Project description:Interferon gamma (IFN) is the major pro-inflammatory cytokine conferring resistance to the intracellular vacuolar pathogen Toxoplasma gondii. Autophagy along with immunity-related GTPases (IRGs), guanylate binding proteins (GBPs) and the E3 ubiquitin ligase TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) mediate clearance of Toxoplasma in IFN-stimulated cells. With the exception of inflammasomes, no host innate immune mediators impacting host survival have been identified at disrupted parasitophorous vacuoles. We show that IFN drives recruitment of the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM21 to GBP1-positive avirulent Toxoplasma vacuoles. This led to Lys63-linked ubiquitination of the vacuole and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. GBPs were ubiquitinated during infection and TRIM21 controlled their expression levels and the efficient recruitment of GBP1 to the vacuole. TRIM21 deficiency led to an enhanced early replication of Toxoplasma without interfering with vacuolar disruption. TRIM21-/- mice were highly susceptible to Toxoplasma infection, exhibiting decreased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and higher parasite burden in the brain. This study identifies TRIM21 as a previously unknown modulator of Toxoplasma gondii resistance thereby extending host innate immune recognition of eukaryotic pathogens to include E3 ubiquitin ligases.

Project description:Intracellular pathogens including the apicomplexan and opportunistic parasite Toxoplasma gondii profoundly modify their host cells in order to establish infection. We have shown previously that intracellular T. gondii inhibit up-regulation of regulatory and effector functions in murine macrophages (MΦ) stimulated with interferon (IFN)-γ, which is the cytokine crucial for controlling the parasites’ replication. Using genome-wide transcriptome analysis we show herein that infection with T. gondii leads to global unresponsiveness of murine macrophages to IFN-γ. More than 61% and 89% of the transcripts, which were induced or repressed by IFN-γ in non-infected MΦ, respectively, were not altered after stimulation of T. gondii-infected cells with IFN-γ. These genes are involved in a variety of biological processes, which are mostly but not exclusively related to immune responses. Analyses of the underlying mechanisms revealed that IFN-γ-triggered nuclear translocation of STAT1 still occurred in Toxoplasma-infected MΦ. However, STAT1 bound aberrantly to oligonucleotides containing the IFN-γ-responsive gamma-activated site (GAS) consensus sequence. Conversely, IFN-γ did not induce formation of active GAS-STAT1 complexes in nuclear extracts from infected MΦ. Mass spectrometry of protein complexes bound to GAS oligonucleotides showed that T. gondii-infected MΦ are unable to recruit non-muscle actin to IFN-γ-responsive DNA sequences, which appeared to be independent of stimulation with IFN-γ and of STAT1 binding. IFN-γ-induced recruitment of BRG-1 and acetylation of core histones at the IFN-γ-regulated CIITA promoter IV, but not β-actin was diminished by >90% in Toxoplasma-infected MΦ as compared to non-infected control cells. Remarkably, treatment with histone deacetylase inhibitors restored the ability of infected macrophages to express the IFN-γ regulated genes H2-A/E and CIITA. Taken together, these results indicate that Toxoplasma-infected MΦ are unable to respond to IFN-γ due to disturbed chromatin remodelling, but can be rescued using histone deacetylase inhibitors. Comparison of 4 different RNA pools with a 2-Color-Loop Design including 10 microarrays: [1] T. gondii infected and IFN-gamma treated, [2] T. gondii infected and untreated, [3] Non-infected and IFN-gamma treated, and [4] Non-infected and untreated.

Project description:Pathogen virulence factors interfere with various cellular activities, a disruption that can trigger innate immune responses. Interferon-gamma (IFNγ)-inducible antimicrobial factors, such as the guanylate binding proteins (GBPs), promote cell-intrinsic defense against intracellular pathogens by directly attacking intracellular pathogens and by committing the infected host cell to programmed cell death. GBPs are large GTPases that traffic to pathogens in the cytosol or that reside within membrane-bound compartments and restrict microbial growth. We discovered that ectopic expression of the prototypical IFNγ-inducible GTPase, Guanylate Binding Protein 1 (GBP1), in the absence of IFNγ kills human macrophages, accompanied by fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus. Exposure to IFNγ improved host cell survival via the activity of PIM1 kinase. PIM1 phosphorylates GBP1 and imposes its sequestration by 14-3-3σ to prevent membrane association of GBP1. Analysis by cryo-EM showed that a 14-3-3σ-dimer trapped GBP1 in an inactive monomeric state. This control mechanism becomes evident during Toxoplasma gondii infection, where the effector protein TgIST interferes with IFNγ-signaling and thereby unintentionally depletes the short-lived kinase PIM1. This, in turn, increases GBP1-driven control of the pathogen. Uninfected bystander cells are spared during inflammation, while the infected cells restrain the pathogen in a rapid GBP1-dependent manner. Our work establishes PIM1 as a bait for pathogen virulence factors, thus safeguarding the integrity of IFNγ-signaling. This work presents a new paradigm of IFNγ-dependent protection of uninfected cells against self-inflicted innate immune damage.

