Comparative genomic hybridization of Schistosoma japonicum Chinese and Philippine isolates

ABSTRACT: Chinese and Philippine strains of the blood fluke Schistosoma japonicum present clear and distinctive phenotypes in areas of fecundity, pathology, drug sensitivity and immunology. Despite these differences large scale sequencing efforts have focused solely on Chinese mainland strain of the parasite. We have undertaken a comparative genomic hybridisation (CGH) approach to highlight some of the structural differences in the genome of two of the major geographical isolates of S. japonicum. We identified seven distinct regions of the S. japonicum genome that present differential CGH between Chinese and Philippine strains of the blood fluke Schistosoma japonicum, representing either deletion or duplication regions in the Philippine strain. Within these regions, genes that may be related to phenotypical differences are identified and discussed. Genomic DNA was isolated from adult (7 week post cercarial challenge) Schistosoma japonicum Chinese and Philippine isolates and separate maleand femalesamples comparatively hybridised on an Agilent customn designed oligo microarray.

Transcriptional Responses of Schistosoma japonicum Exposed in vivo to Sub-Lethal Dosages of Praziquantel

Project description:We have used a Schistosoma japonicum infected murine model with in vivo sub-lethal dosages of praziquantel against adult parasites. Differential gene expression of parasites was followed between 30 minutes and 24 hours post- drug administration, using a whole transcriptome microarray platform. Differential gene expression was considered separately between parasite gender. Total RNA was isolated from adult (7 week post cercarial challenge) Schistosoma japonicum male and females. Gene expression was determined through hybridisation on an Agilent custom designed oligo microarray.

MicroRNAs are involved in the regulation of ovary development in the pathogenic blood fluke Schistosoma japonicum

Project description:We report on the small RNA profiles of Schistosoma japonicum (S. japonicum) miRNAs using small RNA deep sequencing in the key stages of male-female pairing, gametogenesis, and egg production. Examination of different miRNAs between males and females in Schistosoma japonicum

Towards an understanding of the mechanism of hypoevolution of Schistosoma japonicum schistosomula from Microtus fortis

Project description:More than 40 species of mammal have been reported to be infected naturally with Schistosoma japonicum (Chinese mainland strain) in China. The reed vole, Microtus fortis, is the only known mammalian host in which the schistosomes are unable to mature and cause significant pathogenic changes. Gene expression profiling of the 10 day old schistosomula was performed. Microarray analysis was also used to identify differences in gene expression between Schistosoma japonicum schistosomula from BALB/c mice and from Microtus fortis. 10 day old schistosomula were isolated, total RNA obtained and Agilent one colour labeling used. A custom designed Agilent microarray was used to determine what differential gene expression occurs between parasites maintained in either a permissive (mouse) or non-permissive (vole) hosts.

LC/MS - Molecular characterization of S

Project description:Secreted extracellular vesicles play an important role in pathogen-host interactions. Increased knowledge of schistosome extracellular vesicles could provide insights into schistosome-host interactions and enable the development of novel intervention strategies to inhibit parasitic processes and lessen disease transmission. Here, we describe biochemical characterization of Schistosoma japonicum exosome-like vesicles (S. japonicum EVs).

S.japonicum Digital Gene Expression

Project description:Schistosoma japonicum is one of the remarkable platyhelminths that are endemic in the South Asian countries. The parasite is dioecious and can parasitize inside host blood stream for many years. Rapid reproduction by producing large number of eggs and count-react or active manipulating host anti-parasite responses are the strategies that benefit the long term parasitization of the parasite. Currently, Praziquantel is the only commercial drug that is effective against the worms but not the eggs of parasite in the host and no vaccine available to prevent human or animal schistosomiasis. Development of novel antiparasite reagents and immune-prevention measures rely on the deciphering of parasite biology. The decoding of the genomic sequence of the parasite has made it possible to dissect the biological functions of genes that govern the development of the parasite inside the hosts. In this study, the polyadenylated RNA from male and female S. japonicum was isolated and deep sequenced. By comparative analysis on the transcriptomic differences of the two sexes of the parasite, potential genes or gender-specific biological pathways can be targeted. Messenger RNA from male and female S. japonicum parasite was selectively purified from total RNA using oligo-(dT) conjugated magnetic beads. Complementary DNA (cDNA) was synthesized guided by oligo-(dT) as a primer.

Developmental gene expression profiles of the human pathogen Schistosoma japonicum

Project description:The life cycle of schistosomes is complex, being characterised by a series of distinct parasitic and free-living phases involving an invertebrate snail host, water and a mammalian host. A custom designed oligonucleotide microarray was utilized to profile developmental gene expression in the Asian blood fluke, Schistosoma japonicum during these parasitic and free-living transitions. Total RNAs were isolated from lung schistosomula, juvenile females and males (paired but little or no egg production), adult males and females (paired with full scale egg production), eggs, miracidia, sporocysts and cercariae. We focused on the three distinct environmental phases of the lifecycle - aquatic/snail (eggs, miracidia, sporocysts, cercariae), juvenile (lung schistosomula and paired pre-egg laying adults) and adult (paired males and females, both examined separately) stages.
