Project description:Coal is a major energy source that generates diverse environmental impacts through its production, primarily by the release of coal dust particles. An aqueous coal dust extract was obtained from a mineral sample taken from one of the largest coal mines in Colombia (La Loma, Cesar), trace elements by ICP/MS were measured, and its toxicity evaluated using the zebrafish (Danio rerio) vertebrate model. In this study, zebrafish embryos were exposed to different concentrations of aqueous coal extract (0, 0.1, 1, 10, 100 and 1000 parts per million (ppm; μg/mL) to establish acute toxicity, as well as morphological and transcriptome alterations. Trace elements within the coal extract yielding the highest concentrations included Sr, Zn, Ba, As, Cu, Se, Li, Ni, Sb, Rb, Co, and Cr. In addition, Cd and Pb were found in lower concentrations. No significant difference in mortality was observed with survival near 90% in all treatments. A significant decrease in rate of hatching was observed in the 0.1 and 1000 ppm treatment groups at 72 hpf. Furthermore, no significant differences in total body length, head length, or head diameter was observed in any of the treatment groups. Transcriptomic results of zebrafish larvae revealed alterations in 77, 61, and 1,376 genes in the 1, 10, and 100 ppm treatments, respectively. Gene ontology analysis revealed gene alterations associated with hematological system development and function, tissue morphology and development, connective tissue development and function, and embryonic development. Overall, these findings are the first to identify gene expression alterations in response to a developmental aqueous coal dust residue from coal mining.

Project description:We report the transcriptional changes associated with toxic effects of methanolic coal dust extract on normal zebrafish development. Early exposure of wild type embryos at 4 hpf to coal dust extract led to 3 groups of malformed phenotypes - tail deformity (P1), deformed yolk (P2) and smaller embryos with extruded yolks (P3). RNAseq of each phenotypic group revealed changes in genes involved in xenobiotic metabolism, intermediate filament composition, oxidation-reduction processes, calcium ion binding, focal adhesion and the ECM-receptor interaction pathway.

Project description:To effectively monitor microbial populations in acidic environments and bioleaching systems, a comprehensive 50-mer-based oligonucleotide microarray was developed based on most of the known genes associated with the acidophiles. This array contained 1,072 probes in which there were 571 related to 16S rRNA and 501 related to functional genes. Acid mine drainage (AMD) presents numerous problems to the aquatic life and surrounding ecosystems. However, little is known about the geographic distribution, diversity, composition, structure and function of AMD microbial communities. In this study, we analyzed the geographic distribution of AMD microbial communities from twenty sites using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of 16S rRNA genes, and the results showed that AMD microbial communities were geographically distributed and had high variations among different sites. Then an AMD-specific microarray was used to further analyze nine AMD microbial communities, and showed that those nine AMD microbial communities had high variations measured by the number of detected genes, overlapping genes between samples, unique genes, and diversity indices. Statistical analyses indicated that the concentrations of Fe, S, Ca, Mg, Zn, Cu and pH had strong impacts on both phylogenetic and functional diversity, composition, and structure of AMD microbial communities. This study provides insights into our understanding of the geographic distribution, diversity, composition, structure and functional potential of AMD microbial communities and key environmental factors shaping them. This study investigated the geographic distribution of Acid Mine Drainages microbial communities using a 16S rRNA gene-based RFLP method and the diversity, composition and structure of AMD microbial communities phylogenetically and functionally using an AMD-specific microarray which contained 1,072 probes ( 571 related to 16S rRNA and 501 related to functional genes). The functional genes in the microarray were involved in carbon metabolism (158), nitrogen metabolism (72), sulfur metabolism (39), iron metabolism (68), DNA replication and repair (97), metal-resistance (27), membrane-relate gene (16), transposon (13) and IST sequence (11).

Project description:The skin is the human body’s largest organ and is in contact with a diverse community of microorganisms that includes both resident and pathogenic bacteria. Skin immune defenses include the production of antimicrobial proteins that kill bacteria directly. However, we still have an incomplete understanding of how skin antimicrobial proteins promote homeostasis with resident bacterial communities and limit infection. Here, we show that resistin-like molecule α (RELMα) is an antibacterial protein that is produced by keratinocytes and sebocytes in the mouse skin. RELMα expression was induced in mouse skin by resident and pathogenic skin bacteria and was bactericidal for several bacterial species found on the skin, including Streptococcus pyogenes. Mice lacking RELMα had altered resident skin bacterial communities and were more susceptible to bacterial infection, indicating that RELMα controls bacterial colonization of the skin. RELMα expression required dietary vitamin A and could be induced by therapeutic retinoids that protected against bacterial infection in a RELMα-dependent manner. Resistin, another member of the RELM family, was expressed in human skin, required retinoids for expression, and killed skin bacteria, indicating a conserved function for RELM proteins in skin innate immunity. Our findings thus identify members of the RELM family as antibacterial proteins that provide vitamin A-dependent antimicrobial protection of the skin, and provide insight into why skin immunity requires adequate dietary vitamin A.

Project description:The diverse bacterial communities that colonize the gastrointestinal tract play an essential role in maintaining immune homeostasis through the production of critical metabolites such as short chain fatty acids (SCFA), and this can be disrupted by antibiotic use. However, few studies have addressed the effects of specific antibiotics longitudinally on the microbiome and immunity. We evaluated the effects of four specific antibiotics; enrofloxacin, cephalexin, paromomycin, and clindamycin; in healthy female rhesus macaques. All antibiotics disrupted the microbiome, including reduced abundances of fermentative bacteria and increased abundances of potentially pathogenic bacteria, including Enterobacteriaceae in stool, and decreased Helicobacteraceae in the colon. This was associated with decreased SCFAs, indicating altered bacterial metabolism. Importantly, antibiotic use also substantially altered local immune responses, including increased neutrophils and Th17 cells in the colon. Furthermore, we observed increased soluble-CD14 in plasma, indicating microbial translocation. These data provide a longitudinal evaluation of antibiotic-induced changes to the composition and function of colonic bacterial communities, associated with specific alterations in mucosal and systemic immunity.
