Gene expression in the small intestine of mice colonized with Pseudomonas aeruginosa

ABSTRACT: Celiac disease (CeD) is a food sensitivity characterized by a breakdown of oral tolerance to gluten proteins in genetically predisposed individuals, although the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. To evaluate a functional role of bacterial proteases in CeD, we colonized germ-free or clean SPF mice with P.aeruginosa PA14 or P.aeruginosa PA14 disrupted in lasB gene (elastase). We show gluten-independent, PAR-2 mediated upregulation of inflammatory pathways by LasB in C57BL/6 mice without villus blunting. In mice expressing CeD risk genes, P. aeruginosa elastase synergized with gluten to induce more severe inflammation that was associated with moderate villus blunting.

Human gut derived-organoids as model to study gluten response and effects of microbiota bioproducts in celiac disease

Project description:Celiac disease (CeD) is an intestinal immune-mediated disorder caused by gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed subjects. CeD is characterized by villous atrophy, altered intestinal permeability, crypt hyperplasia and innate and adaptive immune response. This study aimed to develop and validate the use of intestinal organoids from celiac patients to study CeD. A repository of organoids from duodenum of non-celiac and celiac patients was generated and characterized accordingly to standard procedures. RNA-seq analysis was employed to study the global gene expression program of CeD (n=3) and non-CeD (n=3) organoids sets. While the three celiac derived organoids shared similar transcriptional signatures the NC samples set appeared more heterogeneous. We found 486 genes differentially expressed between the two groups. Of them, 299 genes were downregulated (FC<2; FDR<0.05) and 187 were upregulated in CeD (FC >2; FDR<0.05). We observed CeD organoids had significantly altered expression of genes associated with barrier function, innate immunity, and stem cell function.

Genome-wide analysis of B and T cell gene expression during a six-week gluten challenge in patients with celiac disease

Project description:Dietary gluten proteins (prolamins) from wheat, rye, and barley are the driving forces behind celiac disease, an organ-specific autoimmune disorder that targets both the small intestine and organs outside the gut. In the small intestine, gluten induces inflammation and a typical morphological change of villous atrophy and crypt hyperplasia. Gut lesions improve and heal when gluten is excluded from the diet and the disease relapses when patients consume gluten. Oral immune tolerance towards gluten may be kept for years or decades before breaking tolerance in genetically susceptible individuals. Celiac disease provides a unique opportunity to study autoimmunity and the transition in immune cells as gluten breaks oral tolerance. Seventy-three celiac disease patients on a long-term gluten-free diet ingested a known amount of gluten daily for six weeks. A peripheral blood sample and intestinal biopsies were taken before and six weeks after initiating the gluten challenge. Biopsy results were reported on a continuous numeric scale that measured the villus height to crypt depth ratio to quantify gluten-induced gut mucosal injury. Pooled B and T cells were isolated from whole blood, and RNA was analyzed by DNA microarray looking for changes in peripheral B- and T-cell gene expression that correlated with changes in villus height to crypt depth, as patients maintained or broke oral tolerance in the face of a gluten challenge.

Biopsy proteome scoring to determine mucosal remodeling in celiac disease

Project description:For celiac disease (CeD) the diagnosis and response to treatment is determined by histological evaluation of gut biopsies which depend on proper biopsy orientation and has poor inter-observer reproducibility. Biopsy proteome measurement that reports on the tissue state can be obtained by mass spectrometry (MS) analysis of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue. Here we aimed to transform biopsy proteome data into numerical scores that would give observer-independent measures of mucosal remodeling in CeD. A pipeline was established that employs glass-mounted FFPE sections for MS-based proteome analysis. Proteome data was converted to a numerical score using two different approaches, by calculating a rank-based enrichment score and by training a machine-learning algorithm to calculate a disease-state prediction value. The scoring approaches were compared to each other and to histology using a validation cohort of 18 CeD patients comparing biopsies collected before and after treatment with gluten-free diet (GFD). Biopsies from non-CeD individuals (n = 18) served as controls.

