Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE25468: Expression data from Human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) infected with Toxoplasma gondii. GSE25469: Expression data from WT or p65-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) infected with Toxoplasma gondii. Refer to individual Series
Project description:Through targeted CRISPR screening of the Toxoplasma gondii secretome, we identified GRA57 as a novel secreted effector required for survival in interferon-gamma (IFNg)-activated human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs). In this experiment we aimed to determine if GRA57 affects the host cell transcriptional response to Toxoplasma, and also whether deletion of GRA57 affects the parasite transcriptome.

Project description:Human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) infected with type I strains of Toxoplasma gondii
Project description:To identify accessible chromatin regions in the human host cells during Toxoplasma parasite infection (uninfected, RH-infected and Pru-infected human foreskin fibroblasts) and in the obligate intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii (Type 1 RH strain and Type 2 Pru strain), ATAC-seq was performed.
Project description:Expression data from cyclohexamide treated Human Foreskin Fibroblasts (HFFs) infected with type I Toxoplasma gondii and stimulated with interferon gamma.
Project description:The in vitro effect of infection with different strains of Toxoplasma gondii was tested 24 hours after infection of Human Foreskin Fibroblasts (HFF) The strains tested include RH, VEG, and transgenic strains of RH overexpressing ROP38 or ROP21 Total RNA of Toxoplasma gondii infected HFF cell was compared to uninfected cells
Project description:Expression profile microarray of human foreskin fibroblast cell comparing control untreated HFF cell with HFF cell infected with ME49 strain.Study on Toxoplasma gondii infection of HFF cell LncRNAs expression, for further studies on the differential exprssion of LncRNAs in HFF cell against the infection of Toxoplasma gondii research provide the basic function.
Project description:Toxoplasma gondii multiplies inside a parasitophorous vacuole in the host cell. Several parasite proteins have been described that hijack host signaling pathways, which mostly originate from the rhoptry organelles. We report here the identification and characterization of GRA16, the first dense granule protein shown to be exported through the parasitophorous vacuole membrane and to reach the host cell nucleus. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that GRA16 positively modulates the expression of host genes involved in cell-cycle progression and the p53 tumor suppressor pathway. We show that GRA16 directly binds two host enzymes, the deubiquitinase HAUSP and the phosphatase PP2A, and that GRA16 alters p53 protein levels in a HAUSP-dependent manner and induces the nuclear translocation of the PP2A holoenzyme. Therefore GRA16 is a novel regulator of the HAUSP/p53 pathway and together with GRA15, emerge as a subfamily of new dense granule proteins exported beyond the tachyzoites-hosting vacuole to subvert the host transcriptome. Mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) or Human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) were infected with the following Toxoplasma gondii strains: - RHku80 WT versus RHku80(deltaGRA16) mutant (in BMDM) - Pruku80 WT versus Pruku80(deltaGRA16) mutant (in BMDM) - RHku80 WT versus RHku80(deltaGRA16) mutant (in HFF)
