Membrane Vesicles of a Bacterial Mutualist Mediate Immune Regulation via Dendritic Cells

ABSTRACT: Microbial molecules have evolved to promote transient and/or permanent associations with mammals. Although numerous examples of secretion systems employed by pathogens have been described, mechanisms by which commensal bacteria export molecules during symbiosis remain unknown. The human gut mutualist Bacteroides fragilis produces a capsular polysaccharide (PSA) that directs host immune development. We reveal herein that outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) deliver PSA to dendritic cells (DCs), promoting regulatory T cells and inducing anti-inflammatory cytokines during protection from intestinal disease. In addition, we found that TLR2 signaling by DCs is required for OMV sensing. Following internalization into DCs and engagement of TLR2, OMVs initiate a gene expression program that results in IL-10 production by DCs. Although it is known that the outcome of PSA sensing by the immune system is Treg induction, nothing is known about the intracellular signaling pathway(s) activated by PSA within DCs. We analyzed the gene expression profile of DCs treated with OMVs to uncover factors that are expressed in a PSA-dependent, TLR2-dependent manner. Our findings demonstrate DC-induced protection from disease via OMV-delivery of a beneficial microbial molecule, uncovering a novel paradigm for inter-kingdom communication between the microbiota and mammals.

Our findings demonstrate DC-induced protection from disease via OMV-delivery of a beneficial microbial molecule, uncovering a novel paradigm for inter-kingdom communication between the microbiota and mammals. RNA samples (1ug total RNA) from BMDCs were labeled with fluorescent dyes using the Quick Amp Labeling Kit (Agilent). Microarray (AgilentWhole Mouse Genome chip) hybridizations (65M-BM-0C for 16 hours) and washes were performed with Agilent reagents following standard protocols. Microarrays were analyzed using an Agilent DNA Microarray Scanner G2565CA, and data were acquired using Agilent's Feature Extraction Software version 10.1.1.1. Significant genes were selected based on p< 0.01 and fold change >2.0.

Profiling IgG and IgA antibody responses during vaccination and infection in a population at high risk of gonorrhoea

Project description:Development of a vaccine against gonorrhoea is a global priority, driven by the rise in antibiotic resistance and the need to protect against infection and reproductive health consequences. Although Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Ng) infection does not induce substantial protective immunity, there is evidence that highly exposed individuals may develop immunity against re-infection with the same strain. In contrast, retrospective epidemiological studies have shown that immunisation with vaccines containing Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) provides a degree of cross-protection against Ng infection. To examine this phenomenon, we conducted a clinical trial of 4CMenB (Bexsero®, GSK), a licensed vaccine against Nm that contains OMVs and recombinant antigens, with 50 adults in coastal Kenya who have high exposure to Ng. The study comprised a single arm open label study of two doses of Bexsero; humoral and cellular immune responses were measured at three time points over six months. Using a dedicated microarray of Ng antigens, we show that serum IgG and IgA reactivities against the gonococcal homologs of the recombinant antigens in the vaccine peaked at 10 weeks but had declined by 24 weeks. The reverse was the case for most antigens originating from the OMV component. A cohort of similar individuals with laboratory-confirmed gonococcal infection were compared before, during, and after infection: their reactivities were weaker and differed from the vaccinated cohort. We conclude that the cross-protection of the 4CMenB vaccine against gonorrhoea could be explained by cross-reaction against a diverse selection of antigens derived from the OMV component.

Proteomic analysis of outer membrane vesicle isolation methods with an Escherichia coli tolA mutant using LC MSMS

Project description:Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) produced by Gram-negative bacteria are mediators of cell survival and pathogenesis by facilitating nutrient transport, virulence factor dissemination, and resistance to antimicrobials. Studies of OMV properties often focus on hypervesiculating Escherichia coli mutants that have increased OMV production when compared to their corresponding wild-type (WT) strains. Currently, two conventional techniques, ultracentrifugation (UC) and ultradiafiltration (UF), are used interchangeably to isolate OMVs, however, there is concern that each technique may inadvertently alter the properties of isolated OMVs during study. To address this concern, we compared two OMV isolation methods, UC and UF, with respect to final OMV quantities, size distributions, and morphologies using a hypervesiculating Escherichia coli K-12 ∆tolA mutant. Cryo-transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM) visualization of isolated OMVs revealed distinct morphological differences between wild-type and ∆tolA OMVs, where ∆tolA OMVs isolated by either UC or UF method possessed a greater proportion of OMVs with two or more membranes (39.6-42.4%). Proteomic OMV analysis of WT and ∆tolA OMVs confirmed that ∆tolA enhances inner plasma membrane carryover in multi-lamellar OMVs. This study demonstrates that UC and UF are useful techniques for OMV isolation, where UF may be preferable due to faster isolation, higher OMV yields and enrichment of smaller sized vesicles.

Mitochondrial dysfunction caused by bacterial outer membranes vesicles activates intrinsic apoptosis and inflammation

Project description:Sensing of microbes activates the immune system, depending on functional mitochondria. However, pathogenic bacteria inhibit mitochondria activity by delivering toxins via outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). How innate immune cells respond to pathogenic microbes that target mitochondria remains unclear. Here, we show that macrophages induce mitochondrial apoptosis and the NLRP3 inflammasome in response OMVs. Macrophages treated with OMVs and toxins that cause mitochondria dysfunction cease host protein translation which depletes pro-survival BCL-2 family member, MCL-1, and induces BAK-dependent mitochondrial apoptosis. Mitochondrial apoptosis and potassium ion efflux activate the NLRP3 inflammasome after OMV exposure. Importantly, mitochondrial apoptosis modulates IL-1 serum levels in response to OMVs. Our data highlight how innate immune cells sense infections by monitoring mitochondrial health.

