Project description:Background: Macrophages represent an important part of the immune system in the intestine and are crucial for maintaining homeostasis. As part of research investigating the effect of dietary fibres on the intestinal immune barrier THP-1 macrophages were used as model system. Methods: THP-1 monocytes were stimulated for 48 hours with 100 ng/ml PMA and 48 hours rested in medium. Subsequently, they were stimulated with 500 ug/ml dietary fibres and the maximal observed LPS contamination to serve as background control. After 6 hours, total RNA was extracted and Affymterix Human Gene 1.1 ST arrays were used to analyze the gene expression profiles. To identify dietary fibre induced gene expression profiles in dietary fibre gene responses were compared to medium samples. Furthermore, to analyse differentiatlly affected pathways Ingenuite Pathway Analysis was employed. Results: There was a clear difference in significantly differentially expressed genes (gene cut-off p<0.05) with beta-glucan oat medium viscosity and GOS changing transcription of a relative small amount of genes and Sugar beet pectin and Resistant starch a relative large amount of genes. These latter two were also the only dietary fibres to demonstrate an increase in Fc-receptor-related pathway activation. Alternatively, beta-glucan oat medium viscosity and GOS were the only dietary fibres to activate pathways related to cellular movement and the only two to not activate the Ahr-signaling pathway (p<0.05). Conclusion: our data indicate that the in vitro THP-1 macrophage model can be used to differentiate in immunomodulatory potential of dietary fibres and provide hypotheses for functional differentiation.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.

Project description:Increasing the consumption of dietary fibre has been proposed to alleviate the progression of non-communicable diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, yet the effect of dietary fibre on host physiology remains unclear. In this study, we performed a multiple diet feeding study in C57BL/6J mice to compare high fat and high fat modified with dietary fibre diets on host physiology and gut homeostasis by combining proteomic, metagenomic, metabolomic and glycomic techniques with correlation network analysis. We observed significant changes in physiology, liver proteome, gut microbiota and SCFA production in response to high fat diet. Dietary fibre modification did not reverse these changes but was associated with specific changes in the gut microbiota, liver proteome, SCFA production and colonic mucin glycosylation. Furthermore, correlation network analysis identified gut bacterial-glycan associations.

Project description:As the evolution of miRNA genes has been found to be one of the important factors in formation of the modern type of man, we performed a comparative analysis of the evolution of miRNA genes in two archaic hominines, Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova, and elucidated the expression of their target mRNAs in bain.A comparative analysis of the genomes of primates, including species in the genus Homo, identified a group of miRNA genes having fixed substitutions with important implications for the evolution of Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova. The mRNAs targeted by miRNAs with mutations specific for Homo sapiens denisova exhibited enhanced expression during postnatal brain development in modern humans. By contrast, the expression of mRNAs targeted by miRNAs bearing variations specific for Homo sapiens neanderthalensis was shown to be enhanced in prenatal brain development.Our results highlight the importance of changes in miRNA gene sequences in the course of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis evolution. The genetic alterations of miRNAs regulating the spatiotemporal expression of multiple genes in the prenatal and postnatal brain may contribute to the progressive evolution of brain function, which is consistent with the observations of fine technical and typological properties of tools and decorative items reported from archaeological Denisovan sites. The data also suggest that differential spatial-temporal regulation of gene products promoted by the subspecies-specific mutations in the miRNA genes might have occurred in the brains of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, potentially contributing to the cultural differences between these two archaic hominines.
