Rat infection with Trypanosoma rhodesiense clinical isolates

ABSTRACT: Rats (four per isolate) were infected with Trypansooma rhodesiense taken from the CNS of two different patients from Lwala. Blood was taken at parasitaemias ranging from 3-20 E7. The results can be compared with those from human patient samples.

The Trypanosoma brucei MISP family of invariant proteins are co-expressed with BARP as triple helical bundle structures on the surface of salivary gland forms, but is dispensable for parasite development within the tsetse vector

Project description:Trypanosoma brucei spp. develop into mammalian-infectious metacyclic trypomastigotes inside tsetse salivary glands. Besides acquiring a variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) coat, little is known about the metacyclic expression of invariant surface antigens. Proteomics analyses of saliva from T. brucei-infected flies identified, in addition to VSG and Brucei Alanine-Rich Protein (BARP) peptides, a family of GPIanchored surface proteins herein named Metacyclic Invariant Surface Proteins (MISP). The MISP family is encoded by five paralog genes with >80% protein identity, which are exclusively expressed by salivary gland stages of the parasite and peak in metacyclic stage, as shown by confocal microscopy and immuno-high resolution scanning electron microscopy. Crystallographic analysis of a MISP isoform (MISP360) and a high confidence model of BARP revealed a triple helical bundle architecture commonly found in other trypanosome surface proteins. Molecular modelling combined with live fluorescent microscopy suggests that MISP N-termini are extended above the VSG coat. However, vaccination with recombinant MISP360 isoform did not protect mice against a T. brucei infectious tsetse bite. Lastly, both RNAi knock down and CRISPR-Cas9-driven knock out of all MISP paralogues suggest they are not essential for parasite development in the tsetse vector. We speculate that MISP may be relevant during trypanosome inoculation or establishment in the vertebrate’s skin.

RNA-seq of blood and adipose tissue from mice infected with Trypanosoma brucei

Project description:We asked whether the in-vivo transcriptome of T. brucei AnTat 1.1E 90-13 parasites collected from adipose tissue and blood is different. We collected gonadal adipose tissue of infected mice on day 6 post-infection, when a high number of parasites is expected, and blood on day 4 post-infection when slender-forms are the most abundant form of the parasite. Parasites from blood were purified over a DEAE column. Total RNA was extracted from two independent samples of blood and three independent samples of fat and subjected to RNA-sequencing.

Expression of Sodalis glossinidius genes derived from self-cleared and control Glossina palpalis gambiensis flies

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of Sodalis glossinidius derived from uninfected (controls) and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense infection self cleared Glossina palpalis gambiensis. 10 days after infectived blood meal, flies anal drop were analysed by PCR to isolate the infected self cleared flies. Then, uninfected (controls) and infection self cleared 10 days-flies midgut were dissected for RNA extraction. Total RNAs were extracted from 8 samples including: 4 control and 4 infection self-cleared flies.

Expression of Sodalis glossinidius genes derived from self-cleared and infected Glossina palpalis gambiensis flies

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of Sodalis glossinidius derived from Trypanosoma brucei gambiense infection self cleared and infected Glossina palpalis gambiensis. At 3 time points (3, 10 and 20 days) after infectived blood meal, flies were analysed by PCR to isolate the infected and infection self cleared flies. Then, infected and infection self cleared flies midgut were dissected for RNA extraction. Total RNAs were extracted at 3 time points (3, 10 and 20 days) from 24 samples including, for each time, 4 infected and 4 infection self-cleared flies.

Genomic and Proteomic Studies on the Mode of Action of Oxaboroles against the African Trypanosome

Project description:SCYX-7158, an oxaborole, is currently in Phase I clinical trials for the treatment of human African trypanosomiasis. Here we investigate possible modes of action against Trypanosoma brucei using a chemo-proteomic approach. SILAC-based proteomic studies using an oxaborole analogue immobilised onto a resin was used either in competition with a soluble oxaborole or an immobilised inactive control to identify thirteen proteins common to both strategies. The diverse list of binding partners from the proteomic studies suggest a degree of polypharmacology that should reduce the risk of resistance to this compound class emerging in the field.

Discovery of Trypanosoma brucei inhibitors enabled by a unified synthesis of diverse sulfonyl fluorides

Project description:A unified synthesis of skeletally-diverse sulfonyl fluorides was developed that relied upon photoredox-catalysed dehydrogenative couplings between hetaryl sulfonyl fluorides and hydrogen donor building blocks. A set of 32 diverse probes were prepared, and then screened against Trypanosoma brucei. Four of the probes were found to have sub-micromolar anti-trypanosomal activity. A chemical proteomic approach, harnessing an alkynylated analogue and broad-spectrum fluorophosphonate tools, provided insights into the observed anti-trypanosomal activity, which likely stems from covalent modification of multiple protein targets.

Dynamic mRNA Expression analysis of cells undergoing synchronous life-cycle differentiation in Trypanosoma brucei

Project description:mRNA expression profiles of trypanosomes from two discrete bloodstream form stages of the parasite (slender and stumpy forms), as well as during the transition of the stumpy population to the procyclic life-cycle stage were studied. Our analysis represents the first comparison of in vivo derived pleomorphic slender cells with genetically identical stumpy forms, and a first analysis of the dynamic changes in mRNA profile that accompany the transition to procyclic forms. Twenty nine RNA samples were generated (5 biological replicates of Stumpy (0h), 1h, 6h, 18h and 48h, and 4 biological replicates of slender forms. Four arrays failed QC.

Development of chemical proteomics for the folateome and analysis of the kinetoplastid folateome - Part 4

Project description:In this current study, we aimed to produce and develop an affinity matrix for enzymes involved in the folate metabolism of kinetoplastids, effectively the “folateome”folateome of these parasites. This information will then be used to determine the molecular targets of compounds targeting folate metabolism, and to correlate this to phenotypic responses. To achieve this, a small library of clinical and literature anti-folate compounds were immobilized onto resins and used in “pull-down” experiments with and without test compound present, to ascertain proteins binding specifically to particular resins.8,10-11 While the initial focus of this project was to establish the kinetoplastid folateome, the approach has the potential to be extended to other organisms.
