Project description:BACKGROUND: The release of small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) has been reported in parasitic nematodes, trematodes and cestodes of medical and veterinary importance. However, little is known regarding the diversity and composition of sRNAs released by different lifecycle stages and the portion of sRNAs that persist in host tissues during filarial infection. This information is relevant to understanding potential roles of sRNAs in parasite-to-host communication, as well as to inform on the location within the host and time point at which they can be detected. METHODOLOGY & PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We have used small RNA (sRNA) sequencing analysis to identify sRNAs in replicate samples of the excretory-secretory (ES) products of developmental stages of the filarial nematode Litomosoides sigmodontis in vitro and compare this to the parasite-derived sRNA detected in host tissues. We show that all L. sigmodontis developmental stages release RNAs in vitro, including ribosomal RNA fragments, 5’-derived tRNA fragments (5’-tRFs) and, to a lesser extent, microRNAs (miRNAs). The gravid adult females (gAF) produce the largest diversity and abundance of miRNAs in the ES compared to the adult males or microfilariae. Analysis of sRNAs detected in serum and macrophages from infected animals reveals that the class of parasite miRNAs are preferentially detected in vivo, compared to their low levels in the ES products, and identifies miR-92-3p and miR-71-5p as L. sigmodontis miRNAs that are stably detected in host cells in vivo. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that gravid adult female worms secrete the largest diversity of extracellular sRNAs compared to adult males or microfilariae. We further show differences in the parasite sRNA biotype distribution detected in vitro versus in vivo. We identify macrophages as one reservoir for parasite sRNA during infection, and confirm the presence of parasite miRNAs and tRNAs in host serum during patent infection.

Project description:Microarray analysis coupled with quantitative RT-PCR analysis identified seven genes (Fgd5, Gulo, Phex, Serpina5, Sfrp4, Kif26b and Tdgf1) of which the mRNA expression levels in ArKO ovaries were significantly different from those in the WT ovaries in the basal state, and were not normalized by E2 supplementation

Project description:Malaria parasites go through major transitions during their complex life cycle, yet the underlying differentiation pathways remain obscure. Here we apply single cell transcriptomics to unravel events that initiate sexual development in preparation for transmission of the parasite from human to mosquito. This proof-of-concept study provides a template to capture transcriptional diversity in heterogeneous parasite populations, with major implications for our understanding of parasite biology and the ongoing malaria elimination campaign.

Project description:Reduced parasitic infection rates in the developed world are suspected to underlie the rising prevalence of autoimmune disorders. However, the long-term evolutionary consequences of decreased parasite exposure on an immune system are not well understood. We used the Mexican tetra Astyanax mexicanus to understand how loss of parasite diversity influences the evolutionary trajectory of the vertebrate immune system, by comparing river with cave morphotypes. Here, we present field data affirming a strong reduction in parasite diversity in the cave ecosystem, and show that cavefish immune cells display a more sensitive pro-inflammatory response towards bacterial endotoxins. Surprisingly, other innate cellular immune responses, such as phagocytosis, are drastically decreased in cavefish. Using two independent single-cell approaches, we identified a shift in the overall immune cell composition in cavefish as the underlying cellular mechanism, indicating strong differences in the immune investment strategy. While surface fish invest evenly into the innate and adaptive immune systems, cavefish shifted immune investment to the adaptive immune system, and here, mainly towards specific T-cell populations that promote homeostasis. Additionally, inflammatory responses and immunopathological phenotypes in visceral adipose tissue are drastically reduced in cavefish. Our data indicate that long-term adaptation to low parasite diversity coincides with a more sensitive immune system in cavefish, which is accompanied by a reduction in the immune cells that play a role in mediating the pro-inflammatory response.

Project description:Vitamin C (ascorbate) is a crucial antioxidant and an essential cofactor of biosynthetic and regulatory enzymes. Unlike humans, mice can synthesize vitamin C thanks to the key enzyme gulonolactone oxidase (Gulo). In the present study, we used the Gulo-/- mouse model, which cannot synthesize their own ascorbate to determine the impact of this vitamin on both the transcriptomics and proteomics profiles in the liver. The study included Gulo-/- mouse groups treated with either sub-optimal or optimal vitamin C concentrations in drinking water. We found a distinctive difference in the mRNA and protein profiles as a function of sex between all the mouse groups. Despite this sexual dimorphism, Spearman correlation analyses were conducted to divulge which transcripts and proteins correlated with hepatic vitamin C concentrations in both females and males. Such analysis on transcriptomics data from females and males revealed changes in a wide array of biological processes involved in glucose, lipid, steroid, and glutathione metabolisms as well as in acute-phase response. Furthermore, although several proteins of the mitochondrial complex III significantly correlated with vitamin C concentrations, their corresponding transcripts did not correlate with vitamin C in both females and males. Thus, this side-by-side comparison between transcriptome and proteome supported the view that post-transcriptional processes play a major role in the regulation of cellular respiration in the liver upon vitamin C deficiency. Our findings suggest that transcriptome profiling alone provides an incomplete picture of molecular changes associated with vitamin C deficiency in the liver of mice and examination of changes in protein abundances is essential to unveil variations that are not transcriptionally regulated.
