Project description:The aim of this study is to compare the transcriptomic profile of colonic intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) at steady-state, and in several models of colitis: in naive wild-type C57BL/6 mice, in wild-type C57BL/6 mice treated for 7 days with 3% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) in drinking water, in Il10-/- C57BL/6 mice and Il10-/- C57BL/6 mice with IEC-specific Rabgef1 deletion. Colonic IECs were isolated and FACS-sorted, then subjected tu bulk RNA-seq.

Project description:The microenvironment of injured mucosa has important effects on intestinal stem cell self-renewal and reconstruction of epithelial barrier function in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the precise status of the interactions between intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) injury, particularly intestinal crypt absence, and microenvironment in IBD is not completely understood. We identified miR-494-3p as important for protection of colonic stemness in intestinal inflammation colonic organoid culture. A novel cytokine-cytokine receptor, EDA-A2/EDA2R, could suppress colonic stemness and epithelial repair during IBD. During intestinal inflammation, high level of LP macrophage-derived EDA-A2 inhibited the nuclear β-catenin/c-Myc axis and organoid growth by targeting EDA2R in colonic crypt stem cells. We further demonstrated that the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-6 are capable of stimulating macrophages to release EDA-A2 during colitis. Secondly, we identified the cross-talk among IECs, colonic crypts, and lamina propria (LP) macrophages in miR-494-3p-mediated colitis. Furthermore, our study showed that miR-494-3p deficiency in IECs promoted LP macrophage recruitment and M1 activation in DSS-induced colitis mice. In addition, we identified miR-494-3p as critical to dampening IEC injury; specifically, miR-494-3p inhibited inflammation-induced IKKβ/NF-κB activation by targeting the IKKβ 3’UTR in IECs. As such, administration of adequate amounts of a miR-494-3p agomire attenuate colitis in vivo. Consistent with this inference, we showed that miR-494-3p levels were decreased in colonic crypts and serum in colitis mice, and loss of miR-494 potentiated the severity of colonic colitis. Our clinical data on the interactions between miR-494-3p levels in serum exosomes & colonic tissues and associated outcomes support the clinical relevance of miR-494-3p in IBD. The miR-494-3p agomir system, which we designed permits local delivery in vivo in this study, significantly ameliorated the severity of colonic colitis. Our findings no only uncover a miR-494-3p-mediated cross-talk mechanism by which inflamed colonic LP macrophages integrate signals from IECs to regulate colonic stemness and colonic epithelial repair/homeostasis. The miR-494-3p agomir may serve as a potential therapeutic approach in IBD.

Project description:The intestinal epithelium is a key physical interface that integrates dietary and microbial signals to regulate nutrient uptake and mucosal homeostasis. Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) have a high turnover rate driven by the death of terminally differentiated cells with concurrent stem cell proliferation, a process critical for maintaining intestinal homeostasis and protecting against mucosal inflammation. The transcriptional programs that regulate IEC quiescence, proliferation, and differentiation have been well-characterized. However, how gene expression networks critical for IEC functions are regulated at the post-transcriptional level during homeostasis or inflammatory disease remains poorly understood. Herein, we show that a conserved family of microRNAs, miR-181, is significantly downregulated in IECs from patients with inflammatory bowel disease and mice with chemical-induced colitis. Strikingly, we showed that miR-181 expression within IECs, but not the hematopoietic system, is required for protection against the development of severe colonic inflammation in response to epithelial injury in mice. Mechanistically, we showed that miR-181 expression increases the proliferative capacity of IECs, likely through the regulation of Wnt signaling, independently of gut microbiota composition. As epithelial reconstitution is crucial for restoring intestinal homeostasis after injury, the miR-181 family represents a potential novel therapeutic target in IECs for protection against severe intestinal inflammation.

Project description:We generated conditional knockout of MHCII in intestinal epithelial cells in C57BL/6 mice (I-AbΔIEC) and compared their colonic transcriptome in control and Citrobacter rodentium infected mice. I-AbWT or I-AbΔIEC mice were orally gavaged with Citrobacter rodentium DBS100

Project description:PRMT5 is a type II arginine methyltransferase enzyme that is abundantly expressed in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) of the colon. Here, we compared the transcriptome of the colonic epithelium from wildtype and PRMT5 heterozygote mice under steady state. We found that PRMT5-regulated genes are involved in anti-microbial responses and immune signaling.

Project description:We profiled transcriptome and accessible chromatin landscapes in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) from mice reared in the presence or absence of microbiota. We show that regional differences in gene transcription along the intestinal tract were accompanied by major alterations in chromatin organization. Surprisingly, we discovered that microbiota modify host gene transcription in IECs without significantly impacting the accessible chromatin landscape. Instead, microbiota regulation of host gene transcription might be achieved by differential expression of specific TFs and enrichment of their binding sites in nucleosome depleted CRRs near target genes. Our results suggest that the chromatin landscape in IECs is pre-programmed by the host in a region-specific manner to permit responses to microbiota through binding of open CRRs by specific TFs. mRNA and accessible chromatin (DNase-seq) profiles from colonic and ileal IECs were compared between conventionally-raised (CR), germ-free (GF), and conventionalized (CV) C57BL/6 mice.

Project description:Tristetraprolin (TTP), encoded by the Zfp36 gene, is a zinc-finger protein that regulates RNA stability primarily through association with 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs) of target mRNAs. While TTP is expressed abundantly in the intestines, its function in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) is unknown. Here we used a cre-lox system to remove Zfp36 in the mouse epithelium to uncover a role for TTP in IECs and to identify target genes in these cells. While TTP was largely dispensable for establishment and maintenance of the colonic epithelium, we found an expansion of the proliferative zone and an increase in goblet cell numbers in the colon crypts of Zfp36ΔIEC mice. Furthermore, through RNA-sequencing of transcripts isolated from the colons of Zfp36fl/fl and Zfp36ΔIEC mice, we found that expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNos or Nos2) was elevated in TTP-knockout IECs. We demonstrate that TTP interacts with AU-rich elements in the Nos2 3’UTR and suppresses Nos2 expression. In comparison to control Zfp36fl/fl mice, Zfp36ΔIEC mice were less susceptible to dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced acute colitis. Together, these results demonstrate that TTP targets Nos2 expression in IECs and aggravates acute colitis.
