ABSTRACT: Dataset 1 contains bacterial-fungal monocultures and tripartite co-cultures in which Scopulariopsis sp. JB370 are grown with 1) Hafnia alvei JB232 and 2) Pseudomonas psychrophila JB418 or Escherichia coli K12. Dataset 2 contains bacterial-fungal tripartite co-cultures in which Penicillium solitum #12 are grown with 1) Glutamicibacter arilaitensis JB182 or Brevibacterium linens JB5 and 2) Pseudomonas psychrophila JB418 or Escherichia coli K12. All cultures from each dataset were grown on 10% cheese curd agar (CCA) and extracted using acetonitrile. Extracts were analyzed via LC-MS(/MS) and processed with MZmine2 for analysis with MetaboAnalyst 5.0 and GNPS feature based molecular networking.

Project description:Leafy green vegetables, such as lettuce, have been increasingly implicated in outbreaks of foodborne illnesses due to contamination by Escherichia coli O157:H7. While E. coli can survive in soils, colonize plants, and survive on produce, very little is known about the interaction of E. coli with the roots of growing lettuce plants. In these studies a combination of microarray analyses and microbial genetics were used to gain a comprehensive understanding of bacterial genes involved in the colonization and growth of E. coli K12 on lettuce roots using a hydroponic assay system. Here we report that after three days of interaction with lettuce roots, 193 and 131 genes were significantly up-regulated and down-regulated at least 1.5 fold, respectively. Forty-five out of the 193 up-regulated genes (23%) were involved in protein synthesis and were highly induced. Genes involved in stress response, attachment and biofilm formation were up-regulated in E. coli when they interacted with lettuce roots under conditions of hydroponic growth. In particular crl, a gene regulating the cryptic csgA gene for curli production, was significantly up regulated. The crl, csgA and fliN mutants had a reduced capacity to attach to roots as determined by bacterial counts and by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Our microarray data showed that E. coli K12 increased the synthesis of proteins indicated that a dramatic change was induced in the physiology of the microorganism. This study indicates that E. coli K12 can efficiently colonize lettuce roots by using attachment and biofilm modulation genes and can readily adapt to the rhizosphere of lettuce plants. Further studies are needed to better characterize this interaction in pathogenic strains of this species. Escherichia coli MG1655 strains were grown in the lettuce rhizosphere for three days. Transcriptional profiling of E. coli was compared between cells grown with and without rhizosphere . Three biological replicates of each treatment were prepared, and six microarray slides were used.

Project description:Sepsis is a clinical syndrome that can be caused by bacteria or fungi. Early knowledge on the nature of the causative agent is a prerequisite for targeted anti-microbial therapy. Besides currently used detection methods like blood culture and PCR-based assays, the analysis of the transcriptional response of the host to infecting organisms holds great promise. In this study, we aim to examine the transcriptional footprint of infections caused by the bacterial pathogens Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli and the fungal pathogens Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus in a human whole-blood model. Moreover, we use the expression information to build a random forest classifier to determine if the pathogen is bacterial, fungal or neither of the two. After normalizing the transcription intensities using stably expressed reference genes, we filtered the gene set for biomarkers of bacterial or fungal blood infections. This selection is based on differential expression and an additional gene relevance measure. In this way, we identified 38 biomarker genes, including IL6, SOCS3, and IRG1 which were already associated to sepsis by other studies. Using these genes, we trained the classifier and assessed its performance. It yielded a 96% accuracy (sensitivities >93%, specificities >97%) for a 10-fold stratified cross-validation and a 92% accuracy (sensitivities and specificities >83%) for an additional dataset comprising Cryptococcus neoformans infections. Furthermore, the noise-robustness of the classifier suggests high rates of correct class predictions on datasets of new species. In conclusion, this genome-wide approach demonstrates an effective feature selection process in combination with the construction of a well-performing classification model. Further analyses of genes with pathogen-dependent expression patterns can provide insights into the systemic host responses, which may lead to new anti-microbial therapeutic advances. Analysis of innate immune activation on the basis of gene expression of whole blood cells during ex vivo whole blood infection with bacterial (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli) and fungal pathogens (Candida albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus) in comparison to mock-treated blood.

Project description:Leafy green vegetables, such as lettuce, have been increasingly implicated in outbreaks of foodborne illnesses due to contamination by Escherichia coli O157:H7. While E. coli can survive in soils, colonize plants, and survive on produce, very little is known about the interaction of E. coli with the roots of growing lettuce plants. In these studies, a combination of microarray analyses and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) were used to gain a comprehensive understanding of bacterial genes involved in the colonization and growth of E. coli O157:H7 on lettuce roots and compared to E. coli K12 using a hydroponic system (HS) which we have reported in the previous studies. Using microarray, after three days of interaction with lettuce roots, 94 and 109 genes of E. coli O157:H7 were significantly up-regulated and down-regulated at least 1.5 fold, respectively. Only 8 genes were also found in the E. coli K12 up-regulated genes. No genes were found in the down-regulated genes clusters between those two strains. For E. coli O157:H7, forty out of the 94 up-regulated genes (43%) were involved in protein synthesis and were highly repressed compared to 40 out of 193 (23%) E. coli K12 up-regulated genes associated with protein synthesis. The wildtype of E.coli O157:H7 colonized two log CFU per root less compared to E. coli K12. Genes involved in biofilm modulation (bhsA and ybiM) were significantly up-regulated in E. coli O157:H7 and curli production (crl and csgA) were found important for E. coli K12 to attach to lettuce roots in the previous studies. BhsA mutant of E. coli O157:H7 was impaired in the colonization of lettuce roots. The SERS spectra of E. coli K12 and O157 controls (cells without interacting with roots) were very similar. The spectra of E. coli K12 and O157 exposed to the hydroponic system (HS) showed some differences in the nucleic acid, protein, and lipid regions compared with controls. The spectra of E. coli K12 HS cells exhibited significant differences compared to spectra from E. coli O157 HS cells in the RNA and protein regions. The overall band intensity of amide regions declined for E. coli O157 HS cells, while it increased for E. coli K12 HS cells. The intensity of the RNA bands of E. coli K12 HS cells were also found much higher than those of E. coli O157 HS cells. These findings were in agreement to our Microarray data. Our microarray and SERS data showed that E. coli K12 and O157:H7 behavior dramatically differently in colonizing on lettuce roots. Compared to K12, E. coli O157:H7 colonized less efficiently on lettuce roots. Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains were grown in the lettuce rhizosphere for three days. Transcriptional profiling of E. coli was compared between cells grown with and without rhizosphere . Three biological replicates of each treatment were prepared, and six microarray slides were used.
