Nasal cavity epithelial cells exhibit antiviral transcriptional signatures upon activation of IFN-gamma producing antigen-specific T cells

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the differential impact of IFN-gamma secretion on nasal cavity epithelial cells, we compared the transcriptional profiles of nasal cavity epithelial cells (CD45-, CD3- CD11b-, CD31-, CD326+) from wildtype and IFN-gamma knockout mice at 30 days (d30) post intranasal infection with a live attenuated influenza virus expressing the immunodominant H-2Kd CD8 T cell epitope from Sendai virus nucleoprotein (LAIV-SenNP). Nasal cavity epithelial cells were also analyzed from LAIV-SenNP immunized wildtype and IFN-gamma knockout mice 3 days after intranasal administration of Sendai virus nucleoprotein peptide (d30+3). The results indicate that nasal cavity epithelial cells express genes associated with antigen presentation and antiviral function following antigen-specific T cell activation, and these alterations in transcriptional programming depend on IFN-gamma secretion.

Project description:Streptococcus pyogenes is a major causative agent of tonsillitis or pharyngitis in children, which can lead to more invasive infections and noninfectious sequellae. S. pyogenes can persist in tonsils, while one-third of children treated with antibiotics continue to shed streptococci and have recurrent infections. Mouse nasal-associated lymphoid tissue (NALT) is functionally analogous to human oropharangeal lymphoid tissues. The innate immune responses of naïve cells from a mucosal site to S. pyogenes is not well described; therefore, we infected C57BL/6 mice intranasally with 108 CFU S. pyogenes. Transcriptional responses by NALT after S. pyogenes infection were analyzed by Affymetrix microarray and quantitative RT-PCR. Wild-type S. pyogenes induces transcription of both type I and IFN-gamma-responsive genes, pro-inflammatory genes, and acute phase response plasma proteins within 24h after infection. Invasion of NALT and the induction of the interferon response were not dependent on expression of anti-phagocytic M1 protein. However, infection with an attenuated, less invasive mutant indicated that a robust innate response by NALT is significantly influenced by intra-NALT bacterial load. Granulocytic populations of NALT, cervical lymph nodes and spleen were discriminated by characteristic surface and intracellular markers. Intranasal infection induces systemic release of neutrophils and a substantial influx of neutrophils into NALT at 24h, which decline by 48h after infection. Macrophages do not significantly increase in S. pyogenes-infected NALT. Intranasal infection of IFN-gamma -/- (GKO) C57BL/6 mice did not lead to systemic dissemination of wild type S. pyogenes, despite reduced expression of IFN-gamma-responsive mRNAs in NALT. Infected GKO mice had an unregulated influx of neutrophils into NALT compared to immunocompetant mice and mice treated with an anti-IFN-gamma antibody more rapidly cleared S. pyogenes from NALT. Thus, IFN-gamma-induced responses have a suppressive influence on early clearance of this pathogen from NALT. Keywords: disease state analysis

Experiment Overall Design: C57BL/6 mice (6-10 weeks old), 4 per group, were infected intranasally with log-phase Streptococcus pyogenes, 2 to 4 x 10^8 CFU per 15 Âµl of pyrogen-free PBS. Sham-infected mice were administered 15 Âµl of the same PBS. Mice were infected with wild type strain 90-226 (Cue 1998), a 90-226 strain containing an in-frame deletion of M1 protein (90-226 delta emm1) (Zimmerlein 2005) or an attenuated 90-226 which lacks both M1 and SCPA proteins (90-226att). NALT was collected from mice at 24h after infection and stored in RNAlater until RNA could be purified).

Project description:Nasal cavity is the main gateway for pathogen infection although it composed of many layers of defending barriers. Pathogens strongly willing to enter and infect from nasal cavity with the dominant form aerosol or respiratory droplets. However, the underlying mechanism of virus nasal infection and transmission are still unknown. Hence, a better understanding of this mechanism may provide insight into the pathogenesis of virus. In this study, IBDV was select as a model virus to study nasal infection and transmission for it could infect chicken from head (nasal) to tail (basal) and lead to massive destruction of bursal IgM+ B-lymphocytes. Initially, we found IBDV mostly entered and infected the interior of chicken’s nasal, where full of lymphoid tissue and easily for virus to transfer into blood. After passing nasal barriers, IBDV was subsequently transmit into blood and infected PBMCs. Following blood circulates, IBDV then infected bursal and hugely destroyed B-lymphocytes. However, the mechanism of how IBDV influenced the bursal cells, especially how virus destroyed B-lymphocytes were still unclear. With the help of single cells RNA sequence, we identified five vigorous clusters, including three immune cells types (B-cells: 64.70%, dendritic cells: 3.32% and T-cells: 6.33%) and two non-immune cell types (epithelial cells: 23.86% and fibroblast cells: 1.80% cells). Further analyses found that B-cells population were serious damaged, especially IgM+ B cells. However, the IgA+ B cells population hugely increased after IBDV infection. Interesting, we first demonstrated that basal cells and other non-immune cells in Bursa of Fabricius (BF) were the main target for IBDV infection and replication. Together, our study not only comprehensive elaborated the airborne IBDV and its transmission via intranasal route into the BF, but also explained its distribution in different immune and nonimmune cells and immunoglobulins rearrangement after immunosuppressive disorder on an age dependent infected organ.
