Inorganic polyphosphate from the immunobiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus CRL1505 prevents inflammatory response in the respiratory tract.

ABSTRACT: Lactobacillus (L.) rhamnosus CRL1505 accumulates inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) in its cytoplasm in response to environmental stress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential effects of polyP from the immunobiotic CRL1505 on an acute respiratory inflammation murine animal model induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). First, the presence of polyP granules in the cytoplasm of CRL1505 strain was evidenced by specific staining. Then, it was demonstrated in the intracellular extracts (ICE) of CRL1505 that polyP chain length is greater than 45 phosphate residues. In addition, the functionality of the genes involved in the polyP metabolism (ppk, ppx1 and ppx2) was corroborated by RT-PCR. Finally, the possible effect of the ICE of CRL1505 strain containing polyP and a synthetic polyP was evaluated in vivo using a murine model of acute lung inflammation. It was observed that the level of cytokines pro-inflammatory (IL-17, IL-6, IL-2, IL-4, INF-γ) in serum was normalized in mice treated with ICE, which would indicate that polyP prevents the local inflammatory response in the respiratory tract. The potential application of ICE from L. rhamnosus CRL1505 as a novel bioproduct for the treatment of respiratory diseases is one of the projections of this work.

Project description:The nasal priming with nonviable Lactobacillus rhamnosus CRL1505 (NV1505) or its purified peptidoglycan (PG1505) differentially modulates the respiratory innate immune response in infant mice, improving their resistance to primary respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection and secondary pneumococcal pneumonia. In association with the protection against RSV-pneumococcal superinfection, it was found that NV1505 or PG1505 significantly enhance the numbers of CD11c+SiglecF+ alveolar macrophages (AMs) producing interferon (IFN)-β. In this work, we aimed to further advance in the characterization of the beneficial effects of NV1505 and PG1505 in the context of a respiratory superinfection by evaluating whether their immunomodulatory properties are dependent on AM functions. Macrophage depletion experiments and a detailed study of their production of cytokines and antiviral factors clearly demonstrated the key role of this immune cell population in the improvement of both the reduction of pathogens loads and the protection against lung tissue damage induced by the immunobiotic CRL1505 strain. Studies at basal conditions during primary RSV or S. pneumoniae infections, as well as during secondary pneumococcal pneumonia, brought the following five notable findings regarding the immunomodulatory effects of NV1505 and PG1505: (a) AMs play a key role in the beneficial modulation of the respiratory innate immune response and protection against RSV infection, (b) AMs are necessary for improved protection against primary and secondary pneumococcal pneumonia, (c) the generation of activated/trained AMs would be essential for the enhanced protection against respiratory pathogens, (d) other immune and nonimmune cell populations in the respiratory tract may contribute to the protection against bacterial and viral infections, and (e) the immunomodulatory properties of NV1505 and PG1505 are strain-specific. These findings significantly improve our knowledge about the immunological mechanisms involved in the modulation of respiratory immunity induced by beneficial microbes.

Project description:UnlabelledPneumonia virus of mice (PVM) is a natural rodent pathogen that replicates in bronchial epithelial cells and reproduces many clinical and pathological features of the more severe forms of disease associated with human respiratory syncytial virus. In order to track virus-target cell interactions during acute infection in vivo, we developed rK2-PVM, bacterial artificial chromosome-based recombinant PVM strain J3666 that incorporates the fluorescent tag monomeric Katushka 2 (mKATE2). The rK2-PVM pathogen promotes lethal infection in BALB/c mice and elicits characteristic cytokine production and leukocyte recruitment to the lung parenchyma. Using recombinant virus, we demonstrate for the first time PVM infection of both dendritic cells (DCs; CD11c(+) major histocompatibility complex class II(+)) and alveolar macrophages (AMs; CD11c(+) sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin F(+)) in vivo and likewise detect mKATE2(+) DCs in mediastinal lymph nodes from infected mice. AMs support both active virus replication and production of infectious virions. Furthermore, we report that priming of the respiratory tract with immunobiotic Lactobacillus plantarum, a regimen that results in protection against the lethal inflammatory sequelae of acute respiratory virus infection, resulted in differential recruitment of neutrophils, DCs, and lymphocytes to the lungs in response to rK2-PVM and a reduction from ∼ 40% to <10% mKATE2(+) AMs in association with a 2-log drop in the release of infectious virions. In contrast, AMs from L. plantarum-primed mice challenged with virus ex vivo exhibited no differential susceptibility to rK2-PVM. Although the mechanisms underlying Lactobacillus-mediated viral suppression remain to be fully elucidated, this study provides insight into the cellular basis of this response.ImportancePneumonia virus of mice (PVM) is a natural mouse pathogen that serves as a model for severe human respiratory syncytial virus disease. We have developed a fully functional recombinant PVM strain with a fluorescent reporter protein (rK2-PVM) that permits us to track infection of target cells in vivo. With rK2-PVM, we demonstrate infection of leukocytes in the lung, notably, dendritic cells and alveolar macrophages. Alveolar macrophages undergo productive infection and release infectious virions. We have shown previously that administration of immunobiotic Lactobacillus directly to the respiratory mucosa protects mice from the lethal sequelae of PVM infection in association with profound suppression of the virus-induced inflammatory response. We show here that Lactobacillus administration also limits infection of leukocytes in vivo and results in diminished release of infectious virions from alveolar macrophages. This is the first study to provide insight into the cellular basis of the antiviral impact of immunobiotic L. plantarum.
