Project description:Background: The Scylla paramamosain is a very important aquaculture crustacean species in the southeast coastal areas of China including Shantou. For the past few years, mud crab cultured in Niutianyang of Shantou suffered from serious diseases, especially the bacterial diseases (such as Vibrio parahaemolyticus). In eukaryotes, small RNAs can regulate gene expression in post-transcription to act on host-pathogen interaction system. Aims: V.parahaemolyticus isolated from Shantou Niutianyang crab culture area was injected to S.paramamosains to carry out an essential analysis on global miRNA expression in diverse tissues between two groups by the Illumina Solex deep sequencing technology. Methodology:To examine the relationship between mud crab miRNA expression and the bacterial pathogen, we collected mixed two pools of equal amounts of RNA from 7 different mud crab tissues (mesenteron, heart, liver, gill, brain, muscle and blood) and sequencing by Illumine/Solexa deep sequencing technology under normal conditions and during infection with V.parahaemolyticus. The high throughput sequencing resulted in 19,144,358 and 18,559,070 raw reads corresponding to 17,496,577 and 16,888,096 high-quality mappable reads for the normal and infected mixed pools, respectively. Stem-loop RT-qPCRs were used to confirm the microRNAs expression in different tissues of two pools. The results show that miRNAs might play a key role in regulating gene expression during mud crab S.paramamosain infection with V.parahaemolyticus. Conclusions: We identified a large number of miRNAs during the mud crab Scylla paramamosain infection with V.parahaemolyticus, some of which are differentially expressed between the treatments and the controls. The study provides an opportunity for further understanding of small RNA function in the regulation of molecular response and gives us clues for further studies of the mechanisms of V.parahaemolyticus infection in mud crab.

Project description:Dietary intake of fruits and vegetables (FV) has been inversely associated with lower risk of ulcerative colitis. A pig model was used to evaluate the impact of feeding FV on the host response to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis. Methods: Six-week-old pigs were fed a grower diet alone or supplemented with lyophilized FV equivalent to the half (half-FV) or full (full-FV) daily levels recommended for humans by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA). Pigs were fed a 1) grower diet alone (negative control), 2) grower diet and orally treated with 4% DSS for 10 days to induce colitis (positive control), 3) half-FV diet treated with 4% DSS or 4) full-FV diet treated with 4% DSS. Pigs were monitored for the development of clinical signs of colitis. Proximal colon (PC) contents and mucosa (PCM) were collected for gut metagenome, tissue transcriptome and histopathological analysis. Results: Pigs fed the full-FV diet did not exhibit diarrhea, showed less fecal occult blood (FOB), PCM crypt hyperplasia but with no differential expressed genes (DEG) or changes in PC microbiome diversity (p < 0.05). Pigs within the half-FV group exhibited increased group FOB and DEG associated with tissue remodeling, crypt and goblet cell hyperplasia in the PCM and no changes in PC microbiome diversity and two pigs exhibiting diarrhea (p < 0.05). Pigs within the DSS positive control group exhibited a reduced DEG involved with intestinal immune response and PC microbiome diversity with altered metagenome, increased group PCM erosion and FOB with persistent diarrhea in one pig (p < 0.05) Conclusions: Overall, our results showed that pigs fed a three-week full-FV supplemented diet, were resistant to DSS-induced colitis with a differential dose-dependent protective effect on host intestinal tissue and gut metagenome when exposed to an inflammatory challenge.

Project description:Purpose:The mud crab Scylla paramamosain is an economically important marine crab in China suffering from severe outbreaks of infectious disease caused by marine bacteria such as Vibrio Parahaemolyticus, resulting in great economic losses. However, the mechanisms involved in the immune response of this crab to bacterial infection are not fully understood. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the immune response to such pathogenic bacteria, we used high-throughput deep sequencing technology to investigate the transcriptome and comparative expression profiles of the mud crab S.paramamosain infected with V.parahaemolyticus. Methods: The hemocytes sampled at 0-24h after infection with V.parahaemolyticus were used for transcriptome analysis. The hemocytes sampled at 24 h after injections with V.parahaemolyticus and no injected 0h(as control) were used for gene expression profiling analysis. Results: A total of 52,934,042 reads were obtained and assembled into 186,193 contigs in transcriptional responses of the V.parahaemolyticus-infected mud crab. Via annotation to the NCBI database and the Swissprot database, we obtained 48,934 identified unigenes. In total, 10,139(20.7%) unigenes were classified into Gene Ontology, and 25,349 unigenes were found in 20 KEGG categories. These genes included representatives from almost all functional categories. By using Solexa/Illumina's DeepSAGE, 1213 differentially expressed genes (P value < 0.05) were detected in comparative analysis of the expression profiles between V.parahaemolyticus-infected crabs and control crabs, including 538 remarkably upregulated genes and 675 remarkably downregulated genes. Conclusions: Based on our results, we conclude that the inflammatory response may play an important role in the early stages of infection. The signaling cascades such as the chemokine, JAK-STAT, and MAPK pathways are regulated by V.parahaemolyticus infection. These results revealed changes of multiple signaling pathways involved in immunity during V.parahaemolyticus infection, which will facilitate our comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms involved in the immune response to bacterial infection in the mud crab.

Project description:Gut microbiome research is rapidly moving towards the functional characterization of the microbiota by means of shotgun meta-omics. Here, we selected a cohort of healthy subjects from an indigenous and monitored Sardinian population to analyze their gut microbiota using both shotgun metagenomics and shotgun metaproteomics. We found a considerable divergence between genetic potential and functional activity of the human healthy gut microbiota, in spite of a quite comparable taxonomic structure revealed by the two approaches. Investigation of inter-individual variability of taxonomic features revealed Bacteroides and Akkermansia as remarkably conserved and variable in abundance within the population, respectively. Firmicutes-driven butyrogenesis (mainly due to Faecalibacterium spp.) was shown to be the functional activity with the higher expression rate and the lower inter-individual variability in the study cohort, highlighting the key importance of the biosynthesis of this microbial by-product for the gut homeostasis. The taxon-specific contribution to functional activities and metabolic tasks was also examined, giving insights into the peculiar role of several gut microbiota members in carbohydrate metabolism (including polysaccharide degradation, glycan transport, glycolysis and short-chain fatty acid production). In conclusion, our results provide useful indications regarding the main functions actively exerted by the gut microbiota members of a healthy human cohort, and support metaproteomics as a valuable approach to investigate the functional role of the gut microbiota in health and disease.

Project description:We used the BDA DNBelabC4 platform to conduct single-cell RNA transcriptome sequencing on hemocytes before and after infection with WSSV, and to study the changes in hemocytes composition and antiviral mechanism of a crustacean virus infection represented by mud crab. The blood cells, or hemocytes, of the mud crab (Scylla paramamosain) play crucial roles in its innate immune system. These cells are involved in various immune responses, including phagocytosis, encapsulation, and the production of antimicrobial peptides. The hemocytes can be isolated and characterized using techniques such as flow cytometry, which helps in understanding their functions and interactions within the crab's immune system. White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) is a highly contagious and lethal virus that primarily infects crustaceans, particularly shrimp and crabs. It is an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus, typically oval-shaped, measuring about 320nm in length and 100nm in width, making it one of the largest known viruses. WSSV is the causative agent of White Spot Syndrome, a disease that has caused significant economic losses in the aquaculture industry.
