Edward Mallinckrodt Department of Pediatrics

The primary aim of the teaching program of the Department of Pediatrics is to stimulate interest in developmental biology — in particular, human growth and development — to provide students with a foundation sufficiently comprehensive to have an appreciation of clinical pediatric problems, regardless of their future career choices in medicine.

The major clinical and research facilities are in St. Louis Children's Hospital, and the newborn services are at the Women and Infants Center. St. Louis Children's Hospital is a facility with 300 beds that accepts patients through 21 years of age with all types of medical and surgical problems. Hospital admissions average 11,200 annually. Pediatric medical ambulatory activity, including subspecialty and emergency visits, averages about 152,000 visits a year. Nearly 4,000 infants are born annually at the Washington University Medical Center.

Using candidate gene sequencing, exome sequencing, whole genome sequencing, and computational prediction and filtering strategies for the discovery of deleterious variants in population-based cohorts, case-control cohorts, and trios of affected infant and parents, our laboratory focuses on discovering novel candidate genes associated with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and understanding the contribution of genetic variation in candidate genes of the pulmonary surfactant metabolic pathway (including surfactant protein B, surfactant protein C, NKX2-1, and ABCA3) to the risk of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.

Vikas Dharnidharka, MD, MPH
Northwest Tower, 10th Floor
Phone: 314-286-1574

The focus of this lab is on clinical and translational research in childhood kidney disease. Our group is involved in several different types of clinical and translational research, including multicenter clinical intervention trials to improve teen adherence with transplant medications and to test new medications in children on dialysis; translational biomarker studies in transplant acute and chronic rejection and genomic studies or post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease; and large transplant database epidemiological analyses for associations of immunosuppressive regimens with efficacy and morbidity balance.

Our research team studies the epidemiology, microbial virulence mechanisms, and host defenses against community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) colonization, transmission and disease. We are investigating the transmission dynamics of CA-MRSA in households as well as interventions to interrupt the transmission of CA-MRSA and to prevent subsequent infections. Our lab also explores the microbial and host genomic determinants as well as the host immune response to staphylococcal toxins implicated in the pathogenesis of CA-MRSA in patients across the spectrum of disease states. Our goal is to develop novel approaches for the prevention of CA-MRSA infections.

Our focus is on the extracellular matrix in vascular development and disease. Specifically, we study the extracellular matrix proteins that make up the elastic fibers of blood vessels. Elastic fibers convey elasticity to blood vessels, allowing large arteries to store energy during systole and release it during diastole. Abnormalities in elastic fiber components lead to various complications, including hypertension, stiff vessels, and aneurysms. In the laboratory, we utilize mouse models to understand how abnormalities in these proteins lead to disease, which helps us not only to learn about the normal function of these proteins but also to identify potential novel therapeutic targets.

The research in the laboratory focuses on chronic kidney disease and its complications of the chronic kidney disease mineral bone disorder syndrome, which involves skeletal frailty, cardiovascular disease, and vascular calcification. The lab has discovered important new pathologic mechanisms of disease leading to vascular calcification through systemic effects of factors involved in renal repair and hyperphosphatemia. Translational studies that continue to develop new therapeutic approaches are being aggressively pursued. New therapies for chronic kidney disease and its complications are being studied in clinical trials.

Work in our lab focuses on the interactions of pathogenic bacteria with their hosts. We aim to elucidate the modulation of host immune responses by pathogens and to determine the mechanisms by which these bacteria present specific virulence factors on their surfaces. Currently, we use cultured bladder epithelial cell models and murine models of cystitis to investigate the ability of uropathogenic Escherichia coli to modulate host innate and adaptive immune responses. In addition, we are studying the molecular mechanisms by which selected outer membrane proteins contribute to the virulence of uropathogenic E. coli. Our primary goal is to discover novel targets for interventions that will prevent and better treat bacterial infections of the urinary tract. Along these lines, we are leveraging recent discoveries in UTI pathogenesis to design nanoparticle-based therapies for the prevention of acute and recurrent UTI. We have also launched a new translational study of immune responses to UTI in male and female infants, paired with an innovative new mouse model of male UTI that permits first-ever studies of sex differences in these infections.

M65 Peds 839 Antimicrobial Use, Resistance, and Stewardship

In 2013, the CDC estimated that 23,000 Americans die annually from antibiotic-resistant infections, and an additional two million are infected with one of these difficult-to-treat pathogens. The primary driver of this resistance is the use -- and, more importantly, the misuse -- of antibiotics. In 2015, the White House published the National Action Plan for Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria. This plan calls for improvement in antimicrobial use in human and agricultural medicine, better diagnostics, increased collaboration domestically and internationally, and the accelerated development of new antibiotic agents. This fourth-year elective rotation will be focused on educating the student on the current state of domestic and global antibiotic resistance and the mechanisms by which health care systems are addressing this problem. The student will participate in the daily antimicrobial stewardship activities conducted at St. Louis Children's Hospital, attend weekly stewardship and clinical infectious diseases meetings both at the hospital and BJC system levels, review antimicrobial use data, and participate in hands-on activities in the microbiology laboratory. At the end of this rotation, the student will be able to do the following: (1) List the antimicrobials and the pathogens they effectively treat; (2) Analyze bacteria for genotypic and phenotypic resistance through standard and rapid microbiologic techniques; (3) Describe the antimicrobial stewardship interventions that can be implemented in different health care settings; (4) List the social determinants that impact antimicrobial stewardship programs; and (5) Explain how the microbiome and resistome are important in our efforts to improve antimicrobial use.
