Project description:Characterization of the human microbiota is providing new insightsinto the complexity of host–parasite–bacterium relationships. Amoebiasis (an intestinal infection affecting a large proportion of the population in many countries worldwide) is caused by the amoebic parasite Entamoeba histolytica. During amoebiasis, the parasite encounters several types of stress as a result of the host’s response to infection. Given that E. histolytica phagocytises bacteria in the intestinal lumen, we hypothesized that enteric bacteria can influence the course of an amoebic infection. Hence, we used live Escherichia coli O55 as a pertinent model of the bacterial community’s contribution to amoebic responses during host- induced stress. By measuring amoebic survival, we found that live E. coli protected E. histolytica against oxidative stress (OS) but not against nitrosative stress. E. coli– associated protection is correlated with massive transcriptionalchanges in amoebic genes acquired through lateral transfer from the bacterial kingdom, including genes coding for proteinscontaining leucine-rich repeat (LRR) motifs. The transcriptome profile triggered by OS and E. coli was also observed with other enteric bacteria, including pathogens and non-pathogens. In contrast, exposure to a probiotic resulted in a different transcriptome profile. The present study shows that OS and live bacteria together modulate 84 of E. histolytica’s 137 LRR protein genes. The LRR proteins are involvedin protein-ligand and protein-protein interactions – especially in proteins that interact with bacteria as part of the innate immune response in mammals and plants, such as Toll-like receptors. The structural and functional homology of LRRs and TLRs identified here suggest that despite its old age in evolutionary terms, the protozoan E. histolytica displays key characteristics of higher eukaryotes’ innate immune systems. We conclude that components of innate immunity existed in the common ancestor of plants and animals

Project description:To know the role of Rab7 isotypes in enteric protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica, one out of nine Rab7 isotypes, Rab7D, was specifically silenced and examined the effect on virulence-related phenotypes. To clarify transcriptomic difference caused by rab7d gene silencing, RNA-seq analysis was conducted.

Project description:To know the role of lysosomal hydrolase receptors in virulecne of enteric protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica, eleven cysteine protease binding protein family (CPBF) proteins were specifically silenced and examined the effect on virulence-related phenotypes. Among them, CPBF2 gene silence caused defect in Matrigel invasion. To clarify transcriptomic difference in CPBF2 gene silenceing strain, RNA-seq analysis was conducted.

Project description:The ability of Entamoeba histolytica to phagocytose host cells correlates to observed virulence in vivo. To better understand the mechanism of phagocytosis we used paramagnetic beads coated with host ligand and sorted trophozoites based on phagocytic ability. Gene expression was then measured in both the sorted phagocytic and non-phagocytic populations using a custom Affymetrix chip for E. histolytica.

Project description:The enteric protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica have high phagocytic ability. Phagocytosis is also important for the pathogenicity of this parasite; molecular mechanisms of phagocytosis and phagosome maturation is focused. Atg8 is well studied autophagy marker protein. We previously shown that E. histolytica Atg8 translocate to nascent trogosomes and expression silencing of the Atg8 caused retardation of phagosome acidification. To investigate how Atg8 regulates phagosome maturation, here we conducted proteome analysis of phagosomes isolated from an E. histolytica strain in which atg8 gene expression are silenced (atg8 gene silenced, atg8-gs) and its mock control strain (transfected with psAP2-Gunma).

Project description:Differential expression was used to access gene differences after Entamoeba histolytica infection. Entamoeba histolytica is an important diarrheal pathogen worldwide, and induces apoptosis of the intestinal epithelium as part of its disease process. Regenerating (REG) 1 protein is anti-apoptotic. We investigated the involvement of REG 1 in E. histolytica colitis. Colonic biopsy samples were obtained from 8 subjects with acute E. histolytica colitis, and again 60 day later during convalescence. Gene expression in the human colon during acute and convalescent E. histolytica disease was evaluated using microarray and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). REG 1 protein expression was evaluated with immunohistochemistry. The mechanism of REG 1 involvement in E. histolytica disease was subsequently investigated with a mouse model. REG 1A and REG 1B were the most upregulated genes in the human intestine in acute versus convalescent E. histolytica disease (p=0.003 and p=0.006 respectively). PCR confirmed the microarray results (p=<0.001 and p=0.001 respectively). Increased REG 1A and REG 1B protein expression was similarly observed by immunohistochemistry. REG 1 -/-mice were found to be significantly more susceptible to E. histolytica infection than wild type mice.

Project description:Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoan parasite that causes colitis and liver abscesses. Several Entamoeba species and strains with differing levels of virulence have been identified. E. histolytica HM-1:IMSS is a virulent strain, E. histolytica Rahman is a nonvirulent strain, and Entamoeba dispar is a nonvirulent species. We used an E. histolytica DNA microarray consisting of 2,110 genes to assess the transcriptional differences between these species/strains with the goal of identifying genes whose expression correlated with a virulence phenotype. We found 415 genes expressed at lower levels in E. dispar and 32 genes with lower expression in E. histolytica Rahman than in E. histolytica HM-1:IMSS. Overall, 29 genes had decreased expression in both the nonvirulent species/strains than the virulent E. histolytica HM-1:IMSS. Interestingly, a number of genes with potential roles in stress response and virulence had decreased expression in either one or both nonvirulent Entamoeba species/strains. These included genes encoding Fe hydrogenase (9.m00419), peroxiredoxin (176.m00112), type A flavoprotein (6.m00467), lysozyme (6.m00454), sphingomyelinase C (29.m00231), and a hypothetical protein with homology to both a Plasmodium sporozoite threonine-asparagine-rich protein (STARP) and a streptococcal hemagglutinin (238.m00054). The function of these genes in Entamoeba and their specific roles in parasite virulence need to be determined. We also found that a number of the non-long-terminal-repeat retrotransposons (EhLINEs and EhSINEs), which have been shown to modulate gene expression and genomic evolution, had lower expression in the nonvirulent species/strains than in E. histolytica HM-1:IMSS. Our results, identifying expression profiles and patterns indicative of a virulence phenotype, may be useful in characterizing the transcriptional framework of virulence.
