Project description:Cancer-associated stroma (CAS) profoundly influences development and progression of tumours including mammary carcinoma (mCA). Spontaneous canine simple mCA represent relevant models of human mCA, notably also with respect to CAS reprogramming. While transcriptomic changes in CAS of mCA are well described, it remains unclear to what extent these differences translate to the protein level. Therefore, we sought to gain insight into the proteomic changes in CAS and compare them with transcriptomic changes in the same tissue. To this end, we analysed CAS and matched normal stroma isolated by laser-capture microdissection (LCM) by LC-MS/MS in a cohort of 14 Formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) canine mCAs that we had previously characterized using LCM-RNAseq. Our results reveal clear differences in protein abundance between CAS and normal stroma, which are characterised by changes in the extracellular matrix, the cytoskeleton, and cytokines such as TNF. While the proteomics-based analysis of LCM-FFPE tissue detects fewer targets than RNAseq, the protein and RNA levels show a decent degree of correlation, especially for the most deregulated targets. Moreover, the results from both approaches reveal a comparable picture with regards to pathway activation. Finally, we validate transcriptomic upregulation of LTBP2, IGFBP2, COL6A5, POSTN, FN1, COL4A1, COL12A1, PLOD2, COL4A2, and IGFBP7 in CAS on the protein level and demonstrate their adverse prognostic value for human breast cancer. Given the relevance of canine mCA as model for the human disease, our analysis substantiates these targets as disease-promoting stromal components with implications for breast cancer in both humans and dogs.

Project description:Aggregation of the RNA-binding protein TDP-43 is the key neuropathological feature of neurodegenerative diseases, including ALS and FTLD. TDP-43 is a ubiquitously expressed, nucleic acid-binding protein essential for human development. In physiological conditions, TDP-43 is predominantly nuclear, forms physiological oligomers and performs a wide variety of functions in the metabolism of RNA. However, whether oligomerization is required for TDP-43 functionality and whether oligomerization and RNA binding are intertwined, and if so how, remains poorly understood. To study this question, we generated three GFP-tagged human TDP-43 variants with either six point mutations that disrupt TDP-43 oligomerization (6M), five point mutations within the RNA-recognition motifs that disrupt RNA binding (RBDm) or both (6M&RBDm), and developed the corresponding four (TDP-43 WT and 3 mutants) isogenic HEK-293 cell lines expressing a single copy of GFP-TDP-43 under the control of a doxycycline-inducible promoter. Here, we induced the expression of all four TDP-43 constructs and studied the effects of the mild overexpression of the different TDP-43 variants on the human cell proteome.

Project description:The pollution of the environment with microplastics has been recognized as an emerging threat worldwide. Due to an exponential increase in production of plastic over the last eight decades and its longevity in the environment, accumulating amounts of microplastic are polluting rivers, lakes and the ocean. Their entry pathways are diverse and still only incompletely understood. Since microplastics are usually defined smaller than 5 mm, it can be ingested by a wide range of aquatic organisms including teleost fish. There are different approaches to study the detrimental effects of pollutants on aquatic organisms. On the one hand, generic baseline parameters such as growth and mortality are regularly considered, often accompanied by established stress parameters such as cortisol, heat shock proteins or lipid oxidation. The conflicting findings to date suggest that these parameters might not be sensitive enough to indicate the physiological effects of environmentally relevant microplastic concentrations. For this reason, more sophisticated biological approaches could provide new insights into whether and how microplastics harm fish. To date, proteomic approaches have been used only sporadically when investigating the effects of microplastic exposure on aquatic organisms. So far, this approach has not been used to address potential microplastic impacts in fish. In the present study, a proteomic approach was trialed alongside established methods in an investigation of fish experiencing long-term exposure to environmentally relevant concentrations of microplastics. Two groups of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss were exposed to microplastic concentrations and sizes currently encountered in wild fish and an increased concentration, expected to occur in the near future. These groups where compared to a control group maintained in MP free conditions. Five fish of each treatment were sampled at three time points (week 1, week 4, week 17). The experiments were performed in triplicates, resulting in 45 samples used in the proteomic analysis.

