Project description:The foraging gene in Drosophila, encoding PKG, is known for its importance as a natural variant affecting behavioral plasticity. Here, we demonstrate that it also affects metabolic plasticity: Rovers show a greater response to changes in their food environment than do sitters. Using metabolic profiling, we define foraging- and food-dependent changes in metabolites indicating that Rover store energy predominantly as lipids, whereas sitter variants store it as carbohydrates, Such changes are reflected in gene expression patterns, indicating an influence of foraging on regulators of insulin signaling. Combining for alleles with mutants of positive insulin signaling regulators makes Rover responses sitter-like, but does not change sitter responses. Collectively these findings suggest that the effect on metabolic plasticity of foraging works through the insulin signaling pathway.

Project description:Ascariasis (roundworm) is the most prevalent parasitic nematode infection worldwide, impacting approximately 500 million people predominantly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). While people of all ages are infected with Ascaris, infection intensity (defined by worm burden) paradoxically peaks in pre-school and school aged children but then declines with age. The cause of age-dependent Ascaris worm intensity is not well understood but may be dependent on cellular changes in mucosal barrier sites. We have previously found that the gastric mucosa is a critical barrier site for Ascaris infection. Following oral ingestion of Ascaris eggs, larvae use AMCase secreted by gastric chief cells and acid secreted by gastric parietal cells to hatch. Once hatched, larvae translocate across the gastric mucosa to initiate the larval migratory cycle. However, inducing mucosal injury with administration of Tamoxifen induces mucosa cellular changes that impairs Ascaris hatching and reduces larval translocation across the gastric mucosa. In this study we established a repeated Ascaris suum challenge mouse model and evaluated if repeated Ascaris challenge also lead to cellular changes in the gastric mucosal barrier. We found that repeated Ascaris challenge caused cellular changes in the gastric mucosa which reduced worm intensity in the liver independent of the adaptive immune response. Thus, in endemic regions, where individuals experience recurrent infection throughout their lives, gastric cellular changes may be a key mechanism leading to the observed age-dependent Ascaris worm intensity changes from childhood to adulthood.

Project description:The intestinal anaerobic bacterium Akkermansia muciniphila is specialized in the degradation of mucins, which are heavily O-glycosylated proteins that constitute the major components of the mucus lining the intestine. Despite that adhesion to mucins is considered critical for the persistence of A. muciniphila in the human intestinal tract, our knowledge of how this intestinal symbiont recognizes and binds to mucins is still limited. Here, we first show that the mucin-binding properties of A. muciniphila are independent of environmental oxygen concentrations and not abolished by pasteurization. We then dissected the mucin-binding properties of pasteurized A. muciniphila by use of a recently developed cell-based mucin array that enables display of the tandem repeats of human mucins with distinct O-glycan patterns and structures. We found that A. muciniphila recognizes the unsialylated LacNAc (Galβ1-4GlcNAc1-R) disaccharide selectively on core2 and core3 O-glycans. This disaccharide epitope is abundantly found on human colonic mucins capped by sialic acids, and we demonstrated that endogenous A. muciniphila neuraminidase activity can uncover the epitope and promote binding. In summary, our study provides insights into the mucin-binding properties important for colonization of a key mucin-foraging bacterium.

Project description:While growing in the human intestine, C. jejuni grows within the mucus layer. The largest constituents of this layer are the large mucin glycoproteins. A transcriptomic profile of C. jejuni NCTC11168 growing in a mucin-containing minimal medium seeks to describe the effect of the presence of mucin proteins on the transcriptome of C. jejuni. Microarray data was collected from three independent biological replicates and 9 technical replicates for each biological replicate.

Keywords: stress response, comparative genomic hybridization, genotype by environment Design: 3 genotypes x 2 treatments x 3 replicates. Treatments were leaving flies on lab food (control) or food-depriving them overnight with access to water. Three genotypes differed in foraging alleles: Rovers are homozygous for[R] (strain: BB), sitters homozygous for[s] (strain: ee, mutant sitters homozygous for[s2] (strain:s2) . Adult flies were 6-7 days post emergence. Three samples of equal numbers of male and females were collected per combination, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and heads were sieved for RNA extraction. This Gene by Environment design tests how presence or absence of food for a short period (overnight) affects gene expression in different foraging genotypes.
