A type 1 immune-stromal cell network mediates disease tolerance and barrier protection against intestinal infection

ABSTRACT: Type 1 immunity mediates host defense through pathogen elimination, but whether this pathway also impacts tissue function is unknown. Here we demonstrate that rapid induction of IFNγ signaling coordinates a multi-cellular response that is critical to limit tissue damage and maintain gut motility following infection of mice with a tissue-invasive helminth. IFNγ production is initiated by antigen-independent activation of lamina propria CD8+ T cells following MyD88-dependent recognition of the microbiota during helminth-induced barrier invasion. IFNγ acted directly on intestinal stromal cells to recruit neutrophils that limited parasite-induced tissue injury. IFNγ sensing also limited the expansion of smooth muscle actin-expressing cells to prevent pathological gut dysmotility. Importantly, this tissue-protective response had limited impact on parasite burden, indicating that IFNγ supports a disease tolerance defense strategy. Our results have important implications for managing the pathophysiological sequelae of post-infectious gut dysfunction and chronic inflammatory diseases associated with stromal remodelling.

Transcriptome of Chat positive and negative ILC2s

Project description:Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) reside in multiple tissues including lymphoid organs and barrier surfaces, and secrete type 2 cytokines including interleukin (IL)-5, IL-9 and IL-13. These cells participate in multiple physiological processes including allergic inflammation, tissue repair, metabolic homeostasis and host defense against helminth infections. Recent studies indicate that neuropeptides can play an important role in regulating ILC2 responses, however, the mechanisms that underlie these processes in vivo remain incompletely defined. Here, we identify that activated ILC2s upregulate choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)—the enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of acetylcholine (ACh)—following infection with the helminth parasite Nippostrongylus brasiliensis or treatment with alarmins or cytokines including IL-25, IL-33 and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP). ILC2s also express acetylcholine receptors (AChRs), and ACh administration promotes ILC2 cytokine production and elicits expulsion of helminth infection. In accordance with this, ChAT deficiency in ILC2s leads to defective ILC2 responses and impaired immunity against helminth infection. Together, these results reveal a previously unrecognized role of the ChAT-ACh pathway in promoting type 2 innate immunity to helminth infection.

Enteric pathogens induce tissue tolerance and prevent neuronal loss from subsequent infections

Project description:The enteric nervous system (ENS) controls several intestinal functions including motility and nutrient handling, which can be disrupted by infection-induced neuropathies or neuronal cell death. We investigated possible tolerance mechanisms preventing neuronal loss and disruption in gut motility after pathogen exposure. We found that following enteric infections, muscularis macrophages (MMs) acquire a tissue-protective phenotype that prevents neuronal loss and dysmotility during subsequent challenge with unrelated pathogens. Bacteria-induced neuroprotection relied on activation of gut-projecting sympathetic neurons and signaling via b2-adrenergic receptors (b2AR) on MMs. In contrast, helminth-mediated neuroprotection was dependent on T cells and systemic production of interleukin (IL)-4 and -13 by eosinophils, which induced arginase-expressing MMs that prevented neuronal loss from an unrelated infection located in a different intestinal region. Collectively, these data suggest that distinct enteric pathogens trigger a state of disease- or tissue tolerance that preserves ENS number and functionality.

miRNA sequencing profile of colonic mucosa in global mir-10b KO and WT mice

Project description:Background/ Aim: Diabetes has substantive co-occurrence with disorders of gut-brain interactions (DGBIs). The pathophysiological and molecular mechanisms linking diabetes and DGBIs are unclear. miRNAs are key regulators of diabetes and gut dysmotility. We investigated whether impaired gut barrier function regulated by a key miRNA, miR-10b-5p, links diabetes and gut dysmotility. Methods: We created a new mouse line using the Mb3Cas12a/Mb3Cpf1 endonuclease to knock out mir-10b globally. Loss of function studies were conducted to characterize diabetes, gut dysmotility, and gut barrier dysfunction phenotypes in these mice. Gain of function studies were conducted by injecting these mice with a miR-10b-5p mimic. Further, we performed miRNA-sequencing analysis from colonic mucosa from mir-10b KO, WT, and miR-10b-5p mimic injected mice to confirm 1) deficiency of miR-10b-5p in KO mice, and 2) restoration of miR-10b-5p expression after the mimic injection. Results: Congenital loss of mir-10b in mice led to the development of hyperglycemia, gut dysmotility, and gut barrier dysfunction. We found increased gut permeability and reduced expression of the tight junction protein Zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), in the colon of mir-10b KO mice. We further confirmed that patients with diabetes or IBS-C, a known DGBI that is linked to leaky gut, had significantly reduced miR-10b-5p expression. Injection of a miR-10b-5p mimic in mir-10b KO mice rescued these molecular alterations and phenotypes. Conclusion: Our study uncovered a potential pathophysiologic mechanism of gut barrier dysfunction that links both the diabetes and gut dysmotility phenotypes in mice lacking miR-10b-5p. Treatment with a miR-10b-5p mimic reversed the leaky gut, diabetic, and gut dysmotility phenotypes, highlighting the translational potential of miR-10b-5p mimic.

