Multi-organ proteomics of rhesus macaque for prototype proteome bank of non–human primate

ABSTRACT: Though the rhesus monkey is one of the most valuable non-human primate animal models for various human diseases because of its manageable size and genetic and proteomic similarities with humans, proteomic research using rhesus monkeys still remains challenging due to the lack of a complete protein sequence database and sufficient proteomic information. In this project, proteomic profiling of multiple organ tissues, 9 male and 11 female were performed in an automated, high-throughput manner employing annotated UniProtKB human database. Based on the success of this alternative interpretation of MS data, the list of proteins identified from total 12 organs of male and female subjects will benefit future rhesus monkey proteome research.

Though the rhesus monkey is one of the most valuable non-human primate animal models for various human diseases because of its manageable size and genetic and proteomic similarities with humans, proteomic research using rhesus monkeys still remains challenging due to the lack of a complete protein sequence database and effective strategy. To investigate the most effective and high-throughput proteomic strategy, comparative data analysis was performed employing various protein databases and searc ...[more]

Project description:Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) may be able to cure or alleviate the symptoms of various degenerative diseases. However, unresolved issues regarding apoptosis, maintaining function and tumor formation mean a prudent approach should be taken towards advancing ESCs into human clinical trials. The rhesus monkey provides the ideal model organism for developing strategies to prevent immune rejection and test the feasibility, safety and efficacy of ESC-based medical treatments. Transcriptional profiling of rhesus ESCs provides a foundation for future pre-clinical ESC research using non-human primates as the model organism. In this research we use microarray, immunocytochemistry, real-time and standard RT-PCR to characterize and transcriptionally profile rhesus monkey embryonic stem cells. We identify 367 rhesus monkey stemness genes, we demonstrate the high level (>85%) of conservation of rhesus monkey stemness gene expression across five different rhesus monkey embryonic stem cell lines, we demonstrate that rhesus monkey ESC lines maintain a pluripotent undifferentiated state over a wide range of Pou5f1 (Oct-4) expression levels and we compare rhesus monkey, human and murine stemness genes to identify the key mammalian stemness genes. The supplementary tables list the genes that have been upregulated in each undifferentiated rhesus monkey embryonic stem cell line (GSM99998, GSM99999,GSM100000, GSM100001, GSM100002, GSM99965, GSM99966) in comparison analysis with the pooled differentiated embryonic stem cells (GSM99840). Supplemental Table 1 contains the comparison analysis for all 52,865 probe sets on the rhesus monkey gene chip, Supplemental Table 2 contains the rhesus monkey genes that were significantly upregulated (FC>3) in the ORMES-6 biological replicates, Supplemental Table 3 contains the rhesus monkey genes that were significantly upregulated (FC>3) in the pooled differentiated EBs and Supplemental Tables 4-8 represent genes that were significantly upregulated in ORMES 6A, 7, 9, 10 and 13 respectively. Supplemental Table 9 contains the RT-PCR primers used in this project. Keywords: Rhesus monkey embryonic stem cell microarray

Project description:Plasmodium falciparum gametocyte stages represent a small fraction of the entire parasite biomass that is present during human malaria infection, yet they alone lead to the transmission of this devastating disease. One of the critical gaps in malaria transmission biology and surveillance is our lack of knowledge about gametocyte biology, especially sexual dimorphic development that may influence transmission from the human to the mosquito. Ratios of male and female gametocytes in the peripheral blood can vary significantly; influenced in part by asexual blood stage and gametocyte density as well as vertebrate and invertebrate host factors. Moreover, the role of sex ratios on gametocyte transmission potential to mosquitoes is unknown and dissecting this process has been hampered by the lack of sex-specific protein markers for the circulating, mature stage V gametocytes. The current evidence suggests a high degree of conservation in gametocyte gene complement across Plasmodium, and therefore presumably for sex-specific genes as well. Therefore, to better our understanding of gametocyte development and subsequent infectiousness to mosquitoes, we undertook a two pronged approach. First, we acquired the mixed, male and female stage V gametocyte proteomes of the NF54 isolate and mature stage V female proteome from Dd2, a strain that is defective in producing mature males. Second, we then undertook a Systematic Subtractive Bioinformatic analysis (filtering) approach to identify sex-specific P. falciparum NF54 protein markers based on a comparison with the Dd2 strain and syntenic male and female proteins from the reanalyzed and updated P. berghei (related rodent malaria parasite) gametocyte proteomes. This has produced a short list of putative 174 male- and 258 female-specific P. falciparum stage V proteins. Furthermore, we generated antibodies against three putative female-specific gametocyte stage V proteins in P. falciparum and confirmed sex-specificity for two proteins and also the loss sex-partitioning for a putative female-specific protein in rodent malaria parasites.
