Project description:The mammalian gastrointestinal tract and the bloodstream are highly disparate biological niches, and yet certain commensal-pathogenic microorganisms are able to thrive in both environments. Here, we report the evolution of a unique transcription circuit in the yeast, Candida albicans, which determines its fitness in both host niches. Our comprehensive analysis of the DNA-binding proteins that regulate iron uptake by this organism suggests the evolutionary intercalation of a transcriptional activator called Sef1 between two broadly conserved transcriptional repressors, Sfu1 and Hap43. The Sef1 activator of iron uptake genes promotes virulence in a mouse model of bloodstream infection, whereas the Sfu1 repressor is dispensable for virulence but promotes gastrointestinal commensalism. We propose that the ability to alternate between genetic programs conferring resistance to iron depletion in the bloodstream versus iron toxicity in the gut may be a fundamental attribute of gastrointestinal commensal-pathogens. ChIP analyses to profile genome-wide of distribution of Sef1, Sfu1 and Hap43 in response to various iron availability. 12 independent ChIP experiments were performed on 6 biological replicates of the untagged control and 2 biological replicates each of Sef1-Myc, Sfu1-Myc, and Hap43-Myc.

Project description:BACKGROUND Enteric glia contribute to the pathophysiology of various intestinal immune-driven diseases, such as postoperative ileus (POI), a motility disorder and common complication after abdominal surgery. Enteric gliosis of the intestinal muscularis externa (ME) has been identified as part of POI development. However, the glia-restricted responses and activation mechanisms are poorly understood. The sympathetic nervous system becomes rapidly activated by abdominal surgery. It modulates intestinal immunity, innervates all intestinal layers, and directly interfaces with enteric glia. We hypothesized that sympathetic innervation controls enteric glia reactivity in response to surgical trauma. METHODS Sox10iCreERT2/Rpl22HA/+ mice were subjected to a mouse model of laparotomy or intestinal manipulation to induce POI. Histological, protein, and transcriptomic analyses were performed to analyze glia-specific responses. Interactions between the sympathetic nervous system and enteric glia were studied in mice chemically depleted of TH+ sympathetic neurons and glial-restricted Sox10iCreERT2/JellyOPfl/+/Rpl22HA/+ mice, allowing optogenetic stimulation of β-adrenergic downstream signaling and glial-specific transcriptome analyses. A laparotomy model was used to study the effect of sympathetic signaling on enteric glia in the absence of intestinal manipulation. Mechanistic studies included adrenergic receptor expression profiling in vivo and in vitro and adrenergic agonism treatments of primary enteric glial cell cultures to elucidate the role of sympathetic signaling in acute enteric gliosis and POI. RESULTS With ~4000 differentially expressed genes, the most substantial enteric glia response occurs early after intestinal manipulation. During POI, enteric glia switch into a reactive state and continuously shape their microenvironment by releasing inflammatory and migratory factors. Sympathetic denervation reduced the inflammatory response of enteric glia in the early postoperative phase. Optogenetic and pharmacological stimulation of β-adrenergic downstream signaling triggered enteric glia reactivity. Finally, distinct adrenergic agonists revealed β-1/2 adrenoceptors as the molecular targets of sympathetic–driven enteric glial reactivity. CONCLUSIONS Enteric glia act as early responders during post-traumatic intestinal injury and inflammation. Intact sympathetic innervation and active β-adrenergic receptor signaling in enteric glia is a trigger of the immediate glial postoperative inflammatory response. With immune-activating cues originating from the sympathetic nervous system as early as the initial surgical incision, adrenergic signaling in enteric glia presents a promising target for preventing POI development.

Project description:This study was undertaken to define the molecular subtypes of cells within enteric neurospheres. Methods: We performed single-cell RNA sequencing on 3-dimensional neurosphere cultures derived from the small intestines of Plp1::GFP mice. These data show profiling results from the PLP1::GFP negative cell fraction ancillary to the positive fraction in series GSE184981. Results: We identify populations of enteric neurons and fibroblasts in the PLP1::GFP negative cell fraction of enteric neurospheres.

Project description:Enteric glia are the predominant cell type in the enteric nervous system yet their identities and roles in gastrointestinal function are not well classified. Using our optimized single nucleus RNA-sequencing method, we identified distinct molecular classes of enteric glia and defined their morphological and spatial diversity. Our findings revealed a functionally specialized biosensor subtype of enteric glia that we call “hub cells.” Deletion of the mechanosensory ion channel PIEZO2 from adult enteric glial hub cells, but not other subtypes of enteric glia, led to defects in intestinal motility and gastric emptying in mice. These results provide insight into the multifaceted functions of different enteric glial cell subtypes in gut health and emphasize that therapies targeting enteric glia could advance the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases.

Using an optimized single nucleus RNA-sequencing method, we identified distinct molecular classes of enteric glia and defined their morphological and spatial diversity. Our findings revealed a functionally specialized class of enteric glial cells that we call “hub cells.” Hub cells retain dual functionality: they generate neurons and glia and act as force transducers to regulate intestinal physiology. Deletion of the mechanosensory ion channel PIEZO2 from adult enteric glial hub cells, but not other subtypes of enteric glia, led to defects in intestinal motility and gastric emptying in mice.

Project description:This study investigates the phenomenon of postnatal plasticity within the enteric nervous system (ENS), specifically investigating the reinnervation potential of post-mitotic enteric neurons. Employing BAF53b-Cre for selective tracing, the reinnervation capabilities of postnatal enteric neurons in multiple model systems are shown. Denervated enteric neurons exhibit the ability to regenerate neurites in vitro, with neurite complexity and direction notably influenced by contact with enteric glial cells (EGCs). In vivo nerve fibers from transplanted enteric neurons exclusively interface with EGCs. Resident EGCs are sustained after Cre dependent ablation of enteric neurons and govern the architecture of the ENS by reinnervating enteric neurons. Transplantation experiments underscore the swift reintegration and reinnervation potential of post-mitotic neurons, leading to restored muscle function within two weeks. Optogenetic investigations further delineate time-dependent functional recovery via transplantation of isolated enteric ganglia. These revelations demonstrate the structural and functional reinnervation capacity of post-mitotic enteric neurons, underscored by EGC guidance.
