Relish-mediated lncRNA-CR33942 facilitates Drosophila Imd immune responses and promotes antimicrobial peptide expression via interacting with Relish

ABSTRACT: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), as a class of emerging regulators, play crucial role in regulating the strength and duration of innate immunity. However, little is known about how these Drosophila Imd immunity-related lncRNAs are regulated. Herein, we firstly revealed that overexpression of lncRNA-CR33942 could strengthen the expression of Imd pathway antimicrobial peptides Diptericin (Dpt) and Attacin-A (AttA) after infection, and vice versa. Secondly, RNA-seq analysis of post-infected lncRNA-CR33942-overexpressing flies further confirmed that lncRNA-CR33942 positively regulates the Drosophila Imd pathway. Mechanistically, we indicated that lncRNA-CR33942 interacts with NF-κB transcription factor Relish to promote its binding to Dpt and AttA promoters, thereby facilitating Dpt and AttA expression. Interestingly, we found that Relish can also directly promote lncRNA-CR33942 transcription by binding to its promoter. Finally, rescue experiments and dynamic expression profiling post-infection demonstrated the vital role of the Relish/lncRNA-CR33942/AMPs regulatory axis in enhancing inadequate Imd immune responses and maintaining immune homeostasis. Taken together, our study not only elucidates a novel mechanism about lncRNA in Drosophila Imd immune regulation, but also has important guiding significance for elucidating the complex regulatory mechanism of animal innate immune response.

Expression data from D.melanogaster larvae with a constitutively active Imd in the fat body

Project description:Activation of innate immune responses in the Drosophila larval fat body affects the physiological host responses. In order to characterize the effect of the activated immune responses in the fat body on the Drosophila, we used whole-genome microarray analysis and found that activation of the immune deficieny pathway (Imd) in the fat body alters the transcriptional profiles of Drosophila larvae. As we expected many of genes involved in regulation of antimicrobial peptides were upregulated in the larvae with elevated Imd activity in the fat body. Notably, we found activatioan of Imd in the fat body negatively affects expression of genes involved in glycolysis, energy production and insulin signaling pathway. Overall, our analysis showed that activation of innate immune signaling in the larval fat body significantly affects cellular pathways that regulate metabolism.

A circular RNA Edis-Relish-castor axis regulates neuronal development in Drosophila

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a new group of noncoding and regulatory RNAs that are particularly abundant in the nervous system, although their physiological functions are underexplored. Here we report that the brain-enriched circular RNA Edis (Ect4-derived immune suppressor) plays an essential role in neuronal development in Drosophila, as its depletion causes defective axonal projection of mushroom body (MB) neurons in the brain, as well as impaired locomotor activity and shortened lifespan of adult flies. In addition, we show that the castor gene, which encodes a transcription factor involved in neurodevelopment, is upregulated in Edis knockdown neurons. Notably, castor overexpression phenocopies Edis knockdown, and reducing castor levels suppresses the neuronal developmental phenotypes in Edis-depleted neurons. Furthermore, chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis reveals that the immune transcription factor Relish occupies two sites at the castor promoter, and that both sites are required for optimal castor gene activation induced by either immune challenge or Edis depletion. Lastly, Relish mutation rescues both the castor hyperactivation phenotype and neuronal defects in Edis knockdown animals. We conclude that the circular RNA Edis acts through Relish and castor to regulate neuronal development.

