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:Enteric glial cells are important players in the control of motility, intestinal barrier integrity and inflammation. During inflammation, they switch into a reactive phenotype enabling them to release inflammatory mediators, thereby shaping the inflammatory environment. While a plethora of well-established in vivo models exist, cell culture models necessary to decipher the mechanistic pathways of enteric glial reactivity are less well standardized. In particular, the composition of extracellular matrices (ECM) can massively affect the experimental outcome. Considering the growing number of studies involving primary enteric glial cells, a better understanding of their homeostatic and inflammatory in vitro culture conditions is needed. We examined the impact of different ECMs on enteric glial culture homeostasis and immune responsiveness. We used 3’ bulk mRNA sequencing to compare cultured cells with in vivo enteric glial transcriptomes isolated from Sox10iCreERT2Rpl22HA/+ mice. Transcriptional analysis revealed strong similarities between enteric glia on Matrigel and laminin with enrichment of gene sets supporting neuronal differentiation, while cells on poly-L-ornithine showed enrichment related to cell proliferation. Comparing cultured and in vivo enteric glial transcriptomes revealed a 50% overlap. IL-1β treatment showed distinct coating-dependent gene expression signatures, with an enrichment of genes related to myeloid and epithelial cell differentiation on Matrigel and laminin coatings, while poly-L-ornithine induced more gene sets related to lymphocyte differentiation. Together, changes in differentiation and immune activation of primary enteric glial cells proved a strong effect of the ECM. We identified Matrigel and laminin as pre-eminent substrates for murine enteric glial cultures. These new insights will help to standardize and improve enteric glial culture quality and reproducibility between studies in the future, allowing a better comparison of their functional role in enteric neuroinflammation.
