Project description:Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disorder for which a definitive cure is still missing. This is characterized by an overwhelming inflammatory milieu in the colonic tract where a composite set of immune and non-immune cells orchestrate its pathogenesis. Over the last years, a growing body of evidence has been pinpointing gut virome dysbiosis as underlying its progression. Nonetheless, its role during the early phases of chronic inflammation is far from being fully defined. Here we show the gut virome-associated Hepatitis B virus protein X, most likely acquired after an event of zoonotic spillover, to be associated with the early stages of ulcerative colitis and to induce colonic inflammation in mice. It acts as a transcriptional regulator in epithelial cells, provoking barrier leakage and altering mucosal immunity at the level of both innate and adaptive immunity. This study paves the way to the comprehension of the aetiopathogenesis of intestinal inflammation and encourages further investigations of the virome as a trigger also in other scenarios. Moreover, it provides a brand-new standpoint that looks at the virome as a target for tailored treatments, blocking the early phases of chronic inflammation and possibly leading to better disease management.

Project description:Plasmodium parasites within mosquitoes are exposed to various physiological processes, such as blood meal digestion activity, the gonotrophic cycle, and host responses preventing the entry of parasites into the midgut wall. However, when in vitro-cultured ookinetes are injected into the hemocoel of mosquitoes, Plasmodium parasites are not affected by the vertebrate host’s blood contents and do not pass through the midgut epithelial cells. This infection method might aid in identifying mosquito-derived factors affecting Plasmodium development within mosquitoes. This study investigated novel mosquito-derived molecules related to parasite development in Anopheles mosquitoes. We injected in vitro-cultured Plasmodium berghei (ANKA strain) ookinetes into female and male Anopheles stephensi (STE2 strain) mosquitoes and found that the oocyst number was significantly higher in males than in females, suggesting that male mosquitoes better support the development of parasites. Next, RNA-seq analysis was performed on the injected female and male mosquitoes to identify genes exhibiting changes in expression. Five genes with different expression patterns between sexes and greatest expression changes were identified as being potentially associated with Plasmodium infection. Two of the five genes also showed expression changes with infection by blood-feeding, indicating that these genes could affect the development of Plasmodium parasites in mosquitoes.

Project description:Plasmodium ssp. are pathogens in their vertebrate hosts and also cause deleterious effects to their insect vectors. We show here, however, that Plasmodium-infected mosquitoes more efficiently accumulate energy resources (glycogen) during oocyst development, and survive better when they are starved. Microarray analysis revealed that mosquito metabolism is altered by the presence of rapidly growing oocysts in the midgut. Plasmodium infection is associated with enhanced expression of several insulin-like peptides in mosquitoes and blocking insulin-like signaling results in diminished Plasmodium development. We conclude that Plasmodium infection dramatically changes mosquito metabolism pathways, epitomized by enhanced insulin-signaling, and thereby confer a survival advantage to the insects during periods of starvation. Manipulation of this pathway may provide new strategies to influence the ability of mosquitoes to transmit the protozoa that cause malaria. One-condition experiment: P. berghei infected vs uninfected mosquitoes; 10 mosquitoes per sample; 4 biological replicates for each group; two different time points, 10 and 17 days post infection; control mosquitoes were from same batch as infected mosquitoes that were fed on clean mice.
