A hepatocyte-specific transcriptional program driven by Rela and Stat3 exacerbates experimental colitis in mice by modulating bile synthesis

ABSTRACT: RelA and Stat3, often collaboratively, induce the synthesis of an array of factors,which orchestrate multiorgan crosstalk in health and diseases. RelA and Stat3 functions in theintestinal epithelial cells are known to tune colon inflammation. If their hepatic activity also impacts inflammation in the gut remains unclear. Here, we reveal that the combined deficiency of RelA and Stat3 specifically in hepatocytes ameliorates DSS-induced experimental colitis. Our transcriptomics analyses identified that they activated a hepatic gene program, which directed the expression of alternate bile synthesis pathway genes. Our metabolomics studies substantiated that an absence of RelA and Stat3 in hepatocytes led to a reduced accumulation of inflammatory bile acids, particularly chenodeoxycholic acid, not only in the liver but also in the gut. Indeed, knockout mice displayed a lessened expression of only in the liver but also in the gut. Indeed, knockout mice displayed a lessened expression of inflammatory cytokines and a diminished recruitment of inflammatory cells in the gut upon colitogenic insults; on the other hand, supplementing chenodeoxycholic acid was sufficient to restore the colitogenic sensitivity in these mice. In sum, we suggest that the engagement of inflammatory transcription factors in distant tissues promotes intestinal pathologies via metabolic wiring.

An epithelial Nfkb2 pathway exacerbates intestinal inflammation by supplementing latent RelA complexes to the canonical NF-kB module

Project description:The canonical NF-kB module induces nuclear translocation of RelA heterodimers from the latent cytoplasmic complexes. RelA directs inflammatory immune responses against microbial entities. However, aberrant RelA activity also triggers destructive inflammation, including those associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). What provokes this pathological RelA activity remains unclear. As such, the noncanonical NF-kB pathway activates RelB heterodimers and mediates immune organogenesis. Because NF-kB-activating pathways are interlinked, we asked if noncanonical NF-kB signaling exacerbated intestinal inflammation. Our investigation revealed recurrent engagement of the noncanonical pathway in human IBD. In a mouse model of chemical colitis, the noncanonical NF-kB signaling gene Nfkb2 aggravated inflammation by amplifying the RelA activity induced in intestinal epithelial cells. Our mechanistic studies clarified that noncanonical signaling augmented the abundance of latent RelA complexes leading to hyperactive canonical NF-kB response in the colitogenic gut. In sum, latent dimer homeostasis appears to link noncanonical NF-kB signaling to RelA-driven inflammatory pathologies.

STAT3 protects from liver injury and fibrosis in a mouse model of sclerosing cholangitis

Project description:Background and aims: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) is the main mediator of interleukin-6 type cytokine signaling required for hepatocyte proliferation and hepatoprotection but its role in sclerosing cholangitis and other cholestatic liver diseases remains unresolved. Methods: We investigated the role of Stat3 in inflammation-induced cholestatic liver injury and used mice lacking the multidrug resistance gene 2 (mdr2-/-) as a model for SC. Results: We demonstrate that conditional inactivation of stat3 in hepatocytes and cholangiocytes (stat3 delta hc) of mdr2-/- mice strongly aggravated bile acid-induced liver injury and fibrosis. A similar phenotype was observed in mdr2-/- mice lacking IL-6 production. Biochemical and molecular characterization suggested that Stat3 exerts hepatoprotective functions in both, hepatocytes and cholangiocytes. Loss of Stat3 in cholangiocytes led to increased expression of TNFÎ± which might reduce the barrier function of bile ducts. Loss of Stat3 in hepatocytes led to upregulation of bile acid biosynthesis genes and downregulation of hepatoprotective epidermal growth factor receptor and insulin-like growth factor 1 signaling pathways. Consistently, stat3deltahc mice were more sensitive to cholic acid-induced liver damage than control mice. Conclusions: Our data suggest that Stat3 prevents cholestasis and liver damage in sclerosing cholangitis via regulation of pivotal functions in hepatocytes and cholangiocytes. Affymetrix microarray analyses was performed to identify metabolic and molecular pathways in stat3Dhc mdr2-/- mice that lead to cholestasis and bile acid-induced liver injury. To avoid false positive results that are due to differential cellular composition, we defined the onset of fibrosis and expression of fibrogenic factors in stat3Dhc mdr2-/- mice.

