The effect of blood on Fusobacterium nucleatum

ABSTRACT: Fusobacterium nucleatum is a Gram-negative oral bacterial species associated with periodontal disease progression. As periodontal disease progresses, it is known F. nucleatum coaggregated with blood is frequently detected in the gingival crevice. However, it is largely unknown whether these interactions between F. nucleatum and blood induce a particular genetic response. We tested the cultures of F. nucleatum ATCC 25586 with or without blood in a semi-defined growth medium by microarray analysis and found 14 genes that were affected after only about 4hr. of adhered blood. Then, we selected 7 genes that changed significantly and tested these genes via real-time RT-PCR to confirm the validity of the microarray results. As a result, one amino sugar-binding protein on the membrane of F. nucleatum was especially expressed high via both microarray and real-time RT-PCR. Based upon these data, it appears that the protein on the F. nucleatum membrane binds and transfers the amino sugar only under blood conditions. This study aims to determine the effect of blood on the gene expression profiling of F. nucreatum. The study contains 2 separate experiments that both measure the cultures without or with blood. The samples with blood contain 9% and 33% blood.

Characterization of the autoaggregation response of Fusobacterium nucleatum

Project description:Fusobacterium nucleatum is a Gram negative oral bacterial species associated with periodontal disease progression. This species is perhaps best known for its ability to adhere to a vast array of other bacteria and eukaryotic cells. Numerous studies of F. nucleatum have examined various coaggregation partners and inhibitors, but it is largely unknown whether these interactions induce a particular genetic response. We tested coaggregation between F. nucleatum ATCC strain 25586 and various species of Streptococcus in the presence of a semi-defined growth medium containing saliva. We found that this condition could support efficient coaggregation, but surprisingly also stimulated a similar degree of autoaggregation. We further characterized the autoaggregation response, since few reports have examined this in F. nucleatum. After screening several common coaggregation inhibitors, we identified L-lysine as a competitive inhibitor of autoaggregation. We performed a microarray analysis of the planktonic vs. autoaggregated cells and found nearly 100 genes that were affected after only about 60 min. of aggregation. We tested a subset of these genes via real-time RT-PCR and confirmed the validity of the microarray results. Some of these genes were also found to be inducible in cell pellets created by centrifugation. Based upon these data, it appears that autoaggregation activates a genetic program that may be utilized for growth in a high cell density environment, such as the oral biofilm. The study aims to determine the effect of autoaggregation upon the transcriptome. The study contains 2 separate experiments that both measure dispersed (i.e. non-aggregated) vs. aggregated cells and each experiment was performed in duplicate. Samples with no added components other than medium were dispersed, samples containing 25% saliva were aggregated, and samples containing 25% saliva + 50mM L-lysine remained dispersed.

Promoter methylome and integrative transcriptome profiling identify key epigenetics-regulated genes in human HCCs [methylation]

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common and lethal cancers worldwide and has a poor prognosis. Promoters represent an essential regulatory element of gene transcription in the human genome. In order to understand the promoter methylation in relation with gene transcription in HCCs, we applied a liquid hybridization capture-based bisulfite sequencing (LHC-BS) approach to examine the promoter methylome of HCCs, for which we customized 150,407 capture probes and enabled coverage of 91.8% of the RefSeq gene promoters within the human genome. We found the differential promoter DNA methylation between HCCs and peripheral normal tissues. Then we integrated promoter methylomic and transcriptomic profiling and described gene expression and regulation in HCCs. Lastly, we validated the key genes in a larger number of samples and screened candidate genes aberrantly regulated by DNA methylation in human HCCs. Capture-based whole genome promoter bisulfite-seq for 8 pairs of HCC tumor and non-tumor liver (NTL) samples.

Classification of cancer cell lines using a promoter-targeted liquid hybridization capture-based bisulfite sequencing approach

Project description:DNA methylation plays a significant role in assuring cell identity, thus potentiating its application in molecular classification of cancers in respect of tissue origins or clinically and aetiologically distinct subtypes. In this study, we adapted our liquid hybridization capture-based bisulfite sequencing approach on the targeted sequencing of promoter methylomes. We detected ten cell lines originated from different tissue origins and demonstrated a similar potentiality of promoter methylomes as classifiers for cancer cell lines from different tissue origins in comparison with gene expression profiles. Furthermore, promoter methylome can sensitively differentiate two different cell lines from the same tissue origin in respect of the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP), as in the case of AGS and BGC-823 gastric cancer cell lines. These results potentiate the targeted sequencing of promoter methylomes as a means for comprehensive screening and classifying cancer cells with respect to tissue-origins and CIMP subtypes in the future studies. We proved the potentiality of promoter-targeted LHC-BS that requires reduced experimental cost and less amount of initial DNA samples in comparison with a previous design [23] using YH cell line. In addition, we generated single-base promoter methylomes for ten cell lines, including eight cancer cell lines generated from four types of tissues and one pair of model cell lines for ovarian cancer (T29 and T29H).

