Transcription profiling of human gastric epithelial (AGS) cells infected with wild type H. pylori (G27) and isogenic mutants in cagA and vacA for 0, 0.5, 3, 6, and 12 hours

ABSTRACT: TC1: gastric epithelial (AGS) cells infected with wild type H. pylori (G27) and isogenic mutants in cagA and vacA for 0, 0.5, 3, 6, and 12 hours. Total RNA was used to make single stranded Cy5 labelled probe and compared to Cy3 labelled probe from uninfected AGS cells. Hybridizations of G27 (trial 4) and cagA- (trial 3) timecourses were done in parallel. A technical replicate of the G27 time course (trial 5) and hybridization of vacA- (trial 3) time course were done in parallel. The cagA 6 and 12 hour time points were technically replicated (trial 4) (the cagA 6 hour sample of trial 3 was lost). TC2: Biological replication and expansion of TC1, using more isogenic mutants and timepoints. AGS cells were mock infected, infected with G27, and isogenic mutants in cagN, cagA, cagE, and a deletion of the cag PAI for 0. 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours. Probe synthesis and hybridization was done as in TC1. Note: there may have been a sample mix-up with PAI 12, swapping it with G27 or cagN 12.

Helicobacter pylori infects over half the world's population and causes a wide range of diseases, including gastritis, peptic ulcer, and two forms of gastric cancer. H. pylori infection elicits a variety of phenotypic responses in cultured gastric epithelial cells, including the expression of proinflammatory genes and changes in the actin cytoskeleton. Both of these responses are mediated by the type IV secretion system (TFSS) encoded by the cag pathogenicity island (cag PAI). We used human cDNA ...[more]

Project description:Helicobacter pylori infection promotes chronic inflammation and plethora of DNA damages including strand breaks, base alterations, point mutations, microsatellite instability and epigenetic alterations. The gastric epitheliaI cells, in order to prevent genomic instability, require an integrous DNA damage repair (DDR) machinery which, however, has been reported to be modulated by the infection. CagA is a major Hp virulence factor that deregulates host cell functions such as proliferation, apoptosis and chromosomal integrity. Its pathogenic activity is partly regulated by tyrosine phosphorylation on repeated EPIYA-motifs. Our aim was to identify putative effects of H. pylori infection and CagA protein on DDR machinery, investigating the transcriptome of AGS cells, infected with P12 H. pylori wild-type strain, as well as, its corresponding CagA knock-out and the CagA phosphorylation-defective mutant following tyrosine (EPIYA) substitution by phenylalanine (EPIFA) in the EPIYA-C motifs. Upon RNA-Sequencing on polyA-selected transcripts we performed Differential Expression Analysis, Pathway Enrichment Analysis and visualization on KEGG Pathway Maps per DDR mechanism. Key DDR components that were observed to be downregulated in a CagA-related manner were validated via Western Blot utilizing AGS and the non-cancerous GES1 cell lines. Transcriptome analysis revealed that a notable number of DDR genes were downregulated during H. pylori infection resulting to potential modulation of Base Excision Repair, Mismatch Repair and a more intricate deregulation of Nucleotide Excision Repair, Homologous Recombination and Non-Homologous End-Joining. CagA contributes to MUTYH, FEN1, APE1, POLD1 and LIG1 downregulation and those observations were verified on the protein expression level, with the exception of APE1 that was on contrary observed to be upregulated. Our study accentuates the role of CagA, as a significant contributor of the H. pylori infection-mediated DDR modulation, disrupting the balance between DNA damage introduction and repair thus favoring genomic instability and potentially contributing to gastric carcinogenesis.

Project description:We used the rhesus macaque model to study the effects of the cag pathogenicity island (cag PAI) on the H. pylori host-pathogen interaction. Specific pathogen free (SPF) monkeys with no prior exposure to H. pylori were experimentally challenged with wild type (WT) H. pylori strain J166 (N=4) or its cag PAI isogenic knockout (KO, N=4). Animals underwent endoscopy before and 1, 4, 8, and 13 wks after challenge. Gastric biopsies were collected for quantitative culture, histopathology, and host gene expression. Quantitative cultures showed that all experimentally challenged animals were infected with WT H. pylori or its isogenic cag PAI KO. Histopathology demonstrated that inflammation and expansion of the lamina propria were attenuated in animals infected with KO compared to WT. Microarray analysis was performed on challenged animals before and 1 and 13 wks after challenge, and on unchallenged control animals (N=4). Of the 119 up-regulated genes in the WT-infected animals, several encode innate antimicrobial; effector proteins, including elafin, siderocalin, DMBT, DUOX2, and several novel paralogues of human defensin-2. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that high level induction of each of these genes was dependent upon the presence of the cag PAI. Immunohistochemistry confirmed increased defensin epithelial cell staining in animals challenged with WT H. pylori compared to either KO-challenged or uninfected control animals. We propose that one function of the cag PAI is to induce an antimicrobial host response that serves to increase the competitive advantage of H. pylori in the gastric niche. Experiment Overall Design: Twelve male and female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) housed at the California National Primate Research Center (CNPRC) were hand raised by nursery staff to obtain Specific Pathogen (Helicobacter pylori) Free (SPF) experimental animals. At six months of age the animals were documented to be uninfected with H. pylori by serology, histology, and cultures of gastric biopsies using methods reported previously (Solnick et al., 1999). Two experimental groups of four SPF animals were challenged with either wild type (WT) H. pylori J166 or an isogenic PAI knockout (KO). A third group of four SPF animals served as uninoculated controls. Monkeys were housed indoors in separate cages throughout the duration of the experiment. All experiments were approved by the Research Advisory Committee of the CNPRC and the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at the University of California.Antrum and corpus stomach biopsies from rhesus macaques infected with wild type Helicobacter pylori J166, isogenic cag-PAI knockout strain, or mock infected were pooled. Biopsies were taken prior to bacterial inoculation and at 1 and 13 weeks post infection. Control biopsies were taken according to the same time line. Four animals were used for each experimental condition.
