Placental macrophage (Hofbauer cell) response to viral and bacterial ligands is influenced by fetal sex

ABSTRACT: Bacterial and viral infections of the placenta are associated with inflammation and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Hofbauer cells (HBCs) are specialised fetal-origin macrophages in the placental villi and are proposed to protect the fetus from vertical transmission of pathogens; however, they are poorly understood. Here, we have performed quantitative proteomics on term HBCs under resting conditions and following exposure to bacterial and viral pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), and investigated the contribution of fetal sex to these responses. Resting HBCs expressed a plethora of proteins pertinent to macrophage function, including chemokines, cytokines, Toll-like receptors, and classical and non-classical major histocompatibility complex class I and II molecules. HBCs mounted divergent responses to bacterial versus viral PAMPs but exhibited protein expression changes suggestive of a switch towards a more pro-inflammatory phenotype. A comparison between male and female HBCs, showed that the latter mounted a much stronger and wider response. Sexual dimorphism in HBCs was primarily associated with lipid metabolism in males and cytoskeleton organisation in females. We provide a novel and comprehensive understanding regarding the phenotype of term placental macrophages and their sex-dependent responses to infectious triggers.

Treating the placenta with nanoparticles to prevent altered placental secretion and fetal development in response to hypoxia [Fetal Plasma]

Project description:Hypoxia-related pregnancy complications increase the risk of disease in the child in later life. No prevention is available. Previously we noted that a trophoblast barrier, an in vitro model of the placenta, reacted to oxidative stress by secreting factors that damage neighbouring cells. Application of mitochondrion-targeted antioxidant MitoQ prevented this. Here we tested the effects of MitoQ-bound nanoparticles on trophoblast barriers and in a rat model of gestational hypoxia.A single dose of MitoQ-nanoparticles, administered maternally before a hypoxic episode, reduced oxidative stress in the placental barrier without reaching the fetus and prevented changes to birthweight. MitoQ-nanoparticles further suppressed damaging signalling from the placental barriers. Altered signalling molecules in the fetal plasma and in conditioned media from rat placenta included changes to proteins with relevance to cardiovascular disease. We suggest as a future possibility, treatment of the placenta to prevent disease in the offspring in later life.

¬¬Identifying the cellular interactome of Epstein-Barr virus lytic regulator Zta reveals cellular targets contributing to viral replication.

Project description:The human gamma herpesvirus Epstein-Barr virus, infects most adults and is an important contributor to the development of many types of cancer. Essential contributions of viral genes to replication are known but the potential contributions of cell genes to viral replication are less well delineated. A key player is the viral protein Zta (BZLF1, ZEBRA, Z). This sequence-specific DNA-binding protein can disrupt viral latency by driving the transcription of target genes and by interacting with the EBV lytic origin of replication. Here we used an unbiased approach to identify the Zta-interactome in cells derived from a Burkitt’s lymphoma. Isolating Zta and associated proteins from Burkitt’s lymphoma cells undergoing EBV replication, followed by Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) mass spectrometry resulted in the identification of forty-four viral and cellular proteins in the Zta interactome. Of these two were known targets of Zta. The association of Zta with Hsc70 and the contribution that Hsc70 plays to EBV replication mirrors a contribution from HSP70 family members to the replication of other herpesviruses. Conversely, the association of Zta with NFATc2 has no known parallels for other herpesviruses. Zta attenuates the activity of an NFAT-dependent promoter, which shows a potential for dampening the expression of genes regulated by calcium-dependent signal transduction. Indeed, Zta has the ability to affect a feed-back loop limiting its own expression, which would aid viral replication by preventing the toxic effects of Zta overexpression.

