Project description:Fowlpox virus (here as FP9, a plaque-purified, high passage-attenuated derivative) effectively suppresses induction of the âinnateâ immune responses, notably the Type I interferon system, of the permissive host (chicken). Despite the extensive usage of fowlpox virus as a recombinant vaccine vector in chickens, its immunomodulatory mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study, a transcriptomic analysis using the Affymetrix GeneChip chicken genome array was performed at the host gene transcription level at 4, 8, 16 and 24 hours post-infection of mock treated and FP9-infected (MOI=5, 2h) chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF). The experiment was performed in triplicate with three different batches of CEFs. Because fowlpox virus is capable of expressing antigens in mammalian cells, these studies in chicken cells form a baseline for subsequent study of immunomodulation of mammalian innate immune responses.

Project description:The ADAR RNA editing enzymes deaminate adenosine bases to inosines in cellular RNAs, recoding open reading frames. Human ADAR1 mutations cause Aicardi-Goutieres Syndrome (AGS) and Adar1 mutant mice showing an aberrant interferon response and death by embryonic day E12.5 model the human disease. Searches have not identified key ADAR1 RNA editing sites recoding immune/haematopoietic proteins but editing is widespread in Alu sequences. We show that Adar1 embryonic lethality is rescued in Adar1; Mavs double mutant mice in which general antiviral responses to cytoplasmic dsRNA are prevented. We propose that inosine bases are epigenetic marks identifying cellular RNA as innate immune ÒselfÓ. Consistent with this idea we show that an editing-active cytoplasmic ADAR is required to prevent aberrant immune responses in Adar1 mutant mouse embryo fibroblasts. No dramatic increase in repetitive transcripts is observed. AGS mutations in ADAR1 affect editing by the interferon-inducible cytoplasmic ADAR1 isoform.

Project description:Mechanisms through which the microbiome communicates with the systemic immune system remain unclear. We have identified a family of microbiome Bacteroidota-derived lipopeptides – the serine-glycine (S/G) lipids, and specifically L654 – that are TLR2 ligands, access the systemic circulation, and potentially link the microbiome and systemic innate immunity. We have previously postulated that L654 and the S/G lipids regulate systemic innate immunity by entering the systemic circulation and mediating weak TLR2 interactions that maintain “normal” levels of innate immune signaling feedback inhibitors. In proof-of-concept studies, we reported that increasing systemic L654 levels in mice by administering exogenous L654 intravenously significantly diminishes systemic innate immune responses and attenuates murine autoimmunity. In the present study, our goal was to confirm the role of the microbiome in mediating this mode of immunoregulation by decreasing the microbiome-based production of S/G lipids. We now report that decreasing microbiome Bacteroidota in mice using a specific oral antibiotic/rest protocol reduces fecal and plasma S/G lipids levels and significantly enhances systemic innate immune responses. Replenishing systemic levels of S/G lipids after antibiotic treatment through exogenous administration of L654 returns innate immune responses to normal levels, confirming the regulatory role of S/G lipids in this mode of microbiome regulation. Finally, RNAseq analysis of splenic monocytes derived from antibiotic-treated and control mice with or without exogenous L654 prior to ex vivo stimulation demonstrates that the antibiotic/rest protocol and the concomitant decrease in microbiome S/G lipids and Bacteroidota has significant downregulatory effects on normal homeostatic pro-inflammatory pathways. These effects are also associated with downregulation of specific proinflammatory pathway inhibitors, which may suggest a potential mechanism underlying the enhancement in ex vivo innate immune stimulated responses of these monocytes. Overall, our results suggest that S/G lipids are microbiome-derived bacterial factors capable of regulating systemic innate immunity and as such are manipulatable targets with therapeutic potential for enhancing or decreasing innate immunity in the context of infectious, malignant, and autoimmune diseases.

