Seafood project_Allergen exposure in shrimp industry

ABSTRACT: Shellfish processing workers are highly susceptible to respiratory illnesses such as allergies and asthma. However, the airborne biological exposures in this industry are not well characterized. This study aimed at identifying and quantifying airborne biological exposures in the shrimp processing industry and assessing their impact on human health. Our findings show that shrimp processing workers are exposed to several allergenic proteins and irritants. High levels of the major shrimp allergen tropomyosin were detected, with the cooking and peeling departments identified as high-exposure areas. Moreover, workers had a high prevalence of respiratory symptoms and elevated levels of selected biomarkers of asthma and allergy which correlated with the measured total airborne protein levels in their work environment. Our study provides important novel evidence showing the occupational burden of airborne biological exposures in the shrimp industry and identifying critical work task. Altogether, the results underscore the need for improved targeted protective measures.

Grass shrimp SAGE libraries

Project description:Adult male grass shrimp were exposed for 96 hours to LC50 concentrations of either Fipronil, Endosulfan, or Cadmium, as well as a Carrier Control exposure. RNA was extracted from whole-body homogenates using the RNABee kit. Tags were clustered to identify tags diagnostic of the different exposures. Keywords: SAGE, Grass shrimp, ecotoxicogenomics

Effect of diurnal oxygen variation on gene expression in Pacific white shrimp reared in green water system tanks

Project description:World aquaculture production of the Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) is estimated to account for 80% of the total shrimp produce worldwide. The global demand for shrimp has driven the industry to utilize and rely on semi-intensive and intensive shrimp systems. In the United States, Pacific white shrimp production can take place in semi-intensive earthen ponds, recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), biofloc technology and green water. In this study, the effects of lowering dissolved oxygen conditions in outdoor green water tanks on global gene expression is examined. Tissue samples from the gill and intestine were collected for gene expression analysis via RNA sequencing. Among all comparisons, RNA sequencing revealed the up-regulation of a single gene: hydroxyacid oxidase 1 gene. The HOA1 gene was found to be 7-fold higher in the intestine sample at the medium aeration level compare to that of the high (control) level. The HAO1 gene, also known as glycolate oxidase 1 (GOX1) is a gene related to the 2-hydroxyacid oxidase enzyme that is part of the oxidoreductase family and plays a role in glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism. The identification of a single differentially expressed gene across all analyzed samples suggests that Pacific white shrimp exposed to lowering dissolved oxygen set points does not induce global changes in gene expression at these levels.

Human Stress and Toxicity PathwayFinder PCR Array

Project description:Whole blood was collected for styrene-exposed and control workers subjects in a fiberglass boat industry. Total RNA was extracted from blood lymphocytes, and cDNA was synthesized for profiling on the Human Stress and Toxicity PathwayFinder(tm) RT2 Profiler(tm) PCR Expression Array (PAHS-003, SABiosciences).

Characteristic DNA methylation profiles in peripheral blood monocytes are associated with inflammatory phenotypes of asthma

Project description:Epigenetic changes including DNA methylation caused by environmental exposures may contribute to the heterogeneous inflammatory response in asthma. Here we investigate alterations in DNA methylation of purified blood monocytes that are associated with inflammatory phenotypes of asthma.

Nasal DNA methylation differentiates severe from non-severe asthma in African-American (AA) children

Project description:Background: Asthma is highly heterogeneous and severity evaluation is key to asthma management. DNA methylation (DNAm) contributes to asthma pathogenesis. This study aimed to identify nasal epithelial DNAm differences between severe and non-severe asthmatic children and evaluate the impact of environmental exposures. Methods: Thirty-three non-severe and 22 severe asthmatic African-American children were included in an epigenome-wide association study. Genome-wide nasal epithelial DNAm and gene expression were measured. CpG sites associated with asthma severity and environmental exposures and predictive of severe asthma were identified. DNAm was correlated with gene expression. Enrichment for transcription factor (TF) binding sites or histone modifications surrounding DNAm differences were determined. Results: We identified 816 differentially methylated CpG positions (DMPs) and 10 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) associated with asthma severity. Three DMPs exhibited discriminatory ability for severe asthma. Intriguingly, six DMPs were simultaneously associated with asthma, allergic asthma, total IgE, environmental IgE, and FeNO in an independent cohort of children. 27 DMPs were associated with traffic-related air pollution or secondhand smoke. DNAm at 22 DMPs were altered by diesel particles or allergen in human bronchial epithelial cells. DNAm levels at 39 DMPs were correlated with mRNA expression. Proximal to 816 DMPs, three histone marks and several TFs involved in asthma pathogenesis were enriched. Conclusions: Significant differences in nasal epithelial DNAm were observed between non-severe and severe asthma in African-American children, a subset of which may be useful to predict disease severity. These CpG sites are subject to the influences of environmental exposures and may regulate gene expression.

Endotype of Allergic Asthma with Airway Obstruction in Urban Children

Project description:In the first decade of life, high-asthma risk urban children develop stable phenotypes of respiratory health versus disease that link early life environmental exposures to childhood allergic sensitization and asthma. Moreover, unique patterns of nasal gene expression demonstrate how specific molecular pathways underlie distinct respiratory phenotypes, including allergic and non-allergic asthma.

Large-scale HDMSE mapping of the normal sputum proteome

Project description:Severe asthma is a collection of disease entities with varying pathophysiological characteristics that result in symptoms of cough, wheeze and breathlessness, with frequent exacerbations. To address the problem of phenotypic difference and heterogeneity, the Unbiased Biomarkers for the Prediction of Respiratory Disease Outcomes (U-BIOPRED) project was set up as a public-private partnership within the framework of the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI), engaging academia, the pharmaceutical industry and patient groups. The goal of this investigation was to identify proteomic fingerprints in induced sputum that characterize patients with severe asthma and to determine whether subgroups of severe asthmatics can be identified. Furthermore, we were interested in elucidating the biological pathways that showed differences between subgroups. This dataset is a description of the normal sputum proteome.
