Project description:In order to investigate the underlying mechanisms of PCB 153 mediated toxicity to Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), we analyzed the liver proteome of fish exposed to various doses of PCB 153 (0, 0.5, 2 and 8mg/kg body weight) for two weeks and examined the effects on expression of liver proteins using quantitative proteomics. Label-free mass spectrometry enabled quantification of 1272 proteins, and 78 were differentially regulated between PCB 153 treated samples and controls. Two proteins downregulated due to PCB 153 treatment, Glutathione S-transferase theta 1 (GSTT1) and sulfotransferase family protein 1 (ST2B1), were verified using selected reaction monitoring (SRM). Supported by bioinformatics analyses, we concluded that PCB 153 perturbs lipid metabolism in the Atlantic cod liver and that increased levels of lipogenic enzymes indicate increased synthesis of fatty acids and triglycerides.

Project description:Natural history museum specimens of historical honeybees have been successfully used to explore the genomic past of the honeybee, indicating fast and rapid changes between historical and modern specimens, possibly as a response to current challenges. In our study we explore a potential untapped archive from natural history collections - specimens of beeswax. We examine an Apis mellifera mellifera queen cell specimen from the 19th century. The intact and closed cell was analysed by X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) to reveal a perfectly preserved queen bee inside her cell. Subsequently, a micro-destructive approach was used to evaluate the possibility of protein extraction from the cell. Our results show that studies on specimens such as these provide valuable information about the past rearing of queens, their diet and development, which is relevant for understanding current honeybee behaviour. In addition we evaluate the feasibility of using historical beeswax as a biomolecular archive for ancient proteins to study honeybees.

Project description:Type I interferon is naturally produced in response to pathogens to generate an anti-viral state within the cell. There are 13 naturally occurring genetic isoforms of IFN alpha (IFNα) in humans that result in 12 IFNα subtypes (IFNα1 and α13 are identical but are coded by different genes). They all bind the same ubiquitously expressed receptor, interferon alpha receptor (IFNAR), but have been shown to differ in their biological and anti-viral activities (reviewed in Gibbert et al, Br J Pharmacol 2013). We investigated the ability of natural and recombinant IFNα to regulate mRNA expression. Here we present a dataset comprising whole genome microarray data from primary human monocyte-derived macrophages following treatment with different preparations of IFNα. These data are suitable for determination of IFN-stimulated genes, and additionally allow differential analysis of gene induction in response to natural versus recombinant IFNα. For example, this comparison may be useful in identifying cellular anti-viral effector proteins involved in viral restriction, thus potentially providing novel therapeutic approaches without the historical negative outcomes of IFNα therapy.

Project description:This study presents statistical analyses of gene expression in 5, 10 and 15 day post-fertilization (dpf) embryos of the teleost Fundulus heteroclitus treated with control vehicle (DMSO) or a potent non-ortho-PCB (PCB-126; 3,3’,4,4’,5-pentachlorobiphenyl). The embryos were from two populations: a clean, reference population (SC, Scorton Creek, MA USA) and a polluted Superfund population (N, New Bedford Harbor, MA USA). For each site, eggs from 8 females (~1100 total) were fertilized using minced testes from 5 males. After non-fertile eggs were culled, embryos were exposed to vehicle (DMSO; 0.1%) or PCB-126 (50 nM) in filtered seawater (salinity 25 part per thousand, 65 embros per 20 ml in glass petri dish) for 4 hr at 20º C. After exposure, the embryos were washed in filtered seawater and incubated at 20º C under a 14-h light, 10-h dark cycle. At 5-, 10-, and 15-dpf, embryos were collected as three pools of 20 embryos from each treatment group and flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80º C until used for RNA isolation.

Project description:Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) is one of the pig diseases with major economic impact worldwide. Clinical, pathologic and some immunologic aspects of this disease are well-known, but the molecular mechanisms underlying pathogenic mechanisms of the disease are still poorly understood. The objective of the present study was to investigate the global changes in gene expression in the mediastinal lymph nodes from pigs naturally affected by PMWS and healthy counterparts, using the Affymetrix Porcine Genechip®. This is the first study on gene expression in pigs naturally affected by PMWS. The present results allowed identifying potential mechanisms underlying the inflammation, lymphocyte depletion in lymphoid tissues and immune suppression, which are key features of PMWS. A total of twenty-five conventional 13 to 15-week-old pigs were used in this study. Animals were selected from three farms with historical records of PMWS and free of Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and Pseudorabies virus (PRV) infections. Twelve out of the 25 pigs fulfilled the PMWS diagnosis and were selected as cases, and the remaining thirteen pigs were selected as healthy control animals. At least one case and one control were used from each farm. 25 microarrays were used in the experiment, corresponding to the RNAs from mediastinal lymph nodes of 12 PMWS-affected pigs and 13 healthy controls.

Project description:Plants experience dynamic light daily, with light conditions varying on a second-by-second basis. Little is understood about the mechanisms that allow plants to survive such variable conditions. Here, we have exposed Arabidopsis thaliana plants to naturally fluctuating light regimes alongside traditional square light regimes. The response was highly consistent across experiments, leading us to believe there is an epigenetic mechanism involved. We show significant alterations in DNA methylation between fluctuating light acclimated plants, and square light acclimated plants, demonstrating the frequency of fluctuations impacts the plant methylation. This was accompanied by significant changes in gene expression, some of which correlated with altered DNA methylation. Interestingly, several transposable elements which displayed differential methylation were found to be differentially expressed between light regimes. This data suggests DNA methylation may have a role in acclimation to natural light which may directly regulate gene expression and impact transposable element activation.

Project description:Stochastic changes in cytosine methylation are a source of heritable epigenetic and phenotypic diversity in plants. Using the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, we derive robust estimates of the rate at which methylation is spontaneously gained (forward epimutation) or lost (backward epimutation) at individual cytosines and construct a comprehensive picture of the epimutation landscape in this species. We demonstrate that the dynamic interplay between forward and backward epimutations is modulated by genomic context and show that subtle contextual differences have profoundly shaped patterns of methylation diversity in A. thaliana natural populations over evolutionary timescales. Theoretical arguments indicate that the epimutation rates reported here are high enough to rapidly uncouple genetic from epigenetic variation, but low enough for new epialleles to sustain long-term selection responses. Our results provide new insights into methylome evolution and its population-level consequences. MethylC-seq of Arabidopsis thaliana
