Abstract
-
In vitro fecal fermentation is an assay that uses fecal microbes
to ferment foods, the results of which can be used to
evaluate the potential of prebiotic candidates. To date, there
have been various protocols used for in vitro fecal fermentation-
based assessments of food substances. In this study,
we investigated how personal gut microbiota differences and
external factors affect the results of in vitro fecal fermentation
assays. We used Cheonggukjang (CGJ), a Korean traditional
fermented soybean soup that is acknowledged as
healthy functional diet. CGJ was digested in vitro using acids
and enzymes, and then fermented with human feces anaerobically.
After fecal fermentation, the microbiota was analyzed
using MiSeq, and the amount of short chain fatty acids
(SCFAs) were measured using GC-MS. Our results suggest
that CGJ was effectively metabolized by fecal bacteria to produce
SCFAs, and this process resulted in an increase in the
abundance of Coprococcus, Ruminococcus, and Bifidobacterium
and a reduction in the growth of Sutterella, an opportunistic
pathogen. The metabolic activities predicted from the
microbiota shifts indicated enhanced metabolism linked to
methionine biosynthesis and depleted chondroitin sulfate
degradation. Moreover, the amount of SCFAs and microbiota
shifts varied depending on personal microbiota differences.
Our findings also suggest that in vitro fecal fermentation of
CGJ for longer durations may partially affect certain fecal
microbes. Overall, the study discusses the usability of in vitro
gastrointestinal digestion and fecal fermentation (GIDFF)
to imitate the effects of diet-induced microbiome modulation
and its impact on the host.

Abstract
-
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a Gram-positive pathogen with
high morbidity and mortality globally but some of its pathogenesis
remains unknown. Previous research has provided
evidence that aminopeptidase N (PepN) is most likely a virulence
factor of S. pneumoniae. However, its role in S. pneumoniae
virulence and its interaction with the host remains
to be confirmed. We generated a pepN gene deficient mutant
strain and found that its virulence for mice was significantly
attenuated as were in vitro adhesion and invasion of host
cells. The PepN protein could induce a strong innate immune
response in vivo and in vitro and induced secretion of IL-6
and TNF-α by primary peritoneal macrophages via the rapid
phosphorylation of MAPK and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways
and this was confirmed using specific pathway inhibitors.
In conclusion, PepN is a novel virulence factor that is
essential for the virulence of S. pneumoniae and induces host
innate immunity via MAPK and PI3K/AKT signaling.

Abstract
-
The DNA damage checkpoint signaling pathway is a highly
conserved surveillance mechanism that ensures genome integrity
by sequential activation of protein kinase cascades.
In mammals, the main pathway is orchestrated by two central
sensor kinases, ATM and ATR, that are activated in response
to DNA damage and DNA replication stress. Patients
lacking functional ATM or ATR suffer from ataxia-telangiectasia
(A-T) or Seckel syndrome, respectively, with pleiotropic
degenerative phenotypes. In addition to DNA strand
breaks, ATM and ATR also respond to oxidative DNA damage
and reactive oxygen species (ROS), suggesting an unconventional
function as regulators of intracellular redox status.
Here, we summarize the multiple roles of ATM and ATR, and
of their orthologs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Tel1 and Mec1,
in DNA damage checkpoint signaling and the oxidative stress
response, and discuss emerging ideas regarding the possible
mechanisms underlying the elaborate crosstalk between those
pathways. This review may provide new insights into the integrated
cellular strategies responsible for maintaining genome
stability in eukaryotes with a focus on the yeast model
organism.

Abstract
-
Synthetic lethality is an extreme form of negative genetic
epistasis that arises when a combination of functional deficiency
in two or more genes results in cell death, whereas none
of the single genetic perturbations are lethal by themselves.
This unconventional genetic interaction is a modification
of the concept of essentiality that can be exploited for the
purpose of targeted cancer therapy. The yeast Saccharomyces
cerevisiae has been pivotally used for early large-scale synthetic
lethal screens due to its experimental advantages, but
recent advances in gene silencing technology have now made
direct high-throughput analysis possible in higher organisms.
Identification of tumor-specific alterations and characterization
of the mechanistic principles underlying synthetic lethal
interaction are the key to applying synthetic lethality to clinical
cancer treatment by enabling genome-driven oncological
research. Here, we provide emerging ideas on the synthetic
lethal interactions in budding yeast, particularly between cellular
processes responsible for oxidative stress response and
DNA damage repair, and discuss how they can be appropriately
utilized for context-dependent cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
-
Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a natural polymer of the
short chain fatty acid β-hydroxybutyrate, which acts as a
microbial control agent. The mammalian target of the rapamycin
(mTOR) signaling pathway plays a crucial role in intestine
inflammation and epithelial morphogenesis. In this
study, we examined the composition of intestine microbiota,
and mTOR signaling-related gene expression in Pacific white
shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei fed diets containing different
levels of PHB: 0% (Control), 1% (PHB1), 3% (PHB3), and 5%
(PHB5) (w/w) for 35 days. High-throughput sequencing analysis
revealed that dietary PHB altered the composition and
diversity of intestine microbiota, and that the microbiota diversity
decreased with the increasing doses of PHB. Specifically,
dietary PHB increased the relative abundance of Proteobacteria
and Tenericutes in the PHB1 and PHB5 groups,
respectively, and increased that of Gammaproteobacteria in
the three PHB groups. Alternatively, PHB decreased Alphaproteobacteria
in the PHB3 and PHB5 groups. At the genus
level, dietary PHB increased the abundance of beneficial bacteria,
such as Bacillus, Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Clostridium,
and Bdellovibrio. The relative mRNA expression levels of the
mTOR signaling-related genes TOR, 4E-BP, eIF4E1α, and
eIF4E2 all increased in the three PHB treatment groups. These
results
revealed that dietary PHB supplementation had a
beneficial effect on intestine health of L. vannamei by modulating
the composition of intestine microbiota and activating
mTOR signaling.

