Iyer-Pascuzzi Department of Botany and Plant Pathology Roots are key not only to plant water and nutrient uptake, but also for plant defense against soilborne pathogens. Nearly 90% of the major plant diseases affecting crops in the United States are caused by soilborne pathogens. A subset of these are root vascular wilts. Soilborne bacteria and fungi that cause vascular wilt diseases first infect plant roots by colonizing water-conducting root tissue known as xylem, which prevents water movement to the shoot, resulting in plant death. The best means of disease control is through resistant varieties, but the mechanisms underlying resistance are not clear. In the Iyer-Pascuzzi laboratory, our goal is to understand the molecular basis of root immunity to pathogenic soil microbes. We focus on the soilborne bacterium R. solanacearum, the causal agent of bacterial wilt and ranked within the top 10 most destructive plant bacterial pathogens. Root-mediated resistance to R. solanacearum is fundamental to whole plant resistance. We have previously shown that bacteria differentially colonize the root systems of susceptible and resistant plants. Xylem colonization by bacteria is critical to disease progress, and in roots of susceptible plants, bacteria are able to enter and colonize the xylem within 24 hours. At this same time point in resistant plants, bacteria are still found at the outer root cell types. We hypothesize that root cell-type and tissue-specific gene expression is required to prevent R. solanacearum from entering the xylem of resistant plants. To test this, we are using Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) to harvest specific cell types and tissues in the resistant and susceptible root, including the root cortex and vasculature, at different time points after inoculation with our pathogen. After harvest, we extract RNA and will use RNA-seq to identify genes that are differentially expressed between mock and inoculated root tissues. Using reverse genetics, we aim to identify tissue-specific genes that contribute to root defense mechanisms. Words from 3D3C: The featured article describes a success story from Dr. Iyer-Pascuzzi’s laboratory of using the LCM system in the 3D3C Facility. LCM is a technique used for isolating cells from a tissue section, cytological preparation or live cell culture via direct visualization of the cells. Unlike other existing methods, e.g. flow cytometry, LCM isolates the cells without disturbing the in situ environment. The technique will also be useful for research in 3D cell cultures that are composed of heterogeneous cell populations. The LCM system in the 3D3C is the latest version of Applied Biosystems® ArcturusXT™ Laser Capture Microdissection System. The system is a unique user-friendly microdissection instrument that combines infrared (IR) laser capture microdissection (LCM) and ultraviolet (UV) laser cutting in one platform. The unique combination of IR laser capture and UV laser cutting permits the collection of selective population, down to a single cell level, of tissues and cells on any slide type and sample preparation, such as thin or thick sections, frozen or formalin-fixed tissues, chromogenic stained or unstained sections, and live cell cultures.

Cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are a subpopulation of cells that reside within the tumor microenvironment. CAFs through their secretory and mechanical activities promote the cancerization process by acting on angiogenesis, inflammation and metastasis. While CAF signaling pathways, e.g. VEGF, have been extensively studied, the role of CAF-generated mechanical forces in vascularization is poorly understood. By coculturing endothelial cells (ECs) with CAFs in 3D fibrin gels with embedded magnetic microbeads coated with thrombin, the studies confirm that mechanically perturbing CAFs affects their effect on vascularization. Mary Kathryn Sewell-Loftin, Samantha Van Hove Bayer, Elizabeth Crist, Taylor Hughes, Sofia M. Joison, Gregory D. Longmore, and Steven C. George. Cancer-associated fibroblasts support vascular growth through mechanical force. Scientific Reports (2017) 7: 12574 3D3C summary of the article: When cocultured with ECs, patient-derived breast CAFs supported the formation of interconnected vascular networks in 3D fibrin gels while normal breast fibroblast (NBFs) did not. However, CAF conditioned medium only moderately rescued blood vessel growth in NBF samples, demonstrating that soluble factors alone are not sufficient to explain the enhanced blood vessel growth in the presence of CAFs. The CAFs produced significantly higher deformations in the gel compared to NBFs, as shown by gel deformation measurements done by tracking the displacement of beads embedded in the gel. Subjecting the gel containing thrombin-coated magnetic beads to a magnetic field moving at 30 or 50 rpm demonstrated an increase in blood vessel growth in samples containing either ECs, NBFs, or CAFs. Increasing rotation speed to 100 rpm, however, showed no further increase in supported vessel growth. Static magnetic stimulation, for which a magnet was placed adjacent to the gel for the duration of the experiment, induced a slight increase in vascular formation. These studies support that mechanical deformations or perturbations of the extracellular matrix regulate the growth of blood vessels as promoted by CAFs in the tumor microenvironment. Comments from 3D3C: The conventional way to generate mechanical stimulus in hydrogels is by changing the concentration of polymers or cross-linkers. The system used by Sewell-Loftin and colleagues provides another method for mechanical stimulation as illustrated here in fibrin gel. One of the advantages of this magnet-based system is the ability to switch on and off the mechanical force if needed without disrupting the hydrogel, enabling the dissection of kinetics for mechanotransductive pathways in cells. Even though the present study is focused primarily on CAFs, the same system can also be used for other cell systems such as endothelial cells and other types of fibroblasts (e.g. normal human lung fibroblasts). The limitation of the present system is that requires using fibrin hydrogel since the interaction between thrombin and fibrin is required. Possibly, in the future, a similar concept can be used with gels made of matrix representing the microenvironment of the cells of interest. ________________________________ 3D in Publications Recent
