Project description:Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is formed by heterogeneous ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament. The patho-mechanism of OPLL is still largely unknown. MicroRNAs are small nucleatides that function as regulators of gene expression in almost any biological process. However, few microRNAs are reported to have a role in the pathological process of OPLL. Therefore, we performed high-throughput microRNA sequencing and transcriptome sequencing of primary OPLL and PLL cells in order to decipher the interacting network of microRNAs in OPLL. MRNA and microRNA profiles were done using primary culture cells of human ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) tissue and normal posterior longitudinal ligament (PLL) tissue.

Project description:Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is formed by heterogeneous ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament. The patho-mechanism of OPLL is still largely unknown. Recently, disorders of metabolism are thought to be the center of many diseases such as OPLL. Advanced glycation end product (AGE) are accumulated in many extracellular matrixes such as ligament fibers, and it can functions as cellular signal through its receptor (RAGE), contributing to various events such as atherosclerosis or oxidative stress. However, its role in OPLL formation is not yet known. Therefore, we performed high-through-put RNA sequencing on primary posterior longitudinal ligament cells treated with different doses of AGEs (1µM, 5µM and negative control), with or without BMP2 (1µM). mRNA profiles of Primary human posterior longitudinal ligament cells stimulated with various stimuli (Control, 1µM AGE-BSA, 5µM AGE-BSA, 1µM AGE-BSA with BMP2, 5µM AGE-BSA with BMP2) were generated by deep sequencing on Ion Proton

Project description:We report for the first time movement of Correia Repeat Enclosed Elements, through inversion of the element at its chromosomal location. Analysis of Ion Torrent generated genome sequence data from Neisseria gonorrhoeae strain NCCP11945 passaged for 8 weeks in the laboratory under standard conditions and stress conditions revealed a total of 37 inversions: 24 were exclusively seen in the stressed sample; 7 in the control sample; and the remaining 3 were seen in both samples. These inversions have the capability to alter gene expression in N. gonorrhoeae through the previously determined activities of the sequence features of these elements. In addition, the locations of predicted non-coding RNAs were investigated to identify potential associations with CREE. Associations varied between strains, as did the number of each element identified. The analysis indicates a role for CREE in disrupting ancestral regulatory networks, including non-coding RNAs. RNA-Seq was used to examine expression changes related to Correia repeats in the strain

Project description:BACKGROUND Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a complicated aortic dilatation disease. Metabolomics is an emerging system biology method. This aim of this study was to identify abnormal metabolites and metabolic pathways associated with AAA and to discover potential biomarkers that could affect the size of AAAs. MATERIAL AND METHODS An untargeted metabolomic method was used to analyze the plasma metabolic profiles of 39 patients with AAAs and 30 controls. Multivariate analysis methods were used to perform differential metabolite screening and metabolic pathway analysis. Cluster analysis and univariate analysis were performed to identify potential metabolites that could affect the size of an AAA. RESULTS Forty-five different metabolites were identified with an orthogonal projection to latent squares-discriminant analysis model and the differences between them in the patients with AAAs and the control group were compared. A variable importance in the projection score >1 and P<0.05 were considered statistically significant. In patients with AAAs, the pathways involving metabolism of alanine, aspartate, glutamate, D-glutamine, D-glutamic acid, arginine, and proline; tricarboxylic acid cycling; and biosynthesis of arginine are abnormal. The progression of an AAA may be related to 13 metabolites: citric acid, 2-oxoglutarate, succinic acid, coenzyme Q1, pyruvic acid, sphingosine-1-phosphate, platelet-activating factor, LysoPC (16: 00), lysophosphatidylcholine (18: 2(9Z,12Z)/0: 0), arginine, D-aspartic acid, and L- and D-glutamine. CONCLUSIONS An untargeted metabolomic analysis using ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry identified metabolites that indicate disordered metabolism of energy, lipids, and amino acids in AAAs.

Project description:Microorganisms can restructure their transcriptional output to adapt to environmental conditions by sensing endogenous metabolite pool. In this study, an Agilent customized microarray representing approximately 4,106 genes was used to study temporal transcript profiles of Bacillus subtilis in response to valine, glutamate and glutamine pulses. Amino-acid-regulated genes were identified having significantly changed expression at one or more time points in response to pulses of valine, glutamate, and glutamine, respectively, and Val-, Glu and Gln-specific genes were further distinguished from them. Different amino acid treatments were compared in terms of both the global temporal profiles and the 5-minute quick regulations, and between-experiment differential genes were identified. The highlighted genes were analyzed based on diverse sources of gene functions using a variety of computational tools, including T-profiler analysis, hierarchical clustering and enrichment of functional categories. The results revealed the common and distinct modes of action of these three amino acids, and should help to elucidate the specific signaling mechanism of each amino acid as an effector. Three amino acids (Glutamate, Glutamine, and Valine) were adopted to perturb the culture of subtilis. Four time-points were investigated for each perturbation. There are two replicates for the first time-point of Valine-treatment experiment.

Project description:Heteromeric amino acid transporters (HATs) comprise a group of membrane proteins that belong to the solute carrier (SLC) superfamily. They are formed by two different protein components: a light chain subunit from an SLC7 family member and a heavy chain subunit from the SLC3 family. The light chain constitutes the transport subunit whereas the heavy chain mediates trafficking to the plasma membrane and maturation of the functional complex. Mutation, malfunction, and dysregulation of HATs are associated with a wide range of pathologies or represent the direct cause of inherited and acquired disorders. Here we report the cryogenic electron microscopy structure of the neutral and basic amino acid transport complex (b[0,+]AT1-rBAT) which reveals a heterotetrameric protein assembly composed of two heavy and light chain subunits, respectively. The previously uncharacterized interaction between two HAT units is mediated via dimerization of the heavy chain subunits and does not include participation of the light chain subunits. The b(0,+)AT1 transporter adopts a LeuT fold and is captured in an inward-facing conformation. We identify an amino-acid-binding pocket that is formed by transmembrane helices 1, 6, and 10 and conserved among SLC7 transporters.

Project description:The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is overwhelming the healthcare systems. Identification of systemic reactions underlying COVID-19 will lead to new biomarkers and therapeutic targets for monitoring and early intervention in this viral infection. We performed targeted metabolomics covering up to 630 metabolites within several key metabolic pathways in plasma samples of 20 hospitalized COVID-19 patients and 37 matched controls. Plasma metabolic signatures specifically differentiated severe COVID-19 from control patients. The identified metabolic signatures indicated distinct alterations in both lipid and amino acid metabolisms in COVID-19 compared to control patient plasma. Systems biology-based analyses identified sphingolipid, tryptophan, tyrosine, glutamine, arginine, and arachidonic acid metabolism as mostly impacted pathways in COVID-19 patients. Notably, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was significantly reduced in COVID-19 patients and GABA plasma levels allowed for stratification of COVID-19 patients with high sensitivity and specificity. The data reveal large metabolic disturbances in COVID-19 patients and suggest use of GABA as potential biomarker and therapeutic target for the infection.
