Project description:Trypanosoma cruzi is a protozoan parasite and the etiologic agent of Chagas disease, an important public health problem in Latin America. T. cruzi is diploid, almost exclusively asexual, and displays an extraordinarily diverse population structure both genetically and phenotypically. Yet, to date the genotypic diversity of T. cruzi and its relationship, if any, to biological diversity have not been studied at the whole genome level. In this study, we used whole genome oligonucleotide tiling arrays to compare gene content in biologically disparate T. cruzi strains by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). We observed that T. cruzi strains display widespread and focal copy number variations (CNV) and a substantially greater level of diversity than can be adequately defined by the current genetic typing methods. As expected, CNV were particularly frequent in gene family-rich regions containing mucins and trans-sialidases but were also evident in core genes. Gene groups that showed little variation in copy numbers among the strains tested included those encoding protein kinases and ribosomal proteins, suggesting these loci were less permissive to CNV. Moreover, frequent variation in chromosome copy numbers were observed, and chromosome-specific CNV signatures were shared by genetically divergent T. cruzi strains, suggesting a greater degree of chromosome exchange than previously thought.

Genomic DNA samples from 16 T. cruzi strains were compared to genomic DNA from the CL Brener strain by competitive hybridizations on whole genome oligonucleotide tiling arrays.

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of umbilical cord blood DNA samples using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC array (approximately 850,000 CpGs). Samples included cord blood samples from infants born to women with (exposed) and without (control) infection with Trypanosoma cruzi parasites, to test for a potential epigenetic effect of in utero exposure to maternal infection.

Project description:Chagas disease is one of the most important neglected diseases with an estimated number of 12 million infected individuals, the majority living in Central and South America. The Trypanosoma cruzi (T.cruzi) protozoan parasite is the etiological agent of Chagas disease. T.cruzi is highly genetically diverse and a new nomenclature assigned each strain to seven genetic groups (TcI-TcVI and Tcbat), named Discrete Typing Units (DTUs), based on their biochemical, immunological and phenotypical characteristics. T.cruzi DTUs have been correlated to diverse clinical outcomes highlighting the importance of molecular epidemiological screens. Despite the development of T.cruzi typing methods based on genetic signatures, each method presenting its own advantages and challenges. The work presented here shows the application of mass spectrometry for Trypanosoma cruzi Strain Typing Assay using MS2 peptide spectral libraries (Tc-STAMS2). The novelty of the method is based on the use of peptide fragmentation spectra as strain-specific fingerprints to classify and identify DTUs. Initially, a spectra library is generated from characterized T.cruzi strains. The library is subsequently inspected using MS/MS spectra from unknown strains and confidently assigned to a specific strain in an automated and computationally-driven approach. The Tc-STAMS2 method was challenged to test several variables such as sample type and preparation, instrument setup and identification platform. Tc-STAMS2 provided high confidence and robustness in T.cruzi strain typing. The Tc-STAMS2 method represents a proof-of-concept of a complementary strategy to the current DNA-based T. cruzi genotyping methods. Moreover, the method allows the identification of strain-specific features that could be related to the biology of T.cruzi strains and their clinical outcomes.

Project description:To provide a global perspective on the relationships between macrophage activation programs and to understand how certain pathogens circumvent them, we used transcriptional profiling by genome wide microarray analysis to compare the responses of mouse macrophages following exposure to the intracellular parasites Trypanosoma cruzi and Leishmania mexicana, the bacterial product lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and the cytokines IFNG, TNF, IFNB, IL-4, IL-10, and IL-17. We found that LPS induced a classical activation state that resembled macrophage stimulation by the Th1 cytokines IFNG and TNF. However, infection by the protozoan pathogen Leishmania mexicana produced so few transcriptional changes that the infected macrophages were almost indistinguishable from uninfected cells. Trypanosoma cruzi activated macrophages produced a transcriptional signature characterized by the induction of interferon-stimulated genes by 24 h post-infection. Despite this delayed IFN response by T. cruzi, the transcriptional response of macrophages infected by the kinetoplastid pathogens more closely resembled the transcriptional response of macrophages stimulated by the cytokines IL-4, IL-10, and IL-17 than macrophages stimulated by Th1 cytokines.

Project description:Unlike other eukaryotes, the protein coding genes of Trypanosoma cruzi are arranged into large polycistronic gene clusters transcribed by polymerase II (Pol II). Thus, trypanosomes rely on post-transcriptional processes to regulate gene expression. Here, we show that the glucosylated thymine DNA base (-D-glucosyl hydroxymethyluracil or base J) is present within sequences flanking the polycistronic units (PTU) in T. cruzi. loss of base J at sites of transcription initiation, via deletion of the two enzymes that regulate J synthesis (JBP1 and JBP2), correlates with an increased rate of Pol II transcription and subsequent genome-wide increase in gene expression. genes include virulence genes and the resulting parasites are defective in host cell invasion and egress. These studies indicate that base J represents an epigenetic factor regulating Pol II transcription initiation in kinetoplastids, and provides the first biological role of the only hyper-modified DNA base in eukaryotes. This entry contains the results using SLT, digital gene expression profiling of tags read off the spliced leader sequence of all mature trypanosomatid messages, for the life-cycle of T. cruzi, four stages, in wild-type as well as JBP1 KO cells.
