Mitochondrial homeostasis of endocrine organ navigates nutrient restriction checkpoint

ABSTRACT: Steroid hormones are powerful endocrine regulators, but little is known about the integration of their production with environmental conditions. Here, we use Drosophila prothoracic gland (PG) to examine how insect steroid hormone production navigates a developmental checkpoint critical for juvenile-to-adult transition. Extensive transcriptome analysis of the PGs revealed that starvation during pre-nutrient restriction checkpoint (NRC) downregulated substantial mitochondria-related genes. We then discovered that pre-NRC starvation reduced prothoraciotropic hormone signaling, insulin signaling, and TORC1 activity in PG cells, which prevented mitochondrial fragmentation and import of Disembodied, a key steroidogenic enzyme. Ultimately, this starvation caused severe mitophagy and proteasome dysfunction, blocking ecdysteroidgenesis and metamorphosis. By contrast, post-NRC starvation did not impair mitochondrial homeostasis in PG cells, but reduced Sit expression and induced moderate autophagy to promote ecdysteroidgenesis, leading to precocious metamorphosis. This study constitutes a paradigm for exploring how steroid hormones themselves are controlled in response to environmental stress like starvation.

Genome-wide transcriptional analysis of PTTH-stimulated Bombyx prothoracic gland

Project description:This is part of a cross-species approach to characterize transcriptional response of the insect prothoracic gland (PG) to the prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH). Genome-wide response of the PG to PTTH was analyzed in vitro in Bombyx and in vivo in Drosophila, and the results were compared to identify common components in the PTTH signaling pathway. Bombyx PGs were incubated in vitro for 1 or 3 hours with or without 10 nM recombinant PTTH. 12-18 larvae were used to prepare each RNA sample, and the experiment was conducted twice. Total RNA samples from two independent preparations were combined to obtain a single RNA sample for each treatment, which was subjected to RNA-seq.

Mass Spectrometry Imaging and ScRNA-seq Techniques to Explore the Biosynthetic pathways of Bufadienolides

Project description:Bufotoxin is an endogenous toxin made up of several physiologically active components that toads deploy as a defense against their natural enemies. Bufadienolides (BDS), which is isolated from bufotoxin, is an important anticancer drug, and other components such as bufotenine and alkaloids are also important drug resources. The distribution characteristics and biosynthesis of bufotoxins in the postauricular glands (PGs) of toads are not well understood. We examined the toad's PGs using the MADLI/MSI technique, a total of 1,872 components were found, and some pharmacological components were visible. These findings indicate that bufotoxins are primarily abundant in the plasma glands (pG) and epidermal tissues of the glands. By using single-cell sequencing, it was possible to create a single-cell atlas of 9316 PGs cells. These cells were then categorized into nine clusters using marker genes, and two types of epithelial cells were verified using in situ hybridization investigations. It was confirmed that cholesterol is a precursor component of BDS biosynthesis, we concentrated on the cholesterol metabolism component and postulated the primary bile acid pathway as a downstream biosynthesis pathway of BDS through transcriptomic studies of two pG and mucous glands (MG) with distinct secretory functions. Optimal and silenced genes for potential BDS synthesis pathways, toad toxin tryptamine and alkaloid biosynthesis, terpene skeleton and steroid hormones were identified by calculating the cellular coverage of genes. Our data demonstrate the metabolic mapping of bufotoxins in the PGs of the toad, and create the first single-cell atlas of PGs in the toad, providing a reference for the study of biosynthesis of natural active ingredients in animals.

Identification of human genes of which expression are induced by 4MU-xyloside treatment

Project description:The Golgi stress response is a homeostatic mechanism that augments the functional capacity of the Golgi apparatus when Golgi function becomes insufficient (Golgi stress). Three response pathways of the Golgi stress response have been identified in mammalian cells, the TFE3, HSP47 and CREB3 pathways, which augment the capacity of specific Golgi functions such as N-glycosylation, anti-apoptotic activity and pro-apoptotic activity, respectively. On the contrary, glycosylation of proteoglycans (PGs) is another important function of the Golgi, although the response pathway upregulating expression of glycosylation enzymes for PGs in response to Golgi stress remains unknown. Here, we found that expression of glycosylation enzymes for PGs was induced upon insufficiency of PG glycosylation capacity in the Golgi (PG-Golgi stress), and that transcriptional induction of genes encoding glycosylation enzymes for PGs was independent of the known Golgi stress response pathways and ER stress response. Promoter analyses of genes encoding these glycosylation enzymes revealed the novel enhancer element PGSE, which regulates their transcriptional induction upon PG-Golgi stress. From these observations, the response pathway we discovered is a novel Golgi stress response pathway, which we have named the PG pathway.

