Project description:C. coli is the predominant Campylobacter strain that is found in pigs while C. jejuni if present will be 10- 100 folds less. Natural transformation can occur if there is a coexistence of both the strains in the intestine of pigs. Genome analyses were performed on a C. jejuni strain U101 isolated from the upper intestine and two C. coli strains, C101 and L101 isolated from caecum and lower intestine.

Project description:Gene expression profiling is an important tool in the development of medical countermeasures against chemical warfare agents (CWAs). Non-human primates (NHPs), specifically the rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta), the cynomologus macaque (Macaca fascicularis) and the African green monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops), are vital models in the development of CWA prophylactics, therapeutics, and diagnostics. However, gene expression profiling of these NHPs is complicated by the fact their genomes are not completely sequenced, and that no commercially available oligonucleotide microarrays (genechips) exist. We, therefore, sought to determine whether gene expression profiling of NHPs could be performed using human genechips. Whole blood RNA was isolated from each species and used to generate genechip probes. Hybridization of the NHP samples to human genechips (Affymetrix Human U133 Plus 2.0) resulted in comparable numbers of transcripts detected compared with human samples. Statistical analysis revealed intraspecies reproducibility of genechip quality control metrics; interspecies comparison between NHPs and humans showed little significant difference in the quality and reproducibility of data generated using human genechips. Expression profiles of each species were compared using principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical clustering to determine the similarity of the expression profiles within and across the species. The cynomologus group showed the least intraspecies variability, while the human group showed the greatest intraspecies variability. Intraspecies comparison of the expression profiles identified probesets that were reproducibly detected within each species. Each NHP species was found to be dissimilar to humans; the cynomologus group was the most dissimilar. Interspecies comparison of the expression profiles revealed probesets that were reproducibly detected in all species examined. These results show that human genechips can be used for expression profiling of NHP samples and provide a foundation for the development of tools for comparing human and NHP gene expression profiles.

Project description:In recent years, microbiome studies revealed that Candida species are common colonisers of the human skin. The distribution of species however varies greatly. Although C. parapsilosis is more likely to resemble skin commensals, opinions are divided, and discrepancies are present regarding C. albicans, that is also often associated with cutaneous candidiasis. Therefore, we aimed to thoroughly assess the nature of skin epithelial cell - Candida interactions. To study species-specific host reponses, we examined phagocytosis, cytokine and metabolic responses in different keratinocytes (HaCaT, HPV-KER) along with host cell damage following fungal stimuli. These results suggest that C. albicans triggers an enhanced antifungal response, thus does not closely resembe skin commensals, like C. parapsilosis. Furthermore, HPV-KER might serve as a more applicable tool for studying keratinocyte antifungal responses. To rigorously examine yeast-keratinocyte interactions, we applied two distinct isolates of both C. albicans (SC5314, WO-1) and C. parapsilosis (GA1, CLIB214). Comparison of the two fungi’s virulence revealed that while C. albicans effectively adheres to human keratinocytes and causes subsequent damage, C. parapsilosis is unable to establish lasting physical contact and causes less harm. In terms of keratinocyte response, both cell lines showed significantly enhanced cellular (% phagocytosis), humoral (IL-6, IL-8) and metabolic responses (2-ketoglutaric acid, citric acid, threorine, hypotaurine) to C. albicans strains, while those towards C. parapsilosis remained relatively low or similar to the control condition. Under certain conditions strain preference was also detected. Of the two cell lines, HPV-KER was more sensitive, as besides interspecies differences, intraspecies differences were also measurable.

Project description:Type III interferons (IFN-λ) are antiviral and immunomodulatory cytokines that have been best characterized in respiratory and gastrointestinal infections, but the effects of IFN-λ against skin infections have not been extensively investigated. We sought to define the skin-specific effects of IFN-λ against the highly prevalent human pathogen herpes simplex virus (HSV). We infected mice lacking the IFN-λ receptor (Ifnlr1-/-), both the IFN-λ and the IFN-αβ receptor (Ifnar1-/- Ifnlr1-/-), or IFN-λ cytokines (Ifnl2/3-/-) and found that IFN-λ restricts the severity of HSV-1 and HSV-2 skin lesions, independent of a direct effect on viral load. Using conditional knockout mice, we found that IFN-λ signaling in both keratinocytes and neutrophils was necessary to control HSV-1 skin lesion severity, and that IFN-λ signaling in keratinocytes suppressed CXCL9-mediated neutrophil recruitment to the skin. Furthermore, depleting neutrophils prevented the development of severe HSV-1 skin lesions in Ifnlr1-/- mice. Altogether, our results suggest that IFN-λ plays an immunomodulatory role in the skin that restricts neutrophil-mediated pathology during HSV infection, and suggest potential applications for IFN-λ in treating viral skin infections.
