Project description:Background: Microorganisms are the major cause of food spoilage during storage, processing and distribution. Pseudomonas fluorescens is a typical spoilage bacterium that contributes to a large extent to the spoilage process of proteinaceous food. RpoS is considered an important global regulator involved in stress survival and virulence in many pathogens. Our previous work revealed that RpoS contributed to the spoilage activities of P. fluorescens by regulating resistance to different stress conditions, extracellular acylated homoserine lactone (AHL) levels, extracellular protease and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) production. However, RpoS-dependent genes in P. fluorescens remained undefined. Results: RNA-seq transcriptomics analysis combined with quantitative proteomics analysis basing on multiplexed isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling was performed for the P. fluorescens wild-type strain UK4 and its derivative carrying a rpoS mutation. A total of 375 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 212 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in these two backgrounds. The DGEs were further verified by qRT-PCR tests, and the genes directly regulated by RpoS were confirmed by 5’-RACE-PCR sequencing. The combining transcriptome and proteome analysis revealed a role of this regulator in several cellular processes, including polysaccharide metabolism, intracellular secretion and extracellular structures, cell well biogenesis, stress responses, ammonia and biogenic amine production, which may contribute to biofilm formation, stress resistance and spoilage activities of P. fluorescens. Moreover, in this work we indeed observed that RpoS contributed to the production of the macrocolony biofilm’s matrix.

Project description:This study aims to assess whether genes involved in central metabolism induced by Sulforaphane, SF, are mediated through the transcription factor NRF2. A time course RNA-seq experiment was performed, where RNA is extracted after 3, 9, and 24 hours SF treatment. This experiment tests the following hypotheses: 1) The transcriptional changes induced by SF at early time points will affect genes involved in the antioxidant response machinery of the cell. 2) The transcriptional changes induced by SF at 24 h will affect genes involved in central metabolism. This is a follow up from a previous study of the effect of SF on HepG2 cells under different glucose environment (see E-MTAB-12851).

Project description:Autotaxin (ATX), encoded by ENPP2, catalyzes the production of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), an important regulator within the tumor microenvironment (TME). ATX is a clinical target in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), yet the pro-tumorigenic action of the ATX/LPA axis in PDAC remains unclear. PDAC is characterized by a highly fibrotic tumor microenvironment (TME) due to an abundance of cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs), acting as a barrier to therapy and contributing to the poor survival of PDAC patients. The mechanism by which ATX inhibition influences CAFs and their secretome is still not fully characterized. To identified potential downstream mediators of ATX signaling, we performed RNA-seq of pancreatic CAF-derived cell line 0082T treated with Autotaxin inhibitors, IOA-289 and PF-8380. PF-8380 treatment resulted in a higher number of differentially expressed genes compared to IOA-289 treatment. IOA-289 treatment resulted in only four significantly differentially expressed genes (CTGF, PLIN2, HHIP, and AHNAK). However, only PLIN2, which was upregulated and CTGF, which was downregulated, overlapped between the two ATX inhibitors. As CTGF (connective tissue growth factor) is a pro-fibrotic and pro-tumorigenic factor, it suggests a key role for CAF-derived ATX in promoting autocrine and paracrine pro-tumorigenic signaling in PDAC.

Project description:Immune response genes are disproportionately polymorphic in humans and mice, with heterogeneity amongst loci driving strain specific host defense responses. The inadvertent retention of polymorphic loci can confound results, lead to false conclusions, and delay scientific progress. By combining RNAseq and variant calling analyses, we identify a substantial region of 129S genome, including the highly polymorphic Nlrp1 locus proximal to Nlrp3, in one of the most commonly used mouse models of NLRP3 deficiency. We show that 129S NLRP1 can be tolerated at higher expression levels at steady-state, however this sensitizes Nlrp3-/- mice to NLRP1 inflammasome activation. Furthermore, the presence of 129S genome leads to altered gene and protein regulation across multiple cell-types, including of the key tissue-resident macrophage marker, TIM4. In order to resolve NLRP3 dependent phenotypes we validate a conditional Nlrp3 allele enabling temporal and cell-type specific control of NLRP3 deletion. Our study provides an accessible strategy to identify functionally relevant SNPs and assess genomic contamination in transgenic mice, to allow for unambiguous attribution of phenotypes to the target gene.

Project description:In a previous study, we found that H2S alleviates salinity stress in cucumber by maintaining the Na+/K+ balance and by regulating H2S metabolism and the oxidative stress response. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms behind H2S-regulated salt-stress tolerance in cucumber. Here, an integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis based on RNA-seq and 2-DE was used to investigate the global mechanism underlying H2S-regulated salt-stress tolerance. In total, 11 761 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 61 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified. Analysis of the pathways associated with the DEGs showed that salt stress enriched expression of genes in primary and energy metabolism, such as photosynthesis, carbon metabolism and biosynthesis of amino acids. Application of H2S significantly decreased these DEGs but enriched DEGs related to plant-pathogen interaction, sulfur-containing metabolism, cell defense and signal transduction pathways. Notably, changes related to sulfur-containing metabolism and cell defense were also observed through proteome analysis, such as Cysteine synthase 1, Glutathione S-transferase U25-like, Protein disulfide-isomerase and Peroxidase 2. We present the first global analysis of the mechanism underlying H2S regulation of salt-stress tolerance in cucumber through tracking changes in the expression of specific proteins and genes.

