Glycogene expression profiles from a HaCaT cell line stably transfected with HPV16 E5 oncogene.

ABSTRACT: The altered expression of glycan antigens has been reported during cervix transformation, demonstrating increased mRNA levels of certain glycogenes. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the aetiological agent of cervical cancer. High risk HPV E5 is considered an oncogene and has been implicated in cell transformation. E6 and E7 HPV oncoproteins modify the expression of certain glycogenes. The role of the E5 HPV protein in glycogene expression changes has not yet been reported. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of HPV16 E5 oncoprotein on glycogene expression. For these, a microarray assay was performed using the HaCaT cell line and altered glycogenes were identified. The mRNA levels of certain glycogenes were determined via reverse transcription?quantitative PCR (RT?qPCR). Using in silico analysis, the present study identified that glycosylation pathways were altered by E5. Microarray analysis revealed alterations in certain glycogenes, including the upregulation of ST6GAL1, ST3GAL3, CHST2 and MANBA, and the downregulation of UGT2B15, GALNT11, NDST2 and UGT1A10. Increased mRNA levels were confirmed via RT?qPCR for sialyltransferases genes. Additionally, in silico analysis was performed to identify glycosylation networks altered in the presence of the E5 oncoprotein. The analysis revealed that E5 could modify glycan sialylation, the N?glycosylation pathway, keratan sulfate and glycosaminoglycan synthesis. To the best of our knowledge, the current study was the first to determine the role of the HPV16 E5 oncoprotein in glycogene expression changes. The results indicated that increased sialyltransferase mRNA levels reported in pre?malignant and malignant cervical tissues could be the result of E5 oncoprotein expression. The results provide a possible role of HPV infection on glycosylation changes reported during cervix transformation.

Project description:Babesia bovis is a tick-borne intraerythocytic protozoan responsible for acute disease in cattle which can be controlled by vaccination with attenuated B. bovis strains. Emerging B. bovis transfection technologies may increase the usefulness of these live vaccines. One use of transfected B. bovis parasites may be as a vaccine delivery platform. Previous transfection methods for B. bovis were limited by single expression sites and intracellular expression of transfected antigens. This study describes a novel transfection system in which two exogenous genes are expressed: one for selection and the other for a selected antigen designed to be delivered to the surface of the parasites. The strategy for duplicating the number of transfected genes was based on the use of the putative bidirectional promoter of the B. bovis 1.4 Kb ef-1α intergenic region. The ability of this region to regulate two independent expression sites was demonstrated using a luciferase assay on transiently transfected B. bovis parasites and then incorporated into a stable transfection plasmid to control independent expression of the selectable marker GFP-BSD and another gene of interest. A chimeric gene was synthetized using sequences from the protective B-cell epitopes of Rhipicephalus microplus tick antigen Bm86 along with sequences from the surface exposed B. bovis major surface antigen-1. This chimeric gene was then cloned into the additional expression site of the transfection plasmid. Transfection of the B. bovis Mo7 strain with this plasmid resulted in stable insertion into the ef-1α locus and simultaneous expression of both exogenous genes. Expression of the Bm86 epitopes on the surface of transfected merozoites was demonstrated using immunofluorescence analyses. The ability to independently express multiple genes by the inclusion of a bidirectional promoter and the achievement of surface expression of foreign epitopes advances the potential of transfected B. bovis as a future vaccine delivery platform.
