Project description:The meninges are densely innervated by nociceptive sensory neurons that mediate pain and headache. How pain and neuro-immune interactions impact meningeal host defenses is unclear. Bacterial meningitis causes life-threatening infections of the meninges and central nervous system (CNS), affecting over one million people a year. Here we find that Nav1.8+ neuron signaling to immune cells in the meninges via the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) exacerbates bacterial meningitis. Nociceptor ablation reduced meningeal and brain invasion by two bacterial pathogens: Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus agalactiae. S. pneumoniae activated nociceptors via Pneumolysin to release CGRP, which acts through its receptor RAMP1 on meningeal macrophages to inhibit chemokine expression, neutrophil recruitment and antimicrobial defenses. Macrophage-specific RAMP1 deficiency or blockade of RAMP1 signaling enhanced immune responses and bacterial clearance in meninges and brain. Therefore, targeting a neuro-immune axis in the meninges can enhance host defenses and may be a potential treatment for bacterial meningitis.

Project description:The somatosensory nervous system surveils external stimuli at barrier tissues, regulating innate immune cells under infection and inflammation. The roles of sensory neurons in controlling the adaptive immune system, and more specifically immunity to the microbiota, however, remain elusive. Here, we identified a novel mechanism for direct neuroimmune communication between commensal-specific T lymphocytes and somatosensory neurons mediated by the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in the skin. Intravital imaging revealed that commensal-specific T cells are in close proximity to cutaneous nerve fibers in vivo. Correspondingly, we observed upregulation of the receptor for the neuropeptide CGRP, RAMP1, in CD8+ T lymphocytes induced by skin commensal colonization. Neuroimmune CGRP-RAMP1 signaling axis functions in commensal-specific T cells to constrain Type 17 responses and moderate the activation status of microbiota-reactive lymphocytes at homeostasis. As such, modulation of neuroimmune CGRP-RAMP1 signaling in commensal-specific T cells shapes the overall activation status of the skin epithelium, thereby impacting the outcome of responses to insults such as wounding. The ability of somatosensory neurons to control adaptive immunity to the microbiota via the CGRP-RAMP1 axis underscores the various layers of regulation and multisystem coordination required for optimal microbiota-reactive T cell functions under steady state and pathology.

Project description:Drug tolerant leukemic cell stem (LSC) subpopulations may explain frequent relapses in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), suggesting that these Relapse-Initiating Cells (RICs) persistent after chemotherapy represent bona fide targets to prevent drug resistance and relapse. We uncover that the G-protein coupled receptor CALCRL is expressed in RICs, and that the overexpression of CALCRL and/or of its ligand adrenomedullin (ADM) and not CGRP correlates to adverse outcome in AML. CALCRL knockdown impairs leukemic growth, decreases LSC frequency and sensitizes to cytarabine in patient-derived xenograft models.

Project description:Since the immune system plays a critical role in orchestrating tissue healing, regenerative strategies that control immune components have proven effective. This is particularly relevant when immune dysregulation resulting from conditions such as diabetes or advanced age impairs tissue healing following injury. Nociceptive sensory neurons play a crucial role as immunoregulators, exerting both protective and harmful effects depending on the context. However, how neuro-immune interactions impact tissue repair and regeneration after acute injury is unclear. Here, we show that Nav1.8+ nociceptor ablation impairs skin wound repair and muscle regeneration after acute tissue injuries. Nociceptor endings grow into injured skin and muscle tissues and signal to immune cells through the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) during the healing process. CGRP acts via receptor activity modifying protein 1 (RAMP1) on neutrophils and macrophages to inhibit recruitment, accelerate death, enhance efferocytosis, and polarise macrophages towards a pro-repair phenotype. CGRP effects on neutrophils and macrophages are mediated via thrombospondin-1 release and its subsequent autocrine/paracrine effects. In mice without nociceptors and diabetic mice with peripheral neuropathies, delivering an engineered version of CGRP accelerated wound healing and promoted muscle regeneration. Harnessing neuro-immune interactions holds potential to treat non-healing tissues where dysregulated neuro-immune interactions impair tissue healing.

Project description:Hypertension is a pathological condition of persistent high blood pressure (BP) of which the underlying mechanisms remain largely obscure. Here, we show that the afferent nerves in perirenal adipose tissue are a regulatory site in triggering and maintaining pathological high BP, without affecting physiological BP. Bilateral perirenal adipose tissue (PRAT) ablation leads to a long-term and effective reduction of BP in spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHR) and high fat and high salt diet fed rats, but has no effect on normal BP in control Wistar-Kyoto or control SD rats. Moreover, gain- and loss-of-function studies show that augmented activities of L1-L2 dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons are responsible for hypertension in SHR. Further, L1-L2 DRG neuron transcriptomics uncovers significant changes in neuron development, remodeling, and plasticity. Importantly, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a systemic vasodilator, is induced after PRAT ablation. We went on to show that CGRP antagonist blocks the BP-lowering effect of PRAT ablation. CGRP is therefore a key endogenous suppressor of hypertension that is sequestered by anti-hypertensive PRAT in SHRs. Taken together, we identify PRAT afferent nerves as a pathological node of hypertension that sustains high BP via suppressing CGRP, thereby providing a therapeutic target to tackle primary hypertension.

Project description:The developing peripheral nervous and immune systems are functionally distinct from adults. These systems are vulnerable to effects of early life injury which can influence outcomes related to nociception following subsequent injury later in life (i.e. “neonatal nociceptive priming”). The underpinnings of this phenomenon are largely unknown, although critical periods in macrophages can be epigenetically trained by injury. We found that macrophages are both necessary and partially sufficient to drive neonatal nociceptive priming possibly due to a long-lasting epigenetic remodeling of peripheral macrophages. The p75 neurotrophic factor receptor (NTR) was found to be an important effector in regulating this “nociceptive trained immunity”. p75NTR modulates the inflammatory profile and responses of rodent and human macrophages and this “pain memory” was able to be transferred to a naive host to alter sex-specific pain-related behaviors. This study reveals a novel mechanism by which acute post-surgical pain may transition to chronic pain in children.