Epithelial-Cell-Derived Phospholipase A2 Group 1B Is an Endogenous Anthelmintic

Project description:Immunity to intestinal helminth infections has been well studied, but the mechanism of helminth killing prior to expulsion remains unclear. Here we identify epithelial-cell-derived phospholipase A2 group 1B (PLA2g1B) as a host-derived endogenous anthelmintic. PLA2g1B is elevated in resistant mice and is responsible for killing tissue-embedded larvae. Despite comparable activities of other essential type-2-dependent immune mechanisms, Pla2g1b-/- mice failed to expel the intestinal helminths Heligmosomoides polygyrus or Nippostrongylus brasiliensis. Expression of Pla2g1b by epithelial cells was dependent upon intestinal microbiota, adaptive immunity, and common-gamma chain-dependent signaling. Notably, Pla2g1b was downregulated in susceptible mice and inhibited by IL-4R-signaling in vitro, uncoupling parasite killing from expulsion mechanisms. Resistance was restored in Pla2g1b-/- mice by treating infective H. polygyrus L3 larvae with PLA2g1B, which reduced larval phospholipid abundance. These findings uncover epithelial-cell-derived Pla2g1b as an essential mediator of helminth killing, highlighting a previously overlooked mechanism of anti-helminth immunity.

Macrophage function in tissue repair and remodeling requires IL-4/IL-13 with apoptotic cells [Run2]

Project description:Tissue repair is a subset of a broad repertoire of IL-4/IL-13-dependent host responses during helminth infections. Here, we show that IL-4/IL-13 alone were not sufficient, but IL-4/IL-13 together with apoptotic cells induced the tissue repair program in macrophages. Genetic ablation of sensors of apoptotic cells impaired the proliferation of tissue-resident macrophages and induction of anti-inflammatory/tissue repair genes in the lung following helminth infection or the damage caused by induction of colitis in the gut. In contrast, recognition of apoptotic cells was dispensable for cytokine-dependent induction of pattern recognition receptor, cell adhesion or chemotaxis genes in macrophages. Detection of apoptotic cells can therefore spatially compartmentalize or prevent premature or ectopic activity of pleiotropic, soluble cytokines, such as IL-4/IL-13.

Dataset in support of Exploration of extracellular vesicles from Ascaris suum provides evidence of parasite-host cross talk

Project description:The highly prevalent gut helminth, Ascaris suum, compromise pigs health and reduce farm productivity worldwide. The closely related human parasite, A. lumbricoides, infects more than 800 million people and causes approximately 1.31 million disability-adjusted life years. The humaninfections are often chronic by nature and the parasites have a profound ability to modulate their hosts immune responses. This study provides the first in-depth characterization of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from different developmental stages and body parts of A. suum and their potential role in the host-parasite interplay. The release of EVs during the third larval stage (L3), L4 and adults was demonstrated by Transmission Electron Microscopy, and the uptake of EVs from adult A. suum in intestinal epithelial cells followed by accumulation of RNA in the nucleus by confocal microscopy. Next Generation Sequencing of EV-derived mi/m?RNA identified a number of micro(mi)RNAs from the different A. suum life stages and body parts and potential transcripts of potential host immune targets, such as IL-13, IL-25 and IL-33, were identified. Proteomics of EVs identified several proteins with immunomodulatory properties and other proteins previously shown to be associated with parasite EVs. Furthermore, EVs from A. suum body fluid stimulated the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α in dendritic cells in vitro. Taken together, these results suggest that A. suum EVs and their cargo may play a role in host-parasite interactions. This knowledge may pave the way for novel strategies for helminth infection control and knowledge of their immune modulatory role.
