Project description:<p>Malaria, caused by <em>Plasmodium</em> species, remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality globally. Gut bacteria can influence the severity of malaria, but the contribution of specific bacteria to the risk of severe malaria is unknown. Here, multiomics approaches demonstrate specific species of <em>Bacteroides</em> are causally linked to the risk of severe malaria. <em>Plasmodium yoelii</em> hyperparasitemia-resistant mice gavaged with murine-isolated <em>Bacteroides fragilis</em> develop <em>P. yoelii</em> hyperparasitemia. Moreover, <em>Bacteroides</em> are significantly more abundant in Ugandan children with severe malarial anemia than with asymptomatic <em>P. falciparum</em> infection. Human isolates of <em>Bacteroides caccae</em>, <em>Bacteroides uniformis</em>, and <em>Bacteroides ovatus</em> but not <em>Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron</em> caused susceptibility to severe malaria in mice. However, the pathogenic potential of gut <em>Bacteroides</em> towards susceptibility to severe malaria is dependent on additional gut microbiota, indicating a consortium effect in severe malaria. Approaches that target gut <em>Bacteroides</em> may present an opportunity to prevent severe malaria and associated deaths.</p>

Project description:Few genotype-phenotype associations identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been defined mechanistically, precluding thorough assessment of their impact on human health. We conducted an expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping analysis in human erythroblasts and found erythroid-specific eQTLs for ATP2B4, the main calcium ATPase of red blood cells (RBC). The same SNPs were previously associated with mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and susceptibility to severe malaria infection. We showed that Atp2b4-/- mice demonstrate increased MCHC, confirming ATP2B4 as the causal gene at this GWAS locus. Using CRISPR-Cas9, we fine-mapped the genetic signal to an erythroid-specific enhancer bound by GATA1 and TAL1. These results illustrate the importance to combine transcriptome, epigenome, and genome editing approaches in phenotype-relevant cells to characterize non-coding regulatory elements associated with human complex diseases and traits. Our studies suggest ATP2B4 as a potential target to modulate RBC hydration in erythroid disorders and malaria infection.

Project description:Although respiratory distress is a common complication of severe malaria, little is known about the underlying molecular basis of lung dysfunction. Animal models have provided powerful insights into the pathogenesis of severe malaria syndromes such as cerebral malaria; however, no model of malaria-induced lung injury has been definitively established. This work used bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), histopathology and gene expression analysis to examine the development of acute lung injury (ALI) in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA). BAL fluid of PbA-infected C57BL/6 mice revealed a significant increase in IgM and total protein prior to the development of cerebral malaria (CM), indicating disruption of the alveolar-capillary membrane barrier – the physiological hallmark of acute lung injury (ALI). In contrast to sepsis-induced ALI, BAL fluid cell counts remained constant with no infiltration of neutrophils. Histopathology showed septal inflammation without cellular transmigration into the alveolar spaces. Microarray analysis comparing malaria-induced ALI with sepsis-induced ALI identified several common gene ontology groups characterizing ALI in these models, including defense and immune response. Severity of malaria-induced ALI varied in a panel of inbred mouse strains, and development of ALI correlated with peripheral parasite burden but not CM susceptibility. CD36-/- mice, which have decreased parasite lung sequestration, were relatively protected from ALI. In summary, parasite burden and CD36-mediated sequestration in the lung are primary determinants of ALI in experimental murine malaria. Furthermore, differential susceptibility of mouse strains to malaria-induced ALI and CM indicate that distinct genetic determinants likely regulate susceptibility to these two important causes of malaria-associated morbidity and mortality.

Project description:Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is the most complex vitamin and essential for many human gut microbes. However, cobalamin is synthesized only by a limited number of bacteria, making many gut microbes dependent on scavenging to meet their cobalamin requirements. Since bacterial densities in the gut are extremely high, competition for cobalamin is severe, making it a keystone micronutrient that shapes human gut microbial communities. Contrasting with Enterobacteria like Escherichia coli which only have one outer membrane (OM) transporter dedicated to B12 uptake (BtuB), members of the dominant genus Bacteroides often encode several vitamin B12 OM transporters together with a conserved array of surface-exposed B12-binding lipoproteins. Here we show, via X-ray crystallography, cryogenic electron microscopy (cryoEM) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, that the BtuB1 and BtuB2 transporters from the prominent human gut bacterium Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron form stable complexes with the surface-exposed lipoproteins BtuG1 and BtuG2. The lipoproteins cap the external surface of their cognate BtuB transporter and, when open, capture B12 via electrostatic attraction. After B12 capture, the BtuG lid closes, with concomitant transfer of the vitamin to the BtuB transporter and subsequent transport. We propose that TonB-dependent, lipoprotein-assisted small molecule uptake is a general feature of Bacteroides spp. that is important for the success of this genus in colonising the human gut.
