Project description:The iron-binding glycoprotein lactoferrin exhibits anti-bacterial activity. To investigate the overall response of Bacillus cereus to lactoferrin, total transcriptome analyses were performed. Growth conditions were mMOD minimal medium, minimal medium plus 10 mg/ml lactoferrin, as well as minimal medium without iron source for comparison. Differential regulation of genes involved in iron acquisition as well as genes encoding enterotoxins and further virulence factors was of special interest.

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.

Project description:Candida albicans is the most prevalent fungal pathogen of humans, causing a variety of diseases ranging from superficial mucosal infections to deep-seated systemic infections. Mucus, the gel that coats all wet epithelial surfaces, accommodates Candida albicans as part of the regular microbiome where C. albicans resides asymptomatically in healthy humans. Through a series of in vitro experiments combined with genome-wide transcriptional profiling, we show that mucin biopolymers, the main gel-forming constituents of mucus, induce a new oval-shaped morphology in C. albicans in which a range of genes related to adhesion, filamentation, and biofilm formation are down-regulated. We also show that corresponding phenotypes are suppressed, rendering Candida incapable of forming biofilms on a range of different synthetic surfaces and human epithelial cells. Our data suggests that mucins can manipulate Candida physiology and we hypothesize that they are key regulators for retaining Candida in the host-compatible, commensal state. 3 biological replicates grown in log phase in the presence and absence of mucin for 8 hours. Experiments were performed using RPMI 1640 (Gibco 31800-089) buffered with 165mM MOPS and supplemented with 0.2% NaHCO3 and 2% glucose with and without 0.5% mucin.

Project description:Background; MUC2 mucin produced by intestinal goblet cells is the major component of the intestinal mucus barrier. MUC2 homo-oligomerizes intracellularly into large secreted polymers which give mucus its viscous properties. The inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) ulcerative colitis is characterized by depleted goblet cells and a reduced mucus layer, whereas goblet cells and the mucus layer are increased in the other major inflammatory bowel disease, Crohnâs disease. Methods and Findings; By murine N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea-mutagenesis we identified two distinct non-complementing missense mutations in Muc2 exons encoding N- and C-terminal homo-oligomerization domains causing an ulcerative colitis-like phenotype. Both strains developed mild spontaneous distal intestinal inflammation, chronic diarrhea, rectal bleeding and prolapse, increased susceptibility to acute and chronic colitis induced by a luminal toxin, aberrant Muc2 biosynthesis, smaller goblet cell thecae (less stored mucin) and a diminished mucus barrier. Enhanced local production of IL-1beta, TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma was seen in the distal colon. The number of leukocytes within mesenteric lymph nodes was increased five-fold and leukocytes cultured in vitro produced both Th1 and Th2 cytokines (IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha and IL-13). Intestinal permeability was increased and the luminal bacterial flora were more heavily coated with immunoglobulin as occurs in IBD. This pathology was accompanied by accumulation of the Muc2 precursor and ultrastructural and biochemical evidence of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in goblet cells, activation of the unfolded protein response, and altered intestinal expression of genes involved in ER stress, inflammation, apoptosis and wound repair. Expression of mutated Muc2 oligomerization domains in vitro demonstrated that aberrant Muc2 oligomerization underlies the ER stress. These models show that mutations in Muc2 oligomerization domains can lead to aberrant assembly of the Muc2 complex leading to ER stress, a depleted mucus barrier and intestinal inflammation. In ulcerative colitis we demonstrate similar accumulation of non-glycosylated MUC2 precursor in goblet cells together with ultrastructural and biochemical evidence of ER stress even in non-inflamed intestinal tissue. Conclusions; The observations that mucin misfolding and ER stress lead directly to intestinal inflammation and that ER stress and goblet cell pathology occur in ulcerative colitis suggest that ER stress-related mucin depletion could be a fundamental component of the pathogenesis of colitis. Experiment Overall Design: 3 individual mice from the Eeyore, Winnie or Wild-type strains were compared as groups. An Affymetrix ID was compared between groups if the ID was Present within two of the three mice within each grouping. IDs were compared by calculating the log2 of Group One average signal divided by Group 2 average signal.

Project description:In a healthy gut, microbes are often aggregated with host mucus, yet the molecular basis for this organization and its impact on intestinal health are unclear. Mucus is a viscous physical barrier separating resident microbes from epithelia, but also provides glycan cues that regulate microbial behaviors. Here, we describe a mucin-sensing pathway in an Aeromonas symbiont of zebrafish, Aer01. In response to the mucin-associated glycan N-acetylglucosamine, a sensor kinase regulates expression of an aggregation-promoting adhesin we named MbpA. Upon MbpA disruption, Aer01 colonizes to normal levels, but is largely planktonic and more immunogenic. Increasing cell surface MbpA rescues these traits. MbpA-like adhesins are common in human-associated bacteria and expression of an Akkermansia muciniphila MbpA-like adhesin in MbpA-deficient Aer01 restores lumenal aggregation and reverses its pro-inflammatory character. Our work demonstrates how resident bacteria use mucin glycans to modulate behaviors congruent with host health.

Project description:The human gut microbiota plays a central role in intestinal health and disease. However, many of its bacterial constituents are functionally still largely unexplored. A crucial prerequisite for bacterial survival and proliferation is the creation and/or exploitation of an own niche. For many bacterial species that are linked to human disease, the inner mucus layer was found to be an important niche. Allobaculum mucolyticum, is a novel, IBD-associated species that is thought be closely associated with the host epithelium. To explore how this bacterium is able to effectively colonize this niche, we screened its genome for factors that may contribute to mucosal colonization. We identified multiple secreted Carbohydrate Active Enzymes (CAZymes). These CAZymes are able to degrade mucin O-glycans after which some of the liberated monosaccharides can be utilized for bacterial growth. The enzymatic degradation of the mucin glycans may sensitize the mucus layer for further degradation and bacterial entry. Therefore, these enzymes may play a key role in bacterial colonization of the inner mucus layer, and thus may pose an interesting target for future therapeutic intervention.
