Project description:Female mice aged 6-7 weeks old were infected with the T. cruzi H1 strain. Mice were randomly divided into groups with 15 animals in each, with age matched naïve mice included as controls. Approximately 75 days post infection, mice were randomly divided into groups and treated with different treatment combinations: BNZ + Tc24 therapeutic vaccine + the STAT-3 inhibitor TTI-101, BNZ + Tc24 vaccine, and BNZ or TTI alone. Mice were humanely euthanized at 50, 75, 120 or 142 days post infection (DPI), and hearts samples were collected, divided into left atrium (LA), right atrium (RA), left ventricle top (LVT), left ventricle bottom (LVB), right ventricle top (RVT), right ventricle bottom (RVB). Heart tissue samples were extracted by 1:1 (v/v) methanol to water for aqueous phase and 3:1 (v/v) dichloromethane to methanol for organic phase. LC-MS/MS data acquisition was performed on a Q Exactive Plus Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer coupled to a Thermo Scientific Vanquish UHPLC with 1.7 um 100 Å Kinetex C8 column at 40°C. Mobile phase A was water with 0.1% (v/v) formic acid and mobile phase B was acetonitrile with 0.1% (v/v) formic acid.

Project description:Pretreated human follicular fluid was prepared for targeted metabolomics experiments. For this purpose, 12-point standard calibration curves in the respective range with reference material were measured, and the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) for each neurotransmitter under investigation were calculated. LC-MS/MS was conducted by an ultra-performance liquid chromatography method using a Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.7 µm, Waters, USA). The Waters acquisition UPLC was coupled to an API 4000 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (AB SCIEX, USA). The mobile phase A buffer was 10% methanol in water (containing 0.1% formic acid), and the mobile phase B buffer was 50% methanol in water (containing 0.1% formic acid). The LC gradient elution was at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min at 0-8.0 min and 0.4 ml/min at 8.0-17.5 min, then 10%-30% B at 0-6.5 min; 30%-100% B at 6.5-7 min; 100% B at 7-14min; and 100%-10% B at 14-17.5min. The injection volume was 5 µl and the column temperature was set to 40 °C. Twenty-three metabolites (Ach: Acetylcholine chloride; Gln: Glutamine; Glu: Glutamate; His: L-Histidine; NE: norepinephrine; Tyr:Tyrosine; Trp:Tryptophan; Kyn: Kynurenine; GABA: 4-Aminobutyric acid;HisA:Histamine; PA:Picolinic acid;TyrA:Tyramine;DA:Hydroxytyramine hydrochloride; TrpA:Tryptamine;5-HT:Serotonin hydrochloride;E:Adrenaline hydrochloride;KynA:Kynurenic acid;5-HIAA:5-Hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid;DOPA:Levodopa;XA:Xanthurenic acid;VWA:Vanillymandelic Acid; 5-HTTP:5-Hydroxytryptophan;MT:Melatonine)were simultaneously reported in LC-MS/MS multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Data analysis was performed with Analyst 1.6 software.

Project description:The industrial solvent trichloroethylene (TCE) produces a marked formic aciduria in male and female F344 rats and in male C57Bl mice following single or multiple dosing. The two major metabolites of TCE formed by cytochromes P450 metabolism also produce formic aciduria. The quantity of formic acid excreted was about 2-fold higher following trichloroacetic acid (TCA) compared to trichloroethanol (TCE-OH) or TCE, at similar doses of 16mg/kg/day for 3 days. Prior treatment of male F344 rats with 1-aminobenzotriazole a cytochrome P450 inhibitor, followed by TCE, completely prevented the formic aciduria but had no effect on formic acid excretion produced by TCA, suggesting TCA is the proximate metabolite producing this response. Metabolism of formic acid is largely controlled by the vitamin B12 –dependent methionine salvage pathway. Transcriptomic analysis on the liver of rats dosed with 16mg/kg/day TCE for three days when compared to control liver showed nine differentially expressed genes, of particular interest was the down regulation of LMBRD1 involved in the conversion of vitamin B12 into one of two molecules, methylcobalamin (CH3Cbl) or S-adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl). Administration of CH3Cbl or hydroxocobalamin for 3 days to rats given a single dose of TCE, lead to a reduction in formic acid in their urine. Similarly, rats given TCE followed by L-methionine for 3 days excreted less formic acid in their urine. These findings suggest an effect on the vitamin B12 –dependent methionine salvage pathway. This was supported by the finding that hepatic methionine synthase, which converts homocysteine to methionine, was inhibited following three large daily dose of TCE. We propose that TCE metabolites interact with the vitamin B12 -dependent methionine salvage pathway leading to tetrahydrofolate deficiency and increased excretion of formic acid in rat urine.

