Two of a kind: Transmissible Schwann cell cancers in the endangered Tasmanian devil.

ABSTRACT: Devil facial tumour disease 1 and 2 (DFT1 and DFT2) are two genetically distinct transmissible cancers endangering the survival of the Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii). DFT1 first arose from a cell of the Schwann cell lineage, however, the tissue-of-origin of the recently discovered DFT2 cancer remains unknown. Here we have performed mRNA and protein expression analyses to show that variation in expression patterns between DFT1 and DFT2 tumours is low. Furthermore, DFT2 cells express a range of markers associated with Schwann cell differentiation, suggesting a similar tissue-of-origin to DFT1 tumours. These findings suggest that devils may be predisposed to transmissible cancers of Schwann cell origin. The emergence of these two unique cancers presents an unprecedented opportunity to gain insight into cancer development in animal species.

The Tasmanian devil transcriptome reveals Schwann cell origins of a clonally transmissible cancer (small RNA sequencing)

Project description:The Tasmanian devil, a marsupial carnivore, is endangered due to the emergence of a clonally transmissible cancer known as Devil Facial Tumor Disease (DFTD). This fatal cancer is clonally derived and is an allograft transmitted between devils by biting. We performed a large-scale genetic analysis of DFTD with microsatellite genotyping, mitochondrial genome analysis, as well as deep sequencing of the DFTD transcriptome and miRNAs. These studies confirm that DFTD is a monophyletic clonally transmissible tumor, and suggest that the disease is of Schwann cell origin. On the basis of these results we have generated a diagnostic marker for DFTD, and identify a suite of genes of relevance to DFTD pathology and transmission. We provide a genomic dataset for the Tasmanian devil, which is applicable to cancer diagnosis, disease evolution and conservation biology. This submission contains only small RNA sequence data from this study. Small RNA (18 - 24 nt) sequences from 15 Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) tissue samples

Proteomic profiling of NCI60 cell lines from Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia

Project description:This ArrayExpress record contains meta-data and results of quantitative analysis of cell lines from the NCI-60 panel using pressure cycling technology (PCT) and SWATH-mass spectrometry. Each cell line was analyzed in duplicate. Raw data files are available at the EMBL-EBI protemics data archive (PRIDE) at accession PXD003539 (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pride/archive/projects/PXD003539). Since the record here does not include the raw data files and hence there is no need to explicitly link individual replicate to a raw file, each sample is only listed once in the ArrayExpress samples table for clarity.

Quantitative Proteome of enzymatically isolated rumen epithelium in sheep with low or high methane emission.

Project description:Ruminant livestock are one of the major contributors to carbon emission contributing the global warming issue. Methane (CH4) produced from enteric microbial fermentation of feed in the reticulo-rumen are known to differ between sheep with different digestive function and fermentation products such as metabolites. However, the molecular mechanism underpinning differences in methane emission remains to be fully elucidated. We extracted a membrane and cytosolic protein fraction of rumen epithelium proteins from both high (H) and low (L) CH4 emitting sheep. Protein abundance differences between the phenotypes were quantified using SWATH-mass spectrometry. We identified 92 proteins annotated as cell surface transporters, of which only solute carrier family (SLC) 40A1 had a greater fold change of protein expression in the high methane emission phenotype. The main difference in protein abundance we found were related to the metabolism of glucose, lactate and processes of cell defence against microbes in the epithelium of sheep in each group. To best of our knowledge, this represents one of the most comprehensive proteomes of ovine rumen epithelium to date.

Label free SWATH proteomics reveals sex-biased proteins potentially associated with sex expression and modification in dioecious C. grandis

Project description:Dioecy is an important sexual system wherein, male and female flowers are borne on separate unisexual plants. Knowledge of sex-related differences can enhance our understanding in molecular and developmental processes leading to unisexual flower development. Coccinia grandis is a dioecious species belonging to Cucurbitaceae, a family well-known for diverse sexual systems. Male and female plants of C. grandis have 22A+XY and 22A+XX chromosomes respectively. Previously, we have reported a gynomonoecious form (GyM) (22A+XX) of C. grandis bearing morphologically hermaphrodite flowers (GyM-H) and female flowers (GyM-F). Also, we showed that foliar spray of silver nitrate on female C. grandis plant induces development of morphologically hermaphrodite buds (Ag-H) despite the absence of Y chromosome. To identify sex-related differences, total protein from the flower buds of male, female, GyM-H and Ag-H of C. grandis at early and middle stages of development were analysed by a powerful label-free proteomics approach on ABSCIEX Triple TOF 5600 platform.

Passage of transmissible cancers in the Tasmanian devil is due to a dominant, shared peptide motif and a limited repertoire of MHC-I allotypes

Project description:Transmissible cancers are spread via the passage of malignant cells. The survival of the Tasmanian devil, the largest marsupial carnivore, is threatened by two independent transmissible cancers, devil facial tumour (DFT) 1 and devil facial tumour 2 (DFT2). To aid the development of a peptide vaccine and to interrogate how histocompatibility barriers can be overcome, we analysed the peptides bound to Major Histocompatibility Complex class I molecules from the Tasmanian devil and its transmissible tumours.

