NanoString analysis of mouse granulomas induced by H. polygyrus infection

ABSTRACT: Heligmosomoides polygyrus larvae induce a strong intestinal granuloma response within their murine host, which has been associated with resistance. Immune cells, mostly alternatively activated macrophages and eosinophils, accumulate around the tissue encysted parasites to immobilize and damage/kill developing worms. In a one dose (bolus) experimental infection, infected C57Bl/6 mice are unable to clear parasites which results in chronic infection with high worm burdens. However, using a frequent dose trickle model of infection, we, like others, have found that C57Bl/6 mice can clear infection. The nanoString data included here measure the expression of key myeloid genes within the granuloma tissue from bolus and trickle infections. Our results highlight the importance of the granuloma in the host’s ability to clear H. polygyrus and emphasise the need to study this key tissue in more depth, rather than using correlates such as general intestinal or systemic responses.

Parasitic helminths repress the canonical intestinal stem cell program

Project description:The intestinal helminth parasite Heligmosomoides polygyrus initiates infection in mice by penetrating the duodenal mucosa, where it develops while surrounded by a multicellular granulomatous infiltrate before emerging into the intestinal lumen. We examined early H. polygyrus infection to assess the epithelial response to disruption of the mucosal barrier. Unexpectedly, intestinal stem cell markers, including Lgr5 and Olfm4, were completely lost in crypts overlying larvae-associated granulomas. We sought to identify the mechanism by which the H. polygyrus granuloma represses the activity of intestinal stem cells.

RNAseq of duodenal tissue from C57BL/6 mice both susceptible and resistant to Heligmosomoides polygyrus

Project description:Purpose: Identify genes implicated in resistance to H. polygyrus Method: RNA was extracted from duodenal tissue from C57BL/6 mice during primary and secondary H. polygyrus. Total RNA libraries were created using the Encore® Complete RNA-Seq Library Systems kit (NuGEN), following manufacturer’s instructions. Total RNA libraries were sequenced using the Illumina® HiSeq 2500. The raw Illumina reads were analysed as follows. First, the data quality was analysed using FastQC. Then the low quality bases were trimmed using Trimmomatic. The read pairs which passed the trimming quality filters were then aligned to mm10 (Ensembl version 75) using Tophat2. Counts were determined using htseq_count. Normalisation and statistical analysis was performed using edgeR. Differential gene analysis was calculated from naïve control group (A). Statistically significant genes with FDR < 0.05 are reported. Results: Following analysis, we identified many transcripts significantly different from the naïve control following primary and secondary H. polygyrus infection. Conclusions: The intestinal transcriptome of both primary and secondary infected mice differ significantly, identifying qualitative and quantitative differences between susceptible (primary infected) and resistant (secondary infected) mice.

Gene expression analysis of ex-Foxp3 Th2 cells during Heligmosomoides polygyrus infection

Project description:Gene expression of Treg cells that have lost Foxp3 expression and acquired Il4 expression following adoptive transfer into T-cell deficient mice (HpTR-IL-4gfp+), cmpared to conventional Treg cells isolated from H. polygyrus-infected wild-type mice (HpTR) and Th2 cells generated from naïve T cells following adoptive transfer into H. polygyrus-infected T-cell deficient mice (nT-IL-4gfp+). Immunity to intestinal helminth infections requires the rapid activation of T helper 2 (Th2) cells. However, simultaneous expansion of regulatory CD4+Foxp3+ T (Treg) cells impedes protective responses, resulting in chronic infections. The ratio between regulatory and effector T cells can therefore determine the outcome of infection. The re-differentiation of Treg into T helper (Th) cells has been identified in hyper-inflammatory diseases. In this study, we asked whether ex-Treg Th2 cells develop and contribute to type 2 immunity. Using multi-gene reporter and fate-reporter systems we demonstrate that a significant proportion of Th2 cells derive from Foxp3+ cells following Heligmosomoides polygyrus infection and airway allergy. Ex-Foxp3 Th2 cells exhibit characteristic Th2 effector functions and provide immunity to H. polygyrus. Through selective deletion of Il4ra on Foxp3+ cells, we further demonstrate IL-4 is required for the development of ex-Foxp3 Th2 cells. Collectively, our findings indicate that converting Treg cells into Th2 cells could concomitantly enhance Th2 cells and limit Treg-mediated suppression.

Exosomes secreted by a nematode parasite transfer small RNAs to mammalian cells and regulate genes of the innate immune system [Heligmosomoides polygyrus]

Project description:In mammalian systems, extracellular small RNAs can operate in a paracrine manner to communicate information between cells, relying on transport within vesicles. “Foreign” small RNAs derived from bacteria, plants and parasites have also been detected in mammalian body fluids, sparking interest in whether these could mediate inter-species communication. However, there is no mechanistic framework for RNA-mediated interspecies communication and the active movement of RNA via vesicles has not been shown outside of mammals. Here we demonstrate that specific microRNAs and Y RNAs are packaged into vesicles secreted by a gastrointestinal nematode, Heligmosomoides polygyrus, which naturally infects mice. Total RNA was extracted from the secretion product of adult worms and compared to the profile of small RNAs in adult worms, eggs and infective larvae.
