Systems analysis reveals alternate metabolic states adopted by Mycobacterium tuberculosis across species

ABSTRACT: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) persists within macrophages, yet how different host species shape bacterial state remains poorly understood. Here, we directly compared the intracellular transcriptome of Mtb during infection of human and mouse macrophages, revealing distinct host-imposed microenvironments that drive the pathogen into separable metabolic states. Lipid metabolism and regulatory circuits were prominently remodeled, with mouse macrophages inducing iron- and oxidative-stress responses while human macrophages promoted fatty acid import programs.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis-derived linoleic acid increases regulatory T cell function to promote bacterial survival within macrophages

Project description:<p>Regulatory T cells (Tregs) expand during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection and suppress T cell mediated control. Whether Mtb actively contributes to this process is unclear. Here, using a genome-wide mutant library, we show that expression of Mtb Rv1272c, an ATP-binding cassette transporter, increased under hypoxic condition, promotes Mtb survival in vivo by increasing lecithin import, followed by the production and release of linoleic acid. Linoleic acid released by infected macrophages promoted surface trafficking of the immune checkpoint molecule CTLA-4 in Tregs via the Ca²⁺ transporter ATP2a3. This in turn inhibited macrophage reactive oxygen species production and promoted Mtb survival inside macrophages. Rv1272c-induecd linoleic acid further promoted Mtb immune evasion via increasing CTLA-4 surface trafficking on Tregs in vivo. [AU please mention in vivo work on virulence as well] Mechanistically, linoleic acid interacts with ATP2a3 in Tregs and promotes mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane formation. This facilitates ER to mitochondrial Ca2+ transfer, depletion of Ca2+ in the ER, and triggers store-operated calcium entry, thus elevating cytosolic Ca2+ levels to increase Ca2+-dependent CTLA-4 surface trafficking in Tregs. These findings reveal that Mtb can use a metabolite to manipulate host responses and promote its intracellular survival.</p>

Impaired fatty acid import and metabolism in macrophages restricts intracellular growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection of macrophages reprograms cellular lipid metabolism to promote the formation of cytosolic lipid droplets. While it is clearly known that intracellular Mtb utilize host derived fatty acids and cholesterol to fuel a majority of its biosynthetic demands, the role of macrophage lipid metabolism on the bacteria’s ability to access the intracellular lipid pool remains controversial. We have utilized a CRISPR genetic knockdown approach to, systematically and comprehensively, characterize the role of macrophage fatty acid metabolism on the intracellular growth of Mtb. Our analyzes demonstrate that knockdown of lipid import, sequestration and metabolism genes collectively impair the intracellular growth of Mtb in macrophages. We further demonstrate that modulating fatty acids homeostasis in macrophages impair Mtb replication by enhancing production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, restricting the bacteria access to nutrients and increasing oxidative stress in a manner which is surprisingly divergent. We also demonstrate that impaired macrophage lipid droplet biogenesis is restrictive to intracellular Mtb growth. However, increased induction of lipid droplet formation by downstream blockade of fatty acid oxidation does not rescue the impaired Mtb growth phenotypes. Our work provides a characterization of macrophage fatty acid homeostasis and how its modulation impacts Mtb intracellular growth.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis resides in lysosome-poor monocyte-derived lung cells during chronic infection

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infects multiple lung myeloid cell subsets and persists despite innate and adaptive immune responses. However, the mechanisms allowing Mtb to evade elimination by these subsets are not fully understood. Here, we determined that four weeks post infection, after development of adaptive immune responses, CD11clo monocyte-derived lung cells termed MNC1 (mononuclear cell subset 1), harbor more live Mtb compared to alveolar macrophages (AM), neutrophils, and less permissive CD11chi MNC2. Bulk RNA-seq analysis for these subsets identified that lysosome biogenesis pathway is underexpressed in MNC1. Functional assays confirmed that Mtb-permissive MNC1 are deficient in lysosome content, lysosomal acidification, and lysosomal activity compared to AM, and have less nuclear TFEB, a master regulator of lysosome biogenesis. Mtb infection does not alter lysosome deficiency in MNC1. Instead, Mtb recruits MNC1 and MNC2 to the lungs for its spread from AM to these subsets, which depend on Mtb ESX-1 secretion system. Furthermore, nilotinib-mediated TFEB activation enhances lysosome function of primary macrophages in vitro, and MNC1 and MNC2 in vivo, improving control of Mtb infection. Our results suggest that Mtb exploits lysosome-poor monocyte-derived lung cells for persistence; targeting lysosome biogenesis may be an effective approach to host-directed therapy for tuberculosis, enabling permissive lung cells to restrict and kill Mtb through autophagy and other mechanisms.

