FoxA RNAi RNA-seq in adult males and females of Schistosoma mansoni

ABSTRACT: Schistosome foxA is enriched in the parasites' stem/progenitor cells and the esophageal gland, an anterior digestive organ required for their survival. However, the molecular makeup of the esophageal gland remains unclear. Here, we took a comparative transcriptomics approach using foxA knockdown adult parasites. Differential expression analysis reveals 37 genes commonly downregulated in foxA knockdown males and females, most of which show high enrichment in the esophageal gland.

Quantitative Proteomics of Enriched Esophageal and Gut Tissues from the Human Blood Fluke Schistosoma mansoni

Project description:Schistosomes are blood-dwelling helminth parasites causing a debilitating disease in the tropics. Major challenges to control persist and vaccines would provide an additional tool, but their development has been problematic. During the self-cure response of Rhesus macaques, antibodies target proteins from the tegument, gut and esophagus, the last of which is the least investigated. We developed a dissection technique that permitted comparative proteomics on the schistosome esophagus and gut. A shotgun analysis applied to male heads identified 13 MEG proteins, eleven of which were uniquely located in the esophageal glands. Antigenic variation by alternative splicing of MEG proteoforms was confirmed together with a specialised machinery for protein glycosylation in the esophagus. Moreover some gastrodermal secretions were highly enriched in the gut, while others were more uniformly distributed, potentially as markers of lysosomal activity. Collectively, our findings provide a more rational, better-oriented selection of schistosome vaccine candidates in the context of a proven model of protective immunity.

The Schistosoma mansoni nuclear receptor FTZ-F1 maintains esophageal gland function via direct transcriptional regulation of meg-8.3

Project description:The schistosome homolog of ftz-f1 is a nuclear receptor. In order to understand the function of Smftz-f1, we performed RNAseq with samples taken on two days, Day 5 and Day 9, on either control (RNAi) or Smftz-f1 (RNAi) parasites to see the transcriptional consequences of Smftz-f1 RNAi and to find potential transcriptional targets.

Absolute Quantification of Schistosoma mansoni Esophageal Gland Products

Project description:Schistosomes are blood-dwelling helminth parasites causing a debilitating disease in the tropics. Major challenges to control the disease persist and vaccines would provide an additional tool, but their development has been problematic. Rhesus macaques can self-cure following schistosome infection, generating antibodies that target schistosome proteins from the tegument, gut and esophagus, the last of which is the least investigated. We developed a dissection technique that permitted comparative proteomics of the schistosome esophagus and gut for detection of secreted antigens. Shotgun proteome analysis of the male schistosomes esophagus identified 13 proteins encoded by microexon genes (MEG), eleven of which were uniquely located in the esophageal glands. Based on this and transcriptome information, a QconCAT was designed for absolute quantification of selected targets. MEGs 12, 4.2, 4.1 and Venom allergen-like protein 7 were the mostly abundant, spanning over 245-6 million copies per cell, while aspartyl protease, palmitoyl thioesterase and a galactosyl transferase were present at <1 million cpc. Antigenic variation by alternative splicing of MEG proteins was confirmed together with a specialised machinery for protein glycosylation in the esophagus. Moreover, some gastrodermal secretions were highly enriched in the gut, while others were more uniformly distributed throughout the parasite, potentially indicating lysosomal activity. Collectively, our findings provide a more rational, better-oriented selection of schistosome vaccine candidates in the context of a proven model of protective immunity.

Bexkens2024 - Schistosoma mansoni glycolysis

Project description:A kinetic model of S. mansoni glycolysis in which we can vary the allosteric regulation on lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Because not enough kinetic data are available for all the schistosome enzymes to construct a complete schistosome glycolysis model de novo, we here adjusted the well-established glycolysis model of the eukaryotic microbe Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Teusink et al., 2000; van Eunen et al., 2012; van Heerden et al., 2014). We removed reactions from the yeast model that are not used in schistosomes and added glycogen metabolism, a Krebs cycle, respiration and an allosterically regulated LDH that was parameterized on multiple in vitro kinetic data sets for schistosome LDH.
