Project description:Mucosal-Associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells are an innate-like subset of alpha/beta-T cells expressing semi-invariant TCRs that recognize conserved vitamin B2 metabolite-based antigens from microbes, thus contributing to protection against several bacterial pathogens. To investigate the transcriptomic changes induced during systemic Francisella tularensis infection, liver MAIT cells were recovered from naïve mice and mice at days 13 and 48 post infection.

Project description:A recently identified unconventional T cell population known as mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are characterized by the expression of semi-invariant T cell receptor (TCR) with a canonical TRAV1-2/TRAJ33 (Vα7.2/Jα33). These evolutionary conserved, innate-like T cells recognize vitamin B metabolites, derived from some bacteria and fungi. Due to their presence not only in the T cell repertoire of mucosal surfaces but also in peripheral blood and liver, and their significant involvement in a wide range of diseases, in-depth characterization of human MAIT cells is a timely requirement. Studies that examined the transcriptome, immunoproteome, and whole-cell proteome characterized the role of cytotoxic molecules and cytokines in effector functions of MAIT cells and their relationship with some other immune cell subsets. As MAIT cells are classified under the CD3+ T cell compartment and the majority express surface receptor CD8, identifying their proteomic relationship with CD3+ and CD8+ T cells is pivotal. Thus, a high-resolution dataset was generated using the cell populations sorted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of three healthy volunteers to describe the whole cell proteomes of MAIT, CD3+, and CD8+ T cells. Trypsin-digested peptide samples obtained from the methanol co-precipitation method were analyzed using an Orbitrap FusionTM TribridTM mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) inline coupled to nanoACQUITY ultra-performance liquid chromatography system (Waters, USA) to acquire data-dependent shotgun proteomic data (DDA-MS) for label-free quantification. Analysis of raw DDA-MS data using MaxQuant software and maxLFQ identified and quantified 4,442 protein groups at a 1% false discovery rate. Further analysis identified 3,680 proteins which were detected with a single UniProt accession and a minimum of 2 unique or razor peptides. Thus this proteomic dataset can be used as a reference proteome for future studies on human MAIT cells.

Project description:Mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are an abundant population of innate T cells that recognize bacterial ligands and play a key role in host protection against bacterial and viral pathogens. Upon activation, MAIT cells undergo proliferative expansion and increase their production of effector molecules such as cytokines. In this study, we found that mRNA and protein the abundance of the key metabolism regulator and transcription factor MYC was increased in stimulated MAIT cells. Using quantitative mass spectrometry, we identified the activation of two MYC controlled metabolic pathways, amino acid transport and glycolysis, both of which were necessary for MAIT cell proliferation. Finally, we showed that MAIT cells isolated from people with obesity showed decreased MYC mRNA abundance upon activation, which was associated with defective MAIT cell proliferation and functional responses. Collectively, our data uncovers the importance of MYC-regulated metabolism for MAIT cell proliferation and provides additional insight into the molecular basis for the functional defects of MAIT cells in obesity.

Project description:Differential expression in human peripheral blood monocytes between F. novicida-infected and uninfected, and between Francisella tularensis tularensis isolate Schu S4 and uninfected. The goal was to examine genomewide transcriptional reponses to these two strains, and identify differentially-regulated genes that may help explain the virulence of Schu S4.

Project description:Francisella tularensis is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes a fatal human disease known as tularemia. The Centers for Disease Control have classified F. tularensis as Category A Tier-1 Select Agent. The virulence mechanisms of Francisella are not entirely understood. Francisella possesses very few transcription regulators, and most of these regulate the expression of genes involved in intracellular survival and virulence. The F. tularensis genome sequence analysis reveals an AraC (FTL_0689) transcriptional regulator homologous to the AraC/XylS family of transcriptional regulators. In Gram-negative bacteria, AraC activates genes required for L-arabinose utilization and catabolism. The role of the FTL_0689 regulator in F. tularensis is not known. In this study, we characterized the role of FTL_0689 in gene regulation of F. tularensis and investigated its contribution to intracellular survival and virulence. The results demonstrate that FTL_0689 in Francisella is not required for L-arabinose utilization. Instead, FTL_0689 specifically regulates the expression of the oxidative and global stress response, virulence, metabolism, and other key pathways genes required by Francisella when exposed to oxidative stress. The FTL_0689 mutant is attenuated for intramacrophage growth, and mice infected with the FTL_0689 mutant survive better than wild-type F. tularensis LVS infected mice. Based on the deletion mutant phenotype, FTL_0689 was termed osrR (oxidative stress response regulator). Altogether, this study elucidates the role of the osrR transcriptional regulator in tularemia pathogenesis.

Project description:Francisella tularensis, is an extremely virulent bacterium that can be transmitted naturally by blood sucking arthropods. During mammalian infection, F. tularensis infects numerous types of host cells, including erythrocytes. As erythrocytes do not undergo phagocytosis or endocytosis, it remains unknown how F. tularensis invades these cells. Furthermore, the consequence of inhabiting the intracellular space of red blood cells has not been determined. Here, we provide evidence indicating that residing within an erythrocyte enhances the ability of F. tularensis to colonize ticks following a blood meal.

Project description:Francisella tularensis is classified as a Category A priority pathogen and causes fatal disseminated disease in humans upon inhalation of less than 50 bacteria. Although drugs are available for treatment, they are not ideal because of toxicity and delivery, and in some cases relapse upon withdrawal. We have an ongoing program in the development of novel FabI enoyl-ACP-reductase enzyme inhibitors for Francisella and other select agents. To establish ftFabI in F. tularensis as a clinically relevant drug target, we demonstrated that the enzyme is essential for growth in vitro and that ftfabI is not transcriptionally altered in the presence of exogenous fatty acids. Inhibition of ftFabI results in loss of viability that is not rescued by exogenous fatty acids supplementation. Importantly, whole-genome transcriptional profiling of F. tularensis with DNA microarrays from infected tissues revealed that ftfabI and de novo fatty acid biosynthetic genes are transcriptionally active during infection. This is the first demonstration that the FabI enoyl-ACP-reductase enzyme encoded by F. tularensis is essential and that de novo fatty acid biosynthetic components are transcriptionally active during infection in the mouse model tularemia.
