Project description:Analysis of gene-expression profiles by microarrays can be very useful to characterize new potential candidate genes, key regulatory networks, and to define phenotypes or molecular signatures to improve the diagnosis or classification of the disease. We have used this approach in the study of one of the major causes of allergic diseases in Mediterranean countries, the olive pollen response, in order to find differential molecular markers among five clinical groups, Non-allergic, Asymptomatic, Allergic but not to olive pollen, Non-treated, olive pollen allergic patients and Olive pollen allergic patients (under specific-immunotherapy). The results of gene-expression by principal components analysis (PCA) clearly showed five clusters of samples that correlated with the five clinical groups. Analysis of differential gene-expression by multiple testing, and functional analysis by KEGG and Gene-Ontology revealed differential genes and pathways among the 5 clinical groups. The study population comprised 28 subjects, selected from a previous immunological study (Aguerri et al. Eur. J. Inflammation 2012, in press), from Andalusia, who were recruited in 2 olive pollen exposure situations: during (April-June) and outside the pollen season (October-December). We established 5 groups, and 6 subjects from each group were selected for gene-expression analysis: Group 1, non-allergic subjects; Group 2, asymptomatic subjects (diagnosed with olive pollen allergy by skin testing, with no seasonal respiratory symptoms [rhinitis and/or asthma], and who consulted for adverse reaction to drugs); Group 3, patients who were allergic, but not to olive pollen; Group 4, non-treated olive pollenM-bM-^@M-^Sallergic; and Group 5, olive pollenM-bM-^@M-^Sallergic patients (receiving olive pollenM-bM-^@M-^Sspecific immunotherapy).The subjects were unrelated and recruited at the Allergy Service of 4 hospitals in Andalusia (Granada, JaM-CM-)n, Sevilla, and MM-CM-!laga). Olive pollenM-bM-^@M-^Sallergic patients fulfilled the following criteria: seasonal rhinitis and/or asthma from April to June, a positive skin prick test result for O. europaea pollen extract (ALK AbellM-CM-3, Madrid, Spain), and no previous immunotherapy. Informed consent was obtained from each subject. Ethical approval for the study was obtained from the Ethical and Research Committee of the participating hospitals. PBMCs were isolated from heparin-containing peripheral blood samples taken during and outside pollen season, by gradient centrifugation on Lymphoprep (Comercial Rafer, Zaragoza, Spain) following the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions.

Project description:Analysis of gene-expression profiles with microarrays can be very useful to dissect specific responses and to characterize with a global view, new elements for improving the diagnosis, treatment and understanding of allergic diseases. We have used this approach for studying the olive pollen response, taking advantage our previous results of T-cell epitope mapping on Ole e 1 molecule (the major allergen from olive pollen) in order to analyze the stimuli influence on the gene-expression of olive pollen allergic patients. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 6 healthy controls and 6 allergic subjects were stimulated 24 hours with olive pollen stimuli: Ole e 1 molecule and two Ole e 1 peptides previously defined as P2+3 (aa10-31), mainly recognized by non-allergic subjects (possible immunoregulatory epitope) and P10+12+13 (aa90-130), immunodominant T-cell epitope. RNA extracted from basal and stimulated PBMCs was analyzed by HuGeU133 plus 2.0 GeneChip, Affymetrix (38.500genes). After assessment of data quality by standard quality checks and principal components analysis (PCA), differential gene-expression by experimental conditions was performed by multiple testing, using microarrays specific software. Differences in functional analysis were performed by KEGG, for pathways and Gene-Ontology for biological process. The results of gene-expression by PCA showed differential clusters that correlated with the experimental conditions from samples of allergic patients. Analysis of differential gene-expression by multiple testing, and functional analysis by KEGG and Gene-Ontology revealed differential genes and pathways among the 4 experimental conditions.

Project description:The delineation of the olive pollen proteome and its allergogram can improve the clinical management of patients with this pollinosis. We here integrated the recently described wild olive genomic data in a comprehensive proteomic approach to get the annotated olive (Olea europaea) pollen proteome and complete its complex allergogram. Olive pollen proteins were identified by LC-MS/MS using predicted protein sequences from its genome. GO annotation, KEGG Pathway analysis and identification of allergen families were performed by bioinformatics. Recombinant DNA, protein expression and purification, and immunological analyses were used to characterize putative allergens. A total of 1,907 proteins were identified. 60% of the proteins were predicted to possess catalytic activity and be involved in metabolic processes. 203 proteins belonging to 47 allergen families were found, with 37 non-previously described in olive pollen. Of four potential allergens produced in Escherichia coli, a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase -cyclophilin-, masked in the protein extract by the major allergen Ole e 1, was found as a new olive pollen allergen (Ole e 15). 63% of the Ole e 15-sensitized patients were children and showed strong IgE recognition of the allergen. Ole e 15 shared high sequence identity with other plant, animal and fungal cyclophilins and a high IgE cross-reactivity with pollen, plant food and animal extracts. Taken together, the combination of available genomic data with proteomics permitted the profiling of the olive pollen proteome, revealing the spectrum of allergen families and cyclophilin as a new relevant allergen implicated in cross-reactivity.

