Project description:SIRT7 is a member of the mammalian sirtuin family of NAD+ dependent deacylases, and interacts with RNA polymerase I and UBF to regulate rDNA transcription. Various studies in mammalian cells and human clinical data have linked SIRT7 to cancer. However studies differ as to whether SIRT7 is oncogenic or tumor suppressive. Here we analyzed SIRT7 knockout mice and found SIRT7 deficiency caused sub-Mendelian birth numbers and a reduction in body size. Moreover, at 18 month of age, roughly 60 % of the SIRT7 knockout mice develop hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), in many cases leading to suspected metastasis. Several HCC associated genes were up-regulated in livers of mice as young as 6 months of age, particularly targets of the proto-oncogene, c- MYC. Indeed SIRT7 interacts with MYC at endogenous protein levels and also represses MYC activity. Our findings thus show that SIRT7 acts as a tumor suppressor in vivo, and may suggest novel strategies to treat liver cancer.

Project description:Host resistance to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection requires the activities of multiple leukocyte subsets, yet the roles of the different innate effector cells during tuberculosis (TB) are incompletely understood. Here we show a role for eosinophils in host resistance to Mtb infection. In humans, eosinophils are found in resected human TB lung lesions and autopsy granulomas. Eosinophils are also found in granulomas in zebrafish, mice, and non-human primates, where they are functionally activated and degranulate. Transcriptional profiling of lung tissue after Mtb infection of mice, that selectively lack eosinophils, revealed changes in neuronal associated pathways. Importantly, employing several independent models of eosinophil deficiency in mice, we demonstrate that eosinophils are required for optimal pulmonary bacterial control and host survival after Mtb infection. Collectively, our findings establish an unexpected role for eosinophils, granulocytes typically associated with type II inflammation, in host resistance against Mtb, a major human bacterial pathogen.

Project description:SIRT7 is a member of the mammalian sirtuin family and functions as a NAD+-dependent deacylase. Studies in culture cells and human clinical data have implicated the role of SIRT7 in tumorigenesis. However, controversies were raised as to whether SIRT7 is oncogenic or tumor suppressive. Here we show that SIRT7 deficiency led to aneuploidy and aging-phenotypes, including senescence and nucleolin expansion. SIRT7 knockout mice were susceptible to DSS-induced colitis and alcohol-derived DNA damage, in advance led to intestinal epithelial barrier disruption. Devoid of SIRT7 aggravated the susceptibility of colorectal cancer incidence in APCMin/+ mouse model with further dysregulated Wnt signaling. Our findings indicated a tumor suppressive role of SIRT7 in vivo, novel strategies design for activating SIRT7 in treating colon cancer may be reappraised.

Project description:Human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) senescence contributes to the imbalance of tissue homeostasis during aging. However, the connection between Sirtuin 7 (SIRT7) and hMSC homeostasis remains unclear. Here, we discovered a pivotal role of SIRT7 in protecting hMSC from senescence. We detected a decreased expression of SIRT7 during hMSC aging, while overexpression of which reversed premature hMSC senescence phenotypes. Mechanistically, we proved SIRT7 as a novel interacting protein of the heterochromatin complex, whose deficiency disrupted heterochromatin organization, thereby contributing to the derepression of the retrotransposon Long Interspersed Element 1 (LINE1 or L1). SIRT7-deficient hMSCs accumulated LINE1 in cytoplasm stimulating innate immune response by activated the cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) and its downstream signaling effector stimulator of interferon genes (STING). Moreover, reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (RTis), such as Lamivudine (3TC), attenuated these senescence phenotypes of SIRT7-deficient hMSCs. Taken together, our findings identify SIRT7-heterochromatin via LINE1-cGAS/STING influence innate immune response, which contributes more comprehensive understanding of the physiological and function of SIRT7 and help us to find novel targets for the treatment of aging and aging relative diseases.

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease that is a primary cause of mortality and illness in around a quater of the world' population particular in low income nations. The disease most commonly affects lung, but pathogens can also be found in other parts of the body. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is the etiologic agent of TB and its ability to penetrate immune cells and develop a niche by beating the host's defense mechanism is crucial to its pathogenic sucess. Mtb has a diverse lipid and protein spectrum. Understanding the host-pathogen-interplay in active TB will have a substantial impact in understanding molecular mechanisms of Mtb infection and guide the development of vaccination, diagnostics and therapy response monitoring.

