Bulk RNA-seq analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infected Sp140-sufficient and -deficient mouse lungs with and without pDC depletion

ABSTRACT: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) causes 1.5 million deaths annually. Active tuberculosis correlates with a neutrophil-driven type I interferon (IFN) signature, but the underlying cellular mechanisms remain poorly understood. We found that interstitial macrophages (IMs) and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are dominant producers of type I IFN during Mtb infection in mice and non-human primates, and pDCs localize near human Mtb granulomas. Depletion of pDCs reduces Mtb burdens, implicating pDCs in tuberculosis pathogenesis. During IFN-driven disease, we observe abundant DNA-containing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) known to activate pDCs. Single cell RNA-seq indicates that type I IFNs act on IMs to impair their responses to IFNg, a cytokine critical for Mtb control. Cell type-specific disruption of the type I IFN receptor suggests IFNs act on IMs to inhibit Mtb control. We propose pDC-derived type I IFNs, driven by NETs, act on IMs to drive bacterial replication, further neutrophil recruitment, and active tuberculosis disease.

Bulk RNA-seq analysis of bone marrow-derived macrophages stimulated with various cytokines

Type I IFNs exacerbate tuberculosis pathogenesis by inhibiting migration of antigen specific T cells

Project description:Tuberculosis, a chronic granulomatous disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), often becomes exacerbated upon co-infection with other pathogens, yet the underlying immunological mechanisms remain insufficiently understood. Here, mice were initially infected with the hypervirulent Mtb strain K, and later with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus to investigate the mechanism of severe pulmonary pathology. Virus infection significantly reduced Mtb-specific IFN-g, increased bacterial loads, and aggravated lung inflammation in the lung of Mtb-infected mice, which did not occur in pre-existence of Th1 response by Bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccination prior to the co-infection. Blockade of type I IFN receptor signaling reinvigorated Mtb-specific IFN-γ response and ameliorated pathogenesis by upregulating pulmonary CXCL9/10 production. Our results demonstrate that virus-induced type I IFN triggers severe immunopathology by deteriorating migration of Mtb-specific IFN-γ-producing T cells, suggesting the balance between type I and type II IFNs determines either control of Mtb or exacerbation of pathology in the lung upon viral infection

NCF1-dependent low production of reactive oxygen species in plasmacytoid dendritic cells exacerbates lupus

Project description:Low capacity to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to mutations in neutrophil cytosolic factor 1 (NCF1/p47phox) is strongly associated with lupus development both in humans and mouse models. Here, we aim to identify the major mechanisms of the Ncf1-disease association. We found that plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), the most potent producers of type I IFNs, exacerbate pristane-induced lupus in ROS-defective Ncf1-mutant and human NCF1-339 variant carrying mice. ROS deficiency in mouse models with Ncf1 mutation or human NCF1-339 variant leads to enhanced pDC generation via the TLR7/AKT/mTOR pathway and accumulation at sites of inflammation, resulting in an increased IFNα secretion. The produced IFNα further stimulates the JAK1/STAT1 pathway, which we found is hyperreactive in ROS-deficient pDCs. This, in turn, leads to increased type I IFN signature and enhanced proinflammatory responses. Our discoveries explain the causative effect of dysfunctional Ncf1 and pathogenicity of pDCs in lupus.

IFN? expression is restricted to a subpopulation of splenic pDCs exhibiting a specific immune modulatory transcriptome signature

Project description:Type I IFNs are critical in initiating protective antiviral immune responses and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) represent a major source of these cytokines. Here we show that only few pDCs are capable to produce IFN? after virus infection or CpG stimulation. Utilizing IFN?/YFP reporter mice, we identify these IFN?-producing cells in the spleen as a CCR9+CD9- pDC subset exclusively localized within the T/B cell zones. IFN?-producing pDCs exhibit a distinct transcriptome profile with higher expression of genes encoding cytokines and chemokines, facilitating T cell recruitment and activation. These distinctive characteristics of IFN?-producing pDCs are independent of the type I IFN receptor mediated feedback loop. Furthermore, IFN?-producing pDCs exhibit enhanced CCR7-dependent migratory properties in vitro and in a peritoneal inflammation model they effectively recruit T cells in vivo. We define “professional type I IFN-producing cells” as a distinct subset of pDCs specialized in coordinating cellular immune responses. IFN? associated gene expression in ex vivo sorted IFN?/YFPpos vs. IFN?/YFPneg splenic pDCs was measured at 6 hr after i.v. injection of CpG 1668 complexed to DOTAP. Two independent experiments were performed using pooled samples of at least 12 mice per experiment.

