Host susceptibility to recurrent cystitis is shaped by bladder TNF-alpha signaling dynamics

Project description:Urinary tract infections (UTI) are common and recurrent. Both host genetics and UTI history impact susceptibility to recurrent UTI (rUTI) in women and in animal models. To identify shared patterns of host response that correlate with susceptibility, we investigated bladder inflammatory and transcriptional kinetics in acute and rUTI models. We found that TNFɑ signaling kinetics differed with mouse strain and infection history. Mice resistant to severe UTI/rUTI displayed a robust TNFɑ-dependent inflammation during the first 6 hours of acute cystitis, which waned by 24 hours; mice that are susceptible varied in their early responses but were prone to severe inflammation at 24 hours post-infection. Depletion of TNFɑ in an rUTI model revealed that early TNFɑ signaling promoted colonization resistance via exfoliation of infected bladder cells, but prolonged TNFɑ signaling exacerbated inflammation, thereby worsening infection. Host genetics and disease history impacts susceptibility by regulating the kinetics of a common TNFɑ pathway.

Gardnerella vaginalis activates host responses necessary for Escherichia coli recurrent UTI from bladder reservoirs

Project description:Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) are a costly clinical problem affecting millions of women worldwide each year. The majority of rUTI cases are caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). Data from humans and mouse models indicate that some instances of rUTI are caused by UPEC emerging from latent reservoirs in the bladder. Some studies have reported that women with vaginal dysbiosis, typically characterized by high levels of Gardnerella vaginalis and other anaerobes, are at increased risk of UTI. Multiple studies have detected G. vaginalis in urine collected by transurethral catheterization (to limit vaginal contamination), suggesting that some women experience routine urinary tract exposures. We recently reported that inoculation of G. vaginalis into the bladder triggers rUTI from UPEC bladder reservoirs in a mouse model. Here we performed whole bladder RNAseq to identify host pathways involved in G. vaginalis-induced rUTI. We identified multiple host pathways differentially expressed following G. vaginalis exposure. At the gene and transcript level, we identified upregulation of the orphan nuclear receptor Nur77 (aka Nr4a1) and Nur77-regulated genes. Pilot data from Nur77 knockout mice suggests that Nur77 is necessary for G. vaganalis exposure to trigger rUTI.

Transcriptome profiling of endometrial biopsies inflammatory response to Chlamydia trachomatis genital tract infection

Project description:Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacterium that frequently causes an asymptomatic genital tract infection, gradually cleared by host immunity Transcriptome profiles were made of endometrial tissue from women with or without genital tract C. trachomatis infection, to characterize host responses to infection. Profiles showed that infection polarized host defense toward Type 2 immune responses. Responses included fibrin deposition, enhanced wound repair, and tissue remodeling. Trans-cervical endometrial biopsy specimens were collected from 10 women with no identified upper or lower genital tract infection and 12 women with C. trachomatis endometrial infection.

Lower Urinary Tract and Sexual Function in Women Following Surgery for Colorectal Disorders

Project description:This is a prevalence study evaluating lower urinary tract, prolapse, bowel, and sexual symptoms in women with a colorectal disorder who are planning to undergo surgery. The purpose of this study is to identify the number of women who complain of lower urinary tract and bowel problems, including frequency, urgency, urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, pain with intercourse, and other sexual problems prior to undergoing surgical management for a colorectal disorder.

Gene expression profile in patients inoculated with E. coli 83972

Project description:Urinary tract infections (UTIs) constitute a highly relevant model of microbial adaptation, in which the contrasting effects of pathogens and commensals on host tissues are clearly displayed. While virulent Escherichia coli cause severe, potentially life-threatening disease by breaking the inertia of the mucosal barrier and infecting the kidneys, the most common outcome of bacteriuria is an asymptomatic carrier state resembling commensalism at other mucosal sites. It remains unclear if the lack of destructive inflammation merely reflects low virulence or if carrier strains actively inhibit disease associated responses in the host. To address this question, we examined the effects of asymptomatic bacterial carriage on host gene expression. Therapeutic urinary tract inoculation with the prototype ABU strain E. coli 83972 is a safe alternative approach in patients with therapy-resistant recurrent UTI. The strain establishes persistent bacteriuria, protecting patients against super-infection with more virulent strains. Using this protocol, we examined if the establishment of asymptomatic bacterial carriage alters host gene expression. After antibiotic treatment to remove prior infection, patients were inoculated with E. coli 83972 through a catheter. Blood samples were obtained before and 24 h after inoculation.
