Project description:Diarrhea remains a major cause of death in children. Current diagnostic methods largely rely on stool culture and suffer from low sensitivity and inadequate specificity, often leading to inappropriate treatment. The objective of the present study was to use RNA sequencing (RNAseq) analysis to determine blood transcriptional profiles specific for several common pathogenic bacteria and viruses that cause diarrhea in children. We collected whole blood samples from children in Mexico having diarrhea associated with a single pathogen and without systemic complications. Our RNAseq data suggested that the blood signatures can differentiate children with diarrhea from healthy children either with or without bacterial colonization. Moreover, we detected different expression profiles from bacterial and viral infection, demonstrating for the first time the use of RNAseq to identify the etiology of infectious diarrhea. Whole blood from 207 children including children with diarrhea caused by rotavirus (n=55), E.coli (n=55), Salmonella (n=36), Shigella (n=37) and control children (n=24).

Project description:We illustrate an approach for integrating preclinical gnotobiotic animal models with human studies to understand the contributions of perturbed gut microbiota development to childhood undernutrition, and to identify new microbiota-directed therapeutic concepts/leads. Combining metabolomic and proteomic analyses of serially collected plasma samples with metagenomic analyses of serially collected fecal samples, we characterized the biological state of Bangladeshi children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) as they transitioned to moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) after standard treatment. Gnotobiotic mice were subsequently colonized with a defined consortium of bacterial strains representing different stages of microbiota development in healthy children from Bangladesh. Administering different combinations of Bangladeshi complementary food ingredients to colonized mice and germ-free controls revealed diet-dependent changes in representation and metabolism of targeted weaning-phase strains, including accompanying increases in branched-chain amino acids, plus diet- and colonization-dependent augmentation of IGF-1/mTOR signaling. Host and microbial effects of microbiota-directed complementary food (MDCF) prototypes were subsequently examined in gnotobiotic mice colonized with post-SAM MAM microbiota and in gnotobiotic piglets colonized with a defined consortium of targeted age- and growth-discriminatory bacteria. Finally, ar andomized, double-blind study revealed a lead MDCF that affected the representation of targeted bacterial taxa and increased levels of biomarkers and mediators of growth, bone formation, neurodevelopment, and immune function.

Project description:Our study aimed to better understand the immune responses during an acute asthma exacerbation in children. Gene expression profiles were examined by RNA-sequencing in blood samples. Samples were collected on average 2.5 day after systemic corticosteroid treatment. Our findings show that pro-inflammatory genes and pathways related to innate responses and signaling remained increased in children hospitalized for acute asthma exacerbation. Genes and pathways involved in adaptive immune respones, particularly T lymphocyte activation, were decreased in children hospitalized for acute asthma exacerbation. These studies suggest that innate immune responses may remain activated following hospitalization for asthma exacerbation.

Project description:RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of phage infected bacterial cultures offers a snapshot of transcriptional events occurring during the infection process, providing insights into the phage transcriptional organization as well as the bacterial response. To better mimic real environmental contexts, we performed RNA-seq of P. aeruginosa PAO1 cultures infected with phage LUZ19 in a mammalian cell culture medium (MCCM) to better simulate a phage therapy event, and the data were compared to LB medium. Regardless of the media, phage LUZ19 induces significant transcriptional changes in the bacterial host over time, particularly during early infection (t= 5 min) and gradually shuts down bacterial transcription. In a common response in both media, 56 P. aeruginosa PAO1 genes are differentially transcribed and clustered into several functional categories such as metabolism, translation and transcription. Our data allowed us to tease apart a medium-specific response during infection from the identified infection-associated responses. This reinforces the concept that phages overtake bacterial transcriptome in a strict manner to gain control of the bacterial machinery and reallocate resources for infection, in this case overcoming the nutritional limitations of the mammalian cell culture medium. From a phage therapy perspective, this study contributes towards a better understanding of phage-host interaction in human physiological conditions and demonstrates the versatility of phage LUZ19 to adapt to different environments.

