Project description:The aim of the study is to evaluate Pit-1-induced genes in the MCF-7 cell line The Pit-1 transcription factor (also known as POU1F1) plays a critical role in cell differentiation during organogenesis of the anterior pituitary in mammals and is a transcriptional activator for pituitary gene transcription. Increased expression of Pit-1 has been reported in human tumorigenic breast cells. Here, we found that Pit-1 overexpression or knockdown in human breast cancer cell lines induced profound phenotypic changes in the expression of proteins involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion. In immunodeficient mice, Pit-1 overexpression induced tumoral growth and promoted metastasis in lung. In patients with invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast and node-positive tumors elevated expression of Pit-1 was significantly and independently associated with the occurrence of distant metastasis. These findings suggest that Pit-1 could help to make a more accurate prognosis in patients with node positive breast cancer and may represent a new therapeutic target (Journal of Clinical Investigation 2010, 120:4289-4302) MCF-7 cells were transfected with the pcDNA3 (control, two samples as condition, named C1 and C2) or the pcDNA3-Pit-1 overexpression vector (two samples as condition, named 1+ and 2+) for 48 hours.

Project description:A comparative proteomic analysis of grapevine leaves from the resistant genotype V. davidii ‘LiuBa-8’ (LB) and susceptible genotype V. vinifera ‘Pinot Noir’ (PN) at 12 hpi was conducted to understand the complex relationship between grapevine and P. viticola and the molecular mechanisms between difference resistant vitis genotypes at the early stage of infection. A total of 444 and 349 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in LB and PN respectively at 12 hpi by iTRAQ. MapMan analysis showed that the majority of these DEPs were related to photosynthesis, metabolism, stress and redox. More up-expressed DEPs involved in photosynthesis and less down-expressed DEPs involved in metabolism contribute to the resistance in LB. PR10.2, PR10.3, HSF70.2 and HSP90.6 are proposed to be key proteins in both compatible and incompatible interactions. Accumulation H2O2 established the ROS signaling in incompatible interaction and APXs, GSTs maybe associated with the resistance of grapevine against downy mildew. Moreover, we verified four proteins to ensure the accuracy of proteome data using PRM. Overall, these data provide new insights into molecular events and provide valuable candidate proteins that could be used to illuminate molecular mechanisms underlying the incompatible and compatible interaction in early stage and eventually to be exploited to develop new protection strategy against downy mildew in grapevine.

Project description:Cold storage (CS) is widely used to extend fruit postharvest. In peach, chilling injuries may cause intense juice loss leading to a dry âwoollyâ texture of the fruit flesh. The disturbance, named woolliness, is associated to abnormal pectin metabolism and results in anatomical and physiological alterations. Application of gibberellic acid (GA) at the initial stages of pit hardening has been shown to impair woolliness incidence, however the mechanisms controlling the response remain unknown. We have employed genome wide transcription analyses to investigate the effects of GA application and CS of peaches. Approximately half (48.26%, 13846) of the investigated genes exhibited significant differential expression in response to the treatments. Gene ontology classes associated to cellular and developmental processes were overrepresented among the differentially regulated genes, whereas sequences classified in cell death and immune response categories were underrepresented. Gene set enrichment analyses demonstrated a predominant role of CS in repressing the transcription of genes associated to cell wall metabolism. In contrast, genes involved in hormone metabolism and signaling exhibited a more complex transcriptional response to the factors, indicating an extensive network of crosstalk between GA and low temperatures. Time course transcriptional profiling analyses also confirmed the involvement of cell wall metabolism genes in woolliness onset in peach. Overall, our results provide further insights on the mechanisms controlling the complex phenotypes associated to postharvest textural changes in peach. Four samples (CONT, CONTcs, GA3, GA3cs), each with three biological replicates (R1, R2 and R3), were analyzed. Control samples (CONT and CONTcs) consist of peach mesocarp not treated with GA3 at pit hardening, and either assayed at harvest (CONT) or after 15 days of cold storage (CONTcs). GA3 samples (GA3 and GA3cs) consist of peach mesocarp treated with GA3 at pit hardening, and either assayed at harvest (GA3) or after 15 days of cold storage (GA3cs).

Project description:Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. conlutinans (Foc) is a serious root-invading and xylem-colonizing fungus that causes yellowing in Brassica oleracea. To comprehensively understand the interaction between F. oxysporum and B. oleracea, composition of the xylem sap proteome of the non-infected and Foc-infected plants was investigated in both resistant and susceptible cultivars using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) after in-solution digestion of xylem sap proteins. Whole genome sequencing of Foc was carried out and generated a predicted Foc protein database. The predicted Foc protein database was then combined with the public B. oleracea and B. rapa protein databases downloaded from Uniprot and used for protein identification. About 200 plant proteins were identified in the xylem sap of susceptible and resistant plants. Comparison between the non-infected and Foc-infected samples revealed that Foc infection causes changes to the protein composition in B. oleracea xylem sap where repressed proteins accounted for a greater proportion than those of induced in both the susceptible and resistant reactions. The analysis on the proteins with concentration change >=2 fold indicated a large portion of up- and down-regulated proteins were those acting on carbohydrates. Proteins with leucine-rich repeats and legume lectin domains were mainly induced in both resistant and susceptible system, so was the case of thaumatins. Twenty-five Foc proteins were identified in the infected xylem sap and ten of them were cysteine-containing secreted small proteins that are good candidates for virulence and/or avirulence effectors. The findings of differential response of protein contents in the xylem sap between the non-infected and Foc-infected samples as well as the Foc candidate effectors secreted in xylem provide valuable insights into B. oleracea-Foc interactions.

