Project description:Use of MePS2-modified siRNAs to target GRAM Domain Containing 1B (GRAMD1B), a novel protein in taxane resistance. Two groups of samples are included: 1. siControl treated HeyA8-MDR and 2. siGRAMD1B treated HeyA8-MDR. Gene expression profiles of siGRAMD1B-HeyA8-MDR cells were compared to that of siControl-HeyA8MDR cells.
Project description:<p>Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in resisting the invasion of pathogens, particularly multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, which pose a significant threat to public health. While exercise offers numerous health benefits, its impact on host colonization resistance remains largely unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that moderate exercise significantly reduces gut colonization by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a clinically important MDR pathogen. Moreover, we identify an understudied strain of the intestinal probiotic Dubosiella newyorkensis (L8) as a critical factor in mediating exercise-induced colonization resistance against MRSA. Mechanistically, L8 enhances the deprivation of fucose, a crucial carbon source essential for MRSA growth and pathogenicity. This process relies on the high binding affinity of pyruvate to the ILE257 site of the lactate dehydrogenase in L8. Overall, our work highlights the importance of moderate exercise in maintaining host colonization resistance and demonstrates the probiotic of L8 as a probiotic in protecting against MRSA colonization.</p>

Project description:Here, we report analysis of both the bacterial and host transcriptome as affected by colonization of R. hominis in the mouse gut. Microbial genes required for colonization and adaptation in the murine gut, as well as host genes responding to colonization by this bacterial species, were uncovered.
