Posttranscriptional control of the neutrophil transcriptome by tristetraprolin promotes neutrophil apoptosis and compromises host antimicrobial defense

ABSTRACT: Posttranscriptional regulation of mRNA levels in neutrophils and its consequences for immune responses are unexplored. By employing profiling of the neutrophil transcriptome we show that the mRNA-destabilizing protein tristetraprolin (TTP) limits the expression of hundreds of genes, including genes negatively regulating apoptosis. Elicited TTP-deficient neutrophils exhibited reduced apoptosis and were increased in numbers. The anti-apoptotic protein Mcl-1 was elevated in TTP-deficient neutrophils and Mcl1 mRNA was bound and destabilized by TTP. Ablation of TTP in macrophages and neutrophils resulted in an improved defense and survival of mice during invasive infection with Streptococcus pyogenes. Mice lacking myeloid TTP prevented dissemination of bacteria and efficiently blunted systemic disease by massive but controlled neutrophil deployment. These data identify posttranscriptional control by TTP to restrict neutrophils and antimicrobial defense.

Tristetraprolin (TTP) regulated splenic transcriptome in "TTPΔARE" mice

Project description:Tristetraprolin (TTP) binds to specific AU-rich elements in the 3'UTR of certain transcripts and regulates post-transcriptional gene expression by increasing the rate of mRNA turnover. Here, we generated a novel TTP mouse line (TTPΔARE) with a 136 base deletion in the 3'UTR AU-rich region of TTP mRNA, which resulted in a moderate increase in TTP protein expression in many tissues. In this study, we evaluated the effects of the moderate TTP overexpression on the overall pattern of gene expression in spleen, to investigate the effect of this mutation on mRNA targets of TTP under normal conditions. We utilized "TTPΔARE" (136 b deletion in the 3'UTR AU-rich region of Zfp36 mRNA) mice that overexpress TTP and compared the transcriptomic changes to the littermate "WT" mice. Spleen mRNA from four WT and four "TTPΔARE" mice were subjected to mRNA-Seq. All the animals used in this study were males between the ages of 8-12 weeks and were on a C57BL/6 background.

Staphylococcus aureus stimulates neutrophil itaconate production that suppresses the oxidative burst

Project description:Neutrophils are critical in the host defense against Staphylococcus aureus, a major human pathogen. However, even in the setting of a robust neutrophil response, S. aureus can cause persistent infection. Here we demonstrate that S. aureus impairs neutrophil function by triggering the production of the anti-inflammatory metabolite, itaconate. The enzyme that synthesizes itaconate, Irg1, is selectively expressed in neutrophils during S. aureus pneumonia. Itaconate inhibits neutrophil glycolysis and oxidative burst, which impairs survival and bacterial killing. In a murine pneumonia model, neutrophil Irg1 expression protects critical lung cell populations from oxidative stress but compromises bacterial clearance. S. aureus is thus able to evade innate immune clearance by targeting neutrophil metabolism and inducing the production of the antiinflammatory metabolite itaconate.

Transcriptome analysis of CD16/CD62L neutrophil subsets during human experimental endotoxemia

Project description:During systemic inflammation, different neutrophil subsets are mobilized to the blood circulation. These neutrophil subsets can be distinguished from normal circulating neutrophils (CD16bright/CD62Lbright) based on either an immature CD16dim/CD62Lbright or a CD16bright/CD62Ldim phenotype. Interestingly, the latter neutrophil subset is known to suppress lymphocyte proliferation ex vivo, but the underlying mechanism is largely unknown. We performed transcriptome analysis on the different neutrophil subsets to identify changes that are relevant for their functions. Neutrophil subsets were isolated by FACS sorting from the blood of healthy volunteers who were administered a single dose of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The transcriptome was determined by microarray. The mobilized neutrophil subsets were characterized by specific transcriptome profiles reflecting their phase in neutrophil lifespan. Interestingly, the CD16bright/CD62Ldim suppressive neutrophils showed an interferon-induced transcriptome profile. This was confirmed by stimulation of peripheral neutrophils with IFNgamma. These cells acquired the capacity to suppress lymphocyte proliferation through the expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1). These data demonstrate that the suppressive phenotype of the neutrophil subset is induced by IFNgamma. Specific stimulation of neutrophils might have a pivotal role in regulating lymphocyte-mediated inflammation and autoimmune disease. After LPS infusion, blood was taken at t=0 and t=4 hours. Neutrophils were FACS sorted based on CD16 and CD62L expression. Gene expression of neutrophil subsets was assessed relative to t=0 as control.

