Glutathione-dependent redox balance characterizes the distinct metabolic properties of follicular and marginal zone B cells

ABSTRACT: The metabolic principles underlying the differences between follicular and marginal zone B cells (FoB and MZB, respectively) are not well understood. Here we show, by studying mice with B cell-specific ablation of the catalytic subunit of glutamate cysteine ligase (Gclc), that glutathione synthesis affects homeostasis and differentiation of MZB to a larger extent than FoB, while glutathione-dependent redox control contributes to the metabolic dependencies of FoB. Specifically, Gclc ablation in FoB induces metabolic features of wild-type MZB such as increased ATP levels, glucose metabolism, mTOR activation and protein synthesis. Furthermore, Gclc-deficient FoB have a block in the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) due to diminished complex I and II activity and thereby accumulate the tricarboxylic acid cycle metabolite succinate. Finally, Gclc deficiency hampers FoB activation and antibody responses in vitro and in vivo, and induces susceptibility to viral infections. In summary, Gclc is required to ensure the development of MZB, the integrity of the mitochondrial ETC in FoB and it is crucial for antibody-mediated immunity.

Glutathione restricts serine metabolism to preserve regulatory T cell function

Project description:Regulatory T cells (Tregs) maintain immune homeostasis and prevent autoimmunity. Serine can stimulate glutathione (GSH) synthesis and feeds into the one-carbon metabolic cycle essential for effector T cell (Teff) responses. However, serine’s functions, linkage to GSH, and role in stress responses in Tregs are unknown. Here we show, using mice with Treg-specific ablation of the catalytic subunit of glutamate cysteine ligase (Gclc), that GSH loss in Tregs alters serine import and synthesis, and that the integrity of this feedback loop is critical for Treg suppressive capacity. Although Gclc-ablation does not impair Treg differentiation, the mutant mice develop severe spontaneous autoimmunity and show enhanced anti-tumor responses. Gclc-deficient Tregs exhibit increased serine metabolism, mTOR activation and proliferation but FoxP3 was downregulated. Limitation of cellular serine in vitro and in vivo restores FoxP3 expression and suppressive capacity to Gclc-deficient Tregs. Our work reveals an unexpected role for GSH in restricting serine availability to preserve Treg functionality.

A Th17 cell-intrinsic glutathione/mitochondrial-IL-22 axis protects against intestinal inflammation

Project description:The intestinal tract generates significant reactive oxygen species (ROS), but the role of T cell antioxidant mechanisms in maintaining intestinal homeostasis is poorly understood. We used T cell-specific ablation of the catalytic subunit of glutamate cysteine ligase (Gclc), which impaired glutathione (GSH) production, crucially reducing IL-22 production by Th17 cells in the lamina propria, which is critical for gut protection. Under steady-state conditions, Gclc deficiency did not alter cytokine secretion; however, C. rodentium infection induced increased ROS and disrupted mitochondrial function and TFAM-driven mitochondrial gene expression, resulting in decreased cellular ATP. These changes impaired the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, reducing phosphorylation of 4E-BP1 and consequently limiting IL-22 translation. The resultant low IL-22 levels led to poor bacterial clearance, severe intestinal damage, and high mortality. Our findings highlight a previously unrecognized, essential role of Th17 cell-intrinsic GSH in promoting mitochondrial function and cellular signaling for IL-22 protein synthesis, which is critical for intestinal integrity and defense against gastrointestinal infections.

Effect of liver-specific deletion of Gclc, Nrf2, and Gclc-Nrf2 on the liver

Project description:The rate-limiting step in glutathione (GSH) synthesis is controlled by glutamate-cysteine ligase catalytic subunit. GSH is reported to buffer oxidative stress. In the absence of GSH, the antioxidant transcription factor Nrf2 is reported to be stabilized. The liver has the highest levels of GSH, but its impact on liver homeostasis is unclear. To investigate this, we induced a liver-specific deletion of Gclc (Gclc f/f), Nrf2 (Nrf2 f/f), or Gclc-Nrf2 (Gclc f/f Nrf2 f/f) by injecting my via tail-vein with AAV-TBG-Cre, which induces recombination specifically in hepatocytes.

