Project description:Host gene and protein expression impact susceptibility to clinical malaria, but the balance of immune cell populations, cytokines and genes that contributes to protection, remains incompletely understood. To identify determinants of host susceptibility to clinical malaria at a time when acquired immunity is developing, we analyzed peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from children who differed in susceptibility to clinical malaria, all from a small town in Mali. PBMCs were collected from children aged 4-6 years at the start, peak and end of the malaria season. We characterized the immune cell composition and cytokine secretion for a subset of 20 children per timepoint (10 children with no symptomatic malaria age-matched to 10 children with >2 symptomatic malarial illnesses), and gene expression patterns for six children (three per cohort) per timepoint. We noted higher frequency of HLA-DR+ CD4 T cells in protected children during the peak of the malaria season and comparable levels cytokine secretion after stimulation with malaria schizonts across all three time points. We also observed differences between the two groups of children in the expression of genes related to cell death and inflammation; in particular, inflammatory genes such as CXCL10 and STAT1 and apoptotic genes such as XAF1 were upregulated in susceptible children before the transmission season began. This suggests that differences in apoptotic and inflammatory gene expression patterns can predict susceptibility to clinical malaria.

Project description:In a phase 3 trial in African infants/children, the RTS,S/AS01 (GSK) vaccine showed moderate efficacy against clinical malaria. We aimed to identify RTS,S/AS01-induced signatures associated with clinical malaria by analyzing antigen-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells sampled from a subset of trial participants at baseline and month 3 (one month post-final dose). RTS,S/AS01 vaccination was associated with downregulation of B-cell and monocyte-related blood transcriptional modules (BTMs) and upregulation of T-cell related BTMs, as well as higher month 3 (vs baseline) (CSP)-specific CD4+ T-cell responses. For some RTS,S/AS01-associated BTMs, month 3 levels correlated with anti-circumsporozoite protein (CSP) IgM and inversely with anti-CSP IgG responses. There were few RTS,S/AS01-associated BTMs whose month 3 levels correlated with malaria risk. In contrast, baseline levels of dendritic cell and monocyte RTS,S/AS01-associated BTMs correlated with malaria risk. A cross-study analysis supported generalizability of these correlations to healthy, malaria-naïve adults, suggesting inflammatory monocytes may inhibit protective RTS,S/AS01-induced responses.

Project description:<p>Malaria, caused by <em>Plasmodium</em> species, remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality globally. Gut bacteria can influence the severity of malaria, but the contribution of specific bacteria to the risk of severe malaria is unknown. Here, multiomics approaches demonstrate specific species of <em>Bacteroides</em> are causally linked to the risk of severe malaria. <em>Plasmodium yoelii</em> hyperparasitemia-resistant mice gavaged with murine-isolated <em>Bacteroides fragilis</em> develop <em>P. yoelii</em> hyperparasitemia. Moreover, <em>Bacteroides</em> are significantly more abundant in Ugandan children with severe malarial anemia than with asymptomatic <em>P. falciparum</em> infection. Human isolates of <em>Bacteroides caccae</em>, <em>Bacteroides uniformis</em>, and <em>Bacteroides ovatus</em> but not <em>Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron</em> caused susceptibility to severe malaria in mice. However, the pathogenic potential of gut <em>Bacteroides</em> towards susceptibility to severe malaria is dependent on additional gut microbiota, indicating a consortium effect in severe malaria. Approaches that target gut <em>Bacteroides</em> may present an opportunity to prevent severe malaria and associated deaths.</p>

