Project description:Arsenic is an ubiquitous contaminant and a toxic metalloid which presents two main redox states in nature: arsenite [AsIII] and arsenate [AsV]. Arsenic resistance in Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 is mediated by the arsBHC operon and two additional arsenate reductases encoded by the arsI1 and arsI2 genes. Here we describe the genome-wide responses in response to the presence of arsenate and arsenite in wild type and in mutants in the arsenic resistance system. Both forms of arsenic produced similar responses in the wild type strain including induction of several stress related genes and repression of energy generation processes. The responses observed in the arsB mutant strain were similar to the wild type in short term but were maintained in time while they were only transient in the wild type strain. In contrast, the responses observed in a strain lacking all arsenate reductases (the SARS12 strain) were somewhat different and included lower induction of genes involved in metal homeostasis and Fe-S cluster biogenesis. These results suggest that these two processes are targeted by arsenite in the wild type strain. Finally, analysis of the arsR mutant strain revealed that ArsR seems to only control 5 genes in the genome. Furthermore, over-expression of ArsB conferred hypersentivity to nickel, copper and cadmium in an arsR mutant strain. Analysis of genome-wide gene expression patterns in response to arsenic in WT and mutants involved in arsenic detoxification in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp PCC 6803. Cells treated with arsenate or arsenite for 1h. Details: WT cells were treated with 1 mM arsenite for 1 h and its expression profile compared to untreated cells (grown in BG11C media). The effects of arsenate were analyzed in the same way but using a modified BG11C media that constains 15% of the normal phosphate concentration (BG11C low phosphate). A reduction in the phosphate concentration in the media is essential to detect grow inhibition after arsenate addition. In the same way that for arsenite cells were treated with 50 mM arsenate for 1 h and their expression profile was compared to untreated cells. Expression profiles of mutant strains lacking arsB gene (SARSB strain; this strain is hypersensitive to arsenite because it lacks the arsenite exporter) or arsR gene (SARSR strain; this strain expresses the arsBHC constitutively) in control conditions and in response to arsenite addition were also analyzed. In addition the expression profiles of a mutant lacking arsenate reductases (SARS12 strain that has interrupted arsC, arsI1 and arsI2 genes; this strain is hypersensitive to arsenate) were analyzed in both control conditions and after addition of 50 mM arsenate.

Project description:Arsenic (As) is highly toxic element to all forms of life and is a major environmental contaminant. Understanding acquisition, detoxification, and adaptation mechanisms in bacteria that are associated with host in arsenic-rich conditions can provide novel insights into dynamics of host-microbe-microenvironment interactions. In the present study, we have investigated an arsenic resistance mechanism acquired during the evolution of a particular lineage in the population of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), which is a serious plant pathogen infecting rice. Our study revealed the horizontal acquisition of a novel chromosomal 12kb ars cassette in Xoo IXO1088 that confers high resistance to arsenate/arsenite. The ars cassette comprises several genes that constitute an operon induced in the presence of arsenate/arsenite. This cassette has spread in lineage with highly virulent strains owing to a particular lineage’s evolutionary success. Further, we performed the transcriptomic analysis of Xoo strain IXO1088 under arsenate/arsenite exposure using RNA sequencing. The transcriptomic analysis revealed that arsenic detoxification and efflux, oxidative stress response, iron acquisition/storage, and damage repair are the main cellular responses to arsenic exposure. The study provides useful insights into the acquisition, detoxification, and adaptation mechanisms among Xoo populations to adapt under arsenic-rich environmental conditions.

Project description:Exposure to high levels of arsenic in drinking water is associated with several types of cancers including lung, bladder and skin, as well as vascular disease and diabetes. Drinking water standards are based primarily on epidemiology and extrapolation from higher dose experiments, rather than measurements of phenotypic changes associated with chronic exposure to levels of arsenic similar to the current standard of 10ppb, and little is known about the difference between arsenic in food as opposed to arsenic in water. Measurement of phenotypic changes at low doses may be confounded by the effect of laboratory diet, in part because of trace amounts of arsenic in standard laboratory chows, but also because of broad metabolic changes in response to the chow itself. Finally, this series contrasts 8hr, 1mg/kg injected arsenic with the various chronic exposures, and also contrasts the acute effects of arsenic, dexamethasone or their combination. Male C57BL/6 mice were fed on two commercially available laboratory diets (LRD-5001 and AIN-76A) were chronically exposed, through drinking water or food, to environmentally relevant concentrations of sodium arsenite, or acutely exposed to dexamethasone. Experiment Overall Design: Male C57BL/6 mice, fed on two commercially available laboratory diets (LRD-5001 and AIN-76A), were chronically exposed through drinking water or food, to environmentally relevant concentrations of sodium arsenite. Another group animals, fed on the AIN 76A diet, was IP injected with dexamethasone (1 mg/kg), sodium arsenite (1mg/kg), both dexamethosone and arsenite, or saline alone.