Gene expression data from Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected WT and miR-155-/- bone-marrow derived macrophages [validation]

Project description:How the complex interaction between Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and the host is regulated during infection is still not well understood. Using a systems biology approach, we demonstrate here that miR-155 is one of several microRNAs that regulate host gene expression over the first 48 hours of Mtb infection in macrophages. miR-155 regulates the cell survival of Mtb-infected macrophages through SHIP1/AKT signaling. Using timecourse gene expression data, we constructed a miRNA regulatory network for the innate immune response to Mtb infection by WT macrophages. The network suggested a role for seven miRNAs in regulating the host response to Mtb, with miR-155 being one of them. We then validated a role for miR-155 by comparing the response between WT and miR-155-/- macrophages.

RNA Sequencing of macrophages harboring redox-diverse Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Project description:The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to tolerate antibiotics is a major impediment in the treatment of tuberculosis. This antibiotic tolerance is influenced by the host cells in which the bacteria reside, as Mtb senses host cues, and the bacterial response can provide an enhanced ability to withstand anti-TB drugs. Previouslyt, we have shown that Mtb exhibits redox heterogeneity in terms of its mycothiol redox potential (EMSH) giving rise to three broad subpopulations EMSH-reduced, EMSH-basal, and EMSH-oxidized Mtb specifically inside the macrophages. Among these, the EMSH-reduced Mtb exhibit enahnced tolerance to several anti-TB drugs while the EMSH-basal and EMSH-oxidized subpopulations are more susceptible. In this study, we explored the transcriptomic level differences between macrophages that harbor the antibiotic tolerant Mtb and those harboring antibiotic susceptible Mtb to get a mechanistic understanding of host factors that influence drug tolerance in intracellular Mtb.

Analyzing the impact of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection on primary human macrophages

Project description:The success of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) as pathogen is tightly linked to its ability to recalibrate host metabolic processes in infected host macrophages. Correspondingly, analysis of RNA-sequencing datasets showed altered gene expression of key metabolic enzymes involved in NAD+, creatine, glucose and glutamine metabolism (e.g NAMPT, IDO1, SLC6A8, CKB, HK2) in Mtb-infected M2 macrophages.

Effect of hypoxia on Mycobacterium tuberculosis-host phagocyte interactions

Project description:Mtb appears to have developed specialized biomolecular infrastructure to survive and persist within granulomas, where it is subjected to a diverse set of stress conditions. One of these stress conditions is hypoxia. We hypothesized that host cell response is radically altered with hypoxia stressed Mtb and designed in-vitro experiments to study this phenomenon. Hypoxia-stressed as well as aerobically grown Mtb were used to infect rhesus macaque bone marrow derived macrophages (Rh-BMDMs) and the host global transcriptional response compared. Using 4 x44 k Agilent arrays specific for rhesus macaque genome, we tested in biological duplicate the effect of aerogically grown Mtb on rhesus macaque BMDMs and compared this to the corresponding effect of the hypoxia-conditioned Mtb on rhesus macaque BMDMs

MtrA regulation of essential peptidoglycan cleavage in Mycobacterium tuberculosis during infection [pH]

Project description:The success of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is largely due to its ability to withstand numerous stresses imposed by host immunity. Here, we present a data-driven model that captures these adaptive mechanisms and reveals the dynamic interplay of host-derived stresses and genome-encoded regulatory programs in Mtb. The model captures the genome-wide distribution of cis-acting gene regulatory elements and the conditional influences of transcription factors at those elements to elicit environment-specific responses. Analysis of transcriptional responses that may be essential for Mtb’s survival in acidic conditions identified regulatory control by the MtrAB two-component signal system. This data is a comparison of transcriptional differences (RNA-seq) between low pH (pH 5.6) and neutral pH (pH7) of Mtb

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.
