RNA-seq analysis of conventionally raised zebrafish larvae compared to germ-free zebrafish larvae and germ-free larvae treated with zebrafish metabolites.

ABSTRACT: Here, we explore the impact of rearing zebrafish embryos in the absence of microbes on early neural development as well as investigate whether any potential changes can be rescued with treatment of metabolites derived from the zebrafish gut microbiota. RNA was extracted from a pool of five heads for each treatment at long-pec stage (2 days post fertilization) and sequenced at a depth of 80-100 million reads per sample. We identified 361 genes significantly down regulated in GF embryos compared to conventionally raised embryos via RNA-Seq analysis. Of these, 42 were rescued with the treatment of zebrafish gut-derived metabolites to GF embryos. Gene ontology analysis revealed that these genes are involved in prominent neurodevelopmental pathways including transcriptional regulation and Wnt signalling.

Single-cell RNA sequencing of germ-free zebrafish embryos

Project description:The present study was conducted in the frame of the EU-funded Graphene Flagship project. We previously evaluated the impact of graphene oxide (GO) on the gut microbiome in adult zebrafish by performing 16S rRNA gene sequencing in wild-type versus AhR-deficient zebrafish. Here, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (10x Genomics) on whole (dissociated) germ-free (GF) zebrafish embryos exposed at 5 dpf to GO plus the microbial metabolite butyrate to gain insight into the impact on specific cell populations in GF zebrafish.

The transcriptome profiling analysis of intestines and kidneys in conventionally raised (CV) and germ-free (GF) wild type zebrafish embryos

Project description:To investigate how the zebrafish embryos respond to the absence of the microbiota, the intestinal tissue-associated and the kidney tissue-associated gene expressions were examined at 5 dpf and 7 dpf respectively. 32,948 cDNAs of the zebrafish genome assembly were annotated after reads mapping for further analysis. For the 5 dpf intestinal tissue samples, 948 genes (4% of the total number of genes) were differentially expressed, 371 genes were up-regulated and 577 genes were down-regulated in the GF group . For the 7 dpf kidney tissue samples, 697 genes (3% of the total number of genes) were differentially expressed, 341 genes were up-regulated and 356 genes were down-regulated in the GF group. The enrichment analysis showed that the immune and cytokine related pathways were affected by the GF treatment in the wildtype embryos (both in intestines at 5 dpf and in kidneys at 7 dpf). To investigate how the transcriptome changes in the chd8-/- zebrafish embryos, the intestinal tissue-associated and the kidney tissue-associated gene expressions were examined at 5 dpf and 7 dpf respectively.

Genes controlling the activation of natural killer lymphocytes are epigenetically remodeled in intestinal cells from germ-free mice

Project description:Remodeling of the gut microbiota is implicated in various metabolic and inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. We hypothesized that the gut microbiota affects the DNA methylation profile of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) which could, in turn, alter intestinal function. Here, we used mass spectrometry and methylated DNA capture to respectively investigate global and genome-wide DNA methylation of intestinal epithelial cells from germ-free (GF) and conventionally raised mice (CONV-R). In colonic IECs from GF mice, DNA was markedly hypermethylated. This was associated with a dramatic loss of Ten-Eleven-Translocation activity, a lower DNA methyltransferase activity and lower circulating levels of the one carbon metabolites cobalamin and folate. At the gene level, we found an enrichment for differentially methylated regions at proximity of genes regulating cytotoxicity of Natural Killer cells (FDR < 8.9E-6), notably members of the natural killer group 2 member D ligand superfamily Raet. Our results suggest that altered activity of methylation-modifying enzymes in GF mice influences the IEC epigenome at genes involved in the crosstalk between intestinal and immune cells. Epigenetic reprogramming of IECs by the gut microbiota may modulate intestinal function in diseases associated with altered gut microbiota.

