RNA sequencing of nasal lavage samples from mock- and Streptococcus pneumoniae-infected infant mice

ABSTRACT: Nasopharyngeal colonization by Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) is common and often asymptomatic, yet prolonged colonization increases the risk of transmission and invasive pneumococcal disease, particularly early in life. Host immune pathways that prevent persistent colonization remain poorly understood. Here, we examined how IL-1R and IL-17RA signaling shape host transcriptional responses during pneumococcal colonization of the upper respiratory tract. Using a mouse model of Spn colonization, we performed bulk RNA-sequencing on nasal lavages from mock-treated and Spn-colonized wild-type, Il1r1-/- and Il17ra-/- mice. In wild-type mice, colonization induced robust upregulation of inflammatory and innate immune gene programs, whereas many of these responses were attenuated in Il1r1-/- and Il17ra-/- mice. Taken together, this analysis demonstrates that IL-1R and IL-17RA signaling are required for full activation of host transcriptional responses that limit persistent Spn colonization.

IL-1 protects from fatal systemic candidiasis by inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation and hypoxia [snRNA-Seq]

Project description:Invasive C. albicans infections result in high mortality rates. While IL-1 is important to combat these infections, the precise mode of action remains unclear. Using global and conditional Il1r1 knockouts in mice, we found that IL-1R-signaling in non-hematopoietic cells in the kidney and brain is crucial for a protective response. In the kidney, endothelial IL-1R contributes to fungal clearance independent of neutrophil recruitment, while IL-1R in hematopoietic cells is dispensable. In the brain, IL-1R-signaling indirectly recruits neutrophils and monocytes by regulating chemokines and adhesion molecules. Single-nucleus-RNA-sequencing revealed Il1r1-mediated NF-B-activation in distinct kidney cell types. Our data reveal excessive metabolic activity and oxidative phosphorylation across all cell types in the kidney of Il1r1-deficient mice within a few hours upon infection, associated with localized hypoxia at infection foci. By showing that hypoxia promotes fungal growth and pathogenicity, our data suggest that IL-1R-signaling in non-hematopoietic cells is required to prevent fatal candidiasis by inhibiting a metabolic shift, including excessive oxidative phosphorylation and hypoxia.

IL-17RA promotes pathologic epithelial inflammation in a mouse model of upper respiratory influenza infection

Project description:The upper respiratory tract (nasopharynx or NP) is the first site of influenza replication, allowing the virus to disseminate to the lower respiratory tract or promoting community transmission. The host response in the NP regulates an intricate balance between viral control and tissue pathology. The hyper-inflammatory responses promote epithelial injury, allowing for increased viral dissemination and susceptibility to secondary bacterial infections. However, the pathologic contributors to influenza upper respiratory tissue pathology are incompletely understood. In this study, we investigated the role of IL-17RA as a modulator of influenza host response and inflammation in the upper respiratory tract. We used a combined experimental approach involving IL-17RA-/- mice and an air-liquid interface (ALI) epithelial culture model to investigate the role of IL-17 response in epithelial inflammation, barrier function, and tissue pathology. Our data show that IL-17RA-/- mice exhibited significantly reduced neutrophilia, epithelial injury, and viral load. The reduced NP inflammation and epithelial injury in IL-17RA-/- mice correlated with increased resistance against co-infection by Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn). IL-17A treatment, while potentiating the apoptosis of IAV-infected epithelial cells, caused bystander cell death and disrupted the barrier function in ALI epithelial model, supporting the in vivo findings.

An in vivo atlas of host-pathogen transcriptomes during Streptococcus pneumoniae colonization and disease

Project description:D’Mello et al. detail host-pathogen interaction gene expression profiles of Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) and its infected host at disease relevant anatomical sites using mice as experimental models. The authors identify the core and organ-specific transcriptomes of Spn, show that bacterial and host gene expression profiles are highly distinct during asymptomatic colonization versus disease-causing infection, and demonstrate that Spn and host genes with high levels of expression contribute to pathogenesis or host defense, respectively.

