A glance over drug detoxification systems through the transcriptomic profiling of Mycobacterium tuberculosis during lipid metabolism

ABSTRACT: Tuberculosis (TB) is currently the number one killer among infectious diseases worldwide. Lipids are abundant molecules during the infectious cycle of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and studies better mimicking its actual metabolic state during pathogenesis are needed. Though most studies have focused on the mycobacterial lipid metabolism under standard conditions (carbon source, drugs, stress), little is known about the transcriptome of Mtb in a lipid environment. Here we determine the transcriptome of Mtb H37Rv in a lipid-rich environment (mixture of cholesterol, palmitic, stearic and oleic acids), under aerobic and hypoxic conditions, using RNAseq technology. Lipids significantly induced the expression of 368 genes. A main core lipid response was observed involving efflux systems, iron caption and sulfur reduction. In co-expression with ncRNAs and other genes discussed below, may act coordinately to prepare the machinery conferring drug tolerance and increasing a persistent population. Our findings could be useful to tag relevant pathways for the development of new drugs, vaccines and new strategies to control TB.

Whole Genome Sequence Analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains from Patients in Campania Region

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the deadliest infectious disorders in the world. To effectively TB manage, an essential step is to gain insight into the lineage of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) strains and the distribution of drug resistance. Although the Campania region is declared a cluster area for the infection, to contribute to the effort to understand TB evolution and transmission, still poorly known, we have generated a dataset of 159 genomes of MTB strains, from Campania region collected during 2018-2021, obtained from the analysis of whole genome sequence data. The results show that the most frequent MTB lineage is the 4 according for 129 strains (81.11%). Regarding drug resistance, 139 strains (87.4%) were classified as multi susceptible, while the remaining 20 (12.58%) showed drug resistance. Among the drug-resistance strains, 8 were isoniazid-resistant MTB (HR-MTB), 7 were resistant only to one antibiotic (3 were resistant only to ethambutol and 3 isolate to streptomycin while one isolate showed resistance to fluoroquinolones), 4 multidrug-resistant MTB, while only one was classified as pre-extensively drug-resistant MTB (pre-XDR). This dataset expands the existing available knowledge on drug resistance and evolution of MTB, contributing to further TB-related genomics studies to improve the management of TB infection.

Macrophage responses to MDR M.tuberculosis infection

Project description:The emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains, resistant to the frontline anti-tubercular drugs rifampicin and isoniazid, forces treatment with less effective and toxic second-line drugs and stands to derail TB control efforts. However, the immune response to MDR Mtb infection remains poorly understood. Here, we determined the RNA transcriptional profile of in vitro generated macrophages to infection with either drug susceptible Mtb HN878 or MDR Mtb W_7642 infection.

Tuberculosis resistance protein TOLLIP controls immune pathology by resolving the integrated stress response in alveolar macrophages

Project description:A functional polymorphism responsible for TOLLIP deficiency is associated with increased tuberculosis risk. However, TOLLIP’s role in TB pathogenesis is unknown. Tollip-/- mice developed severe Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) disease, characterized by macrophage and T cell inflammation from multiple cell populations alongside foam cell formation and lipid accumulation. Tollip-/- alveolar macrophages (AM) selectively accumulated lipid and underwent necrosis in an autonomous manner. Transcriptional and protein analysis analysis of Mtb-infected, Tollip-/- AM demonstrated increased EIF2 signaling, a key regulator of the integrated stress response (ISR) to variable environmental conditions. The ISR, inflammation, and lipid accumulation were linked, as incubation of the Mtb lipid mycolic acid with Mtb-infected Tollip-/- AM led to ISR activation and Mtb replication. Correspondingly, ISRIB, a small-molecule ISR inhibitor, selectively reduced Mtb intracellular carriage in AM and improved Mtb control, overcoming the inflammatory phenotypeinflammation. Targeting the ISR broadly improves Mtb control and immunopathology, offering a promising target for host-directed tuberculosis therapy.

Lung epithelial signaling mediates early vaccine-induced CD4+ T cell activation and Mtb control

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death due to a single infectious agent. The development of a TB vaccine that induces durable and effective immunity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection is urgently needed. Complete and early Mtb control can be induced in M. bovis Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccinated hosts when the innate immune response is targeted to generate effective vaccine-induced immunity. In the present study, we show that the superior and early Mtb control that is mediated by innate activation of DCs is associated with mucosal localization of clonal activated vaccine-induced CD4+ T cells in the lung. Our studies also show that the lung epithelial cell signaling through the activation of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NFKB pathway is critical for the mucosal localization of activated vaccine-induced CD4+ T cells for rapid Mtb control. Thus, our study provides novel insights into the immune mechanisms that can overcome TB vaccine bottlenecks and provide early rapid Mtb control.

