Evolution of immune genes is associated with the Black Death.

Project description:Infectious diseases are among the strongest selective pressures driving human evolution1,2. This includes the single greatest mortality event in recorded history, the first outbreak of the second pandemic of plague, commonly called the Black Death, which was caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis3. This pandemic devastated Afro-Eurasia, killing up to 30-50% of the population4. To identify loci that may have been under selection during the Black Death, we characterized genetic variation around immune-related genes from 206 ancient DNA extracts, stemming from two different European populations before, during and after the Black Death. Immune loci are strongly enriched for highly differentiated sites relative to a set of non-immune loci, suggesting positive selection. We identify 245 variants that are highly differentiated within the London dataset, four of which were replicated in an independent cohort from Denmark, and represent the strongest candidates for positive selection. The selected allele for one of these variants, rs2549794, is associated with the production of a full-length (versus truncated) ERAP2 transcript, variation in cytokine response to Y. pestis and increased ability to control intracellular Y. pestis in macrophages. Finally, we show that protective variants overlap with alleles that are today associated with increased susceptibility to autoimmune diseases, providing empirical evidence for the role played by past pandemics in shaping present-day susceptibility to disease.

Revealing the immune perturbation of black phosphorus nanomaterials to macrophages by understanding the protein corona

Project description:The increasing number of biological applications for black phosphorus (BP) nanomaterials has precipitated considerable concern about their interactions with physiological systems. Here, we demonstrate the adsorption of plasma protein onto BP nanomaterials and the subsequent immune perturbation effect on macrophages. Using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry, we discovered that BP nanosheets (BPNSs) were able to bind 23.3 percent of immune proteins from plasma, while BP quantum dots (BPQDs) bound 41.8 percent of immune proteins. In particular, the protein corona dramatically reshaped BP nanomaterial-corona complexes, influenced cellular uptake, activated the NF-κB pathway and even increased cytokine secretion by 2-5-fold. BP nanomaterials induced immunotoxicity and immune perturbation in macrophages in the presence of a plasma corona. These findings offer important insights into the development of safe and effective BP nanomaterial-based therapies.

Plasma cells are enriched in localized prostate cancer in black men and are associated with improved outcomes [Discovery Cohort]

Project description:Black men die more often of prostate cancer (PC) yet, interestingly, may derive greater survival benefits from immunotherapy. Since no signatures of immune-responsiveness exist for PC, we explored race-based immune-profiles to identify vulnerabilities. Black men have increases in plasma cell infiltrate and associated augmented NK cell and IgG activity. These findings are associated with improved survival and nominate plasma cells as drivers of PC immune-responsiveness.

Comparison of transcriptomic profiles in natural populations of rodents (house mouse and black rat) along invasion routes in Senegal

Project description:We compared gene expression proﬁles between anciently and recently established populations of two major invading species, the black rat Rattus rattus and the house mouse Mus musculus musculus, in Senegal. Transcriptome analyses revealed respectively 364 and 83 differentially expressed genes along the mouse and rat invasion routes. Among them, 10 and 15% were annotated with functions related to immunity. All immune-related genes detected along the mouse invasion route were over-expressed at the invasion front. Genes of the complement activation pathway were over-represented. Results were less straightforward when considering the black rat. No particular immune pathway was over-represented. In conclusion, we revealed changes in transcriptomic profiles along invasion routes. Patterns differed between invaders. They could potentially be driven by increased infection risks at invasion front for the house mouse and trade-offs between immune responses for the black rat. Our results provide a first step in identifying the immune ecoevolutionary processes potentially involved in invasion success.
