Project description:Archaeological dental calculus has emerged as a rich source of ancient biomolecules, including proteins. Previous analyses of proteins extracted from ancient dental calculus revealed the presence of the dietary milk protein β-lactoglobulin, providing direct evidence of dairy consumption in the archaeological record. However, the potential for calculus to preserve other food-related proteins has not yet been systematically explored. Here we analyse shotgun metaproteomic data from 100 archaeological dental calculus samples ranging from the Iron Age to the post-medieval period (8thC BC - 19thC AD) in Britain, as well as dental calculus from contemporary dental patients and recently deceased individuals, to characterise the range and extent of dietary proteins preserved in dental calculus. In addition to milk proteins, we detected proteomic evidence of foodstuffs such as cereals and plant products, as well as the digestive enzyme salivary amylase. We discuss the importance of optimized protein extraction methods, data analysis approaches, and authentication strategies in the identification of dietary proteins from archaeological dental calculus. Our ability to detect dietary proteins, although limited, demonstrates the potential of these methods to robustly identify foodstuffs in the archaeological record that are under-represented due to their poor preservation.

Project description:A deeper understanding of malaria parasite development inside the Anopheles mosquito may lead to the identification of processes that can be targeted by transmission-blocking interventions. Paraquat (1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridylium dichloride) is a potent superoxide-inducing agent that impacts Plasmodium ookinete development, especially at higher concentrations. Compounds like Paraquat can potentially induce an oxidative imbalance in the mosquito midgut during ookinete maturation, essentially super-stressing the parasite leading to the arrested development of ookinetes, the only stage that can invade through a mosquito midgut cell to establish an oocyst infection in the mosquito. The mosquito midgut has evolved to handle the natural production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS, respectively) as a result of feeding on blood. The addition of Paraquat to a bloodmeal is expected to induce a cognate response in the midgut to handle the excess ROS/RNS, and high concentrations of this compound can potentially overwhelm the midgut response leading to mosquito death. While several studies have explored the effect of Paraquat on malaria parasites, a fundamental understanding of the mosquito response to this compound remains unknown. Here, we quantified the mosquito midgut proteomic response to a Paraquat-laced sugar meal to understand the intrinsic midgut response (in the absence of a bloodmeal). We then carried out transcriptomic analysis of the mosquito midgut for several antioxidants of the Trx and GSH pathways to compare concordance or discordance between protein and its transcripts during different oxidative stress conditions. Finally, we determined whether the same Trx and GSH pathways are upregulated following infection with either P. falciparum or P. berghei at 24 hrs post-blood feeding, coinciding with the time point for maximal ookinete traversal of the midgut. We discuss the potential selective action of Paraquat on the parasite and the intrinsic tolerance of the mosquito midgut to Paraquat-mediated oxidative stress.

Project description:A general understanding of redox homeostasis in An. gambiae midgut epithelial cells under different oxidative conditions during P. falciparum ookinete invasion is missing. We used an ex vivo midgut culture model to understand AgTrx-1 protein expression pattern in An. gambiae midguts under oxidative stress of the ROS inducer, tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBHP). We then quantified the midgut proteomic expression profile to understand organ-level regulation of the response to oxidative stress. An. gambiae midguts under low (50M) and high (200M) tBHP concentrations were enriched in ribosomal proteins (RPs), consistent with cells undergoing ribosomal/nucleolar stress. Nevertheless, these midguts were also enriched in peptidases, integral membrane proteins, and cytochrome P450s indicating cells that are undergoing protein processing and folding through post-translational modification (PTMs), and detoxification of toxic compounds through active efflux. This response to oxidative stress was strikingly dissimilar to that observed from previous studies with another dipteran, Drosophila following oxidative stress induction. Our data indicates that the response to tBHP induced oxidative stress is mild and suggests that the associated antioxidant response is similar to what is observed during midgut invasion of P. falciparum okinete. Furthermore, our data shows that ribosomal/nucleolar stress is crucial in the regulation of oxidative stress in An. gambiae midguts. Given this importance, its possible to develop mechanisms to perturb this ribosomal/nucleolar stress response in An. gambiae resulting into unmanageable levels of oxidative stress exposure to Plasmodium parasite in the midgut, yet still allowing the mosquito to survive the perturbation. Unmanageable levels of oxidative stress could result to harmful effect to the Plasmodium and eventually its death resulting into halting of its transmission.

Project description:The objectives of this study were to assess differences in Bone Marrow Derived Menenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) during co-culture with myeloma cells, and to assess differences in myeloma patient MSCs compared to normal donor MSCs. In the study presented here, a Bone Marrow Derived Menenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) were analyzed after FACS sorting from 2 week culture in osteogenic media lacking dexamethasone in 3D silk scaffold matrices either in co-culture with the multiple myeloma cell line GFP+Luc+MM1.S or Alone, as controls. Also, monocultures of MSCs grown in 2D, in MSC expansion media, from Normal Donor Controls (ND) or Multiple myeloma patients (MM) were analyzed. Analysis was done looking at microRNA expression in samples with the nanoString microRNA platform for 800 microRNAs.

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health problem and we lack a comprehensive understanding of how Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) infection impacts host immune responses. We compared, at two timepoints, the induced immune response to TB antigen, BCG and IL-1β stimulation between latently M. tb infected individuals (LTBI) and active TB patients. The immune response was stimulated using the TruCulture system with the corresponding stimulations: TB antigen, BCG, 1L1b, and the Nanostring platform was used to assess the gene expression profiles of the samples. The Nanostring platform was used to evaluate the gene expression

Project description:Understanding human Regulatory T cell (Treg) heterogeneity may identify markers of disease pathogenesis and facilitate the development of optimized cellular therapeutics. Previous analysis revealed that the co-inhibitory receptor T-cell immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif domain (TIGIT) was highly expressed on tTreg. The negative regulator TIGIT and the co-stimulatory factor CD226 bind the common ligand CD155. Human regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25+CD127-/lo) from adult peripheral blood were sub-fractionated based on the markers CD226 and TIGIT and were subsequently expanded in vitro according to clinical expansion protocols. The transcriptional profile of the final cell products uncovered considerable heterogeneity in terms of in vitro expansion and suppressive capacity. Most notably, the CD226+TIGIT- fraction adopted a transcriptional profile most similar to that of conventional T cells, including the capacity for effector cytokine production. Tregs and corresponding Tconv were expanded from peripheral blood of three normal healthy control male subjects.

Project description:Using outcome after long term follow-up to define risk at disease presentation high risk (n=9 who went on to require liver transplantation) and low risk (n=7 who responded fully to UDCA) patients were identified and their first liver biopsies retrieved. RNA was successfully extracted and analysed using nanostring® transcriptomics. Patients with progressive disease appear to have a distinct molecular signature. high risk (n=9 who went on to require liver transplantation) and low risk (n=7 who responded fully to UDCA) patient material was processed along with non-diseased control liver (n=8)
