Project description:The interplay between pathogens and hosts has been studied for decades using targeted approaches such as the analysis of mutants and host immunological responses. Although much has been learned from such studies, they focus on individual pathways and fail to reveal the global effects of infection on the host. To alleviate this issue, high-throughput methods such as transcriptomics and proteomics have been used to study host-pathogen interactions. Recently, metabolomics was established as a new method to study changes in the biochemical composition of host tissues. We report a metabolomics study of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium infection. We used Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry with Direct Infusion to reveal that dozens of host metabolic pathways are affected by Salmonella in a murine infection model. In particular, multiple host hormone pathways are disrupted. Our results identify unappreciated effects of infection on host metabolism and shed light on mechanisms used by Salmonella to cause disease, and by the host to counter infection. Female C57BL/6 mice were infected with Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium SL1344 cells by oral gavage. Feces and livers were collected and metabolites extracted using acetonitrile. For experiments with feces, samples were collected from 4 mice before and after infection. For liver experiments, 11 uninfected and 11 infected mice were used. Samples were combined into 3 groups of 3-4 mice each, resulting in the analysis of 3 group samples of uninfected and 3 of infected mice. Extracts were infused into a 12-T Apex-Qe hybrid quadrupole-FT-ICR mass spectrometer equipped with an Apollo II electrospray ionization source, a quadrupole mass filter and a hexapole collision cell. Raw mass spectrometry data were processed as described elsewhere (Han et al. 2008. Metabolomics. 4:128-140 [PMID 19081807]). To identify differences in metabolite composition between uninfected and infected samples, we filtered the list of masses for metabolites which were present on one set of samples but not the other. Additionally, we calculated the ratios between averaged intensities of metabolites from uninfected and infected mice. To assign possible metabolite identities, monoisotopic neutral masses of interest were queried against MassTrix (http://masstrix.org). Masses were searched against the Mus musculus database within a mass error of 3 ppm. Data were analyzed by unpaired t tests with 95% confidence intervals.

Project description:Eriocitrin, found in lemon fruit, has shown a wide range of biological properties. Herein, to evaluate the intestinal metabolic profile of eriocitrin in colon, the flavonoids in mice colon contents were identified by ultra performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS), and a total of 136 flavonoids were found, including eriocitrin and its six metabolites (eriodictyol, homoeriodictyol, hesperetin, eriodictyol-3'-O-glucoside, hesperetin-7-O-glucoside and eriodictyol-7-O-(6''-O-galloyl) glucoside). Mice colon contents were used for 16S rDNA gene sequencing and gas chromatography-mass (GC-MS). Resultu showed that eriocitrin significantly alters the beta diversity of the gut microbiota, the probiotics such as Lachnospiraceae_UCG_006 were significantly enriched, and the production of butyrate, valerate and hexanoate in the colon pool of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were significant increased. The spearman's association analysis performed some intestinal bacteria may be involved in the metabolism of eriocitrin. Collectively, our results preliminarily suggesting the metabolism of eriocitrin in the gut, demonstrate alterations of eriocitrin on gut microbiota, which warrants further investigation to determine its potential use in food and biomedical applications.

Project description:Colon cancer onset and progression is strongly associated with the presence, absence, or relative abundances of certain microbial taxa in the gastrointestinal tract. However, specific mechanisms affecting disease susceptibility related to complex bacterial mixtures are poorly understood. We used a multi-omics approach to determine how differences in the complex gut microbiome (GM) influence the metabolome and host transcriptome and ultimately affect susceptibility to adenoma development. Fecal samples collected from Pirc rats harboring two distinct complex GMs were analyzed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS). We identified putative metabolite profiles that predicted future disease severity from samples collected prior to observable disease onset. Transcriptome analyses performed after disease onset on normal epithelium and tumor tissues suggests that the GM also alters the host transcriptome. Integrated pathway (IP) analyses of the metabolome and transcriptome based on putatively identified metabolic features indicate that bile acid biosynthesis was enriched in rats with high tumors (GM:F344) along with increased fatty acid metabolism and mucin biosynthesis. These data emphasize the utility of using untargeted metabolomics to identify metabolites for revealing signatures of susceptibility and resistance.

