Identification of host regulators of Mycobacterium tuberculosis phenotypic states uncovers a role for the MMGT1-GPR156-lipid droplet axis in the induction of persistence [THP1_MMGT1_RNAseq]

ABSTRACT: The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to establish latency directly impacts disease and response to treatment but the host’s influence on this switch remains elusive. Using a novel Mtb reporter strain to separate macrophages infected with replicating or latent Mtb, we performed transcriptomics and genome-wide CRISPR screens. After validating the recovery of known susceptibility loci from TB GWAS as modifiers of active replication, we identified multiple pathways and novel modulators of latency. We validated multiple controllers of latency and mechanistically characterized the transporter MMGT1. MMGT1-deficient macrophages upregulated lipid metabolism genes and accumulated lipid droplets during infection. Critically, targeting triacylglycerol synthesis reduced both droplet formation and Mtb latency. We identified GPR156, an orphan GPCR as a key inducer of droplet accumulation in ΔMMGT1 cells. Altogether, our work uncovers the role of MMGT1-GPR156-lipid droplets in the induction of Mtb latency, suggesting that host-directed therapies could be used to modulate Mtb phenotypes during infection.

Impaired fatty acid import and metabolism in macrophages restricts intracellular growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection of macrophages reprograms cellular lipid metabolism to promote the formation of cytosolic lipid droplets. While it is clearly known that intracellular Mtb utilize host derived fatty acids and cholesterol to fuel a majority of its biosynthetic demands, the role of macrophage lipid metabolism on the bacteria’s ability to access the intracellular lipid pool remains controversial. We have utilized a CRISPR genetic knockdown approach to, systematically and comprehensively, characterize the role of macrophage fatty acid metabolism on the intracellular growth of Mtb. Our analyzes demonstrate that knockdown of lipid import, sequestration and metabolism genes collectively impair the intracellular growth of Mtb in macrophages. We further demonstrate that modulating fatty acids homeostasis in macrophages impair Mtb replication by enhancing production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, restricting the bacteria access to nutrients and increasing oxidative stress in a manner which is surprisingly divergent. We also demonstrate that impaired macrophage lipid droplet biogenesis is restrictive to intracellular Mtb growth. However, increased induction of lipid droplet formation by downstream blockade of fatty acid oxidation does not rescue the impaired Mtb growth phenotypes. Our work provides a characterization of macrophage fatty acid homeostasis and how its modulation impacts Mtb intracellular growth.

Lipid droplet proteomics of THP1 macrophages infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Project description:Growing evidence suggests the importance of lipid metabolism in pathogenesis of tuberculosis. Neutral lipids form the majority of lipids in caseous granulomas characteristic of tuberculosis. Macrophage lipid droplets form the store house of these lipids, yet infection induced changes in the proteome of these dynamic organelles remains elusive. Here we employed quantitative proteomics to identify alterations induced upon infection with live Mycobacterium tuberculosis in comparison with heat killed bacilli and uninfected macrophages. Association of specific proteins coupled with lysosomal function was found to be increased upon infection with live M. tuberculosis. Biochemical and microscopy based evidence validated the enrichment of the small GTPase Arl8b, the guanine nucleotide effector LAMTOR1, and the scavenger receptor SCARB2 on lipid droplets during live Mtb infection. We validated the localization of Arl8b on lipid droplets using super-resolution microscopy. Increased abundance of these lysosomal proteins on lipid droplets upon infection with live Mtb suggests active manipulation of the host lipid droplets by the pathogen. Furthermore, depletion of lipid droplets upon stable knockdown of diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase led to reduction in lysosomal acidification of infected cells, suggesting an active role of lipid droplets in lysosomal function during infection.

The lipid droplet protein DHRS3 is a regulator of melanoma cell state

Project description:Lipid droplets are fat storage organelles composed of a protein envelope and a lipid rich core. Dynamic regulation of this protein envelope underlies differential lipid droplet formation and function in diverse cell types. In melanoma, the ability to form lipid droplets has been linked to tumor progression and metastasis, but it is not known whether lipid droplet proteins play a role in these phenotypes. To address this, we performed proteomic analysis of the lipid droplet envelope in melanoma. We found that proteins expressed in the lipid droplet were differentially enriched in distinct melanoma states, ranging from melanocytic to neural crest like. DHRS3, which is involved in the conversion of all-trans-retinal to all-trans-retinol, is significantly upregulated in the MITFLO/neural crest-like melanoma cell state, and markedly reduced in the MITFHI/melanocytic state. Increased DHRS3 expression is sufficient to drive the MITFHI/melanocytic cells to a more undifferentiated and invasive state. These changes are due to retinoic acid mediated regulation of melanocytic genes through the retinoid X receptors (RXR). Our data demonstrate that melanoma cell state can be regulated by expression of lipid droplet proteins which affect downstream retinoid signaling.