Project description:Understanding the mechanisms of host macrophage responses to M. tuberculosis (M.tb.) is essential for uncovering potential avenues of intervention to boost host resistance to infection. Macrophage transcriptome profiling revealed M.tb. infection strongly induced expression of several enzymes controlling tryptophan (Trp) catabolism. This included indole 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO2), which catalyze the rate-limiting step in the kynurenine pathway, producing ligands for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). The AHR and heterodimeric partners AHR nuclear translocator (ARNT) and RELB are robustly expressed, and AHR and RELB levels further increased during infection. Infection enhanced AHR/ARNT and AHR/RELB DNA binding, and stimulated expression of AHR target genes, including that encoding the inflammatory cytokine IL1beta. AHR target gene expression was further enhanced by exogenous kynurenine, and exogenous Trp, kynurenine or synthetic agonist indirubin reduced mycobacterial viability. Comparative expression profiling revealed that AHR ablation diminished expression of numerous genes implicated in innate immune responses, including several cytokines. Notably, AHR depletion reduced expression of IL23A and IL12B transcripts, which encode subunits of interleukin 23 (IL23), a macrophage cytokine that stimulates production of IL22 by innate lymphoid cells. The AHR directly induced IL23A transcription in human and mouse macrophages through near-upstream enhancer regions. Taken together, these findings show that AHR signaling is strongly engaged in Mtb-infected macrophages, and has widespread effects on innate immune responses. Moreover, they reveal a cascade of AHR-driven innate immune signaling, as IL1B (IL-1β) and IL23 stimulate T cell subsets producing IL22, another direct target of AHR transactivation.

Project description:Salmonella causes inflammation in infected hosts. Inflammation is a well-characterized defensive mechanism of innate immunity. The recognition and engagement of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) endotoxins in the outer membranes of Salmonella to Toll-like receptor 4 of immune cells (macrophages and dendritic cells) trigger inflammatory responses characterized by secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including TNF-beta, IL-1 and IL-6. These cytokines cause fever, anorexia, bodyweight losses, and catabolism of skeletal muscles and adipose tissues. However, molecular events underlying innate immune responses and metabolic activities during the later stage of inflammation are poorly understood. Additionally, the effects of prebiotics and antibiotics on innate immunity and nutrient metabolism are not yet reported. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of a mannanoligosaccharide (MOS) prebiotic and virginiamycin (VIRG) sub-therapeutic antibiotic on innate immunity and glucose metabolism during late inflammation. We induced Salmonella LPS-systemic inflammation in a chicken model. Differentially regulated gene expressions were measured using 2 colour focussed oligonucleotide chicken-specific microarrays. Microarray analysis was performed on liver, intestinal and skeletal muscle tissues. We found that late inflammation was principally modulated by interleukin 3 (IL 3) and that glucose was mobilized from gluconeogenesis occurring in the intestines only. MOS and VIRG modulated innate immunity and metabolic genes differently. In contrast to VIRG, MOS terminated inflammatory responses earlier. Our results indicate IL 3 gene up-regulation in VIRG-fed chickens. To meet the higher energy requirements of VIRG chickens, genes for intestinal gluconeogenesis and liver glycolysis were respectively induced. Our study reveals the potential mechanisms by which prebiotic and antibiotic modulated innate immunity and glucose metabolism during late inflammation. 14-day old chickens were injected i.p. with saline or LPS. For each tissue and experimental conditions (saline or LPS challenge), a total of 12 microarrays (6 MOS birds + 6 VIRG birds) were used in a 2 x 2 factorial design and complete interwoven loop arrangement. We compared gene expression from prebiotic-fed birds with antibiotic-fed birds without including reference RNA. LPS challenge, antibiotic or prebiotic, innate immunity, glucose metabolism

Project description:Interferonopathies drive autoimmunity but can also impair host responses to pathogens including viral infection. To better understand viral susceptibility of patients with STAT1 gain-of-function (GOF) mutations, we generated conditional-knockin mouse models to elucidate disease mechanisms and relevance of different immune subsets. Virally infected Stat1-GOF mice exhibited impaired early IFN-γ production from innate lymphocytes, and lethality due to excess prolonged multi-cytokine production. The presence of the Stat1-GOF allele resulted in premature usage of interferon-stimulated gene factor 3 (ISGF3) over the normal Stat4/AP-1 dependent transcriptomic program in activated innate lymphocytes. Administration of anti-IFN-γantibodies in wild-type (WT) mice after infection phenocopied Stat1-GOF mice presenting exaggerated inflammation despite viral control. Conversely, early administration of exogenous IFN-γ to infected Stat1-GOF mice prevented lethality and exaggerated cytokine response.Although Stat1-GOF mutations facilitate IFN-γ-mediated autoimmunity, early IFN-γ response to viral infection via a normal Stat4 program was impaired, leading to overcompensated inflammatory responses in Stat1-GOF mice.
