  • Around the world, harmful bacteria are gaining resistance to our most common antibiotics. However, a type of viruses called bacteriophages may provide a solution. In this video, NIAID experts Shayla Hesse, M.D., a Clinical Infectious Diseases Fellow at NIAID, and Randall Kincaid, Ph.D., a Senior Scientific Officer in the Concept Acceleration Program of NIAID's Division of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, explain how these "phages" function, and how NIAID is supporting new phage research.

      From what I learned, in order for bacteria to gain resistance to bacteriophages, they have to trade away their immunity to antibiotics. So combining the two could trap them in a catch 22.

      it was abandoned in the US in the 1940's s because the Soviet Union was the leader in Phage research at the time. ..So it was at least partly, an ideological decision that emerged out of American cold war politics ...Also drugs were seen as easier to monetize for profit, at least they were back then because of patent laws. It wasnt clear how they could patent an organism that evolved a billion years before capitalism. Now its understood, they patent the research and various procedures.

      My theory is that there might have been an age where an intelligent multicellular prokaryote organism was the dominant species on Earth, think humans but made up of prokaryote (bacterial) cells instead of eukaryote cells. These large bacterial animals were made up of billions of bacteria each (just like we are made up of billions of our cells). They were as intelligent or more intelligent than humans, and one day they decided to augment themselves by inventing a nanobot that could enter their cells and insert any genes they wanted to have, could be anything from super strength to resistance against cancer. These nanobots could also use the bacterial ribosomes to self-replicate within their cells after modifying them with the desired gene, but they would stop replicating after a certain amount of bots were made and they would exit the cell without harming it, going on to augment other cells and eventually doing so to every cell in their bodies. Unfortunately for them, one of these nanobots mutated and started to multiply beyond it’s normal limit, until the cell became so full of them that it burst open, releasing thousands of those mutated bots. Soon, that species’ whole population was killed due to those mutated nanobots, which we nowadays call bacteriophages. The phages became so widespread that multicellular bacterial life became impossible because the phages would tear through a macroscopic bacterial organism in minutes due to the cells all being clumped together. After the phage apocalypse, the only bacteria left were the unicellular, microscopic bacteria we’re familiar with today, which still managed to proliferate despite phages still killing a large portion of their population everyday even until today.

    I am a little late, but if anyone can answer this I would appreciate it. Could phages be responsible for curing or causing the remission of diseases in situations where alternative or homeopathic cures are thought to be responsible? From what I understand, the phages used to cure various diseases are found in nature, identified, and selectively reproduced in a lab setting in order to make enough of that particular phage for theraputic purposes. Does this mean if somebody with a particular disease comes across the a phage that kills that bacteria in the wild it would have no observable effect? At what threshold does a phage stand a chance of killing the bacteria? From everything I have been able to find, it seems like even a few phages could use a host bacteria to reproduce on a massive scale because they take over the bacteria and force it to produce more phages until the bacteria bursts.

    • @niaid
      @niaid  4 года назад +9

      Thank you for your inquiry. Patients with bacterial infections have been found with natural phages that have the potential to cure the infections. What has yet to be documented are cases where the observed natural bacteriophages have cured the infections. For example, rice water stool (a form of diarrhea) is a common occurrence in patients suffering from cholera, and bacteriophages which will attack the bacteria causing cholera are often found in this stool. For more information on this finding, please see the following paper: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21304168
      There are still many aspects of phage science which require further research, such as how many phages would be needed to treat different kinds of bacterial infections under different circumstances. We hope this information will be useful to you.

    Is consideration being given to the fact that these living organisms could have negative side effects? Once they are done with the bacteria cells, is it possible that they would mutate and start feeding on other cell types? Is it possible that they might release substances that could cause a detrimental effect on the very organism they are meant to save?

    • @khangle6872
      @khangle6872 Год назад

      Phages only specialise in one bacteria, which mean, hypothetically, if you have 2 infection, you would need 2 types of phages to kill them, because phages dont care for anything but its one and only bacteria
      Human cell is too different, it would take a whole new course of evolution for phages to target human, the chance is like, "what if your lungs became selfware and attack your own body?"
      In fact, there are about 1 million billion of them inside your intestines right now

    When I was studying microbiology, I was speaking to my professor about this very application. The problem we discussed was that this sort of treatment is usually only valid for the first treatment. You could never use the phage a second time if the patient becomes reinfected because the body would develop an immune response to the phage, as it is a foreign invader. Is this still an issue, and if so, how do you combat it??

      Thank you for your inquiry. Researchers have explored several possibilities for delivering phages to harmful mycobacteria bacteria inside human cells in phage therapy. Some potential techniques include creating liposomes (tiny spherical structures which are sometimes used to deliver nutrients or drugs inside living cells) that contain phages, or harnessing a harmless “carrier” mycobacterium. By infecting the “carrier” bacterium with phages, then allowing it to enter infected human cells, researchers could deliver phages to the harmful mycobacteria. However, a significant amount of research is still needed on this subject.

      @@niaid thank you so much for your response, I'm doing some research about phage therapy in college ,and this going to be a valuable extra piece of information to make some research about.
      Another question is it common to phages to transport harmful genes such as toxins genes from bacterial cell to another, and if it was can scientists avoid such incidents when applying phage therapy?

      Thank you for your inquiry. Bacteriophages are viruses which attack specific kinds of bacteria. However, they do not attack other viruses or human cells. Thus, they are unlikely to be an effective treatment for viral infections. We hope this information is useful to you.

      @@ansh6370 Thank you for your inquiry. Antibiotics are designed to work against bacteria or other simple living organisms that can cause disease. These drugs are not effective against viruses. Some viral infections can be treated with antiviral drugs, and many viral diseases can be prevented with vaccines. We hope this information is useful to you.

      There is a virus type called virophage though. They work differently than bacteriophages and infect other giant viruses to infect a host cell together flighting for the recourses. This can help the host cell by not letting it fill with the giant cell but it is not as helpful.
