Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mannose-Capped Lipoarabinomannan Induces IL-10-Producing B Cells and Hinders CD4+Th1 Immunity.

ABSTRACT: The importance of Th1/interferon (IFN)-?-mediated responses in mycobacterial infection has been well established. However, little is known about B cell-mediated immunity during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. Interleukin (IL)-10-producing B cells (B10 cells), a subset of B regulatory cells (Bregs), are implicated in modulating the immune response. Herein, we found that B10 cells were significantly increased in patients with tuberculosis. Furthermore, mannose-capped lipoarabinomannan (ManLAM), a major surface lipoglycan component from Mtb, induced a significant increase in B10 cells, which enriched in CD5+ B1a B cells. ManLAM induced IL-10 production mainly by activating MyD88/PI3K/AKT/Ap-1 and K63-linked ubiquitination of NF-?B essential modulator/nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells signaling pathways in B cells via Toll-like receptor 2. IL-10 production by ManLAM-treated B cells further inhibited CD4+ Th1 polarization, leading to increased susceptibility to mycobacterial infection compared with ManLAM-treated IL-10-/- B group. Thus, we report a new immunoregulation mechanism in which Mtb ManLAM-induced B10 cells negatively regulate host anti-TB cellular immunity.

Project description:CD4+ T cells have a central role in controlling Mtb infection (1). Despite immune control, Mtb persists by interfering with macrophage and T cell function, allowing for pathogen survival. Our group has demonstrated direct and indirect inhibition of CD4+ T cell activation by different Mtb molecules including lipoproteins LpqH, LprA and LprG, and ManLAM (2-5). ManLAM is an abundant glycolipid in the Mtb cell wall and interferes with TCR signaling by down-regulating phosphorylation of Lck, CD3, ZAP70 and LAT (6). Activation through the TCR-CD3 complex leads to marked changes in the proteome of T cells. Entry into cell cycle, production of cytokines and differentiation from naïve to effector and memory T cell are all reflected in the production and modification of multiple proteins. Mass spectrometry (MS) has been used to characterize TCR complex formation (7-11) and the effect of a range of stressors on the T cell proteome (12-14). Recent advances have overcome technical issues in quantitative MS and allow analysis of the complexity and dynamic range of the cellular proteome (15). To extract biological meaning different bioinformatic tools have been developed for MS based cellular studies (16, 17). In this study we used label-free quantitative MS to characterize the effect of ManLAM on the proteome of activated CD4+ T cells. Approximately 5000 peptides were identified and quantitated from three biological experimental datasets in primary murine CD4+ T cells treated with or without ManLAM and activated with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 monoclonal antibodies (mAb). Peptides with varying abundance were selected by likelihood ratio based statistical significance by comparing the intensities under different experimental conditions. ManLAM treatment resulted in abundance changes for 149 peptides representing 131 proteins in the activated CD4+ T cell proteome that affected a variety of enriched cluster modules and pathways. Validation experiments confirmed Man LAM induced inhibition of Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) that regulates cell cycle progression. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis revealed a central role for the Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. WB studies revealed decreased phosphorylation of both Akt and mTOR in ManLAM treated CD4+ T cells as well as decreased expression of Otub1, a key molecule regulated by mTOR. Thus disruption of the activated CD4+ T cell proteome by ManLAM-mediated inhibition of proximal TCR signaling is primarily mediated through inhibition of Akt-mTOR signaling.

Project description:Lipoarabinomannan (LAM) is a major glycolipid in the mycobacterial cell envelope. LAM consists of a mannosylphosphatidylinositol (MPI) anchor, a mannan core and a branched arabinan domain. The termini of the arabinan branches can become substituted with one to three ?(1?2)-linked mannosyl residues, the mannose cap, producing ManLAM. ManLAM has been associated with a range of different immunomodulatory properties of Mycobacterium tuberculosis during infection of the host. In some of these effects, the presence of the mannose cap on ManLAM appears to be crucial for its activity. So far, in the biosynthesis of the mannose cap on ManLAM, two enzymes have been reported to be involved: a mannosyltransferase that adds the first mannosyl residue of the mannose caps to the arabinan domain of LAM, and another mannosyltransferase that elongates the mannose cap up to three mannosyl residues. Here, we report that a third gene is involved, MMAR_2380, which is the Mycobacterium marinum orthologue of Rv1565c. MMAR_2380 encodes a predicted transmembrane acyltransferase. In M. marinum ?MMAR_2380, the LAM arabinan domain is still intact, but the mutant LAM lacks the mannose cap. Additional effects of mutation of MMAR_2380 on LAM were observed: a higher degree of branching of both the arabinan domain and the mannan core, and a decreased incorporation of [1,2-(14)C]acetate into the acyl chains in mutant LAM as compared with the wild-type form. This latter effect was also observed for related lipoglycans, i.e. lipomannan (LM) and phosphatidylinositol mannosides (PIMs). Furthermore, the mutant strain showed increased aggregation in liquid cultures as compared with the wild-type strain. All phenotypic traits of M. marinum ?MMAR_2380, the deficiency in the mannose cap on LAM and changes at the cell surface, could be reversed by complementing the mutant strain with MMAR_2380. Strikingly, membrane preparations of the mutant strain still showed enzymic activity for the arabinan mannose-capping mannosyltransferase similar to that of the wild-type strain. Although the exact function of MMAR_2380 remains unknown, we show that the protein is essential for the presence of a mannose cap on LAM.
