Rapid and culture free identification of Francisella in hare carcasses by high-resolution mass spectrometry

ABSTRACT: Zoonotic pathogens that can be transmitted via food to humans have a high potential for large-scale emergencies, comprising severe effects on public health, critical infrastructures, and the economy. In this context, the development of laboratory methods to rapidly detect zoonotic bacteria in the food supply chain, including high-resolution mass spectrometry are needed. In this work, an optimized sample preparation method for liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) based proteome profiling was established for Francisella isolates and a cluster analysis, as well as a phylogenetic tree, was calculated to shed light on evolutionary relationships. Furthermore, this method was applied to tissues of infected hare carcasses from Germany. Even though the non-informative data outnumbered by a manifold the information of the zoonotic pathogen in the resulting proteome profiles, the standardized evaluation of MS data within an established automated analysis pipeline identified F. tularensis and thus is in principle an applicable method to monitor food supply chains.

Identification of universally applicable and species-specific marker peptides for Bacillus anthracis

Project description:Anthrax is a zoonotic infection caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis (BA), a gram-positive, aerobic, spore-forming bacterium that can be misused as a biowarfare agent. The major patho-genicity factors of BA are encoded by genes located on two extrachromosomal plasmids, which are often targeted for specific identification of this pathogen. However, more recent findings show that these plasmids are not a unique feature of BA but can also occur in other Bacillus species. Furthermore, BA is a member of the Bacillus cereus group, a subgroup of closely related Bacilli. Due to the high genetic similarity within this group, it is a challenge to distinguish BA from other members of this group. In this study, we investigated if it is possible to identify species-specific and universally applicable marker peptides for BA. For this purpose, we applied a high-resolution mass spectrometry-based approach for 42 BA isolates. Together with the genomic sequencing data and by developing a bioinformatics data evaluation pipeline, which uses a database containing most of the publicly available protein sequences worldwide (UniParc), we were able to identify eleven universal marker peptides unique to BA, which are located on the chromosome and there-fore might overcome known problems like observable loss of plasmids in environmental species, plasmid loss during cultivation in the lab and that the virulence plasmids are not necessarily a unique feature of BA. The identified chromosomally encoded markers in this study could extend the small panel of already existing chromosomal targets and together with targets for the viru-lence plasmids may pave the way to an even more reliable identification of BA using genomics- as well as proteomics-based techniques.

Human Serum, Following Absorption of Fish Cartilage Hydrolysate, Promotes Dermal Fibroblast Healing through Anti-Inflammatory and Immunomodulatory Proteins

Project description:Background/Objectives: Marine collagen peptides (MCPs) and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have been described as potential wound-healing (WH) agents. Fish cartilage hydrolysate (FCH) is a natural active food ingredient obtained from enzymatic hydrolysis which combines MCPs and GAGs. Recently, the clinical benefits of FCH supplementation for the skin, as well as its mode of action, have been demonstrated. Some of the highlighted mechanisms are common to the WH process. The aim of the study is therefore to investigate the influence of FCH supplementation on the skin healing processes and the underlying mechanisms. Methods: To this end, an ex vivo clinical approach, which takes into account the clinical digestive course of nutrients, coupled with primary cell culture on human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) and ultra-deep proteomic analysis, was performed. The effects of human serum enriched in circulating metabolites resulting from FCH ingestion (FCH-enriched serum) were assessed on HDF WH via an in vitro scratch wound assay and on the HDF proteome via diaPASEF (Data Independent Acquisition—Parallel Accumulation Serial Fragmentation) proteomic analysis. Results: Results showed that FCH-enriched human serum accelerated wound closure. In support, proteins with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties and proteins prone to promote hydration and ECM stability showed increased expression in HDFs after exposure to FCH-enriched serum. Conclusions: Taken together, these data provide valuable new insights into the mechanisms that may contribute to FCH’s beneficial impact on human skin functionality by supporting WH. Further studies are needed to reinforce these preliminary data and investigate the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of FCH.

A molecular study of Italian ryegrass grown on Martian regolith simulant

Project description:The International Space Exploration Coordination Group has set a roadmap whose long-range strategy envisions the first human settlements on Mars by 2040. In this scenario, finding ways to exploit the local resources for the provision of food, construction materials, propellants, pharmaceuticals is an urgent need. Plants are important resources for deep space manned missions because they produce phytochemicals of pharmaceutical relevance, are sources of food and perform photosynthesis, thus providing oxygen which is crucial in bioregenerative life support systems (BLSS). Growth analysis and plant biomass yield have been previously evaluated on Martian regolith simulants, but molecular studies, such as gene expression analysis and protein profiling are still missing. The present work aims at filling this gap by providing molecular data on a representative member of the Poaceae, Lolium multiflorum Lam., grown on normal soil and Martian regolith simulant (MMS-1). The molecular data were complemented with optical microscopy of root/leaf tissues and soil physico-chemical analyses.

