Peeling back the layers of competitive exclusion using Salmonella as a model

ABSTRACT: An ex vivo system was developed to monitor Salmonella growth, virulence (SPI1 expression) and gene expression (measured by microarray) in response to the permissive and exclusive communities. Yellow fluorescent protein (yfp) and cyan fluorescent protein (cfp) variants were fused to the rrn growth-dependent promoter and the hilA operon (SPI-1 cell invasion locus), respectively, in Salmonella. Fluorescence associated with the YFP and CFP reporters was used to monitor Salmonella growth and SPI1 virulence gene expression in co-culture with cecal communities ex vivo. The Salmonella reporter strain was grown in dialysis tubing in a simulated cecal medium, ex vivo cecal contents (EVCC), submerged in permissive or exclusive communities, to enable collection of Salmonella cells for study. Initially, the fluorescent reporters were used to empirically determine the earliest time point at which the exclusive community had the most significant impact on Salmonella growth or virulence expression relative to the permissive community, which was six-hour co-culture of the reporter strain with the communities. Cells were harvested at that time point for gene expression comparisons. Genes within metabolic pathways that were differentially expressed in permissive vs. exclusive communities were subsequently deleted in Salmonella and mutants’ growth dynamics when cocultured with the exclusive community were monitored over 48 hours using a fluorescence plate reader.

Effect of cFP on gene expression in Vibiro cholerae

Project description:Vibrio cholerae is a Gram negative, motile, facultative anaerobic bacterium, and the causative agent of cholera, a severe diarrhoeal disease, which untreated can rapidly lead to dehydration, hypotensive shock, and death. Cholera is a significant human disease that is estimated to affect 3-5 million people each year. The mechanism by which V. cholerae regulates virulence gene expression in vivo is unknown, but a number of studies have suggested that low molecular weight signally molecules may be important in modulating gene expression. cFP is a low molecular weight cyclic dipeptide produced by multiple Vibrio species. Evidence previously generated in our laboratory showed that cFP inhibited the production of the virulence factors cholera toxin (CT) and the toxin coregulated pilus (TCP) in O1 El Tor V. cholerae strain N16961 during growth under virulence gene inducing conditions. cFP inhibition of CT and TCP production correlated with reduced transcription of several regulators that belong to the ToxR regulon. To identify additional cFP-responsive genes we performed microarray experiments with the O1 El Tor V. cholerae strain N16961. In these experiments N16961 was grown under virulence gene inducing conditions in the presence and absence of cFP before RNA was extracted and hybridized to microarrays. The results showed that cFP positively affected the expression of the LysR-family regulatory protein LeuO. This finding suggests the possibility that LeuO may be mediating cFP-dependent regulation of gene expression in response to environmental cFP. V. cholerae N16961 was grown under AKI growth condition in the presence or absence of 1 mM cFP for 2.5 or 3 hours when total RNA was extracted, differentially labelled and hybridized to microarrays. Four independent experiments were performed.

A transcriptomic analysis of the effects of macrophage polarization and endotoxin tolerance on the response to Salmonella

Project description:Salmonella is an intracellular pathogen causing significant morbidity and mortality. Its ability to grow inside macrophages is important to virulence, and is dependent on the activation state of the macrophages. Classically activated M1 macrophages are non-permissive for Salmonella growth, while alternatively activated M2 macrophages are permissive for Salmonella growth. Here we showed that endotoxin-primed macrophages (MEP), such as those associated with sepsis, showed similar levels of Salmonella resistance to M1 macrophages after 2 hr of intracellular infection, but at the 4 hr and 24 hr time points were susceptible like M2 macrophages. To understand this mechanistically, transcriptome sequencing, RNA-Seq, was performed. This showed that M1 and MEP macrophages that had not been exposed to Salmonella, demonstrated a process termed here as primed activation, in expressing relatively higher levels of particular anti-infective genes and pathways, including the JAK-STAT pathway. In contrast, in M2 macrophages these genes and pathways were largely expressed only in response to infection. Conversely, in response to infection, M1 macrophages, but not MEP macrophages, modulated additional genes known to be associated with susceptibility to Salmonella infection, possibly contributing to the differences in resistance at later time points. Application of the JAK inhibitor Ruxolitinib before infection reduced resistance in M1 macrophages, supporting the importance of early JAK-STAT signalling in M1 resistance to Salmonella.

