Microbiota modulate transcription in the intestinal epithelium without remodeling the accessible chromatin landscape

ABSTRACT: We profiled transcriptome and accessible chromatin landscapes in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) from mice reared in the presence or absence of microbiota. We show that regional differences in gene transcription along the intestinal tract were accompanied by major alterations in chromatin organization. Surprisingly, we discovered that microbiota modify host gene transcription in IECs without significantly impacting the accessible chromatin landscape. Instead, microbiota regulation of host gene transcription might be achieved by differential expression of specific TFs and enrichment of their binding sites in nucleosome depleted CRRs near target genes. Our results suggest that the chromatin landscape in IECs is pre-programmed by the host in a region-specific manner to permit responses to microbiota through binding of open CRRs by specific TFs.

Genomic dissection of conserved transcriptional regulation in intestinal epithelial cells [human]

Project description:We profiled genome-wide accesssible chromatin data and RNA-seq from four species (zebrafish, stickleback, mouse, and human) to identify commonly regulated genes and regulatory metods in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). We identify a group genes that are commonly expressed in IECs and genes that are commonly expressed along the length of the intestine in fish and mammals. Using accessible chromatin data we identified enriched transcription factor binding site motifs In IECs and sites that are commonly accessible in IECs in all species. Finally, we confirm the ability for these regions from multiple species to drive conserved expression in IECs using a zebrafish reporter assay.

A Pathobiont of the Microbiota Balances Host Colonization and Intestinal Inflammation

Project description:The mammalian gastrointestinal tract harbors a diverse microbiota residing in intimate contact with the host immune system. Though most associations are symbiotic or commensal, some resident bacteria (termed pathobionts) have the potential to induce disease in immunocompromised hosts. Type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) have recently emerged as a novel mechanism for forging microbial-host interactions during infection. We reveal here a unique protective role for the T6SS of Helicobacter hepaticus, a Gram-negative bacterium of the murine intestinal microbiota. The T6SS of H. hepaticus targets effector substrates to intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). Mutants in T6SSs display higher intracellular and cell-associated numbers upon incubation with IECs, and exhibit increased bacterial colonization of the gastrointestinal tract compared to wild-type bacteria. The T6SS accordingly directs an anti-inflammatory gene expression profile in IECs co-cultured with H. hepaticus. Remarkably, T6SS mutants induce an exacerbated pro-inflammatory response in an experimental model of colitis. CD4+ T cells isolated from T6SS mutant-colonized animals produce increased T-helper 17 (Th17) cytokines in response to IECs presenting H. hepaticus antigens. These data demonstrate that H. hepaticus intimately interacts with IECs and employs type VI secretion to establish a balanced host relationship by limiting microbial colonization and intestinal inflammation. We propose that altering host-bacterial equilibriums that lead to dysbiosis of the microbiota contributes to human disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease and colon cancer.

Microbiota regulate intestinal epithelial gene expression by suppressing the transcription factor Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (Mouse ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, and DNase-seq)

Project description:We profiled transcriptome and chromatin landscapes in jejunal mouse intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) from mice reared in the absence (Germ Free or GF) or presence (Conventionalized or CV) of microbiota. We show that microbiota colonization results in changes in histone modifications at hundreds of enhancers that are associated with microbiota-regulated genes. Furthermore, we show that microbiota colonization is associated with a drastic genome-wide reduction in Hnf4a and Hnf4g binding.

The intestinal microbiota programs DNA methylation to control tissue homeostasis and inflammation [RNA-seq]

Project description:Although much research has been done on the diversity of gut microbiome, little is known about the way it influences intestinal homeostasis under normal and pathogenic conditions. Epigenetic mechanisms have recently been suggested as operating at the interface between the microbiota and the intestinal epithelium cells (IECs). Using genome-wide analyses, we discovered that exposure to microbiota induced both global DNA hypomethylation and localized changes at regulatory elements, which culminates in activation of a set of “early sentinel” response genes that play a role in maintaining gut homeostasis. Furthermore, we demonstrated that exposure to microbiota in acute inflammation results in profound DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility changes at regulatory elements leading to alterations in the gene expression program in colitis and colon cancer. Our studies add a new dimension to our understanding of the cross talk between the microbiota and IECs, and provide the foundation for how microbiota impact epigenetic programming.