Expression data from mouse livers lacking STAT3 and RelA during pneumonia

Project description:A common response to physiological duress is the hepatic acute phase response, a process during which the expression of many genes is altered in the liver. Amongst these transcripts are those encoding acute phase proteins, defined as circulating proteins with significantly changed concentrations during an acute phase response. The goal of this study was to determine the influence of two transcription factors, STAT3 and NF-kappaB p65 (RelA), on hepatic gene changes including but not limited to acute phase proteins during bacterial pneumonia. Using the Cre-LoxP system, mice were generated with combined functional deletions of both STAT3 and RelA in hepatocytes. In mutant mice, Cre-recombinase was expressed under transcriptional control of an albumin promoter in the presence of homozygous floxed alleles for both STAT3 and RelA. Wild-type control mice lacked the Cre-recombinase transgene. Microarray analysis was performed on liver RNA collected from both genotypes of mice in the absence and presence of pneumococcal pneumonia. RNA from 4 separate groups of mice (3 mice per group) was analyzed: 1) Uninfected wild-type control mice; 2) Uninfected mutant mice lacking liver STAT3 and RelA; 3) Control mice infected intratracheally for 24h with 10^6 CFU of Streptococcus pneumoniae (serotype 3); and 4) Mutant mice infected intratracheally for 24h with 10^6 CFU of Streptococcus pneumoniae (serotype 3).

Opioid-induced gut microbial disruption leads to gut barrier compromise and sustained systemic inflammation.

Project description:Morphine and its pharmacological derivatives are the most prescribed analgesics for moderate to severe pain management. However, chronic use of morphine reduces pathogen clearance and induces bacterial translocation across the gut barrier. The enteric microbiome has been shown to play a critical role in the preservation of the mucosal barrier function and metabolic homeostasis. Here, we show for the first time, using bacterial 16s rDNA sequencing, that chronic morphine treatment significantly alters the gut microbial composition and induces preferential expansion of the gram-positive pathogenic and reduction of bile-deconjugating bacterial strains. A significant reduction in both primary and secondary bile acid levels was seen in the gut, but not in the liver with morphine treatment. Morphine induced microbial dysbiosis and gut barrier disruption was rescued by transplanting placebo-treated microbiota into morphine-treated animals, indicating that microbiome modulation could be exploited as a therapeutic strategy for patients using morphine for pain management. In this study, we establish a link between the two phenomena, namely gut barrier compromise and dysregulated bile acid metabolism. We show for the first time that morphine fosters significant gut microbial dysbiosis and disrupts cholesterol/bile acid metabolism. Changes in the gut microbial composition is strongly correlated to disruption in host inflammatory homeostasis13,14 and in many diseases (e.g. cancer/HIV infection), persistent inflammation is known to aid and promote the progression of the primary morbidity. We show here that chronic morphine, gut microbial dysbiosis, disruption of cholesterol/bile acid metabolism and gut inflammation; have a linear correlation. This opens up the prospect of devising minimally invasive adjunct treatment strategies involving microbiome and bile acid modulation and thus bringing down morphine-mediated inflammation in the host.

The STAT3-SETDB2 Axis Dictates NFκB-mediated Inflammation in Macrophages during Wound Repair

Project description:Macrophage transition from an inflammatory to reparative phenotype after tissue injury is controlled by epigenetic enzymes that regulate inflammatory gene expression. We have previously identified the histone methyltransferase, SETDB2, in macrophages drives tissue repair by repressing NFκB-mediated inflammation. Complementary ATAC and RNA sequencing of wound macrophages isolated from mice deficient in SETDB2 in myeloid cells revealed that SETDB2 suppresses the inflammatory gene program by inhibiting chromatin accessibility at NFkB-dependent gene promoters. We found that STAT3 was required for SETDB2 expression in macrophages yet, paradoxically, it also functioned as a binding partner of SETDB2 where it repressed SETDB2 activity by inhibiting its interaction with the NFKB component, RELA, leading to increased RELA/NFKB-mediated inflammatory gene expression. Further, RNA sequencing in wound macrophages from STAT3-deficient mice corroborated this and revealed STAT3 and SETDB2 transcriptionally co-regulate overlapping genes. Finally, in diabetic wound macrophages STAT3 expression and STAT3-SETDB2 binding were increased. As such, we identify what we believe to be a novel SETDB2-STAT3 axis that modulates macrophage phenotype during tissue repair and may be an important therapeutic target for nonhealing diabetic wounds.

