Project description:Field-selected tolerance to heavy metals has been reported for Orchesella cincta (Arthropoda: Collembola) populations occurring at metal-contaminated mining sites. This tolerance is correlated with heritable increase of metal excretion efficiency; less pronounce cadmium induced growth reduction and, over-expression of the metallothionein gene. We applied transcriptomics to determine differential gene expression caused by this abiotic stress in reference and cadmium tolerant populations. Many cDNAs responded to cadmium exposure in a reference population. Significantly fewer clones were cadmium responsive in tolerant animals. Analysis of variance revealed transcripts that interact between cadmium exposure and population. Hierarchical clustering of these clones revealed two major groups. The first one contained cDNAs that were up regulated by cadmium in the reference culture, but non-responsive or down regulated in tolerant animals. This cluster was also characterized by elevated constitutive expression in the tolerant population. Gene ontology analysis revealed that these cDNAs were involved in structural integrity of the cuticle, anti-microbial defense, calcium-channel blocking, neurotransmitter transport, chromatin remodeling and, endoplasmatic vesicle activity. The second group consisted of cDNAs down regulated in reference animals but not responding or slightly up regulated in tolerant animals. Their functions involved carbohydrate metabolic processes, Ca2+ dependent stress signaling, proteolysis and digestion. The reference population showed a strong signature of stress-induced genome-wide perturbation of gene expression, whereas the tolerant animals maintained normal gene expression upon cadmium exposure. We confirmed the micro-evolutionary processes occurring in soil arthropod populations and suggest a major contribution of gene regulation to the evolution of a stress-adapted phenotype.

We confirmed the micro-evolutionary processes occurring in soil arthropod populations and suggest a major contribution of gene regulation to the evolution of a stress-adapted phenotype. Orchesella cincta (Collembola) from the laboratory population (LC) at the department of Animal Ecology, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam were taken as the reference group. This population originated from a pine forest from the reference area (Roggebotzand, the Netherlands, latitude N = 52 º 34’17’’, longitude E = 5 º 47’56’’) that contains on average < 0.5 μg cadmium per gram litter and humus. Tolerant animals were collected from randomly selected litter samples at two areas of the abandoned, but still heavily polluted lead/zinc mining site of Plombières (Belgium, latitude N = 50˚44’03’’, longitude E = 5˚58’02’’): the locations contain an average cadmium concentration between 10 and 52 μg.g-1 soil (Lock et al. 2003; Sterenborg 2003; Van Straalen et al. 1987). To diminish putative environmental effects from the field the animals were reared in a climate room (20°C, 75% humidity, LD 12 h:12 h) in PVC jars on a moist plaster of Paris layer feeding on algae present on twigs for at least three generations before experimental treatment. Animals were exposed to cadmium (nominal concentration of 112,4 μg cadmium.g-1 dry algae) for 3 days, directly after molting, via algal food. Control groups received the same treatment except that water was spiked into the algal food instead of cadmium solution. The cadmium exposure concentration is two times the no observed effect concentration (NOEC) for reproduction in chronically exposed animals. Total RNA was extracted from times 12 pooled animals per treatment using SV Total RNA Isolation system (Promega) and quantified on a Nanodrop ND-1000 Spectrophotometer (Nanodrop Technologies). Total RNA was visualized on a 1.5% agarose gel to verify its integrity. Each experimental group (pool of 12 animals) was replicated 8 times. Dyes were swapped between biological replicates: 4 Cy-3 labeled replicates and 4 Cy-5 lebeled replicates per experimental group Microarray experiment was designed in a closed loop Lab culture clean vs Cd, Lab culture Cd vs Tolerant culture Cd, Tolerant culture Cd vs Tolerant culture clean, Tolerant culture clean vs lab culture clean

