https://www.selleckchem.com/products/act001-dmamcl.html For healthcare-associated, including antimicrobial-resistant, pathogens, we propose a combination of top-down and bottom-up genomic approaches leveraged across the public health spectrum, from local infection control, to regional and national containment efforts, to national surveillance for understanding emerging strain ecology and fitness of healthcare pathogens.The Dot/Icm type IV secretion system (T4SS) of Legionella pneumophila is essential for lysosomal evasion and permissiveness of macrophages for intracellular proliferation of the pathogen. In contrast, we show that polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) respond to a functional Dot/Icm system through rapid restriction of L. pneumophila. Specifically, we show that the L. pneumophila T4SS-injected amylase (LamA) effector catalyzes rapid glycogen degradation in the PMNs cytosol, leading to cytosolic hyperglucose. Neutrophils respond through immunometabolic reprogramming that includes upregulated aerobic glycolysis. The PMNs become activated with spatial generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species within the Legionella-containing phagosome (LCP) and fusion of specific and azurophilic granules to the LCP, leading to rapid restriction of L. pneumophila. We conclude that in contrast to macrophages, PMNs respond to a functional Dot/Icm system, and specifically to the effect of the injected amylase effector, through rapid engagement of major microbicidal processes and rapid restriction of the pathogen. IMPORTANCE Legionella pneumophila is commonly found in aquatic environments and resides within a wide variety of amoebal hosts. Upon aerosol transmission to humans, L. pneumophila invades and replicates with alveolar macrophages, causing pneumonia designated Legionnaires' disease. In addition to alveolar macrophages, neutrophils infiltrate into the lungs of infected patients. Unlike alveolar macrophages, neutrophils restrict and kill L. pneumophila, but the mechan
