Integrating AI in characterization receptor and construction signaling network for beta-glucan-engaged trained immunity in zebrafish

ABSTRACT: Trained immunity, a form of innate immune memory, involves the functional reprogramming of innate immune cells, enabling an enhanced nonspecific response to subsequent challenges. While beta-glucan, a fungal cell wall component, is a known inducer of this process in zebrafish, the specific receptor responsible remains unidentified. Here, we identify C-type lectin domain-containing 1 (CLDC1), designated DrDectin-1, as the pivotal beta-glucan receptor in zebrafish through AI-driven bioinformatic screening based on mammalian Dectin-1. Structural analysis suggests key beta-glucan binding residues (D182, Y183, H184). Using cldc1 knockout zebrafish in beta-glucan training and secondary infection models, combined with RNA-seq, H3K4me3 ChIP-seq, and virtual cell modeling, we demonstrate that CLDC1 mediates trained immunity via the Syk-Raf signaling pathways. Our findings identify the long-sought beta-glucan receptor in zebrafish and provide a comprehensive mechanistic framework for innate immune memory in teleosts, with implications for evolutionary immunology and disease management.

Trained Immunity Causes Myeloid Cell Hypercoagulability

Project description:Venous thromboembolism is common in individuals with chronic inflammatory diseases, but the pathogenic basis for this increased thrombotic risk remains poorly understood. Myeloid cell ‘trained immunity’ describes persistent innate immune cell memory arising from prior exposure to an inflammatory stimulus, leading to an enhanced immune response to subsequent unrelated stimuli. We identify enhanced myeloid cell prothrombotic activity as a novel maladaptive consequence of trained immunity. LPS stimulation of murine bone marrow-derived macrophages trained previously with either β-glucan or free haem exhibited significantly enhanced procoagulant and antifibrinolytic gene expression and activity compared to macrophages stimulated with LPS alone. The β-glucan training-mediated increase in activated myeloid cell procoagulant activity was mediated by enhanced acid sphingomyelinase-mediated tissue factor (TF) functional decryption. Furthermore, pre-treatment with methyltransferase and acetyltransferase inhibitors to erase epigenetic marks associated with innate immune memory diminished trained macrophage TF gene expression in β-glucan-trained macrophages. Functional analysis of splenic monocytes isolated from β-glucan-trained mice revealed enhanced procoagulant activity up to 4 weeks after β-glucan administration compared to monocytes from control mice over the same time period. Remarkably, monocyte procoagulant activity increased proportionately with time since β-glucan administration, before plateauing at 4 weeks. Furthermore, haematopoietic progenitor cells and bone marrow interstitial fluid isolated from β-glucan-trained mice possessed enhanced procoagulant activity compared to control mice. Trained immunity and associated metabolic perturbations may therefore represent novel therapeutic vulnerabilities in immunothrombotic disease development, opening new avenues for targeted intervention.

Histone modification and RNA changes in macrophages exposed to Beta-glucan and Fumarate

Project description:Innate immune memory is the phenomenon whereby innate immune cells such as monocytes or macrophages undergo functional reprogramming after exposure to microbial components such as Beta glucan. We apply an epigenomic approach to characterize the molecular events involved in fumarate or BG induced trained innate immunity. ChIP-seq and RNA-seq data were generated. This analysis identified epigenetic programs in trained macrophages, with fumarate exposure inducing a small subset of BG-induced histone acetylation and methylation changes.

The impact of whole glucan particles (WGP) treatment on pancreatic myeloid cells

Project description:Despite the remarkable success of immunotherapy in many types of cancer, pancreatic cancer has yet to benefit. Innate immune cells are critical players in antitumor immunosurveillance. Recent studies have revealed that innate immune populations may possess a form of memory, termed trained immunity through transcriptomic, epigenetic, and metabolic reprograming. 1Here, we show that intraperitoneal administration of yeast-derived particulate β-glucan results in 90% of that dose trafficking to the pancreas. This trafficking leads to a robust influx of newly characterized innate immune cells with an inflammatory monocyte/macrophage phenotype into the pancreas in a CCR2 dependent manner. These cells also exhibit a trained immunity phenotype upon exposure to tumor-derived factors and show enhanced phagocytosis and ROS-mediated cytotoxicity against pancreatic tumors. In orthotopic models of pancreatic cancer, mice trained with β-glucan show significantly reduced tumor burden and prolonged survival, which is further enhanced when combined with anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy. Cumulatively, these findings highlight a novel trafficking mechanism of yeast-derived particulate β-glucan that incites a phenotype of trained immunity specifically in the pancreas that can be utilized as an innovative strategy to treat pancreatic cancer.

