Project description:The ancient preserved molecules in bones offer the opportunity to gain a better knowledge on the biological past. In recent years, bones proteomics has become an attractive method to study extinct species and phylogenetic evolution as an alternative to DNA analysis which is limited by DNA amplification present in ancient samples and its contamination. The analysis of fossils must consume a low quantity of material to avoid damaging the samples. Another difficulty is the absence of genomic data for most of the extinct species. This study applied a proteomic methodology to mammalian bones of 130,000 / 120,000 years old from the last Chibanian and the earlier Upper Pleistocene site of Waziers (France). The presence of lithic artefacts and the traces of butchery observed on the bones indicate the presence of Neanderthal Man on this site. Starting from 5 milligram samples, our results show that most detected peptides match collagen I alpha 1 and alpha 2 proteins with a sequence coverage up to 60 %. Using sequence homology with modern sequences, a biological classification was successfully achieved. Each bone taxonomic rank by proteomics was consistent with the existing osteomorphological studies and palaeoenvironmental and palaeodietary data.

Project description:Ancient DNA (aDNA) sequencing has enabled reconstruction of speciation, migration, and admixture events for extinct taxa. Outside the permafrost, however, irreversible aDNA post-mortem degradation has so far limited aDNA recovery to the past ~0.5 million years (Ma). Contrarily, multiple analyses suggested the presence of protein residues in Cretaceous fossil remains. Similarly, tandem mass spectrometry (MS) allowed sequencing ~1.5 million year (Ma) old collagen type I (COL1), though with limited phylogenetic use. In the absence of molecular evidence, the speciation of several Early and Middle Pleistocene extinct species remain contentious. In this study, we address the phylogenetic relationships of the Eurasian Pleistocene Rhinocerotidae using a ~1.77 Ma old dental enamel proteome of a Stephanorhinus specimen from the Dmanisi archaeological site in Georgia (South Caucasus). Molecular phylogenetic analyses place the Dmanisi Stephanorhinus as a sister group to the woolly (Coelodonta antiquitatis) and Merck’s rhinoceros (S. kirchbergensis) clade. We show that Coelodonta evolved from an early Stephanorhinus lineage and that the latter includes at least two distinct evolutionary lines. As such, the genus Stephanorhinus is currently paraphyletic and requires systematic revision. We demonstrate that Early Pleistocene dental enamel proteome sequencing overcomes the limits of ancient collagen- and aDNA-based phylogenetic inference. It also provides additional information about the sex and taxonomic assignment of the specimens analysed. Dental enamel, the hardest tissue in vertebrates, is highly abundant in the fossil record. Our findings reveal that palaeoproteomic investigation of this material can push biomolecular investigation further back into the Early Pleistocene.

Project description:We generated human induced pluripotent cells from intellectual disability patients carrying the c.2T>C mutation in KDM5C (Called “Mutant”). We generated a paired, isogenic human iPS cell line (called “Corrected”) using CRISPR/Cas9 and PiggyBac gene-editing technologies and conducted neuronal differentiation based on “Yichen Shi et al. Nat. Protoc. 7, 1836–1846 (2012)” to define differences in gene expression between the Mutant and Corrected during neurodevelopment.

Project description:The estimation of the post-mortem interval (PMI) and the age-at-death (AAD) are crucial steps in the medico-legal investigation of unidentified human remains. Current methods to estimate PMI and AAD suffer from a lack of accuracy and objectivity, particularly when the remains are in an advanced state of decomposition. Recently, proteomics studies using animal models have identified potential biomarkers for PMI and AAD estimation. This study investigated the human bone proteome in four human body donors studied throughout decomposition outdoors. We compared different bone tissues (tibia and iliac crest) from body donors of known AAD, and compared bone samples taken shortly after death to bone samples upon complete skeletonization of the body. The effects of ageing phenomena (in vivo and post-mortem) and the surrounding environment on the variability and abundancy of the bone proteome were assessed.

Project description:We performed shotgun proteomics of human remains using rib bones from the Hitotsubashi site (1657–1683 AD) in Tokyo, called Edo in ancient times. Two infants and six adults, including four elderly adults, were obtained from the skeletal collection of the Hitotsubashi site in Tokyo, Japan. The individuals buried in this graveyard are townspeople, known from the fact that the largest proportion of graves consisted of the wooden coffins typically used for the lower social classes. The sex and age at death of the adult skeletons were estimated using the diagnostic standards of Nagaoka and Hirata (Nagaoka et al., 2007). Sex was determined by the sexual dimorphism of the pelvis (e.g., Bruzek, 2002). This study estimated age at death for each individual by the observation of the auricular surface of the ilium using the method of Buckberry and Chamberlain. Each obtained stage of the auricular surface of the ilium is then transformed into an average age at death with standard deviation shown in the data of Buckberry and Chamberlain. The age at death of sub-adults was estimated by the degree of formation and eruption of teeth.

Project description:Bone is a dynamic organ in which bone formation mediated by osteoblasts balances against bone resorption mediated by osteoclasts to maintain bone homeostasis. With age, this balance gradually tilts toward bone resorption, leading to bone loss and osteoporosis. At the present study, the bone specimens from children (group A), middle-aged patients (group B), and older individuals (group C) were subjected to proteomics analysis by LC-MS/MS.

Project description:This study investigated the global effect of carbon monoxide (CO) gas (250 ppm) on LPS- induced gene expression in THP-1 cells. CO predominantly suppresses LPS-induced gene response. Of the CO-suppressed genes, 18% were transcription factors and most others were cytokines, chemokines and immune response genes. Sequence analysis B binding siteskappafound that 81% of the gene promoters have putative NF- These results suggest that CO inhibits LPS-induced inflammatory B signaling pathwayresponse through regulating NF- The microarrays were performed on THP-1 cells, a human monocytic cell line. Cells were treated with or without LPS (1 ug/ml) in presence or absence of carbon monoxide (250 ppm) for 1 h. Total RNA was isolated, reverse transcribed, labeled and hybridized to oligonucleotide microarrays.

Project description:In this study, an α2(VI) deficient mouse (Col6α2-KO) model was used to examine the role of Type VI collagen in oral tissues. To examine bone properties, µCT was employed, and bone volume and bone mineral density (BMD) was measured in oral tissues. To further investigate its molecular basis, proteome analysis was performed using protein extracted from alveolar bone. In addition, alveolar bone loss progression was evaluated with a periodontitis induced model. µCT analysis showed the Col6α2- KO mice had less volume of alveolar bone, dentin and dental pulp, while the width of periodontal ligament (PDL) was greater than WT. The BMD in alveolar bone and dentin were elevated in Col6α2-KO mice compared with WT. Our proteome analysis showed significant changes in proteins related to ECM organization and elevation of proteins associated with biomineralization in the Col6α2-KO mice. In induced periodontitis, Col6α2-KO mice had greater alveolar bone loss compared to WT. In conclusion, Type VI collagen has role in controlling biomineralization in alveolar bone and that changes in the ECM of alveolar bone could be associated with greater bone loss from periodontitis.

Project description:In this experiment we define the transcriptome of the adult mouse skeleton by performing total-RNA transcriptome-sequencing on osteocytes, the critical regulatory cells in bone. Osteocytes from 16 week-old male mice (n=8) were isolated for 4 bone types across the skeleton: the tibia, femur, humerus, and calvaria. All other soft tissues including marrow were removed from samples before sequencing.