Surface exposure and packing of lipoproteins into Outer Membrane Vesicles are coupled processes in Bacteroides.

Project description:Outer membrane vesicles (OMV) are spherical structures derived from the outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria. OMVs from the predominant gut microbiota members, Bacteroides, are proposed to play key roles in gut homeostasis. OMV biogenesis in Bacteroides is a poorly understood process. Here, we revisited the protein composition of B. theta OMVs by mass spectrometry. We confirmed that OMVs produced by this organism contain large quantities of glycosidases and proteases, with most of them being lipoproteins. We found that many of these OMV-enriched lipoproteins are encoded by polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs), such as the sus operon. We examined the subcellular localization of the components of the sus operon and found that the alpha-amylase SusG is highly enriched in OMVs while the oligosaccharide importer SusC remains mostly in the OM. We show that all OMV-enriched lipoproteins possess a lipoprotein export sequence (LES) that mediates translocation of SusG from the periplasmic face of the OM towards the extracellular milieu and is required for SusG to localize preferentially to OMVs. We also show that surface-exposed SusG in OMVs is active and can rescue growth of bacterial cells incapable of growing on starch as only carbon source. Our results support the role of OMVs as "public goods" that can be utilized by other organisms with different metabolic capabilities.

Gene expression profile of human mono-derived DCs stimulated with the bacterial lysate OM-85

Project description:OM-85 is a bacterial lysate used in clinical practice to reduce duration and frequency of recurrent respiratory tract infections. Whereas knowledge on its regulatory effects in vivo has substantially advanced, the mechanisms of OM-85 sensing remain inadequately addressed.The purpose of this study was to investigate the transptomic profile of human mo-DCs after ex vivo stimulation with OM-85 at determine to what extent OM-85-induced gene signature in different myeloid cell subsets is dependent on TLR2/TLR4 expression. We also aimed to compare the OM-85-triggered gene signature with the signatures induced by specific TLR2 or TLR4 agonists.

o Differential temporal release and lipoprotein loading in B. thetaiotaomicron bacterial extracellular vesicles

Project description:o Bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) contribute to stress responses, quorum sensing, biofilm formation, and interspecies and interkingdom communication. However, the factors that regulate their release and heterogeneity are not well understood. We set out to investigate these factors in the common gut commensal Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron by studying BEV release throughout their growth cycle. Utilising a range of methods, we demonstrate that vesicles released at different stages of growth have significantly different composition, with early vesicles enriched in specifically released outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) containing a larger proportion of lipoproteins, while late phase BEVs primarily contain lytic vesicles with enrichment of cytoplasmic proteins. Furthermore, we demonstrate that lipoproteins containing a negatively charged signal peptide are preferentially incorporated in OMVs. We use this observation to predict all Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron OMV enriched lipoproteins and analyse their function. Overall, our findings highlight the need to understand media composition and BEV release dynamics prior to functional characterisation and define the theoretical functional capacity of Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron OMVs.

production, composition, and proteomes of Helicobacter pylori outer membrane vesicles

Project description:OMVs were isolated from H. pylori grown during pH 5.3 conditions with the addition of urea to supplement bacterial growth, or during pH 7.2 conditions with or without the addition of urea. Growth of H. pylori during acidic conditions reduced the quantity and size of OMVs produced. Additionally, acidic growth conditions resulted in the production of OMVs with increased packaging of protein, DNA, and RNA compared to OMVs produced during neutral growth conditions. A global data-independent acquisition proteomic analysis comparing the proteomes of OMVs to their parent bacteria demonstrated significant differences in the enrichment of proteins within bacteria and OMVs, supporting that differing conditions of growth impacts OMV composition. We also identified select and marginal differences in the enrichment of proteins within OMVs produced during different pH growth conditions. Overall, our findings reveal that growth of H. pylori during altered pH growth conditions is a factor that determines OMV proteomes, which may affect their subsequent functions in the host.

Outer membrane vesicle and outer membrane of Haemophilus influenzae Rd KW20, Rd ∆yrbE and Rd ∆vacJ

Project description:Bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) have important biological roles in pathogenesis and intercellular interactions, but a general mechanism of OMV formation is lacking. Here we show that the VacJ/Yrb ABC transport system, a proposed phospholipid (PL) transporter, is involved in OMV formation. Deletion or repression of VacJ/Yrb increases OMV production in two distantly related Gram-negative bacteria, Haemophilus influenzae and Vibrio cholerae. Within our studies we also analyzed the proteome of the OMV and outer membrane (OM) and found no massive alteration in Haemophilus influenzae Rd KW20, Rd ∆yrbE and Rd ∆vacJ. Lipidome analyses demonstrate that OMVs from VacJ/Yrb-defective mutants in H. influenzae are enriched in PLs and certain fatty acids. Furthermore, we demonstrate that OMV production and regulation of the VacJ/Yrb ABC transport system respond to iron starvation. Our results suggest a new general mechanism of OMV biogenesis based on PL accumulation in the outer leaflet of the outer membrane. This mechanism is highly conserved among Gram-negative bacteria, provides a means for regulation, can account for OMV formation under all growth conditions, and might have important pathophysiological roles in vivo.
