Project description:Among human DCs, the cDC2 subset represents the major human DC subset that is transcriptionally and functionally licensed for inflammasome responses as well as inflammasome formation in the absence of pyroptosis. These findings may allow for the development of new approaches in the field of adjuvant and vaccine development and define the human cDC2 subpopulation as a prime target for the treatment of inflammasome-dependent inflammatory diseases.

Project description:Hyperactivation of the NLRP3 inflammasome has been linked to disease progression in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the precise mechanisms behind this pathology remain elusive. Here, we highlight not only a significant correlation between elevated NLRP3 expression and diminished overall survival in AML patients, but also a potential pathomechanism. We show that genetic deletion and pharmacological inhibition of NLRP3 leads to a reduction in AML cell survival by triggering apoptosis. Additionally, our proteomic analyses revealed NLRP3-dependent alterations in protein translation, substantiated by increased eIF2α phosphorylation in NLRP3-deficient AML cells. Furthermore, we show that inhibition of the eIF2α kinase PERK mitigates eIF2α phosphorylation and decreases apoptosis by reducing the expression of pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members to levels comparable to those of wild-type cells. Substantiating these observations, we found that deleting NLRP3 in engrafted AML cells led to reduced splenomegaly and AML cell infiltration into organs in mice. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that blocking NLRP3 induces apoptosis via PERK/eIF2, revealing a promising avenue for therapeutic intervention in AML.

Project description:ZFYVE21 is a novel Rab5 effector involved in immune signaling whose functions in vivo are undefined. Using humanized mouse models and patient specimens, we describe a T cell-autonomous role for ZFYVE21 in promoting chronic inflammation. Following ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI), endothelial cells (ECs) produce Hedgehog (Hh) ligands. Hh ligands induce expression of ZFYVE21 in a “Ptchhi” cell population (CD3+CD4+CD45RO+Ptch1hiPD-1hi) that is highly responsive to Hh signaling and which display vigorous EC-mediated recruitment and effector responses in vivo. Mechanistically, following IFN-gamma-dependent priming, Hh-induced ZFYVE21 modulates T cell intrinsic, NLRP3 inflammasome activity in an Akt-dependent manner to allow IL-18-mediated potentiation of IFN-gamma responses. Hh-induced NLRP3 inflammasomes and T cell-specific ZFYVE21 augment vascular sequelae of chronic inflammation. Moreover, Ptchhi T cells highly expressing ZFYVE21 are expanded in IRI patients, and frequencies of these cells are modulated by Hh signaling. Hh-induced ZFYVE21 activates T cell intrinsic, NLRP3 inflammasomes to promote chronic inflammation.

Project description:Inflammasome, activated by pathogen-derived and host-derived danger signals, constitutes a multimolecular signaling complex that serves as a platform for caspase-1 (CASP1) activation and interleukin-1beta (IL1B) maturation. The activation of NLRP3 inflammasome requires two-step signals. The first “priming” signal (Signal 1) enhances gene expression of inflammasome components. The second “activation” signal (Signal 2) promotes the assembly of inflammasome components. Deregulated activation of NLRP3 inflammasome contributes to the pathological processes of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and multiple sclerosis (MS). However, at present, the precise mechanism regulating NLRP3 inflammasome activation and deactivation remains largely unknown. By genome-wide gene expression profiling, we studied the molecular network of NLRP3 inflammasome activation-responsive genes in a human monocyte cell line THP-1 sequentially given two-step signals. We identified the set of 83 NLRP3 inflammasome activation-responsive genes. Among them, we found the NR4A nuclear receptor family NR4A1, NR4A2, and NR4A3, the EGR family EGR1, EGR2, and EGR3, the IkappaB family NFKBIZ, NFKBID, and NFKBIA as a key group of the genes that possibly constitute a negative feedback loop for shutting down inflammation following NLRP3 inflammasome activation. By molecular network analysis, we identified a complex network of NLRP3 inflammasome activation-responsive genes involved in cellular development and death, and immune and inflammatory responses, where transcription factors AP-1, NR4A, and EGR serve as a hub. Thus, NLRP3 inflammasome activation-responsive genes constitute the molecular network composed of a set of negative feedback regulators for prompt resolution of inflammation. To load the Signal 1 (S1), THP-1 cells were incubated for 3 hours in the culture medium with or without inclusion of 0.2 microgram/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS). To load the Signal 2 (S2), they were incubated further for 2 hours in the culture medium with inclusion of 10 microM nigericin sodium salt dissolved in ethanol or the equal v/v% concentration of ethanol (vehicle), followed by processing for microarray analysis on Human Gene 1.0 ST Array (Affymetrix).

Project description:Immune response genes are disproportionately polymorphic in humans and mice, with heterogeneity amongst loci driving strain specific host defense responses. The inadvertent retention of polymorphic loci can confound results, lead to false conclusions, and delay scientific progress. By combining RNAseq and variant calling analyses, we identify a substantial region of 129S genome, including the highly polymorphic Nlrp1 locus proximal to Nlrp3, in one of the most commonly used mouse models of NLRP3 deficiency. We show that 129S NLRP1 can be tolerated at higher expression levels at steady-state, however this sensitizes Nlrp3-/- mice to NLRP1 inflammasome activation. Furthermore, the presence of 129S genome leads to altered gene and protein regulation across multiple cell-types, including of the key tissue-resident macrophage marker, TIM4. In order to resolve NLRP3 dependent phenotypes we validate a conditional Nlrp3 allele enabling temporal and cell-type specific control of NLRP3 deletion. Our study provides an accessible strategy to identify functionally relevant SNPs and assess genomic contamination in transgenic mice, to allow for unambiguous attribution of phenotypes to the target gene.

Project description:The NLRP3 inflammasome is a multi-protein complex that triggers the activation of the inflammatory protein caspase-1 and the maturation of the cytokine IL-1 in response to microbes and other danger signals in host cells. Here, we sought a deeper understanding of how the NLRP3 inflammasome is regulated. We found that inflammasome activation induced the Src family kinase Lyn to phosphorylate NLRP3 at Tyr918, and that this phosphorylation of NLRP3 correlated with a subsequent increase in its ubiquitination, which facilitated its proteasome-mediated degradation. NLRP3 tyrosine phosphorylation and ubiquitination was abrogated in Lyn-deficient macrophages, which produced increased amounts of IL-1. Furthermore, mice lacking Lyn were highly susceptible to LPS-induced septic shock in an NLRP3-dependent manner. Our data demonstrate that Lyn-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of NLRP3 is a prerequisite for its ubiquitination, thus dampening NLRP3 inflammasome activity.

Project description:Autophagy and autophagy-associated genes are closely linked to NLRP3-mediated inflammation in inflammatory disorders. This study determined that the functions of CCDC50, the novel autophagy receptor, in regulating the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and associated inflammatory diseases. We performed transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR) in shCtrl and shCCDC50 cells to evaluate the inflammatory responses regulated by CCDC50. The deep sequencing results showed that CCDC50 defciency caused increased NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and upregulation of associated disease pathways.