Project description:The aim of this study was to examine the transcriptional changes that govern low nitrogen (N) and low phosphorus (P) responses in basal nodes and may be associated with tiller suppression under nutrient-limiting conditions. For this purpose, RNA-seq was conducted in 18 days-old hydroponically grown wheat plants 8 days after the introduction of the plants to the nutrient limitation. The three different treatments were: Control (10 mM N, 1 mM P), Low N (0.1 mM N, 1 mM P) and Low P (10 mM N, 0.01 mM P). In total, four biological replicates were included per treatment. RNA-seq was conducted in total RNA extracted from 6 basal node samples pooled together per biological replicate. In this study, the basal node is defined as the 0.5 cm of the main shoot base, which includes the apical meristem, lateral buds, leaf meristems etc.

Project description:We generated C57BL/6 mice lacking Bmp10 and/or Bmp9 utilizing the Cre-loxP system. Briefly, Bmp9 constitutive deletion resulted from the replacement of exon 2 by a neomycin resistance cassette. Because Bmp10 deletion leads to early embryonic lethality, we used the tamoxifen-inducible Cre system to generate Bmp10-cKO mice (Rosa26-CreERT2;Bmp10lox/lox) by crossing Rosa26-CreERT2 mice with Bmp10lox/lox mice that possess loxP sites flanking exon 2. To generate double-KO (DKO) mice, we crossed these Rosa26-CreERT2;Bmp10lox/lox mice with Bmp9-KO mice. At the age of 8 weeks, mice were treated with tamoxifen (Sigma) by intraperitoneal injection once a day for 5 days at a dosage of 50 mg/kg. At the age of 5 months, Wild Type and DKO mouse lung tissue was flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C. RNA extraction, RNA sample quality assessment, RNA library preparation, sequencing and raw data analysis were conducted at GENEWIZ, Inc. (South Plainfield, NJ, USA). Total RNA was extracted from frozen tissue using the Qiagen RNeasy Plus Mini kit. RNA samples were quantified using Qubit 2.0 Fluorometer (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and RNA integrity was checked with Agilent TapeStation (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA). rRNA depletion was performed using Ribozero rRNA Removal Kit (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). RNA sequencing library preparation used NEBNext Ultra RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina by following the manufacturer’s recommendations (NEB, Ipswich, MA, USA). Briefly, enriched RNAs were fragmented for 15 minutes at 94 °C. First strand and second strand cDNA were subsequently synthesized. cDNA fragments were end repaired and adenylated at 3’ends, and universal adapter was ligated to cDNA fragments, followed by index addition and library enrichment with limited cycle PCR. Sequencing libraries were validated using the Agilent Tapestation 4200 (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA), and quantified by using Qubit 2.0 Fluorometer (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) as well as by quantitative PCR (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA, USA). The sequencing libraries were clustered on one lane of a flowcell. After clustering, the flowcell was loaded on the Illumina HiSeq 4000 instrument (or equivalent) according to manufacturer’s instructions. The samples were sequenced using a 2x150 Paired End (PE) configuration. Image analysis and base calling were conducted by the HiSeq Control Software (HCS). Raw sequence data (.bcl files) generated from Illumina HiSeq was converted into fastq files and de-multiplexed using Illumina's bcl2fastq 2.17 software. One mis-match was allowed for index sequence identification. After investigating the quality of the raw data, sequence reads were trimmed to remove possible adapter sequences and nucleotides with poor quality using Trimmomatic v.0.36. The trimmed reads were mapped to the the Mus musculus GRCm38 reference genome available on ENSEMBL using the STAR aligner v.2.5.2b. Gene counts were calculated from uniquely mapped reads using feature Counts from the Subread package v.1.5.2. Only unique reads that fell within exon regions were counted. The gene hit counts table was then used for downstream differential expression analysis. A differential gene expression analysis between WT and DKO groups of samples was performed using the R-package DESeq2 (Wald test).

Project description:Emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs), including the globally successful Alpha (B.1.1.7) variant, suggests viral adaptation to enhance human-to-human transmission. Although much effort has focused on characterisation of spike changes, Alpha mutations outside spike likely contribute to adaptation. Here we used RNAseq as well as viral replication assays to show that Alpha isolates more effectively suppress innate immune responses (ISGs as assessed by RNA) in airway epithelial cells, compared to first wave isolates. We found that Alpha has dramatically increased subgenomic RNA and protein levels of N, Orf9b and Orf6, all known innate immune antagonists.

Project description:The aim of this study was to examine the transcriptional changes that govern the primary nitrogen (N) limitation response in roots and the long-term effect of N limitation in the basal nodes, which may be associated with tiller suppression by N supply. The effect of biostimulant application on N limitation response was also examined by including plant treated and untreated with microalgae extract-based biostimulant. For this purpose, RNA-seq was conducted in roots of 15 days-old hydroponically grown wheat plants (treated and untreated with biostimulants) 24 h after the introduction of the plants to the N limitation and in basal nodes of 32 days-old wheat plants (treated and untreated with biostimulants) exposed to N limitation for 18 days. The two different N treatments were: High N (10 mM N) and Low N (0.1 mM N). In total, three biological replicates were included per treatment. RNA-seq was conducted in total RNA extracted from 3 basal node samples pooled together per biological replicate. In this study, the basal node is defined as the 0.5 cm of the main shoot base, which includes the apical meristem, lateral buds, leaf meristems etc.
