Sex drives colonic mucin sialylation in wild mice - RNAseq

ABSTRACT: Following observations that sex of wild animals is associated with the acidity of colonic mucin glycans, as determined via histology, RNA sequencing was undertaken to explore potential mechanisms driving these differences. Colonic tissue samples from 24 male mice trapped on the Isle of May in October 2019 were selected, encompassing a range of staining profiles, following Alcian Blue PAS staining of colonic tissue. Using IPA software Esr1 signalling was identified as the major upstream regulator of gene expression associated with varied mucin acidity.

RNAseq of scalp biopsies from EGFRi treated patients, who exhibited a folliculitis

Project description:EGFR/MEK inhibitor therapy induces a distinct inflammatory hair follicle response that includes a collapse of hair follicle immune privilege and differential modulation of IL-33 and IL-37 expression. Our findings suggest that successful future management of EGFRi/MEKi-induced folliculitis requires restoration of hair follicle immune privilege. In this RNAseq parietal scalp (rather than truncal skin) biopsies were taken from long-term (3-9 months) EGFRi-treated patients exhibiting folliculitis (Chronic-EGFRi) or from patients prior to commencing and after two weeks of EGFRi therapy (Acute-EGFRi), compared to normal scalp skin.

B3GNT7 regulates mucin O-glycosylation to alleviate colonic inflammation

Project description:B3GNT7, an important glycosyltransferase highly expressed in intestinal epithelial cells, is involved in physiological processes in the intestine. This study presents novel findings on the potential role and mechanism of B3GNT7 in ulcerative colitis (UC). DSS-induced mouse model of colitis was established to investigate the expression of B3GNT7 in the colon using transcriptomics and immunohistochemistry. Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to explore the biological functions of B3GNT7. The correlation between the transcription levels of B3GNT7 in the colonic tissues of UC patients from the IBDMDB database was analyzed and the severity of colonic inflammation, along with potential mechanisms. The DSS-induced colitis mouse model was successfully established, and transcriptomic analysis revealed a significant downregulation of B3GNT7 expression in the colonic tissues compared to healthy mice. Functional enrichment analysis showed that the main biological function of B3GNT7 was to participate in the mucin O-glycosylation process. Protein interaction analysis indicates that the molecules showing strong interaction with B3GNT7 were members of the mucin MUC family, including MUC2, MUC3, and MUC6. In UC patients, the transcription levels of B3GNT7 were significantly decreased, particularly in patients with moderate to severe disease activity. The expression level of B3GNT7 was negatively correlated with the endoscopic severity of UC. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) further revealed significant enrichment of B3GNT7 in the mucin O-glycosylation synthesis signaling pathway. The downregulation of B3GNT7 expression in the colonic tissues of UC may contribute to impaired mucin barrier function and the progression of colitis.

RNAseq of organ-cultured human hair follicles exposed to MEKi (Cobimetinib)

Project description:EGFR/MEK inhibitor therapy induces a distinct inflammatory hair follicle response that includes a collapse of hair follicle immune privilege and differential modulation of IL-33 and IL-37 expression. Our findings suggest that successful future management of EGFRi/MEKi-induced folliculitis requires restoration of hair follicle immune privilege. In this RNAseq organ-cultured human hair follicles were directly exposed to MEKi (Cobimetinib) or the control DMSO (n=5 patients (6-8 hair follicles per patient)).

Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier Inhibition Activates the Integrated Stress Response in Human Hair Follicles - RNAseq

Project description:UK-5099 is a pharmacological inhibitor of MPC1, a protein that transports pyruvate into mitochondria. Human hair follicles were treated with vehicle, and 10 µM and 40 µM UK-5099 for 48h ex vivo. RNASeq was performed to determine whether MPC1 inhibition induces transcriptional changes in the hair follicle.

A universal protocol for isolating retinal ON bipolar cells across species via fluorescence-activated cell sorting - RNAseq of cell populations

Project description:Many inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are characterized by progressive degeneration and loss of light-sensitive photoreceptors. The most promising treatment concept for IRDs is gene supplementation therapy with viral vectors, which relies on the presence of viable photoreceptors at the time of intervention. At later stages, when the pathology is too advanced, photoreceptors are lost and cannot be rescued. For late-stage patients, conferring light sensing abilities to the remaining ON circuit interneurons (i.e., ON bipolar cells) using optogenetic tools poses an alternative treatment approach. However, the development of such therapies is hampered by the lack of efficient gene delivery tools targeting ON bipolar cells, which in turn rely on effective cell isolation for tool development. In this work we have developed a pipeline to isolate ON bipolar cells by relying on the recognition of two intracellular markers and the isolation via fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). As fixation proved to be a necessary prerequisite, RNA sequencing and real-time PCR were used not only to confirm the identity of the isolated ON bipolar cells but also to prove the compatibility of this method with highly sensitive techniques. Moreover, we have shown that this protocol can be applied without any substantial modification to the retinas of wild-type and Rd1 mutant mice as well as retinas of non-human primates (NHP).

Ruminococcus torques is a keystone degrader of intestinal mucin glycoprotein, releasing oligosaccharides used by Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron

Project description:Symbiotic interactions between humans and our communities of resident gut microbes (microbiota) play many roles in health and disease. Some gut bacteria utilize mucus as a nutrient source and can under certain conditions damage the protective barrier it forms, increasing disease susceptibility. We investigated how Ruminococcus torques—a known mucin-degrader that remains poorly studied despite its implication in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs)— degrades mucin glycoproteins or their component O-linked glycans to understand its effects on the availability of mucin-derived nutrients for other bacteria. We found that R. torques utilizes both mucin glycoproteins and released oligosaccharides from gastric and colonic mucins, degrading these substrates with a panoply of mostly constitutively expressed, secreted enzymes. Investigation of mucin oligosaccharide degradation by R. torques revealed strong fucosidase, sialidase and b1,4-galactosidase activities. There was a lack of detectable sulfatase and weak β1,3-galactosidase degradation, resulting in accumulation of glycans containing these structures on mucin polypeptides. While the Gram-negative symbiont, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron grows poorly on mucin glycoproteins, we demonstrate a clear ability of R. torques to liberate products from mucins, making them accessible to B. thetaiotaomicron. This work underscores the diversity of mucin-degrading mechanisms in different bacterial species and the probability that some species are contingent on others for the ability to more fully access mucin-derived nutrients. The ability of R. torques to directly degrade a variety of mucin and mucin glycan structures and unlock released glycans for other species suggests that it is a keystone mucin degrader, which may contribute to its association with IBD.

Campylobacter jejuni Utilization of Mucin

Project description:While growing in the human intestine, C. jejuni grows within the mucus layer. The largest constituents of this layer are the large mucin glycoproteins. A transcriptomic profile of C. jejuni NCTC11168 growing in a mucin-containing minimal medium seeks to describe the effect of the presence of mucin proteins on the transcriptome of C. jejuni. Microarray data was collected from three independent biological replicates and 9 technical replicates for each biological replicate.