The cytosolic DNA sensor cGAS recognizes Neutrophil Extracellular Traps

Project description:Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are structures consisting of chromatin and antimicrobial molecules that are released by neutrophils during a form of regulated cell death called NETosis. NETs trap invading pathogens, promote coagulation and activate myeloid cells to produce Type I interferons (type I IFN), proinflammatory cytokines that regulate the immune system. The mechanism of NET recognition by myeloid cells is not yet clearly identified. Here we show that macrophages and other myeloid cells phagocytose NETs. Once in phagosomes, NETs translocate to the cytosol, where they activate the DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) and induce type I IFN expression. cGAS recognizes the DNA backbone of NETs. Interestingly, the NET associated serine protease Neutrophil Elastase (NE) mediates the activation of the pathway. We confirmed that NETs activate cGAS in vivo. Thus, our findings identify cGAS as a major sensor of NETs, mediating the immune activation during infection and in auto-immune diseases.

Rifampicin drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection suppresses in vivo immune responses through a Type I Interferon response.

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), latently infects one quarter of the world’s population. The rise of multidrug resistant (MDR) Mtb infections worldwide presents a significant obstacle to curb TB globally. While human studies report dysregulated immune responses in MDR TB patients, there is a lack of clear understanding of the host-pathogen interactions following MDR Mtb infection. We recently showed that Mtb carrying a rifampicin drug resistance (RDR)-conferring single nucleotide polymorphism in the RNA polymerase-B gene (Mtb rpoB-H445Y) can modulate host macrophage metabolic reprogramming by production of Type I IFNs. Here, using a mouse model, we have characterized the host immune response in vivo following RDR Mtb infection. We show that despite establishment of Mtb infection in the lung and dissemination to the peripheral organs, lung myeloid and lymphoid immune responses to RDR Mtb is suppressed through a Type I IFN-dependent mechanism. These results coincide with a muted responses in the bone marrow hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and progenitors following RDR Mtb infection. These results suggest that host directed therapeutics and vaccines for drug resistant TB may need to be target specific host immune pathways for protection.

GM-CSF controls Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection by limiting type I IFN-driven neutrophil extracellular trap formation [Blood]

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) remains the world’s top infectious killer. Understanding how immune mediators determine the outcome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection could facilitate the design of better therapies against this devastating disease. GM-CSF mediates protective immunity against TB but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. To determine the molecular mechanisms underlying the protective role of GM-CSF during M. tuberculosis infection we performed RNA-sequencing analyses of whole blood and lung samples obtained from C57Bl/6 mice infected with HN878 and treated with anti-GM-CSF monoclonal antibody or isotype control. Uninfected mice were also treated and used as uninfected controls. Three weeks post-infection, whole blood and lungs were harvested from each individual mouse and processed for RNA-sequencing. Transcriptomic analyses revealed that during M. tuberculosis infection GM-CSF regulates the expression of genes associated with neutrophil recruitment and activation and type I IFN-inducible genes, which have been previously associated with TB pathogenesis. Further mechanistical studies showed that disease exacerbation driven by GM-CSF blockade during M. tuberculosis infection was type I IFN and neutrophil-dependent and that over-activation of neutrophils by type I IFN induced NET formation at the site of infection. NETs were also found in necrotic lung lesions from patients with pulmonary TB and type I IFN-driven NET formation correlated with increased disease susceptibility in different mouse models of TB. Our findings reveal an important immune network that may play a central role in determining TB outcome.

RNA externalized by neutrophil extracellular traps promotes inflammatory pathways in endothelial cells

Project description:Abstract. Objectives: Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are extracellular lattices composed of nucleic material bound to neutrophil granule proteins. NETs may play pathogenic roles in development and severity of autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), at least in part, through induction of type I interferon (IFN) responses via externalization of oxidized immunostimulatory DNA. A distinct subset of SLE proinflammatory neutrophils (low density granulocytes; LDGs) displays enhanced ability to form proinflammatory NETs that damage the vasculature. We assessed whether NET-bound RNA can contribute to inflammatory responses in endothelial cells and the pathways that mediate this effect. Methods: Expression of newly-synthesized RNA was quantified if healthy control and lupus NETs. The ability of endothelial cells to take up NET-bound RNA and downstream induction of type I IFN responses was quantified. RNAs present in NETs were sequenced and specific small RNAs were tested for induction of endothelial type I IFN pathways. Results: NETs extruded newly-synthesized RNA that was internalized by endothelial cells and this was enhanced when NET nucleic acids were oxidized, particularly in lupus LDG NETs. Internalization of NET-bound total RNA by endothelial cells was dependent on endosomal TLRs and the actin cytoskeleton and induced type I IFN stimulated genes (ISGs). This ISG induction was dependent on NET-associated miR-let7b, a small RNA expressed at higher levels in LDG NETs, which acted as a TLR7 agonist. Conclusion: These results highlight underappreciated roles for small RNAs externalized in NETs in the induction of proinflammatory responses in vascular cells, with implications to lupus vasculopathy.
