The taste receptor TAS1R3 regulates small intestinal tuft cell homeostasis

ABSTRACT: Tuft cells are an epithelial cell subset critical for initiating type 2 immune responses to parasites and protozoa in the small intestine. To respond to these stimuli, intestinal tuft cells use taste chemosensory signaling pathways, but the role of taste receptors in type 2 immunity is poorly understood. Here, we show that the taste receptor TAS1R3, which detects sweet and umami in the tongue, also regulates tuft cell responses in the distal small intestine. BALB/c mice, which have an inactive form of TAS1R3, as well as Tas1r3-deficient C57BL6/J mice both have severely impaired responses to tuft cell-inducing signals in the ileum including the protozoa Tritrichomonas muris and succinate. In contrast, TAS1R3 is not required to mount an immune response to the helminth Heligmosomoides polygyrus, which infects the proximal small intestine. Examination of uninfected Tas1r3-/- mice revealed a modest reduction in the number of tuft cells in the proximal small intestine but a severe decrease in the distal small intestine at homeostasis. Together, these results suggest that TAS1R3 influences intestinal immunity by shaping the epithelial cell landscape at steady state.

Transcription profiling of rat small intestine and colon samples treated with amoxicillin

Project description:Whole tissues corresponding to the proximal and distal small intestine and to the colon were dissected from each rat, washed with ice-cold saline solution and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. Rats were either control or treated with Amoxicillin (100mg/kg/day). Small intestine was divided in two identical length considered as the proximal and distal part. In each intestinal part 1 cm of tissue was taken in the middle of this part to perform the RNA extraction and then the GeneArray analysis.

Tissue specific gene expression of epithelial tuft cells from small intestine and gallbladder in mouse

Project description:Rare chemosensory epithelial cells called tuft cells have known roles in small intestinal regulation of type 2 cytokine producing Group 2 innate lymphoid cells. To understand the phenotype of tuft cells in another tissue, the extrahepatic biliary tree, we performed RNAseq analysis on tuft cells and non-tuft epithelial cells from small intestine and gallbladder of the mouse.

Gene expression patterns in developing intestinal organoids exposed to prolonged FGF4- and Wnt-signaling

Project description:Based on the ability of FGF and/or WNT signaling to control posterior fate and intestinal lineage commitment, several groups have reported that treating mouse or human Pluripotent Stem Cell (PSC) derived definitive endoderm (DE) with small molecules or ligands that activate WNT signaling, or a combination of WNT and FGF signaling can induce an intestinal fate in human DE. In this current study, we leverage hESC derived human intestinal organoids (HIOs) to test the hypothesis that the duration of exposure to high levels of FGF and WNT signaling controls regional intestinal identity, with shorter durations generating intestine similar to the proximal duodenum, and longer durations distalizing HIOs to become similar to jejunum/ileum. Our results demonstrate that exposing human definitive endoderm (DE) cultures to short or long incubations of media that activate WNT and FGF siganling results in gene and protein expression profiles that are consistent with tissue that has been patterned into proximal (duodenum) or distal (ileum) small intestine, respectively.

Distinct populations of CD11b+ IRF4+ dendritic cells drive Th2 responses in the small intestine and colon

Project description:We have identified the dendritic cell (DC) populations that are sufficient for the induction of T helper 2 (Th2) cell responses in the intestine against both live Trichuris muris worms, and inert Schistosoma mansoni eggs. Antigen-specific Th2 responses did not develop after deletion of IRF4 in DCs, yet IRF4-deficient DCs were not functionally affected. Instead, IRF4flox/flox CD11c-cre mice had fewer CD11b+ migrating DCs, and fewer DCs carrying parasite antigen from the intestine. Adoptive transfer of purified DCs from infected animals directly into intestinal afferent lymphatics enabled us to identify that CD11b+CD103+ DCs were central to the induction of Th2 responses in the small intestine, whereas CD11b+CD103- DCs were more important in the colon. Similarly, after pulsing with Schistosome egg antigen (SEA) in vitro, adoptively-transferred small intestinal or colonic DCs acquired the ability to induce SEA-specific Th2 responses. These data demonstrate a functional specialisation among intestinal DC populations in inducing Th2 responses, and elucidate the roles of IRF4 in this process.

Diet-induced changes in tuft cell dynamics couple with type 2 immune response modulation and energy metabolism

Project description:Purpose: To examine the temporal changes in intestinal tuft cell number and activity in response to intake of a high fat diet and investigate the relation to whole-body energy metabolism and the immune phenotype of the small intestine and epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT). Methods: C57BL/6J mice were fed either a low fat reference diet (RFD, 10 % kcal fat) or a high fat diet (HFD, 60% kcal fat) for 9 or 22 weeks, followed by characterization of whole-body metabolic parameters, transcription profiles of sorted intestinal tuft cells, and immune phenotypes of tissues. Results: HFD feeding was associated with reductions in the overall number of small intestinal epithelial cells and tuft cells and reduced expression of the intestinal type 2 tuft cell markers Il25 and Tslp. Amongst >1,700 diet-regulated genes in tuft cells identified by RNA-seq, we observed an early association between body mass expansion and increased expression of Serpini1, which encodes the serine protease inhibitor neuroserpin. By contrast, tuft cell expression of genes encoding the GABA-receptors linked to reduced body mass gain. Although we observed a HFD-induced change in the eWAT inflammatory profile, the small intestinal lamina propria displayed a consistent non-inflammatory phenotype, and small intestinal tuft cell-derived transcripts were found to correlate with whole body metabolic features independently of intestinal immune cell involvement. Conclusion: Our These findings point to a role for small intestinal tuft cells in systems-wide metabolic regulation.

GATA4 represses an ileal program of gene expression in the proximal small intestine by inhibiting the acetylation of histone H3, lysine 27.

Project description:GATA4 is expressed in the proximal 85% of small intestine where it promotes a proximal intestinal ('jejunal') identity while repressing a distal intestinal ('ileal') identity, but its molecular mechanisms are unclear. Here, we tested the hypothesis that GATA4 promotes a jejunal versus ileal identity in mouse intestine by directly activating and repressing specific subsets of absorptive enterocyte genes by modulating the acetylation of histone H3, lysine 27 (H3K27), a mark of active chromatin, at sites of GATA4 occupancy. Global analysis of mouse jejunal epithelium showed a statistically significant association of GATA4 occupancy with GATA4-regulated genes. Occupancy was equally distributed between down- and up-regulated targets, and occupancy sites showed a dichotomy of unique motif over-representation at down- versus up-regulated genes. H3K27ac enrichment at GATA4-binding loci that mapped to down-regulated genes (activation targets) was elevated, changed little upon conditional Gata4 deletion, and was similar to control ileum, whereas H3K27ac enrichment at GATA4-binding loci that mapped to up-regulated genes (repression targets) was depleted, increased upon conditional Gata4 deletion, and approached H3K27ac enrichment in wild-type control ileum. These data support the hypothesis that GATA4 both activates and represses intestinal genes, and show that GATA4 represses an ileal program of gene expression in the proximal small intestine by inhibiting the acetylation of H3K27. 2 samples were analyzed (1 ChIPseq, 1 input sample), control was done by confirming ChIP-qPCR on specific targets
