Project description:Aspergillus fumigatus is an important human pathogen and a leading fungal killer. This study aimed to determine the small RNA repertoire of A. fumigatus in conidia and mycelium grown for 24 or 48 hours in liquid culture.

Project description:The RNA interference (RNAi) pathway has evolved numerous functionalities in eukaryotes, with many on display in Kingdom Fungi. RNAi can regulate gene expression, facilitate drug resistance, or even be altogether lost to improve virulence potential in some fungal pathogens. In the WHO fungal priority pathogen, Aspergillus fumigatus, the RNAi system is known to be intact and functional. To extend our limited understanding of A. fumigatus RNAi, we performed a multi-condition sRNA-seq analysis comparing expression of several RNAi double knockout mutants with the wild-type strain in conidia and mycelium grown for 24 or 48 hours.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to investigate the responses of HUVECs after the stimulation of conidia of A. fumigatus Methods: HUVECs were stimulated with conidia of Aspergillus fumigatus for 2 and 6 hours. Three biological repeats of stimulated cells or un-stimulated controls were send for RNA sequencing. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 40 million sequence reads per sample to the human genome (build hg38) and identified round 80,000 transcripts in the HUVECs upon stimulation. Conclusions: Our resutls showed the detailed analysis of HUVECs transcriptomes upton conidia of Aspergillus fumigatus stimulation.

The analysis linked the A. fumigatus dicer-like enzymes and RNA-dependent RNA polymerases to regulation of conidial ribosome biogenesis. Cumulatively, A. fumigatus RNAi appears to play an active role in defense against double-stranded RNA species alongside a previously unappreciated housekeeping function in regulation of conidial ribosomal biogenesis genes.

Project description:To investigate the influence of Aspergillus fumigatus on iron regulation in macrophages, we obtained macrophages in culture from human derived monocytes and co-cultured the monocyte-derived macrophages with Aspergillus conidia at a 1:1 ratio. We collected samples at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours and extracted RNA. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of control macrophages and macrophage co-cultured with Aspergillus fumigatus at five time points.

Project description:Microarray analysis was used to compare different divelopmental stages of the filamentous fungi Aspergillus fumigatus af293. Cells were grone for various times and comparisons made between: 1. Dormant conidia (0 hours) and isotropically expanding cells (1hr). 2. Dormant conidia (0 hours) and isotropically expanding cells (2hr) . 3. Dormant conidia (0 hours) and isotropically expanding cells (4hr). 4. Isotropically expanding cells (4hr) and polarity extending cells (6hr). 4. Isotropically expanding cells (4hr) and germ tube (8hr).

Project description:Response of A549 cells treated with Aspergillus fumigatus wild type germinating conidia (WT_GC) or PrtT protease deficient mutant conidia (PrtT-GC) or inert acrylic 2-4 micron beads (Beads) for 8h Aspergillus fumigatus is the most commonly encountered mold pathogen of humans, predominantly infecting the respiratory system. Colonization and penetration of the lung alveolar epithelium is a key but poorly understood step in the infection process. This study focused on identifying the transcriptional and cell-signaling responses activated in A549 alveolar carcinoma cells incubated in the presence of A. fumigatus wild-type and ΔPrtT protease-deficient germinating conidia and culture filtrates (CF). Microarray analysis of exposed A549 cells identified distinct classes of genes whose expression is altered in the presence of germinating conidia and CF and suggested the involvement of both NFkB and MAPK signaling pathways in mediating the cellular response. Phosphoprotein analysis of A549 cells confirmed that JNK and ERK1/2 are phosphorylated in response to CF treatment in a protease-dependent manner. Inhibition of JNK or ERK1/2 kinase activity substantially decreased CF-induced cell damage, including cell peeling, actin-cytoskeleton damage, and reduction in metabolic activity and necrotic death. These results suggest that inhibition of MAPK-mediated host responses to treatment with A. fumigatus CF decreases cellular damage, a finding with possible clinical implications.
