Parasitic helminths repress the canonical intestinal stem cell program

ABSTRACT: The intestinal helminth parasite Heligmosomoides polygyrus initiates infection in mice by penetrating the duodenal mucosa, where it develops while surrounded by a multicellular granulomatous infiltrate before emerging into the intestinal lumen. We examined early H. polygyrus infection to assess the epithelial response to disruption of the mucosal barrier. Unexpectedly, intestinal stem cell markers, including Lgr5 and Olfm4, were completely lost in crypts overlying larvae-associated granulomas. We sought to identify the mechanism by which the H. polygyrus granuloma represses the activity of intestinal stem cells.

NanoString analysis of mouse granulomas induced by H. polygyrus infection

Project description:Heligmosomoides polygyrus larvae induce a strong intestinal granuloma response within their murine host, which has been associated with resistance. Immune cells, mostly alternatively activated macrophages and eosinophils, accumulate around the tissue encysted parasites to immobilize and damage/kill developing worms. In a one dose (bolus) experimental infection, infected C57Bl/6 mice are unable to clear parasites which results in chronic infection with high worm burdens. However, using a frequent dose trickle model of infection, we, like others, have found that C57Bl/6 mice can clear infection. The nanoString data included here measure the expression of key myeloid genes within the granuloma tissue from bolus and trickle infections. Our results highlight the importance of the granuloma in the host’s ability to clear H. polygyrus and emphasise the need to study this key tissue in more depth, rather than using correlates such as general intestinal or systemic responses.

Genome-wide expression analysis of the effects of a parasitic nematode's secreted exosomes on mammalian cells.

Project description:We show that a gastrointestinal nematode that infects mice, Heligmosomoides polygyrus, secretes vesicles packaged with specific microRNAs (miRNAs) and Y RNAs as well as a nematode-specific Argonaute protein. The vesicles are of intestinal origin and are enriched for homologs of mammalian proteins found in exosomes, including heat shock proteins, tetraspanins and an ESCORT protein. The nematode-derived vesicles are internalized by mouse intestinal epithelial cells and mediate changes in expression of host genes involved in inflammation and immunity, including the receptor for the alarmin IL33 as well as a key regulator of MAPK signaling, DUSP1. A total of 12 samples were analyzed, from 4 different conditions: medium, exosome-treated, LPS and LPS+exosomes, each with 3 biological replicates. One of the 'medium' replicates was discarded due to outlier behaviour.

RNAseq of murine small intestinal organoid cultures treated with Type 1 (IFNg) or Type 2 (IL4+IL13) cytokines in the presence or absence of excretory/secretory (ES) products of the helminth parasite Heligmosomoides polygyrus

Project description:Heligmosomoides polygyrus is a natural intestinal parasite of mice which exerts wide ranging modulatory effects on the immune system. This experiment was designed to investigate its abillity to modify intestinal epithelial cells, which form part of its natural niche. We tested gene expression in vitro, in differentiating organoids of small intestinal origin, exposed to cytokines and the released products of the parasite, termed HpES.

Regulation of intestinal immunity and tissue repair by enteric glia (Single-cell expression analysis of small intestinal glia cells in naïve and H. poly-infected mice.)

Project description:Tissue maintenance and repair depend on the integrated activity of multiple cell types. Whereas the contributions of epithelial, immune and stromal cells in intestinal tissue integrity are well understood, the role of intrinsic neuroglia networks remains largely unknown. Here, we uncover pivotal roles of enteric glial cells (EGCs) in intestinal homeostasis, immunity and tissue repair. We demonstrate that infection of mice with Heligmosomoides polygyrus (H. poly) leads to enteric gliosis and upregulation of the interferon gamma (IFN-γ) gene signature. Single-cell transcriptomics of tunica muscularis (TM) showed that glia-specific abrogation of IFN-γ signaling leads to tissue-wide activation of pro-inflammatory transcriptional programs. In addition, disruption of the IFN-γ-EGC signaling axis enhanced the inflammatory and granulomatous response of TM to helminths. Mechanistically, we show that upregulation of Cxcl10 is an early immediate response of EGCs to IFN-γ signaling and provide evidence that this chemokine and the downstream amplification of IFN-γ signaling in the TM are required for a measured inflammatory response to helminths and resolution of granulomatous pathology. Our study demonstrates that IFN-γ signaling in enteric glia is central to intestinal homeostasis and reveals critical roles of the IFN-γ-EGC-Cxcl10 axis in immune response and tissue repair following infectious challenge. To characterize the response of enteric glia to helminth infection at single cell resolution, we next performed scRNAseq (C1 Fluidigm platform) of tdT+ cells from the TM of naïve and H. poly-infected mice.

Intestinal tissues (duodenum) from wild-type (BALB/c) and MIF deficient mice were compared in the steady state and at two different time points (day 3 and day 7) following infection with the gastrointestinal helminth parasite Heligmosomoides polygyrus

Project description:We have found that macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is essential for the development of effective immunity to the intestinal helminth Heligmosomoides polygyrus, even following vaccination which induces sterile immunity in wild-type mice. In the context of a Type 2 infection, MIF plays a critical role in polarizing macrophages into the protective alternatively-activated phenotype, and that STAT3 signaling may make a previously unrecognized contribution to immunity to helminths.
