Project description:Fungal diseases are critical burdens on the global healthcare system, infecting over 25% of the world’s population. For the opportunistic fungal pathogen, Cryptococcus neoformans, infection leads to cryptococcosis; a disease enabled by elaboration of sophisticated virulence factors, including polysaccharide capsule, melanin, thermotolerance, and extracellular enzymes in the presence of the host. Conversely, the host protects itself from fungal invasion by regulating and sequestering transition metals (e.g., iron, zinc, copper) important for microbial growth and survival. Building upon knowledge of zinc transport regulation at the transcriptional level, here, we explore the intricate relationship between zinc availability and fungal virulence via mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics. We observe distinct protein-level responses to zinc-limited and -excess conditions through a shift of the proteome profile towards stress response and metal acquisition, including the upregulation of the zinc transporter, ZIP1. In addition, we reveal a novel connection among zinc availability, protein folding, capsule production, and virulence through the detection of a Wos2-like ortholog in the secretome under replete conditions. Overall, we provide new biological insight into cellular remodeling at the protein level of C. neoformans under regulated zinc conditions and uncover a novel connection between zinc availability and fungal virulence. These findings support the development of new antifungal strategies focused on the enhancement of nutritional immunity within the host.

Project description:Steroids play a broad and vital role in regulation of gene expression, secondary sexual characteristics, maturation, reproduction, and neurological functions; but an imbalance in steroid metabolism is also linked to development and progression of many diseases including autism. Prenatal stress of different nature has been demonstrated to affect both the mother and the offspring. Adverse nutritional conditions during gestation can impair the maternal hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) and expose the fetus to high levels of glucocorticoids (GC). Evenwhen GC are required for normal brain development; an increased exposure of the fetus to GC as a consequence of prenatal stress can affect fetal hypothalamic-pituitary-gonad axis (HPG) development, impair neurogenesis, and have a long term impact on the offsprings mental health. Decreased zinc availability can occur during pregnancy as a consequence of different conditions (nutritional deficiency, infections, diabetes, alcohol consumption, and exposure to certain toxicants). Importantly, several of these gestational conditions have been linked to autism. In fact, alterations in maternal zinc homeostasis upon exposure to select environmental stressors (e.g. the phthalate plasticizer bis-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP)) that have become increasingly common since the industrial revolution may underlie the recent rise in the incidence of autism.Alterations in maternal zinc homeostasis could expose the fetus to high GC concentrations secondary to a high maternal GC production and/or to a decreased capacity of the placenta to metabolize GC to inactive metabolites. The overall goal of this proposal is to investigate if alterations in zinc homeostasis during gestation triggered by either a marginal zinc nutrition or exposure to an environmental pollutant (the phthalate plasticizer bis-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP)) can impair maternal and fetal endocrine signaling leading to impaired fetal brain development.

Project description:For GC-MS analysis, plant material was extracted as following: 50 mg of frozen material was crushed and extracted with 700 uL of pre-cooled methanol (-20oC). Were added 60 uL of adonitol (0.2 mg mL-1, internal standard), with the mixture being centrifuged (10 min at 11000 g) and the supernatant transferred to glasses tubes to add chloroform (375 uL at -20oC) and ultrapure water (750 uL at 4oC), with the polar and non-polar phases being collected separately. The non-polar phase was derivatized with 50 uL of pyridine and 50 uL of BSTFA (N,O-bis-(trimethylsilyl)-trifluoroacetamide) for 1 h at 70oC; 5 uL of tridecanoic acid (2 mg mL-1) was used as internal standard.
The non-polar phase was analyzed by GC-MS equipped with an HP5-MS capillary column (30 m, 0.25 mm, 0.25 um). An initial column temperature was adjusted to 100oC for 5 min, and increasing at a rate of 5oC min-1 to a final temperature of 320oC, with a total run time of 49 min. 1 uL of injection volume with helium as a carrier gas. In both analyses a blank was injected in each 15 samples.

Project description:How cells safeguard essential zinc-dependent functions during zinc deficiency is poorly understood. A long-debated strategy is whether soluble metal-trafficking chaperones exist to prioritize specific zinc-dependent proteins. We identified a eukaryotic family of metallochaperones that physically interacts with zinc-dependent methionine aminopeptidase type I (MAP1) in human and yeast. Deletion of the yeast metallochaperone-encoding gene NMC1 (formerly YNR029c) leads to a zinc-deficiency growth defect and defective initiator methionine cleavage caused by loss of Map1p activity. To better understand the observed fitness defects due to the lack of NMC1 under zinc deficiency, we used proteomics with Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) quantitation derived from WT, nmc1Delta, and map2Delta nmc1Delta strains grown in zinc-limited (1 uM) or zinc-replete (100 uM) conditions. Proteomics reveal global impacts due to the loss of NMC1 and Map1p function, including mis-regulation of the Zap1p regulon, and suggests that Nmc1p is required to avoid a compounding effect of Map1p dysfunction on cell survival during zinc deficiency.

Abstract:
Zinc is essential for life, but toxic in excess. Thus all cells must control their internal zinc concentration. We used a systems approach, alternating rounds of experiments and models, to further elucidate the zinc control systems in Escherichia coli. We measured the response to zinc of the main specific zinc import and export systems in the wild type, and a series of deletion mutant strains. We interpreted these data with a detailed mathematical model and Bayesian model fitting routines. There are three key findings: First, that alternate, non-inducible importers and exporters are important. Second, that an internal zinc reservoir is essential for maintaining the internal zinc concentration. Third, our data fitting led us to propose that the cells mount a heterogeneous response to zinc: some respond effectively, while others die or stop growing. In a further round of experiments we demonstrated lower viable cell counts in the mutant strain tested exposed to excess zinc, consistent with this hypothesis. A stochastic model simulation demonstrated considerable fluctuations in the cellular levels of the ZntA exporter protein, reinforcing this proposal. We hypothesise that maintaining population heterogeneity could be a bet-hedging response allowing a population of cells to survive in varied and fluctuating environments.

Project description:We evaluated the intestinal responses of pigs under zinc restriction and under different zinc sources through RNA-seq of ileal samples. We identified changes in genes related to zinc transport, immune response, cell proliferation, DNA damage and stress resposne. Our findings demonstrate that swine intestine is responsive to zinc restriction and can be a model sentinel tissue for human zinc deficiency. Further research is needed to define the intestinal responses to organic and inorganic zinc sources.
