Project description:Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-shortening disease caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Although bacterial lung infection and the resulting inflammation cause most of the morbidity and mortality, how loss of CFTR first disrupts airway host defense has remained uncertain. We asked what abnormality impairs elimination when a bacterium lands on the pristine surface of a newborn CF airway? To investigate this defect, we interrogated the viability of individual bacteria immobilized on solid grids and placed on the airway surface. As a model we studied CF pigs, which spontaneously develop hallmark features of CF lung disease. At birth, their lungs lack infection and inflammation, but have a reduced ability to eradicate bacteria. Here we show that in newborn wild-type pigs, the thin layer of airway surface liquid (ASL) rapidly killed bacteria in vivo, when removed from the lung, and in primary epithelial cultures. Lack of CFTR reduced bacterial killing. We found that ASL pH was more acidic in CF, and reducing pH inhibited the antimicrobial activity of ASL. Reducing ASL pH diminished bacterial killing in wild-type pigs, and increasing ASL pH rescued killing in CF pigs. These results directly link the initial host defense defect to loss of CFTR, an anion channel that facilitates HCO3- transport. Without CFTR, airway epithelial HCO3- secretion is defective, ASL pH falls and inhibits antimicrobial function, and thereby impairs killing of bacteria that enter the newborn lung. These findings suggest that increasing ASL pH might prevent the initial infection in patients with CF and that assaying ASL pH or bacterial killing could report on the benefit of therapeutic interventions. 11 samples of trachea primary airway epithelial cultures representing CFTR+/+ and CFTR-/- pigs. Pig samples representing 14 bronchus and 12 trachea tissue samples submitted in GSE21071.

Project description:The link between human gut microbiota (a complex group of microorganisms including not only bacteria but also fungi, viruses, etc.,) and the physiological state is nowadays unquestionable. Metaproteomic has emerged as a useful technique to characterize this microbial community, not just taxonomically, but also focusing on specific biological processes carried out by gut microbiota that may have an effect in the host health or pathological state. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease in which the microbiota of the respiratory tract determines the patient's survival and differences in composition of gut microbiota of cystic fibrosis patients respect to healthy infants have been reported. In order to characterize this host-microbiota inter-relation, we carried out the metaproteomic study of 30 stool samples from infants with cystic fibrosis.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa airway infection is the primary cause of death in Cystic Fibrosis (CF). During early infection P. aeruginosa produces multiple virulence factors, which cause acute pulmonary disease and are largely regulated by quorum sensing (QS) intercellular signalling networks. Longitudinal clinical studies have observed the loss, through adaptive mutation, of QS and QS-related virulence in late chronic infection. Although the mechanisms are not understood, infection with QS mutants has been linked to a worse outcome for CF patients. By comparing QS-active and QS-inactive P. aeruginosa CF isolates, we have identified novel virulence factors and pathways associated with QS disruption. In particular, we noted factors implicating increased intra-phagocyte survival. Our data present novel targets as candidates for future CF therapies. Some of these targets are already the subject of drug development programmes for the treatment of other bacterial pathogens and may provide cross-over benefit to the CF population. Refer to individual Series. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE25128: Gene expression data from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from cystic fibrosis lung infections GSE25129: Comparative genomic hybridisation data from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from cystic fibrosis lung infections

