The Mechanism of Gene Regulation in Recurrent Vulvovaginal Candidiasis (RVVC Group)

ABSTRACT: Kunming mice were infected with Candida albicans, and transcriptome sequencing and analysis were performed to investigate the mechanism by which gene X mediates recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC) through the Y signaling pathway, thereby providing novel insights and potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of RVVC.

Vaginal transcriptional signatures of the neutrophil-driven immune response correlate with clinical severity during recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis

Project description:Problem: Recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC) affects 5-10% of all women, negatively impacting their reproductive health and quality of life. Herein, we investigated the molecular effects of RVVC on the vaginal mucosa of otherwise healthy women. Methods: Gene expression analysis was performed on vaginal tissue biopsies from women with RVVC, including those with a current episode of vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC, n=19) and women between infections (CNR, n=8); women asymptomatically colonized with Candida albicans (AS, n=7); and healthy controls (n=18). Gene expression profiles were compared between groups and correlated with clinical data retrieved from questionnaires and gynecologic examinations. Results: Of 20,171 genes identified in vaginal biopsies, 6,506 were differentially expressed in the RVVC group, compared to healthy controls. Gene expression pathway analysis revealed an association between RVVC and pathways of inflammatory responses, especially genes involved in neutrophil recruitment and activation. Expression of genes involved in inflammation and neutrophil recruitment increased with increasing clinical severity of vulvovaginal candidiasis, whereas expression of some genes involved in epithelial integrity decreased with increasing clinical severity of infection. Gene expression profiles of both the CNR and AS groups were comparable to those of healthy controls. Conclusions: The clinical severity of RVVC during active infection correlates with increased expression of genes involved in molecular inflammation and neutrophil activation in the vaginal mucosa. The lack of differences between healthy controls and women with RVVC who were between acute infections indicates that the molecular effects observed in the RVVC group are only present during active infection.

Oestrogen promotes innate immune invasion of Candida albicans through inactivation of complement

Project description:Candida albicans is a commensal of the urogenital tract and the predominant cause of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC). Roughly, 70% of otherwise healthy women succumb to VVC at least once in their life time. Elevated oestrogen levels are associated with C. albicans colonisation of the vagina and symptomatic infection. However, little is known about how C. albicans adapts to oestrogen. Here, we investigate how adaptation of C. albicans to elevated concentrations of oestrogen on the C. albicans host-pathogen interaction. Growth of C. albicans in physiological relevant concentrations of oestrogen promoted fungal innate immune evasion through reduction of both macrophage and neutrophil phagocytosis. Oestrogen-induced innate immune evasion was mediated via inhibition of opsonophagocytosis through enhanced Gpd2 dependent acquisition of Factor H on the fungal cell surface. The zebrafish larval model of infection confirmed that in vivo oestrogen and Gpd2 promote pathogenicity. Understanding the impact of oestrogen on C. albicans host-pathogen interaction will help improve our knowledge on how oestrogen promotes VVC.

Transcriptional response of Candida albicans to endothelial cells

Project description:Candida albicans is exposed to a different host environment during different site of infection. Thus, different virulence factors may be active during differenttypes of infection. However,little is known about the C. albicans genes that are required for the initiation and maintenance of candidiasis. To identify potential virulence factors relevant to hematogenously disseminated candidiasis, we determined the transcriptional response of C. albicans to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro. Keywords: cell interaction

Transcriptional response of Candida albicans to oral epithelial cells

Project description:Candida albicans is exposed to a different host environment during oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) compared to hematogenously disseminated candidiasis. Thus, different virulence factors may be active during these two types of infection. However,little is known about the C. albicans genes that are required for the initiation and maintenance of OPC. To identify potential virulence factors relevant to this disease, we determined the transcriptional response of C. albicans to oral epithelial cells in vitro. Keywords: cell interaction

Combined transcriptional profiling during systemic candidiasis reveals organ-specific host-pathogen interactions [C. albicans]

Project description:The opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans is a common cause of life-threatening nosocomial bloodstream infections. In the murine model of systemic candidiasis the kidney is the primary target organ while the fungal load declines over time in liver and spleen. To get a better understanding of the organ-specific differences in host-pathogen interaction during systemic murine candidiasis, we performed a time-course gene expression profiling to investigate the differential responses of murine kidney, liver and spleen and determined the fungal transcriptome in liver and kidney. We clearly demonstrate a delayed immune response on the transcriptional level in kidney accompanied by late induction of fungal stress response genes in this organ. In contrast, early upregulation of the proinflammatory response in the liver was associated with a fungal transcriptional profile resembling that of phagocytosed cells, suggesting that the resident phagocytic system contributes significantly to fungal control in the liver. Although no visible filamentation occurred in the liver, C. albicans hypha-associated genes were upregulated, indicating an uncoupling of gene expression and morphology during infection of this organ. In vitro the induction of hypha-associated gene expression in yeast cells led to altered interaction with macrophages, suggesting that the observed transcriptional changes affect host-pathogen interaction in vivo. Consistently, the combination of host and pathogen transcriptional data in an inference network model implied that C. albicans cell wall remodeling and metabolism were connected to the immune responses in kidney and liver. Furthermore, the network suggested links between fungal iron acquisition and amino acid metabolism in the kidney and host organ homeostasis. Thus, this work provides novel insights into the organ-specific host-pathogen interactions during systemic C. albicans infection.
