Project description:Candida albicans is a member of the normal commensal flora with the ability to cause disease in susceptible individuals. Nutrient acquisition is of central importance for C. albicans to colonize and thrive in the host. We have previously assessed the role of amino acid utilization for growth and manipulation of pH, triggering the filamentation program and promoting immune evasion. While the role of amino acids has been largely studied, protein utilization has remained less well understood. We investigated the utilization of peptides as a source of carbon and to support the neutralization phenomena. We found that both transcription factors Stp1 and Stp2 are required for proper peptide utilization in a manner dependent of amino acid sensing signaling involving the SPS system. However, we found that Stp2 is the major contributor for this process. Epistasis experiments shown that Stp1 partially restores the ability to utilize peptides in the absence of amino acid signaling, whilst Stp2 is sufficient to fully restore this phenotype. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the response to amino acids and peptides is very similar, but peptides represent a more difficult carbon source to utilize. It is known that the Stp1/Stp2 duet has divergent roles in C. albicans, however the specific set of genes controlled by each TF remained unclear. We showed that the Stp1 regulon is limited to two oligopeptide transporters (OPT1, OPT9), and iron-acquisition oxidoreductase (CFL2), a nucleoside transporter (NUP) and a leucine aminopeptidase (APE2), whereas Stp2 is responsible for the regulation of amino acid uptake and catabolic genes, in a manner dependent of amino acid sensing. Surprisingly, Stp2 affects expression of genes involved in the filamentation response (e.g. UME6, SFL2) that have been associated with host colonization. In a GI tract competition experiment, mutants lacking the amino acid sensor Ssy1 or the TF Stp2 exhibited decreased colonization, while an stp1Δ/Δ mutant showed increase colonization. Taken together, these results highlight the importance of peptide and amino acid utilization for colonization of the host, a prerequisite for disseminated disease.

Project description:Imbalance in beneficial and harmful bacteria underlies gastrointestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease. Here, we demonstrated that certain E. coli strains, specifically adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC), utilize a serine metabolism pathway to outcompete other E. coli strains in the inflamed gut. In contrast, amino acid metabolism has a minimal effect on their competitive fitness in the healthy gut. The availability of luminal serine used for the competition of E. coli is largely dependent on dietary intake, as the inflammation-induced blooms of AIEC are significantly blunted when amino acids, particularly serine, are removed from the diet. Thus, intestinal inflammation regulates the intraspecific competition between Enterobacteriaceae by eliciting their metabolic reprogramming.

Project description:The skin epidermis is constantly renewed throughout life. Disruption of the balance between renewal and differentiation can lead to uncontrolled growth and tumor initiation. Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most frequent cancer in human. Cell competition is a biological process that leads to the elimination of cells by winner cells, which have been proposed to be important for tumour initiation. Recent studies identified somatic mutations in cancer drivers in normal tissues that get colonized by clones carrying oncogenic mutations. However, how the different oncogenic mutations impact the balance between renewal and differentiation and lead to clonal expansion, cell competition, tissue colonization and tumor development is currently unknown. Here, using multidisciplinary approaches combining in vivo clonal analysis using intra-vital microscopy, single cell analysis, and functional analysis, we defined at a single cell resolution in living animals how mutations associated with BCC development (SmoM2) affect clonal competition and tumor initiation in real time. We found that SmoM2 expression in the ear epidermis induces a stereotypical pattern of cell competition with clonal expansion leading tumor initiation and invasion. In contrast, SmoM2 expression in the back skin epidermis led to a similar clonal expansion that induces lateral cell competition but without inducing dermal invasion and tumor formation. Single cell analysis showed that oncogene expression is associated with a cellular reprogramming of adult interfollicular cells into embryonic hair follicle progenitor (EHFP) state in the ear but not in the back skin. Comparison between ear and back skin epidermis revealed a very different composition of the dermis with increased stiffness and a denser collagen 1 network in the back skin. Decreasing Collagen 1 expression in the back skin overcame the natural resistance of these cells to undergo EHFP reprogramming and tumor initiation following SmoM2 expression. Altogether our study demonstrates that ECM composition controls the mode of clonal competition and competence to undergo oncogenic transformation upon oncogene expression.

Project description:Campylobacter jejuni effectively promotes commensalism in the intestinal tract of avian hosts and diarrheal disease in humans, yet components of intestinal environments sensed by the bacterium in either host to initiate interactions are mostly unknown. By analyzing a C. jejuni acetogenesis mutant that is defective in both converting acetyl-CoA to acetate and commensal colonization of young chicks, we discovered evidence for C. jejuni sensing spatial gradients of microbiota-derived short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and organic acids to modulate expression of determinants required for commensalism. We identified in C. jejuni an SCFA-influenced regulon composed by genes encoding catabolic enzymes and transport systems for amino acids C. jejuni requires for in vivo growth. Expression of these genes was reduced in the acetogenesis mutant, but restored upon supplementation with physiological concentrations of SCFAs such as acetate and butyrate that are present in the lower intestinal tract of avian and human hosts. Conversely, the organic acid lactate, which is abundant in the upper intestinal tract of these hosts where C. jejuni less efficiently colonizes reduced expression of this regulon. We propose a model whereby C. jejuni senses microbiota-produced SCFAs and lactate for spatial orientation in the avian and human host. Sensing these metabolites likely allows C. jejuni to locate preferred niches in the lower intestinal tract and induce expression of factors required for in vivo growth. Our findings provide insights into the types of signals C. jejuni monitors in the avian host for commensalism and likely in the human host to promote diarrheal disease.

Project description:Disease outbreaks due to the consumption of legume seedlings contaminated with human enteric bacterial pathogens like Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella enterica are reported every year. We found surface and internal colonization of Medicago truncatula by Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli O157:H7 even with inoculum levels as low as two bacteria per plant. Expression analyses using microarray revealed that some Medicago truncatula genes were regulated in a similar manner in response to both of these enteric pathogens. Medicago truncatula roots were inoculated with low inoculum levels of two enteric bacteria per plant (E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella). 10 days post inoculated plants were used for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
