Project description:Cocoa protein content is a very interesting source for isolation of antioxidant bio-peptides, which can be used for the prevention of age-related diseases. We use microarrays to study the global genome expression of C. elegans fed with a peptide (13L) isolated from cocoa.

Project description:Cocoa intake has been associated with health benefits, improving cardiovascular function and metabolism, as well as modulating intestinal immune function. The aim of this study was to take an in-depth look into the mechanisms affected by the cocoa intake by evaluating the colonic gene expression after nutritional intervention, and to ascertain the role of the fiber of cocoa in these effects. To achieve this, Wistar rats were fed for 3-weeks with either a reference diet, a diet containing 10% cocoa (C10), a diet based on cocoa fiber (CF) or a diet containing inulin (I). At the end of the study, colon was excised to obtain the RNA to evaluate the differential gene expression by microarray. Results were validated by RT-PCR. The C10 group was the group with most changes in colonic gene expression, most of them down-regulated but a few in common with the CF diet. The C10 diet significantly up-regulated the expression of Scgb1a1 and Scnn1g and down-regulated Tac4, Mcpt2, Fcer1a and Fabp1 by twofold, most of them related to lipid metabolism and immune function. The CF and I diets down-regulated the expression of Serpina10 and Apoa4 by twofold. Similar patterns of expression were found by PCR. Cocoa consumption down-regulated genes related to the immune system (B cell and mast cell functionality), lipid metabolism in the colon tissue. Most of the beneficial effects attributed to cocoa were due not only to its fiber content, but also to the possible contribution of polyphenols and other compounds.

Project description:This project aims to analyse the proteins of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released by a Serratia bacteria strain Su_YN1, which is isolated from field-caught mosquito gut. Su_YN1 produces massive OMVs under host serum induction. The data contain LC-MSMS results of the OMVs released without serum induction (WT-), and serum induced OMVs of WT strain (WT+) and several gene disruption strains (disruption of the ABC transporter genes ABC1 and ABC2). This project was conducted by CEMPS lab and Shanghai hoogen biotech co.ltd. The CEMPS lab prepared the purified OMV samples and Shanghai hoogen biotech co.ltd conducted the LC-MSMS analysis.

Project description:Cocoa is a crop of cultural, nutritional and social importance in Latin America. Cocoa production is mainly supported by smallholders and is central for the food security of these farmer families. Despite being part of their everyday diet and an important source of antioxidants and other healthy bioactive compounds, cocoa cropping is also a solid source of stable incomes supporting the livelihood of farmer families. Water deficit stress is one of the main limiting factors affecting crop yields. The ability of plants to tolerate or recover from the effects associated with this abiotic stress is of immense importance in terms of improvement in the context of climate change. Despite the emergence of functional genomics and phenotyping tools to approach these responses, many of these mechanisms are still little understood for many tropical food crops such as cocoa. For a transcriptomic analysis were selected 2 cocoa genotypes, from a hydric stress assay established in a greenhouse. 5-month-old plants of T. cacao of the genotypes EET 8 and TSH565 were tested for water deficit trial. A divided plot experimental design was applied: the hydric state of the 2 genotypes was evaluated with two levels: field capacity and water deficit by irrigation suspension during a period that generates severe stress (Leaf Water Potential of -3.0 Mpa). The irrigation suspension lasted 52 days.

Project description:Cocoa consumption is associated with beneficial effects on human health. This has been attributed to its polyphenol components and their oligomers, which have been shown to decrease the risk of cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases, metabolic disorders, and to play a role in cancer prevention. We tested cocoa modulation on the gene expression profile of colon cancer HT-29 cells using Affymetrix microarrays. Among the genes differentially expressed in HT-29 cells upon incubation with cocoa extract, 48 were identified as Interferon regulated genes using the INTERFEROME database. Furthermore, a BAN constructed using the Pathway Architect software revealed that STAT1, IF44 and AGT were all highly interconnected nodes.