Heterozygous mutation of NF-B innate immune response transcription factor Relish increases survival following traumatic brain injury in Drosophila

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) pathologies are caused by primary and secondary injuries. Primary injuries result from physical damage to the brain, and secondary injuries arise from cellular responses to primary injuries. A characteristic cellular response is sustained activation of inflammatory pathways commonly mediated by NF-B transcription factors. Using a Drosophila melanogaster TBI model, we previously found that the main proximal transcriptional response to primary injuries is triggered by activation of Toll and Imd innate immune response pathways that engage NF-B factors Dif and Relish (Rel), respectively. Here, we monitor the abundance of Rel protein by mass spectrometry (MS) and observe that Rel increases in fly heads at 4-8 h after TBI. To investigate the necessity of Rel for secondary injuries, we generated a null allele, Reldel, by CRISPR/Cas9 editing. Heterozygous but not homozygous Reldel mutation reduced mortality at 24 h after TBI and increased the lifespan of injured flies. Additionally, the effect of heterozygous Reldel mutation on mortality was modulated by genetic background and diet. To identify genes that facilitate effects of heterozygous Reldel mutation on TBI outcomes, we compared genome-wide mRNA expression profiles of uninjured and injured +/+, +/Reldel, and Reldel/Reldel flies at 4 h following TBI. Only a few genes changed expression more than two-fold in +/Reldel flies relative to +/+ and Reldel/Reldel flies, and they were not canonical innate immune response genes. Therefore, Rel is necessary for TBI-induced secondary injuries but in complex ways involving Rel gene dose, genetic background, diet, and possibly small changes in expression of innate immune response genes.

Transcription profiling of Drosophila mutant for transcription factors Dorsal, Dif, and Relish and their effect on immune response

Project description:The abstract of the manuscript titled "Microarray analyses reveal possible new targets for the Rel protein Dif in Drosophila melanogaster " is given below: ; The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster express three closely related NF-ÎºB-like transcription factors: Dorsal, Dif, and Relish. They share significant sequence identity in their DNA binding Rel homology domain and bind similar DNA sequence motifs. These factors play an important role in the transcription of Drosophila humoral immune proteins such as antimicrobial peptides during infection. To study their roles in vivo, we used microarrays to determine the effect of null mutations in individual Rel transcription factors on larval gene expression. Of the 188 genes that were significantly upregulated in wildtype larvae upon bacterial challenge, overlapping but distinct groups of genes were affected in the Rel mutants. We also ectopically expressed Dorsal or Dif and used cDNA microarrays to determine the genes that were up-regulated in the presence of these transcription factors. Combining this data, we identified novel genes that may be specific targets of Dif. Experiment Overall Design: This study uses Affymetrix chips to study the effect on gene expression when third instar larvae are injected with PBS or E. coli bacteria. Wildtype, Dorsal1 mutant, Dif1 mutant, and Relish E20 mutant larvae are used to determine the effect of the mutations on gene expression.

Activating transcription factor 3 regulates immune and metabolic homeostasis

Project description:Integration of metabolic, stress and immune responses plays a fundamental role during animal development to maintain energy homeostasis while ensuring growth and proper developmental timing. Perturbation of metabolic and immune signaling circuits has detrimental consequences to animal development including growth retardation, organ malfunction and emergence of the metabolic syndrome. Here, we demonstrate that the Drosophila basic region-leucine zipper (bZIP) protein, Activating transcription factor 3 (Atf3), safeguards a balance of metabolic and immune system responses during fly development. Loss of Atf3 function results in lethality during late-larval and pupal stages. Atf3-deficient larvae exhibit phenotypes resembling the metabolic syndrome in mammals. Excessive accumulation of lipids in the larval fat body and gut is accompanied by altered expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism. Moreover, the fat body of atf3 mutants becomes infiltrated by hemocytes. The major pro-inflammatory pathways signaling through JNK and Imd are hyperactivated in atf3 mutants, causing ectopic expression of antimicrobial peptide genes. Suppression of the immune response, achieved by reducing the gene dose of the transcription factors FOXO or NF-kappaB/Relish, significantly improves lipid metabolism and normalizes gene expression profile of atf3 mutants. In addition, heterozygosity of relish partially rescues lethality of the atf3 mutants. Our data thus identify Atf3 as an essential player that links metabolic and immune system homeostasis during animal development. Examination of mRNA levels from four genotypes of male, 3rd instar Drosophila melanogaster larvae. mRNA levels from four genotypes relative to y w control were determined using two biological replicates per genotype.