Project description:Metals at high concentrations can exert toxic effects on microorganisms. It has been widely reported that lowering environmental pH reduces effects of cadmium toxicity in bacteria. Understanding the effects of pH-mediated cadmium toxicity on bacteria would be useful for minimizing cadmium toxicity in the environment and gaining insight into the interactions between organic and inorganic components of life. Growth curve analysis confirmed that cadmium was less toxic to Escherichia coli at pH 5 than at pH 7 in M9 minimal salts medium. To better understand the cellular mechanisms by which lowering pH decreases cadmium toxicity, we used DNA microarrays to characterize global gene expression patterns in E. coli in response to cadmium exposure at moderately acidic (5) and neutral (7) values of pH. Higher expression of several stress response genes including hdeA, otsA, and yjbJ at pH 5 after only 5 minutes was observed and may suggest that acidic pH more rapidly induces genes that confer cadmium resistance. Genes involved in transport were more highly expressed at pH 7 than at pH 5 in the presence of cadmium. Of the genes that showed an interaction between pH and cadmium effects, 46% encoded hypothetical proteins, which may have novel functions involved in mitigating cadmium toxicity.

Project description:Kaiser2014 - Salmonella persistence after ciprofloxacin treatment
The model describes the bacterial tolerance to antibiotics. Using a mouse model for Salmonella diarrhea, the authors have found that bacterial persistence occurs in the presence of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin because Salmonella can exist in two different states. One, the fast-growing population that spreads in the host's tissues and the other, slow-growing "persister" population that hide out inside dendritic cells of the host's immune system and cannot be attacked by the antibiotics. However, this can be killed by adding agents that directly stimulate the host's immune defense.
This model is described in the article:

Abstract:
In vivo, antibiotics are often much less efficient than ex vivo and relapses can occur. The reasons for poor in vivo activity are still not completely understood. We have studied the fluoroquinolone antibiotic ciprofloxacin in an animal model for complicated Salmonellosis. High-dose ciprofloxacin treatment efficiently reduced pathogen loads in feces and most organs. However, the cecum draining lymph node (cLN), the gut tissue, and the spleen retained surviving bacteria. In cLN, approximately 10%-20% of the bacteria remained viable. These phenotypically tolerant bacteria lodged mostly within CD103⁺CX₃CR1⁻CD11c⁺ dendritic cells, remained genetically susceptible to ciprofloxacin, were sufficient to reinitiate infection after the end of the therapy, and displayed an extremely slow growth rate, as shown by mathematical analysis of infections with mixed inocula and segregative plasmid experiments. The slow growth was sufficient to explain recalcitrance to antibiotics treatment. Therefore, slow-growing antibiotic-tolerant bacteria lodged within dendritic cells can explain poor in vivo antibiotic activity and relapse. Administration of LPS or CpG, known elicitors of innate immune defense, reduced the loads of tolerant bacteria. Thus, manipulating innate immunity may augment the in vivo activity of antibiotics.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in regulating the expression of various stress responses genes in plant. To investigate soybean (Glycine max) miRNAs involved in the response to cadmium (Cd), microarrays containing 953 unique miRNA probes were employed to identify differences in the expression patterns of the miRNA between different genotypes, Huaxia3 (HX3, Cd-tolerant) and Zhonghuang24 (ZH24, Cd-sensitive). A total of 26 Cd-responsive miRNAs were identified, of which nine were detected in both cultivars, while five were expressed only in HX3 and 12 were only in ZH24. In the study presented here, four root samples from two contrast soybean cultivars, HX3 (Cd-tolerant) and ZH24 (Cd-sensitive), with or without (Cd) cadmium, harvested at 6, 12, 24, 48, 96 and 144 h after the initiation of Cd treatment, was used to acquire expression profiles of a total of 953 unique genes, leading to the successful construction of supervised.

Project description:Verbena bonariensis is a species with excellent garden plant, good environmental adaptability and great potential for future development.Cadmium has caused serious heavy metal pollution in the soil, which has posed a great threat to plant growth. In this study, Illumina sequencing technology was used to sequence the transcriptome of Verbena bonariensis leaf under normal and Cd stress, respectively. In total, 95,013 transcripts and 63021 genes with an average length of 923 bp and 1,246 bp were constructed from the clean sequence reads, respectively. And 1037 DEGs were found in response to cadmium treatment, of which 10 were selected for qRT-PCR. In conclusion, this study first identified the Verbena bonariensis as a heavy metal tolerant plant and provided the first large-scale transcriptional data set in response to cadmium stress. Our research will help to understand the mechanism of resistance to Cd in the Verbena bonariensis and provide clues for further studies on the relationships between plants and heavy metals in other Verbenaceae plants.
