Project description:Despite the global importance of forests, it is virtually unknown how their soil microbial communities adapt at the phylogenetic and functional level to long term metal pollution. Studying twelve sites located along two distinct gradients of metal pollution in Southern Poland revealed that both community composition (via MiSeq Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes) and functional gene potential (using GeoChip 4.2) were highly similar across the gradients despite drastically diverging metal contamination levels. Metal pollution level significantly impacted microbial community structure (p = 0.037), but not bacterial taxon richness. Metal pollution altered the relative abundance of specific bacterial taxa, including Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Firmicutes, Planctomycetes and Proteobacteria. Also, a group of metal resistance genes showed significant correlations with metal concentrations in soil, although no clear impact of metal pollution levels on overall functional diversity and structure of microbial communities was observed. While screens of phylogenetic marker genes, such as 16S rRNA, provided only limited insight into resilience mechanisms, analysis of specific functional genes, e.g. involved in metal resistance, appeared to be a more promising strategy. This study showed that the effect of metal pollution on soil microbial communities was not straightforward, but could be filtered out from natural variation and habitat factors by multivariate statistical analysis and spatial sampling involving separate pollution gradients.

Project description:Anode-associated multi-species exoelectrogenic biofilms are essential to the function of bioelectrochemical systems (BESs). The investigation of electrode-associated biofilms is critical to advance understanding of the function of individual members within communities that thrive using an electrode as the terminal electron acceptor. This study focusses on the analysis of a model biofilm community consisting of Shewanella oneidensis, Geobacter sulfurreducens and Geobacter metallireducens. The conducted experiments revealed that the organisms can build a stable biofilm on an electrode surface that is rather resilient to changes in the redox potential of the anode surface. The community operated at maximum electron transfer rates with electrode potentials of 0.04 V versus normal hydrogen electrode. Current densities decreased gradually with lower potentials and reached half-maximal values at -0.08 V. A positive interaction of the individual strains could be observed in our experiments. At least S. oneidensis and G. sulfurreducens show an upregulation of their central metabolism as a response to cultivation under mixed-species conditions. Interestingly, G. sulfurreducens was detected in the planktonic phase of the bioelectrochemical reactors only in mixed-culture experiments but not when it was grown in the absence of the other two organisms. It is possible that G. sulfurreducens cells used flavins which were released by S. oneidensis cells as electron shuttles. This would allow the organism to broaden its environmental niche. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study describing the dynamics of biofilm formation of a model exoelectrogenic community, the resilience of the biofilm, and the molecular responses towards mixed-species conditions.

Project description:To understand microbial community functional structures of activated sludge in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and the effects of environmental factors on their structure, 12 activated sludge samples were collected from four WWTPs in Beijing. GeoChip 4.2 was used to determine the microbial functional genes involved in a variety of biogeochemical processes. The results showed that, for each gene category, such as egl, amyA, nir, ppx, dsrA sox and benAB, there were a number of microorganisms shared by all 12 samples, suggestive of the presence of a core microbial community in the activated sludge of four WWTPs. Variance partitioning analyses (VPA) showed that a total of 53% of microbial community variation can be explained by wastewater characteristics (25%) and operational parameters (23%), respectively. This study provided an overall picture of microbial community functional structures of activated sludge in WWTPs and discerned the linkages between microbial communities and environmental variables in WWTPs. Four full-scale wastewater treatment systems located in Beijing were investigated. Triplicate samples were collected in each site.

Project description:ObjectivesOutcomes of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) among HIV-infected older adults are unclear.MethodsAssociations between HIV infection and three CAP outcomes (30-day mortality, readmission within 30 days post-discharge, and hospital length of stay [LOS]) were examined in the Veterans Aging Cohort Study (VACS) of male Veterans, age ≥ 50 years, hospitalized for CAP from 10/1/2002 through 08/31/2010. Associations between the VACS Index and CAP outcomes were assessed in multivariable models.ResultsAmong 117 557 Veterans (36 922 HIV-infected and 80 635 uninfected), 1203 met our eligibility criteria. The 30-day mortality rate was 5.3%, the mean LOS was 7.3 days, and 13.2% were readmitted within 30 days of discharge. In unadjusted analyses, there were no significant differences between HIV-infected and uninfected participants regarding the three CAP outcomes (P > 0.2). A higher VACS Index was associated with increased 30-day mortality, readmission, and LOS in both HIV-infected and uninfected groups. Generic organ system components of the VACS Index were associated with adverse CAP outcomes; HIV-specific components were not. Among HIV-infected participants, those not on antiretroviral therapy (ART) had a higher 30-day mortality (HR 2.94 [95% CI 1.51, 5.72]; P = 0.002) and a longer LOS (slope 2.69 days [95% CI 0.65, 4.73]; P = 0.008), after accounting for VACS Index. Readmission was not associated with ART use (OR 1.12 [95% CI 0.62, 2.00] P = 0.714).ConclusionAmong HIV-infected and uninfected older adults hospitalized for CAP, organ system components of the VACS Index were associated with adverse CAP outcomes. Among HIV-infected individuals, ART was associated with decreased 30-day mortality and LOS.

Project description:Analysis of transcript abundance estimates as a function of child soldier status, PTSD symptoms, and psychological resilience. Gene expression profiling was conducted on dried blood spot (DBS) samples collected from community dwelling adolescents and young adults in Nepal. Approximatley half of the sample were former child soldiers in the Nepal People's War and the other half were demographically similiar civilian non-combatants. In addition to basic demographic characteristics (age, sex, ethnic minority status, social caste status, education level), participants were also assessed on syptoms of post-traumatic stress (PTS, assessed by a culturally adapted version of The Child PTSD Symptom Scale; Kohrt BA, et al. (2011) Validation of cross-cultural child mental health and psychosocial research instruments: adapting the Depression Self-Rating Scale and Child PTSD Symptom Scale in Nepal. BMC Psychiatry 11(1):e127, with higher values indicating greater PTSD symptoms) and psychological resilience (assessed by a culturally adapted version of the Resilience Scale; Wagnild GM & Young HM (1993) Development and psychometric evaluation of the Resilience Scale. Journal of Nursing Measurement, with higher values indicating greater resilience). Dichotomous variables were coded 0=no/absent and 1=yes/present. Valid gene expression data are available for 254 samples.

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most frequent cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Endogenous antimicrobial proteins such as PGLYRP4 might participate to the course of the disease. PGLYRP4 is expressed in different cell types but is downregulated in alveolar epithelial after stimulation with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Interestingly, mice lacking PGLYRP4 displayed an enhanced bacterial clearance in the lungs and less mice develop a bacteremia. We investigated the gene expression in alveolar macrphages and found most top 50 up- and down-regulated genes to be not annotated. Genes which could be annotated seem unlikely to play a major role in the phenotype of PGLYRP4-KO mice. We implemented microarray analysis of infected primary alveolar macrophage cells to identify possible regulated genes by PGLYPR4-deficency, which contribute to the seen phenotype.
