Project description:Aging human skin undergoes significant morphological and functional changes such as wrinkle formation, reduced wound healing capacity, and altered epidermal barrier function. Besides known age-related alterations like DNA-methylation changes, metabolic adaptations have been more recently linked to impaired skin function in old humans. Understanding of these metabolic adaptations in aged skin are of special interest, because topical treatments could reverse age-dependent metabolic changes of human skin in vivo to affect age associated skin disorders. Results: We investigated the global metabolic adaptions in human skin during aging with a combined transcriptomic and metabolomic approach applied to epidermal tissue samples of young and old human volunteers. Our analysis confirmed known age-dependent metabolic alterations, e.g. reduction of coenzyme Q10 levels, and also revealed novel age effects that are seemingly important for skin maintenance. Integration of donor-matched transcriptome and metabolome data highlighted transcriptionally-driven alterations of metabolism during aging such as altered activity in upper glycolysis and glycerolipid biosynthesis or decreased protein and polyamine biosynthesis. Together, we identified several age-dependent metabolic alterations that might affect cellular signaling, epidermal barrier function, and skin structure and morphology. Conclusion: Our study provides a global resource on the metabolic adaptations and its transcriptional regulation during aging of human skin. Thus, it represents a first step towards an understanding of the impact of metabolism on impaired skin function in aged humans and therefore will potentially lead to improved treatments of age related skin disorders

Project description:Anthocyanins are considered as a stress indicator due to their involvement in the response to many stresses including high light (HL) and low temperature (LT). With the development of transcriptomics, it is necessary to find the different and common points in the mechanisms of LT-induced and HL-induced anthocyanin biosynthesis . In the present study, we determined the transcriptomes of Begonia semperflorens leaves under three different conditions (CK, HL and LT). To validate the DEGs, we selected four core genes involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis to perform RT-qPCR, and then determined anthocyanin content. In total, 94,880 unigenes with a mean length of 635 bp were assembled. The N50 values of the transcripts and unigenes were 2,286 bp and 1,064 bp, respectively. The functional annotations of the unigenes were analysed against five protein databases. DEGs related to anthocyanin biosynthesis, transportation and regulation were identified. We also analysis the enrichment pathway, and discuss the difference in mechanisms of anthocyanin induced under low-emperature and high-light conditions. This study is the first to examine broad-scale gene expression in B. semperflorens. By identifying DEGs regulated by both LT and HL conditions, we found that anthocyanin accumulation was employed as a common strategy by Begonia seedlings in resisting LT and HL stress. By identifying DEGs regulated differently by LT and HL conditions, we found that Begonia seedlings also had some different strategies for resisting LT and HL stresses: anthocyanins were biosynthesized under HL condition, while lignin, proanthocyanidins and anthocyanins under LT condition.

Project description:Phenylethyl alcohol was one of the first quorum sensing molecules (QSMs) identified in C. albicans. This extracellular signalling molecule inhibits the hyphal formation of C. albicans at high cell density. Little is known, however, about the underlying mechanisms by which this QSM regulates the morphological switches of C. albicans. Therefore, we have applied metabolomics and isotope labelling experiments to investigate the metabolic changes that occur in C. albicans in response to phenylethyl alcohol under defined hyphae-inducing conditions. Our results showed a global upregulation of central carbon metabolism when hyphal development was suppressed by phenylethyl alcohol. By comparing the metabolic changes in response to phenylethyl alcohol to our previous metabolomic studies, we were able to short-list 7 metabolic pathways from central carbon metabolism that appear to be associated with C. albicans morphogenesis. Furthermore, isotope-labelling data showed that phenylethyl alcohol is indeed taken up and catabolised by yeast cells. Isotope-labelled carbon atoms were found in the majority of amino acids as well as in lactate and glyoxylate. However, isotope-labelled carbon atoms from phenylethyl alcohol accumulated mainly in the pyridine ring of NAD(+)/NADH and NADP(-/)NADPH molecules, showing that these nucleotides were the main products of phenylethyl alcohol catabolism. Interestingly, two metabolic pathways where these nucleotides play an important role, nitrogen metabolism and nicotinate/nicotinamide metabolism, were also short-listed through our previous metabolomics works as metabolic pathways likely to be closely associated with C. albicans morphogenesis.

Project description:The CHLD and CHLM genes encode proteins involved in tetrapyrrole biosynthesis pathway. It was proposed that intermediates like magnesium protoporphyrin might play a role in retrograde plastid-to-nucleus signaling. In the present work we provide evidence that altered enzymes activity of the tetrapyrrole biosynthesis pathway are causing changes in gene expression of over 200 nuclear genes. The expression of the CHLD gene was diminished after inducing the RNAi system by spraying dexamethasone. The expression of the CHLM gene was increased after inducing the overexpressor system by spraying ß-estradiol.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide, and can rapidly progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Accurate preclinical models and robust methodologies need to be established to understand the underlying metabolic mechanisms and develop treatment strategies. Based on our meta-analysis of currently available data on several mouse models, we hypothesized a diet- and chemical-induced NASH model closely resembles metabolic alteration in human. We developed an already established WD+CCl4-induced NASH model. We developed and performed transcriptomics driven metabolic pathway analysis (TDMPA) using differentially expressed genes in mouse NASH liver compared to control. We compared the altered metabolic pathways and enzymatic reactions to human NASH. We performed functional assays and lipidomics to confirm our findings related to metabolic alterations. Numerous metabolic pathways were altered in human NASH and mouse model. De novo triglyceride biosynthesis, fatty acid beta-oxidation, bile acid biosynthesis, cholesterol metabolism, and oxidative phosphorylation were the most influenced pathways. We confirmed significant reduction in mitochondrial functions and bioenergetics in NASH model, and in acylcarnitines. We identified a wide range of lipid species within the most perturbed pathways predicted by TDMPA. Triglycerides, phospholipids and bile acids were increased significantly in NASH, confirming our initial observations. We identified several metabolic pathways that typify NASH pathophysiology in human. By comparing human and mouse metabolic signatures, we evaluated metabolic resemblance of mouse model to human and its suitability for the study of the disease and potential usage for drug discovery and testing. We also presented TDMPA, a novel methodology to evaluate metabolic pathway alterations in metabolic disorders and a valuable tool for defining metabolic space to aid experimental design for lipidomics and metabolomics approaches.

Project description:This study presents the first evidence for the accelerated degradation of phenol by Fenton's reagent in a mini-fluidic VUV/UV photoreaction system (MVPS). A low-pressure mercury lamp used in the MVPS led to a complete degradation of phenol within 4-6 min. The HO˙ and HO2˙ originating from both Fenton's reagent and VUV photolysis of water were identified with suitable radical scavengers. The effects of initial concentrations of phenol, H2O2 and Fe3+ as well as solution pH on phenol degradation kinetics were examined. Increasing the initial phenol concentration slowed down the phenol degradation, whereas increasing the initial H2O2 or Fe3+ concentration accelerated the phenol degradation. The optimal solution pH was 3.7. At both 254 and 185 nm, increasing phenol concentration enhanced its absorption for the incident photons. The reaction mechanism for the degradation of phenol was suggested consistent with the results obtained. This study indicates that the VUV/UV photo-Fenton process has potential applications in the treatment of industrial wastewater containing phenol and related aromatic pollutants.
