Investigación en infecciones multirresistentes

 

La emergencia y diseminación global de cepas bacterianas de diferentes especies con resistencia a distintas clases de antibióticos (cepas multirresistentes) supone una amenaza para la eficacia del tratamiento antibiótico. El Antibiotic Resistance Global Report publicado por la Organización Mundial de la Salud en 2014 destacó altas tasas de resistencia en varias especies de bacterias patógenas en cada una de las seis regiones incluidas en el estudio (WHO; 2014). Las infecciones causadas por bacterias resistentes están asociadas a una mortalidad significativa, produciendo más de 700.000 muertes al año, y se estima que esta cifra llegará a 10 millones de muertes anuales en 2050, si no cambia la tendencia actual (Antimicrobial Resistance Rev; 2015). En 2017, la Organización Mundial de la Salud identificó las especies bacterianas frente a las que deberían implementarse nuevas medidas de tratamiento y prevención (WHO 2017). En este informe se clasificaron las especies Gram negativas multirresistentes.

Acinetobacter baumanniiPseudomonas aeruginosa y Klebsiella pneumoniae con la prioridad más alta (Priority 1: Critical). Las tasas de resistencia a los antimicrobianos de primera línea de estas bacterias Gram-negativas multirresistentes se han incrementado a nivel global durante la última década, complicando significativamente el manejo clínico de las infecciones producidas por estos microorganismos. En este contexto, nuestro grupo está desarrollando las siguientes líneas de investigación:

1. Desarrollo de vacunas para infecciones multirresistentes

Esta línea de investigación tiene como objetivo del desarrollo preclínico de vacunas profilácticas y anticuerpos monoclonales terapéuticos para infecciones producidas por bacterias Gram negativas multirresistentes de difícil manejo clínico debido a la resistencia antimicrobiana. La investigación realizada en esta línea tiene como objetivo identificar y caracterizar antígenos de las bacterias multirresistentes (Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae y Pseudomonas aeruginosa) que sirvan para el desarrollo de anticuerpos monoclonales y vacunas a través de estudios epidemiológicos, genómicos y proteómicos.

2. Caracterización de tratamientos novedosos para infecciones multirresistentes

Esta línea de investigación tiene como objetivo identificar y caracterizar nuevos tratamientos basados en moléculas novedosas y/o combinaciones de antibióticos existentes para infecciones producidas por bacterias Gram negativas multirresistentes.  También se emplean técnicas moleculares y "omicas" para la identificación de nuevas dianas para el desarrollo de antibióticos novedosas. 

3. Desarrollo de vacunas frente a SARS-CoV-2

Debido la situación producida por la propagación del SARS-CoV-2 urge la realización de estudios que tienen como objetvo el desarrollo de vacunas profilácticas.  Nuestro grupo lidera el desarrollo de un prototipo de vacuna basado en ADN plasmídico que expresa antígenos de SARS-CoV-2 y la caracterización de la respuesta inmune inducida por esta vacuna en un modelo murino de inmunización.
