OTUD3 prevents ulcerative colitis by modulating microbiota-mediated STING activation (part 5)

ABSTRACT: Ulcerative colitis (UC) develops through a complicated interaction between the host and microbiota. Intestinal fibroblasts are suggested to play crucial roles in the pathogenesis of UC. However, the influences of the host-microbiota interaction on the pathophysiology of intestinal fibroblasts remain poorly understood. Here, we reveal that OTUD3 suppresses pathologic activation of fibroblasts exposed to microbial cyclic GMP-AMP (3’3’-cGAMP) by deubiquitinating stimulator of interferon genes (STING) in the colon. Sting deficiency ameliorated dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis in Otud3-/- mice. In addition, mice harboring an UC risk missense variant in the Otud3 gene showed pathological features of UC in the colon after transplantation of a fecal microbiome with the potential to produce excessive cGAMP from UC patients. Collectively, these results demonstrate the critical role of OTUD3 in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis and highlight one mechanism of the interaction between the host (OTUD3 in fibroblasts) and microbiota (STING agonist) in UC development.

Project description:Background and aims. The etiopathology of inflammatory bowel diseases is still poorly understood. To date, only few little data are available on the microbiota composition in ulcerative colitis (UC), representing a major subform of inflammatory bowel diseases. Currently, one of the main challenges is to unravel the interactions between genetics and environmental factors in the onset or during the progression and maintenance of the disease. The aim of the present study was to analyse twin pairs discordant for UC for both gut microbiota dysbiosis and host expression profiles at a mucosal level and to get insight into the functional genomic crosstalk between microbiota and mucosal epithelium in vivo. Methods. Biopsies were sampled from the sigmoid colon of both healthy and diseased siblings from UC discordant twin pairs but also from healthy twins. Microbiota profiles were assessed by 16S rDNA libraries while mRNA expression profiles were analysed from the same volunteers using Affymetrix microarrays. Results. UC patients showed a dysbiotic microbiota with lower diversity and more species belonging to Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria phyla. On the contrary, their healthy siblingsM-bM-^@M-^Y microbiota contained more bacteria from the Lachnospiracea and Ruminococcaceae family than did healthy individuals . Sixty-three host transcripts significantly correlated with bacterial genera in healthy individuals whereas only 43 and 32 correlated with bacteria in healthy and UC siblings from discordant pairs, respectively. Several transcripts related to oxidative and immune responses were differentially expressed between unaffected and UC siblings. Conclusion. A loss of crosstalk between gut microbiota and host was highlighted in UC patients. This defect was also striking in healthy siblings from discordant pairs, as was the lower biodiversity within the microbiota. Our results suggest disease-relevant interactions between host transcriptome and microbiota. Moreover, unusual aerobic bacteria were noticed in UC mucosal microbiota, whereas healthy siblings from discordant pairs had higher percentages of potentially beneficialusual commensal bacterial species. Paired samples (twins) were analyzed to obtain data independent of genetic variation