Project description:Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is responsible for porcine pleuropneumoniae, a severe respiratory disease that causes major global financial losses to the swine industry every year. Phase variation is the random switching of gene expression, either ON-OFF switching of expression, or the expression of multiple allelic protein variants. A number of bacteria encode cytoplasmic DNA methyltransferases that are phase-variable. This variable methyltransferase expression leads to global gene expression differences mediated by epigenetic mechanisms. These systems are called phasevarions (phase-variable regulons). In all described cases, phasevarions control expression of current and putative vaccine candidates, and influence phenotypes relevant to pathobiology. We have discovered two new phase-variable Type III DNA methyltransferases in A. pleuropneumoniae, which we named modP and modQ. Sequence analysis of multiple strains showed modP was present as four allelic variants, but just a single allelic variant of modQ was present. Phase-variable expression of modP (modP1 or modP2) and modQ leads to differential protein expression. This SWATH-MS dataset demonstrates the resulting changes to protein expression as a result of the of ModP1, ModP2 and ModQ phasevarions. This dataset represents triplicate repeats from strains which express either ModP or ModQ (ON) and strains which do not (OFF).

Project description:Membrane type I-matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP/Mmp14) is an unusual MMP because it is essential for survival in mice with multiple organ systems being affected for reasons that are unclear. Here, we show that the protein (MT1-MMP) and gene (Mmp14) are under strict circadian clock control and conditional knockout in fibroblasts leads to ~16% of the proteome losing or inverting circadian rhythmicity. The result is loss of the actin cytoskeleton and cell-matrix adhesions and major imbalance of the matrisome. Lack of collagen-I monomer turnover results in excess fibril formation in the absence of Mmp14. In the absence of Mmp14, paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 2 (Pitx2) is upregulated and remains in the nucleus where it drives Plod2 expression. The overall result is accumulation of collagen fibrils and elevated pyridinoline crosslinking that renders collagen fibrils insoluble. In conclusion, Mmp14 is a master regulator of circadian rhythms affecting the actin cytoskeleton and cell microenvironment.

Project description:P. syringae pv. phaseolicola, the causal agent of halo blight disease in bean, produces a toxin known as phaseolotoxin, whose synthesis involves the product of some of the genes found within the Pht region. This region, considered a pathogenicity island, comprises 23 genes arranged in five transcriptional units; two single-gene units (argK, phtL) and three arranged as operons (phtA, phtD, phtM), most with unknown function. In P. syringae pv. phaseolicola, maximal expression of most of the genes encoded in the Pht region and the synthesis of phaseolotoxin require the product of the phtL gene, which has been proposed to have a regulatory function. In order to evaluate the role of phtL gene in P. syringae pv. phaseolicola, we performed a comparative transcriptional analysis with the wild type and a phtL- mutant strains using microarrays. The microarray data analysis showed that PhtL regulates the expression not only of genes within the Pht region, but also alters the expression of genomic genes related with the iron-acquisition system, pathogenicity, oxidative stress and virulence. This study suggests the possible relation of the PhtL protein with the iron response genes and with the pathogenicity and or virulence of this bacterium. The microarrays used in this study correspond to an assembled DNA microarray of P. syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121 previously reported (GEO accession number GPL7115) (HernM-CM-!ndez-Morales et al., 2009). This microarray consist of 1911 probes, with an average length 2.4 Kbp, representing 1X the genome of P. syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121, as well as several PCR products corresponding to various known genes, which were printed as controls. Each microarray experiment was repeated six times (two technical replicates with the same RNA samples and three biological replicates using RNA isolated from a different culture). cDNA synthesis, labeling, hybridization, washing, and chip scanning were performed at the Microarray Core Facility at Cinvestav-Langebio. Hybridized microarray slides were scanned (GenePix 4000, Axon Instruments, Inc) at a 10 um resolution adjusting the laser and gain parameters to obtain similar levels of fluorescence intensity in both channels. The spot intensities were quantified using Axon GenePrix Pro 6.0 image analysis software. First, an automatic spot finding and quantification option of the software was used. Subsequently, all spots were inspected individually and in some cases, the spot diameters were corrected or the spots were removed from the analysis. The mean of the signals and the median of backgrounds were used for further analysis. Raw data were imported into the R.2.2.1 software. Background signals were subtracted using the Robust Multichip Analysis (RMA) whereas the normalization of the signal intensities within slides was carried out using M-bM-^@M-^\print-tip loessM-bM-^@M-^] method and the LIMMA package. Normalized data were log2 transformed and then fitted into mixed model ANOVAs using the Mixed procedure. The p-values of the phtL effects were adjusted for by the False Discovery Rate Method M-bM-^@M-^\FDRM-bM-^@M-^]. Changes in signal intensity of M-BM-11.5-fold or higher/lower between phtL- mutant and wild type were highly significant (FDR, p-value M-bM-^IM-$0.05), however we focused only in differential expressed genes that fell within the more traditional criteria, which is the cut-off threshold for up-regulated (M-bM-^IM-%1.8) and down-regulated genes (M-bM-^IM-$0.50).

