Timecourse of doxycycline induction in bitransgenic MTB/TAN, MTB/TOM, and MTB/TWNT1 mice or monotransgenic MTB control mice

ABSTRACT: Genome-wide expression data can provide important insights into normal and pathological cellular processes. However, the ability to use gene expression data to quantitatively assess the activation state of a given signaling pathway or transcriptional network in a sensitive and specific manner remains an important unmet goal. We now describe a computational algorithm, energy-paired scoring (EPS), that satisfies these criteria by predicting pathway activity using gene-gene interactions within a pathway signature in a manner analogous to the estimation of energy generated by two charged particles, as described by Coulomb’s law. We demonstrate the ability of EPS to: quantitatively assess pathway activation levels in vivo and in vitro; accurately estimate the extent of pathway inhibition achieved by gene knockdown; sensitively detect crosstalk between endogenous signaling pathways in vivo; and accurately identify compounds capable of inhibiting selected signaling pathways. Our findings indicate that EPS can accurately predict pathway activity over a wide dynamic range based upon gene expression data sets derived from multiple profiling platforms, as well as different species, tissues and cell types in both in vitro and in vivo contexts Four timepoints (0h, 24h, 48h and 96h) with 3 replicates per timepoint of doxycycline induction for MTB (Control), MTB/TAN, MTB/TOM and MTB/TWNT1

Impact of Wnt6 knockout in Mtb infected murine BMDM

Project description:In view of emerging drug-resistant tuberculosis, host directed therapies are urgently needed to improve treatment outcomes with currently available anti-tuberculosis therapies. One option is to interfere with the formation of lipid-laden “foamy” macrophages in the infected host. Here, we provide evidence that WNT6, a member of the evolutionary conserved WNT signaling pathway, promotes foam cell formation by regulating key lipid metabolic genes including acetyl-CoA carboxylase-2 (ACC2) during pulmonary TB. In addition, we demonstrate that Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) facilitates its intracellular growth and dissemination in the host by exploiting the WNT6-ACC2 pathway. Using genetic and pharmacological approaches, we show that lack of functional WNT6 or ACC2 significantly reduces intracellular TAG levels, Mtb growth and necrotic cell death of macrophages. In combination with the anti-TB drug isoniazid, pharmacological inhibition of ACC2 improved anti-mycobacterial treatment in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, we propose the WNT6-ACC2 signaling pathway as a promising target for a host-directed therapy to reduce intracellular replication of Mtb by modulating neutral lipid metabolism.

Acetate Fermentation facilitates survival of Mtb when respiration is inhibited

Project description:Respiratory ATP-synthesis is at present the only known mechanism for ATP synthesis in Mtb. This makes Mtb particularly vulnerable to inhibition of respiratory ATP synthase inhibitors such as TMC207, a novel compound for treatment of tuberculosis. We now provide first evidence that Mtb possesses a pathway that is fermentative in nature that could compensate lack of respiratory ATP synthesis. We identified acetate as a fermentation product in Mtb. Production of acetate was mediated by phosphotransacetylase (Pta) and acetate kinase (AckA). In acetate fermenting Mtb cultures, ATP levels remained stable despite inhibition of respiratory ATP synthase. Deletion of the PtaAckA pathway in Mtb decreased ATP content and impaired survival. This study provides evidence that in Mtb substrate level phosphorylation can compensate lack of oxidative phosphorylation, and thus facilitates survival of Mtb in the absence of respiration. Acetate fermentation contributes to adaptation to respiration-limiting conditions, and plays an important role in the emerging field of fermentative metabolism of Mtb. We performed DNA microarray analysis to validate the reduction of oxygen concentration by comparing aerobic and hypoxic cultures. RNA was prepared from Mtb after two days of cultivation in aerobic and in hypoxic cultures. At each condition, Mtb were cultured in medium supplemented with glycerol and glucose. Labelled cDNA from three independent experiments was subjected to array analysis.

The effect of Mtb aggregation on monocyte-derived macrophage transcription profiles

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) bacilli readily aggregate. We previously reported that Mtb aggregates lead to phagocyte death and subsequent efficient replication in the dead infected cells. Here we examined the transcriptional response of human monocyte derived macrophages to phagocytosis of aggregated Mtb relative to phagocytosis of non-aggregated single or multiple bacilli. Infection with aggregated Mtb led to an early upregulation of pro-inflammatory associated genes and enhanced TNF-alpha signaling via the NFkappaB pathway. These pathways were significantly more highly upregulated relative to infection with single or multiple non-aggregated bacilli per cell.

Transcription profiling of mouse NMuMG cells after MTB/TRAS short-term induction, tumor, and TGFbeta treatment

Project description:To test whether SVD regression is sufficiently sensitive to detect activation of a secondary, endogenous pathway as it occurs following ectopic manipulation of a strong primary pathway by focusing on the relationship between the Ras and TGFÎ² signaling pathways. Experiment Overall Design: Bitransgenic MTB/TRAS mice in an FVB/N background were generated by crossing MTB and TRAS mice. To induce oncogenic v-H-Ras expression, 6-week old MTB/TRAS female mice were administered 2 mg/ml doxycycline with 5% sucrose in their drinking water. Mammary tissue was harvested at different post-induction time points and snap frozen. To generate Ras-driven tumors, MTB/TRAS mice were administered 0.012 mg/ml doxycycline in their drinking water and monitored for tumor formation. Mice were sacrificed when tumors reached ~1 cm and tissue was snap frozen. The non-transformed murine mammary epithelial cell line, NMuMG, was cultured in Dulbeccoâs modified Eagleâs medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% bovine calf serum, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, and 2 mM L-glutamine. For TGFÎ² treatment, cells were cultured in low serum medium (0.5%) overnight followed by treatment with 5 ng/ml TGF-Î²1 or TGF-Î²3 (Sigma). After 24 hr, RNA and protein were harvested for microarray hybridization or biochemical analysis.
