Schistosoma mansoni smallRNA Seq and strand specific RNA seq

ABSTRACT: Blood flukes of the genus Schistosoma (Platyhelminthes, Trematoda, Digenea) are responsible for the chronic debilitating disease schistosomiasis / bilharzia, widely considered to be second only to malaria as a global health problem and an incalculable drain on the economic development of endemic countries. Since 1994, the World Health Organization has supported a genome initiative for Schistosoma, the Schistosoma Genome Network, aimed at identifying new targets for drug and vaccine development, understanding the molecular basis of parasite metabolism and development and determining biological variation. The study of small-RNAs as key players in the regulation of gene expression differentiation is important to the understanding of the parasites biology. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

Transcriptomics of the immune response to Schistosomiasis

Project description:This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/ Schistosomiasis is a severe debilitating illness that represents one of the most important parasitic diseases in tropical areas. It affects over 200 million people across 74 countries. The complete genome sequence of Schistosoma mansoni was published in 2009, but immune response against this parasite is not well characterized. This study is to investigate the overall immune response, antibody and TCR repertoire of immunologically nave mice, mice infected with S.mansoni and mice challenged with a secondary schistosome infection.RNA-seq data will be used to characterise the systemic immune response of mouse to Schistosoma infection, including both whole-transcriptome sequencing for a global picture of the immune response, and sequencing the lymphocyte antigen receptor genes to get a detailed picture of the adaptive immune response.

Schistosoma mansoni functional genomics histone modifications ChIP seq

Project description:Schistosoma mansoni is the causative agent of schistosomiasis, an endemic neglected tropical disease that affects the human population. Recently, newer versions of the genome and transcriptome have been published, with the Sanger Institute leading both the original publication of the genome as well as the further upgrade. However, little is known about the regulatory elements found in the genome, i.e. promoters. Identification of these elements is key for the understanding of mechanisms of regulation of gene expression in this parasitic helminth.

Alveolar Macrophage Phenotypes in Schistosoma-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension

Project description:Schistosomiasis, a prevalent cause of pulmonary hypertension (PH) globally, triggers type 2 inflammation. The role of alveolar macrophages (AMs) are not well defined. This study provides insights into the complex interplay of AMs subpopulations in Schistosoma-induced PH, shedding light on potential therapeutic targets for this global health concern.

Chronic clinical hepatic schistosomiasis japonica

Project description:We have performed a genome wide transcriptional survey of liver biopsies obtained from patients in Hunan China, who have chronic schistosomiasis with and without past viral hepatitis history, compared to patients with no liver disease history or indicators. These results present a comprehensive transcriptional profile of chronic schistosomiasis japonica patients and demonstrate similarities and differences with other hepatic diseases. These unique features of gene expression, in conjunction with previous reports of the cellular composition of granuloma formation and recovery, present an improved understanding of the molecular immunopathology and general physiological status underlying hepatic schistosomiasis. The gene expression profile of the human liver was examined for chronic patients with Schistosoma japonicum infections. Microarray analysis was performed on cRNA synthesised from total RNA derived from the liver biopsy tissue from huan China. Three groups were examined based on infections status [C] were without history or indicators of schistosomiasis or viral heapatitis controls ; [S] with a history or active for schistosomiasis but no indicators of viral heapatitis; and [S]

Quantitative label-free proteomic analysis of human urine to identify novel protein biomarkers for schistosomiasis

Project description:Background: Schistosomiasis is a chronic neglected tropical disease that is characterized by continued inflammatory challenges to the exposed population, and it has been established as a possible risk factor in the aetiology of bladder cancer. Improved diagnosis of schistosomiasis and its associated pathology is possible through mass spectrometry to identify biomarkers among the infected population, which will influence early detection of the disease and its subtle morbidity. Methodology: A high-throughput proteomic approach was used to analyse human urine samples for 49 volunteers from Eggua, a schistosomiasis endemic community in South-West, Nigeria. The individuals were previously screened for Schistosoma haematobium and structural bladder pathologies via microscopy and ultrasonography respectively. Samples were categorised into schistosomiasis, schistosomiasis with bladder pathology, bladder pathology, and a normal healthy control group. These samples were analysed to identify potential protein biomarkers. Results: A total of 1306 proteins and 8752 unique peptides were observed in this study (FDR = 0.01). Fifty-four human proteins were found to be potential biomarkers for schistosomiasis and bladder pathologies due to schistosomiasis by label-free quantitative comparison between groups. Thirty-six (36) parasite-derived potential biomarkers were also identified, which include some existing putative schistosomiasis biomarkers that have been previously reported. Some of these proteins include Elongation factor 1 alpha, phosphopyruvate hydratase, histone H4 and heat shock proteins (HSP 60, HSP 70). Conclusion: These findings provide an in-depth analysis of potential schistosoma and human host protein biomarkers for diagnosis of chronic schistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma haematobium and its pathogenesis.

Mouse Bladder LC-MS after bladder wall injection with Schistosoma haematobium eggs

Project description:Urogenital schistosomiasis (caused by Schistosoma haematobium) remains a major public health concern worldwide. In response to parasite egg deposition, the host bladder undergoes gross and molecular morphological changes relevant for disease manifestation. However, limited mechanistic studies to date imply that the molecular mechanisms underlying pathology have not been well-defined. We leveraged a mouse model of urogenital schistosomiasis to perform for the first time, proteome profiling of the early molecular events that occur in the bladder after exposure to S. haematobium eggs, and to elucidate the protein pathways involved in urogenital schistosomiasis-induced pathology. Purified S. haematobium eggs or control vehicle were microinjected into the bladder walls of mice. Mice were sacrificed seven days post-injection and bladder proteins isolated and processed for proteome profiling using mass spectrometry.

Schistosomula exposed to HDAC inhibitor (Trichostatin A) [48hrs]

Project description:HDACs inhibitors induces mortality in the parasite Schistosoma mansoni (schistosomula and adult worms), and became an interesting drug class for the development of new drugs to treat schistosomiasis. In order to understand the effect of histone hyperacetylation on the parasite, we tested the effect of the HDAC inhibitor Trichostatin A on schistosomula gene expression.
