THP-1 macrophage ubiquitinome after Mtb infection

ABSTRACT: 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.

Project description:Advancements in animal models and cell culture techniques have been invaluable in the elucidation of molecular events and mechanisms regulating muscle atrophy. However, few studies have examined muscle atrophy in humans using modern experimental techniques. The purpose of this study was to examine and validate changes in global gene transcription during immobilization-induced muscle atrophy in humans. Healthy men and women (N=24) were subjected to two weeks of unilateral limb immobilization, with muscle biopsies obtained before, and after 48 hours (48H) and 14 days (14D) of immobilization. Both muscle cross sectional area (~ 5 %) and strength (10-20 %) were significantly reduced in men and women after 14D of immobilization. Micro-array analysis of total RNA extracted from biopsy samples uncovered 575 and 3,128 probes representing multiple genes, which were significantly altered at 48H and 14D, respectively. As a group, genes involved in mitochondrial bioenergetics and carbohydrate metabolism were predominant features at both 48H and 14D, with genes involved in protein synthesis and degradation significantly down-regulated and up-regulated, respectively, at 14D of muscle atrophy. There was also a significant decrease in the protein content of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase, and the enzyme activity of cytochrome c oxidase and citrate synthase after 14D of immobilization. Furthermore, protein ubiquitination and oxidative damage were significantly increased by 48H and 14D of immobilization, respectively. These results suggest that transcriptional and post-transcriptional suppression of mitochondrial processes is sustained throughout 14D of immobilization, while protein ubiquitination plays an early but transient role in the progression of immobilization-induced muscle atrophy in humans. 72 samples taken from quadriceps of healthy ambulatory young men and women. Samples were taken at 3 timepoints throughout a 14 day period, the initial sample was taken at time 0 (PRECAST), then the limb was immobilized via a brace, and the 2nd sample was taken at 48 hours (CAST02D). The third sample was taken following 14 days of immobilization (CAST14D).

Project description:Background: Conflicting results have been reported about the role of the two-component sensor and transcriptional regulator DosS/DosR, controlling the expression of the dormancy DosR regulon, for in vivo virulence of M. tuberculosis. Here, we have used a new approach to further analyze the relevance of the dosRS system, by driving DosR (Rv3133c) expression under the control of a constitutive promoter (phsp60). Methodology/Principal Findings: M. tuberculosis H37Rv constitutively expressing the transcriptional regulator DosR (Mtb::DosR) was compared to wild type M. tuberculosis (Mtb+/+) for in vitro growth kinetics and expression of the target genes of the DosR dormancy regulon, for in vivo virulence and for immunogenicity in mice. Under aerobic conditions, hsp60-driven DosR induced the expression of 28 out of 39 tested DosR regulon genes. In vitro growth characteristics were comparable for both strains, but Mtb::DosR showed an attenuated in vivo phenotype in immunocompetent mice, as indicated by reduced bacterial replication, reduced pulmonary immunopathology, reduced cachexia and significantly prolonged survival time as compared Mtb+/+. In immunodeficient SCID mice, Mtb::DosR was fully virulent. RT-qPCR analysis revealed a strong and comparable pulmonary TNF-?? and IL-23 expression following intratracheal infection, whereas IL-12 and IL-17 expression was slightly higher with wild type Mtb+/+. Finally, mice persistently infected with Mtb::DosR for 8 months showed five to tenfold higher lung IFN-?? responses against ten of the 48 DosR regulon encoded antigens (Rv1733c, Rv1734, Rv1738, Rv1996, Rv1997, Rv2029c, Rv2623, Rv2627c, Rv2628 and Rv3127) than mice actively infected with Mtb+/+. In spleen however, DosR regulon encoded antigen specific IFN-?? responses were similar in both groups. Conclusions/Significance. Collectively, these results suggest that increased DosR regulon encoded antigen specific pulmonary T cell responses are responsible for the attenuated phenotype of Mtb::DosR and that infection with Mtb::DosR could be used as a new animal model for studying key aspects of latent tuberculosis.
