Project description:Listeria monocytogenes is a gram-positive, food-borne pathogen responsible for invasive infections with high overall mortality. Early host defenses encountered by L. monocytogenes following ingestion include low pH of the stomach and bile present in the small intestinal lumen. We hypothesized that “epidemic” strains are better able to withstand exposure to low pH and bile encountered in the gastrointestinal tract as compared to most “environmental” strains. Furthermore, we hypothesized that epidemic and environmental strains would have distinct transcriptional programs upon exposure to these conditions. Our treatments included 1 hr exposure to acid (pH 5.5 and 3.5) and bile (0.3%) stress. Strains were pre-exposed to pH 5.5 (1 hr) before being treated with pH 3.5. We used a collection of 12 previously characterized epidemic and environmental strains and each strainXtreatment combination included 3 biological replicates for each microarray experiment. All microarray experiments were two color competitive hybridizations that paired experimental conditions with the same strain at neutral pH for acid stress and pH 5.5 for bile stress. Transcriptomes of environmental strains exposed to acid and bile stress showed remarkably greater number of genes with differences of ≥2-fold expression levels as compared to epidemic strains (5 and 7, respectively). Environmental strains were characterized by up-regulation of several stress related genes and down-regulation of several cell envelope biosynthesis and virulence related genes, suggesting that complex regulatory networks orchestrate the cellular changes in the environmental strains to overcome stressful environments. The transcriptome of epidemic strains, in contrast, showed muted responses to these stress conditions implying their pre-adaptability to acid and bile stress encountered during natural infection that may enable epidemic strains to survive and become “primed” for subsequent colonization and infection in the lower gastrointestinal tract.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of gene responses in liver in the coral reef fish Pomacentrus moluccensis in response to different types of environmental stress: cold, heat, hypoxic and hyposmotic shock. Goal was to determine the common effects of different types of environmental stress on gene expression as well as responses unique to different stressors. Abstract from Kassahn et al. BMC Genomics (2007) 8:358 Background While our understanding of the importance of transcriptional regulation for biological function is continuously growing, we still know comparatively little about how environmentally-induced stress affects gene expression in vertebrates and how consistent transcriptional stress responses are across different types of environmental stress. Results In this study, we looked for a genetic measure of environmental stress and used a multi-stressor approach to identify components of a common stress response as well as components unique to different types of environmental stress. We exposed individuals of the coral reef fish Pomacentrus moluccensis to hypoxic, hyposmotic, cold and heat shock and measured the responses of approximately 16,000 genes in liver. We also compared winter and summer responses to heat shock to examine the capacity for such responses to vary with acclimation to different ambient temperatures. We identified a series of gene functions that were consistently involved in all stress responses examined here, suggesting common effects of stress on biological function. These common responses were achieved by the regulation of largely independent sets of genes and the responses of individual genes varied greatly across different stress types. However, we were able to identify groups of co-regulated genes, the genes within which shared similar functions. Given current estimates of climatic change, we were particularly interested in the response to prolonged heat exposure. In total, 324 gene loci were differentially expressed following exposure to heat over five days. The functions of these heat-responsive genes suggest that prolonged heat stress leads to oxidative stress and protein damage, challenge of the immune system, and a re-allocation of energy sources. Conclusion This is the first environmental genomic study to measure gene regulation in response to different environmental stressors in a natural population of a warm-adapted ectothermic vertebrate. This study offers insight into the effects of environmental stress on biological function and sheds light on the expected sensitivity of coral reef fishes to elevated temperatures in the future.
