Dual organism transcriptomics of airway epithelial cells interacting with conidia of Aspergillus fumigatus.

Oosthuizen JL, Gomez P, Ruan J, Hackett TL, Moore MM, Knight DA, Tebbutt SJ.Author information UBC James Hogg Research Centre, Institute for HEART+LUNG Health, Providence Health Care, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.AbstractBACKGROUND: Given the complex nature of the responses that can occur in host-pathogen interactions, dual transcriptomics offers a powerful method of elucidating these interactions during infection. The gene expression patterns of Aspergillus fumigatus conidia or host cells have been reported in a number of previous studies, but each focused on only one of the interacting organisms. In the present study, we profiled simultaneously the transcriptional response of both A. fumigatus and human airway epithelial cells (AECs).

The role of antennae in removing entomopathogenic fungi from cuticle of the termite, Coptotermes formosanus.

Yanagawa A, Yokohari F, Shimizu S.Author information Institute of Biological Control, Graduate School of Bioenvironmental Science, Kyushu University, Fukuoka 812-8581, Japan. a-yana@grt.kyushu-u.ac.jpAbstractOur previous research has shown that the termite, Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae), protects itself from entomopathogenic fungi by mutual grooming behavior. The termite removes and discards foreign organisms, such as fungal conidia, from the body surface of its nestmates by mutual grooming behavior. The role of the antennae in detecting the condia was examind here. Three entomopathogenic fungi were used, Beauveria brongniartii 782 (Saccardo) (Hypocreales), Paecilomyces fumosoroseus K3 (Wize) (Hyphomycetes), and Metarhizium anisopliae 455 Sorokin (Hyphomycetes). Termites with antennae removed conidia more efficiently than termites without antennae. There were differences between termites with and without antennae in selection of sites to be groomed on nestmates, in the length of grooming and in occurrence of grooming. Electroantennogram (EAG) responses were recorded from termite antennae and the waveforms were rather specific to the kinds of fungi used as odor sources. Termites were able to distinguish between the tested fungi in feeding tests. These results show that the antennae play important roles in the mutual grooming behavior of the termite.
