NF-κB1 (p50) impairs macrophage driven inflammatory response of the host against Helicobacter pylori infection

ABSTRACT: In the present study, we observed spontaneous gastritis in 10-12 week old NF-κB1—/— mice with increased level of pro-inflammatory cytokines in gastric tissues. The NF-κB1—/— bone marrow derived macrophages showed increased level of cytokines which further exacerbated with H. pylori infection. To map the contribution of macrophages in the spontaneous gastritis, we performed comparative transcriptome analysis of NF-κB1—/— mice gastric macrophage and H. pylori treated macrophages. The transcriptome analysis showed an upregulation of innate immune response genes in NF-κB1—/— gastric macrophages, but not in H. pylori activated murine macrophages. Network analysis identified STAT1/TLR7/TLR13 as a key regulator and inhibition of STAT1 activation attenuated exacerbated innate immune response. NF-κB1—/— mice after infection with H. pylori showed increased histological gastritis and reduced level of H. pylori colonization. Our study indicates that H. pylori-mediated up-regulation of NF-κB1 mitigates host immune response and promotes chronic colonization of the pathogen.

Project description:The model is first model of tissue level cellular immune responses to H. pylori in the publication, "Modeling the role of lanthionine synthetase C-like 2 (LANCL2) in the modulation of immune responses to Helicobacter pylori infection" in PlosOne by Leber, Bassaganya-Riera, Tubau-Juni, Zoccoli-Rodriguez, Viladomiu, Abedi, Lu, and Hontecillas. Abstract: Immune responses to Helicobacter pylori are orchestrated through complex balances of host-bacterial interactions, including inflammatory and regulatory immune responses across scales that can lead to the development of the gastric disease or the promotion of beneficial systemic effects. While inflammation in response to the bacterium has been reasonably characterized, the regulatory pathways that contribute to preventing inflammatory events during H. pylori infection are incompletely understood. To aid in this effort, we have generated a computational model incorporating recent developments in the understanding of H. pylori-host interactions. Sensitivity analysis of this model reveals that a regulatory macrophage population is critical in maintaining high H. pylori colonization without the generation of an inflammatory response. To address how this myeloid cell subset arises, we developed a second model describing an intracellular signaling network for the differentiation of macrophages. Modeling studies predicted that LANCL2 is a central regulator of inflammatory and effector pathways and its activation promotes regulatory responses characterized by IL-10 production while suppressing effector responses. The predicted impairment of regulatory macrophage differentiation by the loss of LANCL2 was simulated based on multiscale linkages between the tissue-level gastric mucosa and the intracellular models. The simulated deletion of LANCL2 resulted in a greater clearance of H. pylori, but also greater IFNγ responses and damage to the epithelium. The model predictions were validated within a mouse model of H. pylori colonization in wild-type (WT), LANCL2 whole body KO and myeloid-specific LANCL2-/- (LANCL2Myeloid) mice, which displayed similar decreases in H. pylori burden, CX3CR1+ IL-10-producing macrophages, and type 1 regulatory (Tr1) T cells. This study shows the importance of LANCL2 in the induction of regulatory responses in macrophages and T cells during H. pylori infection.
