Project description:Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a Gram-negative bacterium commonly found in marine and estuarine environments. Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) caused by this bacterium is an ongoing problem among shrimp farming industries. V. parahaemolyticus proteins PirA and PirB have been determined to be major virulence factors that induce AHPND. In this study, Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) were challenged with recombinant PirA and PirB by a reverse gavage method and then at 30 m, 1, 2, 4, and 6 h time points, the hepatopancreas of five individual shrimp were removed and placed into RNA later. We conducted RNA sequencing of the hepatopancreas samples from a no PirA/B control (n = 5) and PirA/B-treated shrimp at the different time intervals (n=5). We evaluated the different gene expression patterns between the time groups to the control with a focus on identifying differences in innate immune function.

Project description:Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) is a shrimp farming disease, caused by a pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus carrying a plasmid encoding Vp_PirAB-like toxin (VpAHPND). Whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei were fed food pellets containing formalin-killed VpAHPND (FKC-VpAHPND) to select for toxin resistance. To identify genes associated with Vp_PirAB-like toxin resistance, total RNA was sequenced to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the stomach and hepatopancreas among surviving shrimp (sur-FKC), AHPND-infected shrimp (Vp-inf) and normal shrimp (control). From a total of 79,591 genes, 194 and 224 DEGs were identified in the stomach and hepatopancreas transcriptomes, respectfully. The expressions of DEGs were validated by qPCR of ten genes. Only one gene, a gene homologous to L vannamei anti-lipopolysaccharide factor AV-R isoform (LvALF AV-R), was expressed significantly more strongly in sur-FKC than in the other groups. The association of LvALF AV-R expression and toxin resistance was affirmed from the surviving shrimp in a second-trial of FKC-VpAHPND feeding. These results suggest that LvALF AV-R may be involved in shrimp defense mechanisms against Vp_PirAB-like toxin virulence.

Project description:BACKGROUND: The intestinal microbiota play a key role in the onset, progression, and recurrence of Crohn’s disease (CD). Most microbiome studies assay fecal material, which does not provide region-specific information on mucosally adherent bacteria that directly interact with host systems. Changes in luminal oxygen has been proposed as a contributor to CD dybiosis. METHODS: 16S rRNA data was generated using colonic and ileal mucosal from patients with CD and without inflammatory bowel diseases (nonIBD). We developed profiles reflecting bacterial abundance within defined aerotolerance categories. Bacterial diversity, composition, and aerotolerance profiles were compared across intestinal regions and disease phenotypes. RESULTS: Bacterial diversity decreased in CD in both ileum and colon. Aerotolerance profiles significantly differed between intestinal segments in nonIBD, though both were dominated by obligate anaerobes, as expected. In CD, high relative levels of obligate anaerobes were maintained in the colon and increased in the ileum. Relative abundance of similar and distinct taxa were altered in colon and ileum. Notably, several obligate anaerobes, such as Bacteroides fragilis, dramatically increased in CD in one or both intestinal segments, though specific increasing taxa varied across patients. Increased abundance of taxa from the Proteobacteria phylum was found only in the ileum. Bacterial diversity was significantly reduced in resected pre-operative tissues of patients that developed disease recurrence across two independent cohorts, with common lower abundance of bacteria from the Bacteroides, Streptococcus, and Blautia genera. CONCLUSIONS: Mucosally adherent bacteria in colon and ileum show distinct alterations in CD that provide additional insights not revealed in fecal material.

Project description:There is continuous interest in the anti-viral immune response of shrimp to prevent bacterial and viral infection. In this study, global expression analysis through microarray was conducted to gain insights about the mechanisms involved in the protection of non-specific double stranded RNA –injected shrimps against infectious diseases. Hemocytes were collected from different shrimp groups injected with PBS (Phosphate buffered saline), siGFP and dsGFP at 12 and 24 hour timepoints. Genes were clustered based on expression and treatment to highlight differences in expression related to the type of injection.