Project description:Timothy grass (TG) pollen is a common seasonal airborne allergen associated with symptoms ranging from mild rhinitis to severe asthma. The aim of this study was to characterize changes in TG-specific T cell responses as a function of seasonality. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained either during the pollen season or out of season, from allergic individuals and non-allergic controls were stimulated either with TG extract or a pool of previously identified immunodominant antigenic regions. PBMC from in season allergic subjects exhibit higher IL-5 and IL-10 responses compared to out of season donors. In the case of non-allergic subjects, as expected we observed lower IL-5 responses and robust production of IFNγ compared to allergic individuals. Strikingly, non-atopic donors exhibited an opposing pattern with decreased immune reactivity in-season. The broad downregulation in non-allergic donors indicates that healthy individuals are not oblivious to allergen exposure but rather react with an active modulation of the responses following the antigenic stimulus provided during the pollen season. Transcriptomic analysis of allergen-specific T cells defined genes modulated in concomitance with allergen exposure and inhibition of responses in non-allergic donors. Magnitude and functionality of T-helper cell responses differ substantially for in season versus out of season in allergic and non-allergic subjects. The results indicate specific and opposing modulation of immune responses following the antigenic stimulation during the pollen season. This seasonal modulation reflects the enactment of specific molecular programs associated with health and allergic disease.

Project description:Background Atopic diseases, resulting from hypersensitivity to a wide variety of allergens, affect 10-20% of the population. Immunotherapy is an effective treatment for atopic diseases, but its mechanisms are not fully understood. Objective We studied gene expression profiles in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells and examined whether the individuals with allergic rhinitis have a unique gene expression profile and how the immunotherapy affect the gene expression profiles. Method We used cDNA microarray and â??Expression Analysis Systemic Explorerâ?? to examine the gene expression profiles in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of atopic subjects and other groups. Results We identified a highly conserved gene expression profile in atopic subjects that permitted their accurate segregation from control or autoimmune subjects. A major feature of this profile was the under-expression of a variety of genes that encode proteins required for apoptosis and over-expression of genes that encode proteins critical for stress responses and signal transduction. We also identified 563 genes that can segregate individuals with allergic rhinitis based upon receipt of immunotherapy. Conclusion There is a highly conserved gene expression profile in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of individuals with allergic rhinitis. This profile can be used to identify individuals with allergic rhinitis and to evaluate responses to immunotherapy. Quantitative endpoints, such as gene expression, may assist clinicians faced with clinical decisions in the diagnosis of patients and the evaluation of response to therapy. The knowledge of the possible genetic basis for immunotherapy efficacy may also lead to novel therapeutic approaches for atopic diseases.

Project description:Proteins and peptides are minor components of vegetal oils. The presence of these compounds in virgin olive oil was first reported in 2001, but the nature of the olive oil proteome is still a puzzling question for food science researchers. In this project, we have compiled for a first time a comprehensive proteomic dataset of olive fruit and fungal proteins that are present at low but measurable concentrations in a vegetable oil from a crop of great agronomical relevance as olive (Olea europaea L.). Accurate mass nLC-MS data were collected in high definition direct data analysis (HD-DDA) mode using the ion mobility separation step. Protein identification was performed using the Mascot Server v2.2.07 software (Matrix Science) against an ad hoc database made of olive protein entries. Starting from this proteomic record, the impact of these proteins on olive oil stability and quality could be tested. Moreover, the effect of olive oil proteins on human health and their potential use as functional food components could be also evaluated. In addition, this dataset provides a resource for use in further functional comparisons across other vegetable oils, and also expands the proteomic resources to non-model species, thus also allowing further comparative inter-species studies.

Project description:Supplementing diets with olive by-products offers promising benefits for alleviating animal feeding stress without compromising growth. The aim of this study was to explore the transcriptome of backfat in Iberian pigs fed with two diets based in olive by-products. The pigs were divided in three diet groups: a Control (C) group, a dry olive pulp (DOP) group, which was fed a compound feed elaborated with olive pulp, and a wet crude olive cake (WCOC) group, which was fed a compound feed and olive cake silage supplied ad libitum. Subcutaneous fat biopsies were taken, and transcriptome analysis performed. Compared to a C group, we identified 411 and 924 genes as differentially expressed (DEG; q<0.05, Fold Change>1.5) between the DOP and WCOC diets, respectively. In DOP diet, functions related to polysaccharides metabolism were significantly activated, while WCOC exhibited activated biological processes associated with apoptosis and cellular death. Both diets showed inhibition of functions involved in inflammatory and immune responses, as well as reactive oxygen species production, although enriched by different DEGs. Furthermore, in the WCOC diet, functions related to cholesterol and lipid metabolism were suppressed. In both comparisons, the ADIPOQ gene was overexpressed, playing a key role in the majority of affected functions. In conclusion, our findings suggest that olive by-products may significantly influence the health status of animals, offering potential benefits in enhancing their overall well-being.
