Project description:We worked with microarrys analysis in presence of 3-oxo-C12-HSL molecule to analyze the profile of the genes implicated in the Quorum Quenching network in A.baumannii clinical strains. Interestingly, only 13 genes were overexpressed under 3-oxo-C12-HSL molecule being the most level a gene which encodes an Alpha/beta hydrolase enzyme (5.01). The 46.15% of the genes overexpressed were implicated in the synthesis of the acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs).

Project description:Positional RNA-sequencing of isolated Hydra body pieces and RNA-sequencing of fully regenerated Hydra animal was combined with RNA-sequencing of actively regenerating spheroids (see submission E-MTAB-9672) in order to elucidate the role of tissue stretching on regeneration and body pattern formation.

Project description:Hydra has long been studied for its remarkable ability to regenerate its head. Previous studies focusing on molecular mechanisms of axial patterning and head regeneration using a candidate gene approach have revealed a central role for the canonical Wnt pathway. We performed a global gene expression analysis during Hydra magnipapillata head regeneration using RNA-seq to identify additional genes that are transcriptionally regulated during the regeneration of the head organizer in hydra. Differential expression analysis revealed a set of 4,978 genes with significant changes during a 48-hour head regeneration time-course that includes many key genes in the Wnt, TGF-M-NM-2/BMP and MAP kinase pathways. We observed the differential regulation of several genes that are part of the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in bilaterians such as Snail. We assembled 806 novel putative lincRNAs with 176 of these are differentially expressed during the time course. We observed the coordinated transcriptional regulation of several factors that regulate the effective pool of free M-NM-2-catenin that together synergize to increase the amount of M-NM-2-catenin available for transcriptional regulation of downstream genes. The differential expression of Snail and some of its interacting regulators and downstream targets suggests that a partial-EMT-like response is involved in hydra head regeneration. This time-course is a valuable resource for the study of the transcriptional dynamics of head regeneration in hydra. mRNA profiling of regenerating head from 6 time points post bisection of Hydra head (H. magnipapillata), generated by deep sequencing, in duplicates, using Illumina HiSeq2500.

Project description:The molecular nature of malignant tumors is well studied in vertebrates, while their evolutionary origin remains unknown. In particular, there is no evidence for naturally occurring malignant tumors in pre-bilaterian animals, such as sponges and cnidarians. This is somewhat surprising given that recent computational studies have predicted that all metazoans are prone to develop tumors. Here we provide first evidence for naturally occurring tumors in Hydra oligactis. Histological, cellular and molecular data reveal that these tumors are transplantable and caused by differentiation arrest of female gametes. Growth of tumor cells is independent from the cellular environment. Tumor bearing polyps have significantly reduced fitness. In addition, Hydra tumors show a greatly altered transcriptome that mimics expression shifts in vertebrate cancers. Therefore, this study shows, that invasive tumors have deep roots in animal phylogeny, and that early branching animals may be informative in revealing the fundamental mechanisms of tumorigenesis. We compared four samples of Hydra oligactis tumor-bearing animals to three samples of female polyps undergoing oogenesis and six samples of female asexual control polyps

Project description:The human opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa orchestrates the expression of many genes in a cell density-dependent manner by using a molecular communication system referred to as quorum sensing (QS). This bacterium uses an intricate network of regulators and QS molecules known as autoinducers. Among these autoinducers are two acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL) involved in QS circuits which modulate virulence factors production, biofilm formation, and antimicrobial sensitivity. Disrupting QS, a strategy referred to as quorum quenching (QQ), is a promising approach to modulate virulence while not directly challenging bacterial survival. For P. aeruginosa, QQ can be achieved using exogenous AHL-degrading lactonases. However, the importance of enzyme specificity on quenching efficacy has never been investigated. Here, we used two lactonases both targeting the signal molecules N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-L-Homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C12 HSL) and butyryl-homoserine lactone (C4 HSL) albeit with different efficacy on C4 HSL. Interestingly, both lactonases similarly decreased the concentrations of AHL and comparably impacted the expression of AHL-based circuits. Conversely, strong variations were observed in Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal (PQS) regulation. Both lactonases were then found to decrease virulence factors production and biofilm formation in vitro, albeit with different efficiencies. Unexpectedly, only the lactonase with substrate preference for 3-oxo-C12 HSL was able to inhibit P. aeruginosa pathogenicity in vivo in an amoeba infection model. Similarly, large variations between lactonases were observed in proteins involved in antibiotic resistance, biofilm formation, virulence and diverse cellular mechanisms. This global analysis provides the first evidence that QQ enzyme specificity is crucial to modulate QS-associated behavior in P. aeruginosa PA14.

Project description:Green hydra (Hydra viridissima) harbors endosymbiotic Chlorella and have established a mutual relation. To identify the host hydra genes involved in the specific symbiotic relationship, transcriptomes of intact H. viridissima colonized with symbiotic Chlorella strain A99, aposymbiotic H.viridissima and H. viridissima artificially infected with other symbiotic Chlorella were compared by microarray analysis. The results indicated that genes involved in nutrition supply to Chlorella were upregulated in the symbiotic hydra. In addition, it was induced by supply of photosynthates from the symbiont to the host, suggesting cooperative metabolic interaction between the host and the symbiotic algae.