Precocious metamorphosis of silkworm by BmNPV infection in the latter half of the fifth instar larvae

Project description:The silkworm, Bombyx mori, is a complete metamorphosis insect and an economically important for silk production, the model to study insect physiology and biochemistry. Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is a principal pathogen of the silkworm and its host range is restricted to silkworm larvae, requiring interaction with silkworm larvae to accomplish virus replication. Prothoracic glands (PGs) are a model for synthetic ecdysone with regulating insect growth and development. In this study, day-4 fifth instar silkworm larvae were infected by BmNPV, the wandering silkworms appeared in the infected groups were 12 hours earlier than that in the control groups, and the ecdysone titer in infected larvae was significantly higher than that of the control larvae. Then, we used RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to analyze silkworm PGs 48 h after BmNPV infection. The classifications of the 15 differential expression genes (DEGs) were mainly involved in the metabolic processes and pathways. The RT-qPCR results of the DEGs in the PGs of BmNPV-infected at 24, 48, and 72 h were generally consistent with the transcriptome data. The transcripts of BmTrypsin-1 and BmACSS3 were significantly increased from 24 to 72 h after BmNPV infection that they may be involved in the maturation process in the latter half of silkworm fifth instar larvae. These findings will help to address the interactions between BmNPV infection and host developmental response.

Interaction of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis) cell wall proteins with mustard leaf beetle (Phaedon cochleariae) polygalacturonase family members

Project description:Plants possess various defense strategies to counter attacks from microorganisms or herbivores. For example, plants reduce the cell-wall-macerating activity of pathogen- or insect-derived polygalacturonases (PGs) by expressing PG-inhibiting proteins (PGIPs). PGs and PGIPs belong to multi-gene families believed to have been shaped by an evolutionary arms race. The mustard leaf beetle Phaedon cochleariae expresses both active PGs and catalytically inactive PG pseudoenzymes. Previous studies demonstrated that (i) PGIPs target beetle PGs and (ii) the role of PG pseudoenzymes remains elusive, despite having been linked to the pectin degradation pathway. For further insight into the interaction between plant PGIPs and beetle PG family members, we combined affinity purification with proteomics and gene expression analyses, and identified novel inhibitors of beetle PGs from Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis). A beetle PG pseudoenzyme was not targeted by PGIPs, but instead interacted with PGIP-like proteins. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that PGIP-like proteins clustered apart from classical PGIPs but together with proteins, which have been involved in developmental processes. Our results indicate that PGIP-like proteins represent not only interesting novel PG inhibitor candidates in addition to classical PGIPs, but also fascinating new players in the arms race between herbivorous beetles and plant defenses.

Timecourse: MB neurons at the onset and early steps of axon pruning

Project description:Drosophila mushroom body (MB) γ neurons undergo axon pruning during metamorphosis through a process of localized degeneration of specific axon branches. Developmental axon degeneration is initiated at the onset of metamorphosis by the pre-pupal rise in the steroid hormone ecdysone. This study identifies genes that alter their expression in MB neurons at the onset and early steps of axon pruning. Keywords: timecourse

Relationship between thyroid hormones and associated metabolites and gene expression bioindicators in the serum of Rana [Lithobates] catesbeiana tadpoles and frogs during metamorphosis

Project description:Anuran metamorphosis is characterized by profound morphological changes including remodeling of tissues and organs. Here we investigate serum of Rana [Lithobates] catesbeiana (n=5-10) across seven distinct postembryonic stages beginning with premetamorphic tadpole (Gosner stage 31-33) and continuing through metamorphosis to a juvenile frog (Gosner stage 46). Using a sensitive nanoLC-Orbitrap system an untargeted analysis workflow was applied. Among 6,062 detected endogenous metabolites, 421 showed significant metamorphosis-dependent concentration dynamics. Among these potential bioindicators were several prostaglandins and other eicosanoids, some steroid hormones including testosterone, and several carnitines. These data provide a necessary context for interpreting developmental processes and potential molecular crosstalk mechanisms. Furthermore, this provides a solid foundation from which alternative bioindicators of metamorphosis may be chosen as feasible endpoints in future risk assessment of chemicals and their potency for causing developmental toxicity.

Inflammatory monocytes promote granuloma control of Yersinia infection

Project description:Granulomas are organized immune cell aggregates formed in response to chronic infection or antigen persistence. The bacterial pathogen Yersinia pseudotuberculosis (Yp) blocks innate inflammatory signalling and immune defence, inducing neutrophil-rich pyogranulomas (PGs) within lymphoid tissues. Here we uncover that Yp also triggers PG formation within the murine intestinal mucosa. Mice lacking circulating monocytes fail to form defined PGs, have defects in neutrophil activation and succumb to Yp infection. Yersinia lacking virulence factors that target actin polymerization to block phagocytosis and reactive oxygen burst do not induce PGs, indicating that intestinal PGs form in response to Yp disruption of cytoskeletal dynamics. Notably, mutation of the virulence factor YopH restores PG formation and control of Yp in mice lacking circulating monocytes, demonstrating that monocytes override YopH-dependent blockade of innate immune defence. This work reveals an unappreciated site of Yersinia intestinal invasion and defines host and pathogen drivers of intestinal granuloma formation.
