Transcriptome analysis of long non-coding RNAs in Mycobacterium avium complex-infected macrophages

Project description:Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) is a non-tuberculosis mycobacteria widely distributed throughout environment. Even though the MAC infection is currently increasing in old women and patients with affected immune system, comprehensive analysis of MAC-infected host cell transcriptome, in particular that of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), has scarcely been reported. Using in vitro cultured primary mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) and CAGE technology, we analyzed the transcriptional and kinetic landscape of macrophage genes, with focusing on lncRNAs, during MAC infection. MAC-infected macrophages induced immune/inflammatory response genes and other genes as similar as M1 activation, consistent with previous reports, although Nos2 and Arg1 revealed distinct expression profiles from M1 activation. We identified 31 up-regulated and 30 down-regulated lncRNA promoters corresponding to 18 and 27 lncRNAs, respectively. The up-regulated lncRNAs were clustered into two groups, early and late up-regulated groups, which were predicted to associate with the immune activation and the immune response to infection, respectively. Further, the Ingenuity IPA analysis predicted canonical pathways and upstream transcription regulators associated with differentially expressed lncRNAs. Several differentially expressed lncRNAs that have been reported elsewhere revealed various expressional change by M1 or M2 pre-activation and the following MAC infection. Finally, we showed that expressional change of lncRNAs in MAC-infected BMDMs is predominantly mediated by Tlr2, but there may be other weakly sensing mechanism for MAC infection. Taken together, we identified differentially expressed lncRNAs in MAC-infected BMDMs, which revealed diverse features implying their distinct role in MAC infection and macrophage polarization.

Gene signature profiles in lung tisses of wild type mice or PD-1 or PD-L1 deficient mice infected with Mycobacterium avium

Project description:Rationale: T cell activation is a key antimicrobial component against mycobacterial disease. Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathway could affect the antimicrobial immune responses by suppressing T cell activity. Several recent studies demonstrated that blocking of PD-1/PD-L1 pathway exacerbated Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. However, the influence of blocking this pathway in pulmonary Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex (MAC) infection was not fully understood. Objective: We aimed to determine the influence of genetic depletion of PD-1/PD-L1 pathway on the disease activity of MAC infection. Methods: Wild-type, PD-1-deficient mice and PD-L1-deficient mice were intranasally infected with Mycobacterium avium bacteria. Measurements and Main Results: The depletion of PD-1 or PD-L1 did not affect mortality and bacterial burden in mice infected with MAC. However, remarkable infiltration of CD8 T lymphocytes was observed in the lungs of PD-1 and PD-L1 deficient mice compared to wild-type mice. Comprehensive transcriptome analysis showed that levels of gene expressions related to Th1 immunity did not differ according to the genotypes. However, genes related to the activity of CD8 T cells and related chemokine activity were up-regulated in the infected lungs of PD-1 and PD-L1 deficient mice. Conclusions: Depletion of PD-1/PD-L1 pathway did not affect the activation of Th1 immunity in response to MAC infection, which may explain why MAC infection was controlled in these mice. In addition, CD8-positive T cell pulmonary inflammation in knockout mice might have some clinical implication in the treatment of cancer patients with immune checkpoint inhibitors when the patients are infected with MAC.