Project description:The airways of cystic fibrosis patients are chronically colonized by a diverse range of microbial pathogens, the composition of which changes throughout life Alteration to the pulmonary environment caused by inter-microbial interactions and pathogen-host interactions influence the type of microbes that can engage in sustained infection. The opportunistic bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the primary cause of morbidity and mortality amongst individuals with cystic fibrosis and it is estimated that 60 – 80 % of cystic fibrosis patients experience chronic P. aeruginosa infection by the age of 20 years Aspergillus fumigatus is the most prevalent fungal pathogen isolated from cystic fibrosis airways, affecting up to 58% of patients. It is the causative agent of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), a hypersensitivity disorder resulting from the inhalation of fungal conidia. Although co-colonization of the cystic fibrosis airways by P. aeruginosa and A. fumigatus is rare (3.1 – 15.8 %) disease prognosis is poor when both are present. However, sequential infection is more common. It has recently been suggested that A. fumigatus is more prevalent in juvenile cystic fibrosis patients that has been initially reported due to inconsistencies in the culture methods used to detect A. fumigatus. Despite the prevalence and persistence of A. fumigatus, P. aeruginosa predominates as the primary pathogen in the cystic fibrosis lung, suggesting that interactions with other pathogens such as A. fumigatus may influence the pathogenicity of P. aeruginosa by altering its virulence. We report here an investigation of the effect of culturing P. aeruginosa in the presence of A. fumigatus by measuring differences in growth rate and the overall proteome of the bacteria. It was hypothesized that A. fumigatus creates an environment that promotes a metabolic-driven increase in P. aeruginosa that results in it outcompeting the fungus. The molecular basis of this increased proliferation was investigated further using Label-free quantitative (LFQ) proteomics to characterise the proteome changes in P. aeruginosa when exposed to the supernatant of i) A. fumigatus alone ii) the supernatant of an A. fumigatus/P. aeruginosa co-culture and iii) P. aeruginosa alone. LFQ proteomics involves the simultaneous identification and quantification of thousands of proteins (the ultimate determinants of phenotype) from a single sample has recently been employed to characterise the P. aeruginosa proteome in response to iron limiting conditions, resolving how how the bacteria survives and proliferates in such environments.

Project description:Our laboratory has held a long interest in the glycosylation changes seen on the surface of airway epithelia of patients with the disease cystic fibrosis (CF). Experiments from our laboratory have detailed a CF glycosylation phenotype of increased Fuca1,3/4 and decreased Fuca1,2 and sialic acid on the surfaces of immortalized and primary CF cells compared to non-CF cells. Further, we have shown that gene transfer and subsequent expression of a wild type CF plasmid in CF airway cells results in correction or reversal of this glycosylation phenotype. We hypothesize that the changes in glycosylation seen in CF cells are key in the pathophysiology of the cystic fibrosis airway disease. For example, it has been shown that Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a bacterium that has a predilection for colonizing CF airways, adheres to asialylated glycolipids and glycoconjugates with terminal Fuca1,3/4. One focus of our laboratory is to elucidate the etiology of the glycosylation changes seen in CF cells and the mechanism by which these changes are reversed by wild type CFTR gene transfer. We propose to study the gene expression of immortalized and primary CF and non-CF airway epithelial cells: 1. CF/T43 vs. BEAS-2B cells. These are two widely used immortalized airway cell lines that we have used extensively in the past. 2. C38 cells; C38 cells are IB3 cells expressing wtCFTR. The experimental focus is to elucidate the etiology of the glycosylation changes seen in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) cells and the mechanism by which these changes are reversed by wild type CFTR gene transfer. To do so, the gene expression of immortalized and primary CF and non-CF airway epithelial cells were compared and studied. Cell lines used were CF/T43 and BEAS-2B, both widely used immortalized airway cell lines. Other cell lines studied included C38 cell lines (clonal derivatives of IB3 cells expressing wtCFTR).

Project description:The purpose of the study is to compare the transcriptomic profile of the airway epithelium generated from bronchial airway epithelial cells isolated from healthy donors (NCF) and patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Cells were grown at the air-liquid interface for at least 2-months. CF is caused by mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Only patients homozygous for the F508del mutation of the CFTR gene were considered. The reconstituted airway epithelium was mechanically wounded and allowed to repair with time. We considered four steps: 1) intact, non-wounded (NW) epithelium; 2) 24h hours post-wounding (pW); 3) time at which the wound is closed (WC); 4) two days post-wound closure (pWC). We also mimicked infection by exposing the cells to Pseudominas aeruginosa flagelin for NW and WC conditions.