Defective NADPH Production in Mitochondrial Disease Complex I Causes Inflammation and Cell Death

Project description:Electron transport chain (ETC) defects occurring from mitochondrial disease mutations compromise ATP synthesis and render cells vulnerable to nutrient and oxidative stress conditions. This bioenergetic failure is thought to underlie pathologies associated with mitochondrial diseases. However, the precise metabolic processes resulting from a defective mitochondrial ETC that compromise cell viability under stress conditions are not entirely understood. We design a whole genome gain-of-function CRISPR activation screen using human mitochondrial disease complex I (CI) mutant cells to identify genes whose increased function rescue glucose restriction-induced cell death. The top hit of the screen is the cytosolic Malic Enzyme (ME1), that is sufficient to enable survival and proliferation of CI mutant cells under nutrient stress conditions. Unexpectedly, this metabolic rescue is independent of increased ATP synthesis through glycolysis or oxidative phosphorylation, but dependent on ME1-produced NADPH and glutathione (GSH). Survival upon nutrient stress or pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) inhibition depends on compensatory NADPH production through the mitochondrial one-carbon metabolism that is severely compromised in CI mutant cells. Importantly, this defective CI-dependent decrease in mitochondrial NADPH production pathway or genetic ablation of SHMT2 causes strong inflammatory cytokine signatures associated with redox dependent induction of ASK1 and activation of stress kinases p38 and JNK. These studies find that a major defect of CI deficiencies is decreased mitochondrial one-carbon NADPH production that is associated with increased inflammation and cell death.

Raw data for manuscript : "Serine synthesis via reversed SHMT2 activity drives glycine depletion and acetaminophen hepatotoxicity in MASLD"

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects one third of the global population. Understanding metabolic pathways involved can provide insights into disease progression and treatment. Untargeted metabolomics of livers from mice with early-stage steatosis uncovered decreased methylated metabolites, suggesting altered one-carbon metabolism. The levels of glycine, a central component of one-carbon metabolism, were lower in mice with hepatic steatosis, consistent with clinical evidence. Stable-isotope tracing demonstrated that increased serine synthesis from glycine via reverse serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is the underlying cause for decreased glycine in steatotic livers. Consequently, limited glycine availability in steatotic livers impaired glutathione synthesis under acetaminophen-induced oxidative stress, enhancing acute hepatotoxicity. Glycine supplementation or hepatocyte-specific ablation of the mitochondrial SHMT2 isoform in mice with hepatic steatosis mitigated acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity by supporting de novo glutathione synthesis. Thus, early metabolic changes in MASLD that limit glycine availability sensitize mice to xenobiotics even at the reversible stage of this disease.

BCR and TLR-induced IRF1 promotes T cell independent B cell responses by supporting Notch2 dependent Marginal Zone B cell development

Project description:The prototypic interferon (IFN)-inducible transcription factor, IRF1, not only controls expression of IFN genes but also regulates T cell and macrophage fate specification and function. We show that IRF1 expression in B cells is required for marginal zone B (MZB) cell development and T cell independent antibody responses [80% B6.129S2-Ighmtm1Cgn/J (MT) + B6.129S2-Irf1tm1Mak/J (Irf1-/-), B-Irf1-/- chimeras]. While IFNs can induce IRF1 expression in MZB precursors, IFN signaling is not required for MZB cell development [C57BL/6J (B6), B6.129S7-Ifngr1tm1Agt/J (Ifngr1-/-), B6(Cg)-Ifnar1tm1Agt/J (Ifnar1-/-)]. Instead, BCR and TLR signals, which influence MZB commitment, promote IRF1 expression and nuclear translocation in MZB cell precursors. In turn, IRF1 is required for Notch-dependent gene expression in transitional B cells and development of the MZB cell compartment. Thus, T independent MZB-driven antibody responses are regulated by BCR and TLR signals that initiate IRF1-dependent Notch programming of transitional B cells and subsequent commitment of these cells to the MZB lineage.

RNA binding protein Pcbp1 maintains mitochondria integrity to promote antibody production and germinal center response[scRNA-seq]

Project description:B cells are crucial for adaptive immunity, orchestrating humoral responses by producing antibodies essential for pathogen clearance. Here, we show that Poly(rC) binding protein 1 (Pcbp1), a multifunctional RNA-binding protein, is a key regulator of antibody production in B cells. Pcbp1 deficiency in B cells resulted in significant reductions in IgM expression at steady state and compromised differentiation of germinal center B cells and production of high-affinity antibodies upon immunization. These effects result from compromised mitochondrial integrity in Pcbp1-deficient B cells, including compromised mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) complex I and increased mitochondrial ROS production. Blocking mitochondrial ROS production rescued IgM production and improved germinal center responses caused by Pcbp1 deficiency. Mechanistically, Pcbp1 promotes the expression of Fdxr, a critical component of ETC complex I, via binding to its 3’UTR. Overall, our findings reveal a novel role for Pcbp1 in regulating mitochondrial function, protein synthesis, and antibody responses in B cells, providing novel insight into post-transcriptional regulation and mitochondrial functions.