Project description:Ticks are among the most economically important arthropod parasites due to the heavy infestations they provoke, affecting human and animal health and food production. Ticks are also important vectors of pathogens, mediating the dispersion of livestock and zoonotic diseases. Some examples of livestock diseases vectored by ticks include bovine babesiosis, anaplasmosis, theileriosis, and/or heartwater disease, all of which are enlisted by the World Organization for Animals as possible threats to animals and public health. The family Ixodidae (hard ticks) is of veterinary relevance, and many ixodid tick species within the genera Ixodes, Dermacentor, Amblyomma, Haemophysalis, Hyalomma, and Rhipicephalus, among others, impact farming production worldwide. However, there is no doubt that most pernicious tick species is Rhipicephalus microplus, commonly known as the southern cattle fever tick. This specie is not only the major economically important tick parasite for livestock production, but it is also the vector of Babesia bovis and B. bigemina, the causal agents of babesiosis, a severe disease that affects cattle from tropical and subtropical regions. Currently, global economic losses of the cattle industry attributable to R. microplus are estimated at around $18.7 US billion dollars per year. The economic impact is the leading reason to develop different strategies to constrains R. microplus and its vector-borne pathogens, including chemical, mechanical or environmental treatments, biological control, and/or genetic methods. Chemical, among other methods, are the most frequently applied, but the intense use worldwide, has led to the selection of acaricidal-resistant ticks populations. The molecular adaptations of ticks to overcome the effects of acaricides (e.g., deltamethrin, cypermethrin, amitraz, ivermectin) includes metabolic detoxification mechanisms and/or the selection of mutated molecular targets. Recently, a couple of systematic reviews pointed out a significant increment in the number of studies intended to understand the acaricidal resistance in ticks. These reports highlighted the acaricide resistance observed in R. microplus and the wide geographical dispersion of this problem. Whereas many acaricide-resistant R. microplus populations have been reported in Brazil, India, and Mexico, the lack of strict regulatory policies on tick control, leaving the application of acaricides at discretion of farmers. Therefore, the correct implementation of existing strategies together with novel sustainable control methods may be crucial to safeguard livestock production in the context of growing population and global warming. However, until the implementation of such sanitary measures becomes the rule, the main control strategy will still rely on the use of chemical acaricides, such as ivermectin (IVM). Ivermectin is an antiparasitic macrocyclic lactone used to control the populations of R. microplus and other ticks in livestock farming. As occurs in other countries, in Mexico ivermectin is the primary synthetic antiparasitic drug, and its abuse during the last three decades represents an important selection pressure that boosted the development of ivermectin-resistant populations of R. microplus. Therefore, the understanding of the molecular basis of the R. microplus resistance to ivermectin, especially in those cases occurring in tropical and subtropical areas of developing countries, can help to underpin the development of novel strategies to tackle this problem. In this context, omics tools can provide helpful information for the discovery of the molecular mechanisms behind the ivermectin resistance in R. microplus and other related tick species. Previous studies identified the main proteomic components of ovaries of R. microplus, including proteins involved in protein synthesis, post-translational modification, nuclear regulation, cytoskeleton, proteasome, transcriptional regulation, energetic metabolism, detoxification metabolism, or energy storage. Recently, the vitellogenin receptor (VgR) was suggested as a target for tick control because of its essential role in egg formation and maturation. However, molecular information on tick ovaries currently available limits explores the feasibility of VgR or other reproduction-related molecules as promissory targets for tick control.

Project description:The socioeconomic burden of snakebite in India is largely attributed to the ‘big four’ snakes, completely neglecting the considerable impact of envenoming by many other snake species. Bites from the so-called ‘neglected many’ are often treated with a polyvalent antivenom that is manufactured against the ‘big four’ snakes - a strategy that has been widely documented to fail. Yet, specific antivenoms are not commercially manufactured against these snakes. While the medical importance of various species of cobras, saw-scaled vipers, and kraits is very well-known, the clinical impact of pit vipers from the rainforests of the Western Ghats, northeastern India, and Andaman and Nicobar islands has remained elusive. Amongst the 90+ species of snakes found in the Western Ghats, the hump-nosed (Hypnale hypnale), Malabar (Craspedocephalus malabaricus) and bamboo (Craspedocephalus gramineus) pit vipers can potentially inflict clinically severe envenoming in humans. To evaluate the severity of toxicity inflicted by these snakes, we characterised their venom composition, biochemical and pharmacological activities, and toxicity- and morbidity-inducing potentials. Our findings highlight the therapeutic inadequacies of the generic Indian and Hypnale-specific Sri Lankan polyvalent antivenoms in neutralising morbidity and mortality resulting from pit viper envenomings and underscore the need for a regional antivenom therapy in India.

Project description:The fungal pathogen Fusarium moniliforme causes ear rot in maize. Ear rot in maize is a destructive disease globally caused by Fusarium moniliforme , due to decrease of grain yield and increase of risks in raising livestock by mycotoxins production. Plants have developed various defense pathways to cope with pathogens. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression during the infection process of Fusarium moniliforme in its host plant to get insights into the defense programs and the host processes potentially involved in plant defense against this pathogen. Experiment Overall Design: In two compared independent experiments plants were infected with the Fusarium moniliforme. Samples from infected bracts of resistant maize (Bt-1) as well as susceptible maize (Ye478) were taken at 4 days post infection. Samples from uninfected control plants were taken at the same time points. For example: R0 (control) and RT (treat) in Bt-1 and S0 (control) and ST (treat) in Ye478.