Project description:The present study used microarray expression profiling to determine the effects of embryonic arsenic exposure. Fertilized killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) eggs were exposed to 0, 5, 15, or 25ppm arsenic as sodium arsenite. To examine differentially expressed genes, the microarrays were probed using RNA obtained from the control and 25ppm-exposed killifish just after hatching. No differences were noted in survival or hatching success between any of the groups. After analysis, a set of 332 genes was found to accurately distinguish between the control and 25ppm exposure groups. Expression of several of the genes (CDBP1, Arts1, FetB, and Fbp7) was quantified by qPCR in the lower exposure groups and at earlier time points to examine temporal and dose-responsive expression patterns. These results will enable us to better understand how arsenic impacts development. Killifish eggs were fertilized, divided into petri dishes containing 40 eggs (n=10 replicate petri dishes), and cultured until hatch in 0 or 25 ppm arsenic as sodium arsenite. Four to five hatchlings within each petri dish were pooled to obtain RNA. A total of 20 arrays were probed, 10 with RNA from control fish and 10 with RNA from the arsenic-exposed fish.

Project description:Purpose: To determine the effects of sodium arsenite in male mice on adaptive thermogenesis. Methods: Male C57BL/6J mice were exposed to sodium arsenite in drinking water at 300 parts per billion (ppb) for 9 weeks Findings: Arsenic-treated mice experienced significantly decreased metabolic heat production when acclimated to chronic cold tolerance testing, as evidenced by indirect calorimetry, despite no change in physical activity. Arsenic exposure increased total fat mass, and unilocular lipid droplet size in both subcutaneous inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT). Conclusion: Chronic arsenic exposure impacts the mitochondria of thermogenic tissues involved in energy expenditure and glucose regulation, providing novel mechanistic evidence for arsenic’s role in metabolic pathologies.

Project description:Talemi2014 - Arsenic toxicity and
detoxification mechanisms in yeast
The model implements arsenite (AsIII)
transport regulation, its distribution within main cellular AsIII
pools and detoxification. The intracellular As pools considered are
free AsIII (AsIIIin), protein-bound AsIII (AsIIIprot), glutathione
conjugated AsIII (AsGS3) and vacuolar sequestered AsIII (vAsGS3).
This model is described in the article:

Abstract:
Arsenic has a dual role as causative and curative agent of
human disease. Therefore, there is considerable interest in
elucidating arsenic toxicity and detoxification mechanisms. By
an ensemble modelling approach, we identified a best
parsimonious mathematical model which recapitulates and
predicts intracellular arsenic dynamics for different
conditions and mutants, thereby providing novel insights into
arsenic toxicity and detoxification mechanisms in yeast, which
could partly be confirmed experimentally by dedicated
experiments. Specifically, our analyses suggest that: (i)
arsenic is mainly protein-bound during short-term (acute)
exposure, whereas glutathione-conjugated arsenic dominates
during long-term (chronic) exposure, (ii) arsenic is not stably
retained, but can leave the vacuole via an export mechanism,
and (iii) Fps1 is controlled by Hog1-dependent and
Hog1-independent mechanisms during arsenite stress. Our results
challenge glutathione depletion as a key mechanism for arsenic
toxicity and instead suggest that (iv) increased glutathione
biosynthesis protects the proteome against the damaging effects
of arsenic and that (v) widespread protein inactivation
contributes to the toxicity of this metalloid. Our work in
yeast may prove useful to elucidate similar mechanisms in
higher eukaryotes and have implications for the use of arsenic
in medical therapy.
