Project description:Candida albicans is exposed to a different host environment during oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) compared to hematogenously disseminated candidiasis. Thus, different virulence factors may be active during these two types of infection. However,little is known about the C. albicans genes that are required for the initiation and maintenance of OPC. To identify potential virulence factors relevant to this disease, we determined the transcriptional response of C. albicans to oral epithelial cells in vitro. Keywords: cell interaction

Thus, different virulence factors may be active during these two types of infection. However,little is known about the C. albicans genes that are required for the initiation and maintenance of OPC. To identify potential virulence factors relevant to this disease, we determined the transcriptional response of C. albicans to oral epithelial cells in vitro. Keywords: cell interaction Two different Candida albicans strains, CAI4-URA and a clinical isolate 7392, were used to identify the transcriptional response of C. albicans to oral epithelial cells. The strains were incubated with either the FaDu oral epithelial cell line or bare plastic for 45, 90, and 180 min. C. albicans RNA was extracted and the transcriptional profile of these organisms was analyzed using the C. albicans oligonucleotide microarray. The transcriptional response to Fadu cells was compared to that to bare plastic as a control condition. Each time point contains six biological replicates, three of which are from each C. albicans strain.

Project description:Candida albicans is the major invasive fungal pathogen of humans, causing diseases ranging from superficial mucosal infections to disseminated, systemic infections which are often life threatening. Hematogenously disseminated candidiasis (HDC) has a 47% mortality rate despite current antifungal therapy. An increase in prevalence, as well as an increasing resistance to most of the clinically important antifungal therapies, provides a strong impetus to understand the molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis and the acquisition of drug resistance. This information holds promise to identify novel therapeutic targets. A complete and accurate characterization of how the transcriptome of C. albicans responds to its interaction with cells from the host is an absolute necessity to accomplish this goal. RNA-seq (deep-sequencing of cDNA) provides an unbiased method to define comprehensively and systematically the transcriptome of an organism. We propose a comprehensive characterization of the C. albicans transcriptome in two different human tissue culture models, using RNA-seq. Such a characterization will shed unprecedented light on how fungal pathogens sense and respond to the host environment and how the host tissue responds to fungal invasion. We performed a comprehensive characterization of the C. albicans transcriptome in two different murine models of candidiasis (HDC and oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC)), and two different human tissue culture models, using RNA-seq. Because the two murine models accurately recapitulate the pathology that is observed in clinical cases of candidiasis, we are confident that gene expression levels will provide an accurate representation of what occurs during the course of an infection in humans. Such a characterization of the in vivo transcriptome will shed unprecedented light on how fungal pathogens sense and respond to the host environment and how the host tissue responds to fungal invasion. PRJNA211732 C. albicans strain SC5314 was used to infect mice in a murine model of systemic candidiasis as well as a murine model of oropharyngeal candidiasis. For the disseminated model, kidneys were harvested at 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours after infection. For the oropharyngeal model, tongues were harvest at 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, and 5 days after infection. Total RNA was extracted from all harvested tissues and subject to RNA-seq. We also tested 3 C. albicans mutants in the disseminated model. For the infections with the mutant strains, only 1 timepoint (24 hours post-infection) was analyzed.

Project description:Candida albicans, the causative agent of mucosal infections including oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) as well as bloodstream infections is becoming increasingly resistant to existing treatment options. In the absence of novel drug candidates, drug repurposing aimed at using existing drugs to treat off label diseases is a promising strategy. C. albicans requires environmental iron for survival and virulence while host nutritional immunity deploys iron-binding proteins to sequester iron and reduce fungal growth. Here we evaluated the role of iron-limitation using Deferasirox (an FDA approved iron chelator for treatment of patients with iron overload) during murine OPC; and assessed Deferasirox-treated C. albicans for its interaction with human oral epithelial (OE), neutrophils, and antimicrobial peptides. Therapeutic Deferasirox treatment significantly reduced salivary iron levels while a non-significant reduction in fungal burden was observed. Preventive treatment that allowed for two additional days of drug administration in our murine model, resulted in significant reduction of C. albicans colony forming units (CFU)/g of tongue tissue, a significant reduction in salivary iron levels, and significantly reduced neutrophil-mediated inflammation. C. albicans harvested from tongues of animals undergoing preventive treatment had differential expression of 106 genes, including those involved in iron metabolism, adhesion, and response to host innate immunity. Moreover, Deferasirox-treated C. albicans cells had two-fold reduction in survival in neutrophil phagosomes (with greater susceptibility to oxidative stress); and reduced adhesion and invasion of OE cells, in vitro. Thus Deferasirox treatment has the potential to alleviate OPC by affecting C. albicans gene expression and reducing virulence

PRJNA86065 Two different strains of C. albicans (SC5314 or WO-1) were used to infect two different types of human tissue culture monolayers (HUVECs or OKF6-TERT2). RNA from the infection mixtures were harvested at 90 minutes, 5 hours and 8 hours post infection. Experiments were performed in biological duplicate.

Project description:As an opportunistic fungal pathogen, Candida albicans is a major cause of superficial and systemic infections in immunocompromised patients. The increasing rate of azole resistance in C. albicans has brought further challenges to clinical therapy. In this study, we collect five isogenic C. albicans strains recovered over discrete intervals from an HIV-infected patient who suffered a two-year recurrent oropharyngeal candidiasis. Azole resistance was known from the clinical history to have developed gradually in this patient, and this was confirmed by MIC assay of each strain. Proteomic techniques can be used to investigate more comprehensively how resistance develops in pathogenic fungi over time. Our study is the first using tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling combined with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technology to investigate the acquired resistance mechanisms of serial C. albicans isolates at the proteomic level. A total of 4029 proteins have been identified, of which 3766 have been quantified. Compared with Ca1, bioinformatics analysis showed that differentially expressed proteins were mainly associated with the following aspects: down-regulation of glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, pyruvate metabolism, fatty acid degradation and oxidative stress response proteins in all four subsequent strains, but – remarkably – activation of amino acids metabolism in Ca8 and Ca14; increase in the protection against osmotic stress or excessive copper toxicity, up-regulation of respiratory chain activity, and suppression of iron transport in Ca17. By tracing proteomic alterations in this set of isogenic resistance isolates, we acquire mechanistic insight into the steps involved in the acquisition of azole resistance in C. albicans.
