Project description:Gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) infections are considered the most important disease of grazing sheep. Due to increasing anthelmintic resistance, chemical control alone is inadequate. Resistance to GIN infection is a heritable trait, and through natural selection many sheep breeds have higher resistance. Studying the transcriptome from GIN-exposed and GIN-unexposed sheep using RNA-Sequencing technology can provide measurements of transcript levels associated with the host response to GIN infection, and these transcripts may harbor genetic markers that can be used in selective breeding programs to enhance disease resistance. The objective of this study was to compare liver transcriptomes of sheep naturally exposed to GINs, with either high or low parasite burdens, to GIN-unexposed control sheep in order to identify key regulator genes and biological processes associated with GIN infection. Differential gene expression analysis revealed no significant differentially expressed genes (DEG) between sheep with a high or low parasite burden (P-value ≤ 0.01; False Discovery Rate (FDR) ≤ 0.05; and Fold-Change (FC) of > 2). However, when compared to the control group, low parasite burden sheep showed 159 DEG, and high parasite burden sheep showed 146 DEG (P-value ≤ 0.01; FDR ≤ 0.05; and FC of > 2). Among these two lists of significant DEG, 86 DEG were found in common between the two parasite burden groups compared to the control (GIN-unexposed sheep). Functional analysis of these significant 86 DEG found upregulated genes involved in immune response and downregulated genes involved in lipid metabolism. Results of this study offer insight into the liver transcriptome during natural GIN exposure that helps provide a better understanding of the key regulator genes involved in GIN infection in sheep.

Project description:Haemonchus contortus is the gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) species that most parasites sheep and goats in tropical and subtropical regions. Due to the high prevalence and pathogenicity by hematophagy, it causes severe anemia, submandibular edema and deaths. Post-genomics tools, such as proteomics, allow the identification of differentially expressed genes and differentially abundant proteins and metabolites between two conditions of a given factor. Thus, the detection of protein profiles that occur in more parasitized animals may be of great interest for the identification of sheep that effectively need anthelmintic treatment. As a result, the parasites are preserved in refugia through Targeted Selective Treatment (TST) strategies for the animals, extension of the period of efficacy of the anthelmintics and, when its use is necessary, parasite control will be more efficient. This project aims to characterize the plasma proteomic profile of sheep breeds susceptible and resistant to GIN infection, aiming at the future development of a diagnostic tool and the understanding of the resistance mechanisms involved in the Santa Inês, White Dorper and Texel sheep breeds. In this way, the development of methodologies, processes and products for the identification of sheep with higher rates of infection by GIN, in addition to the detection of breeds/individuals more resistant to these parasites and the understanding of the resistance mechanisms involved in the different hosts, is presented as a topic of great relevance for sheep farming, which can be extended to goat farming. It also addresses public health issues and the consumer population, which is increasingly demanding in terms of quality, certification and safety.

Project description:Tuft cells are required for an effective immune response to gastrointestinal parasitic nematodes in mice, but little is known about tuft cells in other animals. Using scRNA-seq, we profiled the transcriptome of tuft cells and other mucosal cell types from the sheep abomasal epithelium following nematode infection. Cells were isolated from abomasum mucosal tissue of two sheep and processed using 10x Genomics Chromium Single Cell 3’ Reagent kit (v.3) using a total of 20,000 input cells. cDNA libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NextSeq 500 system to a depth of 50,000 read pairs per cell. Sequences were mapped to the genomes for ovine (Ovis aries Oar_v3.1; https://www.ensembl.org/Ovis_aries/Info/Index) and bovine (Bos taurus ARS-UCD1.2; https://www.ensembl.org/Bos_taurus/Info/Index) and gene count matrices generated using the Cell Ranger software (v.3.1.0) and analysed using Seurat package (v.3.1) with R version 3.6.0. The “Find Markers” function identified a tuft cell cluster and other distinct epithelial (Epcam+) and immune (Ptprc+) cell clusters.

Project description:Seasonal influenza outbreaks represent a large burden for the healthcare system as well as the economy. While the role of the microbiome in the context of various diseases has been elucidated, the effects on the respiratory and gastrointestinal microbiome during influenza illness is largely unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to characterize the temporal development of the respiratory and gastrointestinal microbiome of swine using a multi-omics approach prior and during influenza infection. Swine is a suitable animal model for influenza research, as it is closely related to humans and a natural host for influenza viruses. Our results showed that IAV infection resulted in significant changes in the abundance of Moraxellaceae and Pasteurellaceae families in the upper respiratory tract. To our surprise, temporal development of the respiratory microbiome was not affected. Furthermore, we observed significantly altered microbial richness and diversity in the gastrointestinal microbiome after IAV infection. In particular, we found increased abundances of Prevotellaceae, while Clostridiaceae and Lachnospiraceae decreased. Furthermore, metaproteomics showed that the functional composition of the microbiome, known to be robust and stable under healthy conditions, was heavily affected by the influenza infection. Metabolome analysis proved increased amounts of short-chain fatty acids in the gastrointestinal tract, which might be involved in faster recovery. Furthermore, metaproteome data suggest a possible immune response towards flagellated Clostridia induced during the infection. Therefore, it can be assumed that the respiratory infection with IAV caused a systemic effect in the porcine host and microbiome.

Project description:Milk and dairy products are an essential food and an economic resource in many countries. Milk component synthesis and secretion by the mammary gland involve expression of a large number of genes whose nutritional regulation remains poorly defined. We aim at understanding the genomic influence on milk quality and synthesis by comparing two sheep breeds, with different milking attitude, Sarda and Gentile di Puglia, using sheep-specific microarray technology. From sheep ESTs deposited at NCBI, we generated the first annotated microarray developed for sheep with a covering of most of the genome.