Project description:The lytic cycle of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii, which involves a brief sojourn in the extracellular space, is characterized by defined transcriptional profiles. For an obligate intracellular parasite that is shielded from the cytosolic host immune factors by a parasitophorous vacuole, the brief entry into the extracellular space is likely to exert enormous stress. Due to its role in cellular stress response, we hypothesize that translational control plays an important role in regulating gene expression in Toxoplasma during the lytic cycle. Unlike transcriptional profiles, insights into genome-wide translational profiles of Toxoplasma gondii are lacking. We have performed genome-wide ribosome profiling, coupled with high throughput RNA sequencing, in intracellular and extracellular Toxoplasma gondii parasites to investigate translational control during the lytic cycle. Results: Although differences in transcript abundance were mostly mirrored at the translational level, we observed significant differences in the abundance of ribosome footprints between the two parasite stages. Furthermore, our data suggest that mRNA translation in the parasite is potentially regulated by mRNA secondary structure and upstream open reading frames.

Project description:The closely related protozoan parasites Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum display similar life cycles, subcellular ultrastructure, invasion mechanisms, metabolic pathways, and genome organization, but differ in their host range and disease pathogenesis. Type II (?) interferon has long been known to be the major mediator of innate and adaptive immunity to Toxoplasma infection, but genome-wide expression profiling of infected host cells indicates that Neospora is a potent activator of the type I (?/?) interferon pathways typically associated with antiviral responses. Infection of macrophages from mice with targeted deletions in various innate sensing genes demonstrates that host responses to Neospora are dependent on the toll-like receptor Tlr3 and the adapter protein Trif. Consistent with this observation, RNA from Neospora elicits type I interferon responses when targeted to the host endo-lysosomal system. While live Toxoplasma fails to induce type I interferon, heat-killed parasites do trigger this response, and co-infection studies reveal that T. gondii actively suppresses the production of type I interferon. These findings reveal that eukaryotic pathogens can be potent inducers of type I interferon and that some parasite species, like Toxoplasma gondii, have evolved mechanisms to suppress this response. In vitro cultures of bone marrow-derived macrophages from WT or IFNAR2-/- mice were infected with either Toxoplasma gondii (VEG strain) or Neospora caninum (Nc2 strain) for 17 hours. RNA was collected from biological replicates for expression profiling by microarray. Uninfected controls for both WT and IFNAR2-/- were used as a reference.

Project description:Successful asexual reproduction of intracellular pathogens depend on their potential to exploit host resources and subvert antimicrobial defense. Here, we deployed two prevalent intracellular parasites of mammalian cells, namely Toxoplasma gondii and Eimeria falciformis, to identify the potential host determinants of infection. Expression analyses of the young adult mouse colonic (YAMC) epithelial cells showed regulation of several distinct transcripts upon infection by either parasite, indicating that closely-related pathogens program their intracellular niches in notably adaptive manner. Conversely, parasitized mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) exhibited a divergent transcriptome compared to corresponding YAMC cells, suggesting that individual host cells mount fairly discrete response while encountering a given pathogen. Among a limited set of factors similarly regulated by both parasites, we identified cFos, a master transcription factor, that was consistently induced throughout infection. Indeed, the asexual development of T. gondii and E. falciformis was severely impaired in MEF cells lacking cFos expression. Last but not least, our comparative transcriptomics of the parasitized MEFs (wild-type and cFos-/- mutant) and YAMC epithelial cells disclosed a cFos-network, underlying signal transduction cascades, as well as a repertoire of nucleotides-binding and ion-binding proteins, which are likely co-opted by coccidian pathogens to acclimatize the mammalian host environment.

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is an obligate intracellular parasite that can infect almost all warm-blooded animals, causing serious public health problems. Lysine crotonylation (Kcr) is a newly discovered posttranslational modification (PTM), which has been proved that is relevant to procreation regulation, active transcription and cell signaling pathway. However, the biological functions of crotonylation have not yet been reported in macrophages infected with T. gondii. In our study, we performed a ChIP-seq analysis of porcine alveolar macrophages infected with T. gondii RH to explore the relationship of histone Kcr with T. gondii infection.

Type II (γ) interferon has long been known to be the major mediator of innate and adaptive immunity to Toxoplasma infection, but genome-wide expression profiling of infected host cells indicates that Neospora is a potent activator of the type I (α/β) interferon pathways typically associated with antiviral responses. Infection of macrophages from mice with targeted deletions in various innate sensing genes demonstrates that host responses to Neospora are dependent on the toll-like receptor Tlr3 and the adapter protein Trif.

These findings reveal that eukaryotic pathogens can be potent inducers of type I interferon and that some parasite species, like Toxoplasma gondii, have evolved mechanisms to suppress this response. Human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF; line BJ-5ta) were cultured to confluency in T25 flasks, infected with one representative of each of the three architypial strains of Toxoplasma gondii: GT1 (type I), Prugniaud (type II) and VEG (type III), or the closely related parasite species, Neospora caninum (strain Nc-Liv). RNA was collected from biological replicates for expression profiling by microarray. Uninfected HFF cells were used as a reference.
