Project description:People living with diabetes have an increased risk of developing active tuberculosis. The effects of diabetes (HbA1c ≥6.5%) and intermediate hyperglycaemia (HbA1c 5.7-6.5%), on this transcriptomic signature were investigated by RNA-seq, to enhance understanding of immunological susceptibility in diabetes-tuberculosis comorbidity.Diabetes increased the magnitude of gene expression change in the host transcriptome in tuberculosis, characterised by an increase in innate, and decrease in adaptive immune responses. Strikingly, patients with intermediate hyperglycaemia and tuberculosis exhibited blood transcriptomes much more similar to diabetes-tuberculosis patients than to uncomplicated tuberculosis patients. Aberrant transcriptomes unveil a susceptibility mechanism of DM patients to TB of enhanced inflammation and reduced interferon responses.

Project description:<p>Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are common chronic diseases that threaten human health. Patients with DM are susceptible to PTB, an important factor that aggravates the complications of diabetes. However, the molecular regulatory mechanism underlying the susceptibility of patients with DM to PTB infection remains unknown. Healthy subjects, patients with primary PTB and patients with primary PTB complicated by DM were recruited according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Peripheral whole blood was collected, and alteration profiles and potential molecular mechanisms were further analyzed using integrated bioinformatics analysis of metabolomics and transcriptomics. In this study, transcriptional data revealed that lipocalin 2 (LCN2), defensin alpha 1 (DEFA1), peptidoglycan recognition protein 1 (PGLYRP1) and integrin subunit alpha 2b (ITGA2B) were significantly upregulated, while chloride intracellular channel 3 (CLIC3) significantly down-regulated in PTB-DM by contrast to HC group. Additionally, the IL-17, PI3K-AKT and PPAR signaling pathways are important for PTB infection and regulation of PTB-complicated diabetes. Metabolomic data showed that glycerophospholipid metabolism, carbon metabolism and fat digestion and absorption processes were enriched in the differential metabolic analysis. Finally, integrated analysis of both metabolomic and transcriptomic data indicated that the NOTCH1/JAK/STAT signaling pathway is important in PTB complicated by DM. In conclusion, PTB infection altered the transcriptional and metabolic profiles of patients with DM. Metabolomic and transcriptomic changes were highly correlated in PTB-infected patients with DM. Peripheral metabolite levels may be used as biomarkers for PTB management in patients with DM.</p><p><strong>IMPORTANCE:</strong> The comorbidity of diabetes mellitus (DM) significantly increases the risk of tuberculosis infection and adverse tuberculosis treatment outcomes. Most previous studies have focused on the relationship between the effect of blood glucose control and the outcome of anti-tuberculosis treatment in pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB)-DM; however, early prediction and the underlying molecular mechanism of susceptibility to PTB infection in patients with DM remain unclear. Here, transcriptome sequencing and untargeted metabolomics were performed to elucidatethe key molecules and signaling pathways involved in PTB infection and the susceptibility of patients with diabetes to PTB. Our findings contribute to the development of vital diagnostic biomarkers for PTB or PTB-DM and provide acomprehensive understanding of molecular regulation during disease progression.</p>

Project description:Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a well-known risk factor for tuberculosis (TB). Interestingly, DM is growing to pandemic proportions in TB endemic South-East Asian countries. DM-TB comorbidity induced pathophysiological changes warrants a better understanding to develop effective therapeutics. Tissue metabolomic profiling of streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic animals, infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv, showed dysregulation in the lungs, liver, and kidney. At 3 w.p.i, the tissue (lungs, spleen, liver) bacterial loads were similar between DM-TB and TB. Enrichment analysis of the deregulated liver metabolites (n=20; log2DM-TB/TB>1.0) showed major perturbation in the cysteine-methionine, glycine-serine, branched chain amino acid (BCAA) and fatty acid metabolism. Parallel relative quantification of liver proteome of DM-TB and control mice groups (TB, DM and healthy) identified proteins (n=1833) which showed group specific alteration. Enrichment analysis of significantly altered proteins (n=60; log2DM-TB/TB>1.0) showed major perturbations in cysteine-methionine metabolism corroborating the metabolomics data. In addition, amino acid biosynthesis, retinol metabolism and polyol biosynthetic process were also differentially enriched in DM-TB groups as compared to controls. Furthermore, a global correlation analysis of liver metabolome and proteome data showed strong association between aspartic acid, pyruvic acid, leucine and isoleucine with Cyp450 enzymes (Cyp2a5, Cyp3a11, Cyp4a10, Cyp4a14) involved in retinol metabolism. Whereas iminodiacetic acid, isoleucine and g-aminobutyric acid strongly correlated to enzymes (Cth, Ahcy, Kyat3, Mat1a) involved in the cysteine metabolism. So, targeting the perturbed liver cysteine and retinol metabolism in DM-TB comorbid condition might improve therapeutic outcomes and prevent organ damage.

