Project description:Bats are a major reservoir of zoonotic viruses, and there has been growing interest in characterizing bat-specific features of innate immunity and inflammation. Recent studies have revealed bat-specific adaptations affecting interferon (IFN) signaling and IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), but we still have a limited understanding of the genetic mechanisms that have shaped the evolution of bat immunity. Here we investigated the transcriptional and epigenetic dynamics of transposable elements (TEs) during the type I IFN response in little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus) primary embryonic fibroblast cells, using RNA-seq and CUT&RUN. We found multiple bat-specific TEs that undergo both locus-specific and family-level transcriptional upregulation in response to IFN. Our transcriptome reassembly identified multiple ISGs that have acquired novel exons from bat-specific TEs, including NRLC5, SLNF5 and a previously unannotated isoform of the IFITM2 gene. We also identified examples of TE-derived regulatory elements, but did not find strong evidence supporting genome-wide epigenetic activation of TEs in response to IFN. Collectively, our study uncovers numerous TE-derived transcripts, proteins, and alternative isoforms that are induced by IFN in Myotis lucifugus cells, highlighting potential candidate loci that contribute to bat-specific immune function.

Project description:We compared the proteomic profile of blood plasma in healthy and white-nose syndrome affected Myotis lucifugus in order to identify patho-physiological changes associated with the disease. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry we identified differentially expressed proteins for acute phase response, constitutive and adaptive immunity, oxidative stress defense, metabolism and structural proteins of exosomes and desmosomes, suggesting a systemic response against Pseudogymnoascus destructans infection in a North American bat species.

Project description:Bats are remarkably long-lived for their size with many species living more than 20-40 years, suggesting that they possess efficient anti-aging and anti-cancer defenses. Here we investigated requirements for malignant transformation in primary bat fibroblasts in four bat species - little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus), big brown bat (Eptesicus fuscus), cave nectar bat (Eonycteris spelaea) and Jamaican fruit bat (Artibeus jamaicensis) – spanning the bat evolutionary tree and including the longest-lived genera. We show that bat fibroblasts do not undergo replicative senescence and express active telomerase. Bat cells displayed attenuated stress induced premature senescence with a dampened secretory phenotype. Unexpectedly, we discovered that bat cells could be readily transformed by only two oncogenic perturbations or “hits”: inactivation of either p53 or pRb and activation of oncogenic RASV12. This was surprising because other long-lived mammalian species require up to five hits for malignant transformation. Additionally, bat fibroblasts exhibited increased p53 and MDM2 transcript levels, and elevated p53-dependent apoptosis. The little brown bat showed a genomic duplication of the p53 gene. We hypothesize that bats evolved enhanced p53 activity through gene duplications and transcriptional upregulation as an additional anti-cancer strategy, similar to elephants. In summary, active telomerase and the small number of oncogenic hits sufficient to malignantly transform bat cells suggest that in vivo bats rely heavily on non-cell autonomous mechanisms of tumor suppression.

Project description:Bats are natural hosts for a wide diversity of viruses. While many of these viruses are highly pathogenic in humans, most do not appear to cause major symptoms in bats. These modern bat-specific characteristics are the result of past virus-host (co)evolution and virus-driven host adaptations. Innate immunity is the first line of defense against viruses in mammals, we aim at characterizing bat innate immunity in response to viruses. Using genome-wide and gene candidate evolutionary analyses, we found that many bat antiviral genes have undergone multiple duplication events in a lineage-specific manner, specifically in the Myotis bat lineage. We focus on Myotis yumanensis as a model in the Myotis lineage. We performed transcriptomic analyses and observed the upregulation of most mammalian genes implicated in the different steps of the innate immune response from sensing to interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), showing the conservation of the core innate immunity. Our study will contribute to identifying adaptations that shaped bat innate immunity. These adaptations may contribute to the bat-virus specificity and influence viral emergence to another mammalian host