Project description:Although respiratory distress is a common complication of severe malaria, little is known about the underlying molecular basis of lung dysfunction. Animal models have provided powerful insights into the pathogenesis of severe malaria syndromes such as cerebral malaria; however, no model of malaria-induced lung injury has been definitively established. This work used bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), histopathology and gene expression analysis to examine the development of acute lung injury (ALI) in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA). BAL fluid of PbA-infected C57BL/6 mice revealed a significant increase in IgM and total protein prior to the development of cerebral malaria (CM), indicating disruption of the alveolar-capillary membrane barrier – the physiological hallmark of acute lung injury (ALI). In contrast to sepsis-induced ALI, BAL fluid cell counts remained constant with no infiltration of neutrophils. Histopathology showed septal inflammation without cellular transmigration into the alveolar spaces. Microarray analysis comparing malaria-induced ALI with sepsis-induced ALI identified several common gene ontology groups characterizing ALI in these models, including defense and immune response. Severity of malaria-induced ALI varied in a panel of inbred mouse strains, and development of ALI correlated with peripheral parasite burden but not CM susceptibility. CD36-/- mice, which have decreased parasite lung sequestration, were relatively protected from ALI. In summary, parasite burden and CD36-mediated sequestration in the lung are primary determinants of ALI in experimental murine malaria. Furthermore, differential susceptibility of mouse strains to malaria-induced ALI and CM indicate that distinct genetic determinants likely regulate susceptibility to these two important causes of malaria-associated morbidity and mortality.

Project description:Gene expression patterns were investigated in well-defined genetically cerebral malaria-resistant (CM-R) and cerebral malaria-susceptible (CM-S) mouse strains. cDNA microarrays were used to search for differentially expressed genes in mouse brain. Four mouse strains, known to differ in susceptibility to cerebral malaria upon Plasmodium berghei ANKA infection, were compared: BALB/c and DBA/2 mice are CM-R, while C57BL/6 and CBA/J mice are CM-S.

Project description:Few genotype-phenotype associations identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been defined mechanistically, precluding thorough assessment of their impact on human health. We conducted an expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping analysis in human erythroblasts and found erythroid-specific eQTLs for ATP2B4, the main calcium ATPase of red blood cells (RBC). The same SNPs were previously associated with mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and susceptibility to severe malaria infection. We showed that Atp2b4-/- mice demonstrate increased MCHC, confirming ATP2B4 as the causal gene at this GWAS locus. Using CRISPR-Cas9, we fine-mapped the genetic signal to an erythroid-specific enhancer bound by GATA1 and TAL1. These results illustrate the importance to combine transcriptome, epigenome, and genome editing approaches in phenotype-relevant cells to characterize non-coding regulatory elements associated with human complex diseases and traits. Our studies suggest ATP2B4 as a potential target to modulate RBC hydration in erythroid disorders and malaria infection.

Keywords: Time course Lungs were excised immediately following euthanasia, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at â80°C until use. Total RNA was extracted using Trizol reagent (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturerâs instructions, and mRNA was purified using an Oligo-dT cellulose column (NEB, Mississauga, ON) as described previously [54]. cDNA with incorporated 5-(3-aminoallyl)-2âdeoxyuridine-5â-triphosphate (AAdUTP; Sigma, Oakville ON) was reverse-transcribed from 1-2 µg mRNA. Purified cDNA was coupled with N-hydroxysuccinimide esters of Cy3 or Cy5 (GE Lifesciences, Baie d'Urfe QC). Cy3 and Cy5-labeled cDNA pairs and Agilent control spots were added to a final volume of 0.5ml hybridization buffer (1 M NaCl, 0.5% sodium sarcosine, 50 mM methyl ethane sulfonate (MES), pH 6.5, 33% formamide and 40µg salmon sperm DNA (Invitrogen)). Hybridizations were performed in Agilent hybridization (Agilent, Palo Alto CA) chambers at 42°C with rotation for 18-24 hours. Slides were washed in 6X SSPE, 0.005% sarcosine, followed by 0.06X SSPE, allowed to dry and scanned with a 4000A microarray scanner (Axon Instruments, Union City CA). TIFF images were quantified with GenePix (Axon Instruments). Variance stabilizing normalization [55] and loess smoothing were applied in Bioconductor [56] and the data were transformed to log2 scale. Each array was hybridized with cDNA transcribed from an RNA pool of 5 C57BL/6 mice per timepoint (Day 0 and 6) and technical replicates (dye-swap) experiments were performed for both time points.
