Comparative Expression Profiling of E. coli and S. aureus inoculated primary Mammary Gland Cells sampled from Cows with different genetic Predisposition for Somatic Cell Score

ABSTRACT: Establishment of an in vitro system to explore molecular mechanisms of mastitis susceptibility in cattle by comparative expression profiling of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus inoculated primary cells sampled from cows with different genetic predisposition for somatic cell score Primary bovine mammary gland epithelial cells (pbMEC) were sampled from the udder parenchyma of cows that were selected for high and low mastitis susceptibility by applying a marker assisted selection strategy considering QTL and molecular marker information of a repetitively confirmed QTL for SCS in the telomeric region on BTA18 The cells were cultivated and subsequently inoculated with heat inactivated mastitis pathogens Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, respectively. After 1, 6 and 24 hours the cells were harvested and comparatively analyzed using microarray expression chip technology to identify differences in mRNA expression profiles attributed to cultivation, inoculation or to genetic predisposition.

After 1, 6 and 24 hours the cells were harvested and comparatively analyzed using microarray expression chip technology to identify differences in mRNA expression profiles attributed to cultivation, inoculation or to genetic predisposition. Six heifers inheriting the favorable paternal QTL allele and five heifers inheriting the unfavorable QTL allele were selected by applying a marker assisted selection strategy. All heifers were kept under the same environmental conditions, had no clinical mastitis and did not show any indication of bacterial infection at slaughter. Primary bovine mammary gland epithelial cell cultures were established from cells sampled from the udder parenchyma of each cow. The cells were challenged with heat inactivated Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus or with PBS for control. After 1, 6 and 24 hours the cells were harvested and mRNA expression was comparatively analyzed between time points for each treatment and each paternally inherited SCS-BTA18-QTL allele, respectively. In addition, the differences in gene expression at time points 1, 6 and 24h between inoculated and respective uninoculated control cells were investigated using the short time series expression miner STEM for co-expression profiling and GO cattegory enrichment analyses.

Project description:Mastitis is a common disease that hinders the development of dairy industry and animal husbandry. It leads to the abuse of antibiotics, the emergence of super drug-resistant bacteria, and poses a great threat to human food health and safety. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) are the most common pathogens of mastitis in dairy cows and usually cause subclinical or clinical mastitis. CircRNAs and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) play important roles in immunological diseases. However, the mechanisms by which m6A modifies circRNA in bovine mammary epithelial cells remain poorly understood. The aim of our study was to investigate m6A-modified circRNAs in bovine mammary epithelial cells (MAC-T cells) injured by S. aureus and E. coli. The profile of m6A-modified circRNA showed a total of 1599 m6A peaks within 1035 circRNAs in the control group, 35 peaks within 32 circRNAs in the S. aureus group, and 1016 peaks within 728 circRNAs in the E. coli group. Compared with the control group, 67 peaks within 63 circRNAs were significantly different in the S. aureus group, and 192 peaks within 137 circRNAs were significantly different in the E. coli group. Furthermore, we found the source genes of these differentially m6A-modified circRNAs in the S. aureus and E. coli groups with similar functions according to GO and KEGG analyses, which were mainly associated with cells injury, such as inflammation, apoptosis, and autophagy. CircRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction networks predicted the potential circRNA regulation mechanism in S. aureus- and E. coli-induced cell injury. We found that the mRNAs in the networks, such as BCL2, MIF and TNFAIP8L2, greatly participated in the MAPK, WNT, and inflammation pathways. This is the first report on m6A-modified circRNA regulation of cells under S. aureus and E. coli treatment, and sheds new light on potential mechanisms and targets from the perspective of epigenetic modification in mastitis and other inflammatory diseases.
