Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) caused by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is characterized by inflammatory pathology and poorly understood mechanisms of innate immunity. Pattern recognition receptors (PRR), expressed on the surface of macrophages, determine the balance of inflammatory and antimicrobial functions that influence disease outcome. Carbohydrate moieties displayed by mycobacteria can serve as PRR ligands for some members of the C-type lectin receptor (CLR) family; interactions that mediate a variety of incompletely understood immune outcomes. This work identifies a novel role for the CLR Macrophage Galactose-type Lectin-1 (MGL-1) in a mouse model of experimental tuberculosis. Murine macrophages upregulated MGL-1 following in vitro exposure to Mtb, while MGL+ cells accumulated at sites of mycobacteria-driven inflammation in the lung. Pulmonary macrophages from MGL-1-deficient mice displayed increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1b, IL-6 and IFN-g) that was associated with greater lipid accumulation, following Mtb infection. Surprisingly for a CLR, we also observed MGL-1-dependent anti-mycobacterial activity as evidenced by greater Mtb proliferation in BMDM, and the lung, of MGL-1 deficient mice. These results identify MGL-1 signaling as an important mechanism that regulates innate immunity against Mtb and indicate potential for the MGL pathway as a novel therapeutic target for anti-TB immunity.

This work identifies a novel role for the CLR macrophage galactose-type lectin (MGL)-1 in a mouse model (C57BL/6 and MGL-1-/-) of experimental TB. Murine macrophages upregulated MGL-1 following in vitro exposure to M. tuberculosis, whereas MGL+ cells accumulated at sites of mycobacteria-driven inflammation in the lung. Pulmonary macrophages from MGL-1-deficient mice displayed increased production of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and IFN-γ) that were associated with greater lipid accumulation, following M. tuberculosis infection. Surprisingly, for a CLR, we also observed MGL-1-dependent antimycobacterial activity as evidenced by greater M. tuberculosis proliferation in bone marrow-derived macrophages, and the lung, of MGL-1-deficient mice. Differential transcriptome analysis further revealed that loss of MGL-1 perturbs the activation of various genes involved in the regulation of inflammation and lipid metabolism in the setting of M. tuberculosis infection. These results identify MGL-1 signaling as an important mechanism that regulates innate immunity against M. tuberculosis and indicates the potential for the MGL pathway as a novel therapeutic target for anti-TB immunity.

Project description:Background The Ca2+-dependent C-type lectin receptor Macrophage Galactose-type Lectin (MGL) is highly expressed by tolerogenic dendritic cells (DC) and macrophages. MGL exhibits a high binding specificity for terminal alpha- and beta-linked GalNAc residues found in Tn, sTn and LacdiNAc antigens. These glycan epitopes are often overexpressed in colorectal cancer (CRC), and, as such, MGL can be used to discriminate tumor from the corresponding healthy tissues. Moreover, the high expression of MGL ligands is associated with poor disease-free survival in stage III of CRC tumors. Nonetheless, the glycoproteins expressed by tumor cells that are recognized by MGL have hitherto remained elusive. Methods Using a panel of three CRC cell lines (HCT116, HT29 and LS174T), recapitulating CRC diversity, we performed FACS staining and pull-down assays using a recombinant soluble form of MGL (and a mutant MGL as control) combined with mass spectrometry-based (glyco)proteomics. Results HCT116 and HT29, but not LS174T, are high MGL-binding CRC cell lines. On these cells, the major cell surface binding proteins are receptors (e.g. MET, PTK7, SORL1, PTPRF) and integrins (ITGB1, ITGA3). From these proteins, several N- and/or O-glycopeptides were identified, of which some carried either a LacdiNAc or Tn epitope.

