Project description:Neutrophil trafficking to sites of inflammation is essential for the defense against bacterial and fungal infections, but also contributes to tissue damage in TH17-mediated autoimmunity. This process is regulated by chemokines, which often show an overlapping expression pattern and function in pathogen- and autoimmune-induced inflammatory reactions. Using a murine model of crescentic GN, we show that the pathogenic TH17/IL-17 immune response induces chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 5 (CXCL5) expression in kidney tubular cells, which recruits destructive neutrophils that contribute to renal tissue injury. By contrast, CXCL5 was dispensable for neutrophil recruitment and effective bacterial clearance in a murine model of acute bacterial pyelonephritis. In line with these findings, CXCL5 expression was highly upregulated in the kidneys of patients with ANCA-associated crescentic GN as opposed to patients with acute bacterial pyelonephritis. Our data therefore identify CXCL5 as a potential therapeutic target for the restriction of pathogenic neutrophil infiltration in TH17-mediated autoimmune diseases while leaving intact the neutrophil function in protective immunity against invading pathogens.

Project description:In view of emerging drug-resistant tuberculosis, host directed therapies are urgently needed to improve treatment outcomes with currently available anti-tuberculosis therapies. One option is to interfere with the formation of lipid-laden “foamy” macrophages in the infected host. Here, we provide evidence that WNT6, a member of the evolutionary conserved WNT signaling pathway, promotes foam cell formation by regulating key lipid metabolic genes including acetyl-CoA carboxylase-2 (ACC2) during pulmonary TB. In addition, we demonstrate that Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) facilitates its intracellular growth and dissemination in the host by exploiting the WNT6-ACC2 pathway. Using genetic and pharmacological approaches, we show that lack of functional WNT6 or ACC2 significantly reduces intracellular TAG levels, Mtb growth and necrotic cell death of macrophages. In combination with the anti-TB drug isoniazid, pharmacological inhibition of ACC2 improved anti-mycobacterial treatment in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, we propose the WNT6-ACC2 signaling pathway as a promising target for a host-directed therapy to reduce intracellular replication of Mtb by modulating neutral lipid metabolism.

Project description:Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β suppresses early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development but triggers pro-oncogenic abilities at later stages. Recent data suggest that the receptor tyrosine kinase Axl causes a TGF-β switch toward dedifferentiation and invasion of HCC cells. Here, we analyzed two human cellular HCC models with opposing phenotypes in response to TGF-β. Both HCC models showed reduced proliferation and clonogenic growth behavior following TGF-β stimulation, although they exhibited differences in chemosensitivity and migratory abilities, suggesting that HCC cells evade traits of anti-oncogenic TGF-β. Transcriptome profiling revealed differential regulation of the chemokine CXCL5, which positively correlated with TGF-β expression in HCC patients. The expression and secretion of CXCL5 was dependent on Axl expression, suggesting that CXCL5 is a TGF-β target gene collaborating with Axl signaling. Loss of either TGF-β or Axl signaling abrogated CXCL5-dependent attraction of neutrophils. In mice, tumor formation of transplanted HCC cells relied on CXCL5 expression. In HCC patients, high levels of Axl and CXCL5 correlated with advanced tumor stages, recruitment of neutrophils into HCC tissue, and reduced survival. Conclusion: The synergy of TGF-β and Axl induces CXCL5 secretion, causing the infiltration of neutrophils into HCC tissue. Intervention with TGF-β/Axl/CXCL5 signaling may be an effective therapeutic strategy to combat HCC progression in TGF-β-positive patients.

Project description:Staphylococcus aureus is the principal causative agent of osteomyelitis, a serious bacterial infection of bone that is associated with progressive inflammatory damage. Bone-forming osteoblasts have increasingly been recognized to play an important role in the initiation and progression of detrimental inflammation at sites of infection, and have been demonstrated to release an array of inflammatory mediators and factors that promote osteoclastogenesis and leukocyte recruitment following bacterial challenge. In the present study, we describe elevated bone tissue levels of the potent neutrophil-attracting chemokines, CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL5, CCL3, and CCL7, in a murine model of post-traumatic staphylococcal osteomyelitis. RNA-Seq gene ontology analysis of isolated primary murine osteoblasts showed enrichment in differentially expressed genes involved in cell migration and chemokine receptor binding and chemokine activity following S. aureus infection, and a rapid increase in the expression of mRNA encoding CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL5, CCL3, and CCL7, in these cells. Importantly, we have confirmed that such upregulated gene expression results in protein production with the demonstration that S. aureus challenge elicits the rapid and robust release of these chemokines by osteoblasts and does so in a bacterial dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, we have confirmed the ability of soluble osteoblast-derived chemoattractants to elicit the migration of a neutrophil-like cell line. As such, these studies demonstrate the robust production of CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL5, CCL3, and CCL7, by osteoblasts in response to S. aureus infection, and the release of such neutrophil-attracting chemokines provides an additional mechanism by which osteoblasts could drive the inflammatory bone loss associated with staphylococcal osteomyelitis.
