摘要: Brucella is a facultative intracellular pathogen that preferentially colonizes reproductive organs and utilizes erythritol as a preferred carbon source for its survival and proliferation. In this study, we identifiedidentified a virulence-related DeoR-family transcriptional regulator (VdtR) and an erythronate metabolic pathway responsible for four-carbon acid sugar metabolism of D-erythronate and L-threonate in Brucella. We found that VdtR plays an important role in Brucella intracellular survival and trafficking to the endoplasmic reticulum in RAW 264.7 macrophages and in virulence in a mouse model. More importantly, we found that VdtR negatively regulates the erythronate metabolic pathway to promote extracellular proliferation of Brucella, depending on utilization of D-erythronate, an oxidative product of erythritol in the host. In a pregnant mouse model, the erythronate metabolic pathway was shown to cooperate with erythritol metabolism and play a crucial role in Brucella proliferation in the placenta, inducing placentitis and finally resulting in abortion or stillbirth. Our results demonstrate that, in addition to erythritol, erythronate is a preferred carbon source for Brucella utilization to promote its extracellular proliferation. This discovery updates the information on the preferential colonization of reproductive organs by Brucella and provides a novel insight into the Brucella-associated induction of abortion in pregnant animals.
