Improved Biocompatibility of Amino-functionalized Graphene Oxide in Caenorhabditis elegans

ABSTRACT: Graphene oxide (GO) holds high promise for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in nanomedicine but reportedly displays immunotoxicity, underlining the need for developing functionalized GO with improved biocompatibility. Here, we study the adverse effects of GO and amino-functionalized GO (GONH2) during Caenorhabditis elegans development and ageing upon acute or chronic exposure. Chronic GO treatment throughout the C. elegans development causes decreased fecundity and a reduction of animal size, while acute treatment does not lead to any measurable physiological decline. However, RNA-Seq data reveal that acute GO exposure induces innate immune gene expression. The p38 MAP kinase, PMK-1, which is a well-established master regulator of innate immunity, protects C. elegans from chronic GO toxicity, as pmk-1 mutants show reduced tissue-functionality and facultative vivipary. In a direct comparison, GONH2 exposure does not cause detrimental effects in the wild type or in pmk-1 mutants, and the innate immune response is considerably less pronounced. Our work establishes the enhanced biocompatibility of amino-functionalized GO in a whole-organism, emphasizing its potential as biomedical nanomaterial.

Single-cell mass cytometry reveals the impact of graphene nanomaterials with human primary immune cells

Project description:The genome-wide transcriptome analysis highlight the increased biocompatibility on immune cells of graphene functionalized with amino groups (NH2) compared with graphene oxide (GO); reducing the cell metabolism disfunction. Moreover, GONH2 was found to polarizes T-cell and monocyte activation toward a T helper-1/M1 immune response.

In vitro biocompatibility of ZrO2 vs Y-TZP alloys on Saos-2 cells: influence of composition and surface topography

Project description:This study assess the biocompatibility of ZrO2 vs Y-TZP alloys on Saos-2 cells, through the combination of conventional toxicological assay, morphological observations and transcriptomic analysis performed on Saos-2 cells. The biocompatibility of ZrO2 alloys was evaluated in comparison with Y-TZP alloys, studying cell proliferation (WST-1) and cell morphology/adhesion (SEM) on human Saos-2 cell lines. Finally, an evaluation of gene expression was performed on Y-TZP alloys rough surface that seems more interesting regarding biocompatibility results.

Conserved nutrient sensor O-GlcNAc transferase is integral to the C. elegans pathogen-specific immune response

Project description:Discriminating pathogenic bacteria from energy-harvesting commensals is key to host immunity. Using mutants defective in the enzymes of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) cycling, we examined the role of this nutrient-sensing pathway in the Caenorhabidits elegans innate immune response. Using whole genome transcriptional profiling, O-GlcNAc cycling mutants exhibited deregulation of unique stress- and immune-responsive genes as well as genes shared with the p38 MAPK/PMK-1 pathway. Moreover, genetic analysis showed that deletion of O-GlcNAc transferase (ogt-1) yielded animals hypersensitive to the human pathogen S. aureus but not to P. aeruginosa. Genetic interaction studies further revealed that nutrient-responsive OGT-1 acts through the conserved ß-catenin (BAR-1) pathway and in concert with p38 MAPK/PMK-1 to modulate the immune response to S. aureus. The participation of the nutrient sensor O-GlcNAc transferase in an immunity module conserved from C. elegans to humans reveals an unexplored nexus between nutrient availability and a pathogen-specific immune response. In C. elegans, three mutant strains(genotypes used: N2 (wild-type), ogt-1 (ok1474), oga-1 (ok1207), and pmk-1 (km25)) were treated with the human pathogen S. aureus (SA) or P. aeruginosa(PA) and OP50 (E. coli control) with three biological replications.

Differential modification of the C. elegans proteome in response to acute and chronic gamma radiation: link with reproduction decline

Project description:Ecosystems are chronically exposed to ionizing radiations. But environmental risk assessment of chronic exposure suffers from a lack of knowledge. Extrapolation of data from acute to chronic exposure is not always relevant, and can lead to uncertainties. In fact, effects could be different between the two irradiation modes, especially regarding reproduction endpoint, which is an ecologically relevant parameter . The free living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a particularly appropriate model organism to address this proteomic issues. With its fully sequenced genome and its short life cycle, C. elegans has been successfully used to study acute and chronic irradiation effects and their consequences on germline development and hatching. Results showed that a decrease of the number of progeny associated with a decrease of hatching success occurred from and above 30 Gy of acute irradiation.. In the present study, we decided to refine the understanding of molecular mechanisms of acute and chronic irradiation by a global proteome analysis. To do so, C. elegans were exposed to 3 common cumulated doses between acute and chronic exposure. These 3 doses, lower than the doses for which an effect on the reproduction was shown, were susceptible to allow us to find early and sensitive biomarkers of a reproduction decline. After exposure, global modification of the proteome expression was studied using a label free LC-MS/MS proteomic approach. Our objectives were to test the following hypotheses: (1) whether or not proteome expression varied with the dose, and with the irradiation mode; (2) if proteome expression modification was associated with effects on reproduction, with potential direct implications for ecological risk assessment.

RNA sequencing to identify immunity-regulated genes in C. elegans defense against pathogen infection

Project description:To understand the molecular mechanism of C. elegans innate immunity, we used RNA sequencing to profile gene expression in wild-type animals with or without P. aeruginosa (PA14) infection. We found that a bZIP transcription factor ZIP-11 is dramatically induced in wild-type worm upon PA14 infection. And ZIP-11 promotes innate immunity through activating PMK-1/p38 pathway and interacting with a CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein CEBP-2.

Sterol scarcity primes p38 immune defenses through a TIR-1/SARM1 phase transition

Project description:Intracellular signaling regulators are concentrated into membrane-free, higher-ordered protein assemblies to initiate protective responses during stress — a process known as phase transition. Here, we show that a phase transition of the C. elegans Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain protein (TIR-1), a homolog of the mammalian sterile alpha and TIR motif-containing 1 (SARM1), primes host immune defenses when dietary sterols are limited to handle subsequent bacterial infection. TIR-1/SARM1 is an upstream component of the p38 PMK-1 pathway in intestinal cells, an innate immune defense and stress response pathway in metazoans. Under conditions of low cholesterol availability, multimerization and precipitation of TIR-1/SARM1 potentiates the intrinsic NAD+ glycohydrolase activity of this protein complex, increases p38 PMK-1 phosphorylation, and promotes pathogen clearance from the intestine. Dietary cholesterol is required for C. elegans to survive infection with pathogenic bacteria and to support development, fecundity, and lifespan. Thus, activation of the p38 PMK-1 pathway in sterol-deficient animals is an adaptive response that allows a metazoan host to anticipate environmental threats under conditions of essential metabolite scarcity.