Project description:The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) contains the essential protein RICTOR and is activated by growth factors. mTORC2 in adipose tissue contributes to regulating glucose and lipid metabolism. In the perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) mTORC2 ensures normal vascular reactivity by controlling expression of inflammatory molecules. To assess whether RICTOR/mTORC2 contributes to blood pressure regulation, we applied a radiotelemetry approach in control and Rictor knockout (RictoraP2KO) mice generated by using adipocyte protein-2 gene promoter-driven CRE recombinase to delete Rictor. 24 hour mean arterial pressure (MAP) was increased in RictoraP2KO mice, and the physiologic decline in MAP during the dark period impaired. In parallel, heart rate and locomotor activity were elevated during the dark period with a pattern similar to blood pressure changes. This phenotype was associated with mild cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, decreased cardiac natriuretic peptides (NPs) and NP receptor expression in adipocytes. Moreover, clock gene expression was dampened or phase-shifted in PVAT. No differences in clock gene expression were observed in the master clock suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), though Rictor gene expression was also lower in brain of RictoraP2KO mice. Thus, the present study underscores the importance of RICTOR/mTORC2 for interactions between vasculature, adipocytes and brain to tune physiological outcomes such as blood pressure and locomotion. Gene expression in PVAT of RictoraP2KO mice was compared to controls (Rictorfl/fl) mice.

Project description:People with diabetes are more likely to develop tuberculosis (TB) and to have poor TB treatment outcomes than those without. We previously showed that blood transcriptomes in people with TB-diabetes (TB-DM) co-morbidity have excessive inflammatory and reduced interferon responses at TB diagnosis. It is unknown whether this persists through treatment, potentially underlying adverse outcomes. Methods Pulmonary TB patients were recruited in South Africa, Indonesia and Romania, and classified as having TB-DM, TB with prediabetes, TB-related hyperglycaemia or uncomplicated TB, based on glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) concentration at TB diagnosis and after 6 months of TB treatment. Gene expression in blood samples collected at diagnosis and at regular intervals throughout treatment was measured by unbiased RNA-Seq and targeted Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification. Results Gene expression was modulated by TB treatment in all groups but to different extents, such that differences remained in people with TB-DM relative to TB-only throughout, including genes involved in innate responses, anti-microbial immunity and the inflammasome. People with prediabetes or with TB-related hyperglycaemia had gene expression more similar to people with TB-DM than TB-only throughout treatment. The overall pattern of change was similar across clinical groups irrespective of glycaemic index, permitting models predictive of TB treatment to be developed. Conclusions The exacerbated transcriptome changes seen in TB-DM take longer to resolve during TB treatment, indicating that prolonged treatment or host-directed therapy may be needed to improve TB treatment outcomes. Development of transcriptome-based biomarker signatures of TB-treatment response should include people with diabetes to be useful across populations.

Project description:Infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) is initiated when an aerosol droplet carrying a few bacilli is inhaled into an alveolus. Alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) (type II and type I) are among the first cells encountered by the infecting bacteria and greatly outnumber macrophages in the alveolus. M. tb replicates dramatically (>20,000 fold) in a “non-migrating” compartment in the lung prior to the development of the cell-mediated immune response in aerosol-infected mice (Wolf AJ, 2008). M. tb DNA has been found in type II AEC in autopsied lung tissue of latently infected individuals (Hernandez-Pando R et. al, 2000; Barrios-Payan J et. al 2012), and M. tb-infected AEC in broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL) and in sputum samples from TB patients indicates the infection of these cells in active as well as latent human TB (Eum SY et. al, 2010). M. tb has been shown to infect and replicate in the human type II AEC line, A549, and passaging of M. tb through A549 increases M. tb invasiveness (Bermudez LE et.al, 2002). In this work, we have used DNA microarray analysis to investigate the transcriptome of M. tb replicating in type II AEC (A549) compared to M. tb grown logarithmically in Middlebrook 7H9 broth media in order to identify M. tb adaptations to this intracellular environment as well as M. tb mechanisms/factors contributing to M. tb replication and increased invasiveness in primary infection.