Gene expression in IL-17RA-deficient and wild-type mice following Giardia muris infection

Project description:To elucidate IL-17A-dependent immune mechanims involved in regulating host defense, we employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential of regulating protective immunity that failed to be upregulated in the absence of IL-17RA signaling. Whole small intestine tissue collected from IL-17RA-deficient and C57BL/6 (wild-type) mice was collected 2 weeks after Giardia muris infection and from uninfected controls. Expression levels of several genes that may have anti-parasitic potential (Defb1, Retnlb, Saa1, Saa2) and may be involved in parasite clearance were, on average, lower or unchanged in IL-17RA deficient compared to wild-type mice after infection. Two weeks after Giardia muris challenge, total RNA was extracted and analyzed from tissue of the small intestines of infected IL-17RA-deficient and wild-type mice, and compared to uninfected controls. Each sample contained equal amounts of total RNA from 6 female mice which were pooled and used in the experiment.

Pneumococcal H₂O₂ Reshapes Mitochondrial Function and Reprograms Host Cell Metabolism

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn), a primary cause of pneumonia, induces acute lung parenchymal damage through a unique metabolic pathway generating hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a byproduct. This study demonstrates that Spn-derived H2O2, primarily produced by pyruvate oxidase (SpxB), inhibits key tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle enzymes (aconitase, glutamate dehydrogenase, and α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase) in lung epithelial cells, leading to citrate accumulation and diminished NADH production for oxidative phosphorylation. RNA sequencing reveals SpxBdependent upregulation of glycolytic genes (HIF1A, IER3, HK2, PFKP), restricting pyruvate entry into the TCA cycle and increasing glucose consumption and lactate/acetate production, indicative of a Warburg-like metabolic shift that enhances bacterial survival. Notably, mitochondrial membrane potential remains largely preserved, with minimal apoptosis despite Spn-induced stress. These findings uncover a novel mechanism of Spn-driven host metabolic reprogramming, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for pneumococcal diseases.

RNA-seq of mouse ileum to investigate the role of IL-17 receptor signaling in Paneth cells in their biology and intestinal physiology

Project description:IL-17 receptor plays a major role in the antibacterial defense and regulation of host-microbiota interaction. However its impact on Paneth cells, cell-type specific for production of antibacterial peptides, is still not clear. Here, we used genetic depletion of IL-17 receptor specific for Paneth cell population (Defa6-iCre x Il17ra-flox) and performed the RNA sequencing on FACS-sorted Paneth cells and also complete ileum tissue, comparing Cre+ and Cre- littermates.

Inflammation of the Nasal Mucosa is Associated with Susceptibility to Experimental Pneumococcal Challenge in Older Adults

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae colonization in the upper respiratory tract is linked to pneumococcal disease development, predominantly affecting young children and older adults. As the global population ages and comorbidities increase, there is a heightened concern about this infection. We investigated the immunological responses of older adults to pneumococcal controlled human infection by analysing the cellular composition and gene expression in the nasal mucosa. Our comparative analysis with data from a concurrent study in younger adults revealed distinct gene expression patterns in older individuals susceptible to colonization, highlighted by neutrophil activation and elevated levels of CXCL9 and CXCL10. Unlike younger adults challenged with pneumococcus, older adults did not show recruitment of monocytes into the nasal mucosa following nasal colonization. However, older adults who were protected from colonization showed increased degranulation of CD8+ T cells, both before and after pneumococcal challenge. These findings suggest age-associated cellular changes, in particular enhanced mucosal inflammation, that may predispose older adults to pneumococcal colonization.

Differential role of IL-23 and IL-17 in intestinal regulation

Project description:Interleukin-23 (IL-23) and IL-17 are cytokines currently being targeted in clinical trials. Although inhibition of these cytokines is effective for treating psoriasis, IL-12/23 inhibition attenuates Crohn's disease, while IL-17A or IL-17RA inhibition exacerbates disease. This dichotomy between IL-23 and IL-17 was effectively modeled in the mdr1a- /- mouse model of colitis. IL-23 inhibition attenuated disease by decreasing colonic inflammation while enhancing Treg accumulation. Exacerbation of colitis by IL-17A or IL-17RA inhibition was associated with severe weakening of the intestinal epithelial barrier, culminating in increased colonic inflammation and accelerated mortality. These data show that IL-17A acts on intestinal epithelium to promote barrier function and provides insight into mechanisms underlying exacerbation of Crohn's disease when IL-17A or IL-17RA is inhibited.
