Project description:Piscirickettsiosis or salmonid rickettsial septicemia (SRS) caused by intracellular Gram-negative bacterial pathogen, Piscirickettsia salmonis, constitutes one of the main infectious diseases in salmonid aquaculture. In the present study, we aimed to explore the transcriptomic responses in the Atlantic salmon kidney following a low dose of EM-90-like P. salmonis infection using the consortium for Genomic Research on All Salmonids Project (cGRASP)-designed Agilent 44K salmonid oligonucleotide microarray. Two infection level phenotypes [low (L-SRS) and high (H-SRS) infection level] were revealed in infected individuals at 21 days post-injection (DPI) based on multivariate analyses of expression of four antibacterial biomarker transcripts (campb, hampa, il8a, tlr5a) and pathogen level measured by qPCR. Five fish from each group (Control, L-SRS, and H-SRS) were selected for transcriptome profiling. We identified 1636 and 3076 differentially expressed probes (DEPs) in the L-SRS and H-SRS groups, respectively (FDR = 0.01).

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii has numerous, large, paralogous gene families that are likely critical for supporting its unparalleled host range: nearly any nucleated cell in almost any warm-blooded animal. The SRS (SAG1-related sequence) gene family encodes over 100 proteins, the most abundant of which are thought to be involved in parasite attachment and, based on their stage-specific expression, evading the host immune response. For most SRS proteins, however, little is understood about their function and expression profile. Single-parasite RNA-sequencing previously demonstrated that across an entire population of lab-grown tachyzoites, transcripts for over 70 SRS genes were detected in at least one parasite. In any one parasite, however, transcripts for an average of only 7 SRS genes were detected, two of which, SAG1 and SAG2A, were extremely abundant and detected in virtually all. These data do not address whether this pattern of sporadic SRS gene expression is consistently inherited among the progeny of a given parasite or arises independently of lineage. We hypothesized that if SRS expression signatures are stably inherited by progeny, subclones isolated from a cloned parent would be more alike in their expression signatures than they are to the offspring of another clone. In this report, we compare transcriptomes of clonally derived parasites to determine the degree to which expression of the SRS family is stably inherited in individual parasites. Our data indicate that in RH tachyzoites, SRS genes are variably expressed even between parasite samples subcloned from the same parent within approximately 10 parasite divisions (72 hours). This suggests that the pattern of sporadically expressed SRS genes is highly variable and not driven by inheritance mechanisms, at least under our conditions.

Project description:Morphine and its pharmacological derivatives are the most prescribed analgesics for moderate to severe pain management. However, chronic use of morphine reduces pathogen clearance and induces bacterial translocation across the gut barrier. The enteric microbiome has been shown to play a critical role in the preservation of the mucosal barrier function and metabolic homeostasis. Here, we show for the first time, using bacterial 16s rDNA sequencing, that chronic morphine treatment significantly alters the gut microbial composition and induces preferential expansion of the gram-positive pathogenic and reduction of bile-deconjugating bacterial strains. A significant reduction in both primary and secondary bile acid levels was seen in the gut, but not in the liver with morphine treatment. Morphine induced microbial dysbiosis and gut barrier disruption was rescued by transplanting placebo-treated microbiota into morphine-treated animals, indicating that microbiome modulation could be exploited as a therapeutic strategy for patients using morphine for pain management. In this study, we establish a link between the two phenomena, namely gut barrier compromise and dysregulated bile acid metabolism. We show for the first time that morphine fosters significant gut microbial dysbiosis and disrupts cholesterol/bile acid metabolism. Changes in the gut microbial composition is strongly correlated to disruption in host inflammatory homeostasis13,14 and in many diseases (e.g. cancer/HIV infection), persistent inflammation is known to aid and promote the progression of the primary morbidity. We show here that chronic morphine, gut microbial dysbiosis, disruption of cholesterol/bile acid metabolism and gut inflammation; have a linear correlation. This opens up the prospect of devising minimally invasive adjunct treatment strategies involving microbiome and bile acid modulation and thus bringing down morphine-mediated inflammation in the host.

Project description:Difference in gut microbiome is linked with health, disease and eventually host fitness, however, the molecular mechanisms by which this variation affects the host fitness are not well characterized. Here, we modified the fish gut microbiota by using antibiotic and probiotic to address the effect of host microbiome on gene expression pattern by using transcriptome.

