Mosquito salivary apyrase regulates blood meal hemostasis and drives malaria parasite transmission

ABSTRACT: To identify the putative salivary tPA activator, we fractionated salivary proteins by size-exclusion chromatography and identified fraction Z8 as the strongest tPA activator, whereas the adjacent fractions Z7 and Z9 activated tPA at lower levels. Mass spectrometry analysis of these fractions identified a total of 152 unique proteins.

The evolution of hematophagy involves a series of adaptations that allow blood-feeding insects to access and consume blood efficiently while managing and circumventing the host's hemostatic and immune responses. Mosquito, and other insects, utilize salivary proteins to regulate these responses at the bite site during and after blood feeding. We investigated the function of Anopheles gambiae salivary apyrase (AgApyrase) in regulating hemostasis in the mosquito blood meal and in Plasmodium transmi ...[more]

RNA-seq analyses of gene expression changes in the salivary glands of Anopheles gambiae elicited by Plasmodium berghei infection

Project description:Salivary glands are the only mosquito tissue invaded by Plasmodium sporozoites being a key stage for the effective parasite transmission and maturation, making knowledge regarding Anopheles sialome highly relevant to understand this process. In this study, we report for the first time a transcriptomic analysis using RNA-seq of An. gambiae infected by P. berghei.

High-Resolution Proteomics Unveils Salivary Gland Disruption and Saliva-Hemolymph Protein Exchange in Plasmodium-Infected Mosquitoes

Project description:Plasmodium sporozoites, the stage that initiates a malaria infection, must invade the mosquito salivary glands before transmitting to a vertebrate host. However, the effects of sporozoite invasion on salivary gland physiology and saliva composition remain largely unexplored. We examined the impact of Plasmodium infection on Anopheles gambiae salivary glands using high-resolution proteomics, gene expression, and morphological analysis. The data revealed differential expression of various proteins, including the enrichment of humoral proteins in infected salivary glands originating from the hemolymph. These proteins diffused into the SGs due to structural damage caused by the sporozoites during invasion. Conversely, saliva proteins diffused out into the circulation of infected mosquitoes. Moreover, infection altered saliva protein composition, as shown by proteomes from saliva collected from mosquitoes infected by P. berghei or P. falciparum, revealing a significant reduction of immune proteins compared to uninfected mosquitoes. This reduction is likely due to the association of these proteins with the surface of sporozoites within the mosquito salivary secretory cavities. The saliva protein profiles from mosquitoes infected with both Plasmodium species were remarkably similar, suggesting a conserved interaction between sporozoites and salivary glands. Our results provide a foundation for understanding the molecular interactions between Plasmodium sporozoites and mosquito salivary glands.

A Water-Soluble Aggregation-Induced Emission Photosensitizer with Intrinsic Antibacterial Activity as an Antiplanktonic and Antibiofilm Therapeutic Agent

Project description:Photosensitizers (PS)s with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties have gained popularity in treating bacterial infections. However, most AIE PSs have poor water solubility and low selectivity, which greatly limit their applications in biological systems. Herein, we report a water-soluble and bacteria-targeting AIE PS, TPA-1, which showed minimum cytotoxicity towards human cells with and without light irradiation. Without light irradiation, TPA-1 acts as a narrow-spectrum antibacterial agent, eradicating planktonic S. aureus and inhibiting their biofilm formation. The mechanism study showed that TPA-1 targets S. aureus membrane, inhibits the supercoiling activity of S. aureus DNA gyrase, and causes downregulation of mulitple essential proteins. With light irradiation, TPA-1 showed excellent antiplanktonic and antibiofilm activities against S. aureus and P. aeruginosa by generating reactive oxygen species that cause membrane damage. Furthermore, TPA-1 under light irradiation can significantly reduce the number of viable bacteria in biofilms and promote wound healing in methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and P. aeruginosa-infected mice models

Anopheles stephensi salivary gland LC-MS/MS

Project description:Salivary gland proteins of Anopheles mosquitoes offer attractive targets to understand interactions with sporozoites, blood feeding behavior, homeostasis and immunological evaluation of malaria vectors and parasite interactions. To date limited studies have been carried out to elucidate salivary proteins of An. stephensi salivary glands. The aim of the present study was to provide detailed analytical attributives of functional salivary gland proteins of urban malaria vector An. stephensi. A proteomic approach combining one-dimensional electrophoresis (1DE), ion trap liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) and computational bioinformatic analysis was adopted to provide the first direct insight into identification and functional characterization of known salivary proteins and novel salivary proteins of An. stephensi. Computational studies by online servers namely, Mascot and OMSSA algorithms identified a total of 36 known salivary proteins and 123 novel proteins analysed by LC/MS/MS. This first report describes a baseline proteomic catalogue of 159 salivary proteins belonging to various categories of signal transduction, regulation of blood coagulation cascade, and various immune and energy pathways of An. stephensi sialo-transcriptome by mass spectrometry. Our results may serve as basis to provide a putative functional role of proteins into concept of blood feeding, biting behavior and other aspects of vector-parasite host interactions for parasite development in anopheline mosquitoes.

Project description:We characterize the epigenome of the human malaria vector Anopheles gambiae in midgut cells by mapping the distribution and levels of two post-translational histone modifications, H3K27ac and H3K27me3. These histone profiles were then correlated with levels of gene expression obtained by RNA-seq. ChIP-seq and RNA-seq were performed on adult female A. gambiae midguts. RNA-seq was performed on adult female A. gambiae salivary glands.

Genome response to tissue plasminogen activator in experimental ischemic stroke

Project description:To further delineate tPA functions in the blood, we examined the gene expression profiles induced by tPA in a rat model of ischemic stroke. Forty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to: 2 hours of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO); a permanent-MCAO; or were used as controls. tPA was administered to half of the rats in each group at 3hours. Whole blood was drawn at 24 hours, and isolated RNA levels measured on Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 GeneChip microarrays to examine the entire RNA transcriptome. 42 samples, 7 groups in total ( 2 treatmented disease, 2 untreated disease, and 3 control groups), each group had 6 replicates
