Gene expression profiles in roots of hydroponically grown Arabidopsis treated with 0.125 mM gold

ABSTRACT: Gold is widely considered to be a biologically inert element; however, it can elicit a profound biological response in plants. Plants can be exposed to significant levels of this precious metal in the environment from naturally occurring sources, as the result of mining activities or more recently resulting from the escalating use of nanoparticles in industry. In this microarray study we have investigated the gene expression response of Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) to gold. Although the uptake of metal cations by plant transporters is well characterised, little is known about the uptake of gold, which exists in soil predominantly in a zero-valent state (Au0). We used this study to monitor the expression of candidate genes involved in metal uptake and transport. These show the down-regulation of a discreet number of genes known to be involved in the transport of copper, cadmium, nickel and iron.

The experiment comprised three replicate jars of hydropnically-grown Arabidopsis, each treated with 0.125 mM KAuCl4, and three replicate jars of hydropnically-grown Arabidopsis which were treated with water only.

Understanding toxicity pathways of gold nanoparticles: RNA expression study on Caco-2 human colon carcinoma cells

Project description:A safer design and higher eficacy of nano-gold therapeutic formulations requires examination of cellular responses to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). In this work we compared cellular uptake, cytotoxicity and RNA expression patterns induced in Caco-2 cells of citrate-stabilized Au NP of two different sizes (5 and 30 nm). The toxicity was measured with Colony Forming Efficiency (CFE) and Trypan Blue assays at 24 and 72 h after exposure to AuNPs in the 10 - 300 mM range. Toxicity was observed only in the CFE assay, at 200 and 300 mM exposure levels, and exclusively for smaller AuNPs size. Cellular internalization was dose and time-dependent for both AuNPs. The most pronounced changes in gene expression, evaluated with Agilent microarrays, were detected at 72 h (300 mM) for 5 nm AuNPs, with 103 up and 708 down regulated transcripts. For 30 nm AuNPs, only 4 gene transcripts were repressed under these conditions. The biological processes affected by 5 nm AuNPs were: RNA/zinc ion/transition metal ion binding (decreased), cadmium/copper ion binding and glutathione metabolism (increased). Some Nrf2 responsive genes (several metallothioneins, HMOX, G6PD, OSGIN1 and GPX2) were highly up regulated. Members of the selenoproteins (SELT, SELK, 15 kDa selenoprotein, SEPP1 and GPX2) were also differentially expressed. Our findings indicate that at high concentrations, smaller AuNPs can induce metal exposure and oxidative stress signaling pathways, and might influence selenium homeostasis. Therefore, some observed effects associated with nano-gold cytotoxicity can be further explored as potential enhancers of anti-cancer properties of already existing AuNPs based nanomedicin. Caco-2 cells were expoxed to spherical gold nanoparticles of two different sizes and concentrations (5 and 30 nm AuNPs, 100 and 300 microM). Cells were collected after 24 or 72 hours

Gold induction of C. metallidurans CH34

Project description:Whole-genome expression microarray experiments were conducted to assess the response of C. metallidurans CH34 to aqueous Au(III)-chloride and identify possible biochemical pathways for Au detoxification. Four microarray experiments were conducted to assess gold response at low, medium and high Au(III)-chloride concentrations (i.e., 10, 50 and 100 ÂµM Au(III)-chloride) and different induction times (10 and 30 minutes with 50 ÂµM Au(III)-chloride). Based on these arrays, the differentially expressed genes upon gold-exposure can be identified. The four microarray experiments (10, 50 and 100 ÂµM Au(III)-chloride at 10 minutes and 50 ÂµM Au(III)-chloride at 30 minutes) were all performed in biological triplicate and containing three (in-slide) technical repeats. For all conditions, the metal-induced sample (Cy5) was compared with the non-induced sample (Cy5) to identify those genes that were differentially expressed upon gold exposure.

Genome Wide Transcriptome Analysis reveals ABA mediated response in Arabidopsis during Gold (Aucl4-) treatment

Project description:Genome-wide transcriptome analysis was carried out in root tissue of Arabidopsis seedlings treated with gold (Au) as Chloroauric acid (HAuCl4). This study demonstrated remarkable changes in root transcriptome within the 12 h exposure. Most of the genes differentially expressed were related to glutathione binding, methylations, secondary metabolism, sugar metabolism, ABA, ethylene, auxin related signalling, transport and signal-transduction pathways. We analyzed root tissue from 6 samples (3 treated, 3 control) using the Affymetrix Arabidopsis Gene 1.0 ST platform. Array data was processed by Affymetrix Exon Array Computational Tool. No technical replicates were performed.

Gene expression profiling of macrophages: Implications for an immunosuppressive effect of dissolucytotic gold ions

Project description:Gold salts has been used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis but has been replaced by biologicals such as TNF-alpha inhibitors. The mechanisms behind the anti-inflammatory effect of metallic gold ions are still unknown, however, recent data showed that charged gold atoms are released from pure metallic gold implants by macrophages via a dissolucytosis membrane, and that gold ions are taken up by local macrophages, mast cells and to some extent fibroblasts. These current findings offer new treatment options for metallic gold and deeper understanding of the effect of metallic gold on key inflammatory cells as macrophages are essential. In the present study the impact of phagocytised gold ions on the global gene expression profile of the human monocytic cell line THP-1 was investigated, using microarray analysis comprising approximately 20,000 genes. The gene expression data was confirmed by measurement of three secreted proteins. A unique gene expression signature of dissolucytotic macrophages that had taken up gold ions was demonstrated. A large number of regulated genes were functionally related to immunomodulation/protection. Gold ion uptake into macrophages induced downregulation of central inflammatory cytokines as TNF-alpha, IL-32 and CD28. The data obtained in this study offer new insights into the mode of action of gold ions and suggest a future role of metallic gold as implants or topical applications in treating inflammation.

Infection of macrophages with functional Slc11a1 yields differences in global gene expression, regulation of metal ions, and infection outcomes

Project description:Manipulation of zinc at the host-pathogen interface depends on both the identity of the pathogen and the nature of the host cell. In this study, we examine the response of bone marrow derived macrophages from 129S6/SvEvTac mice to infection by Salmonella Typhimurium. Unlike Balb/c and C57BL/6 mice, 129S6/SvEvTac mice possess a functional Slc11a1 (Nramp-1), a phagosomal transporter of divalent cations. We examine the changes in gene expression upon treatment with live or heat killed Salmonella at 2 Hrs and 18 Hrs post infection, and observed widespread changes in metal transport, metal-dependent, and metal homeostasis genes, suggesting significant remodeling of iron, copper, and zinc availability by host cells.