Project description:Crizotinib is a first-line targeted therapy against EML4-ALK fusion in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the increased resistance limits its clinical application. However, the mechanisms underlying such resistance are largely unexplored. The present study identified ALK protein overexpression in crizotinib-resistant H3122CR cells through immunoblotting. Then, liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry-based metabolomics was adopted to investigate metabolic responses. Crizotinib resistance was associated with the reduction of the total lipid content and the increase of organic acid, featuring the upregulation of lipid metabolism. Fatty acid β-oxidation pathway reprogrammed crizotinib-sensitive metabolome to crizotinib-resistant metabolome, resulting in crizotinib resistance. These findings reveal a previously unknown mechanism of crizotinib resistance and suggest promising applications of this approach in prognostic prediction and tailored therapeutics of NSCLC patients.

Project description:The paper "Metabolomic Machine Learning Predictor for Diagnosis and Prognosis of Gastric Cancer" addresses the need for non-invasive diagnostic tools for gastric cancer (GC). Traditional methods like endoscopy are invasive and expensive. The authors conducted a targeted metabolomics analysis of 702 plasma samples to develop machine learning models for GC diagnosis and prognosis. The diagnostic model, using 10 metabolites, achieved a sensitivity of 0.905, outperforming conventional protein marker-based methods. The prognostic model effectively stratified patients into risk groups, surpassing traditional clinical models.
I have successfully reproduced the diagnosis model from the paper. This machine learning-based system differentiates GC patients from non-GC controls using metabolomics data from plasma samples analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The model focuses on 10 metabolites, including succinate, uridine, lactate, and serotonin. Employing LASSO regression and a random forest classifier, the model achieved an AUROC of 0.967, with a sensitivity of 0.854 and specificity of 0.926. This model significantly outperforms traditional diagnostic methods and underscores the potential of integrating machine learning with metabolomics for early GC detection and treatment.

Project description:To cause disease, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium requires two type-III secretion systems, encoded on Salmonella Pathogenicity Islands 1 and 2 (SPI-1 and -2). These secretion systems serve to deliver virulence proteins, termed effectors, into the host cell cytosol. While the importance of these effector proteins to promote colonization and replication within the host has been established, the specific roles of individual secreted effectors in the disease process are not well understood. In this study, we used an in vivo gallbladder epithelial cell infection model to study the function of the SPI-2-encoded effector, SseL. Deletion of the sseL gene resulted in bacterial filamentation and elongation and unusual localization of Salmonella within infected epithelial cells. Infection with the ?sseL strain also caused dramatic changes in lipid metabolism and led to massive accumulation of lipid droplets in infected cells. Some of these changes were investigated through metabolomics of gallbladder tissue. This phenotype was directly attributed to the deubiquitinase activity of SseL, as a Salmonella strain carrying a single point mutation in the catalytic cysteine resulted in the same phenotype as the deletion mutant. Excessive buildup of lipids due to the absence of a functional sseL gene was also observed in S. Typhimurium-infected livers. These results demonstrate that SseL alters host lipid metabolism in infected epithelial cells by modifying ubiquitination patterns of cellular targets. Female C57BL/6 mice were infected with the indicated strain of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium by oral gavage. Four gallbladders were collected and pooled per sample group and metabolites extracted using a mixture of methanol and chloroform. Extracts were infused into a 12-T Apex-Qe hybrid quadrupole-FT-ICR mass spectrometer equipped with an Apollo II electrospray ionization source, a quadrupole mass filter and a hexapole collision cell. Raw mass spectrometry data were processed as described elsewhere (Han et al. 2008. Metabolomics. 4:128-140).

Project description:The transcriptional and metabolic profiles of rosettes of three independent Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Wassiliewska lines overexpressing the soybean early noduline GmENOD40 gene were compared to those of wt, and a biomarker analysis was performed. ENOD40 overexpression resulted in 382 modulated genes, 142 of which upregulated and 165 downregulated in all the three transformed lines. Cell wall, membrane, hydrolase activity on glycosidic bonds, defense response and response to stimulus gene categories were overrepresented in the modulated genes compared to TAIR complete database. Metabolomics analysis (through liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) allowed to putatively identify 13 different glucosinolates, some flavonoids, sinapic and ferulic acid derivatives, hydroxybenzoic acid derivatives, non aromatic organic acids, amino acids. Positive genes biomarkers of the transformed plants were mainly involved in cell wall turnover, whereas positive metabolite biomarkers were the methylthioalkyl-glucosinolates. The transcriptional profile of rosettes of three independent Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Wassiliewska lines overexpressing the soybean early noduline GmENOD40 gene were compared to those of wt, and a biomarker analysis was performed.