HSF1 drives a transcriptional program distinct from heat shock to support highly malignant human cancers [gene expression]

Project description:Heat-Shock Factor 1 (HSF1), master regulator of the heat-shock response, facilitates malignant transformation, cancer cell survival and proliferation in model systems. The common assumption is that these effects are mediated through regulation of heat-shock protein (HSP) expression. However, the transcriptional network that HSF1 coordinates directly in malignancy and its relationship to the heat-shock response have never been defined. By comparing cells with high and low malignant potential alongside their non-transformed counterparts, we identify an HSF1-regulated transcriptional program specific to highly malignant cells and distinct from heat shock. Cancer-specific genes in this program support oncogenic processes: cell-cycle regulation, signaling, metabolism, adhesion and translation. HSP genes are integral to this program, however, even these genes are uniquely regulated in malignancy. This HSF1 cancer program is active in breast, colon and lung tumors isolated directly from human patients and is strongly associated with metastasis and death. Thus, HSF1 rewires the transcriptome in tumorigenesis, with prognostic and therapeutic implications. We used microarrays to examine affect of HSF1 depletion on gene expression in cancer cell lines. Three cancer cell lines (BPLER, HMLER & MCF7) were transduced with either control shRNAi (Scramble or GFP) or an shRNAi that targets and depletes HSF1 (hA6). Another BPLER sample was subjected to a 1H, 42M-KM-^Z C heat shock. Two biological replicates for all samples.

Tight coordination of protein translation and heat shock factor 1 activation supports the anabolic malignant state [Gene Expression Data]

Project description:A unifying characteristic of aggressive cancers is a profound anabolic shift in metabolism to enable sustained proliferation and biomass expansion. The ribosome is centrally situated to sense metabolic states but whether it impacts systems that promote cellular survival is unknown. Here, through integrated chemical-genetic analyses, we find that a dominant transcriptional effect of blocking protein translation in cancer cells is complete inactivation of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), a multifaceted transcriptional regulator of the heat-shock response and many other cellular processes essential for tumorigenesis. Translational flux through the ribosome reshapes the transcriptional landscape and links the fundamental anabolic processes of protein production and energy metabolism with HSF1 activity. Targeting this link deprives cancer cells of their energy and chaperone armamentarium thereby rendering the malignant phenotype unsustainable. Gene Expression Data We used microarrays to examine affect of rocaglates on gene expression in cancer cell lines. MCF7 breast cancer cells were treated with either 200 nM Rocaglamide A or DMSO, as a control. Two biological replicates for all samples.

Subtracted Diversity Array identifies novel molecular markers including retrotransposons for fingerprinting Echinacea species

Project description:Echinacea, native to the Canadian prairies and the prairie states of the United States, has a long tradition as a folk medicine for the Native Americans. Currently, Echinacea are among the top 10 selling herbal medicines in the U.S. and Europe, due to increasing popularity for the treatment of common cold and ability to stimulate the immune system. However, the genetic relationships within the species of this genus are unclear, which makes difficult the authentication of the species used for the medicinal industry. We report the construction of a novel Subtracted Diversity Array (SDA) for Echinacea species and demonstrate the potential of this array for isolating highly polymorphic sequences. In order to selectively isolate Echinacea-specific sequences, a Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) was performed between a pool of twenty-four Echinacea genotypes and a pool of other angiosperms and non-angiosperms. A total of 283 subtracted genomic DNA (gDNA) fragments were amplified and arrayed. Twenty-seven Echinacea genotypes, including four that were not used in the array construction, could be successfully discriminated. Interestingly, unknown samples of E. paradoxa and E. purpurea could be unambiguously identified from the cluster analysis. Furthermore, this Echinacea-specific SDA was also able to isolate highly polymorphic sequences. Five out of the eleven most discriminatory features matched to known retrotransposons.
