Bacteriophages (from the words “bacteria” and the Greek phagos - devouring; BF), or phages, are specific bacterial viruses that cause their lysis (destruction of cells) or change their properties. They were first discovered by microbiologists F. Twort (1915) in Great Britain and F. d'Herelle (1917) in France. However, it was possible to study their morphology only after the invention of the electron microscope.
Biology of bacteriophages
The wide distribution of BFs in nature is associated with the ubiquity of their main hosts, bacteria. BFs can infect not only bacteria, but also fungi and protozoa, which is why they are also called phages. According to the degree of specificity, they distinguish: polyvalent BPs that interact with related species of bacteria; monovalent BFs that interact with bacteria of a certain type; typical BFs that interact with individual types (variants) of a given type of bacteria.
BFs consist of a protein - a capsid that protects one type of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA, single or double-stranded). There are BFs with a long process, having a contractile or non-contractile sheath, as well as BFs with short processes, analogues of processes, without processes and filamentous (Fig. 1, 2). The size of the BF ranges from 20 to 800 nm (in filamentous forms). BFs, which have the shape of a spermatozoon, reach up to 200 nm in length, consist of a tail process and an icosahedral type head containing nucleic acid. The capsid of the head and the sheath of the tail process of the BP consist of polypeptide subunits arranged according to icosahedral (head) or helical (process) type of symmetry. The tail process has a hollow tube (rod) inside, through which, during infection, the phage nucleic acid passes from the head into the bacterium. The process sheath ends in a hexagonal basal plate with spines from which fibrils (threads) extend. The basal lamina and tail fibrils are involved in the attachment of BP to the bacterial cell. Not all FDs have basal plates and tail fibrils. Depending on the life cycle, BFs can be virulent (lytic) or moderate.
Virulent (lytic) BPs for penetration into bacteria are adsorbed on specific cell receptors, including lipopolysaccharide, lipoprotein, teichoic acids, proteins, or even pili. The specificity of the receptors means that BP can only infect certain bacteria. Once in the bacterium, BF reproduces, forming 200–500 phage particles and causing the death of the bacterium. This is a productive (lytic) type of interaction. BFs with a contractile sheath are adsorbed on the cell wall with the help of fibrils of the tail process. The sheath of the tail process contracts, and the rod, with the help of enzymes (lysozyme), seems to drill through the cell membrane. Through the channel of the BF tube, the nucleic acid is injected from the head into the bacterial cell, and the BF capsid remains outside the bacterium (Fig. 2). The nucleic acid of BF directs the synthesis of its enzymes. In this case, the host DNA and RNA are inactivated. The BF nucleic acid replicates and directs the synthesis of new capsid proteins. Self-assembly of the capsid around the phage nucleic acid and the formation of BFs occur, which come out of the bacterium as a result of its lysis, expulsion, or in some cases, budding. 200–1000 new BPs are released from the bacterium, which infect other bacterial cells.
Moderate BFs interact with bacteria in a productive or integrative manner. The productive type of temperate phage, like virulent phages, ends with the lysis of bacteria. With the integrative type, the DNA of a temperate phage is integrated into the bacterial chromosome and replicates synchronously with the bacterial genome without causing its lysis (transmitted when the bacterium divides). The phage DNA embedded in the chromosome of a bacterium is called a prophage, and the bacterial culture is called lysogenic, the process itself is called lysogeny (from the Greek lysis - decomposition, genea - origin).
The chromosome of the temperate phage lambda, introduced into the bacterium, causes either lysis or lysogenization (the temperate phage DNA that has penetrated into the bacterium takes the shape of a ring and integrates into a strictly defined region of the chromosome). Ultraviolet irradiation induces a lytic process with the release of phage. In lysogeny, phages are not formed as a result of “switching off” phage genes by a repressor encoded by one phage gene.
Prophages can be derepressed spontaneously or under the influence of inducing agents (ultraviolet rays, mitomycin C, etc.) and excluded from the chromosome. This process ends with the production of phages (prophage induction) and lysis of bacteria. The prophage imparts new properties to the bacterium, which is called phage conversion (Latin: conversio - transformation). The morphological, cultural, biochemical, antigenic and other properties of bacteria can be converted. For example, the presence of a prophage in Vibrio cholerae determines its ability to produce cholera exotoxin.
