Project description:The systemic response to injury in Drosophila melanogaster is characterized by the activation of specific signaling pathways that facilitate the regeneration of wounded tissue and help coordinate wound healing with organism growth. The mechanisms by which damaged tissues influence the development and function of peripheral non-injured tissues is not fully understood. Injury was induced in early third instar larvae via temperature-dependent cell death in wing imaginal discs. Microarray analysis using RNA isolated from injured and control was used to identify genes underlying the systemic injury response. We identified 150 genes which were differentially expressed in response to localized cell death in wing imaginal discs. Upregulated genes were associated biological processes including carnitine biosynthesis, signal transduction and regulation of oxidoreductase activity while terms associated with downregulated genes included wound healing, imaginal disc-derived wing hair outgrowth, and regulation of glutamatergic synaptic transmission. Pathway analysis revealed that wing disc damage led to changes in fatty acid, cysteine, and carnitine metabolism. One gene, 14-3-3ζ, which encodes a known regulator of Ras/MAPK signaling was identified as a potential regulator of transdetermination during tissue regeneration. Our results raise the possibility that immune function and cell proliferation during wing disc repair and regeneration in Drosophila may require the sulfur amino acid cysteine and its’ metabolites, taurine and glutathione, similar to what has been reported during tissue repair in mammals. Further, it seems likely that imaginal disc damage stimulates the mobilization of fatty acids to support the energetically demanding process of tissue regeneration. The roles of additional genes that are differentially regulated following imaginal disc injury remain to be elucidated.

Project description:Research on the ability of certain organisms to reconstruct missing structures of their bodies is still in its infancy, despite numerous efforts performed in multiple species. Using expression profile analyses on different timepoints that cover wound healing and regeneration processes (0, 24 and 72 hours post injury), we studied the regenerative behaviour of fragmented wing imaginal discs of D. melanogaster implanted into adult flies. First, through the comparison between cut and intact discs, we identified the effect of implantation on the regeneration process. Filtering this information, we then constructed the specific early regeneration gene signature of wing discs in which multiple transcription factors, immune response genes and members of the JNK, Notch and WNT signaling pathways seem to play an important role. We next compared the transcriptomes of discs 24 and 72 hours after fragmentation to characterize the regenerative machinery and observed a temporal decrease in the cellular metabolic processes, RNA processing and gene expression machinery, suggesting the discs normal activity was stopped on this first interval of time in response to injury and implantation offences. Based on the expression patterns, we elaborated a catalogue of genes involved in wing disc regeneration divided into four classes (wound healing, regeneration, quick response, constant response). Imaginal discs from third instar larvae were 3/4 fragmented, implanted into the abdomen of adult flies and cultured. In order to subtract the noise due to implantation, we repeated the same protocol using intact discs that were cultivated for 24h. Therefore, a total of 12 microarrays were hybridized: four microarrays (with total RNA from non cut wing discs at 0 and 24 hours) were used to assess the effect of the implantation procedure in intact wing discs and the rest (8) were used to measure changes in gene expression in the first 24 hours after disc dissection and implantation (total RNA from wing discs at 0 and 24 hours was hybridized) and during the period between 24 and 72 hours after the cut (total RNA from wing discs at 24 and 72 hours was hybridized). At least two independent total RNA extractions were carried out (using the RNeasy Protect Mini Kit from Qiagen Inc.) for each condition. The four microarrays hybridized for each pair of conditions were done in biological replicate pairs with dyes swapped to take dye bias into account. The whole set of microarrays was normalized following the same protocol, extracting in each case the list of significant genes (at least 1.5-fold change, FDR adjusted pvalue < 0.05).
