Project description:Investigation of the overall in vitro response of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron to human milk oligosaccharides. Comparison with response to MM-lactose and MM-galactose (Analysis performed using as a baseline datasets GSM301635 and GSM301637 corresponding to Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron response in MM-Glucose) In vitro transcriptional profiles of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron obtained from biological duplicate cultures taken: (i) at middle log phase in minimal media galactose (MM-Gal) and minimal media lactose (MM-L) and (ii) at two timepoints during log phase in minimal media human milk oligosaccharides (MM-HMO).
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Salmonella typhimurium in the ceca of germ-free and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron-monoassociated gnotobiotic mice. Comparison with response in MM-Glucose. In vivo transcriptional profiles of Salmonella typhimurium obtained from biological triplicate samples taken from cecal contents of germ-free and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron-monoassociated mice 5 days post-infection with S. typhimurium. Biological duplicate samples from in vitro culture of S. typhimurium in MM-Glucose used for comparision.
Project description:Purpose: Examining the transcriptome of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron VPI-5482 challenged with Bacteroides phage to assess surface molecule expression changes Methods: Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron was grown in BPRM in vitro or Germ-Free mice were monocolonized with Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron and gavaged with ARB25 phage. Fold change was calculated as live phage versus heat-killed phage treated samples with n=3 biological replicates. Once cells reached an optical density corresponding to mid-log phase growth (absorbance between 0.4-0.5), RNA was isolated and rRNA depleted. Samples were multiplexed for sequencing on the Illumina HiSeq platform at the University of Michigan Sequencing Core. Data was analyzed using Arraystar software (DNASTAR, Inc.) using DEseq2 normalization with default parameters. Genes with significant up- or down-regulation were determined by the following criteria: genes with an average fold-change >5-fold and with at least 2/3 biological replicates with a normalized expression level >1% of the overall average, and a p-value < 0.05 (t test with Benjamini-Hochberg correction) Results: Specific capsule expression was increased in wild-type B. thetaiotaomicron during phage infection in vitro and in vivo. Many corresponding in vivo genes were upregulated as well as other surface layer proteins.
Project description:Analysis of the Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron(BT) transcriptome during co-culture with Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells To identify potential bacterial protein(s) involved in the anti-inflammatory effect of BT in colitis, BT was incubated with Caco-2 human intestinal epithelial cells for 2 hours, and bacterial gene expression was assessed on a Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron VPI-5482 specific microarray. Forty-three BT genes were up-regulated by five-fold or more and of these, twenty genes encoded hypothetical proteins.
