YAP promotes cell-autonomous immune responses in vitro to tackle intra-cellular Staphylococcus aureus

ABSTRACT: Transcriptional cofactors YAP/TAZ have recently been found to support autophagy and inflammation, which are part of cell autonomous immunity and are critical in antibacterial defense. Here, we studied the role of YAP against Staphylococcus aureus using CRISPR/Cas9-mutated HEK293 cells and a primary cell-based organoid model. We found that S. aureus infection increases YAP transcriptional activity, which is required to reduce intracellular S. aureus replication. A 770-gene targeted transcriptomic analysis revealed that YAP upregulates genes involved in autophagy/lysosome and inflammation pathways in both infected and uninfected conditions. The YAP/TEAD transcriptional activity promotes autophagic flux and lysosomal acidification, which are important for defense against intracellular S. aureus. Furthermore, the staphylococcal toxin C3 exoenzyme EDIN-B was found effective in preventing YAP-mediated cell-autonomous immune response. This study provides new insights on the anti-S. aureus activity of YAP, which could be conserved for defense against other intracellular bacteria.

CP001: Modulation of glutamine metabolism by the PI3K-PKB/c-akt-FOXO network regulates autophagy

Project description:The PI3K-PKB/c-akt-FOXO signalling network provides a major intracellular hub for regulation of cell proliferation, survival and stress resistance1. Here we report a novel function for FOXO transcription factors in regulating autophagy through modulation of intracellular glutamine levels. To identify novel transcriptional targets of this module we performed an unbiased microarray analysis after conditional activation of the key components PI3K, PKB, FOXO3 and FOXO4. Utilising this global pathway approach we identified glutamine synthetase (GS) as being transcriptionally regulated by PI3K-PKB-FOXO signalling. FOXO-mediated increase in GS expression specifically induced glutamine production independently of cell type, and this was evolutionary conserved. FOXO activation resulted in mTOR inhibition by preventing the translocation of mTOR to lysosomal membranes, which was dependent on GS activity. Increased GS activity resulted in increased autophagosome turnover as measured by LC3 lipidation, p62 degradation, and confocal imaging of LC3, p62, WIPI-1, ULK2 and Atg12. Inhibition of FOXO3-mediated autophagy resulted in increased apoptosis, suggesting that the induction of autophagy by FOXO3-mediated upregulation of GS is important for cellular survival. These findings reveal a novel signalling network that can directly modulate autophagy through regulation of glutamine metabolism. conditional activation of pkb and pi3k were followed in a timeseries. Each timepoint consists of 4 independent replicates, labeled with either cy3 or cy5 and put on array against time0.

HLH-30/TFEB-mediated autophagy functions in a cell-autonomous manner for epithelium intrinsic cellular defense against bacterial pore-forming toxin in C. elegans

Project description:Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved intracellular system that maintains cellular homeostasis by degrading and recycling damaged cellular components. The transcription factor HLH-30/TFEB-mediated autophagy has been reported to regulate tolerance to bacterial infection, but less is known about the bona fide bacterial effector that activates HLH-30 and autophagy. Here, we unveil that bacterial membrane pore-forming toxin (PFT) induces autophagy through an HLH-30-dependent manner in Caenorhabditis elegans. Moreover, autophagy controls the susceptibility of animals to PFT toxicity through xenophagic degradation of PFT and repair of membrane-pore cell-autonomously in the PFT-targeted intestinal cells in C. elegans. These results demonstrate that autophagic pathways and autophagy are induced partly at the transcriptional level through HLH-30 activation and are required to protect metazoan upon PFT intoxication. Together, our data show a new and powerful connection between HLH-30-mediated autophagy and epithelium intrinsic cellular defense against the single most common mode of bacterial attack in vivo.