Protein composition of circulating exosomes depend on tuberculosis disease state

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease that is a primary cause of mortality and illness in around a quater of the world' population particular in low income nations. The disease most commonly affects lung, but pathogens can also be found in other parts of the body. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is the etiologic agent of TB and its ability to penetrate immune cells and develop a niche by beating the host's defense mechanism is crucial to its pathogenic sucess. Mtb has a diverse lipid and protein spectrum. Understanding the host-pathogen-interplay in active TB will have a substantial impact in understanding molecular mechanisms of Mtb infection and guide the development of vaccination, diagnostics and therapy response monitoring.

Proteomic analyses of Mycobacterium tuberculosis associated sputum and plasma

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world’s major infectious diseases affecting nations with limited public health resources. Multidrug resistance development has seriously compromised therapeutic treatment choices. The pathology of latent TB shows evidence of a reservoir of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in the lungs of affected individuals. If the pathogen is contained by the immune system, no overt disease symptoms occur. The environmental and internal triggers leading to disease reactivation are not well understood. Proteomic investigations of blood plasma and sputum derived from subjects with active TB versus latent TB versus healthy individuals may yield new biomarkers and, when surveying larger longitudinally monitored cohorts, may discriminate infection outcomes in an endemic setting.

Changes in the Membrane-Associated Proteins of Exosomes Released from Human Macrophages after Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection - Biotinylated

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is the deadliest infectious disease worldwide. One obstacle hindering the elimination of TB is our lack of understanding of host-pathogen interactions. Exosomes, naturally loaded with microbial molecules, are circulating markers of TB. Changes in the host protein composition of exosomes from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)-infected cells have not been described, can contribute to our understanding of the disease process, and serve as a direct source of biomarkers or as capture targets to enrich for exosomes containing microbial molecules. Here, the protein composition of exosomes from Mtb-infected and uninfected THP-1-derived macrophages was evaluated by tandem-mass-spectrometry and differences in protein abundances were assessed. Our results show that infection with Mtb leads to significant changes in the protein composition of exosomes. Specifically, 41 proteins were significantly more abundant in exosomes from Mtb-infected cells; 63% of these were predicted to be membrane associated. Thus, we used a novel biotinylation strategy to verify protein localization, and confirmed the localization of some of these proteins in the exosomal membrane. Our findings reveal another important scenario where Mtb could be influencing changes in host cells that unveil new features of the host-pathogen interaction and may also be exploited as a source of biomarkers for TB.

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.

Biosensor-integrated transposon mutagenesis reveals rv0158 as a coordinator of redox homeostasis in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (ChIP-Seq)

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is evolutionarily equipped to resist exogenous reactive oxygen species but shows vulnerability to an increase in endogenous ROS (eROS). Since eROS is an unavoidable consequence of aerobic metabolism, understanding how Mtb manages eROS levels is essential yet needs to be characterized. By combining the Mrx1-roGFP2 redox biosensor with transposon mutagenesis, we identified 368 genes (redoxosome) responsible for maintaining homeostatic levels of eROS in Mtb. Integrating redoxosome with a global network of transcriptional regulators revealed a hypothetical protein (Rv0158) as a critical node managing eROS in Mtb. Disruption of rv0158 (rv0158 KO) impaired growth, redox balance, respiration, and metabolism of Mtb on glucose but not on fatty acids. Importantly, rv0158 KO exhibited enhanced growth on propionate, and the Rv0158 protein directly binds to methylmalonyl-CoA, a key intermediate in propionate catabolism. Metabolite profiling, ChIP-Seq, and gene-expression analyses indicate that Rv0158 manages metabolic neutralization of propionate toxicity by regulating the methylcitrate cycle. Disruption of rv0158 enhanced the sensitivity of Mtb to oxidative stress, nitric oxide, and anti-TB drugs. Lastly, rv0158 KO showed poor survival in macrophages and persistence defect in mice. Our results suggest that Rv0158 is a metabolic integrator for carbon metabolism and redox balance in Mtb.

Gene expression analysis of anti-tuberculous drug responses in a whole blood transcriptome model

Project description:There is a need for better tools to evaluate new or repurposed TB drugs. The whole blood bactericidal activity (WBA) assay has been advocated for this purpose. We investigated whether transcriptional responses in the WBA assay resemble TB responses in vivo, and whether the approach might additionally reveal mechanisms of response. Microarray analysis was performed on Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) RNA extracted from whole blood cultures, sputum from TB patients on combination treatment, and drug-free broth cultures
