Genome-wide transcriptional profiling of Legionella Pneumophila-infected A549 cells transfected with siRNA against TNFAIP2

ABSTRACT: In this study we transfected A549 cells with siRNA against TNFAIP2, infected them with L. pneumophila and performed transcriptional profiling. We found enrichment of genes in pro-inflammatory pathways by Pathway Over-respresentation analysis upon infection. There was no significant change in gene expression that we could attribute specifically to the knockdown of TNFAIP2.

Genome-wide mapping of H4Ac in Legionella pneumophila-infected human macrophages

Project description:In this study we infected human blood-derived macrophages with L. pneumophila and used immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-Seq) to screen gene promoters for the activating histone 4 acetylation mark. We found about 500 genes with induced acetylation upon infection, including several pro-inflamatory and inflamatory factors and non-coding RNAs. In particular, we assess the functional consequences of tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 2 (TNFAIP2), a factor not yet characterized in the pathology of L.pneumophila, on bacterial replication.

Symbiont-mediated defense against Legionella pneumophila in amoebae

Project description:Legionella pneumophila are important opportunistic pathogens for which environmental reservoirs such as protists are crucial for the infection of humans. Free-living amoebae are considered key hosts providing nutrients and shelter for highly efficient intracellular proliferation of L. pneumophila, which eventually leads to lysis of the amoeba host cell. Yet, the significance of other bacterial players for L. pneumophila ecology is poorly understood. In this study we used a ubiquitous amoeba and their bacterial endosymbiont to investigate the impact of this common association on L. pneumophila infection. We demonstrate that Acanthamoeba castellanii harboring the chlamydial symbiont Protochlamydia amoebophila were able to erase L. pneumophila and, in contrast to symbiont-free amoebae, survived the infection and were able to resume growth. Environmental amoeba isolates harboring P. amoebophila were equally well-protected, and fresh environmental isolates of L. pneumophila were equally well-erased, suggesting ecological relevance of this symbiont-mediated protection. We further show that protection was not mediated by impaired L. pneumophila uptake. Instead, we observed reduced virulence of L. pneumophila released from symbiont-containing amoebae that is strongly supported by transcriptome data. Interference with transition to the transmissive phase is thus likely the basis for this protection. Finally, our data indicate that the defensive response of amoebae harboring P. amoebophila leaves the amoebae with superior fitness reminiscent of immunological memory. Given that mutualistic associations between bacteria and amoebae are widely distributed, P. amoebophila and potentially other amoeba endosymbionts could be key elements in shaping environmental survival, abundance and virulence of this important pathogen thereby affecting frequency of human infection.

Detection of predicted small RNA of Legionella pneumophila

Project description:Legionella pneumophila is a gram-negative opportunistic human pathogen that infects and multiplies in a broad range of phagocytic protozoan and mammalian phagocytes. Based on the observation that small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) play an important role in controlling virulence-related genes in several pathogenic bacteria, we attempted to test the hypothesis that sRNAs play a similar role in L. pneumophila. We used computational prediction followed by experimental verification to identify and characterize sRNAs encoded in the L. pneumophila genome. A 50-mer probe microarray was constructed to test the expression of predicted sRNAs in bacteria grown under a variety of conditions. This strategy successfully identified 22 expressed RNAs, out of which six were confirmed by northern blot and RACE. One of the identified sRNAs is highly expressed when the bacteria enter post exponential phase and computational prediction of its secondary structure reveals a striking similarity to the structure of 6S RNA, a widely distributed prokaryotic sRNA, known to regulate the activity of σ70-containing RNAP. A 70-mer probe microarray was used to identify genes affected by L. pneumophila 6S RNA in stationary phase. The 6S RNA encoded by the ssrS gene positively regulates expression of genes encoding type IVB secretion system effectors, stress response genes such as groES and recA as well as many genes with unknown or hypothetical functions. Deletion of 6S RNA significantly reduced L. pneumophila intracellular multiplication in both protist and mammalian host cells, but had no detectable effect on growth in rich media.

Legionella pneumophila transcriptome during intracellular multiplication in human macrophages

Project description:Legionella pneumophila is the causative agent of Legionnaires’ disease, an acute pulmonary infection. L. pneumophila is able to infect and multiply in both phagocytic protozoan, such as Acanthamoeba castellanii, and mammalian professional phagocytes. The best-known virulence determinant used by L. pneumophila to infect host cells is a Type IVb translocation system named Icm/Dot, which is used to modify the host cell functions to the benefit of the bacteria. To date the Icm/Dot systeme is known to translocate more than 100 effectors. While the transcriptional response of Legionella to the intracellular environement of A. castelannii as already been investigated, much less is known of how Legionella reacts transcriptionnally inside human macrophages. In this study, the transcriptome of L. pneumophila was monitored during exponential and post-exponential phase in rich AYE broth and during infection of human cultured macrophages by using microarray and a RNA amplification procedure called SCOTS to allow for the study of conditions of low bacterial loads. Among the genes induced intracellularly are those involved in amino acid synthesis pathway leading to L-arginine, L-histidne and L-proline as well as many transport system involved in amino acid and iron uptake. The Icm/Dot systems is not differentially expressed inside cells compare to the E phase control but the effectors are strongly induced. The intracellular transcriptome was further used to identify putative new Icm/Dot effectors and translocation was show to occur for 3 of them. This study provides a comprehensive view of how L. pneumophila react to the human macrophages intracellular environment.