Diet-MEF2 Interactions Shape Lipid Droplet Diversification in Muscle to Influence Drosophila Lifespan

Project description:The number, size, and composition of lipid droplets can be influenced by dietary changes that shift energy substrate availability. This diversification of lipid droplets can promote metabolic flexibility and shape cellular stress responses in unique tissues with distinctive metabolic roles. Using Drosophila, we uncovered a role for myocyte enhancer-factor 2 (MEF2) in modulating diet-dependent lipid droplet diversification within adult striated muscle, impacting mortality rates. Muscle-specific attenuation of MEF2, whose chronic activation maintains glucose and mitochondrial homeostasis, leads to the accumulation of large, cholesterol ester-enriched intramuscular lipid droplets in response to high calorie, carbohydrate sufficient diets. The diet-dependent accumulation of these lipid droplets also correlates with both enhanced stress protection in muscle and increases in organismal lifespan. Furthermore, MEF2 attenuation releases an antagonistic regulation of cell cycle gene expression programs, and up-regulation of Cyclin E is required for diet-and-MEF2 dependent diversification of intramuscular lipid droplets. The integration of MEF2-regulated gene expression networks with dietary responses thus plays a critical role in shaping muscle metabolism and function, further influencing organismal lifespan. Together, these results highlight a potential protective role for intramuscular lipid droplets during dietary adaptation.

Physiologic media renders human iPSC-derived macrophages permissive for M. tuberculosis by rewiring organelle function and metabolism

Project description:In vitro studies are crucial for our understanding of the human macrophage immune functions. However, traditional in vitro culture media poorly reflect the metabolic composition of blood, potentially affecting the outcomes of these studies. Here, we analysed the impact of a physiological medium on human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived macrophages (iPSDM) function. Macrophages cultured in a human plasma-like medium (HPLM) were more permissive to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) replication and showed decreased lipid metabolism with increased metabolic polarisation. Functionally, HPLM-differentiated macrophages showed different metabolic organelle content and activity. Specifically, HPLM-cultured macrophages displayed reduced lipid droplet and peroxisome content, increased lysosomal proteolytic activity, and increased mitochondrial activity and dynamics. Inhibiting or inducing lipid droplet formation revealed that lipid droplet content is a key factor influencing macrophage permissiveness to Mtb. These findings underscore the importance of using physiologically relevant media in vitro for accurately studying human macrophage function.

Microglial REV-ERBα regulates inflammation and lipid droplet formation to drive tauopathy

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease is associated with disrupted circadian rhythms and clock gene expression. REV-ERBα (Nr1d1) is a circadian transcriptional repressor involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism and macrophage function. While global REV-ERBα deletion increases microglial activation and mitigates amyloid plaque formation, the cell-autonomous effects of microglial REV-ERBα on tau pathology are unexplored. Here, we show that microglial REV-ERBα deletion enhances inflammatory signaling, disrupts lipid metabolic processes, and causes lipid droplet (LD) accumulation specifically in male microglia. Inflammation and LD accumulation combine to inhibit microglial tau phagocytosis, which can be partially rescued by blockage of lipid droplet formation. Microglial REV-ERBα deletion exacerbates tau aggregation and neuroinflammation in P301S and AAV-P301L tauopathy models in male, but not female mice. These data demonstrate the importance of microglial lipid droplets in tau accumulation and reveal REV-ERBα as a therapeutically accessible, sex-dependent regulator of microglial inflammatory signaling, lipid metabolism, and tauopathy.

Saturated fatty acids promotes β-cell toxicity by disabling intracellular lipid droplet formation through S-acylation of FIT2

Project description:Palm and coconut oils are linked to cardiovascular disease and diabetes because of their high saturated fatty acid (SFA) content but exactly how exogenous SFAs, but not unsaturated fatty acids (UFA), are toxic to cells remains unknown. In insulin-producing, β-cells of the Islets of Langerhans, loss of which exacerbates diabetes, we found that SFAs but not UFAs were toxic because they disable a highly conserved lipid droplet biogenesis machinery. We show that palmitate (a major SFA of these oils), but not palmitoleic or oleic, S-acylates the highly conserved ER-resident FITM2 protein, required for lipid coalescence and droplet budding from the ER. The S-acylation marks FITM2 for ubiquitination and proteosomal degradation, leaving SFAs within the ER instead safe sequestration within lipid droplets. ER-stress ensues with rapid induction of ER stress leading to β-cell apoptosis. Specific deletion of FITM2 in β-cells disrupts calcium signaling and key β-cell TFs and exacerbates high fat diet-induced ER stress and diabetes. Rescue by overexpression ameliorates ER-stress and β-cell apoptosis thus demonstrating an important link between lipid species and cell ability to sequester them away from the ER in the form of lipid droplets.

Disruption of HSD17B12 in mouse hepatocytes leads to reduce body weight and defect in the lipid droplet expansion associated with microvesicular steatosis

Project description:Hepatocyte-specific knockout mice of Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 12 (LiB12cKO) show significant fat accumulation in their liver. As they age, they also show a reduced whole-body fat percentage. However, liver fat accumulation does not result in the typical formation of large lipid droplets; instead, small droplets were more prevalent in the LiB12cKO liver. This indicates a failure in the lipid droplet (LD) expansion. This was associated with liver damage, presumably due to lipotoxicity. The increase in the CIDEC expression further supported the deficiency in LD expansion in the LiB12cKO liver, and the downregulation of several members of the MUP family of proteins suggests the presence of endoplasmic reticulum stress LiB12cKO liver.
