Streptococcus suis 05ZY: control vs contact with hBMEC 1 h

ABSTRACT: The interactions of Streptocococcus suis (S.suis) with human microvascular endothelial cells (hBMEC) are important process for S.suis passage across human blood brain barrier (BBB). S.suis has evolved precise mechanisms to alter gene expression depending on the distinct challenges posed by particular disease sites. Herein, a whole-genome DNA microarray was used to investigate the change of gene expression profile of S.suis after contact with hBMEC 1 h. comparison of RNA isolated from hBMEC-associated S.suis with RNA derived from control bacteria revealed significant differential changes for 219 S.suis genes including 131 up-regulated genes and 88 down-regulated genes at 1 h post infection.

Project description:The blood brain barrier (BBB) acts both a physical as well as a metabolic barrier isolating the Central Nervous System (CNS) from systemic circulation, blocking intravascular toxin entry and promoting toxic substance elimination to blood stream. The BBB is formed by four main cellular elements: endothelial cells, astrocyte end-feet, microglial cells, and pericytes. There is strong evidence that astrocytes are able to regulate the phenotypes of endothelial cells by directly contacting or secreting a range of chemical agents, resulting in BBB permeability changes and so on. Conversely, endothelium-derived leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) has been shown to induce astrocytic differentiation, from studies in normal condition of cell culture. However, in pathological conditions, the specific regulatory mechanism that endothelial cells exert on astrocytes is still less known. In our recently study, a transwell-based, endothelial-astrocyte co-culture model was established to investigate this regulatory relationship in bacterial infection. An extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia. coli strain was used to infect human brain microvascular endothelial cells (hBMEC) planted in the upper chamber, astrocytes co-cultured in the bottom well were actived without direct contact with bacteria or endothelial cell. The transcription levels of some chemokines and cytokines such as TNF-α and CXCL10 were significantly upregulated. We hypothesized that the secreted proteins from endothelial cells is the main cause of astrocyte activation and the culture supernatant of hBMEC infected by E.coli was obtained to perform the mass spectrometry analysis. In summary, the proteomic identification results showed that 2,692 common proteins were identified in the two groups of control and infected hBMEC, including 140 differentially expressed proteins. The bioinformatics analysis indicated that differentially expressed proteins are mainly classified into structural molecular activity and constituent of ribosome. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that many proteins are involved in focal adhesion as well as a bunch of signaling pathways, PI3K-Akt, Rap1, Ras, MAPK and NF-kappaB signaling pathways, for example. The present study laid an important foundation for the subsequent study of secreted proteins of hBMEC in bacterial infections.
