Mitochondrial STAT3-mediated suppression of apoptosis constrains antimycobacterial immunity

ABSTRACT: Maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis is required to balance the host-pathogen interface during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection of macrophages. Here, we implicate the non-canonical TRIM family member TRIM14 in regulating mitochondrial health during Mtb infection. Specifically, we show that TRIM14 constrains apoptosis by maintaining a mitochondrial pool of STAT3. TRIM14-dependent mito-STAT3 limits mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, thereby preserving mitochondrial integrity and raising the threshold for apoptotic commitment. In the absence of TRIM14, increased STAT3 Ser754 phosphorylation reduces mitochondrial STAT3 localization, promoting mPTP opening and apoptosis. In vivo, Trim14 deficiency enhances apoptosis during Mtb infection and is associated with increased CD8+ T cell activation, consistent with apoptotic cell-driven antimycobacterial immunity. Together, these findings define a TRIM14–mito-STAT3 axis that suppresses protective apoptosis during Mtb infection and pinpoint mito-STAT3 as a potential target for host-directed tuberculosis therapies.

A bacterial effector manipulates host lysosomal protease activity-dependent plasticity in cell death modalities to facilitate infection

Project description:Crosstalk between cell death programs confers appropriate host anti-infection immune responses, but how pathogens remodel this network to facilitate their infections remain largely unclear. Here, we identify mammalian cell entry 3C (Mce3C) as a key regulator of host cell death from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), which causes tuberculosis featured with lung inflammation and necrosis. Mce3C binds host lysosomal protease cathepsin B (CTSB), which acts as a decision-maker of cell death modalities, to inhibit the protease activity of CTSB towards BH3-interacting domain death agonist (BID) and receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), thus preventing the production of pro-apoptotic truncated BID (tBID) while maintaining the abundance of pro-necroptotic RIPK1. Disrupting the Mce3C-CTSB interaction promotes host apoptosis and suppresses necroptosis with attenuated Mtb survival and mitigated lung inflammation in mice. These findings reveal a unique strategy by which the pathogen manipulates host lysosomal protease activity-dependent plasticity between cell death pathways to promote infection and pathogenicity.

Metabolic transcriptional profile of virulent Mtb-infected human AM

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)-induced shifts in macrophage metabolism are an accepted central infection paradigm. Mtb-infected murine lung tissue exhibits gene expression changes consistent with classic Warburg metabolism and Mtb-infected murine macrophages undergo TCA cycle remodeling. Human macrophages also respond energetically to Mtb infection, however, interestingly the phenotypic nature of this response appears to vary depending on the viability of infection. Despite the overwhelming consensus that metabolic changes are critical to the host response to infection, we have little understanding of the metabolic transcriptional landscape of virulent Mtb-infected human alveolar macrophages (AM), the sentinel pulmonary immune cell during Mtb infection. Further still, whether the human AM undergoes glycolytic reprogramming and TCA cycle remodeling during virulent Mtb infection remains undefined; as is suggested to occur in circulating Mtb-infected human macrophages. Here, we aimed to characterise the metabolic transcriptional profile of virulent Mtb-infected human AM. We hypothesised that infection would induce the transcriptome of Warburg metabolism (characterised by aerobic glycolysis), TCA cycle remodeling, and reduce expression of genes involved in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS).

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.

THP-1 macrophage ubiquitinome after Mtb infection

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), capable of manipulating and circumventing the host's immune system to establish infection. Ubiquitination plays a crucial role in the host's response to pathogens; however, the global alterations in protein ubiquitination during Mtb infection remain poorly understood. To elucidate the regulatory roles of ubiquitination in the immune response to Mtb, we investigated the ubiquitome of human macrophages following Mtb infection.

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.

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.

Activation of STAT3-mediated ciliated cell survival protects against severe infection by respiratory syncytial virus

Project description:Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) selectively targets ciliated cells in human bronchial epithelium and can cause bronchiolitis and pneumonia mostly in infants. To identify molecular targets of intervention during RSV infection in infants, we investigate how age regulates RSV interaction with the bronchial epithelium barrier. Employing precision-cut lung slices and air-liquid interface cultures generated from infant and adult human donors, we found robust RSV virus spread and extensive apoptotic cell death only in infant bronchial epithelium. In contrast, adult bronchial epithelium showed insignificant barrier damage and limited RSV infection. Single nuclear RNA-sequencing revealed age-related insufficiency of an anti-apoptotic STAT3 activation response to RSV infection in infant ciliated cells, which was exploited to facilitate virus spread via the extruded apoptotic ciliated cells carrying RSV. Activation of STAT3 and blockade of apoptosis rendered protection against severe RSV infection in infant bronchial epithelium. Lastly, apoptotic inhibitor treatment of a neonatal mouse model of RSV infection ameliorated infection and inflammation in the lung. Taken together, our findings identify a STAT3-mediated anti-apoptosis pathway as a target to battle severe RSV disease in infants.

Infection of monocytes from tuberculosis patients with two virulent clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis induces alterations in myeloid effector functions.

Project description:Monocytes play a critical role during infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). They are recruited to the lung where they participate in the contention of infection. Alternatively, inflammatory monocytes may help in prolonging inflammation or serve as niches for Mtb infection. Also, monocyte response to infection may vary depending on the particularities of the clinical isolate of Mtb from which they are infected. In this pilot study, using microarrays we have examined the global mRNA profiles of circulating human monocytes from healthy individuals and patients with active tuberculosis (TB).

SIRT7 induces cytoskeletal remodelling via RAC1 to enhance host resistance to Mtb

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) secretes several virulence determinants that alter phagosome biogenesis, enabling its survival within the cell. Nevertheless, the mechanism underlying this process remains considerably obscure. Here, we have identified a novel regulatory mechanism whereby SIRT7 mediates Rac1 activation in cytoskeletal remodelling during Mtb infection. We found that SIRT7 are significantly decreased during Mtb infection in both mRNA and protein levels. SIRT7 deficiency impairs macrophage phagocytosis and bacteriacidal activity by disrupts actin cytoskeleton dynamics. In the murine TB model, the deficiency of Sirt7 had an adverse effect on the host's response to Mtb since it led to an increase in bacterial burden and inflammation in the lung. Conversely, the overexpression of Sirt7 impeded bacterial growth. Mechanistically, we have shown that SIRT7 limits Mtb infection by directly interacting with and activating RAC1. Therefore, we conclude that SIRT7 is responsible for driving cytoskeletal remodeling through RAC1, thus providing crucial insight into host response during Mtb infection and offering a potential target for tuberculosis treatment.
