ABSTRACT: Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans CaLY188 compared to the wild type SN152 A fluconazole-resistant variant Candida albicans strain CaLY188 with trisomy of Chromosome R was selected to carry out the expression profile microarray. Two-condition experiment, CaLY188 vs.SN152. Biological replicates: 2 control, 2 transfected, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans comparing SDH2 deletion mutant cells with the wild-type cells in both Spider medium and Spider medium supplemented with 100mM glucose The SDH2 deletion mutant sdh2Î/Î and the wild-type strain SC5314 were used to perform the microarray experiments. Two-condition experiments: sdh2Î/Î vs SC5314 in Spider midium and sdh2Î/Î vs SC5314 in Spider midium supplemented with 100mM glucose. Biological replicates: 3 SDH2 deletion mutant sdh2Î/Î samples (test group), 3 wild-type strain SC5314 samples (control group), independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Candida albicans comparing fluconazole treated cells with fluconazole- and berberine-treated cells, as well untreated cells with berberine treated cells Three different clinical FLC-resistant strains (0304103, 01010 and 632) were selected to carry out the expression profile microarray. Two-condition experiment, fluconazole-treated vs. fluconazole- and berberine-treated cells, and untreated cells vs. berberine-treated cells. Biological replicates: 3 control, 3 transfected, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array.
Project description:Azole resistance and varying degrees of cross-resistance to other members of the azole family in clinical isolates have been documented, which has necessitated additional and prolonged use of the antifungal agents available. 2-Amino-Nonyl-6-Methoxyl-Tetralin Muriate (10b), a novel chemical structural aminotetralin derivate, is synthesized as an antifungal agent and exibited strong antifungal activity. To further investigated the action mechanism, we used microarray analysis to investigate the genes expression profiles of C. albicans cells treated or untreated with 10b and found 957 genes were differentially expressed. Of them,457 showed a decrease in expression and 500 showed an increase in expression. 33 down-regulated genes were involved in glycolysis (e.g., PFK1, CDC19 and HXK2), fermentation (e.g., PDC11, ALD5 and ADH1) and respiratory electron transport chain (e.g., CBP3, COR1 and QCR8). 30 differentially expressed genes were found to relate to biofilm formation, filamentous or hyphal growth. It was noticed that striking up-regulation of SFL1 and marked down-regulation of YWP1 directly related to prevent C. albicans from changing its morphology from the yeast form to the hyphal. Two genes related to specifically hydrolyzing beta-1, 3 glucan (e.g., XOG1) and chitin (e.g., CHT1) were significantly increased. 40 overexpressed genes and 15 down-regulated genes were related to the lipid metabolic process. Of them, Eight were directly linked to ergosterol biosynthesis, including ERG2, ERG6 and ERG11. 99 genes related to translation were down-regulated following exposure to 10b, which account for 21.66% in down-regulated genes. This suggested that translation might be lower in SC5314 cells exposed to 10b than in control. Total RNA from the control SC5314 cells and 10b-treated SC5314 cells were used to generate target cDNA, and then hybridized to 8k Candida albicans Genome Array Genechips, representing about 7925 characterized Candida albicans genes. Two independent experiments were conducted. Reference strain was control SC5314 cells and test strain was SC5314 cells treated with 10b.
Project description:Biomaterial infections are an increasingly alarming problem, and because of their intrinsic recalcitrance to conventional therapy, a new class of antifungal drugs must be explored. 10b, a 2-aminotetralin derivate, was synthesized as a novel chemical structural antifungal agent and exibited strong anti-biofilm activity. To further investigate the action mechanism, we used microarray analysis to investigate the genes expression profiles of C. albicans biofilms treated or untreated with 10b and found 150 genes were differentially expressed. Of them, 69 showed a decrease in expression and 81 showed an increase in expression -10 differentially expressed genes related to biofilm formation, Filamentous or hypha growth. A gene related to specifically hydrolyzing β-1, 3 glucan was significantly increased. 10 down-regulated genes were involved in glycolysis, fermentation and active oxygen scavenging. 15 overexpressed genes were related to the lipid metabolic process. Of them, 13 genes were directly linked to ergosterol biosynthesis including ERG2, ERG6 and ERG11. 10 genes related to translation were over-expressed. Among them, 2 genes involved in negative regulation of transcription were significantly up-regulated. Total RNA from the control SC5314 biofilms and 10b-treated SC5314 biofilms were used to generate target cDNA, and then hybridized to 8k Candida albicans Genome Array Genechips, representing about 7925 characterized Candida albicans genes. Two independent experiments were conducted. Reference strain was control SC5314 biofilms and test strain was SC5314 biofilms treated with 10b.
