Project description:Tandem mass spectrometry based shotgun proteomics of distal gut microbiomes is exceedingly difficult due to the inherent complexity and taxonomic diversity of the samples. We introduce two new methodologies to improve metaproteomic studies of microbiome samples. These methods include the stable isotope labeling in mammals to permit protein quantitation across the two mouse cohorts, as well as the application of activity-based probes to enrich and analyze both host and microbial proteins with specific functionalities. We used these technologies to study the microbiota from the adoptive T cell transfer mouse model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and compare these samples to an isogenic control; thereby, limiting genetic and environmental variables that influence microbiome composition.

Project description:Significant gut microbiota heterogeneity exists amongst UC patients though the clinical implications of this variance are unknown. European and South Asian UC patients exhibit distinct disease risk alleles, many of which regulate immune function and relate to variation in gut microbiota β-diversity. We hypothesized ethnically distinct UC patients exhibit discrete gut microbiotas with unique luminal metabolic programming that influence adaptive immune responses and relate to clinical status. Using parallel bacterial 16S rRNA and fungal ITS2 sequencing of fecal samples (UC n=30; healthy n=13), we corroborated previous observations of UC-associated depletion of bacterial diversity and demonstrated significant gastrointestinal expansion of Saccharomycetales as a novel UC characteristic. We identified four distinct microbial community states (MCS 1-4), confirmed their existence using microbiota data from an independent UC cohort, and show they co-associate with patient ethnicity and degree of disease severity. Each MCS was predicted to be uniquely enriched for specific amino acid, carbohydrate, and lipid metabolism pathways and exhibited significant luminal enrichment of metabolic products from these pathways. Using a novel in vitro human DC/T-cell assay we show that DC exposure to patient fecal water led to MCS -specific changes in T-cell populations, particularly the Th1:Th2 ratio, and that patients with the most severe disease exhibited the greatest Th2 skewing. Thus, based on ethnicity, microbiome composition, and associated metabolic dysfunction, UC patients may be stratified in a clinically and immunologically meaningful manner, providing a platform for the development of FMC-focused therapy. Fecal microbiome was assessed with Affymetrix PhyloChip arrays from patients with ulcerative colitis and healthy controls.

Project description:Triclosan (TCS), an antimicrobial agent in thousands of consumer products, is a risk factor for colitis and colitis-associated colorectal cancer. While the intestinal toxicities of TCS require the presence of gut microbiota, the molecular mechanisms involved have not been defined. Here we show that intestinal commensal microbes mediate metabolic activation of TCS in the colon and drive its gut toxicology. Using a range of in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo approaches, we identify specific microbial β-glucuronidase (GUS) enzymes involved and pinpoint molecular motifs required to metabolically activate TCS in the gut. Finally, we show that targeted inhibition of bacterial GUS enzymes abolishes the colitis-promoting effects of TCS, supporting the essential roles of specific microbial proteins in TCS toxicity. Our results define a mechanism by which intestinal microbes cause the gut toxicity of environmental chemicals and suggest a therapeutic approach to alleviate colitis and associated diseases.

Project description:Gut bacterial β-glucuronidases (GUS) promote the toxic side effects of therapeutics by reactivating drugs from their inactive glucuronide conjugates. It is increasingly clear that the interindividual variability of bacterial GUS-producing species in the gut microbiota contributes to differential drug responses. Indeed, the anticancer drug irinotecan exhibits variable clinical toxicity outcomes that have been linked to interindividual differences in the composition of the gut microbiota. However, identification of the specific GUS enzymes responsible for drug metabolism in the context of the complexity of the human fecal microbiota has not been achieved. Here we pinpoint the specific bacterial GUS enzymes that reactivate SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan, from complex human fecal microbiota samples with activity-based protein profiling (ABPP). We identify and quantify gut bacterial GUS enzymes from human feces with ABPP-enabled proteomics and then integrate this information with ex vivo kinetics to reveal the specific GUS enzymes responsible for the reactivation of SN-38. The same ABPP approach also reveals the molecular basis for differential gut bacterial GUS inhibition between human fecal samples. Taken together, this work provides an unprecedented pipeline to identify the specific bacterial GUS enzymes responsible for drug-induced GI toxicity from the complexity of human feces, which may serve as highly precise biomarkers of clinical outcomes for irinotecan and other therapeutics.

Project description:Despite the involvement of several serine hydrolases (SHs) in the metabolism of xenobiotics such as dibutyl phthalate (DBP), no study has focused on mapping this enzyme class in zebrafish, a model organism frequently used in ecotoxicology. Here, we survey and identify active SHs in zebrafish larvae and search for biological markers of SH type after exposition to DBP. Zebrafish were exposed to 0, 5, and 100 µg/L DBP from 4 to 120 h post-fertilization. A significant decrease in vitellogenin expression level of about 2-fold compared to the control was found in larvae exposed to 100 µg/L DBP for 120h. The first comprehensive profiling of active SHs in zebrafish proteome was achieved with an activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) approach. Among 49 SHs identified with high confidence, one was the carboxypeptidase ctsa overexpressed in larvae exposed to 100 µg/L DBP for 120h. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a carboxypeptidase has been identified as deregulated following exposure to DBP. The overall results indicate that targeted proteomics approaches such as ABPP can therefore be an asset for understanding the mechanism of action related to xenobiotics in ecotoxicology.

