Dermacentor marginatus female adults transcriptome

ABSTRACT: The Ixodidea tick Dermacentor marginatus is a vector of many pathogens wide spread in Eurasia. Study of gene targets of the tick species provides insight to find novel tick protective antigen for drug development and vaccine targets. To obtain a broader picture of gene sequences and changes in expression level, we aimed to characterize the whole body transcriptome in D. marginatus adult female after engorgement and long-term starvation using RNA-seq. We have assembled and analyzed transcriptome of D. marginatus females 5 days after ecdysis, 24 h after a blood meal, and 6 months under controlled experimental conditions. Sequencing produced 30251 unigenes, of which 32% were annotated using Trinity. Gene expression was compared among groups differed by status as newly molted, starved and engorged female adult ticks. Nearly 1/3 of the unigenes in each group were differentially expressed compared to the other two group, and we found that the most numerous were proteins involved in catalytic and binding activities and apoptosis. Selected up-regulated differentially expressed genes in each group associated to protein, lipids, carbohydrate and chitin metabolism. Blood feeding and long-term starvation also caused genes differentially expressed in the defense response and antioxidant response. Finding the sequence information and expression pattern would be helpful in understanding molecular physiology of D. marginatus, and provides information for anti-tick vaccine and drug development.

RNA-seq of blood samples from bovines immunized with a multicomponent recombinant vaccine against cattle tick.

Project description:Tick infestations by Rhipicephalus microplus, the cattle tick, cause enormous losses to health and animal production. Ticks induce immune response in their hosts; therefore their immunobiological control is feasible. The available anti-tick vaccines display variable efficacy and short-lived, encouraging the search for new protective antigens. The identification of important genes in tick parasitism may indicate protective antigens useful to compose an anti-tick vaccine. We have developed and tested so far four recombinant salivary antigens as a multicomponent anti-tick vaccine in tick-susceptible bovines (Holstein breed). The challenge with R. microplus larvae displayed that tick infestation in vaccinated bovines was significantly reduced. In order to elucidate the molecular mechanisms trigged after immunisation and during infestation, RNA-seq data of peripheral blood from vaccinated and control animals were obtained in different periods of the immunisation trial. A total of 24 mRNA-seq Illumina libraries (single-end, 100 bp) were analysed to identify differential gene expression according to the experimental condition.

Subolesin knockdown in tick cells provides insights into vaccine protective mechanisms

Project description:Ticks, as obligate blood-feeding arthropod vectors of pathogenic viruses, bacteria, protozoa and helminths, are responsible for prevalent tick-borne diseases (TBDs) worldwide. This arthropod constitutes the second most common that transmit pathogens among humans, after mosquitoes, and the first vector in domestic animals. Vaccines constitute the safest and more effective approach to control tick and TBDs, but this is in constant research to identify new antigens and improve vaccines formulations. The tick antigen Subolesin is a well-known vaccine protective antigen with a highly conserved sequence at both gene and protein levels in the Ixodidae and among arthropods and vertebrates. In this study, RNAseq and proteomic analyses were carried out in wild type and Subolesin knockdown tick ISE6 cells in order to identify and characterize the functional implications of Subolesin in tick cells, demonstrating once again the importance of this antigen in vaccine development against tick and TBDs.

Differential expression and correlation analysis of mRNA and miRNA based on Brain transcriptome in the discus fish (Symphysodon aequifasciatus)

Project description:The discus fish (Symphysodon aequifasciatus) is an ornamental fish, which occupies important position on the freshwater aquarium trade. We built two cDNA libraries from an adult male brain and an adult female brain, and performed RNA-sequencing for identifying sex-biased candidate genes , a total number of 40209 non-redundant genes (unigenes) were obtained, of which 250 unigenes were significant overexpressed in the male brain, and 436 unigenes were significant overexpressed in the female. A total of 439 miRNAs were identified, of which 60 miRNAs were differentially expressed between male brain and female brain. These results can provide important evidence for better understanding the molecular mechanisms of the brain's amphoteric dimorphism in discus fish

Tick host range adaptation: changes in protein profiles in Ixodes scapularis and Amblyomma americanum saliva during stimulation to feed on different hosts

Project description:Understanding the molecular basis of how the tick adapts to feed on different animal hosts is central to understanding tick and tick-borne disease (TBD) epidemiology. Tick adaptation to feed on vertebrate hosts is regulated by tick secretion of multiple tick saliva proteins (TSPs) and other molecules that regulate tick feeding. This study was initiated to determine if ticks such as Ixodes scapularis and Amblyomma americanum that are adapted to feed on multiple hosts utilized the same sets of proteins to accomplish feeding on all hosts. Our data suggest that ticks of the same species differentially express proteins when feeding on diffent hosts. SDS-PAGE and silver staining analysis revealed unique protein eletrophoretic profile in saliva of Ixodes scapularis and Amblyomma americanum that were stimulated to start feeding on different hosts: rabbits, humans, and dogs. LC-MS/MS sequencing and pairwise analysis of proteins in saliva of I. scapularis and A. americanum ticks that were non-stimulated and those that were stimulated to feed on rabbits, dogs, or humans identified TSPs that were unique to each treatment and those that were common. Overal, we identified a total of 276 and 340 non-redundant I. scapularis and A. americanum TSPs, which we have classified into 28 functional classes that include secreted conserved proteins (unknown functions), proteinase inhibitors, lipocalins, extracellular matrix/cell adhesion, heme/iron metabolism, signal transduction and immunity-related proteins being the most predominant in saliva of unfed ticks. With exception of Rhipicephalus microplus, anti-tick vaccine research relies on feeding lab animals. Data here suggest that lab animal data could result in prioritizing irrelevant targets as some tick genes are unique to ticks fed on lab animals. This study provides the platform that could be utilized to identify relevant target anti-tick vaccine antigens, and will facilitate early stage tick feeding research.

Altered mRNA expression in sika deer skeletal muscle with age

Project description:Studies of the gene expression profiles associated with the postnatal late growth, development and aging of skeletal muscle are lacking in sika deer. To understand the molecular mechanisms of the growth and development of sika deer skeletal muscle, we used de novo RNA-seq analyses to determine the diﬀerential expression of unigenes from skeletal muscle tissues at 1, 3, 5, and 10-year-old in sika deer. A total of 51716 unigenes were identified based on four mRNA libraries. 2044 unigenes were differentially expressed between adolescence and juvenile sika deer, 1946 unigenes were differentially expressed between adult and adolescence sika deer, and 2209 unigenes were differentially expressed between aged and adult sika deer. GO and KEGG analyses showed that DE unigenes were mainly related to energy and substance metabolism, processes that are closely associate with growth, development and aging of skeletal muscle. We also constructed mRNA-mRNA interaction networks related to growth, development and aging of skeletal muscle. The results showed that Myh1, Myh2, Myh7, ACTN3 etc. may play important roles in muscle growth and development, and WWP1, DEK, UCP3, FUS etc. may have key roles in muscle aging. In this study, we determined the dynamic unigenes transcriptome in muscle tissue for the first time in sika deer. The age-dependent unigenes identified will offer insights into the molecular mechanism underlying muscle development, growth and maintenance and also provide valuable information for sika deer genetic breeding.
