Project description:DNA based methods have been widely used to study the complexity of the rumen microbiota, and it is well known that the method of DNA extraction is a critical step in enabling accurate assessment of this complexity. Rumen fluid (RF) and fibrous content (FC) fractions differ substantially in terms of their physical nature and associated microorganisms. The aim of this study was therefore to assess the effect of four DNA extraction methods (RBB, PBB, FDSS, PQIAmini) differing in cell lysis and/or DNA recovery methods on the observed microbial diversity in RF and FC fractions using samples from four rumen cannulated dairy cows fed 100% grass silage (GS100), 67% GS and 33% maize silage (GS67MS33), 33% GS and 67% MS (GS33MS67), or 100% MS (MS100). An ANOVA statistical test was applied on DNA quality and yield measurements, and it was found that the DNA yield was significantly affected by extraction method (p < 0.001) and fraction (p < 0.001). The 260/280 ratio was not affected by extraction (p = 0.08) but was affected by fraction (p = 0.03). On the other hand, the 260/230 ratio was affected by extraction method (p < 0.001) but not affected by fraction (p = 0.8). However, all four extraction procedures yielded DNA suitable for further analysis of bacterial, archaeal and anaerobic fungal communities using quantitative PCR and pyrosequencing of relevant taxonomic markers. Redundancy analysis (RDA) of bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequence data at the family level showed that there was a significant effect of rumen fraction (p = 0.012), and that PBB (p = 0.012) and FDSS (p = 0.024) also significantly contributed to explaining the observed variation in bacterial community composition. Whilst the DNA extraction method affected the apparent bacterial community composition, no single extraction method could be concluded to be ineffective. No obvious effect of DNA extraction method on the anaerobic fungi or archaea was observed, although fraction effects were evident for both. In summary, the comprehensive assessment of observed communities of bacteria, archaea and anaerobic fungi described here provides insight into a rational basis for selecting an optimal methodology to obtain a representative picture of the rumen microbiota.

Project description:Correct chromosome segregation during cell division depends on proper connections between spindle microtubules and kinetochores. During prometaphase, kinetochores are temporarily covered with a dense protein meshwork known as the fibrous corona. Formed by oligomerization of ROD/ZW10/ZWILCH-SPINDLY (RZZ-S) complexes, the fibrous corona promotes spindle assembly, chromosome orientation and spindle checkpoint signaling. The molecular requirements for formation of the fibrous corona are not fully understood. Here we show that the fibrous corona depends on the mitotic kinesin CENP-E, and that poorly expanded fibrous coronas after CENP-E depletion are functionally compromised. This previously unrecognized role for CENP-E does not require its motor activity but instead is driven by its C-terminal microtubule-binding region and farnesyl modification thereof. The ‘birth’ of a farnesylation motif in CENP-E orthologs during Obazoa evolution closely aligns with presence of the full RZZ-S module, and we show that in cells CENP-E interacts with RZZ-S complexes in a farnesyl-dependent manner. CENP-E is recruited to kinetochores following RZZ-S, and - while not required for RZZ-S oligomerization per se - promotes subsequent fibrous corona expansion. Our results show that proper spindle assembly has a non-motor contribution from the kinesin CENP-E through stabilization of the fibrous corona meshwork during its formation.

Project description:Intraclonal subpopulations of circulating chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells with different proliferative histories and reciprocal surface expression of CXCR4 and CD5 have been observed in the peripheral blood of CLL patients and named proliferative (PF), intermediate (IF) and resting (RF) cellular fractions. Transcriptional differences between paired intraclonal fractions confirmed their proliferative experience and further supported a linear advancement from PF to RF in the peripheral blood. Marked expression differences in intraclonal fractions suggest potential pathological and therapeutic relevance of studying intraclonal CLL fractions as compared to bulk cells.

Project description:Aims: Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) accumulate in atherosclerotic plaques and exhibit remarkable phenotypic plasticity, contributing to both plaque growth and stability. The plaque-stabilising fibrous cap is rich in VSMC-derived cells, yet the cellular transitions and regulatory mechanisms governing fibrous cap formation remain unclear. We aimed to delineate the VSMC phenotypic transitions associated with this critical process. Methods and Results: Mapping of lineage-traced VSMCs during plaque development revealed investment of VSMCs prior to fibrous cap formation. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) profiles of lineage-traced VSMCs from atherosclerotic and acutely injured mouse arteries, we identified a disease-specific VSMC state co-expressing contractile genes with extracellular matrix (ECM) components (including fibrillar collagens and elastin) and NOTCH3, which are associated with fibrous cap formation. Computational trajectory analysis predicted that this proposed fibrous cap-related VSMC (fcVSMC) state arises from a previously described plastic, intermediate VSMC population expressing SCA1 and VCAM1. Clonal analysis further showed that NOTCH3+ fcVSMCs derive from intermediate VSMCs in both atherosclerosis and an acute vascular injury model, suggesting a conserved disease-relevant mechanism. The fcVSMCs were enriched in plaque fibrous caps compared to lesion cores, consistent with a role in fibrous cap formation. By combining scRNA-seq trajectory analysis and spatial transcriptomics of human atherosclerotic plaques, we identified protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR1) as a candidate regulator of fcVSMC generation. PAR1 was expressed by VSMCs in human plaque fibrous caps and, functionally, PAR1 activation by thrombin induced expression of contractile genes and ECM components associated with the fcVSMC state in cultured human VSMCs. Conclusions: Our findings identify a VSMC transition linked to fibrous cap formation in atherosclerosis and show this is modelled by vascular injury. We identify VSMC-expressed PAR1 as a potential therapeutic target for promoting plaque stability by driving the transition to the matrix-producing, fibrous cap-associated VSMC state.

Project description:Proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) is a severe vision-threatening disorder characterized by the formation of cicatricial fibrous membranes leading to traction retinal detachment. As the pathophysiology remains unclear, there has been no effective therapeutic approach to date other than vitreoretinal surgery. In order to identify genes associated with the pathogenesis of PVR, we performed gene expression analyses in fibrous membrane in patients with PVR using DNA microarray technology. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Kyushu University Hospital and Fukuoka University Chikushi Hospital, and the surgical specimens were handled in accordance with the ethical standards of the 1989 Declaration of Helsinki. All patients gave informed consent before inclusion in the study. Fibrousl membranes were surgically dissected from the retinal surface with horizontal scissors of patients with PVR undergoing pars plana vitrectomy. Total RNA were extracted from the fibrous membranes with three different PVR patients. RNA from human retina was obtained from Clontech (Palo Alto, CA).

Project description:Fibrous dysplasia (FD) and cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) are benign fibrous-osseous lesions of the maxillofacial bones that exhibit numerous similarities in their clinicopathological aspects. However, due to differences in their clinical evolution and treatment, it is essential to diagnose these diseases with accuracy. The differences in the pathogeneses of FD and COF are largely unknown and currently there is no biomarker available for their differential diagnosis. Nonetheless, there are few studies comparing these lesions and predominantly comprised of immunohistochemical investigations of traditional bone biomarkers. Therefore, the present study aimed to quantitatively compare the proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiles of cemento-ossifying fibroma and fibrous dysplasia to shed light onto the mechanisms involved in their molecular pathogenesis and identify potential differential diagnosis biomarkers.
