Project description:Transcriptional profiling of TGF-beta treated Schistosoma mansoni adult worms vs. Non-treated Schistosoma mansoni adult worms Two conditions (treated vs. Non-treated) with three biological samples of treated worms (TGF1, 4 and 5) and two biological samples of non-treated worms that were pooled into a single sample (pool). For each sample (three treated or polled non-treated) were performed four technical replicas

Project description:STUDY THE EFFECT OF TGF beta ON SCHISTOSOME ADULT WORMSGoal: Primary: Assess the effects of TGF beta on transcription of adult male and female schistosomes. Secondary: Identify the pathways regulated by TGF beta in worm pairs, mature males, mature females, immature males and immature females.METHODS:Parasite: Schistosoma mansoni employed is the NMRI strain that is maintained in a Puerto Rican Biomphalaria glabrata and Golden Syrian hamsters. The life cycle is maintained in the LoVerde lab.Cercariae obtained from infected snails were used to infect experimental animals. The cercariae wre shed from snails exposed to multiple miracidia for mixed infections or from snails exposed to a single miracidia for single-sex infections. Schistosome worms were recovered from hamsters by perfusion (Duvall and DeWitt, 1967) 45 days post infection. Freshly perfused adult worms containing mixed-sex or single-sex infections were collected from infected golden hamsters, washed and incubated for overnight at 37C, 5% CO2 in MEM medium supplemented with 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 1 X non-essential amino acid solution, 1 X amino acid solution, 100 U ml penicillin, 100 ug ml streptomycin 1 ug ml amphotericin B (antibiotic antimycotic solution) and 2 mM Glutamax-I. Recombinant human TGF- beta1 was added individually to about 25 pairs or 30 individual schistosomes to a final concentrations of 1.0 nM and incubation was continued for another 24 hr. The controls were treated as above except no TGF-beta1 was added. The worms were placed in RNAlater and sent to WTSI (Anna) for RNA extraction and sequencing.Duvall RH, Dewitt WD.

Project description:RIE (rat intestinal epithelial) cells treated with 2 ng/ml of TGF-beta-1 for 1 hr were compared to control cells. The experiment was performed under identical conditions four times: RIE vs RIE - TGF-beta #1-#4. RIE-Ras cells were established by stable transfection of the parental cells with pSV2-H-Ras(12V) which contain human sequences encoding the constitutively active H-Ras(12V) protein. RIE-Ras cells treated with 2 ng/ml of TGF-beta-1 for 1 hr were compared to control cells. The experiment was performed four times under identical conditions (RIE-Ras vs RIE-RAS TGF-beta #1-#4).

Project description:Characteristic structural details of the cornea are transparency, the absence of blood vessels, and the presence of numerous sensory nerve endings. The corneal epithelium is one of the most densely innervated tissues of the body. The characteristics of the cornea are established during fetal development, and are lost in adult life when the cornea regenerates after injury. The common reaction of the cornea to injury is the formation of opaque scars, the ingrowth of blood vessels, and distinct changes in the innervation pattern. Scar formation of the cornea is critically modulated by the expression of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta). To identify genes that are important for corneal transparency, dense innervation and absence of blood vessels by comparing corneas from wildtype mice with those that are under the influence of high doses of TGF-beta. Transparency, dense innervation, and absence of blood vessels in the cornea all depend on the expression of a critical set of genes that are not expressed when TGF-beta is present. Mice were generated that overexpress TGF-beta under control of a strong lens-specific promoter. These mice developed opaque corneas that are vascularized and lack sensory nerves. In addition, these corneas were densely populated with cells expressing neural cell adhesion protein. RNA was isolated from corneas of transgenic animals and wildtype littermates in order to analyze differentially expressed genes and to identify those that are only expressed in transparent, avascular, and densely innervated wildtype corneas.

Project description:The role of TGF-β-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer cell dissemination is well established, but the involvement of lncRNAs in TGF-β signaling is still unknown. In this study, we observed that the lncRNA-Activated by TGF-β (lncRNA-ATB) was upregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) metastases and associated with poor prognosis. lncRNA-ATB promotes the invasion-metastasis cascade, which suggest that lncRNA-ATB, a mediator of TGF-β signaling, could predispose HCC patients to metastases and may serve as a potential target for anti-metastatic therapies.

Project description:The leishmaniases are a complex of vector-borne diseases caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania. LEISHDNAVAX is a multi-antigen, T-cell epitope-enriched DNA vaccine candidate against human leishmaniasis. The vaccine candidate has been proven immunogenic and showed prophylactic efficacy in preclinical studies. Here, we describe the safety testing of LEISHDNAVAX in naive mice and rats, complemented by the demonstration of tolerability in Leishmania-infected mice. Biodistribution and persistence were examined following single and repeated intradermal (i.d.) administration to rats. DNA vectors were distributed systemically but did not accumulate upon repeated injections. Although vector DNA was cleared from most other tissues within 60 days after the last injection, it persisted in skin at the site of injection and in draining lymph nodes. Evaluation of single-dose and repeated-dose toxicity of the vaccine candidate after i.d. administration to naive, non-infected mice did not reveal any safety concerns. LEISHDNAVAX was also well tolerated in Leishmania-infected mice. Taken together, our results substantiate a favorable safety profile of LEISHDNAVAX in both naive and infected animals and thus, support the initiation of clinical trials for both preventive and therapeutic applications of the vaccine.

Project description:While TGF-β signaling is essential for microglial function, the cellular source of TGF-β ligand and its spatial regulation remains unclear in adult CNS. Our data supports that microglia but not astrocytes or neurons are the primary producers of TGF-β1 ligands needed for microglial homeostasis. Microglia-Tgfb1 KO leads to activation of microglia featuring a dyshomeostatic transcriptomic profile that resembles disease-associated microglia (DAMs), injury-associated microglia, and aged microglia, suggesting that microglial self-produced TGF-β1 ligands are important in the adult CNS. Interestingly, astrocytes in the MG-tgfb1 iKO mice show a transcriptome profile that is closely aligned with A1-like astrocytes. Additionally, using sparse mosaic single cell microglia KO of TGF-β1 ligand we established an autocrine mechanism for TGF-β signaling. Importantly MG-Tgfb1 inducible KO mice show cognitive deficits, supporting that precise spatial regulation of TGF-β1 ligand derived from microglia is critical for the maintenance of brain homeostasis and normal cognitive function in the adult brain.