α-Catenin Levels Determine Direction of YAP/TAZ Response to Autophagy Perturbation

Project description:The factors regulating cellular identity are critical for understanding the transition from health to disease and responses to therapies. Cell identity is generally assigned based on static phenotypes, like “omics” profiles. However, how such static features translate into dynamic responses to perturbations that determine cellular function is often unclear. We found that autophagy perturbation in different cell types can have opposite responses in growth-promoting oncogenic YAP/TAZ transcriptional signalling. These apparently contradictory responses can be resolved by a feedback loop where autophagy negatively regulates the levels of α-catenins LC3-interacting proteins, which inhibit YAP/TAZ, which, in turn, positively regulate autophagy. High basal levels of α-catenins enable autophagy induction to positively regulate YAP/TAZ, while low α-catenins cause YAP/TAZ activation upon autophagy inhibition. These data reveal how feedback loops enable post-transcriptional determination of cell identity and how levels of a single intermediary protein can dictate the direction of response to external or internal perturbations.

Gene expression data from S. aureus-exposed macrophages

Project description:It is becoming increasingly apparent that Staphylococcus aureus are able to survive engulfment by macrophages, and that the intracellular environment of these cells, which is essential to innate host defenses against invading microorganisms, may in fact provide a refuge for staphylococcal survival and dissemination. Based on this, we postulated that S. aureus might induce cytoprotective mechanisms by changing gene expression profiles inside macrophages similar to obligate intracellular pathogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In order to examine the effect of S. aureus on the macrophage transcriptome, we performed microarray expression analysis on human monocyte-derived macrophages treated with S. aureus.

Huntingtin aggregation impairs autophagy leading to Argonaute-2 accumulation and global microRNA dysregulation

Project description:Many neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by the presence of intracellular protein aggregates resulting in alterations in autophagy. However, the consequences of impaired autophagy on neuronal function remain poorly understood. In this study, we used cell culture and mouse models of huntingtin protein aggregation, as well as post-mortem material from patients with Huntington's disease to demonstrate that Argonaute-2 (AGO2) accumulates in the presence of neuronal protein aggregates and that this is due to impaired autophagy. Accumulation of AGO2, a key factor of the RNAinduced silencing complex that executes microRNA functions, results in global alterations of microRNA levels and activity. Together these results demonstrate that impaired autophagy found in neurodegenerative diseases not only influences protein aggregation, but also directly contributes to global alterations of intracellular posttranscriptional networks.

Effect of benzimidazole derivative C162 on Staphylococcus aureus virulence

Project description:From a Caenorhabditis elegans - S. aureus anti-infective screen, we identified benzimidazole derivative C162 as one of the potential anti-infective candidate that rescued the infected-nematodes from infection. This compound was found to exhibit anti-biofilm activity against S. aureus. To investigate the transcriptome profile of S. aureus in response to benzimidazole derivative C162, a genome-wide transcriptome analysis was performed on C162-treated S. aureus using the Affymetrix GeneChip S. aureus Genome Arrays. Our main interest is to look at the expression profiles of the biofilm-associated and virulence genes.

UBB+1-induced activation of autophagy reduces cytotoxicity of amyloid-β in yeast

Project description:UBB+1 is a mutated version of ubiquitin B caused by a transcriptional frameshift. The accumulation of UBB+1, has been linked to ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) dysfunction and neurodegeneration. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of neurodegeneration and accumulation of amyloid β (Aβ) in the brain is a prominent neuropathological feature of AD. In our previous study, we found that low expression of UBB+1 could protect cells against several stresses during chronological aging. Here, we applied the genome-wide expression analyses and found that low UBB+1 expression activated the autophagy pathway. Low UBB+1 expression was shown to upregulate vacuolar activity and promote transport of the ATG8p (autophagic marker) to the vacuole. To further study the effects, we expressed low level of UBB+1 in our humanized yeast Aβ models with the expression of either Aβ42 or Aβ40. Interestingly, the co-expression of UBB+1 with Aβ42 or Aβ40 showed a reduction of intracellular Aβ levels and increased chronological life span. In the autophagy deficient mutant background (atg1∆), the intracellular Aβ levels were not affected by UBB+1 expression. Our findings suggest a mechanism of UBB+1 action in reducing intracellular levels of Aβ.
