Mycobacteria infection induced cascade of epigenetic alterations promote training in bystander macrophages

ABSTRACT: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) actively remodels host cell functions to promote its intracellular survival. Emerging evidence suggests that Mtb also significantly affects uninfected bystander cells within the host. However, the mechanisms underlying bystander cell modulation and their functional consequences during Mtb infection remain poorly understood. In this study, we show that Mtb infection alters the host epigenome, resulting in correlated gene expression changes not only in infected cells but also in bystander cells. We demonstrate that cytokines secreted by Mtb-infected cells, particularly interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), mediate these epigenetic changes in bystander cells, creating an intracellular environment similar to that of infected cells. These epigenetic alterations in bystander cells lead to population-wide trained immunity, enhancing the response of both infected and bystander cells to subsequent secondary stimuli. Our findings provide a mechanism for the propagation of trained immunity in a cell population and highlight bystander cells as active participants in shaping the innate immune response to Mtb infection. Understanding these intercellular communications presents a new frontier for developing comprehensive strategies that target both infected and bystander cells to modulate the broader cellular and immune response to tuberculosis.

Kinetics of progressive pulmonary cavitary TB disease in rabbits

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.

Genome-wide maps of H3K4me1 in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv-infected macrophages

Project description:Host macrophage transcriptional responses to intracellular pathogens remain poorly characterized. We screened transcriptional enhancers engaged in response to M. tuberculosis (Mtb) infection by ChIPseq analysis of histone H3 lysine 4 monomethylation (H3K4me1). De novo monomethylation during infection was associated with genes implicated in host defense and apoptosis. These regions were enriched for binding sites for ETS transcription factor family members and response elements for nuclear receptors, including liver X receptors (LXRs) and peroxisomal proliferator activated receptors (PPARs), many of which were encompassed by transposable elements. LXRa expression was strongly induced by infection, whereas that of PPARs was unaffected. LXR DNA binding and NCoR corepressor recruitment increased proportionately in infected cells but coactivator association was unchanged, consistent with a lack of induction of endogenous agonists. However, treatment of infected cells with LXR agonist T0901317 strongly increased coactivator recruitment and induced a gene expression program characterized by enhanced innate immune signaling and lipid metabolism. Remarkably, T0901317 treatment selectively induced apoptosis in infected macrophages, and was accompanied by Mtb death, reducing mycobacterial burden 18-fold relative to vehicle 5d after infection. These studies define macrophage transcriptional responses to Mtb infection, and suggest that tissue-specific LXRa agonists may be efficacious in clinical management of tuberculosis.

Mycobacterial Pstp Impairs Host RNA Alternative Splicing by Dephosphorylation of Spliceosome RBMX at S189

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection can widely affect host signal transduction and protein function. Recent studies have revealed that Mtb virulence factors could regulate host immune activation and promote intracellular survival of the pathogen. However, no systematic research has been conducted on Mtb infection. Here, we analyzed mycobacteria-infected cells using multi-omics (proteomics, phosphoproteomics, transcriptomics, and interactomics) and observed that mycobacteria could regulate host alternative splicing by decreasing spliceosomes phosphorylation level. Using phosphoproteomics and interactomics, we connected decreased host phosphorylation with mycobacterial serine/threonine protein phosphatase PstP and observed that Pstp can regulate host Pla2g7 gene alternative splicing by dephosphorylating the spliceosome RBMX S189 site. Further studies showed that PLA2G7 exon9 including rather than excluding form, promotes the inflammatory response. In conclusion, our findings revealed the global landscape and Pstp functions during Mtb infection, which could lead to a deeper understanding of Mtb-host interactions.

PPARγ-Mediated Ferroptosis in Macrophages Enhances Persistent Pulmonary Infction by Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Project description:In this study, we found that Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) uses the PPARγ-GPX4 axis to induce ferroptosis in host cells, promoting persistent infection. Elevated PPARγ levels in macrophages post-Mtb infection, due to direct interactions with Mtb IDH and impaired degradation, lead to suppressed GPX4 expression and increased lipid peroxidation. Deleting PPARγ reduces lung inflammation, Mtb burden, and restores GPX4 expression in infected macrophages. This discovery of Mtb hijacking PPARγ to induce ferroptosis suggests a promising target for tuberculosis treatment.

Host directed activity of Pyrazinamide in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection

Project description:Pyrazinamide (PZA) is one of the first line antibiotics used for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB). we have used human monocyte and a mouse model of pulmonary TB to investigate whether treatment with PZA, in addition to its known anti-mycobacterial properties, modulate the host immune response during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. Mice were infected with Mtb and treatment with PZA was started at 28 days post-infection. At 42 days and 63 days post-infection, group of animals were euthanized and lung tissue was collected to isolate total RNA and used in microarray experiments. Mtb-infected, untreated animals served as controls.

Early innate immunity determines outcome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis pulmonary infection in rabbits

Project description:In our rabbit model of pulmonary tuberculosis, infection with Mtb HN878, a hyper-virulent W-Beijing strain, results in progressive cavitary disease. However, infection of rabbit lungs with Mtb CDC1551, a hyper-immunogenic strain is effectively controlled overtime, establishing latent Mtb infection. Using these two Mtb strains, we tested the hypothesis that the initial host response in the lungs within hours of infection determines later outcome. The microarray experiments was performed to identify gene expression changes in the Mtb-HN878 or CDC1551- infected rabbit lungs at 3 hours post infection, compared to uninfected naïve rabbit lungs. New Zealand White rabbits were infected with Mtb HN878 or CDC1551 at ~3.5log10. At 3 hours post infection, lung tissue from Mtb-infected and uninfected rabbits were isolated and used for total RNA extraction. Total rabbit lung RNA was used for microarray analysis to determine infection induced changes in host gene expression.

Tax1bp1 promotes inflammatory signaling and necrosis during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection of alveolar macrophages

Project description:Crosstalk between autophagy, host cell death, and inflammatory host responses to bacterial pathogens enables effective innate immune responses that limit bacterial growth while reducing coincidental host damage. Mycobacterium tuberculosis thwarts innate immune defense mechanisms in alveolar macrophages (AMs) during the initial stages of infection and in recruited bone marrow-derived cells during later stages of infection. How protective inflammatory responses are achieved during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection and the differences in these responses in macrophage subtypes are obscure. Here, we discovered that the autophagy receptor Tax1bp1 plays a critical role in enhancing inflammatory cytokine production and promoting the susceptibility of mice to infection with Mtb. These results were surprising because Tax1bp1 instead restricts Mtb growth during infection of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs), as we previously showed (Budzik et al. 2020), and terminates cytokine production in response to cytokine stimulation or viral infection. Tax1bp1 also leads to increases in bacterial growth and inflammatory responses during infection of mice with Listeria monocytogenes, an intracellular pathogen that is not effectively targeted to canonical autophagy. In contrast to its role in restricting Mtb growth in BMDMs, Tax1bp1 promotes Mtb growth in AMs, neutrophils, and recruited monocyte-derived cells from the bone marrow. In Mtb-infected AMs, Tax1bp1 enhances necrosis and inflammatory cytokine synthesis while restraining apoptosis, changing the mode of host cell death to favor Mtb replication. Similar to Tax1bp1-deficiency in AMs, the expression of phosphosite-deficient Tax1bp1 restricts Mtb growth. Together, these results show that Tax1bp1 plays a crucial role in linking the regulation of autophagy, cell death, and pro-inflammatory host responses to augment susceptibility to bacterial infection.
