Project description:The gastrointestinal tract is colonized by trillions of microorganisms collectively known as the gut microbiota. These microbes provide essential signals to support healthy gut function. The microbiota is separated from internal tissue by a single layer of intestinal epithelial cells that not only provides a physical barrier but also relays luminal signals to underlying gut immune cells. Altered microbiota composition including loss of anti-inflammatory microbes or outgrowth of mucosa-associated bacteria such as adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC) are hallmarks of inflammatory disease including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In contrast to their hypothesized role in pathology, we recently identified select AIEC isolates that improve outcomes in mouse colitis models. These AIEC induce macrophage production of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 which limits gut inflammation and supports barrier repair. These benefits were lost if the AIEC was unable to attach to epithelial cells. However, the epithelial signaling underlying this protection remained unclear. To understand if intestinal epithelial cells signaled to immune cells after microbial attachment, we utilized human colonic organoid monolayers and found co-culture with a subset of AIEC isolates upregulated immune regulatory genes including CCL2, a macrophage recruiting chemokine. This effect was only observed in undifferenced epithelial cells, indicating epithelial stem cell recognition of microbes leads to macrophage recruitment. In vivo, antibody blockade of CCR2 abrogated the protective effect of AIEC colonization. Using bacterial transcriptome analysis, we identified high flagellin expression in AIEC isolates that activated epithelial signaling, with lost signaling in organoids deficient for TLR5, the receptor for flagellin. Together our findings suggest intestinal epithelial cells recognize microbial signals to coordinate macrophage recruitment that support intestinal repair, protecting from colitis.

Project description:Our aim was to identify candidate transcripts that distinguish AIEC from non-invasive E. coli (NIEC) strains and might be useful for rapid and accurate identification of AIEC by culture-independent technology. We performed comparative RNA-Sequence (RNASeq) analysis using AIEC strain LF82 and NIEC strain HS during exponential and stationary growth.

Project description:Studying host-microbiota interactions is fundamental to understand mechanisms involved in intestinal inflammation and inflammatory bowel diseases. In this work, we studied these interactions in mice mono-associated with 4 bacteria and 2 yeasts, all representative of intestinal microbiota and/or associated with IBD pathogenesis: Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, adhesive-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC), Ruminococcus gnavus, Roseburia intestinalis, Saccharomyces boulardii and Candida albicans. Transcriptomics analyses showed that B. thetaiotaomicron had the highest immunological effect, being able to almost recapitulate the effects of a whole microbiota, and particularly induced Treg pathways. Furthermore, this analysis also pointed out the effects of E. coli AIEC LF82 on IDO activation and of S. boulardii on angiogenesis, as well as major effects of R. gnavus on metabolism. This work therefore reveals information on the role of each micro-organism and proposes several tracks to follow to better understand IBD pathogenesis and identify therapeutic targets 6 mono-associations + 2 controls (germ-free and conventionalized mice), with 5 to 7 mice per group.
