Project description:We propose a novel approach for FPOP data analysis, utilizing DIA data. The HbHp protein complex was analyzed by FPOP and measured on timsToF SCP in DIA, DDA and MS modes. The IDs of modified peptides were quantified for each acquisition mode and the extent of modification was calculated on the level of peptides. The reproducibility was evaluated by coefficients of variation.This work was mainly financially supported by the Czech Science Foundation (22-27695S), the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic (ODEEP-EU TH86010001), the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic grant PHOTOMACHINES - Photosynthetic cell redesign for high yields of therapeutic peptides (CZ.02.01.01/00/22_008/0004624) and the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (RVO: 61388971).
Project description:Background: It remains unclear how high-risk Escherichia coli lineages, like sequence type (ST) 131, initially adapt to carbapenem exposure in its progression to becoming carbapenem resistant. Methods: Carbapenem mutation frequency was measured in multiple subclades of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) positive ST131 clinical isolates using a fluctuation assay followed by whole genome sequencing (WGS) characterization. Genomic, transcriptomic, and porin analyses of ST131 C2/H30Rx isolate, MB1860, under prolonged, increasing carbapenem exposure was performed using two distinct experimental evolutionary platforms to measure fast vs. slow adaptation. Results: All thirteen ESBL positive ST131 strains selected from a diverse (n=184) ST131 bacteremia cohort had detectable ertapenem (ETP) mutational frequencies with a statistically positive correlation between initial ESBL gene copy number and mutation frequency (r = 0.87, P<1e-5). WGS analysis of mutants showed initial response to ETP exposure resulted in significant increases in ESBL gene copy numbers or mutations in outer membrane porin (Omp) encoding genes in the absence of ESBL gene amplification with subclade specific adaptations. In both experimental evolutionary platforms, MB1860 responded to initial ETP exposure by increasing blaCTX-M-15 copy numbers via modular, insertion sequence 26 (IS26) mediated pseudocompound transposons (PCTns). Transposase activity driven by PCTn upregulation was a conserved expression signal in both experimental evolutionary platforms. Stable mutations in Omp encoding genes were detected only after prolonged increasing carbapenem exposure consistent with clinical observations. Conclusions: ESBL gene amplification is a conserved response to initial carbapenem exposure, especially within the high-risk ST131 C2 subclade. Targeting such amplification could assist with mitigating carbapenem resistance development.

Project description:Generation of a new library of targeted mass spectrometry assays for accurate protein quantification in malignant and normal kidney tissue. Aliquots of primary tumor tissue lysates from 86 patients with initially localized renal cell carcinoma (RCC), 75 patients with metastatic RCC treated with sunitinib or pazopanib in the first line and 17 adjacent normal tissues treated at Masaryk Memorial Cancer Institute (MMCI) in Brno, Czech Republic, or University Hospital Pilsen (UHP), Czech Republic, were used to generate the spectral library. Two previously published datasets (dataset A and B) and two newly generated RCC datasets (dataset C and D) were analyzed using the newly generated library showing increased number of quantified peptides and proteins, depending on the size of the library and LC-MS/MS instrumentation. This PRIDE project also includes quantitative analysis results for all four datasets and raw files for dataset C and D. Dataset A is characterized in DOI: 10.1038/nm.3807. It consists of 18 samples from 9 RCC patients involving one cancer and non-cancerous sample per patient. Dataset B is characterized in DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines9091145. It consists of 16 tumor samples and 16 adjacent normal tissues from 16 mRCC patients treated at Masaryk Memorial Cancer Institute (MMCI) in Brno, Czech Republic. Dataset C involves only tumor tissues from dataset B. Half of them responded to sunitinib treatment in the first line three months after treatment initiation and half did not. Dataset D involves 16 RCC patients treated at University Hospital Pilsen (UHP), Czech Republic. All were localized at the time of initial diagnosis, half of the tumors developed distant metastasis in five years after the diagnosis.
Project description:These arrays were done in a study to probe Y-by-parent-of-origin effects on gene expression across two geographically diverse (Ohio, USA and Republic of Congo, Africa) Y-chromosome lineages (Cs or Con), and two modes of Y chromosome transmission (paternally or maternally).
Project description:Main objective is to improve colorectal cancer (CRC) screening programme in the Czech Republic and decrease the disease incidence and mortality. The secondary aim is to verify the effectiveness of incorporation of the new minimally invasive device in the prevention programme.
