Predator-prey interactions between bacteria and the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans via interkingdom signaling molecule indole

ABSTRACT: Indole is an intercellular and interkingdom signaling molecule, which is widespread in diverse ecological niches. Caenorhabditis elegans is a bacterivorous nematode living in soil and compost environments and a useful model host for the study of host-microbe interactions. While various bacteria and some plants produce a large quantity of extracellular indole, little is known about the effects of indole, its derivatives, and indole-producing bacteria on behaviors in C. elegans and animals. Here, we show that C. elegans senses and moves toward indole and indole-producing bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Shigella boydii, Providencia stuartii, and Klebsiella oxytoca, while avoids non-indole producing pathogenic bacteria. It was also found that indole-producing bacteria and non-indole-producing bacteria exert divergent effects on egg-laying behavior of C. elegans via indole. In addition, various indole derivatives also modulate chemotaxis, egg-laying behavior, and survival of C. elegans. In contrast, indole at a high concentration to kill C. elegans that has the ability to detoxify indole via oxidation and glucosylation, indicating predator-prey interactions via a double-edged molecule indole. Transcriptional analysis showed that indole markedly up-regulated gene expression of cytochrome P450 family, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, glutathione S-transferase, which explained well the modification of indole in C. elegans, while down-regulated expression of collagen genes and F-box genes. Our findings suggest that indole and its derivatives are important interkingdom signaling molecules in bacteria-nematode interactions.

C. elegans genomic response to Konza Prairie Soil bacterial environment

Project description:Here we have compared adult wildtype (N2) C. elegans gene expression when grown on different bacterial environments/fod sources in an effort to model naturally occuring nematode-bacteria interactions at the Konza Prairie. We hypothesize that human-induced changes to natural environments, such as the addition of nitrogen fertalizer, have effects on the bacterial community in soils and this drives downstream changes in the structure on soil bacterial-feeding nematode community structure. Here we have used transcriptional profiling to identify candidate genes involved in the interaction of nematodes and bacteria in nature.

Gut microbiota-driven regulation of queen bee ovarian metabolism

Project description:With the global prevalence of Varroa mites, more and more beekeepers resort to confining the queen bee in a queen cage to control mite infestation or to breed superior and robust queen bees. However, the impact of such practices on the queen bee remains largely unknown. Therefore, we subjected the queen bees to a 21-d egg-laying restriction treatment (from the egg stage to the emergence of adult worker bees) and analyzed the queen bees' ovarian metabolites and gut microbiota after 21 d, aiming to assess the queen bee's quality and assist beekeepers in better hive management. Our findings revealed a significant reduction in the relative expression levels of Vg and Hex110 genes in the ovaries of egg-laying-restricted queen bees compared to unrestricted egg-laying queens. The diversity of gut microbiota in the queen bee exhibited a notable decrease, accompanied by corresponding changes in the core bacterial species of the microbial community. Following egg-laying restriction, the activity of the queen bee's ovaries decreased, while the metabolism of glycerophospholipids remained or stored more lipid molecules, awaiting environmental changes for the queen bee to resume egg-laying promptly. Furthermore, we observed that Bombella in the queen bee's gut may regulate the queen's ovarian metabolism through tryptophan metabolism. These findings provide novel insights into the interplay among queen egg-laying, gut microbiota, and ovarian metabolism.

Integrative Analysis of the Ovarian Metabolome and Transcriptome of the Yaoshan Chicken and its Hybrids

Project description:Laying performance is a key factor affecting production efficiency in poultry farming, but its molecular mechanism is still unclear. In this study, Yaoshan chickens, a local breed in Guizhou, China, and commercial chickens (GYR) with higher egg yield after the three-line cross improvement hybridization of Yaoshan chickens were used as animal samples. To explore the regulatory mechanism of the differences in laying performance, RNA-seq and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC‒MS/MS) were used to portray the transcriptional and metabolic profiles of the ovaries of Yaoshan and GYR chickens. At the transcriptional level, 288 differentially expressed genes were upregulated in Yaoshan chickens and 353 differentially expressed genes were upregulated in GYR chickens. In addition, GSEA revealed that ECM-receptor interactions and the TGF-β signalling pathway were inhibited, resulting in increased egg production in GYR chickens. Furthermore, the upregulation of thiamine and carnitine was identified by metabolomic analysis to promote the laying performance of chickens. Finally, comprehensive analyses of the transcriptome and metabolome found that thiamine and carnitine were negatively correlated with ECM-receptor interactions and the TGF-β signalling pathway, which jointly regulate the laying performance of Yaoshan chickens and GYR chickens. In conclusion, our study delineates differences in the transcriptional and metabolic profiles of the ovaries of Yaoshan and GYR chickens during the peak egg production period and provides new hypotheses and clues for further research on poultry egg production performance and the improvement of economic benefits.

Diet specific expression profiles_MA1

Project description:Analysis of wildtype (N2) C. elegans fed different diets: E. coli OP50, E. coli HT115 and Comamonas DA1877 Dietary composition has major effects on physiology. Here we show that developmental rate, reproduction and lifespan are altered in C. elegans fed Comamonas DA1877 relative to those fed a standard E. coli OP50 diet. We identify a set of genes that change in expression in response to this diet, and use the promoter of one of these (acdh-1) as a dietary sensor. Remarkably, the effects on transcription and development occur even when Comamonas DA1877 is diluted with another diet, suggesting that Comamonas DA1877 generates a signal that is sensed by the nematode. Surprisingly, the developmental effect is independent from TOR and insulin signaling. Rather, Comamonas DA1877 affects cyclic gene expression during molting, likely through the nuclear hormone receptor NHR-23. Altogether, our findings indicate that different bacteria elicit various responses via distinct mechanisms, which has implications for diseases such as obesity and the interactions between the human microbiome and intestinal cells. 3 biological replicates for each condition, OP50 is reference sample

The effect of IAN on E. coli O157:H7 EHEC biofilm formation

Project description:Intercellular signal indole and its derivative hydroxyindoles inhibit Escherichia coli biofilm and diminish Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence. However, indole and bacterial indole derivatives were unstable in microbial community due to the widespread of diverse oxygenases that could quickly degrade them. Hence, we sought to identify novel non-toxic, stable, and potent indole derivatives from plant sources for inhibiting biofilm formation of E. coli O157:H7 and P. aeruginosa PAO1. Here, plant auxin 3-indolylacetonitrile (IAN) was found to inhibit biofilm formation of both E. coli O157:H7 and P. aeruginosa without affecting its growth. IAN inhibited biofilms more effectively than indole for both E. coli and P. aeruginosa. Additionally, IAN decreased the production of virulence factor pyocyanin in P. aeruginosa. DNA microarray analysis indicated that IAN repressed genes involved in curli formation and glycerol metabolism, while IAN induced indole-related genes and prophage genes in E. coli. It appears that IAN inhibits biofilm formation of E. coli by reducing curli formation and inducing indole production. Furthermore, unlike bacterial indole derivatives, plant-originated IAN was stable in the presence of either E. coli or P. aeruginosa.