Mildly pathogenic Rickettsia-macrophage interactions

Project description:The molecular details underlying differences in pathogenicity between Rickettsia species remain to be fully understood. Evidence points to macrophage permissiveness as a key mechanism in rickettsial virulence. Different studies have shown that several rickettsial species responsible for mild forms of rickettsioses can also escape macrophage-mediated killing mechanisms and establish a replicative niche within these cells. However, their manipulative capacity with respect to host cellular processes is far from being understood. A deeper understanding of the interplay between mildly pathogenic rickettsiae and macrophages and the commonalities and specificities of host responses to infection would illuminate differences in immune evasion mechanisms and pathogenicity. We have used quantitative proteomics by SWATH-MS/MS to profile alterations resulting from infection of THP-1 macrophages with three mildly pathogenic rickettsiae: R. parkeri, R. africae, and R. massiliae, all successfully proliferating in these cells. We show that all three species trigger different proteome signatures. Our results reveal a significant impact of infection in proteins categorized as type-I interferon responses, here included several components of the RIG-1-like signaling pathway, mRNA splicing, and protein translation. Moreover, significant differences in protein content between infection conditions anticipate species-specific induced alterations. Indeed, we confirm a distinct impact on host inflammatory responses between species during infection, demonstrating that these species trigger different levels of INF-β, differences in the bioavailability of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL1-β, and in triggering pyroptotic events. This work reveals novel aspects and exciting nuances of macrophage-Rickettsia interactions, adding additional layers of complexity between Rickettsia and host cells constant arms race for survival.

SWATH proteomics reveals that reductants selectively disrupt collagen homeostasis in human dermal fibroblasts and modify growth factor-independent signalling through the MAPK/Akt pathway

Project description:We have used an unbiased, label-free SWATH proteomic approach to quantitate the response of skin fibroblast cells to the reductant DTT in the presence or absence of the growth factor PDGF. Of the 4487 proteins that were identified, only 47 proteins showed a statistically significant change of 2-fold or more with reducing stress. Our data demonstrates that reducing stress results in the loss of a small subset of reductant-sensitive proteins, including the fibrillar collagens (COL1A1/2 and COL3A1) and the myopathy-associated bundling collagen COL6A1/2/3.

FA-SAT ncRNA interactome

Project description:FA-SAT is a satellite DNA sequence present and transcribed in many Bilateria species, what may anticipate a conserved and significant function in these genomes. Here we prove that in cat and human cells, FA-SAT satellite transcripts play a nuclear function at the G1 phase of the cell cycle. We identified and demonstrated that the main FA-SAT non-coding RNA interactor is the PKM2 protein. Our work shows that the disruption of the FA-SAT ncRNA/PKM2 protein complex, by the depletion of either FA-SAT or PKM2, results in the same phenotype—apoptosis. Moreover, the ectopic overexpression of FA-SAT in tumour human cells did not affect the cell cycle progression. In sum, our data reveal a new player, FA-SAT RNA, a non-coding satellite RNA, which interacts with the PKM2 nuclear protein. This ribonucleoprotein is involved in apoptosis and cell cycle progression, what foresees a promising new target for studies in cancer processes that rely on these pathways.

Glycation modulates glutamatergic signaling and exacerbates ParkinsonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s disease-like phenotypes

Project description:Alpha-synuclein (aSyn) is a central player in the pathogenesis of synucleinopathies due to its accumulation in typical protein aggregates in the brain. However, it is still unclear how it contributes to neurodegeneration. Type-2 diabetes mellitus is a risk factor for ParkinsonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s disease (PD) and, interestingly, a common molecular alteration among these disorders is the age-associated increase in protein glycation. We hypothesized that glycation-induced neuronal dysfunction might be a contributing factor in synucleinopathies. Here, we dissected the specific impact of methylglyoxal (MGO, a glycating agent) in mice overexpressing aSyn in the brain. We found that MGO-glycation potentiates motor, cognitive, olfactory, and colonic dysfunction in aSyn transgenic (Thy1-aSyn) mice that received a single dose of MGO via intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection. aSyn accumulates in the midbrain, striatum, and prefrontal cortex, and protein glycation is increased in the cerebellum and midbrain. SWATH mass spectrometry analysis, used to quantify changes in the brain proteome, revealed that MGO mainly increase glutamatergic-associated proteins in the midbrain (NMDA, AMPA, glutaminase, VGLUT and EAAT1), but not in the prefrontal cortex, where it mainly affects the electron transport chain. Notably, the glycated proteins in the midbrain of Thy1-aSyn mice that received MGO strongly correlate with PD and dopaminergic pathways. Overall, we demonstrated that MGO-induced glycation accelerates PD-like sensorimotor and cognitive alterations and suggest that the increase of glutamatergic signaling may underly these events. Our study sheds new light into the enhanced vulnerability of the midbrain in PD-related synaptic dysfunction and suggests that glycation suppressors and anti-glutamatergic drugs may hold promise as disease-modifying therapies for synucleinopathies.
