Single-Cell RNA Sequencing of Lungs Infected for 24 Hours with Avirulent Coccidioides posadasii (Δcts2/Δard1/Δcts3)

ABSTRACT: The innate immune responses to Coccidioides are not well understood, particularly regarding which immune cells initiate the response upon infection. This study uses mouse models 24 hours post-infection to explore the initial immunological response to Coccidioides. Data sets include CD45+ MACS bead-sorted lung immune cells labeled with Coccidioides to differentiate which immune cells were directly interacting with the fungus versus bystander cells. The unlabeled Coccidioides data set includes all immune cells from the lungs. Using fungal fluorescent labeling and single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified CD274 (PD-L1) expressing neutrophils and contact-dependent Spp1+ macrophages as dominant responders, indicating an anti-inflammatory initial response. These findings elucidate the early dynamics of host immune interactions with Coccidioides, providing a foundation for further understanding host-pathogen interactions in fungal respiratory infections.

AÂ Coccidioides posadasii CPS1Â deletion mutant is avirulent and protects mice from lethal infection

Project description:TheÂ CPS1Â gene was identified as a virulence factor in the maize pathogen, Cochliobolus heterostrophus. Hypothesizing that the homologous gene in Coccidioides posadasiiÂ (Cp) could be important for virulence, we created a deletion mutant,Â Îcps1, which was unable to cause disease in three strains of mice (C57BL/6, BALB/c, or the severely immunodeficient NOD-scid,Î³cnullÂ [NSG]). Only a single colony was recovered from one of 60 C57BL/6 mice following intranasal infections of up to 4400 spores. Following administration of very high doses (10,000 to 2.5 x 10^7Â spores) to NSG and BALB/c mice, spherules were observed in lung sections at time points from day 3 to day 10 post-infection, but nearly all appeared degraded with infrequent endosporulation. Although the role ofÂ CPS1Â in virulence is not understood, phenotypic alterations and transcription differences of at least 33 genes inÂ Îcps1Â vs. Cp is consistent with both metabolic and regulatory functions for the gene. The inÂ vitroÂ phenotype ofÂ Îcps1Â showed slower growth of mycelia with delayed and lower spore production compared to Cp, andÂ in vitro spherules were smaller. Vaccination of C57BL/6 or BALB/c mice with liveÂ Îcps1 spores either intranasally, intraperitoneally or subcutaneously resulted in over 95% survival with mean residual lung fungal burdens <1000 colony-forming units from an otherwise lethal Cp intranasal infection. Considering its apparently complete attenuation of virulence and the high degree of resistance to Cp infection when used as a vaccine,Â Îcps1Â is a promising vaccine candidate for preventing coccidioidomycosis in humans or other animals. Wild type and CPS1 deletion mutant strains of Coccidioides posadasii strain Silveira spherules grown for 48 hours in Converse medium at 38 degrees celsius in duplicate. RNAseq was performed on an Illumina HiSeq2000 (2x100 paired end).

Proteogenomic Re-annotation of Coccidioides posadasii strain Silveira

Project description:The aims of this study were to present modifications to the annotations of the genome of C. posadasii, one of two closely related species of Coccidioides, a dimorphic fungal pathogen that causes coccidioidomycosis, also called Valley Fever. Proteins present in lysates and filtrates of in vitro grown mycelia and parasitic phase spherules from C. posadasii strain Silveira were analyzed using a GeLC-MS/MS method.

Bulk RNA-Seq of Bone Marrow-Derived Macrophages Exposed to Avirulent Coccidioides posadasii (Δcts2/Δard1/Δcts3)

Project description:To verify that Spp1+ macrophage differentiation is contact dependent, macrophages were exposed to Coccidioides in vitro directly, or indirectly via conditioned media (cm), and expression of the gene signature was evaluated by RNA-seq.

A Coccidioides posadasii CPS1 deletion mutant is avirulent and protects mice from lethal infection

Project description:The CPS1 gene was identified as a virulence factor in the maize pathogen, Cochliobolus heterostrophus. Hypothesizing that the homologous gene in Coccidioides posadasii (Cp) could be important for virulence, we created a deletion mutant, Δcps1, which was unable to cause disease in three strains of mice (C57BL/6, BALB/c, or the severely immunodeficient NOD-scid,γcnull [NSG]). Only a single colony was recovered from one of 60 C57BL/6 mice following intranasal infections of up to 4400 spores. Following administration of very high doses (10,000 to 2.5 x 10^7 spores) to NSG and BALB/c mice, spherules were observed in lung sections at time points from day 3 to day 10 post-infection, but nearly all appeared degraded with infrequent endosporulation. Although the role of CPS1 in virulence is not understood, phenotypic alterations and transcription differences of at least 33 genes in Δcps1 vs. Cp is consistent with both metabolic and regulatory functions for the gene. The in vitro phenotype of Δcps1 showed slower growth of mycelia with delayed and lower spore production compared to Cp, and in vitro spherules were smaller. Vaccination of C57BL/6 or BALB/c mice with live Δcps1 spores either intranasally, intraperitoneally or subcutaneously resulted in over 95% survival with mean residual lung fungal burdens <1000 colony-forming units from an otherwise lethal Cp intranasal infection. Considering its apparently complete attenuation of virulence and the high degree of resistance to Cp infection when used as a vaccine, Δcps1 is a promising vaccine candidate for preventing coccidioidomycosis in humans or other animals.

Spatial Transcriptomics of Lungs Infected with Coccidioides posadasii

Project description:Coccidioidomycosis, or Valley Fever, is a lung disease caused by inhaling Coccidioides fungi, prevalent in the Southwestern U.S., Mexico, and parts of Central and South America. Climate change is contributing to the spread of this disease. Many cases are asymptomatic, some are often misdiagnosed, and a small subset can progress to severe illness. To better understand lung responses during late Coccidioides infection, we used 10x Visium spatial transcriptomics. We analyzed non-infected lung (D0) and infected lung at 14 days post-infection (D14).
