Type III interferons induce pyroptosis in gut epithelial cells and impair tissue repair upon intestinal injury.

ABSTRACT: Tissue damage and repair are hallmarks of the inflammatory process. Despite a wealth of information on the mechanisms that govern tissue damage, mechanistic insight on how inflammatory mediators affect repair is lacking. Here, we investigated how interferons influence tissue repair after damage to the intestinal mucosa driven by inflammation or genotoxicity. We found that type III, but not type I or II, interferons delay epithelial cell regeneration by inducing the upregulation of Z-DNA-binding protein 1 (ZBP1). Z-nucleic acids formed during the damage and repair process are then sensed by ZBP-1, leading to Caspase-8 activation, and cleavage of Gasdermin C (GSDMC). Cleaved GSDMC drives epithelial cell death by pyroptosis and delays the re-epithelialization of the large or small intestine after colitis or irradiation, respectively. We also found that the type III interferon/ZBP1/Caspase-8/GSDMC pathway is activated in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Our findings highlight a molecular signaling cascade initiated by type III interferons that delays intestinal tissue repair, which has important implications for IBD patients or individuals exposed to radiation therapies.

Interferons disrupt lung epithelial repair during recovery from respiratory infection [RN200717]

Project description:Respiratory viral infections cause lung epithelial damage, barrier dysfunction and severe disease. Type I interferons (IFN-a/b) are antiviral cytokines whose therapeutic use is limited by well-characterized pleiotropic effects. Type III IFNs (IFN-λ) are less pro-inflammatory and regarded a superior treatment option. Here, we show that IFN signalling reduces lung epithelial proliferation and differentiation and increases epithelial apoptosis during recovery from viral infection. This delays epithelial repair, increasing disease severity and the risk of bacterial superinfection. IFN-a has least effects, with IFN-b intermediate and IFN-λ strongest action.

ZBP1 and TRIF trigger lethal necroptosis in mice lacking caspase-8 and TNFR1

Project description:Necroptosis is a lytic form of cell death that is mediated by the kinase RIPK3 and the pseudokinase MLKL when caspase-8 is inhibited downstream of death receptors, toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), TLR4, and the intracellular Z-form nucleic acid sensor ZBP1. Oligomerization and activation of RIPK3 is driven by interactions with the kinase RIPK1, the TLR adaptor TRIF, or ZBP1. In this study, we use immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (ISH) assays to generate a tissue atlas characterizing RIPK1, RIPK3, Mlkl, and ZBP1 expression in mouse tissues. RIPK1, RIPK3, and Mlkl were co-expressed in most immune cell populations, endothelial cells, and many mucosal epithelia. ZBP1 was expressed in many immune populations, but had more variable expression in epithelia compared to RIPK1, RIPK3, and Mlkl. Intriguingly, expression of ZBP1 was elevated in Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- embryos prior to their succumbing to aberrant necroptosis around embryonic day 15. ZBP1 contributed to this embryonic lethality because rare Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- Zbp1-/- mice survived until after birth. Necroptosis mediated by TRIF contributed to the demise of Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- Zbp1-/- pups in the perinatal period. Of note, Casp8-/- Tnfr1-/- Trif-/- Zbp1-/- mice exhibited autoinflammation and morbidity, typically within 5-7 weeks of being born, which is not seen in Casp8-/- Ripk1-/- Trif-/- Zbp1-/-, Casp8-/- Ripk3-/-, or Casp8-/- Mlkl-/- mice. Therefore, after birth, loss of caspase-8 probably unleashes RIPK1-dependent necroptosis driven by death receptors other than TNFR1.

ADAR1 mutation causes ZBP1-dependent immunopathology II

Project description:The RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 is essential for suppression of innate immune activation and pathology caused by aberrant recognition of self-RNA, a role it carries out by disrupting the duplex structure of endogenous double-stranded RNA species. A point mutation in the Z-nucleic-acid binding domain (ZBD) of ADAR1 is associated with severe autoinflammatory disease. ZBP1 is the only other ZBD-containing mammalian protein and its activation can trigger both cell death and transcriptional responses via the kinases RIPK1 and RIPK3, and the protease caspase-8. Here, we show that the pathology caused by ADAR1 ZBD mutation is driven by activation of ZBP1. We found that ablation of ZBP1 fully rescued the overt pathology caused by ADAR1 mutation, without reversing the underlying inflammatory program caused by this mutation. While loss of RIPK3 partially phenocopied the protective effects of ZBP1 ablation, combined deletion of caspase-8 and RIPK3, or of caspase-8 and MLKL, unexpectedly exacerbated the pathogenic effects of ADAR1 mutation. These findings indicate that ADAR1 is a negative regulator of sterile ZBP1 activation, and that ZBP1-dependent signaling underlies the autoinflammatory pathology caused by mutation of ADAR1.

ZBP1-MLKL-dependent Necroptosis Triggers STING-mediated Cytosolic DNA Sensing and Promotes Antitumor Immunity of Radiation

Project description:Ionizing radiation promotes cytosolic DNA sensing and consequent antitumor immune responses. But how tumor cell-intrinsic cytosolic DNA sensing is initiated by radiation remains poorly defined. Here, we demonstrated that STING-mediated type I interferon production in tumor cells after radiation relied on the engagement of MLKL-mediated necroptosis, which was elicited by the ZBP1-RIPK3 signaling axis. Physiologically, tumor cell-intrinsic ZBP1-MLKL cascade augmented antitumor immune responses after radiation largely by regulating STING signaling. Mechanistically, ZBP1-MLKL-dependent necroptosis maintained the enrichment of mitochondria DNA inside the cytosol of tumor cells after radiation in a cell-density dependent fashion, contributing to type I interferon responses. In contrast, ablation of caspase-8 unleashed ZBP1-MLKL cascade to gain enhanced cytosolic DNA sensing, and in turn potentiated therapeutic effects of radiation. Thus, our findings uncover an unanticipated mechanism that ZBP1-MLKL-dependent necroptosis drives cytosolic DNA sensing-mediated antitumor immunity after radiation, and provide new strategy to improve radiotherapy by inhibiting caspase-8 cascade.

Caspase-8 and FADD prevent spontaneous ZBP1 expression and necroptosis

Project description:Caspase-8 and FADD play key roles in the regulation of cell death by necroptosis. The absence of either protein results in early embryonic lethality due to the activation of the kinase RIPK3 and its phosphorylation of the necroptosis executioner, MLKL. We genetically engineered and characterized a mouse model to monitor MLKL phosphorylation in the absence of necroptosis in vivo. Ablation of caspase-8 or FADD resulted in the transcriptional upregulation in several tissues of ZBP1, a cytosolic nucleic acid sensor capable of activating RIPK3, and ZBP1 was required for spontaneous phosphorylation of MLKL. Our findings provide a novel mechanism by which the FADD-Caspase-8 complex prevents necroptosis.