Project description:Background. Diabetes mellitus (DM) increases tuberculosis (TB) severity. We previously reported baseline blood microarray data in a South Indian pulmonary TB cohort with or without DM, finding no qualitative or quantitative differences in immune pathway gene expression. To extend those observations, we compared baseline and longitudinal blood gene expression in TB patients from South India and Brazil. Methods. Adults with pulmonary TB, with or without DM, were enrolled at two sites in India and one site in Brazil. Blood RNA sequencing (RNAseq) was performed at baseline and treatment months 2 and 6. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and pathway activation were compared by group and site. Comparison was also made with published RNAseq data from the TANDEM study South African and Romanian cohorts. Findings. No consistent pattern of DEGs discriminated TB from TBDM in India or Brazil. Pathway analysis also showed little commonality between sites, although a shared profile of complement activation and matrix degradation was identified in TBDM. Indian participants showed marked longitudinal changes in DEGs and pathways at 2 and 6 months of treatment, whereas these were stable in Brazilian participants. High variability in gene expression was observed between sites at baseline and during treatment. Interpretation. DM exacerbates matrix degradation in TB but is not associated with major immune gene expression or pathway differences compared to TB without DM. Comparison between cohorts in India, Brazil, Romania, and South Africa revealed an unexpectedly high degree of site-specific variation that may reflect population differences in TB pathobiology.

Project description:Although host genetics influences susceptibility to tuberculosis, few genes determining disease outcome have been identified. We hypothesized that macrophages from individuals with different clinical manifestations of tuberculosis infection would have distinct gene expression profiles, and that polymorphisms in these genes may also be associated with susceptibility to TB. We measured gene expression levels of >38,500 genes from ex vivo Mtb- stimulated macrophages in 12 subjects with 3 clinical phenotypes: latent, pulmonary and meningeal tuberculosis (n=4 per group). After identifying differentially expressed genes, we confirmed these results in 34 additional subjects by real-time PCR. We also used a case-control study design to examine whether polymorphisms in differentially regulated genes were associated with susceptibility to these different clinical forms of TB. We compared gene expression profiles in Mtb-stimulated and unstimulated macrophages and identified 1608 and 199 genes that were differentially expressed by >2 and >5-fold, respectively. Using cluster analysis, we identified gene expression patterns that distinguished the different clinical forms of tuberculosis. In an independent sample set of 34 individuals and a subset of highly regulated genes, 90% of the microarray results were confirmed by RT-PCR, including expression levels of CCL1, which distinguished the 3 clinical groups. Furthermore, 6 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CCL1 were found to be associated with TB in a case-control genetic association study with 273 TB cases and 188 controls. To our knowledge, this is the first identification of CCL1 as a gene involved in host susceptibility to TB and the first study to combine microarray and DNA polymorphism studies to identify genes associated with TB susceptibility. These results suggest that genome-wide studies can provide an unbiased method to identify critical macrophage response genes that are associated with different clinical outcomes and that variation in innate immune response genes regulate susceptibility to tuberculosis. Experiment Overall Design: Latent TB (LTB) subjects were healthy nursing staff members who had worked at a tuberculosis hospital, for more than 20 years and were positive in ESAT-6 and CFP-10- specific IFN-ï?§ ELISPOT assays. All subjects with pulmonary (PTB) and meningeal (TBM) disease had been treated and were free of symptoms at the time of venipuncture. Gene expression of monocyte derived macrophages (MDMs) from subjects with three clinical forms of TB including LTB, PTB and TBM (n = 4 in each group) was examined by microarray. MDMs were stimulated either with a whole cell lysate of M. tuberculosis H37Rv or PBS for 4 hours. RNA expression was analyzed using a Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (Affymetrix, USA) which contains probe sets for 47,000 transcripts including 38,500 well-characterized human genes.
