Project description:We report a next-generation sequencing of total RNA from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 grown in presence of rosmarinic acid (RA) 100mM. Data analysis in comparison with cells grown in absence of RA revealed that the plant compound RA induces a broad transcriptional response in this bacterium, quite similar to the quorum sensing response.
Project description:Analysis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 treated with 200 µM sphingomyelin. Results provide insight into the response to sphingomyelin in P. aeruginosa.
Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 persister and normal cells were treated with and without Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) to understand the effect of GM-CSF on gene expression of PAO1. We used DNA microarrays to identify the down-regulated and up-regulated genes after GM-CSF treatment.

Project description:The ParS/ParR two component regulatory system plays important roles for multidrug resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In this study we report RNA-seq analyses of the transcriptomes of P. aeruginosa PAO1 wild type and par mutants growing in a minimal medium containing 2% casamino acids. This has allowed the quantification of PAO1 transcriptome, and further defines the regulon that is dependent on the ParS/ParR system for expression. Our RNA-seq analysis produced the first estimates of absolute transcript abundance for the 5570 coding genes in P. aeruginosa PAO1. Comparative transcriptomics of P. aeruginosa PAO1 and par mutants identified a total of 464 genes regulated by ParS and ParR. Results also showed that mutations in the parS/parR system abolished the expression of the mexEF-oprN operon by down-regulating the regulatory gene mexS. In addition to affecting drug resistance genes, transcripts of quorum sensing genes (rhlIR and pqsABCDE-phnAB), were significantly up-regulated in both parS and parR mutants. Consistent with these results, a significant portion of the ParS/ParR regulated genes belonged to the MexEF-OprN and quorum sensing regulons. Deletion of par genes also lead to overproduction of phenazines and increased swarming motility, consistent with the up-regulation of quorum sensing genes. Our results established a link among ParS/ParR, MexEF-OprN and quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Based on these results, we propose a model to illustrate the relationship among these regulatory systems in P. aeruginosa. A total of 9 samples were analyzed in AB medium + 2% casamino acids, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 wild type strain (3 replicates); Pseudomonas aeruginosa parS mutant (3 replicates); Pseudomonas aeruginosa parR mutant (3 replicates).

Project description:To further determine the origin of the increased virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14 compared to Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, we report a transcriptomic approach through RNA sequencing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutioned sistems-based analsis of transcriptomic pathways. The goals of this study are to compare the transcriptomic profile of all 5263 orthologous genes of these nearly two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Project description:A special immune system exists at distinct respiratory epithelium to combat invasion by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO1). This study aimes to determine if interleukin-17C (IL-17C) is correlated with acute PAO1 infection in human nasal epithelium and to prove the role of IL-17C on iron sequestration during PAO1 infection. IL-17C has antipseudomonal effect by lowering iron sequestration and reducing siderophore activity. IL-17C could be efficient mediator to control PAO1 infection in human nasal epithelium.
