Project description:Recognition and response to gram-positive bacteria by macrophages and dendritic cells is mediated in part through TLR2. We found that that Streptococcus pneumoniae cell wall fragments, containing primarily peptidoglycan and teichoic acids, induced prodigious secretion of IL-10 from macrophages and dendritic cells and was dependent on TLR2 and NOD2, a cytoplasmic CARD-NACHT-LRR protein encoded by Card15. IL-10 secretion in response to cell walls was also dependent on RICK/RIP2, a kinase associated with NOD2, and MYD88 but independent of the ERK/p38 pathway. The reduction of IL-10 secretion by cell wall-activated NOD2-deficient myeloid–derived cells translated into downstream effects on IL-10 target gene expression and elevations in subsets of pro-inflammatory cytokine expression normally restrained by autocrine/paracrine effects of IL-10. Since NOD2 is linked to aberrant immune responses in Crohn’s Disease patients bearing mutations in CARD15, the temporal and quantitative effects of the TLR2/NOD/RICK pathway on IL-10 secretion may affect homeostatic control of immune responses to gram-positive bacteria.

Project description:This data series contains spotted oligo microarray data from 10 different experiments using Agilent Rat v2 microarrays. This data is being made public in support of Fillon S et al. Journal of Immunology, (2006). Proinflammatory bacterial components are at least partially responsible for causing the clinical features of sepsis, a syndrome that causes >100,000 deaths each year in the US (1). In the case of Gram positive infection, a key bacterial element recognized by the innate immune system is the cell wall, a complex network of peptidoglycan covalently linked to teichoic acids, proteins and lipoproteins. The current model of innate immune recognition of Gram positive bacteria suggests bacterial cell wall interacts with host recognition proteins, such as toll-like receptors (TLR) and Nod proteins. We describe an additional recognition system mediated by the platelet activating factor receptor (PAFr) and directed to the pathogen associated molecular pattern (PAMP) phosphorylcholine that results in uptake of bacterial components into host cells. Intravascular choline-containing cell walls bound to endothelial cells and caused rapid lethality in wild type, Tlr2-/- and Nod2-/- mice, but not in Pafr-/- mice. Cell wall exited the vasculature into the heart and brain, accumulating within endothelial cells, cardiomyocytes and neurons in a PAFr-dependent way. Physiological consequences of the cell wall/PAFr interaction were cell specific, being noninflammatory in endothelial cells and neurons, but causing rapid loss of cardiomyocyte contractility that contributed to death. Thus, PAFr shepherds phosphorylcholine-containing bacterial components such as cell wall into host cells from where the response ranges from quiescence to severe pathophysiology.

Project description:Microglia are the resident mononuclear phagocytes of the CNS parenchyma and represent an initial line of defense against invading microorganisms. Microglia utilize Toll-like receptors (TLRs) for pathogen recognition and TLR2 specifically senses conserved motifs of gram-positive bacteria including lipoproteins, lipoteichoic acids, and peptidoglycan (PGN) leading to cytokine/chemokine production. Interestingly, primary microglia derived from TLR2 knockout (KO) mice over-expressed numerous IL-12 family members, including IL-12p40, IL-12p70, and IL-27 in response to intact S. aureus, but not the less structurally complex TLR2 ligands Pam3CSK4 or PGN. The ability of intact bacteria to augment IL-12 family member expression was specific for gram-positive organisms, since numerous gram-negative strains were unable to elicit exaggerated responses in TLR2 KO microglia. Inhibition of SYK or IRAK4 signaling did not impact heightened IL-12 family member production in S. aureus-treated TLR2 KO microglia, whereas PI3K, MAPK, and JNK inhibitors were all capable of restoring exaggerated cytokine expression to wild type levels. Additionally, elevated IL-12 production in TLR2 KO microglia was ablated by a TLR9 antagonist, suggesting that TLR9 drives IL-12 family member production following exposure to intact bacteria that remains unchecked in the absence of TLR2 signaling. Collectively, these findings indicate crosstalk between TLR2 and TLR9 pathways to regulate IL-12 family member production by microglia. The summation of TLR signals must be tightly controlled to ensure the timely cessation and/or fine tuning of cytokine signaling to avoid nonspecific bystander damage due to sustained IL-12 release.

