Project description:CARD9 is an adapter protein, which plays a critical role in anti-fungal immunity. However, the role of CARD9 in fungal-induced autophagy remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that Card9-/- mice displayed more severe phenotype of zymosan-induced peritonitis, presenting as multiple organs injury and increased systemic inflammation. Moreover, the number of macrophage in spleen was increased in Card9-/- mice. Further studies revealed that autophagy was impaired in peritoneal macrophages of Card9-/- -peritonitis mice. Notably, the autophagy agonist, rapamycin, ameliorated peritonitis in Card9-/- mice. Moreover, Card9 mediates the interaction of Malt1 and P62 upon zymosan stimulation. Together, our results confirmed the protective role of Card9 in the development of peritonitis via regulates autophagy in macrophage cells. The study indicates Card9 may be a potential therapeutic target for peritonitis.

Project description:Fungal infections are major causes of morbidity and mortality, especially in immunocompromised individuals. The innate immune system senses fungal pathogens through a family of Syk-coupled C-type lectin receptors (CLRs), which signal through the conserved immune adapter Card9. Although Card9 complexes are essential for antifungal defense in humans and mice, the mechanisms that couple CLR-proximal events to Card9 control are not well defined. Here, using a proteomic approach, we identified Vav proteins as key activators of the Card9 pathway. Vav1, Vav2 and Vav3 cooperate downstream of Dectin-1, Dectin-2 and Mincle to selectively engage Card9 for NF-κB control and proinflammatory gene transcription but are not involved in MAPK activation. Although Vav family members show functional redundancy, Vav1/2/3 triple-deficient cells are severely impaired for NF-κB and cytokine responses upon stimulation with CLR agonists or hyphae, and Vav1/2/3-/- mice phenocopy Card9-/- animals with extreme susceptibility to fungi and rapid mortality upon Candida albicans infection. In this context, Vav3 is the single most important Vav in mice, and a polymorphism in human VAV3 is associated with susceptibility to candidemia in patients. Our results reveal a molecular mechanism for CLR-mediated Card9 regulation that controls innate immunity to fungal infections.

Project description:It is crucial to decipher the host-microbiota interactions as they are involved in intestinal homeostasis and diseases. Caspase Recruitment Domain 9 (Card9) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) susceptibility gene coding for an adapter protein for innate immunity toward many microorganisms. Card9-/- mice are more susceptible to colitis induced by Citrobacter rodentium as a result of impaired of the IL-22 pathway. C. rodentium is a natural mouse pathogen widely used to model human infections with Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and Enterohaemorrhagic E. coli. To explore the role of the gut microbiota in the susceptibility of Card9-/- mice to C. rodentium infection, we colonized WT germ-free (GF) mice with the microbiota of WT (WT-->GF) or Card9-/- (Card9-/- -->GF) mice and challenged them with C. rodentium. Card9-/- -->GF mice were more susceptible than WT-->GF mice to C. rodentium. To examine the mechanisms responsible for this defect, we compared the cecum transcriptomes of WT -->GF and Card9-/- -->GF mice before and during C. rodentium-induced colitis. The number of down-regulated and up-regulated genes on day 12 after C. rodentium infection was lower in Card9-/- -->GF mice than WT-->GF mice. Card9-/- -->GF mice showed a significant down-regulation of gut morphogenesis and wound healing pathways suggesting that recovery is impaired in Card9-/- -->GF mice after C. rodentium infection. Immune response and cell division pathways were up-regulated in WT-->GF mice but not in Card9-/- -->GF confirming the defect of global response to infection when only the Card9-/- microbiota was transferred. The most induced and differentially expressed genes between Card9-/- -->GF and WT-->GF mice on day 4 after C. rodentium infection were Reg3g (encoding REGIIIγ) and Reg3b (encoding REGIIIβ).

Project description:Trichophyton rubrum, an anthropophilic and cosmopolitan fungus, is the most common agent of superficial mycoses. In this study, T. rubrum infection was modelled by adding human skin sections to a limited medium containing glucose and cDNA microarrays were used to monitor T. rubrum gene expression patterns on a global level. We observed that exposure to human skin resulted in upregulation of the expression levels of T. rubrum genes related to many cellular and biological processes, including transcription and translation, metabolism and secondary transport, the stress response, and signalling pathways. These results provide a reference set of T. rubrum genes whose expression patterns change upon infection and reveal previously unknown genes that most likely correspond to proteins that should be considered as virulence factor candidates and potential new drug targets for T. rubrum infection.

Project description:Purpose: We assessed the transcriptome of the pathogenic fungus T. rubrum through RNA-seq analysis to identify transcriptome-wide changes in gene expression after challenge with undecanoic acid (UDA) Methods: T. rubrum conidia (about 1x10^6 conidia per mL) were grown on Sabouraud medium for 96h, at 28ºC under shaking. The resulted mycelium was transferred to RPMI 1640 medium in the absence or presence UDA (17.25 μg/mL) for 3h and 12h under shaking. Approximately 100 mg of frozen mycelia were used for total RNA extraction using Illustra RNAspin Mini Isolation Kit (GE, USA) and treated with RNAse-free DNAse I. RNA concentrations were estimated through NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer, and RNA integrity was verified using Agilent Bioanalyser platform 2100. RNA libraries were prepared for sequencing according to Illumina guidelines. Results: We identified changes in specific functional categories, indicating that a significant number of genes respond to the stress induced by UDA, including those that determine fungal virulence. Moreover, the data generated provide evidence that UDA induces the alternative splicing of several genes involved in diverse metabolic pathways. Conclusions: The general effect of UDA fungal toxicity involves changes to fungal metabolism and mechanisms for regulating pre-mRNA processing events.

Project description:It is crucial to decipher the host-microbiota interactions as they are involved in intestinal homeostasis and diseases. Caspase Recruitment Domain 9 (Card9) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) susceptibility gene coding for an adapter protein for innate immunity toward many microorganisms. Card9 mediates colitis recovery via interleukin 22 pathway activation and Card9-/- mice have enhanced susceptibility to colitis. To reveal the mechanisms responsible of this defect in Card9-/-mice, we compared colon transcriptomics in WT and Card9-/- mice before and during DSS-induced colitis. Mice transcriptomes clusterized according to the genotype supporting a pattern clearly different in WT and Card9-/- mice. The number of up-regulated genes at day 7 was largely higher in Card9-/- compared to WT mice. Pathway analyses of the induced transcripts showed a dominance of immune-related pathway with a stronger signal in Card9-/- mice. Interestingly, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, in which CARD9 is involved, was an exception with weaker activation in Card9-/- than in WT mice. During the recovery period at day 12, pathways involved in cell proliferation and replication were significantly activated in WT compared to Card9-/- mice confirming the healing defect in Card9-/- mice. For the induction of colitis, mice were given drinking water supplemented with 2% (w/v) Dextran sulphate sodium (DSS) for 7 days, then allowed to recover by drinking water alone for 5 additional days. 3 mice of each groups (WT and Card9-/-) were sacrified before DSS administration. 5 WT mice and 4 Card9-/- mice were sacrified 7 days after DSS administration and 5 mice of each group were sacrified at day 12.