Developmental LTbR synergistically activates TLR4 mediated inflammatory RelA/NF-kB response

Project description:Developmental signals are known to modulate inflammation. How ever, the mechanistic insight that links developmental and inflammatory signaling remains elusive. In the current study, we identifya critical role of NF-kB system in mediating stimulus specific crosstalk that allows developmental LTbR signals to sustain inflammatory TLR4 induced RelA/NF-kB response and gene expression. LTbR activated non-canonical signaling targets canonical TLR4 induced, nfkb2 encoded p100 not only to deplete inhibitory IkBd/(p100)2, but also to supplement RelA:p52/NF-kB dimers. Robust crosstalk in the gut epithelial cells are important, as crosstalk-defective nfkb2-/- mice succumbed to gut infection by Citrobacter rodentium due to hypo-inflammatory responses. Finally, we present evidence for a crosstalk motif that integrates tissue microenvironment derived developmental cues to ameliorate the pathogen response. Total RNA from WT early passage MEFs stimulated with ligands LPS, LTbR and LPS+LTbR for 24hrs were analyzed for global gene expression levels

SWATH-LC/MS/MS of the proteomic response in Campylobacter jejuni 81-176 to sublethal concentrations of seven different bile acids

Project description:To characterize the adaptation processes of C. jejuni to sublethal concentrations of bile acids, that are a crucial component of the intestinal antimicrobial defense, including cholic- , chenodeoxycholic-, taurocholic-, glycocholic-, deoxycholic-, lithocholic-, and ursodeoxycholic acid, we used proteome profiling by label-free mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS). The most toxic bile acids, deoxycholic- and chenodeoxycholic acid induced the most significant changes in protein expression. In detail we found a significant down-regulation of in principle all basic biosynthetic pathways and a general decrease of the transcription machinery. Concurrently, an induction of factors involved in detoxification of reactive oxygen species, protein folding, and bile acid exporting efflux pumps was detected. The metabolism was optimized in such a way that the more energy-efficient aerobic respiration pathway was increased, while the energy-inefficient anaerobic branches of the electron transport chain were down-regulated. Uptake of amino acids in order to catabolize them was also increased. These results show that C. jejuni has a well-built, differentiated system of adaptation to bile acids stress. The findings of this study will enhance the understanding of the biology on the interaction of C. jejuni with the human intestine, and may provide clues to future medical treatment and prevention of C. jejuni infections.

Frequent in-frame somatic deletions activate gp130 in inflammatory hepatocellular tumours

Project description:Inflammatory hepatocellular adenomas (IHCA) are benign liver tumours defined by the presence of inflammatory infiltrates and by the elevated expression of inflammatory proteins in tumour hepatocytes1,2. Here we show a striking activation of the IL6 signalling pathway in this tumour type, and sequencing candidate genes pinpointed this response to somatic gain-of-function mutations in the IL6ST gene that encodes the signalling co-receptor gp130. Indeed, ~70% of IHCA harbour small in-frame deletions that target the binding site of gp130 for IL6, and expression of the most frequent gp130 mutant, Delta-STVY190, in hepatocellular cells activates STAT3 in absence of ligand. Further, analysis of hepatocellular carcinomas revealed rare gp130 alterations always accompanied by ß-catenin-activating mutations, suggesting a cooperative effect of these signalling pathways in the malignant conversion of hepatocytes. The recurrent gain-of-function gp130 mutations in these human hepatocellular adenomas explains their inflammatory phenotype, and suggest that similar alterations may occur in other inflammatory epithelial tumours with STAT3 activation.
