Expression data from bone marrow derived DCs stimulated with different peptide-based nanovaccine formulations against L. infantum infection

ABSTRACT: Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), caused by Leishmania spp protozoan parasites, can provoke overwhelming and protracted epidemics, with high case–fatality rates. Despite extensive efforts towards the development of an effective prophylactic vaccine, no promising vaccine is available yet for humans. Multi-epitope peptide based vaccine development is manifesting as the new era of vaccination strategies against VL. Aim of the study was the design of chimeric peptides from immunogenic L. infantum proteins for encapsulation in PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) alone or in combination with MPLA adjuvant, or in PLGA NPs surface modified with an octapeptide mimicking TNF-alpha for DCs targeting, in order to construct a peptide-based nanovaccine. The in vitro evaluation of the above nanoformulations was performed in DCs isolated from HLA-A2.1 transgenic mice. Characterization of DCs transcriptional responses to these vaccine candidates via microarrays could improve our understanding of their mechanisms of action on DCs' functional differentiation and the type of adaptive immunity subsequently induced.

Blood transcription profiling of infections of humans with Leishmania infantum.

Project description:Gene expression profiling to address the effects of infection with Leishmania infantum during distinct clinical outcomes as active visceral leishmaniasis (VL), remission of disease and asymptomatic infection. Total RNA was extracted from whole-blood lysates obtained from VL patients, treated VL patients, asymptomatic individuals and uninfected controls. The aim was to evaluate gene expression signatures associated with protective and pathological responses.

Expression data of miRNAs from PBMC of dogs infected with L. infantum

Project description:Leishmania (L.) infantum is the etiologic agent of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). In Brazil represents a serious public health problem. Studies have shown that regulation of immune response appears to depend on miRNAs. In canine VL due to cell immune suppression being determinant of disease progression, knowledge of miRNAs may be important for the pattern of change in immune response. Here, we suggest that post-transcriptional regulation, mediated by miRNAs, may play a role in immune response of dogs with VL.

Project description:The disease visceral leishmaniasis (VL), caused by Leishmania (L.) infantum, its a serious public health problem in Brazil. Studies with miRNAs showed their regulation in the immune response, due to cell immune suppression to be determinant at disease progression, identify them is important for the mechanism of change in immune response. We suggest then, that miRNAs regulation at immune response of dogs with VL.

Study of visceral leishmaniasis establishment - Gene expression from (un)infected (non-)vaccinated mouse spleen samples

Project description:Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by Leishmania donovani and L. infantum is a potentially fatal disease. To date there are no registered vaccines for disease prevention despite the fact that several vaccines are in preclinical development. Thus, new strategies are needed to improve vaccine efficacy based on a better understanding of the mechanisms mediating protective immunity and mechanisms of host immune responses subversion by immunopathogenic components of Leishmania. In the present study, determination of the immune mechanisms related to infection or protective immune responses against VL using an experimental nanovaccine as a vaccine model was conducted through microarray analysis.

In-depth proteomics analysis of a Leishmania infantum strain selected in vitro for miltefosine resistance

Project description:Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) is a neglected disease caused Leishmania parasites. Although significant morbidity and mortality in tropical and subtropical regions of the world are associated to VL, low investment for developing new treatment measures is chronic. Moreover, resistance and treatment failure are increasing for the main medications, but the emergence of resistance phenotypes is poorly understood at the protein level. Here, we analyzed the development of resistance to miltefosine upon experimental selection in a L. infantum strain. Time to miltefosine resistance emergence was ~six months and label-free quantitative mass-spectrometry-based proteomics analyses revealed that this process involves a remodeling of components of the membrane and mitochondrion, with significant increase in oxidative phosphorylation complexes, particularly on complex IV and ATP synthase, accompanied by increased energy metabolism mainly dependent on β-oxidation of fatty acids. Proteins canonically involved in ROS detoxification did not contribute to the resistant process whereas sterol biosynthesis enzymes could have a role in this development. Also, changes in the abundance of proteins known to be involved in miltefosine resistance such as ABC transporters and phospholipid transport ATPase were detected. Together, our data show a more complete picture of the elements that make up the miltefosine resistance phenotype in L. infantum.

Comparison of gene expression in BMDCs stimulated with gamma-PGA nanoparticles, LPS and unparticulate gamma-PGA

Project description:The gene expression levels in murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells treated with γ-PGA NPs were examined by oligonucleitide microarray and compared with those in the cells treated with other adjuvants. The gene expression of proinflammatory chemokines, cytokines, and costimulatory molecules was upregulated considerably in DCs treated with γ-PGA NPs. The upregulation pattern was similar to that in DCs treated with LPS but not in DCs treated with unparticulate γ-PGA. The activation of DCs by γ-PGA NPs was confirmed by real-time RT-PCR analysis for the genes related to TLR signaling. The effect of γ-PGA NPs on DCs was not annihilated by treating with polymixin B, an inhibitor of LPS. Furthermore, the immunization of mice with γ-PGA NPs carrying OVA significantly induced Ag-specific CD8+ T cells and Ag-specific production of IL-2, TNF-α, and IFN-γ from the cells. Such activities of γ-PGA NPs were more prominent, when compared to the immunization with OVA plus aluminum hydroxide or OVA plus CFA. These results suggest that γ-PGA NPs induce a CD8+ T cell response through activating innate immunity in a fashion different from that of LPS. Thus, γ-PGA NPs may be an attractive adjuvant to be further developed for vaccine therapy.