Abstract
-
Malaria has been present since ancient time and remains a major global health problem in developing countries. Plas-modium falciparum belongs to the phylum Apicomplexan, largely contain disease-causing parasites and characterized by the presence of apicoplast. It is a very essential organelle of P. falciparum responsible for the synthesis of key mole-cules required for the growth of the parasite. Indispensable nature of apicoplast makes it a potential drug target. Calcium signaling is important in the establishment of malaria para-site inside the host. It has been involved in invasion and egress of merozoites during the asexual life cycle of the parasite. Calcium signaling also regulates apicoplast metabolism. There-fore, in this review, we will focus on the role of apicoplast in malaria biology and its metabolic regulation through Ca++ signaling.

Abstract
-
RIG-I is a cytosolic receptor recognizing virus-specific RNA
structures and initiates an antiviral signaling that induces the
production of interferons and proinflammatory cytokines.
Because inappropriate RIG-I signaling affects either viral
clearance or immune toxicity, multiple regulations of RIG-I
have been investigated since its discovery as the viral RNA
detector. In this review, we describe the recent progress in
research on the regulation of RIG-I activity or abundance.
Specifically, we focus on the mechanism that modulates RIGI-
dependent antiviral response through post-translational
modifications of or protein-protein interactions with RIG-I.

Abstract
-
The filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus is the most prevalent
airborne fungal pathogen causing severe and usually
fatal invasive aspergillosis in immunocompromised patients.
This fungus produces a large number of small hydrophobic
asexual spores called conidia as the primary means of reproduction,
cell survival, propagation, and infectivity. The initiation,
progression, and completion of asexual development
(conidiation) is controlled by various regulators that govern
expression of thousands of genes associated with formation
of the asexual developmental structure conidiophore, and
biogenesis of conidia. In this review, we summarize key regulators
that directly or indirectly govern conidiation in this
important pathogenic fungus. Better understanding these
developmental regulators may provide insights into the improvement
in controlling both beneficial and detrimental
aspects of various Aspergillus species.

Abstract
-
A number of pathogenic species of basidiomycete fungi are
either life-threatening pathogens of humans or major economic
pests for crop production. Sensing the host is a key
aspect of pathogen proliferation during disease, and signal
transduction pathways are critically important for detecting
environmental conditions and facilitating adaptation. This
review focuses on the contributions of the cAMP/protein
kinase A (PKA) signaling pathway in Cryptococcus neoformans,
a species that causes meningitis in humans, and Ustilago
maydis, a model phytopathogen that causes a smut disease on
maize. Environmental sensing by the cAMP/PKA pathway
regulates the production of key virulence traits in C. neoformans
including the polysaccharide capsule and melanin.
For U. maydis, the pathway controls the dimorphic transition
from budding growth to the filamentous cell type required
for proliferation in plant tissue. We discuss recent advances
in identifying new components of the cAMP/PKA pathway
in these pathogens and highlight an emerging theme that
pathway signaling influences iron acquisition.