Specific targeting of the common gamma chain blocks cooperative reprogramming of human tissue-resident cytotoxic T lymphocytes by IL-15 and IL-21

Project description:The common gamma chain (γc) is required for productive signaling by interleukin (IL)-15, IL-21 and IL-2, which are critically involved in immune activation and regulation. IL-21 and IL-15 are implicated in the pathogenesis of type-1 diabetes, graft-versus-host disease, and celiac disease (CeD), a gluten-mediated autoimmune-like enteropathy. Attempts to treat type-1 diabetes and graft-versus-host disease with biologics targeting one particular cytokine have failed. Both IL-15 and IL-21 have been suggested to drive activation of cytotoxic T cells (CTL) that are the effectors mediating tissue destruction in CeD and organ-specific autoimmune disorders. We show that the concomitant upregulation of IL-15 and IL-21 occurs only in full-blown CeD with villous atrophy. BNZ-2, a peptide that targets the γc, was able to block the cooperative IL-15/IL-21 mediated transcriptional activation of human tissue-resident intraepithelial CTL. Importantly, this inhibition was specific and did not interfere with IL-2 signaling, a cytokine with known immunoregulatory functions. Moreover, BNZ-2 blocked gluten-induced IFN-γ production in small intestinal organ cultures from CeD patients. These observations identify BNZ-2 as a therapeutic candidate for immune disorders in which IL-15 and IL-21 cooperate to induce CTL-mediated tissue damage.

RNA-sequencing of gluten-reactive and non-reactive T-cells from blood samples of treated CeD patients during a gluten-challenge

Project description:Gluten-specific CD4+ T cells are drivers of celiac disease (CeD). Here we aimed to characterize such cells in blood of treated CeD patients during gluten challenge with comparison to similar cells of untreated disease. Treated CeD patients underwent a 3-day gluten-challenge with blood sampling at baseline and day 6 (d6). Blood cells were stained with HLA-DQ:gluten tetramers (Tetramer). CD4+, gut-homing Tetramer+ and Tetramer- effector-memory T (TEM) cells at d6 were subjected to bulk RNA-seq (n=7).

The interplay between IL-15, gluten and HLA-DQ8 drives the development of coeliac disease in mice

Project description:Coeliac disease (CeD) is a complex, polygenic inflammatory enteropathy with autoimmune features caused by exposure to dietary gluten that occurs in a subset of genetically susceptible HLA-DQ8 and HLA-DQ2 individuals. Attempts to develop a pathophysiologically relevant animal model that develops villous atrophy (VA) have failed. The need to develop non-dietary treatments for this common disorder is now widely recognized, but it is hampered by the lack of a preclinical model. Furthermore, while human studies have led to major advances in our understanding of CeD pathogenesis, direct demonstration of the respective roles of disease-predisposing HLA molecules, and adaptive and innate immunity in the development of tissue damage is missing. To address these unmet needs, we engineered a mouse model that reproduces the dual overexpression of IL-15 in the gut epithelium and the lamina propria (Lp) characteristic of active CeD, expresses the predisposing HLA-DQ8 molecule, and develops VA upon gluten ingestion. We show that overexpression of IL-15 in both the epithelium and Lp is required for development of VA, demonstrating the location-dependent central role of IL-15 in CeD pathogenesis. Furthermore, our study reveals the critical role played by both CD4+ and cytotoxic CD8+ T cells in VA development. Finally, it establishes that HLA-DQ8 is central for tissue destruction, but dispensable for loss of oral tolerance to gluten. This mouse model, by reflecting the complex interplay between gluten, genetics and the IL-15-driven tissue inflammation found in CeD, represents a powerful preclinical model to test new therapeutics and study disease pathogenesis.

Transcriptome of RCD-2 biopsies

Project description:About 5% of celiac disease (CeD) patients do not respond to a gluten-free diet and progress to refractory celiac disease (RCD), a severe progression that is characterized by infiltration of intraepithelial T-lymphocytes (IELs). RCD type II (RCDII) patients show clonal expansions of IELs that result in a poor prognosis and a high mortality rate through development of aggressive enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma.<br>RCDII has a poor prognosis (5-year survival rate <50%) also because of the development of enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma. Diagnosis of RCDII is complex and involves a combination of several techniques such as multiplex PCR analysis to determine the clonality of T-cell receptor gene rearrangements and immunohistochemistry or flow-cytometry to define the cell surface markers of IELs. Therefore studying the genetics and genomics of RCD2 susceptibility may provide novel insights into mechanistic basis for RCD2 development. The aim of this experiment was to profile the global gene expression changes in order to understand the dysregulated pathways in RCD2 biopsies and to uncover downstream pathways affected by RCD2 genetic susceptibility loci. <br>All patients were diagnosed with RCD2 and gut biopsies were collected from these patients to perform microarray based gene expression analysis. RNA from eleven RCD2 biopsy samples were analyzed using Illumina Human Ref8 v1 array.
