Microbe-metabolite interaction networks, antibiotic resistance, and in vitro reconstitution of the penile prosthesis biofilm support a paradigm shift from infection to colonization
Abstract To understand differences between asymptomatic colonized and infected states of indwelling medical devices, we sought to determine penile prosthesis biofilm composition, microbe-metabolite interaction networks, and association with clinical factors.

description | Abstract To understand differences between asymptomatic colonized and infected states of indwelling medical devices, we sought to determine penile prosthesis biofilm composition, microbe-metabolite interaction networks, and association with clinical factors. Patients scheduled for penile prosthesis removal/revision were included. Samples from swabbed devices and controls underwent next-generation sequencing, metabolomics, and culture-based assessments. Biofilm formation from device isolates was reconstituted in a continuous-flow stir tank bioreactor. 93% of 27 analyzed devices harbored demonstrable biofilm. Seven genera including Faecalibaculum and Jeotgalicoccus were more abundant in infected than uninfected device biofilms (p < 0.001). Smokers and those with diabetes mellitus or cardiac disease had lower total normalized microbial counts than those without the conditions (p < 0.001). We identified microbe-metabolite interaction networks enriched in devices explanted for infection and pain. Biofilm formation was recapitulated on medical device materials including silicone, PTFE, polyurethane, and titanium in vitro to facilitate further mechanistic studies. Nearly all penile prosthesis devices harbor biofilms. Staphylococcus and Escherichia, the most common causative organisms of prosthesis infection, had similar abundance irrespective of infection status. A series of other uncommon genera and metabolites were differentially abundant, suggesting a complex microbe-metabolite pattern–rather than a single organism–is responsible for the transition from asymptomatic to infected or painful states. |