Project description:Gut microbiota has profound effects on obesity and associated metabolic disorders. Targeting and shaping the gut microbiota via dietary intervention using probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics can be effective in obesity management. Despite the well-known association between gut microbiota and obesity, the microbial alternations by synbiotics intervention, especially at the functional level, are still not characterized. In this study, we investigated the effects of synbiotics on high fat diet (HFD)-induced metabolic disorders, and systematically profiled the microbial profile at both the phylogenetic and functional levels. Synbiotics significantly reversed the HFD-induced change of microbial populations at the levels of richness, taxa and OTUs. Potentially important species Faecalibaculum rodentium and Alistipes putredinis that might mediate the beneficial effects of synbiotics were identified. At the functional level, short chain fatty acid and bile acid profiles revealed that interventions significantly restored cecal levels of acetate, propionate, and butyrate, and synbiotics reduced the elevated total bile acid level. Metaproteomics revealed the effect of synbiotics might be mediated through pathways involved in carbohydrate, amino acid, and energy metabolisms, replication and repair, etc. These results suggested that dietary intervention using our novel synbiotics alleviated HFD-induced weight gain and restored microbial ecosystem homeostasis phylogenetically and functionally.

Project description:Toxicity of dichlorvos (DDVP), an organophosphate (OP) pesticide, classically results from modification of the serine in the active sites of cholinesterases. However, DDVP also forms adducts on unrelated targets such as transferrin and albumin, suggesting that DDVP causes cellular perturbation by modifying non-cholinesterase targets. Here, we identify novel DDVP-modified targets in lysates of a human hepatocyte-like cell line (HepaRG) using a direct LC-MS assay of DDVP exposed lysates or using a competitive pull-down experiments with a biotin-linked organophosphorus compound (10-fluoroethoxyphosphinyl-N-biotinamidopentyldecanamide; FP-biotin), which competes with DDVP for similar binding sites. Using these strategies, we show that DDVP forms adduct to several proteins important to the cellular metabolic pathways and cellular differentiation, including glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and actin. We validated the results using purified proteins and enzymatic assays. The study not only identified novel DDVP-modified targets but also suggested that the modification directly inhibits the enzymes. The current approach provides information for future hypothesis studies to understand the underlying mechanism of toxicity of DDVP in non-neuronal tissues.

Project description:Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) has emerged as a valuable chemical proteomics method to guide the therapeutic development of covalent drugs by assessing their on-target engagement and off-target activity. Recently, we reported on the establishment, by ABPP, of the serine hydrolase interaction landscape of the experimental drug BIA 10-2474, thereby providing a potential explanation for the adverse side effects observed with this compound. ABPP allows mapping of protein interaction landscapes of inhibitors in cells, tissues and animal models. Here, we describe a protocol for identifying the in vivo selectivity profile of covalent inhibitors using ABPP with label-free quantitative proteomics as exemplified by experimental data on the diacylglycerol lipase inhibitor DH376 in mouse brain, liver, kidney and testes. The protocol has been optimized using label-free quantification methods to have high proteome coverage and to allow the simultaneous comparison of multiple biological samples. The stages of the protocol include tissue lysis, probe incubation, enrichment, sample preparation, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry measurement, processing and data analysis. The results include evidence of target engagement in a native proteome and the identification of potential off-targets for the inhibitor under investigation. The entire protocol takes at least four days (depending on the number of samples).

Project description:A study evaluating the effect of stress resistance selection of Drosophila melanogaster. Abstract; Here, we report a detailed analysis of changes in gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster selected for multiple ecologically relevant environmental stress resistance traits. We analyzed females from three biological replicates from seven selection regimes and one control regime using whole genome gene expression arrays. Replicated selection lines were selected for resistance to acute heat survival, high temperature knock down, constant 30 degress C during development, cold shock survival, desiccation and starvation, respectively. Additionally, a set of replicated lines was selected for increased longevity. When compared to gene expression profiles of control lines, we were able to detect consistent selection responses at the transcript level in each specific selection regime and also found a group of differentially expressed genes that were generally changed among all selected lines. Replicated selection lines clustered together, i.e. showed similar changes in gene expression (compared to controls) and thus showed that 10 generations of artificial selection gives a clear signal among gene expression profiles. The changes in gene expression in lines selected for increased longevity, desiccation and starvation resistance, respectively, showed high similarities. Cold resistance selected lines showed little differentiation from controls. Different methods of heat selection (heat survival, heat knock down and constant 30 degrees C) showed little similarity verifying that different mechanism are involved in high temperature adaptation. The direction of change in gene expression in the selected lines showed a consistent pattern for each selection regime. For most selection regimes and in the comparison of all selected lines and controls exclusively up- or down regulation of gene expression among significant differentially expressed genes was found. The different responses to selection expressed in individual selection regimes and among all selected lines indicate that we have identified genes involved in stress specific and general stress response mechanisms. Experiment Overall Design: gene expression was measured in biological triplicates of control flies and flies selected for resistance to various stressors.

Project description:Morphine causes microbial dysbiosis. In this study we focused on restoration of native microbiota in morphine treated mice and looked at the extent of restoration and immunological consequences of this restoration. Fecal transplant has been successfully used clinically, especially for treating C. difficile infection2528. With our expanding knowledge of the central role of microbiome in maintenance of host immune homeostasis17, fecal transplant is gaining importance as a therapy for indications resulting from microbial dysbiosis. There is a major difference between fecal transplant being used for the treatment of C. difficile infection and the conditions described in our studies. The former strategy is based on the argument that microbial dysbiosis caused by disproportionate overgrowth of a pathobiont can be out-competed by re-introducing the missing flora by way of a normal microbiome transplant. This strategy is independent of host factors and systemic effects on the microbial composition. Here, we show that microbial dysbiosis caused due to morphine can be reversed by transplantation of microbiota from the placebo-treated animals.
