Assessing the distribution of 16S rRNA gene sequences within a biological sample represents the current state-of-the-art for determination of human gut microbiota composition. Advances in dissecting the microbial biodiversity of this ecosystem have very much been dependent on the development of novel high-throughput DNA sequencing technologies, like the Ion Torrent. However, the precise representation of this bacterial community may be affected by the protocols used for DNA extraction as well as by the PCR primers employed in the amplification reaction. Here, we describe an optimized protocol for 16S rRNA gene-based profiling of the fecal microbiota. 相似文献

Microspore-derived embryos produced from cork oak anther cultures after long-term incubations (up to 10-12 months) were analysed in order to determine the genetic variability and ploidy level stability, as well as morphology, developmental pattern and cellular organisation. Most of the embryos from long-term anther cultures were haploid (90.7%), corresponding to their microspore origin. The presence of a low percentage of diploid embryos (7.4%) was observed. Microsatellite analysis of haploid embryos, indicated different microspores origins of the same anther. In the diploid embryos, homozygosity for different alleles was detected from anther wall tissues, excluding the possibility of clonal origin. The maintenance of a high proportion of haploid embryos, in long-term anther cultures, is similar in percentage to that reported in embryos originating after 20 days of plating (Bueno et al. 1997). This suggests that no significant alterations in the ploidy level occurred during long incubations (up to 12 months). These results suggest that ploidy changes are rare in this in vitro system, and do not significantly increase during long-term cultures. Microscopical studies of the microspore embryos in various stages revealed a healthy and well developed anatomy with no aberrant or chimeric structures. The general morphology of embryos appearing at different times after plating, looked similar to that of earlier embryos, as well as the zygotic embryos, indicating that they represent high quality material for cork oak breeding. 相似文献

Brucella suis is responsible for swine brucellosis worldwide.Of the five different 8.suis biovars (bv.), bv.2 appears restricted to Europe where it is frequently isolated from wild boar and hares, can infect pigs and can cause human brucellosis.In this study, the differ-ential gene expression profile was characterized in spleens of Eurasian wild boar naturally infected with B.suis by.2.Of the 20,201 genes analyzed in the microarray, 633 and 1,373 were significantly (fold change>1.8; P<0.01) upregulated and downregulated, respectively,in infected wild boar.The analysis was focused on genes that were over represented after conditional test for biological process gene on-tology.Upregulated genes suggested that B.suis bv.2 infection induced cell maturation, migration and/or proliferation in infected animals.The genes downregulated in infected wild boar impaired the activity of several important cellular metabolic pathways such as metabolism,cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis, immune response and lysosomal function and vesicle-mediated transport.In addition, the re-sponse to stress, sperm fertility, muscle development and apoptosis seemed to be also impaired in infected animals.These results sug-gested that B.suis by.2 may use strategies similar to other smooth brucellae to facilitate intraeellular multiplication and the developmentof chronic infections.To our knowledge, this is the first report of the analysis of gene expression profile in hosts infected with B.suis by.2, which is important to understand the molecular mechanisms at the host-pathogen interface in the main reservoir species with possible implications in the zoonotic cycle of the pathogen. 相似文献

Background
We describe the diversity of two kinds of mycobacteria isolates, environmental mycobacteria and Mycobacterium bovis collected from wild boar, fallow deer, red deer and cattle in Do?ana National Park (DNP, Spain), analyzing their association with temporal, spatial and environmental factors. 相似文献9.

In the last decade, several reports have focused on the identification and characterization of proteins present in urine. In an effort to build a list of proteins of interest as biomarkers, we reviewed the largest urine proteomes and built two updated lists of proteins of interest (available as supplementary tables). The first table includes a consensus list of 443 proteins found in urine by independent laboratories and reported on the top three largest urine proteomes currently published. This consensus list of proteins could serve as biomarkers to diagnose, monitor and manage a number of diseases. Here, we focus on a reduced list of 35 proteins with potential interest as cancer biomarkers in urine following two criteria: first, proteins previously detected in urine using bottom-up proteomic experiments, and second, those suggested as cancer protein biomarkers in human plasma. In an effort to standardize the information presented and its use in future studies, here we include the updated International Protein Index (v. 3.80) and primary Swiss-Prot accession numbers, official gene symbols and recommended full names. The main variables that influence urine proteomic experiments are also discussed. 相似文献

Antigen recognition by T cells is a key event in the adaptive immune response. T cells scan the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) or target cells for specific peptides bound to MHC molecules. In the physiological setting, a typical APC presents tens of thousands of diverse endogenous self-derived peptides complexed to MHC (pMHC complexes). When 'foreign' peptides are presented, they constitute a small fraction of the total surface peptide repertoire. As T cells seem to be capable of discerning minute amounts of 'foreign' peptides among a complex background of self-peptides, endogenous peptides are generally assumed to play no role in recognition. However, recent results suggest that these background peptides may alter the sensitivity of T cells to foreign peptides. Current experimental limitations preclude analysis of peptide mixtures approaching physiological complexity, making it difficult to further address the role of complex background peptides. In this paper, we present a computational model to test how complex, varied peptide populations on an APC could potentially modulate a T cell's ability to detect the presence of small numbers of agonist peptides among a diverse population. We use the model to investigate the notion that under physiological conditions, T cell recognition of foreign peptides is context dependent, that is, T cells process signals gathered from all pMHC interactions, not just from a few agonist peptides while ignoring all others. 相似文献