Enhancement of red blood cell transfusion compatibility using CRISPR-mediated erythroblast gene editing

Project description:Regular blood transfusion is the cornerstone of care for patients with red blood cell (RBC) disorders such as thalassemia or sickle cell disease. With repeated transfusion, alloimmunisation often occurs due to incompatibility at the level of minor blood group antigens. We use CRISPR-mediated genome editing of an immortalised human erythroblast cell line (BEL-A) to generate multiple enucleation competent cell lines deficient in individual blood groups. Edits are combined to generate a single cell line deficient in multiple antigens responsible for the most common transfusion incompatibilities: ABO (Bombay phenotype), Rh (Rhnull), Kell (K0), Duffy (Duffynull), GPB (S- s- U-). These cells can be differentiated to generate deformable reticulocytes, illustrating the capacity for coexistence of multiple rare blood group antigen null phenotypes. This study provides the first proof-of-principle demonstration of combinatorial CRISPR-mediated blood group gene editing to generate customisable or multi-compatible RBCs for diagnostic reagents or recipients with complicated matching requirements.

Molecular identification of a BAR domain-containing coat complex for endosomal recycling of transmembrane proteins

Project description:Protein trafficking requires coat complexes that couple recognition of sorting motifs in transmembrane cargos with biogenesis of transport carriers. The mechanisms of cargo transport through the endosomal network are poorly understood. Here, we identify a sorting motif for endosomal recycling of cargos including the cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor and semaphorin 4C by the membrane tubulating BAR domain-containing sorting nexins SNX5 and SNX6. Crystal structures establish that this motif folds into a β-hairpin that binds a site in the SNX5/SNX6 phox homology domains. Over sixty cargos share this motif and require SNX5/SNX6 for their recycling. These include cargos involved in neuronal migration and a Drosophila snx6 mutant displays defects in axonal guidance. These studies identify a sorting motif and provide molecular insight into an evolutionary conserved coat complex, the ‘Endosomal SNX-BAR sorting complex for promoting exit 1’ (ESCPE-1), which couples sorting motif recognition to BAR domain-mediated biogenesis of cargo-enriched tubulo-vesicular transport carriers.

A novel paracrine induction of RNA Granules by Feline Calicivirus

Project description:We are here presenting a new paracrine induction of RNA granules by viruses. Infection by viruses imposes major stress on the host cell. In response to this stress, infected cells can induce several defence mechanisms, which include the activation of stress response pathways and the innate immune response. These often result in an inhibition of translation culminating in the assembly of cytoplasmic granules called stress granules (SGs). SGs assembly follows from liquid phase separation of aggregation-prone proteins such G3BP1 and TIA-1, leading to the sequestration of mRNAs. Because this threatens viral gene expression, viruses need to evade these stress response pathways to propagate. Using feline calicivirus (FCV), surrogate for norovirus, the main virus responsible for gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide, we previously showed that FCV impairs SGs assembly by cleaving the scaffold protein G3BP1. Interestingly, we observed that uninfected bystander cells assembled G3BP1 granules, suggesting a paracrine response trigged by the infection. We now present evidence that virus-free supernatant generated from infected cells can induce the formation of RNA granules. We have characterised the dynamic of the granules assembly via confocal microscopy. Moreover, we provide an understanding of paracrine granules function and specificity through their affinity purification followed by proteomics and RNAseq analysis of their proteins and mRNAs content. This helps to define rules of assembly and novel functions for paracrine granules highlighting fundamental differences with canonical stress granules.

Characterisation of proteome of a novel Escherichia coli strain exhibiting mucoviscous phenotype.

Project description:Protein expression by E. coli 26561 during the late-exponential phase of cultures under anaerobic conditions was examined. E. coli 26561 is a multidrug resistant (MDR) and shows an unusual hyper-mucoviscous phenotype. Resistance includes ESBL (CTX-M-14) and proteome was determined with and without exposure to sub-MIC concentrations of the 3rd generation cephalosporin ceftazidime. Ceftazidime exposure was at two sub-MIC levels, specifically 0.25x MIC (samples 5-7), 0.5x MIC (samples 8 - 10); samples 1-4 provided the unexposed Control. Both whole and phospho-enriched fractions for each sample were analysed. Quantification of peptides was assessed using 10-plex TMT labelling in conjunction with an Orbitrap Fusion Tribrid. Raw data produced by the Orbitrap were processed using Max Quant 1.5.4.7 using the included Andromeda search engine. Peptides were searched against our own database of E. coli 26561 proteins which was produced from a hybrid assembly of our reads obtained from MiSeq and PacBio sequencing platforms.
