Full textLa biología sintética es un campo recientemente desarrollado con el objectivo de implementar nuevas funciones en sistemas biológicos. De forma global, la biología sintética incluye el desarrollo de herramientas para facilitar la ingeniería de sistemas biológicos. En diversas publicaciones, investigadores en el campo de la biología sintética han implementado dispositivos que funcionan de forma similar a circuitos electrónicos y han demonstrado el potencial del campo para la producción de biocarburantes, farmaceuticos y biosensores. Para la presente tesis he creado una colección de plasmidos estandarizados (Biobricks) que pueden ser de interés para biólogos fuera del campo da la biología sintética. Además, utilizando estos Biobricks, he creado un sensor de la actividad de las proteínas reguladas por el hierro. Para demonstrar su aplicación, he utilizado el sensor para estudiar un nuevo sistema de co-cultura de dos tipos celulares (BNL CL.2 y RAW 264.7), substituto para la comunicación entre hepatocitos y macrófagos

Full textMalaria is one of the most predominant infectious diseases worldwide, accounting for more than 1 million deaths annually. The intracellular parasite Plasmodium is the causative agent of malaria which undergoes a complicated life cycle. Infection is initiated by inoculation of sporozoites through mosquito bite, which journey to the liver where they must migrate and invade hepatocytes in order to replicate and mature. Immunity to malaria is complex and is essentially both species and stage specific, thus a wide variety of distinct immune mechanisms are provoked by the parasite in the host. The generation and maintenance of protective immune responses requires repeated infections over the lifetime of an individual and even though only partial immunity is achieved against the disease. Despite the significant advances in understanding mechanisms of protection and identifying new targets for vaccine design, an effective protection against malaria is still not available. However, immunization with irradiated Plasmodium sporozoites induces antigen-specific CD8+ T cells immune response that confers complete protection against malaria. The initiation of this response is mediated by dendritic cells, but the source of parasite antigens intervening in this response remains unknown. Irradiated sporozoites are capable of infecting hepatocytes but do not progress into blood stages forms. Both this incomplete liver development and the hepatic stage itself are indispensable steps for the outcome of a successful malaria protection. Although some protective mechanisms conferred by irradiated sporozoites have been identified, a thorough characterization is still needed. The liver plays a key role in the life cycle of the malaria parasite and therefore insights into Plasmodium-hepatocyte interactions will have a promising effect in improving the process of triggering an immune response against the disease. Using a rodent malaria model, we show that hepatocytes infected with irradiated Plasmodium sporozoites undergo apoptosis shortly after infection. In addition, after infection dendritic cells are recruited to the liver where they phagocytose apoptotic bodies derived from infected hepatocytes. Given that dendritic cells are capable of cross-presenting exogenous antigens and elicit the priming and activation of T cells, our results suggest that the apoptotic Plasmodium infected hepatocytes provide a source of parasite antigens for the initiation of the protective immune response against the disease. Cell death plays a central role in the course of an infection helping establish an immune response against a pathogen. Furthermore, some parasites have the capacity to modulate this response by apoptosis induction or inhibition of the infected host cell, in order to survive and develop within the host.Previously it was shown that wounding of hepatocytes by sporozoite migration induces the secretion of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) by traversed cells, which renders neighbor epatocytes susceptible to infection. The signaling initiated by HGF through its receptor MET has multifunctional effects on various cell types. Survival signals and protection of host cells is one of these features of HGF/MET signaling. The role of this protection on Plasmodium infected hepatocytes was also a subject of study in this thesis. Therefore, we hypothesize that HGF/MET would induce in infected host cells protection from apoptosis, which in turn would lead to an increased infection. Our data confirms that HGF/MET signaling protects infected cells from apoptosis, since an increase in apoptosis of infected cells was observed when the signaling pathway was inhibited. Given that HGF inhibits cell death primarily through the PI3-kinase/Akt signal transduction pathway, we tested if the infection susceptibility increase was impaired by inhibition of this pathway. In fact, inhibition of PI3-kinase completely abrogates the HGF effect on malaria infection. Taken together, these results implicate that the permissive effect of HGF for susceptibility to malaria infection is, at least in part, mediated by its anti-apoptotic signal. To our knowledge, these results demonstrate for the first time that active host’s cell apoptosis inhibition during infection by Plasmodium is required for a successful infection. Finally, an attempt at identifying a Plasmodium candidate gene responsible for the apoptosis inhibition of the host cell was carried out. Preliminary results evidence a promising role for Plasmodium heat shock protein 70 which broad function should be studied in the future. In summary, data presented in this thesis contributes to a wider understanding of the events that occur in the liver during a malaria infection and expand our knowledge within the interactions established between the malaria parasite and its host.

Full textIn this study, we compared three different biochemical methodologies of membrane rafts preparation from purified rat liver PM. Only detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs) fulfill the requirements of membrane rafts. We subsequently found using the low dose of EGF (1 ug/100 g BW); the content of EGFR in PM-DRMs did not changed significantly following EGF administration. When a higher dose of EGF (5 ug/100 g BW) is administrated we observed a rapid and almost complete disappearance of EGFR (around 80%) from both PM and DRMs fractions. Interestingly, following the administration of a low or high dose of EGF, the pool of EGFR in the PM-DRMs fraction becomes highly Tyr-phosphorylated. In accordance with the higher level of EGFR Tyr-Phosphorylation, EGF induced an augmented recruitment of Grb2 and Shc proteins to PM-DRMs compared with whole PM.
Furthermore neither high nor low dose of EGF affects the caveolin content in DRMs and PM. These observations suggest that EGFR located in DRM are competent for signaling and non-caveolae PM rafts are involved in the compartmentalization and presumably internalization of the EGFR.
