to compensatory mutations, particularly affecting rpoS.

Cryptic β-lactamase evolution is driven by low β-lactam concentrations

C. Frohlich, J. A. Gama, K. Harms, V. H. A. Hirvonen, B. A. Lund, M. W. van der Kamp, P. J. Johnsen, O. Samuelsen, H.-K. S. Leiros

The paper shows that low β-lactam concentrations drive cryptic evolution of β-lactamases through fitness benefits in competition experiments, not increased resistance.

The chemotherapeutic drug methotrexate selects for antibiotic resistance

J. S. Guthmundsdottir, E. G. A. Fredheim, C. I. M. Koumans, J. Hegstad, P.-C. Tang, D. I. Andersson, O. Samuelsen, P. J. Johnsen

This study shows methotrexate can select for antibiotic resistance genes in E. coli when linked to trimethoprim resistance, at sub-inhibitory concentrations.

Piggybacking on niche-adaptation reduces the cost of multidrug resistance plasmids

J. Kloos, J. A. Gama, J. Hegstad, O. Samuelsen, P. J. Johnsen

The paper shows that chromosomal mutations in E. coli reduce the cost of multidrug resistance plasmids by downregulating plasmid gene expression during niche adaptation.