Project description:Streptococcus suis is a significant cause of bacterial meningitis in humans, particularly in S.E. Asia, and is a leading cause of respiratory and invasive disease in pigs. Phase-variable DNA methyltransferases, associated with Restriction-Modification (R-M) systems, are a source of epigenetic gene regulation, controlling the expression of multiple genes throughout the genome. These systems are known as phasevarions (phase-variable regulons), and have been characterised in many host-adapted bacterial pathogens. We recently established the presence of a Type III DNA methyltransferase in S. suis (ModS), of which two alleles were described, ModS1 and ModS2. Strains which expressed either ModS1 or ModS2 exhibited differential methylation throughout the genome when compared with strains which did not. This altered methylation resulted in changes to gene expression and this SWATH-MS dataset demonstrates the resulting changes to protein expression as a result of the of ModS1 and ModS2. This dataset represents triplicate repeats from strains which express ModS (ON) and strains which do not (OFF).

Project description:Thermoacidophilic archaea are found in heavy metal-rich environments and, in some cases, these microorganisms are causative agents of metal mobilization through cellular processes related to their bioenergetics. Given the nature of their habitats, these microorganisms must deal with the potentially toxic effect of heavy metals. Here, we show that two thermoacidophilic Metallosphaera species with nearly identical (99.99%) genomes differed significantly in their sensitivity and reactivity to uranium. M. prunae, isolated from a smoldering heap on a uranium mine in Thuringen, Germany, could be viewed as a M-bM-^@M-^\spontaneous mutantM-bM-^@M-^] of M. sedula, an isolate from Pisciarelli solfatara near Naples, Italy. M. prunae tolerated U3O8 and U(VI) to a much greater extent than M. sedula. Within 15 minutes following exposure to M-bM-^@M-^\U(VI) shockM-bM-^@M-^], M. sedula, and not M. prunae, exhibited transcriptomic features associated with severe stress response. Furthermore, within 15 minutes post-U(VI) shock, M. prunae, and not M. sedula, showed evidence of substantial degradation of cellular RNA. This suggested that transcriptional and translational processes were aborted as a dynamic mechanism for resisting U toxicity; by 60 minutes post-U(VI) shock, RNA integrity in M. prunae recovered, and known modes for heavy metal resistance were activated. In addition, M. sedula rapidly oxidized solid U3O8 to soluble U(VI) for bioenergetic purposes, a chemolithoautotrophic feature not previously reported. M. prunae, however, did not solubilize solid U3O8 to any significant extent, thereby not exacerbating U(VI) toxicity. These results point to uranium extremophily as an adaptive, rather than intrinsic, feature for Metallosphaera species, driven by environmental factors. The study comprises 9 Samples, described in detail below. MprAU_MseAU: Transcriptional analysis of the response of Metallosphaera prunae (Mpr) and Metallosphaera sedula(Mse) to chemolithoautotrophic conditions (0.1 wt% Uranium octaoxide with CO2 supplementation in headspace). This experiment was done to identify the key terminal oxidases which responded to a Uranium oxide while doing inter-species comparison between Mpr and Mse. Transcriptional response of the terminal oxidase clusters proved that certain key genes play a role in the vastly different physiologies of these two species. MprN_MprU60: Transcriptional analysis of the response of Metallosphaera prunae (Mpr) to 60 min of Uranium shock. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Mpr cells challenged with 1 mM uranyl acetate shock (U shock) compared to normal growth. The Uranium cultures were harvested 60 min after the shock. MprN_MseN: Differential transcription of Metallosphaera species under normal growth conditions. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Mpr cells compared with Mse cells at mid log phase. MprN_MprU3h: Transcriptional response of Metallosphaera prunae (Mpr) to 3h of Uranium shock compared to normal growth. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Mpr cells challenged with 1 mM uranyl acetate shock (U shock) . The Uranium cultures were harvested 3 h after the shock. MseN_MseU15: Transcriptional response of Metallosphaera sedula (Mse) to 15 min of Uranium shock. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Mse cells challenged with 1 mM uranyl acetate shock (U shock) compared to normal growth. The Uranium cultures were harvested 15 min after the shock. MseN_MseU60: Transcriptional response of Metallosphaera sedula to 60 min of Uranium shock. Mse cells were grown upto mid log phase after which the cells were subjected to U shock and harvested 60 min later. Biological repeats were done for both experimental conditions. MseN_MseU3h: Transcriptional response of Metallosphaera sedula (Mse) to 3h of Uranium shock compared to normal growth. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Mse cells challenged with 1 mM uranyl acetate shock (U shock) . The Uranium cultures were harvested 3 h after the shock. MseU15_MseU60: Transcriptional response of Metallosphaera sedula to 15 min of Uranium shock compared with 60 min of Uranium shock. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Mse cells challenged with 1 mM uranyl acetate shock (U shock) . The Uranium cultures were harvested 15 min and 60 min after the shock. MprU3h_MseU3h: Differential transcription of Metallosphaera cells under Uranium shock. This experiment was done to analyze the differential transcription of Metallosphaera sedula (Mse) and Metallosphaera prunae (Mpr) challenged with 1 mM uranyl acetate.