A multi-omics approach to elucidate okadaic acid-induced changes in human HepaRG hepatocarcinoma cells

Project description:Okadaic acid (OA) is a marine biotoxin that can induce diarrheic shellfish poisoning upon consumption. It can accumulate in filter-feeding shellfish, thereby reaching the human food chain. In addition to inducing severe gastrointestinal symptoms, OA can pass the intestinal barrier into the bloodstream, thereby reaching the liver. However, the effects of OA on the liver have not been much in the focus of research so far. Therefore, this study now focuses on elucidating changes in the proteome of HepaRG cells induced by OA. Furthermore, as a potent phosphatase inhibitor, we expected changes in the phosphoproteome of the cells. Therefore, we further investigated the phosphoproteome of the HepaRG cells after OA exposure. Results revealed changes in enzyme activity regulation, cytoskeleton organization and energy metabolism.

mTOR activity paces human blastocyst stage developmental progression

Project description:Many mammals can control the timing of gestation and birth by pausing embryonic development at the blastocyst stage. It is unknown whether the capacity to pause development is conserved, in general across mammals, and more specifically in humans. Activity of the growth regulating mTOR pathway governs developmental pausing in the mouse. Here we show a stage-specific capacity to delay the progression of human development via mTOR inhibition. In this context, human blastoids and pluripotent stem cells in naïve and naïve-like, but not primed, states can be induced to enter a dormant state, which is reversible at the functional and molecular level.

Resuscitation from the viable but nonculturable state of Escherichia coli: the importance of a pyruvate sensing network

Project description:Viable but nonculturable (VBNC) organisms have been underestimated and neglected when studying dormant phenotypes. In clinical settings, VBNC cells may contribute to non-apparent infections capable of being reactivated after months or even years, as for the case of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The lack of specific and reliable methodology prevents the proper characterization of the VBNC state. Ultimately, these organisms pose a public health risk with potential implications in several industries ranging from pharmaceuticals to food industry. Research regarding their induction and resuscitation is of major importance. Bacteria are able to respond to several environmental and physiological oscillations in part via two-component systems (TCSs). BtsS/BtsR and YpdA/YpdB are two TCSs of Escherichia coli that form a pyruvate sensing network. Their role in the VBNC state is explored in this study.

Proteomic analysis of global response to ionizing radiation in Hypsibius exemplaris

Project description:Recent studies have shown that proteins unique to tardigrades are involved in the remarkable ability of these small animals to withstand desiccation and ionizing radiation (IR). For resistance to IR, only one tardigrade unique protein has been identified so far: Dsup, for DNA damage suppressor, found in R. varieornatus and H. exemplaris. Rv-Dsup protects from DNA damage by X-rays in human cells, suggesting that DNA protection is important for resistance to IR. Here, we chose to investigate the role of DNA repair and search for novel tardigrade unique genes involved in resistance to IR. For this, we performed an unbiased proteome analysis of H. exemplaris either untreated, or at 4h post-irradiation, 24h post-irradiation and after Bleomycin treatment.

Ribosome inactivation regulates translation elongation in neurons

Project description:Cellular plasticity is a prerequisite to adapt to ever-changing stimuli. Therefore, cells constantly reshape their translatome and, in turn, their proteome. The control of translational activity has been extensively studied at the stage of translation initiation. How cells regulate polysome speed is, however, widely unknown. Here, we exploited a kinetic approach to investigate global translation kinetics in cells. We found that polysome speeds differ between different cell types including astrocytes, induced pluripotent human stem cells, human neural stem cells, and human and rat neurons. Among these cells, we observed that mature cortical neurons translate the fastest. This finding was even more striking as these cells express the elongation factor 2 (eEF2) at lowest levels compared to other cell types. We found that neurons resolve this obstacle by inactivating a fraction of their ribosomes. This process is regulated by the levels and phosphorylation of eEF2 as well as by NMDA mediated neuronal stimulation. Our data strongly suggest a novel regulation mechanism in which nerve cells inactivate ribosomes to allow for translational remodeling. This finding has important implications for developmental brain disorders that are hallmarked by altered translation.

Dictyostelium DIA LFQ proteomics of vegetative and developmental growth

Project description:Dictyostelium discoideum behavior depends on nutrients. When sufficient food is present these amoebae exist in a unicellular state (vegetative growth), but upon starvation they aggregate into a multicellular organism (developmental growth). For proteomics 30 minutes and eight hour cultures of D. discoideum under vegetative and starved growth conditions were compared by DIA-LFQ. This unique biology makes D. discoideum an ideal model for investigating how fundamental metabolism commands cell differentiation and function. We show here that reactive oxygen species (ROS), generated as a consequence of nutrient limitation, lead to the sequestration of the amino acid cysteine in the antioxidant glutathione, limiting the use of its sulfur atom for processes such as protein translation and FeS cluster-containing enzyme activity that contribute to mitochondrial metabolism and cellular proliferation. Such regulated sulfur sequestration maintains D. discoideum in a non-proliferating state that paves the way for multicellular development. This new mechanism of ROS signaling highlights oxygen and sulfur as simple, early evolutionary signaling molecules dictating cell fate, with implications for responses to nutrient fluctuations in higher eukaryotes.