Project description:Monocyte differentiation into macrophages represents one of the cornerstone processes in innate host defense. In addition, immunological imprinting of either tolerance or trained immunity after an initial infection determines the functional fate of innate immune cells and the susceptibility of the host to secondary infections. Here we comprehensively characterize the epigenetic profiles of these functional states relative to healthy adult naM-CM-/ve monocytes. Inflammatory and metabolic pathways are strongly modulated in the derived macrophages, including decreased activation of inflammasome components. The cAMP-dependent signaling pathway is remodeled and adrenergic signaling was functionally implicated in trained innate immunity induction in vivo. Interestingly, M-oM-^AM-"-Glucan trains innate immune cells through extensive remodeling of distal regulatory region-bound histone acetylation, resulting in a sizeable exclusive epigenomic signature. Accordingly, genome-wide transcription factor footprint analysis reveals a specific transcription factor repertoire at trained cell-specific enhancers when recouped with epigenetic data, forming a rich hypothesis generator to manipulate innate immunity. Monocytes were pre-incubated either with cell culture medium (RPMI), M-NM-2-glucan (5M-BM-5g/mL) or with LPS (100ng/mL), for 24 hours in a total volume of 10 mL. After a wash-out, cells were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% human pool serum. Monocytes were collected at different time points (0 h and 6 d after treatment) and counted before further treatment for chromatin immunoprecipitation, RNA or DNaseI treatment. Different donor Buffycoats (BC) were used as independent replicates. Replicates were generated for all the profiles including ChIPseq,RNAseq and DNaseIseq.

Project description:Microbiota play critical roles in regulating colitis and colorectal cancer (CRC). However, it is unclear how the microbiota generate protective immunity against these disease states. Here, we find that loss of the innate and adaptive immune signaling molecule, TAK1, in myeloid cells (Tak1ΔM/ΔM) yields complete resistance to chemical-induced colitis and CRC through microbiome alterations that drive protective immunity. Tak1ΔM/ΔM mice exhibit altered microbiota that are critical for resistance, with antibiotic-mediated disruption ablating protection and Tak1ΔM/ΔM microbiota transfer conferring protection against colitis or CRC. The altered microbiota of Tak1ΔM/ΔM mice promote IL-1β and IL-6 signaling pathways, which are required for induction of protective intestinal Th17 cells and resistance. Specifically, Odoribacter splanchnicus is abundant in Tak1ΔM/ΔM mice and sufficient to induce intestinal Th17 cell development and confer resistance against colitis and CRC in wild-type mice. These findings identify specific microbiota strains and immune mechanisms that protect against colitis and CRC.

Project description:Reports conflict regarding which lectin-microbial ligand interactions elicit a protective response from the lectin pathway (LP) of complement. Using fluorescent microscopy, we demonstrate the human lectin ficolin-2 binds to Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 11A capsule polysaccharide dependent on the O-acetyltransferase gene wcjE. This triggers complement deposition and promotes opsonophagocytosis of encapsulated pneumococci. Even partial loss of ficolin-2 ligand expression through wcjE mutation abrogated bacterial killing. Ficolin-2 did not interact with any pneumococcal non-capsule structures, including teichoic acid. We describe multiple 11A clonal derivatives expressing varying degrees of wcjE-dependent epitopes co-isolated from single blood specimens, likely representing microevolutionary shifts towards wcjE-deficient populations during invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). We find epidemiological evidence of wcjE impairing pneumococcal invasiveness, supporting that the LP's ficolin-2 axis provides innate, serotype-specific serological protection against IPD. The fact that the LP is triggered by only a few discrete carbohydrate ligands emphasizes the need to reevaluate its impact in a glycopolymer-specific manner.

