Project description:Background: Metabolic dysregulation has been implicated in bronchopulmonary dysplasia development. Taurine is an essential amino acid for neonates and is critically involved in glucose and fatty acid metabolism. Neonatal tissue obtains taurine mainly through the taurine transporter. The biological role of taurine in neonatal lung development has never been explored. As glucose metabolism mechanistically modulates angiogenesis and angiogenesis is the central player for neonatal lung development, we hypothesize that taurine depletion contributes to bronchopulmonary dysplasia development. Results: Although most genes and proteins for oxidative phosphorylation were enriched in hyperoxia pup lungs, the complex-1 activity decreased. The decrease in taurine-dependent complex-1 core subunits, ND5 and ND6, in hyperoxia lungs reasonably explained the discrepancy. Metabolomics analysis demonstrated decreased lung taurine with increased blood taurine of hyperoxia pups, compatible with the decreased taurine transporter expression. Decreased glycosylation and increased degradation explained the decreased taurine transporter expression. The results of the complementary study using tunicamycin and tauroursodeoxycholic acid studies supported that endoplasmic reticulum stress contributes to decreased taurine transporter expression in hyperoxia lungs. The effect of taurine treatment on reducing endoplasmic reticulum stress, increasing ND5 and ND6 expression, angiogenesis, and, most importantly, the alveolar formation is beneficial to hyperoxia rat pups. Conclusion: Hyperoxia exposure causes endoplasmic reticulum stress, increases taurine transporter degradation, and leads to taurine depletion in the neonatal lungs with subsequent metabolic dysregulation, resulting in poor alveolar formation of the neonatal lungs. We provide evidence of the never-being-reported protective role of taurine in neonatal lung development. The fact that taurine attenuates the severity of bronchopulmonary dysplasia by reducing hyperoxia-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial dysfunction indicates its therapeutic potential for treating bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

Project description:Taurine-respiring gut bacteria produce H2S with ambivalent impact on host health. We report the isolation and ecophysiological characterization of the first taurine-respiring mouse gut bacterium. Taurinivorans muris represents a new widespread species that differs from the human gut sulfidogen Bilophila wadsworthia in its sulfur metabolism pathways and host distribution. T. muris specializes in taurine respiration in vivo, seemingly unaffected by mouse diet and genotype, but is dependent on other bacteria for release of taurine from bile acids. This dataset contains the total proteomic data from three independent growth conditions.

Project description:Taurine is a supplement used to bolster immunity, but how taurine affects antitumor immunity remains largely unknown. We report that SLC6A6-mediated uptake of taurine by gastric cancer (GC) cells results in T cell exhaustion and cancer progression. SLC6A6 was correlated with GC aggressiveness and poor outcomes, and taurine uptake increased GC proliferation, survival, and cell motility. Taurine significantly increased CD8+ T cell infiltration and cytotoxic effector expression in GC tumors. Mechanistically, taurine deprivation in CD8+ T cells increased ER stress and the unfolded protein response, resulting in AT4 transcription, which acts as a switch for T cell exhaustion. SLC6A6 was transactivated by SP1 in GC cells, with a strong correlation between SP1 and SLC6A6 in GC patients. The SP1-SLC6A6 axis was triggered by chemotherapy. Our findings reveal that SLC6A6-mediated taurine consumption impacts immune evasion and propose that taurine supplementation might reinvigorate CD8+ T cell response and enhance therapy efficacy.

Project description:Taurine is known to be important for fetal well being and to be able to prevent effects of a low birthweight phenotype when supplemented to pregnant dams. We hypothesized that gestational taurine supplementation would affect gene expression level in 4w offspring liver and skeletal muscle. Pregnant mouse dams were subjected to different diet schemes from day 1 of pregnancy until birth. Pups were killed at 4 weeks of age and liver and quadriceps skeletal muscle taken out and frozen at -80C until analysis. Diet schemes: Normal Protein (20% casein; NP), Normal Protein + taurine (1% taurine supplementation in water ad libitum; NP+tau). The liver and muscle samples were normalized separately.

Project description:Taurine ameliorates changes occurring in newborn skeletal muscle as a result of gestational protein restriction in C57BL/6 mice, but taurine supplementation effects may be exaggerated in C57BL/6 mice due to their inherent excessive taurinuria. We examined if maternal taurine supplementation could ameliorate changes in gene expression levels, properties of mitochondria, myogenesis, and nutrient transport and sensing, in male newborn skeletal muscle caused by a maternal low protein (LP) diet in Wistar rats. LP diet resulted in an 11% non-significant decrease in birth weight, which was not rescued by taurine supplementation (LP-Tau). LP-Tau offspring had signifi-cantly lower birth weight compared to controls. Gene expression profiling revealed 895 significantly changed genes, mainly an LP-induced down-regulation of genes involved in protein translation. Taurine fully or partially rescued 32% of these changes, but with no distinct pattern as to which genes were rescued. Skeletal muscle taurine content in LP-Tau offspring was increased, but no changes in mRNA levels of the taurine synthesis pathway were observed. Taurine transporter mRNA levels, but not protein levels, were increased by LP diet. Nutrient sensing pathways were largely unaffected in LP or LP-Tau groups, although taurine supplementation caused an unexpected decrease in total Akt and AMPK protein levels. PAT4 amino acid transporter mRNA was increased by LP, and normalized by taurine supplementation. In conclusion, gestational protein restriction in rats decreased genes involved in protein translation in newborn skeletal muscle and led to changes in nutrient transporters. Taurine partly rescued these changes, hence underscoring the im-portance of taurine in development. We used microarrays to detail changes in global programme of gene expression in newborn offspring skeletal muscle brains from rats subjected to either a control diet, a low protein diet or a low protein diet + taurine supplementation

Project description:Purpose: Taurine promotes the activation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells. The goals of this study are to identify genes and pathways invovled in the regulation. Methods: Mouse plasmacytoid dendritic cells were stimulated with R837, together with or without taurine for 12 hours. Then, the next-generation libraries of mRNA were prepared using VAHTS mRNA-seq v2 Library Prep Kit for Illumina® (Vazyme, Nanjing, China). The Library quality was determined by Bioanalyzer 4200 (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Then the mRNA-seq libraries were sequenced in HiSeq ⅹ10 system (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA) on a 150bp paired-end run. The differentially expressed genes were selected as having more than 1 fold difference in their geometrical mean expression between the compared groups and a statistically significant p-value (<0.05) by analysis of DEseq2. The GO analysis on differentially expressed genes was performed with an R package: Clusterprofiler using a p<0.05 to define statistically enriched GO categories. Pathway analysis was used to determine the significant pathway of the differential genes according to Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes Database (http://www.genome.jp/kegg/) and DAVID Bioinformatics Resources 6.8 (https://david.ncifcrf.gov/). Results: Genes in the TLR7-IRF7 pathway were augmented by taurine. As a result, the production of type I IFNs increased upon taurine treatment.

Project description:Taurine was previously reported to increase the proliferation of neural precursor cells (NPCs) from subventricular zone of the mouse brain. The results of a study that aimed to understand the mechanisms of this effect are presented here. A gene expression profile analysis indicated that genes regulated by taurine have roles in proliferation, cellular adhesion, cell survival, and mitochondrial functioning. Together with additional functional analyses, the results suggest that taurine provides more favorable conditions for cell proliferation by improving mitochondrial functioning. The total RNA from the control and taurine NPC cultures was used to produce tagged complementary DNA (cDNA) probes. Hybridation analysis used the mouse 65-mer oligo library from Sigma-Genosys to compare the expression of 23,232 gene-specific oligonucleotide probes for mouse.
