Tumour samples provide many obstacles to carrying out robust and reliable microbial surveys, primarily the anticipated low biomass of these samples, which leaves them vulnerable to environmental contamination. While the debate over the presence or absence of bacterial communities in these tumours continues, it impedes any research into how such bacteria might be utilised in medicine. Larger sample numbers are required, from diverse tumour tissues within the human body, and these must be analysed in a reproducible and accurate manner to allow for the drawing of definitive conclusions in this debate. To accommodate this requirement, the primary methodological aspects of this thesis were: i) The assembly and validation of a contamination control pipeline using recent advances is bioinformatic contamination control detection. ii) The development and validation of a bacterial DNA extraction protocol for formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples, with accompanying FFPE biological standards for use as controls. A key aim of this thesis was to increase the accuracy and reproducibility of research into clinical tissue biopsies by eliminating the role of contamination, and to expand the applicability of FFPE tissues which represent an invaluable resource of samples for analysis. In this thesis, ecological surveys of a variety of related environments were conducted with the common goal of characterising a detectable bacterial community and identify potential bacterial biomarkers unique to these host environments. Regardless of whether or not a consistently present and detectable tumour microbiome exists, tumours possess several phenotypes making them hospitable environments for bacteria to colonise. Where the unique physiology of tumours is seen as an obstacle for traditional cancer treatments, they represent an opportunity for bacterial-mediated solutions. Therefore, findings from sequencing-based research of host environments have potential to be translated into the use of administered bacteria as delivery vehicles to locally produce biomolecules. 4 There are two considerations in this context, requiring two very different applications of bioinformatics. i) The first is to identify which bacteria colonize the desired niche in body; this can be a ‘foreign’ body such as a tumour (Chapter 3 and 4), or parasite (Chapter 5), or a distal niche such as the gut. ii) The second, often under-considered parameter, relates to what these bacteria produce. Synthetic biology presents enormous scope for sophisticated medical therapy mediated by novel synthetic proteins. However, the task of getting a bacterial cell to successfully express and secrete a stable protein that it does not produce naturally is far from trivial, and is becoming a key aspect of the synthetic biology field. To facilitate this synthetic protein aspect, a novel strategy for the performance prediction of designed protein constructs was developed. This tool was able to predict the overall performance of a protein construct in vitro using only in silico derived data. Thesis aim: This thesis aimed to develop novel strategies for the analysis of bacterial communities within tumours by i) increasing the sample sizes available to future projects by enabling the use of FFPE samples and ii) improving the accuracy of analysis by designing bioinformatics analysis pipelines appropriate for these samples. This enabled further research concerned with finding differentially present taxa between the tumour and surrounding environment, which have the potential for use as therapeutic vectors. As the key aim is to establish the presence of potential bacterial therapeutic vectors rather than to establish the role these bacteria play in tumorigenesis, this approach is easily translatable to other foreign bodies, and could therefore be validated in a parasitic nematode model. 5 GLOSSARY: 16S ribosomal RNA gene: Transcribed form of the small subunit gene located in the 30S subunit of a prokaryotic ribosome.

  • Abstract Daughtry, Katheryne Virginia
    ABSTRACT DAUGHTRY, KATHERYNE VIRGINIA. Phenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Lactobacillus buchneri Strains Isolated from Spoiled Fermented Cucumber. (Under the direction of Dr. Rodolphe Barrangou and Dr. Suzanne D. Johanningsmeier). Lactobacillus buchneri is a facultative anaerobe and member of the lactic acid bacteria. L. buchneri has been isolated from various environments, but most commonly from decomposing plant material, such as silage and spoiled food products, including wine, beer, Swiss cheese, mayonnaise, and fermented cucumber. Recently, the metabolic pathway for the conversion of lactic acid to acetic acid and 1,2-propanediol was annotated in this species. Although this metabolic pathway is not common in most lactic acid bacteria, L. buchneri degrades lactate under various conditions. Lactic acid utilization in fermented cucumbers leads to a rise in pH, ultimately spoiling the product. In previous studies, strains of L. buchneri isolated from fermented cucumber spoiled displayed variation in colony morphologies. It was predicted the isolates were phenotypically and genotypically diverse, and that the abilities to degrade lactic acid may be strain specific. To examine this hypothesis, thirty-five L. buchneri cultures isolated from spoiled fermented cucumber and the type strain isolated from tomato pulp were characterized and unique strains were subjected to whole genome sequencing. Each isolate was genotypically and phenotypically characterized using 16S rDNA sequencing, DiversiLab® rep-PCR, colony morphology on MRS agar, carbohydrate profiling, growth rates in MRS media, and the ability to degrade lactic acid in a modified MRS medium. Great diversity in colony morphology revealed variations of color (ranging from opaque yellow to white), texture (brittle, viscous, or powdery), shape (umbonate, flat, circular, or irregular) and size (1 mm- 11mm).

Quiles Received: 7 January 2016 ; Accepted: 6 February 2016 ; Published: 17 February 2016 Abstract: This review paper summarizes the antibacterial effects of phytochemicals of various medicinal plants against pathogenic and cariogenic streptococcal species. The information suggests that these phytochemicals have potential as alternatives to the classical antibiotics currently used for the treatment of streptococcal infections. The phytochemicals demonstrate direct bactericidal or bacteriostatic effects, such as: (i) prevention of bacterial adherence to mucosal surfaces of the pharynx, skin, and teeth surface; (ii) inhibition of glycolytic enzymes and pH drop; (iii) reduction of biofilm and plaque formation; and (iv) cell surface hydrophobicity. Collectively, findings from numerous studies suggest that phytochemicals could be used as drugs for elimination of infections with minimal side effects. Keywords: streptococci; biofilm; adherence; phytochemical; quorum sensing; S. mutans; S. pyogenes; S. agalactiae; S. pneumoniae 1. Introduction The aim of this review is to summarize the current knowledge of the antimicrobial activity of naturally occurring molecules isolated from plants against Streptococcus species, focusing on their mechanisms of action. This review will highlight the phytochemicals that could be used as alternatives or enhancements to current antibiotic treatments for Streptococcus species.
