Project description:We used phylogenetic low-density microarrays targeting the 16S rRNA gene to characterize the gingival flora of acute noma and acute necrotizing gingivitis lesions, and compared them to healthy control subjects of the same geographical and social background. Various types of samples were collected (column characteristics); patients from the same hospital without mouth infection (H), matched control populations (T), patients suffering gengivitis (Gengivitis), patient suffering NOMA (noma), patient suffering NOMA receiving antimicrobials (N-ATB). Sampled from patients were retrieved from both sides (column Description); healthy- or lesion-side of the mouth. All controls are matched with specific patients (see column patient category and number) We designed low-density 16S rDNA arrays representing 339 different phylotypes. We used an arbitrary cutoff of 1% of overall abundance to select from this dataset the most abundant sequences for probe design. Using this cutoff, the 132 most abundant 16S rRNA gene sequences were scanned for probes respecting defined physico-chemical properties (Tm = 65M-BM-15M-BM-0C; probe length = 23M-bM-^@M-^S50 nt; < -5.0 kcal/mol for hairpins; < -8.0 kcal/mol for self-dimers; and dinucleotide repeats shorter than 5 bp) using a commercial software (Array Designer TM 2.0 by Premier Biosoft). The 335 oligonucleotide probes were synthesized with a C6-linker with free primary amine (Sigma-Aldrich) and spotted on ArrayStrips microarrays (Clondiag GmbH, Jena, Germany).

Project description:16S rRNA sequencing of mice stools
Project description:We describe a custom probe design pipeline targeting the variable regions of bacterial 16S rRNA, compatible with the probe-based chemistry of the 10X Genomics Visium CytAssist platform, enabling spatially resolved bacterial profiling in FFPE tissue. Applied to a cohort of six FFPE colorectal cancer tumor and normal adjacent tissue specimens, we demonstrate the feasibility of a probe-based spatial metatranscriptomics for simultanous profiling of host gene expression and the intratumoral bacterial communities.