Project description:Phage therapy is a therapeutic approach to treat multidrug resistant infections that employs lytic bacteriophages (phages) to eliminate bacteria. Despite the abundant evidence for its success as an antimicrobial in Eastern Europe, there is scarce data regarding its effects on the human host. Here, we aimed to understand how lytic phages interact with cells of the airway epithelium, the tissue site that is colonized by bacterial biofilms in numerous chronic respiratory disorders. Using a panel of Pseudomonas aeruginosa phages and human airway epithelial cells derived from a person with cystic fibrosis, we determined that interactions between phages and epithelial cells depend on specific phage properties as well as physiochemical features of the microenvironment. Although poor at internalizing phages, the airway epithelium responds to phage exposure by changing its transcriptional profile and secreting antiviral and proinflammatory cytokines that correlate with specific phage families. Overall, our findings indicate that mammalian responses to phages are heterogenous and could potentially alter the way that respiratory local defenses aid in bacterial clearance during phage therapy. Thus, besides phage receptor specificity in a particular bacterial isolate, the criteria to select lytic phages for therapy should be expanded to include mammalian cell responses.

Project description:We measured fever-day-specific genome-wide transcript abundance patterns in 105 peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples collected from 41 children hospitalized with dengue virus (DENV) infection in Nicaragua, and from 8 healthy controls. DF1 = primary DF; DF2 = secondary DF; DHF = Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever; DSS = Dengue Shock Syndrome. Samples were collected from pediatric patients with DENV infection at the Hospital Infantil Manuel de Jesus Rivera (HIMJR) in Managua, Nicaragua. Enrollment criteria consisted of hospitalized patients younger than 15 years of age whose parents or guardians completed the informed consent process, and for children 6 years and older who provided assent, and who presented with acute febrile illness of less than 7 days duration with one or more of the following symptoms or signs at the time of evaluation: headache, arthralgia, myalgia, retro-orbital pain, positive tourniquet test, petechiae, and signs of bleeding. Children were considered to have dengue if DENV was detected by RT-PCR or by isolation in cell culture, if an IgM ELISA indicated seroconversion between the acute and convalescent sample, and/or if there was a > 4-fold increase in DENV-specific antibodies between the acute and convalescent phase. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from whole blood within four hours of collection and stored in Trizol at -80 oC disease_state_design

Project description:Phage therapy is a promising adjunct therapeutic approach against bacterial multidrug-resistant infections, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa-derived infections. Nevertheless, the current knowledge about the phage-bacteria interaction within a human environment is limited. In this work, we performed a transcriptome analysis of phage-infected P. aeruginosa adhered to a human epithelium (Nuli-1 ATCC® CRL-4011™). To this end, we performed RNA-sequencing from a complex mixture comprising phage–bacteria–human cells at early, middle, and late infection and compared it to uninfected adhered bacteria. Overall, we demonstrated that phage genome transcription is unaltered by bacterial growth and phage employs a core strategy of predation through upregulation of prophage-associated genes, a shutdown of bacterial surface receptors, and motility inhibition. In addition, specific responses were captured under lung-simulating conditions, with the expression of genes related to spermidine syntheses, sulfate acquisition, spermidine syntheses, biofilm formation (both alginate and polysaccharide syntheses), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) modification, pyochelin expression, and downregulation of virulence regulators. These responses should be carefully studied in detail to better discern phage-induced changes from bacterial responses against phage. Our results establish the relevance of using complex settings that mimics in vivo conditions to study phage-bacteria interplay, being obvious the phage versatility on bacterial cell invasion.

Project description:Improved diagnostics are necessary to differentiate between multipe potential etiologies of acute illness in a hospitalized patient. The peripheral blood host gene expression response can act as a supplementary diagnostic tool and better inform the full host immune response to a pathogen. We performed RNA sequencing on peripheral blood from 48 hospitalized patients with confirmed candidemia as well as patients with other acute viral, bacterial, and non-infectious illnesses and derived pathogen class-specific gene expression classifiers.
