Project description:Manuka honey has been shown to inhibit growth in Pseudomonas aueruginosa, the mode of action is currently unclear. We used microarrays to detail the difference in global gene expresson following treatment of cells with honey. We identified distinct classe of up and down regulated genes Pseudomonas aueruginosa were harvested 4 hours after exposure to treatment for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Control and honey treated cells were investigates, three biological replicates were used for each sample.

Project description:The aim of this study was to characterise the transcriptomic changes in P. aeruginosa PA14 following treatment with antimicrobial manuka honey and its key components (sugar, methyglyoxal, sugar + methylglyoxal) for 30 minutes at a subinhibitory concentration (0.5x MIC). mRNA profiling was conducted to gain mechanistic insights into the mode of action of antimicrobial manuka honey.
Project description:We report a study conducted to investigate the variation on gene expression of the pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus upon co-cultivation with the pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The study was conducted by investigating the gene expression variation at different time points (45, 90 and 180 minutes after co-incubation). As control, we used data obtained by cultivating the fungus either without bacteria, or with heat-inactivated Pseudomonas.
Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 persister and normal cells were treated with and without Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) to understand the effect of GM-CSF on gene expression of PAO1. We used DNA microarrays to identify the down-regulated and up-regulated genes after GM-CSF treatment.
Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 contacted with and without poplar roots gene expression Poplar contacted with and without PAO1 gene expression. All samples cultured in 1 x hrp + 0.25 % sucrose Keywords: Contact with different species
Project description:Analysis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 treated with 200 µM sphingomyelin. Results provide insight into the response to sphingomyelin in P. aeruginosa.
Project description:Proteomic analysis was performed on both manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) and non-manuka honeys and nectars to identify unique peptide markers which can be used for manuka honey authentication.
Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is known to tolerate antibiotic therapy during infection. This prevents clearance of infection and negatively impacts patient outcomes. Here, we report the transcriptome sequence of antibiotic-treated and untreated P. aeruginosa cultures and the differential gene expression observed when treated cells are compared to untreated cells.