Project description:Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has been shown to be efficacious for treatment of limited brain metastasis (BM), however, the effects of SRS on human brain metastases have yet to be studied. We performed genomic analysis of resected brain metastases from patients whose resected lesion was previously treated with SRS. Our analyses demonstrated for the first time that patients possess a distinct genomic signature based on type of treatment failure including local failure, leptomeningeal spread, and radio-necrosis. Examination of the center and peripheral edge of the tumors treated with SRS indicated differential DNA damage distribution and an enrichment for tumor suppressor mutations and DNA damage repair pathways along the peripheral edge. Furthermore, the two clinical modalities used to deliver SRS, LINAC and GK, demonstrated differential effects on the tumor landscape even between controlled primary sites. Our study provides, in humans, biological evidence of differential effects of SRS across BM’s.

Project description:Erythromycin (ERY) is a commonly used antibiotic that can be found in wastewater effluents globally. Due to the mechanisms by which they kill and prevent bacterial growth, antibiotics can have significant unwanted impacts on the fish gut microbiome. The overall objective of this project was to assess the effects of erythromycin and an antibiotic mixture on fish gut microbiomes. The project was split into two experiments to assess gut microbiome in response to exposure with ERY alone or in mixture with other common antibiotics. The objectives of experiment 1 were to understand uptake and depuration of ERY in juvenile rainbow trout (RBT) over a 7 d uptake followed by a 7 d depuration period using three concentrations of ERY. Furthermore, throughout the study changes in gut microbiome response were assessed. In experiment 2, a follow-up study was conducted using an identical experimental design to assess the impacts of an antibiotic-mixture (ERY, ampicillin, metronidazole, and ciprofloxacin at 100 µg/g each). Here, three matrices were analyzed, with gut collected for 16s metabarcoding, plasma for untargeted metabolomics, and brain for mRNA-seq analysis. ERY was depurated from the fish relatively quickly and gut microbiome dysbiosis was observed at 7 d after exposure, with a slight recovery after the 7 d depuration period. A greater number of plasma metabolites was dysregulated at 14 d compared to 7 d revealing temporality compared to gut microbiome dysbiosis. Furthermore, several transformation products of antibiotics and biomarker metabolites were observed in plasma due to antibiotic exposure. Brain transcriptome revealed only slight alterations due to antibiotic exposure. The results of these studies will help inform aquaculture practitioners and risk assessors when assessing the potential impacts of antibiotics in fish feed and the environment, with implications for host health.

Project description:Opioid analgesics are frequently prescribed in the United States and worldwide. However, serious side effects such as addiction, immunosuppression and gastrointestinal symptoms limit long term use. In the current study using a chronic morphine-murine model a longitudinal approach was undertaken to investigate the role of morphine modulation of gut microbiome as a mechanism contributing to the negative consequences associated with opioids use. The results revealed a significant shift in the gut microbiome and metabolome within 24 hours following morphine treatment when compared to placebo. Morphine induced gut microbial dysbiosis exhibited distinct characteristic signatures profiles including significant increase in communities associated with pathogenic function, decrease in communities associated with stress tolerance. Collectively, these results reveal opioids-induced distinct alteration of gut microbiome, may contribute to opioids-induced pathogenesis. Therapeutics directed at these targets may prolong the efficacy long term opioid use with fewer side effects.

Project description:Function-damaging variants in the TRIO gene are enriched in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). TRIO encodes a cytoskeletal regulatory protein with three catalytic domains – two guanine exchange factor (GEF) domains, GEF1 and GEF2, and a kinase domain, as well as several accessory domains that have not been extensively studied. Disease variants in the GEF1 domain or the nine adjacent spectrin repeats (SRs) are enriched in NDDs, suggesting that dysregulated GEF1 activity is linked to these disorders. We provide evidence here that the Trio SRs interact intramolecularly with the GEF1 domain to inhibit its activity. We demonstrate that SRs 6-9 decrease GEF1 catalytic activity both in vitro and in cells and show that NDD-associated variants in the SR8 and GEF1 domains relieve this autoinhibitory constraint. Our results from chemical cross-linking and BioLayer Interferometry indicate that the SRs primarily contact the PH region of the GEF1 domain, reducing GEF1 binding to Rac1. Together, our findings reveal a key regulatory mechanism that is commonly disrupted in multiple NDDs and may offer a new target for therapeutic intervention for TRIO-associated NDDs.