Tristetraprolin disables prostate cancer maintenance by impairing proliferation and metabolic function

Project description:Tristetraprolin (TTP) is an RNA-binding protein that post-transcriptionally suppresses gene expression by delivering mRNA cargo to processing bodies (P-bodies) where the mRNA is degraded. TTP functions as a tumor suppressor in a mouse model of B cell lymphoma, and in some human malignancies low TTP expression correlates with reduced survival. Here we report important prognostic and functional roles for TTP in human prostate cancer. First, gene expression analysis of prostate tumors revealed low TTP expression correlates with patients having high-risk Gleason scores and increased biochemical recurrence. Second, in prostate cancer cells with low levels of endogenous TTP, inducible TTP expression inhibits their growth and proliferation, as well as their clonogenic growth. Third, TTP functions as a tumor suppressor in prostate cancer, as forced TTP expression markedly impairs the tumorigenic potential of prostate cancer cells in a mouse xenograft model. Finally, pathway analysis of gene expression data suggested metabolism is altered by TTP expression in prostate tumor cells, and metabolic analyses revealed that such processes are impaired by TTP, including mitochondrial respiration. Collectively, these findings suggest that TTP is an important prognostic indicator for prostate cancer, and augmenting TTP function would effectively disable the metabolism and proliferation of aggressive prostate tumors.

Comprehensive characterization of neutrophil genome topology

Project description:Neutrophils are responsible for the first line of defense against invading pathogens. Their nuclei are uniquely structured as multiple lobes that establish a highly constrained nuclear environment. Here we found that neutrophil genomes were depleted of local genomic interactions but enriched for long-range genomic interactions that spanned multiple topologically associating domains. Population-based simulation of spherical and torroid genomes revealed declining radii of gyration for neutrophil chromosomes. We found that neutrophil genomes were highly enriched for heterochromatic genomic interactions across vast genomic distances, a process named super-contraction. Super-contraction involved genomic regions located in the heterochromatic compartment in both progenitors and neutrophils or genomic regions that switched from the euchromatic to the heterochromatic compartment during neutrophil differentiation. Super-contraction was accompanied by the repositioning of centromeres, pericentromeres and Long-Interspersed Nuclear Elements to the neutrophil nuclear lamina. We found that Lamin-B Receptor expression was required to attach centromeric and pericentromeric repeats but not LINE-1 elements to the lamina. Differentiating neutrophils also repositioned rDNA and mini-nucleoli to the lamina: a process that was closely associated with sharply reduced rRNA expression. We propose that large-scale chromatin reorganization involving super-contraction and recruitment of heterochromatin and nucleoli to the nuclear lamina facilitate the folding of the neutrophil genome into a confined geometry imposed by a multi-lobed nuclear architecture.

BCL6 modulates tissue neutrophil survival and exacerbates pulmonary inflammation following influenza infection

Project description:Epidemics of influenza virus are of great challenges to the public concern. The lung inflammation and injury caused by excessive inflammatory cell infiltration into the lungs and overproduction of inflammatory mediators are major consequences during influenza virus infection. Neutrophils are vital for anti-microbial defense. However, the roles of neutrophils during viral infections are less clear. Furthermore, the molecular regulation of neutrophil fate and function at the viral infected sites is largely elusive. We found that BCL6 deficiency in neutrophils, but not in monocytes nor lung macrophages, attenuated host inflammation and morbidity following influenza infection. Mechanistically, BCL6 bound to the neutrophil gene loci involved in cellular apoptosis specifically at the site of infection. As such, BCL6 disruption resulted in increased expression of apoptotic genes in neutrophils in the respiratory tract, but not in the circulation nor bone marrow. Consequently, BCL6 deficiency promoted tissue neutrophil apoptosis. Our results have revealed a previously unappreciated role of BCL6 in modulating neutrophil apoptosis at the site of infection for the regulation of host disease development following viral infection.

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase cannot inhibit Chlamydia trachomatis growth in HL-60 human neutrophil granulocytes

Project description:Neutrophil granulocytes are the major cells involved in the Chlamydia trachomatis (C.trachomatis)-mediated inflammation and histopathology. A key gene in human intracellular antichlamydial defense is the tryptophan degrading enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), which limits the growth of the tryptophan auxotroph Chlamydia. Despite its importance, the role of IDO in the intracellular defense against Chlamydia in neutrophils has not yet been characterized. Affymetrix microarrays were used to obtain global gene expression data for monitoring the effect of C. trachomatis serovar D infection on the transcriptome of human neutrophil granulocytes.

Tristetraprolin (TTP) regulated splenic transcriptome in "Triple KO" mice

Project description:Tristetraprolin (TTP) binds to specific AU-rich elements in the 3'UTR of certain transcripts and regulates post-transcriptional gene expression by increasing the rate of mRNA turnover. In this study, we evaluated the effects of TTP deficiency on the overall gene expression of spleen tissue, in order to discover tissue specific targets of TTP under normal physiologic conditions. We utilized "Triple KO" (Zfp36-/-/TNFR1-/-/TNFR2-/-) mice that are deficient in TTP and two TNF receptors and compared the transcriptomic changes to "Double KO" (TNFR1-/-/TNFR2-/-) and WT mice. Spleen mRNA from four WT, four "Double KO", and four "Triple mice" was subjected to RNA-Seq in two phases. All the animals used in this study were males between the ages of 12-14 weeks and were on a mixed (75% C57BL/6NTac, 25% 129/SVEV) background.