Project description:Chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy is one of the leading causes of heart failure in Latin American countries, being associated with intense inflammatory response and fibrosis. We have previously shown that bone marrow mononuclear cell (BMC) transplantation improves inflammation, fibrosis and ventricular diameter in hearts of mice with chronic Chagas’ disease. Here we investigated alterations of gene expression in the hearts of chronic chagasic mice submitted or not to BMC therapy. C57Bl/6 mice chronically infected with T. cruzi (6 months) were transplanted with BMC or saline i.v. and sacrificed 2 months later. RNA was extracted from the hearts of normal controls, chagasic and BMC transplanted mice and microarray analysis was performed using MO30k oligonucleotide arrays. Out of the 9390 unigenes quantified in all samples, 1702 had their expression altered in chronic chagasic hearts compared to those of normal mice. Major categories of significantly upregulated genes were related to inflammation, fibrosis and immune responses, while genes involved in mitochondrion function were downregulated. When BMC-treated chagasic hearts were compared to infected mice, 1631 (96%) of the alterations detected in infected hearts were not found, although an additional 109 genes were altered by treatment, indicating a remarkable 84% transcriptomic recovery. Immunofluorescence and morphometric analyses confirmed the effects of BMC therapy in the pattern of inflammatory-immune response and expression of adhesion molecules. Our results demonstrate important immunomodulatory effects of BMC therapy in chagasic cardiomyopathy and indicate potentially relevant factors involved in the pathogenesis of the disease that may provide new therapeutic targets. We compared RNA samples extracted from whole hearts of 4 control, 4 chagasic and 4 BMC-treated chagasic mice by analyzing hybridization to microarrays printed by Duke University (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gove/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GPL8938) spotted with MO30k mouse Operon version 3.0 70-mer oligonucleotides. The hybridization protocol (see Soares et al, 2010), the slide type and the scanner settings were uniform throughout the entire experiment to minimize the technical noise. Briefly, 20 ug total RNA extracted in Trizol from each of the twelve samples (individual hearts) was reverse transcribed in the presence of fluorescent Alexa Fluor® 555- and Alexa Fluor®647-aha-dUTPs (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) to obtain labeled cDNA. Red and green labeled samples of biological replicas were then co-hybridized (“multiple yellow” strategy, 22) overnight at 50° C. After washing (0.1% SDS and 1% SSC) to remove the non-hybridized cDNA, each array was scanned at 630V (635 nm) and 580V (532 nm) with GenePix 4100B scanner (Axon Instruments, Union City, CA) and images were primarily analyzed with GenePixPro 6.0 (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA). Microarray data were processed as described previously (Soares et al, 2010). A gene was considered as significantly up- or down-regulated when comparing four hearts from one condition to those from another if the absolute fold change was >1.5x and the p-vlaue of the Sutdent”s heteroscedastic t-test of equality of the means of the distributions with a Bonferroni-type adjustment for each redundancy group (set of spots probing the same gene) was <0.05.

Project description:Samples were subjected to LC–MS analysis using a dual pressure LTQ-Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) connected to an electrospray ion source (Thermo Fisher Scientific) as recently described (PMID: 23017020). Peptide separation was carried out on an EASY nLC-1000 system (Thermo Fisher Scientific) equipped with a RP-HPLC column (75 μm × 30 cm) packed in-house with C18 resin (ReproSil-Pur C18–AQ, 1.9 μm resin, Dr. Maisch GmbH). A step-wise gradient from 95% solvent A (0.1% formic acid) and 5% solvent B (80% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid) to 50% solvent B over 60 min at a flow rate of 0.2 μl/min was used. Data acquisition mode was set to obtain one high resolution MS scan in the FT part of the mass spectrometer at a resolution of 240,000 full width at half-maximum (at m/z 400) followed by 20 MS/MS scans (TOP20) in the linear ion trap of the most intense ions using rapid scan speed. Unassigned and singly charged ions were excluded from analysis. Dynamic exclusion duration was set to 30 seconds.
