Gene-expression profiling of HIV-1 infection and perinatal transmission in Botswana

ABSTRACT: We used Affymetrix U133A 2.0 chips to better understand transcriptional changes associated with HIV-1 infection and perinatal transmission in human PBMCS obtained from young adult mothers with infants in Botswana in vivo.

HIV seropositive and drug naÃ¯ve samples:; GSM94333, GSM94334, GSM94335, GSM94336, GSM94337, GSM94338, GSM94340, GSM94342, GSM94343, GSM94345, GSM94351, GSM94353, GSM94354, GSM94355, GSM94357, GSM94358, GSM94360, GSM94361, GSM94362, GSM94364, GSM94365, GSM94367, GSM94369, GSM94370, GSM94378; HIV seronegative samples:; GSM92590, GSM92788, GSM92789, GSM92790, GSM92791, GSM92792, GSM92793, GSM92794, GSM92795, GSM92796, GSM92797, GSM92798, GSM92799, GSM92800, GSM92801, GSM92802, GSM92803, GSM92804, GSM92805, GSM92806; HIV seropositive transmitter mothers:; GSM94333, GSM94334, GSM94335, GSM94336, GSM94337, GSM94338, GSM94340, GSM94342, GSM94343, GSM94345, GSM94378; HIV seropositive nontransmitter mothers:; GSM94351, GSM94353, GSM94354, GSM94355, GSM94357, GSM94358, GSM94360, GSM94361, GSM94362, GSM94364, GSM94365, GSM94367, GSM94369, GSM94370 Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA was extracted from peripheral blood and processed for microarray hybridizations that were conducted using U133A 2.0 chips (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). The 22,777 gene-probes were filtered based on presence/absence, resulting in data for 11,705 gene-probes. The array data sets were then analyzed for differential expression based on HIV status (seronegative, seropositive) and transmitter status (transmitter: TR, nontransmitter: NTR) using BADGE version 1.0, a computer program implementing a Bayesian approach to identify differentially expressed genes (Sebastiani et al, Nat.Gen, 2005). Once differentially expressed genes were identified by BADGE, the biologically enriched categories were identified, as recently described (Montano et al, Int Immunol, 2006), by implementing a stand-alone version of the EASE statistical software (Hosack et al, Genome Biol., 2003). Selected genes were validated using realtime reverse transcription PCR.

Project description:Background. More than one million women in fertile age are infected with Trypanosoma cruzi worldwide. Anti-T.cruzi seropositivity in mothers has been associated with adverse pregnancy outcome but there is still a knowledge gap regarding this effect. Our aim was to compare the gene expression profile of term placental environment from T. cruzi seropositive (SP) and seronegative (SN) mothers. Methods. A RNA-Seq was performed in 9 pools of 2 different placental RNA samples each: 3 belonging to placentas from SN and 6 from SP. Each pool consisted of a binomial of a female/male newborn and a vaginal/caesarean delivery. None of the newborns resulted infected. Results. Only 42 genes showed a significant fold change between SP and SN groups. Among the down-regulated genes were KISS1 and CGB5. In the up-regulated genes group were: KIF12, HLA-G, PRG2, TAC3, FN1 and ATXN3L. To identify pathways significantly associated with maternal T. cruzi-infection, a gene-set association analysis was implemented. The placental environment transcriptomic profile of SP consisted of an enrichment in immunological genes sets (inflammatory response and lymphocytic activation were over-expressed) whereas numerous biosynthetic processes were down-regulated. Conclusions. It is worth noting that several differentially expressed genes in SP placentas code for proteins associated to preeclampsia and miscarriage. This first transcriptomics study in human term placental environment from non-infected deliveries shows a placental response that may affect the faetus while protecting it from the parasite infection; this host response could be responsible for the low rate of congenital transmission observed in human chronic Chagas disease.