Project description:Transcriptional landscape of MyceliopTranscriptional profiling of Myceliophthora thermophila on galactose and metabolic engineering for improved galactose utilization thora thermophila responding to soluble starch and the role of regulator AmyR on polysaccharide degradation Efficient biological conversion of all sugars from lignocellulosic biomass is necessary for cost-effective production of biofuels and commodity chemicals. Galactose is the next most abundant sugar in many hemicelluloses and it will be important to capture this carbon for an efficient bioconversion process of plant biomass. Thermophilic fugus Myceliophthora thermophila has been used as cell factory to produce biochemicals directly from renewable polysaccharides. This study determined the transcriptomic profiles of M. thermophila responding to galactose and identified the gene involved in the oxido-reductive pathway for galactose degradation, of which hexokinase might be the rate-limiting enzyme in this thermophilic fungus. Galactokinase was necessary for high induction of galactose transporter and disruption of galK resulted in decreased galactose utilization. Both of galactokinase deletion and sugar transporter overexpression could further activate the oxido-reductive pathway and led to improved galactose utilization. In addition, disruption of the Leloir pathway brought about reduced tolerance to cell wall perturbation, oxidative stress and high osmolality. In order to accelerate galactose consumption, the third galactose-degradation pathway- De Ley-Doudoroff pathway was successfully integrated into M. thermophila and the consumption rate of galactose was increased by 57%. This study will be benefit for the rational design of fungal strains to produce biofuels and biochemical from plant biomass, especially, marine plant biomass with the abundant of galactose, such as red seaweed and molasses.

Project description:Mechanisms through which the microbiome communicates with the systemic immune system remain unclear. We have identified a family of microbiome Bacteroidota-derived lipopeptides – the serine-glycine (S/G) lipids, and specifically L654 – that are TLR2 ligands, access the systemic circulation, and potentially link the microbiome and systemic innate immunity. We have previously postulated that L654 and the S/G lipids regulate systemic innate immunity by entering the systemic circulation and mediating weak TLR2 interactions that maintain “normal” levels of innate immune signaling feedback inhibitors. In proof-of-concept studies, we reported that increasing systemic L654 levels in mice by administering exogenous L654 intravenously significantly diminishes systemic innate immune responses and attenuates murine autoimmunity. In the present study, our goal was to confirm the role of the microbiome in mediating this mode of immunoregulation by decreasing the microbiome-based production of S/G lipids. We now report that decreasing microbiome Bacteroidota in mice using a specific oral antibiotic/rest protocol reduces fecal and plasma S/G lipids levels and significantly enhances systemic innate immune responses. Replenishing systemic levels of S/G lipids after antibiotic treatment through exogenous administration of L654 returns innate immune responses to normal levels, confirming the regulatory role of S/G lipids in this mode of microbiome regulation. Finally, RNAseq analysis of splenic monocytes derived from antibiotic-treated and control mice prior to ex vivo stimulation demonstrates that the antibiotic/rest protocol and the concomitant decrease in microbiome S/G lipids and Bacteroidota has significant downregulatory effects on normal homeostatic pro-inflammatory pathways. These effects are also associated with downregulation of specific proinflammatory pathway inhibitors, which may suggest a potential mechanism underlying the enhancement in ex vivo innate immune stimulated responses of these monocytes. Overall, our results suggest that S/G lipids are microbiome-derived bacterial factors capable of regulating systemic innate immunity and as such are manipulatable targets with therapeutic potential for enhancing or decreasing innate immunity in the context of infectious, malignant, and autoimmune diseases.

Project description:A galactose-specific C-type lectin has been purified from a pupal extract of Drosophila melanogaster. This lectin gene, named DL1 (Drosophila lectin 1), is part of a gene cluster with the other two galactose-specific C-type lectin genes, named DL2 (Drosophila lectin 2) and DL3 (Drosophila lectin 3). These three genes are expressed differentially in fruit fly, but show similar haemagglutinating activities. The present study characterized the biochemical and biological properties of the DL1 protein. The recombinant DL1 protein bound to Escherichia coli and Erwinia chrysanthemi, but not to other Gram-negative or any other kinds of microbial strains that have been investigated. In addition, DL1 agglutinated E. coli and markedly intensified the association of a Drosophila haemocytes-derived cell line with E. coli. For in vivo genetic analysis of the lectin genes, we also established a null-mutant Drosophila. The induction of inducible antibacterial peptide genes was not impaired in the DL1 mutant, suggesting that the galactose-specific C-type lectin does not participate in the induction of antibacterial peptides, but possibly participates in the immune response via the haemocyte-mediated mechanism.
