Project description:The development and severity of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and other chronic inflammatory conditions can be influenced by host genetic and environmental factors, including signals derived from commensal bacteria. However, the mechanisms that integrate these diverse cues remain undefined. Here we demonstrate that intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) isolated from IBD patients exhibit decreased expression of the epigenome-modifying enzyme histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3). Further, genome-wide analyses of murine IECs that lack HDAC3 (HDAC3?IEC) revealed that HDAC3 deficiency resulted in dysregulated gene expression coupled with alterations in histone acetylation. Critically, conventionally-housed HDAC3?IEC mice demonstrated loss of Paneth cells, impaired IEC function and alterations in the composition of intestinal commensal bacteria. In addition, HDAC3?IEC mice exhibited significantly increased susceptibility to intestinal damage and inflammation, indicating that epithelial expression of HDAC3 plays a central role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Strikingly, rederivation of HDAC3?IEC mice into germ-free conditions revealed that dysregulated IEC gene expression, Paneth cell homeostasis, and intestinal barrier function were largely restored in the absence of commensal bacteria. Collectively, these data indicate that the HDAC3 is a critical factor that integrates commensal bacteria-derived signals to calibrate epithelial cell responses required to establish normal host-commensal relationships and maintain intestinal homeostasis. In this study, we performed gene expression profiling to examine how the transcriptional profiles in primary live, EpCAM+ IECs from the large intestine differed between control HDAC3FF mice (3 biological replicates) and IEC-intrinsic knockout HDAC3?IEC mice (3 biological replicates).

Project description:The role of Tfr1 in non-erythroid tissues remains elusive due to the embryonic lethality of the Tfr1 global knockout mouse model. To bypass this problem, we generated a mouse model in which Tfr1 was conditionally deleted in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). These mice developed severe IEC disruption, characterized by blunted villi, edema, loss of proliferative intervillus IECs, accumulation of lipids, and early neonatal lethality. Strikingly, a wide range of genes associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition were highly upregulated in IEC lacking Tfr1. Additionally, candidate vesicular transport and sorting genes implicated in lipid absorption and trafficking were downregulated. Surprisingly, the presence of a mutant allele of Tfr1, which is unable to bind to iron-loaded transferrin, was capable of rescuing the lethality, intestinal epithelial homeostasis, and proliferation in a majority of the Tfr1 conditional knockout mice. 9 samples (3 wildtype, 3 knockout, 3 rescue) were prepared from the intestinal epithelial cells isolated from the small intestine and proximal colon.

Project description:The aim of this study is to compare the transcriptomic profile of colonic intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) at steady-state, and in several models of colitis: in naive wild-type C57BL/6 mice, in wild-type C57BL/6 mice treated for 7 days with 3% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) in drinking water, in Il10-/- C57BL/6 mice and Il10-/- C57BL/6 mice with IEC-specific Rabgef1 deletion. Colonic IECs were isolated and FACS-sorted, then subjected tu bulk RNA-seq.

Project description:Death of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) is important in the pathological process of intestinal inflammatory diseases. TNF acts as one pathogenic driver for inducing IEC death and substantial intestinal inflammation. However, the physiological protective mechanisms for suppressing TNF-induced IEC death remain poorly understood. Here, we report that EF-hand domain-containing protein D2 (EFHD2), highly expressed in normal intestine tissues but decreased in intestinal biopsy samples of ulcerative colitis patients, protects the intestinal epithelium from TNF-induced IEC apoptosis. EFHD2 inhibits TNF-induced apoptosis in primary IECs and intestinal organoids (enteroids). Mice deficient of Efhd2 in IECs exhibit excessive IEC death and exacerbated experimental colitis. Mechanistically, EFHD2 interacts with Cofilin to suppress the phosphorylation of Cofilin, leading to the inhibition of TNF receptor Ⅰ (TNFR1) internalization and TNF-induced apoptosis. Our findings define EFHD2 as an endogenous suppressor of IEC death to protect intestine inflammation, providing new insight to the regulation of death receptor signaling and control of intestinal inflammatory diseases.

Project description:Crohn’s disease (CD) is associated with multiple Paneth cell dysfunctions such as altered antimicrobial secretion that relies on autophagy - an essential process controlling the turnover of cellular components. Genome-wide association studies have linked CD to mutations in the ATG16l1 gene, encoding an important component of the autophagy machinery. Patients carrying the ATG16l1 CD risk allele have Paneth cell abnormalities, as reproduced in Atg16l1-deficient mouse models. However, the direct effect of the ATG16L1-deficiency and autophagy-impairment in Paneth cells has not been analysed in detail. To investigate this, we generated a mouse model lacking ATG16L1 specifically in intestinal epithelial cells (Atg16l1△IEC) making these cells impaired in autophagy. Using a 3D small intestinal organoid culture model, which we enriched for Paneth cells and compared the proteomic profiles of organoids derived from the wild-type (WT) and the Atg16l1△IEC mice. We used an integrated computational approach combining protein-protein interaction networks, list of proteins potentially targeted by autophagy and functional information on the proteins with altered protein levels to identify the mechanistic link between autophagy-impairment and disrupted cellular process. 198 (70%) of the 284 altered proteins were more abundant in autophagy-impaired organoids than WT organoids that could be due to a reduced protein turnover. Combining the proteomic dataset with the potential target proteins of selective autophagy proteins revealed that 116 (41%) of the differentially abundant proteins could rely on autophagy-mediated turnover. Taken together, our results suggest that proteins with increased levels in autophagy-impaired background require an autophagy-mediated turnover mechanism, and that their altered levels in CD could affect key cellular processes. Consequently, we pointed out the importance of autophagy in controlling the turnover of proteins relevant in key Paneth cell functions such as exocytosis, apoptosis and DNA damage repair. Our study unravels autophagy-dependent cellular processes of Paneth cells that not directly relies on the autophagy process, rather than a selective protein turnover mechanism. The identified proteins and processes open new avenues for targeted, cell type-specific therapeutic interventions in CD.

Project description:Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) form a primary barrier against microbial invasion. Prior studies of enteric pathogens have indicated that IEC defense mechanisms are distinct from those of other cell types. For example, antiviral defense of IECs depends on type III interferon whereas most cell types depend on type I IFN. Interferon regulatory factors (IRFs) are a family of transcription factors with well-described roles in stimulation of IFN cytokines, but IRF6 is unique in its preferential expression by epithelial lineages. IRF6 has primarily been studied in epidermal development, but has relatively unknown roles in the intestinal epithelium. Here, we found that Irf6 KO regulated IFN-stimulated antiviral immunity of IECs but had no effect on macrophages. RNseq analysis of Irf6 KO cells showed significant differences in the IFN-stimulated gene expression program that correlated with the magnitude of antiviral gene stimulation. We also found significant baseline phenotypic and transcriptional changes in Irf6 KO IECs, with reduced rate of growth and preturbation of growth and differentiation pathway genes. Knockout of Irf6 in primary IEC organoids also resulted in slower growth and smaller size. Transcriptional analysis of Irf6 KO organoids indicated reduced expression of genes in the epithelial differentiation pathwya, including Wnt and Notch pathway genes, as well as increased expression of a subset of IFN-stimulated genes. These data indicate a previously unappreciated role of Irf6 in shaping the IEC transcriptome, including baseline epithelial development genes and IFN-stimulated genes.