Candida albicans induces monocyte training via epigenetic programming through a dectin 1-dependent pathway

Project description:Non-specific protective effects against reinfection have been described following infection with Candida albicans. Here we show that mice defective in functional T and B lymphocytes were protected against reinfection with C. albicans in a monocyte-dependent manner. C. albicans and beta glucans induced functional programming of monocytes, leading to enhanced cytokine production in vivo and in vitro. The training required the beta glucan receptor dectin 1 and the non-canonical Raf 1 pathway. Monocyte training by beta-glucans was mediated by epigenetic mechanisms through genome-wide changes in histone trimethylation at H3K4. Pathway analysis showed specific induction of epigenetic changes in genes of innate immunity. The functional programming of monocytes, reminiscent of similar properties of NK cells, has been termed M-bM-^@M-^\trained immunityM-bM-^@M-^] and may be employed for the design of improved vaccination strategies. Chromatin-IP at day7 followed by highthroughput sequencing to look at the differences in H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 binding in Monocytes either cultured in RPMI only versus those trained for 24hrs with beta glucan. Additionally expression analysis was performed by doing strandspecific RNAseq also for both unstimulated and beta glucan trained monocytes for correlating the histone modification changes with the expression changes. Biological replicates were generated from independent samples for H3K4me3 and RNAseq. Additional H3K4me3 ChIP-seq assays were performed for day0 untreated, 24hrs control and beta glucan trained monocytes. H3K4me3 ChIP-seq was also performed for Mouse macrophages both saline(control) and low dose Candida treated.

O6-Methylguanine DNA Methyltransferase Regulates Beta-glucan Trained Immunity of Macrophages

Project description:Trained immunity is the heightened state of innate immune memory that enhances immune response resulting in nonspecific protection. Epigenetic changes and metabolic reprogramming are critical steps that regulate trained immunity. In this study, we reported the involvement of O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), a DNA repair enzyme of lesion induced by alkylating agents, in regulation the trained immunity induced by β-glucan (BG). Pharmacological inhibition or silencing of MGMT expression altered LPS stimulated pro-inflammatory cytokine productions in BG-trained bone marrow derived macrophages (BMMs). Targeted deletion of Mgmt in BMMs resulted in reduction of the trained responses both in vitro and in vivo models. The transcriptomic analysis revealed that the dampening trained immunity in MGMT KO BMMs is partially mediated by ATM/FXR/AMPK axis affecting the MAPK/mTOR/HIF1α pathways and the reduction in glycolysis function. Taken together, a failure to resolve a DNA damage may have consequences for innate immune memory.

RNA-seq of colon

Project description:Objective: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), represents a challenging group of chronic gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders. While trained immunity, a form of innate immune memory, has shown promise in combating infection and cancer, its role in chronic inflammatory diseases, particularly inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), remains relatively underexplored. This study aims to investigate the potential of trained immunity to ameliorate IBD. Results: BG induced trained immunity significantly ameliorates DSS-induced colitis. Mechanistically, β-glucan primed the hematopoietic compartment, leading to a profound shift in monocyte fuction. Both bone marrow transplantation from trained donors to naïve recipients and adoptive transfer of trained peripheral monocytes provided protection against DSS colitis. Notably, trained mice displayed enhanced bactericidal activity against intestinal bacterial infections. Furthermore, single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that β-glucan-induced trained immunity resulted in an expansion of reparative Cx3cr1 intestinal macrophages originating from Ly6Chi monocytes, facilitating faster recovery of the colon epithelium. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate that β-glucan effectively induces trained immunity, leading to a multifaceted protective response against experimental colitis. These findings provide compelling evidence for the therapeutic potential of harnessing trained immunity to treat IBD and offer a novel approach to modulating intestinal inflammation and restoring gut homeostasis.
