Abstrakt: Drug-resistant Salmonella is widely distributed in the meat production chain, endangering food safety and public health. Acidification of meat products during processing can induce acid stress, which may alter antibiotic resistance. Our study investigated the effects of acid stress on the antibiotic resistance and metabolic profile of Salmonella Typhimurium, and explored the underlying mechanisms using metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis. We found that acid-stressed 14028s was more sensitive to small molecule hydrophobic antibiotics (SMHA) while more resistant to meropenem (MERO). Metabolomic analysis revealed that enhanced sensitivity to SMHA was correlated with increased purine metabolism and tricarboxylic acid cycle. Transcriptomic analysis revealed the downregulation of chemotaxis-related genes, which are also associated with SMHA sensitivity. We also found a significant downregulation of the ompF gene, which encodes a major outer membrane protein OmpF of Salmonella. The decreased expression of OmpF porin hindered the influx of MERO, leading to enhanced resistance of the bacteria to the drug. Our findings contribute to greatly improve the understanding of the relationship between Salmonella metabolism, gene expression, and changes in drug resistance after acid stress, while providing a structural framework for exploring the relationship between bacterial stress responses and antibiotic resistance.
