Project description:Paneth cells are the primary, and possibly the sole, source of lysozyme in the intestinal lumen. Mice lacking the Paneth cell lysozyme gene, Lyz1, had diminished NLR signaling and basal inflammation, and were further protected from experimental colitis. Protection depended on an enhanced goblet and tuft cell program that was driven by IL13-IL4Ra-Stat6 signaling and required an expansion of lysozyme-sensitive mucolytic bacteria. Forced ectopic lysozyme production in colonic epithelium suppressed these bacteria and exacerbated colitis. Single cell RNA-seq of Lyz1 KO lamina propria revealed an activated ILC2 profile towards cytokine production. One lysozymesensitive species, Ruminococcus gnavus , when processed by lysozyme, induced a pro-inflammatory response, while non-processed R. gnavus stimulated IL13 production in lymphocytes. Consistent with a role of lysozyme for cell-wall processing in the inflammatory response, Lyz1 KO microbiota was anti-colitogenic in lysozymedeficient hosts but colitogenic in lysozyme-sufficient hosts. Thus, Paneth cell lysozyme regulates inflammatory tone by modulating mucosal response to specific bacterial groups.

Project description:Homeostasis of self-renewing small intestinal crypts results from neutral competition between Lgr5 stem cells, small cycling cells located at crypt bottoms1, 2. Lgr5 stem cells are interspersed between terminally differentiated Paneth cells, that are known to produce bactericidal products such as lysozyme and cryptdins/defensins3. Single Lgr5-expressing stem cells can be cultured to form long-lived, self-organizing crypt-villus organoids in the absence of non-epithelial niche cells4. Here, we note a close physical association of Lgr5 stem cells with Paneth cells in vivo and in vitro. CD24+ Paneth cells express EGF, TGFα, Wnt3 and the Notch-ligand Dll4, all essential signals for stem cell maintenance in culture. Co-culturing of sorted stem cells with Paneth cells dramatically improves organoid formation. This Paneth cell requirement can be substituted by a pulse of exogenous Wnt. Genetic removal of Paneth cells in vivo results in the concomitant loss of Lgr5 stem cells. In colon crypts, CD24+ cells residing between Lgr5 stem cells may represent the Paneth cell equivalents. We conclude that Lgr5 stem cells compete for essential niche signals provided by a specialized daughter cell, the Paneth cell.

Project description:Paneth cells of intestinal crypts contribute to host defense by producing antimicrobial peptides that are packaged as granules for secretion into the crypt lumen. Here, we provide evidence using light and electron microscopy that postsecretory Paneth cell granules undergo limited dissolution and accumulate within the intestinal crypts of cystic fibrosis (CF) mice. On the basis of this finding, we evaluated bacterial colonization and expression of two major constituents of Paneth cells, i.e., {alpha}-defensins (cryptdins) and lysozyme, in CF murine intestine. Paneth cell granules accumulated in intestinal crypt lumens in both untreated CF mice with impending intestinal obstruction and in CF mice treated with an osmotic laxative that prevented overt clinical symptoms and mucus accretion. Ultrastructure studies indicated little change in granule morphology within mucus casts, whereas granules in laxative-treated mice appear to undergo limited dissolution. Protein extracts from CF intestine had increased levels of processed cryptdins compared with those from wild-type (WT) littermates. Nonetheless, colonization with aerobic bacteria species was not diminished in the CF intestine and oral challenge with a cryptdin-sensitive enteric pathogen, Salmonella typhimurium, resulted in greater colonization of CF compared with WT intestine. Modest downregulation of cryptdin and lysozyme mRNA in CF intestine was shown by microarray analysis, real-time quantitative PCR, and Northern blot analysis. Based on these findings, we conclude that antimicrobial peptide activity in CF mouse intestine is compromised by inadequate dissolution of Paneth cell granules within the crypt lumens.

Total RNA was extracted from pooled small intestines of three WT and three CF mice using Tri-Reagent (Molecular Research Center, Cincinnati, OH), and poly(A) RNA was purified by using the MicroPoly(A) mRNA purification kit (Ambion, Austin, TX). The WT and CF poly(A) RNA samples were sent to IncyteGenomics (St. Louis, MO) where they were labeled with cyanine 3 (Cy3) and Cy5, respectively, and hybridized with the UniGEM1.31 array representing 9,570 known genes and expressed sequence tags.

We used intestinal cell fractions from Lgr5-EGFP-ires-CreERT2 mice, expressing GFP under the control of the Lgr5 promoter. RNA was isolated from two FACS sorted cell populations: stem cells were sorted based on high level of GFP expression (GFPhi) and Paneth cells were sorted based on high level of CD24 expression (CD24hi) and high side-scatter (SSChi). Differentially labelled cRNA from GFPhi and CD24hi/SSChi cells from two different sorts (each combining ten individual mice) were hybridized on 4X44K Agilent Whole Mouse Genome dual colour Microarrays (G4122F) in two dye swap experiments, resulting in four individual arrays.

Project description:The intestine is the critical organ not only for processing and resorbing nutrients from ingested food but also for defending the organism from external stresses such as pathogens. These functions are mainly carried out by the epithelium which is constantly being self-renewed throughout adult life. Intestinal epithelial homeostasis is maintained through well-controlled cell proliferation of the stem cells and transient amplifying cells and the apoptotic degeneration of epithelial cells, mostly at or near the tip of the villi. Many genes and pathways have been found to influence intestinal epithelial cell proliferation. Among them is the mTORC1 signaling pathway, whose activation is known to increase cell proliferation. Here, we report the first intestinal epithelial specific knockout (IEC-KO) of an amino acid transporter capable of activating mTORC1. We show that the transporter, slc7a5, is highly expressed in the intestinal crypt and slc7a5 IEC-KO leads to expected reduction in mTORC1 signal in the crypt or even in intestinal organoids in vitro. Surprisingly, slc7a5 IEC-KO leads to increased proliferation of both transit amplifying cells and crypt base stem cells but a reduction in the secretory cells, particularly mature Paneth cells in the crypt base. Our scRNA-seq and electron microscopic analyses reveals that slc7a5 IEC-KO causes dedifferentiation of the Paneth cells, leading to drastically reduced secretory granules and lysozyme expression without affecting the overall Paneth cell number. We further show that slc7a5 IEC-KO mice are prone to induced colitis due to this loss of Paneth cell differentiation. We propose a model where slc7a5 regulates secretory cell differentiation to affect stem cell niche and/or inflammatory response to regulate cell proliferation in the crypts.

Project description:Paneth cells (PCs) are long-lived secretory cells that reside at the bottoms of small intestinal crypts. Besides serving as niche cells for the neighboring Lgr5-positive stem cells, PCs secrete granules containing a broad spectrum of antimicrobial proteins, including lysozymes and defensins1. Here, we have used single-cell RNA sequencing to explore PC differentiation. We found a maturation gradient from early secretory progenitors to mature PCs, capturing the full maturation path of PCs. Moreover, differential expression of a subset of defensin genes in lysozyme-high PCs, e.g. Defa20, reveals at least two distinct stages of maturation.