The Microbial Metabolite Deoxycholic Acid Modulates Cholesterol Metabolism in the Germ-Free Mouse

Project description:Deoxycholic acid (DCA) is a secondary bile acid produced by a small number of commensal species of bacteria present in the mammalian gut. Elevated DCA concentration correlates with disease states including colon cancer and cholesterol gallstones, but the associated mechanisms are not fully understood. Both primary and secondary bile acids are also capable of affecting gene expression through nuclear receptors such as FXR. To better understand the impact of a commensal-derived secondary bile acid on host metabolism we fed DCA to germ-free (GF) mice, which normally lack DCA, and compared the hepatic transcriptomes of bile acid fed GF mice to GF mice receiving a control diet, as well as to those of conventionally housed control animals. Interestingly, the feeding of DCA to GF mice, but not the feeding of cholic acid (CA) from which DCA is derived, results in an up-regulation of genes of cholesterol biosynthetic pathways. GF mice normally have elevated hepatic cholesterol compared to conventionally housed mice. Despite increase in the expression of cholesterol biosynthetic genes, the DCA fed GF mice showed a markedly decreased level of hepatic cholesterol equivalent to the hepatic cholesterol concentration of conventionally colonized animals. Total cholesterol in the serum was unaffected by DCA, but there was a decrease in the HDL lipoprotein fraction as well as an increase in the non-HDL lipoprotein fraction of the serum cholesterol. DCA, but not CA, is sufficient to modulate host lipoprotein metabolism. Taken together, these results suggests that a minor component of the gut microbiome has a significant impact on cholesterol homeostasis through secondary metabolism of bile acids and suggests a possible therapeutic intervention route through the microbial metabolic pathways. two mouse strains, three diets, one time point

Cecum gene expression signatures in germ-free WT mice colonized with microbiota from WT or Card9-/- mice and infected with Citrobacter rodentium induced colitis

Project description:It is crucial to decipher the host-microbiota interactions as they are involved in intestinal homeostasis and diseases. Caspase Recruitment Domain 9 (Card9) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) susceptibility gene coding for an adapter protein for innate immunity toward many microorganisms. Card9-/- mice are more susceptible to colitis induced by Citrobacter rodentium as a result of impaired of the IL-22 pathway. C. rodentium is a natural mouse pathogen widely used to model human infections with Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and Enterohaemorrhagic E. coli. To explore the role of the gut microbiota in the susceptibility of Card9-/- mice to C. rodentium infection, we colonized WT germ-free (GF) mice with the microbiota of WT (WT-->GF) or Card9-/- (Card9-/- -->GF) mice and challenged them with C. rodentium. Card9-/- -->GF mice were more susceptible than WT-->GF mice to C. rodentium. To examine the mechanisms responsible for this defect, we compared the cecum transcriptomes of WT -->GF and Card9-/- -->GF mice before and during C. rodentium-induced colitis. The number of down-regulated and up-regulated genes on day 12 after C. rodentium infection was lower in Card9-/- -->GF mice than WT-->GF mice. Card9-/- -->GF mice showed a significant down-regulation of gut morphogenesis and wound healing pathways suggesting that recovery is impaired in Card9-/- -->GF mice after C. rodentium infection. Immune response and cell division pathways were up-regulated in WT-->GF mice but not in Card9-/- -->GF confirming the defect of global response to infection when only the Card9-/- microbiota was transferred. The most induced and differentially expressed genes between Card9-/- -->GF and WT-->GF mice on day 4 after C. rodentium infection were Reg3g (encoding REGIIIγ) and Reg3b (encoding REGIIIβ).

Proteomic analysis of KARS knockout zebrafish larvae

Project description:KARS encodes for both mitochondrial and cytoplasmic lysyl-tRNA synthetase, which is necessary for protein synthesis. KARS mutations have been reported to be involved in hearing loss, vision disorder, neuropathology, etc. However, there is no relevant animal experimental research in vivo so far. Here, we developed a zebrafish KARS null mutant line, offering a model for diseases due to KARS mutations. Zebrafish embryos with different genotypes (homozygous or wild type) were separately collected for each biological replicate at 5 days post fertilization (dpf). Proteomics of three biological replicates for the two groups was performed and analyzed. Comparisons between these two groups allow identification of enriched proteins and pathways in KARS mutants, which may underlie phenotypes of KARS deletion. Our dataset provides a valuable resource for understanding the pathology and molecular mechanisms of KARS deficiency.
