Project description:Cecal samples were isolated directly from the ceca of dissected chickens that were either experimentally infected with C. jejuni DRH212 or mock-infected with PBS. Cecal samples were re-suspended in Life Technologies 1X PBS based on weight of sample (1 ml/100 mg = 10-1 dilution) and stored at -80C.

Project description:Inflammatory diseases of the gut are associated with increased intestinal oxygen concentrations and high levels of inflammatory oxidants, including hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and hypochlorous acid (HOCl), which are antimicrobial compounds produced by the innate immune system. This contributes to dysbiotic changes in the gut microbiome, including increased populations of pro-inflammatory enterobacteria (Escherichia coli and related species) and decreased levels of health-associated anaerobic Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. The pathways for H2O2 and HOCl resistance in E. coli have been well-studied, but little is known about how commensal and probiotic bacteria respond to inflammatory oxidants. In this work, we have characterized the transcriptomic response of the anti-inflammatory, gut colonizing Gram-positive probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri to both H2O2 and HOCl. L. reuteri mounts distinct responses to each of these stressors, and both gene expression and survival were strongly affected by the presence or absence of oxygen. Oxidative stress response in L. reuteri required several factors not found in enterobacteria, including the small heat shock protein Lo18, polyphosphate kinase 2, and RsiR, an L. reuteri-specific regulator of anti-inflammatory mechanisms. These results raise the intriguing possibility of developing treatments for inflammatory gut diseases that could sensitize pro-inflammatory enterobacteria to killing by the immune system while sparing anti-inflammatory, health-associated species.

Project description:Here, we report on a novel chicken comb phenotype, designated Antler-comb. Using a 600K Axiom® Genome-Wide Chicken Genotyping Array, we separately genotyped 12 and 24 female Hetian Wildtype-comb and Antler-comb chickens, respectively. Meanwhile, we sequenced the genomes of 10 Hetian Antler-comb and 10 Wildtype-comb chickens to interrogate the GWAS results and explore the potential genetic variants underlying this phenotype. After conducting a genome-wide association study (GWAS), a 36.5-kb candidate genomic region (chromosome 19:757,754-794,200) related to the Antler-comb phenotype was identified, which wholly and partially encompassed heat shock factor 5 (HSF5) and ring finger protein 43 (RNF43), respectively. HSF5 was ectopically expressed and RNF43 was up-regulated in Antler-comb chickens at embryo ages 7 and 9 (E7 and E9). We further genotyped the most significant single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) site, Chr19:794200, across 222 chickens of 16 breeds. We found that the major allele G in Antler-comb chickens remained highly significant across different breeds, and each Antler-comb chicken harbored an allele G. Whole-genome re-sequencing (WGS) involving 10 Hetian Antler-comb and 10 Wildtype-comb chickens reaffirmed the 36.5-kb candidate genomic region, and revealed a genomic duplication, which was 15.7 kb in length and pertained to the 5’-untranslated region and 5’-flanking region of HSF5 (Chr19:784,335-800,034), suggesting its possible role in inducing ectopic expression of HSF5 and altering expression of RNF43 during comb development (E7 and E9). The present study furthers our understanding of this novel chicken comb phenotype, and likely gives another example regarding interactions between genetic variation and phenotype.

Project description:Here, we elucidate a critical microbial-host crosstalk between probiotic-released aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) agonist indole-3-aldehyde (I3A) and CD8 T cells within the tumor microenvironment that potently enhances spontaneous antitumor immunity and facilitates ICI therapy in preclinical melanoma. We used single cell RNA sequencing to phenotype CD8+ T cells within tumors of L. reuteri -treated or untreated mice.

Project description:A lactobacilli dominated microbiota in most pre and post-menopausal women is an indicator of vaginal health. A Nugent scoring system serves as a proxy for determining the ratio of lactobacilli to other vaginal inhabitants where a high score usually represents a diseased state, whilst an intermediate score represents a warning zone. The objective of this double blinded, placebo-controlled crossover study was to evaluate in 14 post-menopausal women with an intermediate score, the effect of vaginal administration of probiotic L. rhamnosus GR-1 and L. reuteri RC-14 on the microbiota and host response. The probiotic treatment did not result in changes to clinical parameters such as dryness, irritation and comfort, compared to when placebo was applied. Analysis using 16S rRNA sequencing and metabolomics profiling revealed that the proportional abundance of Lactobacillus was increased following probiotic administration as compared to placebo, which was weakly associated with an increase in lactate levels. Analysis of host responses by microarray showed the probiotics had an immune-modulatory response and multiplex cytokine analysis showed up-regulation of IL-5. This is the first study to use an interactomic approach for the study of vaginal probiotic administration in post-menopausal women. It shows that in some cases multifaceted approaches are required to detect the subtle trigger molecular changes induced by the host to instillation of probiotic strains. A total of 35 total RNA samples extracted from vaginal brushes were analyzed on Affymetrix Gene 2.0 ST arrays from 14 Participants collected over multiple visits including administration of either a probiotic supplement or placebo control.

Project description:Salmonella remains an important enteric pathogen of poultry, primarily due to concerns regarding food-borne illness in humans consuming contaminated poultry products. Specific probiotic cultures are efficacious as a treatment for neonatal poultry to prevent enteric infections (competitive exclusion) due to the exquisite susceptibility of young chicks to pathogens in the hatchery and brooding environment. The objective of this experiment was to analyze transcriptional profiles in the ceca of neonatal chicks using the Arizona Gallus gallus 20.7K Oligo Array v1.0, following treatment with a probiotic culture derived from poultry with and without Salmonella enterica subsp. Enteritidis (SE) challenge. Chicks were obtained from a commercial hatchery, and challenged with SE upon arrival at the laboratory. One hour post-challenge, chicks were treated with a probiotic culture (FM-B11). Treatment groups included: Control (no challenge or treatment, vehicle only), SE (challenged only), B11 (treated only) and SE+B11 (challenged and treated). Samples were obtained at 12h and 24h post-treatment. We observed that administration of a Lactobacillus-based probiotic culture to chicks following challenge with SE reduced SE colonization of the cecae and resulted in differential expression of genes in the cecae. Among all four treatment groups, 309 genes were differentially expressed (p<0.05) at 12h, and 352 genes were differentially expressed (p<0.05) at 24h. Keywords: disease state analysis
