Project description:In this study, we examined alterations in microRNA (miRNA) profiles in peripheral blood from male medical students two months and two days before the National Examination for Medical Practitioners. Blood obtained one month after the examination were used as baseline controls. Several miRNAs were significantly elevated during the pre-examination period in association with significant down-regulation of their target mRNAs two days before the examination. Thus, a distinct group of miRNAs in periheral blood may participate in the integrated response to chronic academic stress in healthy young men Total RNA was prepared from venous blood which was taken from young male medical students. 12 samples from 4 subjects at three time points: two months before, two days before, and one month fater the examination were measured on array platform.

Project description:The respiratory tract is constantly exposed to the environment and displays a favorable niche for colonizing microorganisms. However, the effects of respiratory bacterial carriage on the immune system and its implications for secondary responses remain largely unclear. We have employed respiratory carriage with Bordetella bronchiseptica (Bb) as the underlying model to comprehensively address effects on subsequent immune responses. Persistent carriage was associated with the stimulation of Bordetella-specific CD4+, CD8+ and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T cell responses and broad transcriptional activation was observed in CD4+CD25+ T cells. Importantly, transfer of lymphocytes from persistent carriers to acutely B. bronchiseptica infected mice resulted in a significantly increased bacterial burden in the recipient’s upper respiratory tract. In contrast, we found that B. bronchiseptica carriage resulted in a significant benefit for the host in systemic infection with Listeria monocytogenes. At the same time, vaccination and influenza A virus infection were unaffected. These data demonstrate that there are significant immune modulatory processes triggered by persistent B. bronchiseptica carriage that differentially affect subsequent immune responses. Thereby our results demonstrate the complexity of immune regulation induced by persistent bacterial carriage in the respiratory tract that can be beneficial or detrimental to the host, depending on the pathogen and the considered compartment.

Project description:Secondary bacterial pneumonia following influenza infection is a significant cause of mortality worldwide. Upper respiratory tract pneumococcal carriage is important as both determinants of disease and population transmission. The immunological mechanisms that contain pneumococcal carriage are well-studied in mice but remain unclear in humans. Loss of this control of carriage following influenza infection is associated with secondary bacterial pneumonia during seasonal and pandemic outbreaks. We used a human type 6B pneumococcal challenge model to show that carriage acquisition induces early degranulation of resident neutrophils and recruitment of monocytes to the nose. Monocyte function associated with clearance of pneumococcal carriage. Prior nasal infection with live attenuated influenza virus induced inflammation, impaired innate function and altered genome-wide nasal gene responses to pneumococcal carriage. Levels of the cytokine IP-10 promoted by viral infection at the time of pneumococcal encounter was positively associated with bacterial density. These findings provide novel insights in nasal immunity to pneumococcus and viral-bacterial interactions during co-infection.

Project description:Plasmids are one of the important mobile genetic elements in bacterial evolution. In this study, to evaluate the generality of the impact of plasmid carriage on host cell between different plasmids, we compared the response of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 to harboring three natural plasmids; RP4 (IncP-1, multidrug resistance, 60,099-bp), pCAR1 (IncP-7, carbazole-degradative, 200,231-bp) and NAH7 (IncP-9, naphthalene-degradative, 82,232-bp). We prepared two sets of plasmid-harboring strains from independent conjugation events to elucidate the reproducibility of the impact of the plasmid carriage. As results, the fitness was reduced by the carriage of RP4 and pCAR1 in liquid medium, while it was unaffected or even improved for NAH7-harboring strains. RP4-harboring KT2440 formed smaller colonies than the plasmid-free strain on solid medium (1.6% agar). The host cells were elongated by the carriage of the all plasmids, respectively. Copy number determination by quantitative PCR showed that the amount of each plasmid DNA in the host cell did not differed drastically. Whole genome resequencing showed that 13 SNPs (RP4), 24 SNPs (pCAR1) and 5 SNPs (NAH7) were the total differences between the two substrains for each plasmid-harboring strains. Transcriptome analyses showed that the impact of plasmid carriage was constantly larger in RP4-harboring strain than the other two plasmid-harboring strains. Genes involved in metal acquisition and metabolism were commonly affected by the carriage of the three plasmid. Indeed, plasmid-harboring strains showed greater growth inhibition than plasmid-free strains under iron-limiting condition. This feature could become future target to control plasmid spreading.

Project description:Streptococcus equi subsp. equi (SEE) is a host-restricted bacterium that causes the common infectious upper respiratory disease known as strangles in horses. Perpetuation of SEE infection appears attributable to inapparent carrier horses because it does not persist long-term in the environment, infect other host mammals or vectors, and result in short-lived immunity. Whether pathogen factors enable SEE to remain in horses without causing clinical signs remains poorly understood. Thus, our objective was to use next-generation sequencing technologies to characterize the transcriptome of isolates of SEE from horses with acute clinical strangles and inapparent carrier horses to assess pathogen-associated changes that might reflect adaptions of SEE to the host contributing to inapparent carriage. RNA sequencing of SEE isolates from Pennsylvania demonstrated no genes that were differentially expressed between acute clinical and inapparent carrier isolates of SEE.

Project description:Impacts of plasmid carriage on its host cell were comprehensively analyzed using conjugative plasmid pCAR1 in the three different kinds of hosts, Pseudomonas putida KT2440, P. aeruginosa PAO1, and P. fluorescens Pf0-1. Various analyses of the host phenotype showed that pCAR1 carriage reduced host fitness, swimming motility, and resistances to osmotic- or pH-stress, and brought about the alterations of primary metabolic capacities in the TCA cycle or those several steps away from the TCA cycle in the host cells. Growth phase-dependent transcriptome analyses were performed with the classification of the annotated genes based on their identities among the three hosts and their putative functions. pCAR1 carriage affected host transcriptome more greatly at the transition and stationary phases in each host. The transcriptome responses were more similar between KT2440 and PAO1 than between other host combinations, and many genes, such as for ribosomal proteins, F-type ATPase, and RNAP core, in both strains were commonly not suppressed in their stationary phases. These responses may have resulted in the reduction of host fitness, motility, and stress resistances. Host-specific responses to plasmid carriage were transcriptional changes of genes on putative prophage or foreign DNA regions. The extent of the impacts in host phenotypes and transcriptomes was similarly the largest in KT2440 and the lowest in Pf0-1. The host alterations controlled by pCAR1 carriage are important for understanding the fate of the plasmid and its host, plasmid maintenance, expression of plasmid genes, the host cell physiology, and host survivability in the environment.