Project description:The innate immune system provides the first response to pathogen infection and orchestrates the activation of the adaptive immune system. Though a large component of the innate immune response is common to all infections, pathogen-specific innate immune responses have been documented as well. The innate immune response is thought to be especially critical for fighting infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). While TB can be a deadly disease, only 5-10% of individuals infected with MTB develop active disease, and this inter-individual variation is, at least partly, heritable. Studies of inter-individual variation in the innate immune response to MTB infection may therefore shed light on the genetic basis for variation in susceptibility to TB. Yet, to date, we still do not know which properties of the innate immune response are specific to MTB infection and which represent a general response to pathogen infection. To begin addressing this gap, we infected macrophages with eight different bacterial pathogens, including different MTB strains and related mycobacteria, and studied the transcriptional response to infection. We found that although the gene expression changes were largely consistent across the bacterial infection treatments, we were able to identify a novel subset of genes whose regulation was affected specifically by infection with mycobacteria. Genetic variants that are associated with regulatory differences in these genes should be considered candidate loci for explaining inter-individual susceptibility TB.

Project description:Every year, tuberculosis kills nearly 1.8 million people through out the world. Though outcome of M. tuberculosis infection into active disease is determined by the host and bacterial factors, a strong host immune response controls the growth of the bacilli effectively. However, in a host with suboptimal immune response, the bacilli grows and mounts active disease. Activation of immune response following M. tuberculosis infection affects the expression of many host genes that are involved in the production of immune system molecules such as cytokines, chemokines, surface receptors and transcriptional regulators that manifest in the change of subsequent cellular events, including activation, maturation, chemotaxis and proliferation of effector cells. However, the specific nature of the host-pathogen interactions and the outcome of Mtb infection are not fully understood. In this study, we have analysed the systematic changes in the global host gene expression profile in the lungs of Mtb infected rabbits at various stages of infection. Mtb infected rabbit lung tissues were isolated at T=0,2, 4 and 16 weeks post-infection. Lung bacterial load, histologic changes and host and bacterial gene expression were determined for each timepoint and compared . Our data suggests a strong correlation between the significant changes in the global transcriptome of infected rabbits and the progression of Mtb infection into a chronic, cavitary TB disease. The microarray experiments involves comparison of: 1) Changes in rabbit gene expression between Mtb-HN878 infected and uninfected animals at 2,4 and 16 weeks post infection. New Zealand White rabbits were infected with Mtb HN878 at 3.2log10 (on day 0). Lung tissue from Mtb-infected rabbits were isolated at Day0, 2, 4 and 16 weeks post infection and used for total RNA extraction.

Project description:Tuberculosis (TB) is a heterogeneous disease manifesting in a subset of individuals infected with aerosolized Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Unlike human TB, murine infection results in uniformly high lung bacterial burdens and poorly organized granulomas. To develop a TB model that more closely resembles human disease, we infected mice with an ultra-low dose (ULD) of between 1-3 founding bacteria, reflecting a physiologic inoculum. ULD-infected mice exhibited highly heterogeneous bacterial burdens, well-circumscribed granulomas that shared features with human granulomas, and prolonged Mtb containment with unilateral pulmonary infection in some mice. We identified blood RNA signatures in mice infected with an ULD or a conventional Mtb dose (50-100 CFU) that correlated with lung bacterial burdens and predicted Mtb infection outcomes across species, including risk of progression to active TB in humans. Overall, these findings highlight the potential of the mouse TB model and show that ULD infection recapitulates key features of human TB.

Project description:Macrophages are a protective replicative niche for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) but can kill the infecting bacterium when appropriately activated. To identify mechanisms of clearance, we compared bacterial restriction by human macrophages after treatment with 26 compounds, including some currently in clinical trials for tuberculosis. All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA), an active metabolite of vitamin A, drove the greatest increase in Mtb control. Bacterial clearance was transcriptionally and functionally associated with changes in macrophage cholesterol trafficking and lipid metabolism. To determine how these macrophage changes affected bacterial control, we performed the first Mtb CRISPR interference screen in an infection model, identifying Mtb genes specifically required to survive in ATRA-activated macrophages. These data showed that ATRA treatment starves Mtb of cholesterol and the downstream metabolite propionyl-CoA. Supplementation with sources of propionyl-CoA, including cholesterol, abrogated the restrictive effect of ATRA. This work demonstrates that targeting the coupled metabolism of Mtb and the macrophage improves control of infection, and that it is possible to genetically map the mode of bacterial death using CRISPR interference.