Project description:P. syringae pv. phaseolicola is the causal agent of the halo blight disease of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L). The disease attacks both foliage and pods of plant host. Many genes involve in pathogenicity and virulence are induced only in plant or in the presence of host components. In this work we investigated the effect of bean pod extract on the transcriptomic profile of the bacterium, when grown at low temperature in minimal medium with or without bean pod extract. Two RNA samples were compared, one prepared from cells grown in minimal medium M9 and the other from cells grown in minimal medium supplemented with bean pod extract.To control de biological variation that might interfere with data interpretation, a minimum of three biological replicates and two technical replicates (swap) were prepared.

Project description:Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola is the causal agent of halo blight disease of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), which is characterized by water-soaked lesions surrounded by a chlorotic halo resulting from the action of a non-host-specific toxin known as phaseolotoxin, that inhibits the enzyme ornithine carbamoyltransferase involved in the arginine biosynthesis pathway. It was previously reported that genes within the Pht cluster were involved in the regulation and synthesis of phaseolotoxin. The GacS/GacA two component signal transduction system controls important pathogenicity and virulence mechanisms in several Gram-negative bacteria. In the present study we hybridized a genomic microarray of P. syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121 to compare transcriptional profiles from wild type strain and a gacA- null mutant with a Tox- 11 phenotype. Results show that GacA controls expression of genes within the Pht cluster as well as another group of clustered genes located in a 13 different region in the bacterial chromosome that contains at least one gene unambiguously shown to be directly involved in phaseolotoxin biosynthesis. Results suggest that this cluster is a new pathogenicity island containing genes whose regulation is also under GacA regulatory cascade and it will require further investigation to determine gene functions and their relationship to virulence mechanisms Transcriptional profiles of a P. syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121 null gacA mutant were compared to those of the wild-type strain. Cultures were grown in minimal medium at 18°C (which is the temperature at which phaseolotoxin is produced and the bacteria achieves full virulence) and harvested during the late log phase of the exponential growth. RNA from three biological replicates and each with two technical replicates were hybridize to control variation that might affect data interpretation.