Abstract
-
Indole is an organic compound that is widespread in microbial
communities inhabiting diverse habitats, like the soil
environment and human intestines. Measurement of indole
production is a traditional method for the identification of
microbial species. Escherichia coli can produce millimolar
concentrations of indole in the stationary growth phase under
nutrient-rich conditions. Indole has received considerable
attention because of its remarkable effects on various
biological functions of the microbial communities, for example,
biofilm formation, motility, virulence, plasmid stability,
and antibiotic resistance. Indole may function as an
intercellular signaling molecule, like a quorum-sensing signal.
Nevertheless, a receptor system for indole and the function
of this compound in coordinated behavior of a microbial population
(which are requirements for a true signaling molecule)
have not yet been confirmed. Recent findings suggest
that a long-known quorum-sensing regulator, E. coli’s SdiA,
cannot recognize indole and that this compound may simply
cause membrane disruption and energy reduction, which
can lead to various changes in bacterial physiology including
unstable folding of a quorum-sensing regulator. Indole
appears to be responsible for acquisition of antibiotic resistance
via the formation of persister cells and activation of an
exporter. This review highlights and summarizes the current
knowledge about indole as a multitrophic molecule among
bacteria, together with recently identified new avenues of
research.

Abstract
-
Phospholipase C1 (PLC1), secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2)
and Ca2+/H+ exchanger proteins regulate calcium signaling
and homeostasis in eukaryotes. In this study, we investigate
functions for phospholipase C1 (plc-1), sPLA2 (splA2) and a
Ca2+/H+ exchanger (cpe-1) in the filamentous fungus Neurospora
crassa. The Δplc-1, ΔsplA2, and Δcpe-1 mutants exhibited
a growth defect on medium supplemented with the
divalent ionophore A23187, suggesting that these genes might
play a role in regulation of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration
([Ca2+]c) in N. crassa. The strains lacking plc-1, splA2, and
cpe-1 possessed higher carotenoid content than wild type at
8°C, 22°C, and 30°C, and showed increased ultraviolet (UV)-
survival under conditions that induced carotenoid accumulation.
Moreover, Δplc-1, ΔsplA2, and Δcpe-1 mutants showed
reduced survival rate under hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative
stress and induced thermotolerance after exposure
to heat shock temperatures. Thus, this study revealed multiple
cellular roles for plc-1, splA2, and cpe-1 genes in regulation
of [Ca2+]c, carotenoid accumulation, survival under
stress conditions, and acquisition of thermotolerance induced
by heat shock.

Abstract
-
Shiga toxins are a family of genetically and structurally related
toxins that are the primary virulence factors produced
by the bacterial pathogens Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1
and certain Escherichia coli strains. The toxins are multifunctional
proteins inducing protein biosynthesis inhibition,
ribotoxic and ER stress responses, apoptosis, autophagy, and
inflammatory cytokine and chemokine production. The regulated
induction of inflammatory responses is key to minimizing
damage upon injury or pathogen-mediated infections,
requiring the concerted activation of multiple signaling pathways
to control cytokine/chemokine expression. Activation
of host cell signaling cascades is essential for Shiga toxinmediated
proinflammatory responses and the contribution
of the toxins to virulence. Many studies have been reported
defining the inflammatory response to Shiga toxins in vivo
and in vitro, including production and secretion of tumor
necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), macrophage
inflammatory protein-1α/β (MIP-1α/β), macrophage
chemoattractant monocyte chemoattractant protein
1 (MCP-1), interleukin 8 (IL-8), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and
Groβ. These cytokines and chemokines may contribute to
damage in the colon and development of life threatening
conditions such as acute renal failure (hemolytic uremic
syndrome) and neurological abnormalities. In this review,
we summarize recent findings in Shiga toxin-mediated inflammatory
responses by different types of cells in vitro and
in animal models. Signaling pathways involved in the inflammatory
responses are briefly reviewed.

Abstract
-
REOviruses (Respiratory Enteric Orphan viruses) are ubiquitous, non-enveloped viruses containing 10 segments of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) as their genome. They are common isolates of the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract of humans but are not associated with severe disease and are therefore considered relatively benign. An intriguing characteristic of reovirus is its innate oncolytic potential, which is linked to the transformed state of the cell. When immortalized cells are transfected in vitro with activated oncogenes such as Ras, Sos, v-erbB, or c-myc, they became susceptible to reovirus infection and subsequent cellular lysis, indicating that oncogene signaling pathways are exploited by reovirus. This observation has led to the use of the virus in clinical trials as an anti-cancer agent against oncogenic tumors. In addition to the exploitation of oncogene signaling, reovirus may further utilize host immune responses to enhance its antitumor activity in vivo due to its innate interferon induction ability. Reovirus is, however, not entirely benign to immunocompromised animal models. Reovirus causes so-called “black feet syndrome” in immunodeficient mice and can also harm neonatal animals. Because cancer patients often undergo immunosuppression due to heavy chemo/radiation-treatments or advanced tumor progression, this pathogenic response may be a hurdle in virus-based anticancer therapies. However, a genetically attenuated reovirus variant derived from persistent reovirus infection of cells in vitro is able to exert potent anti-tumor activity with significantly reduced viral pathogenesis in immunocompromised animals. Importantly, in this instance the attenuated reovirus maintains its oncolytic potential while significantly reducing viral pathogenesis in vivo.
