Expression profiles of mRNA and lncRNA in HCT-8 cells infected with Cryptosporidium parvum IId subtype

ABSTRACT: Cryptosporidium parvum is one of the most important opportunistic enteric parasites, causing severe diarrhea in immunocomprised human and animals. However, few effective control agents were available for this parasite. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) was discovered to play key roles in many diseases through regulating the gene expression. Here, using microarray assay, we investigated the expression profiles of mRNA and lncRNA in HCT-8 cells after the infection of C. parvum IId subtype, the prevalent subtype of China. A total of 821 lncRNAs and 1,349 mRNAs were dysregulated expressed in HCT-8 cells at 24 h post infection (pi) of C. parvum IId subtype. Of them, all five types of lncRNAs were identified, including 302 of sense, 280 of antisense, 312 of intergenic, 44 of divergent, and 33 of intronic lncRNAs. Ten lncRNAs and ten mRNAs randomly selected were successfully confirmed the microarray results. The co-expression and target prediction analysis indicated 27 of mRNAs cis-regulated by 29 lncRNAs and 109 of coding genes trans-regulated by 114 lncRNAs. These predicted targets were enriched in pathways involved in the interaction between host and C. parvum, eg. hedgehog signaling pathway, Wnt signaling pathway and tight junction, suggesting that these aberrantly lncRNAs would play important regulating roles during infection of C. parvum IId subtype.

Project description:Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are increasingly implicated as gene regulators and may ultimately be more numerous than protein-coding genes in the human genome. Despite large numbers of reported lncRNAs, reference annotations are likely incomplete due to their lower and tighter tissue-specific expression compared to mRNAs. An unexplored factor potentially confounding lncRNA identification is inter-individual expression variability. Here, we characterize lncRNA natural expression variability in human primary granulocytes. Results: We annotate granulocyte lncRNAs and mRNAs in RNA-seq data from ten healthy individuals, identifying multiple lncRNAs absent from reference annotations, and use this to investigate three known features (higher tissue-specificity, lower expression, and reduced splicing efficiency) of lncRNAs relative to mRNAs. Expression variability was examined in seven individuals sampled three times at one or more than one month intervals. We show that lncRNAs display significantly more inter-individual expression variability compared to mRNAs. We confirm this finding in 2 independent human datasets by analyzing multiple tissues from the GTEx project and lymphoblastoid cell lines from the GEUVADIS project. Using the latter dataset we also show that including more human donors into the transcriptome annotation pipeline allows identification of an increasing number of lncRNAs, but minimally affects mRNA gene number. Conclusions: A comprehensive annotation of lncRNAs is known to require an approach that is sensitive to low and tight tissue-specific expression. Here we show that increased inter-individual expression variability is an additional general lncRNA feature to consider when creating a comprehensive annotation of human lncRNAs or proposing their use as prognostic or disease markers. We used PolyA+ RNA-seq data from human primary granulocytes of 10 healthy individuals to de novo annotate lncRNAs and mRNAs in this cell type and ribosomal depleted (total) RNA-seq data from seven of these individuals sampled three times to analyze lncRNA amd mRNA expression variability

Project description:Purporse: FPV can cause a viral disease that occurs in cats, causing severe leukopenia, gastro-enteritis and nervous signs and leads to significant losses. LncRNAs biochemically resemble mRNAs posited by Jacob and Monod, yet do not template protein synthesis. Rather, lncRNAs functioning as RNA genes to play an important role in many biological and pathological processes such as inflammation and viral infection. However, lncRNAs have not been comprehensively identified in felines. Here, microarrays of mRNAs and lncRNAs were globally performed to identify the lncRNAs related to immune response of feline panleukopenia virus infection in F81 cells. Methods:lncRNA and mRNA sequencing analysis was performed on an Illumina Hiseq 4000 (LC Sciences, USA) following the vendor's recommended protocol Results: Through RNA sequencing, we performed a comprehensive analysis of lncRNAs and mRNAs in FPV infected F81 cells. F81 cells infected or uninfected FPV were used to prepare six libraries to generate 14.66 to 15.45 gigabytes (GB) clean reads per sample. We obtained 90588 novel lncRNAs, and 291 are differential expressed lncRNAs between FPV infected cells and uninfected cells. Consistent with previous studies, lncRNAs showed features distinct from mRNAs, such as shorter lengths, lesser exon numbers, and lower expression levels compared to mRNAs. The GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analyses showed that a majority of genes and lncRNAs were mainly related to the immune response of host cells with FPV infection. By differentially expressed target genes as well as co-expression network construction analysis, 21 key differentially expressed genes (19 upregulated & 2 downregulated) related to immune regulation of FPV infection in F81 cells were identified. Moreover, fifteen differentially expressed genes (five lncRNAs, ten mRNAs) were selected and independently validated by reverse-transcription qPCR and the results were consistent with the sequencing results. Conclusion: The present study is the first to provide insights into the biological connection of lncRNAs and FPV infection, which can be further explore for the potential link between lncRNA expression and the pathogenesis of FPV infection.