Co-exposure to Polyethylene Fiber and Salmonella enterica Typhimurium Alters Microbiome and Metabolome of in vitro Chicken Cecal Mesocosms

Project description:Humans and animals encounter a summation of exposures during their lifetime (the exposome). In recent years, the scope of the exposome has begun to include microplastics. Microplastics (MPs) have increasingly been found in locations where there could be an interaction with Salmonella enterica Typhimurium, one of the commonly isolated serovars from processed chicken. In this study, the microbiota response to a 24-hour co-exposure to Salmonella enterica Typhimurium and/or low-density polyethylene (PE) microplastics in an in vitro broiler cecal model was determined using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing (Illumina) and untargeted metabolomics. Community sequencing results indicated that PE fiber with and without S. Typhimurium yielded a lower Firmicutes/Bacteroides ratio compared to other treatment groups, which is associated with poor gut health, and overall had greater changes to the cecal microbial community composition. However, changes in the total metabolome were primarily driven by the presence of S. Typhimurium. Additionally, the co-exposure to PE Fiber and S. Typhimurium caused greater cecal microbial community and metabolome changes than either exposure alone. Our results indicate that polymer shape is an important factor in effects resulting from exposure. It also demonstrates that microplastic-pathogen interactions cause metabolic alterations to the chicken cecal microbiome in an in vitro chicken cecal model.

rat cecal microbiota LC-MSMS

Project description:Pu-erh tea has attracted increasing attention worldwide because of its special flavor and health effects, but its impact on composition and function of the gut microbiota remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate effects of aqueous extracts of fermented (ripe) and non-fermented (raw) Pu-erh teas on the composition and function of intestinal microbiota of rats with diet-induced obesity. We conducted a comparative metagenomic and metaproteomic investigation of the microbial communities in cecal samples taken from obese rats administrated with or without extracts of raw and ripe Pu-erh tea. By analyzing the composition and diversity of 16S rRNA amplicons and expression profiles of 814 distinct proteins, we found that, despite differences in the chemical compositions of the raw and ripe Pu-erh tea, administration of either at two different doses (0.15 and 0.40 g/Kg body weight), significantly (P<0.05) increased community diversity, and changed the composition of the cecal microbiota by increasing the relative abundances of Firmicutes and decreasing those of Bacteroidetes. Community metabolic processes including sucrose metabolism, glycolysis, syntheses of proteins, rRNA and antibiotics were significantly (P<0.05), or had a tendency (0.10<P<0.05) to be, promoted by enriching relevant enzymes. Furthermore, evidences from population, molecular and metabolic levels have shown that polyphenols of raw Pu-erh tea and their metabolites can promote potentially the growth of Akkermansia municiphila by stimulating the type II and III secretion system protein, elongation factor Tu, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This study has provided new evidences for the prebiotic effects of Pu-erh tea.

Niche-specific profiling reveals transcriptional adaptations required for the cytosolic lifestyle of Salmonella enterica

Project description:Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a zoonotic pathogen that causes diarrheal disease in humans and animals. During salmonellosis, S. Typhimurium colonizes epithelial cells lining the gastrointestinal tract. S. Typhimurium has an unusual lifestyle in epithelial cells that begins within an endocytic-derived Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV), followed by escape into the cytosol, epithelial cell lysis and bacterial release. The cytosol is a more permissive environment than the SCV and supports rapid bacterial growth. The physicochemical conditions encountered by S. Typhimurium within the cytosol, and the bacterial genes required for cytosolic colonization, remain unknown. Here we have exploited the parallel colonization strategies of S. Typhimurium in epithelial cells to decipher the two niche-specific bacterial virulence programs. By combining a population-based RNA-seq approach with single-cell microscopic analysis, we identified bacterial genes/sRNAs with cytosol-specific or vacuole-specific expression signatures. Using these genes/sRNAs as environmental biosensors, we defined that Salmonella is exposed to iron and manganese deprivation and oxidative stress in the cytosol and zinc and magnesium deprivation in the SCV. Furthermore, iron availability was critical for optimal S. Typhimurium replication in the cytosol, as well as entC, fepB, soxS and sitA-mntH. Virulence genes that are typically associated with extracellular bacteria, namely Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1) and SPI4, had a cytosolic-specific expression profile. Our study reveals that the cytosolic and vacuolar S. Typhimurium virulence gene programs are unique to, and tailored for, residence within distinct intracellular compartments. Therefore, this archetypical vacuole-adapted pathogen requires extensive transcriptional reprogramming to successfully colonize the mammalian cytosol.

Codependency and mutual exclusivity for gene community detection from sparse single-cell transcriptome data

Project description:Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) can be used to characterize cellular heterogeneity in thousands of cells. The reconstruction of a gene network based on coexpression patterns is a fundamental task in scRNA-seq analyses, and the mutual exclusivity of gene expression can be critical to understand such heterogeneity. Here, we propose an approach for detecting communities from a gene network constructed on the basis of coexpression properties. The community-based comparison of multiple coexpression networks enables the identification of functionally related gene clusters that cannot be fully captured through differential gene expression-based analysis. We also developed a novel metric referred to as the exclusively expressed index (EEI) that identifies mutually exclusive gene pairs from sparse scRNA-seq data. EEI quantifies and ranks the exclusive expression levels of all gene pairs from binary expression patterns while maintaining robustness against a low sequencing depth. We applied our methods to glioblastoma scRNA-seq data and found that gene communities are partially conserved after serum stimulation despite a considerable number of differentially expressed genes. We also demonstrate that the identification of mutually exclusive gene sets with EEI can improve the sensitivity of capturing cellular heterogeneity. Our methods complement existing approaches and provide new biological insights from even a large sparse dataset in the single-cell analysis field.
