Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough, is an extracellular, strictly human pathogen. However, it hasbeen shown thatB. pertussiscells can escape phagocytic killing and survive in macrophages upon internalization. Ourtime-resolved RNA-seq data suggest thatB. pertussisefficiently adapts to the intramacrophage environment andresponds to host bactericidal activities. We show that this adaptive response is multifaceted and, surprisingly, relatedto the BvgAS two-component system, a master regulator of virulence. Our results show that the expression of thisregulatory circuit is downregulated upon internalization. Moreover, we demonstrate that the switch to the avirulentBvg−phase augments a very complex process based on the adjustment of central and energy metabolism, cell wallreinforcement, maintenance of appropriate redox and metal homeostasis, and repair of damaged macromolecules.Nevertheless, not all observed effects could be simply attributed to the transition to Bvg−phase, suggesting thatadditional regulators are involved in the adaptation to the intramacrophage environment. Interestingly, a largenumber of genes required for the metabolism of sulphur were strongly modulated within macrophages. In particular,the mutant lacking two genes encoding cysteine dioxygenases displayed strongly attenuated cytotoxicity towardTHP-1 cells. Collectively, our results suggest that intracellularB. pertussiscells have adopted the Bvg−mode toacclimate to the intramacrophage environment and respond to antimicrobial activities elicited by THP-1 cells.Therefore, we hypothesize that the avirulent phase represents an authentic phenotype of internalizedB. pertussiscells.
