Project description:Trichuris muris is very closely related to the human parasite T. trichiura sharing cross reactive antigens. Moreover, it is a remarkably tractable model system for dissecting immune responses and host parasite relationships and is actively being investigated in a number of laboratories worldwide. T. muris is a naturally occurring nematode parasite of mice which resides in the caecum and colon and has a direct oral faecal life cycle. High-throughput sequencing of Trichuris muris transcriptome for de novo assembly of transcripts. The main objective of this project is to recognize genes expressed in given life stages. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

Project description:This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/ The human-infective whipworm Trichuris trichiura is estimated to infect up to a billion people and is responsible for considerable morbidity, especially in children of developing countries. The closely related species T. muris is a naturally occurring nematode parasite of mice that serves as a remarkably tractable model system for dissecting immune responses and host-parasite relationships. Such studies are of relevance beyond parasitology as helminths have arguably had a significant impact on the evolution of the mammalian immune system. Both Trichuris species reside in the caecum and colon of the host where they burrow their front end for feeding into the intestinal mucosa, thereby breaching the mucus barrier and allowing access of the microflora directly to the epithelium. The interplay of intestinal helminths, the bacterial microflora and the host immune system is currently a research focus in various laboratories (Bancroft et al 2012). This study will study the transcriptional responses of the intestinal mucosa (caecum) from infected and uninfected mice.

Project description:Helminth infection may have the potential to suppress intestinal inflammation in inflammatory bowel diseases. Ulcerative colitis is more common in developed countries than in developing countries endemic for helminth infections. There are animal models, as well as clinical trials, suggesting therapeutic effects of experimental helminth infection. Here, we provide a comprehensive molecular portrait of dynamic changes in the intestinal mucosa of an individual who infected himself with Trichuris trichiura to treat his symptoms of ulcerative colitis. Genes involved in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism were upregulated in helminth-colonized tissue, while tissues with active colitis showed upregulation of proinflammatory genes such as IL-17, IL13RA2, and CHI3L1. T. trichiura colonization of the intestine may reduce symptomatic colitis by promoting goblet cell hyperplasia and mucus production through TH2 cytokines and IL-22. By better understanding the physiological effects of helminth infection, new therapies for ulcerative colitis could be identified. This is the second (out of three) series of arrays from this patient from a colonoscopy in 2008 when the patient was suffering from severe colitis but still had worms in the ascending colon.
