Santos2018 - Pneumococcal infection in alveoli

ABSTRACT: Multiscale mathematical model of pneumococcal alveolar infection. This model analyses the role of cellular and molecular interactions during the first 10 h after alveolar invasion of Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. By “multi-level” we mean that we simulated the interplay between different temporal and spatial scales in a single computational model. In this instance, we included the intracellular scale of processes driving lung epithelial cell activation together with the scale of cell-to-cell interactions between bacteria and alveolar macrophages at the alveolar tissue. The model combines agent-based modelling and ODE modelling strategies. The original article of the article can be found in https://doi.org/10.3389/fcimb.2018.00159.

Bacterial Adherence and Dwelling Probability: Two Drivers of Early Alveolar Infection by <i>Streptococcus pneumoniae</i> Identified in Multi-Level Mathematical Modeling.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology 20180515

Pneumococcal infection is the most frequent cause of pneumonia, and one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide. The population groups at high risk of death from bacterial pneumonia are infants, elderly and immunosuppressed people. These groups are more vulnerable because they have immature or impaired immune systems, the efficacy of their response to vaccines is lower, and antibiotic treatment often does not take place until the inflammatory response triggered is already overwhelming. The immu ...[more]

Identification of Proteins in Streptococcus pneumoniae extracellular vesicles (pEVs)

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have recently garnered attention for their participation in host-microbe interactions in Streptococcus pneumoniae infections. However, the effect of pEVs on the disruption of alveolar epithelial barrier remain poorly understood. Our studies focus on EVs produced by Streptococcus pneumoniae (pEVs), and reveal that pEVs are internalized by alveolar epithelial cells. In vitro, pEVs induce autophagy activation in a dosage-dependent manner and decrease the alveolar epithelial barrier’s trans-epithelium electrical resistance (TEER). In addition, pEV-containing bacterial peotein serine/threonine-protein kinase StkP may act as an activator for Streptococcus pneumoniae-induced autophagy activation. When administered systemically in mice, Streptococcus pneumoniae wild type strain induced acute lung injury, the deletion of stkP deletion strain attenuated this injury. Taken together, pEVs cargos emerge as critical contributors to tissue damage in mammalian hosts.

CD11b restricts alveolar macrophage activation during pneumococcal pneumonia and prevents excessive lung inflammation

Project description:Bacterial lung infections are associated with strong infiltration of CD11b+ myeloid cells, which limit life-threatening disease, but also severely damage lung tissue. In a murine lung infection model with Streptococcus pneumoniae, we found intrinsic upregulation of CD11b on resident alveolar macrophages. Such CD11b expression was associated with transcriptomic and proteomic adaptations by alveolar macrophages, leading to the identification of specific molecules and pathways that depended on CD11b. In the absence of CD11b, the antimicrobial defense of alveolar macrophages was strongly reduced, and the production of neutrophil-recruiting chemokines was more pronounced. Moreover, CD11b expression limited the infection and prevented excessive alveolar damage. In conclusion, our study provides detailed molecular insights into the alveolar macrophage-specific immune response to Streptococcus pneumoniae lung infection and reveals profound CD11b-dependent alterations that are critical for effective antimicrobial immunity, neutrophil recruitment, and prevention of alveolar damage.

Expression data from uninfected and pneumococcus-infected wt and PGLYPR4-KO primary alveolar macrophages

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most frequent cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Endogenous antimicrobial proteins such as PGLYRP4 might participate to the course of the disease. PGLYRP4 is expressed in different cell types but is downregulated in alveolar epithelial after stimulation with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Interestingly, mice lacking PGLYRP4 displayed an enhanced bacterial clearance in the lungs and less mice develop a bacteremia. We investigated the gene expression in alveolar macrphages and found most top 50 up- and down-regulated genes to be not annotated. Genes which could be annotated seem unlikely to play a major role in the phenotype of PGLYRP4-KO mice. We implemented microarray analysis of infected primary alveolar macrophage cells to identify possible regulated genes by PGLYPR4-deficency, which contribute to the seen phenotype.

Time-resolved dual RNA-seq reveals extensive rewiring of lung epithelial and pneumococcal transcriptomes during early infection

Project description:BACKGROUND: Streptococcus pneumoniae, the pneumococcus, is the main etiological agent of pneumonia. Pneumococcal infection is initiated by bacterial adherence to lung epithelial cells. The exact transcriptional changes occurring in both host and microbe during infection are unknown. Here, we developed a time-resolved infection model of human lung alveolar epithelial cells by S. pneumoniae and assess the resulting transcriptome changes in both organisms simultaneously by using dual RNA-seq. RESULTS: Functional analysis of the time-resolved dual RNA-seq data identifies several features of pneumococcal infection. For instance, we show that the glutathione-dependent reactive oxygen detoxification pathway in epithelial cells is activated by reactive oxygen species produced by S. pneumoniae. Addition of the antioxidant resveratrol during infection abates this response. At the same time, pneumococci activate the competence regulon during co-incubation with lung epithelial cells. By comparing transcriptional changes between wild-type encapsulated and mutant unencapsulated pneumococci, we demonstrate that adherent pneumococci, but not free-floating bacteria, repress innate immune responses in epithelial cells including expression of the chemokine IL-8 and the production of antimicrobial peptides. We also show that pneumococci activate several sugar transporters in response to adherence to epithelial cells and demonstrate that this activation depends on host-derived mucins. CONCLUSIONS: We provide a dual-transcriptomics overview of early pneumococcal infection in a time-resolved manner, providing new insights into host-microbe interactions. To allow easy access to the data by the community, a web-based platform was developed ( http://dualrnaseq.molgenrug.nl ). Further database exploration may expand our understanding of epithelial-pneumococcal interaction, leading to novel antimicrobial strategies.

Methionine starvation caused reprogrammed metabolism in Streptococcus pneumoniae

Project description:In our study, deletion of methionine synthesis gene metE (SPD_0510) impaired the growth of Streptococcus pneumoniae strain D39 significantly when bacteria were cultured in chemically defined medium with a low concentration of methionine. Bacteria undergo methionine starvation in this condition. We aimed to know how S. pneumoniae responses to methionine starvation, particularly at the transcriptional level. RNA-seq results show that 804 genes (41.2 % of whole genome) were differentially expressed under methionine starvation. Among them, 258 genes (32.1 %) are related to cell metabolism, with 75 genes involved in sugar and carbon metabolism, 88 genes for synthesis of metabolic products and 95 genes for uptake of amino acids and sugars. Combined with other experiments data, this showed the reprogrammed metabolism in S. pneumoniae under methionine starvation.

Expression data from uninfected and pneumococcus-infected wt and PGLYPR4-KO primary alveolar epithelial cells

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most frequent cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Endogenous antimicrobial proteins such as PGLYRP4 might participate to the course of the disease. PGLYRP4 is expressed in different cell types but is downregulated in alveolar epithelial after stimulation with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Interestingly, mice lacking PGLYRP4 displayed an enhanced bacterial clearance in the lungs and less mice develop a bacteremia. This may depend on a higher proinflammatory cytokine response in PGLYRP4KO compared to wt cells, which contribute to the recruitment of more immune cells to the side of infection and an enhanced bacterial clearance by additionally stronger activation of the phagocytes. We implemented microarray analysis of infected primary epithelial cells to identify possible regulated genes by PGLYPR4-deficency, which contribute to the seen phenotype.