BF is used for the prevention and treatment of infections, as well as for diagnostics (for example, for phage typing to identify the source of infection). In addition, BFs are used in genetic engineering as vectors transferring DNA sections; Natural gene transfer between bacteria through transduction is also possible.
Phage typing is one of the methods of epidemiological marking. Used to identify the source of infection. Isolation of bacteria of the same phagovar from different patients indicates a common source of their infection. During intraspecific identification of bacteria, i.e., when determining the phagovar (phagotype) of bacteria using phage typing, drops of various diagnostic type-specific phages are applied to a Petri dish with a dense nutrient medium seeded with a pure culture of the pathogen in the form of a “lawn”. Bacteria sensitive to the phage are lysed (a sterile spot, “plaque”, or so-called negative phage colony is formed).
BF is a unique phenomenon; they participate in various processes:
- in the transmission of drug resistance during transduction, especially in staphylococci;
- lysogenic conversion leads to the acquisition of new characteristics of bacteria;
- a random insertion into a bacterial chromosome can cause an insertional mutation;
- in epidemiological typing of bacteria (phage typing);
- in lambda BF – a model system for studying latent infection;
- BFs are used in genetic engineering as vectors and gene libraries;
- BFs are responsible for the natural removal of bacteria; used to prevent and treat certain infections.
Obtaining effective therapeutic and prophylactic BPs is associated with a careful and constant search for strains with a wide spectrum (valency) of action on bacteria and a high degree of their lytic activity. The lytic activity and, consequently, the therapeutic and preventive effectiveness of BF preparations depend on the species, infraspecific affiliation of the pathogen, its receptor characteristics and factors of its microenvironment. For example, antibodies and other humoral proteins can block the binding sites of bacteria with BF, which excludes the possibility of parenteral administration of the latter. In addition, the rapid development of bacterial resistance to the used BFs is possible. To obtain a therapeutic effect in case of unfavorable bacterial associations, BF preparations are produced either as polyvalent ones, directed against various species and serovars of one pathogen, or combined, containing BF against various types of pathogen.
BFs do not cause adverse reactions and do not disrupt normal microflora. With dysbacteriosis, intestinal dysfunction caused by the development of local inflammatory processes, suppression of resident microflora, a number of opportunistic microorganisms and transient microflora are activated. These circumstances raise the importance of selective decontamination carried out using targeted antibiotics and lytic BPs.
BF, having specific action against certain pathogens of acute intestinal infections, can also contribute to the development of oral tolerance. It is known that the human body exhibits oral (regional) tolerance to its own normal microflora. This tolerance is due to the blockade of activation of signaling receptors (for example, toll-like receptors - TLR, etc.) to components of the human microflora and the activity of regulatory T lymphocytes (Treg), which in turn are activated by NKT cells (natural killer T cells). Components (patterns) of BP and the bacteria destroyed by it can activate certain signal receptors of body cells, stimulating the synthesis of antimicrobial peptides that suppress the development of the most aggressive microbes (Fig. 3). Failure of oral tolerance leads to the development of various disorders, including chronic gastritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, necrotizing enterocolitis in children, gastric and duodenal ulcers.
BF preparations are stored at a temperature of 2–10 °C in a dry, dark place. BF are sensitive to ultraviolet rays; even their short exposure to light leads to loss of lytic activity. To protect BF from the action of gastric juice, they are produced in capsules or tablets coated with an acid-resistant coating. The protective coating material is non-toxic cellulose, esterified with acetic and phthalic acids, forming a smooth transparent film. For children, due to problems swallowing tablets, a pectin coating is used. Pectin, enveloping BF, protects them from the destructive effects of gastric juice.
Normalization of microflora and the possible participation of BP in the maintenance of colonization resistance and oral tolerance ensure stabilization of the humoral and cellular components of immunity. Occasionally, the use of BF coincides with a deterioration in the quality of stool due to the massive death of bacteria sensitive to it. In this case, to reduce intoxication, it is advisable to prescribe enterosorbent at night - no earlier than 3-4 hours after the last dose of BF.