TLR2 KO mice were backcrossed with C57BL/6 animals for a minimum of eight generations prior to use in these studies. Age- and sex-matched C57BL/6 mice were used as wild type (WT) controls. Primary mixed glial cultures were prepared from the cerebral corticies of neonatal mice (2-4 days of age) and microglia were harvested using a differential shaking technique with a purity of >98%. A USA300 community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) clinical isolate recovered from a patient with a fatal brain abscess was used to stimulate the microglia isolates. Bacterial strains were heat-inactivated and used to stimulate microglia at 107 colony forming units (cfu)/well for 6 and 12 hours time points. Three replicates of each mouse type (WT, TLR2 KO) at both time points 6 and 12 hours were used for the microarray experiments. Data was only usable for 2 replicates of the KO-12 hr group.

Project description:Microbial molecules have evolved to promote transient and/or permanent associations with mammals. Although numerous examples of secretion systems employed by pathogens have been described, mechanisms by which commensal bacteria export molecules during symbiosis remain unknown. The human gut mutualist Bacteroides fragilis produces a capsular polysaccharide (PSA) that directs host immune development. We reveal herein that outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) deliver PSA to dendritic cells (DCs), promoting regulatory T cells and inducing anti-inflammatory cytokines during protection from intestinal disease. In addition, we found that TLR2 signaling by DCs is required for OMV sensing. Following internalization into DCs and engagement of TLR2, OMVs initiate a gene expression program that results in IL-10 production by DCs. Although it is known that the outcome of PSA sensing by the immune system is Treg induction, nothing is known about the intracellular signaling pathway(s) activated by PSA within DCs. We analyzed the gene expression profile of DCs treated with OMVs to uncover factors that are expressed in a PSA-dependent, TLR2-dependent manner. Our findings demonstrate DC-induced protection from disease via OMV-delivery of a beneficial microbial molecule, uncovering a novel paradigm for inter-kingdom communication between the microbiota and mammals.

Project description:IL-1R associated kinase-4 (IRAK4) is a key enzyme required for activation of the common Toll-like Receptor (TLR) signaling cascade, which results in the transcription of inflammatory and immunity genes. IRAK-4 deficiency has recently been described as a rare form of innate immunodeficiency. Patients present with pyogenic bacterial infections and bacteraemia, particularly with Gram+ Streptococcus pneumoniae, and isolated PBMC from these patients fail to produce inflammatory cytokines in response to TLR agonists. We embarked on this study for several purposes: (1) to identify defective gene response resulting from IRAK4-deficiency that are responsible for the patients' susceptibility to infection by particular bacteria (2) to identify genetic responses that confer relatively normal immunity in these patients despite having a defect in such a critical component of the innate immune system (3) to gain understanding of the transcriptional regulation of inflammatory genes (4) to gain insight into TLR signal transduction pathways, in particular, the role of IRAK4 in the TLR2 and TLR4 pathways initiated by Gram+ and Gram- bacterial components respectively. Transcriptional responses to TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, peptidoglycan or lipopolysaccharide (TLR2/4 agonists) were evaluated at 4 hrs in peripheral blood monocytes (PBM) from the patient bearing the IRAK4 Q293X mutation compared to PBM from 5 healthy individuals.

RNA samples (1ug total RNA) from BMDCs were labeled with fluorescent dyes using the Quick Amp Labeling Kit (Agilent). Microarray (AgilentWhole Mouse Genome chip) hybridizations (65M-BM-0C for 16 hours) and washes were performed with Agilent reagents following standard protocols. Microarrays were analyzed using an Agilent DNA Microarray Scanner G2565CA, and data were acquired using Agilent's Feature Extraction Software version 10.1.1.1. Significant genes were selected based on p< 0.01 and fold change >2.0.
