Project description:Innate immune responses vary by pathogen and host genetics. We generated transcriptomes of monocytes from 215 individuals, with and without stimulation (3h or 6h) by fungal, Gram-negative or Gram-positive bacterial pathogens. Monocytes showed a conserved response to bacterial pathogens and a distinct antifungal response. Mapping expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) identified 745 response eQTLs (reQTLs) and corresponding genes showing pathogen-specific effects. Compared to all differentially expressed genes, reQTL-regulated genes were more frequently upregulated, indicating cell-activating gene regulation. ReQTL-regulated gene products are essential in NOD-like, C-type lectin, Toll-like and complement receptor-signaling pathways. ReQTLs functionally characterize risk variants identified through genome-wide association studies for autoimmunity, inflammatory or infectious diseases and cancer. Thus, in addition to the transcriptional response of monocytes, their genetic regulation differs for bacterial and fungal pathogens. ReQTLs help explain interindividual variation in immune response to infection and provide candidate genes for variants associated with a range of diseases.

Project description:Innate immune responses vary by pathogen and host genetics. We analyze quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) and transcriptomes of monocytes from 215 individuals stimulated by fungal, Gram-negative or Gram-positive bacterial pathogens. We identify conserved monocyte responses to bacterial pathogens and a distinct antifungal response. These include 745 response eQTLs (reQTLs) and corresponding genes with pathogen-specific effects, which we find first in samples of male donors and subsequently confirm for selected reQTLs in females. reQTLs affect predominantly upregulated genes that regulate immune response via e.g., NOD-like, C-type lectin, Toll-like and complement receptor-signaling pathways. Hence, reQTLs provide a functional explanation for individual differences in innate response patterns. Our identified reQTLs are also associated with cancer, autoimmunity, inflammatory and infectious diseases as shown by external genome-wide association studies. Thus, reQTLs help to explain interindividual variation in immune response to infection and provide candidate genes for variants associated with a range of diseases.

Project description:Our present findings show for the first time that the virulence factor PPAD protects the oral pathogen P. gingivalis against neutrophil insults at three distinct levels, namely phagocytosis, NETosis and CAMP activity. This identifies PPAD as a major agent in the evasion of human innate immunity, a view that is supported by studies from Potempa and co-workers showing PPAD-dependent citrullination of complement.

Project description:microRNA-126 is a microRNA predominately expressed by endothelial cells and controls angiogenesis. Unexpectedly, we found that mice deficient in miR-126 have a major impairment in their innate response to pathogen-associated nucleic acids, as well as HIV, which results in more widespread cell infection. Further examination revealed that this was due to miR-126 control of plasmacytoid DC (pDC) homeostasis and function, and that miR-126 regulates expression of TLR7, TLR9, NFkB1 and other innate response genes, as well as VEGF-receptor 2 (VEGFR2). Deletion of VEGFR2 on DCs resulted in reduced interferon production, supporting a role for VEGFR2 in miR-126 regulation of pDCs. These studies identify the miR-126/VEGFR2 axis as an important regulator of the innate response that operates through multiscale control of pDCs. Plasmactyoid dendritic cells were FACS-sorted from spleens from wildtype and miR-126 KO mice and their RNA extracted. RNA was amplified, labeled and hybridized to Mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays with the data generation and quality control pipeline of 19 the Immunological Genome Project (www.immgen.org). Raw data were background-corrected and normalized using the RMA algorithm.

Project description:Aging leads to dysregulation of multiple components of the immune system that result in increased susceptibility to infections and poor response to vaccines in the aging population. The dysfunctions of adaptive T- and B-cells are well documented but the effect of aging on innate immunity remains incompletely understood. Therefore, we first undertook transcriptional profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and found that PBMCs isolated from old individuals (≥65 yrs) exhibited a delayed and altered response to stimulation with TLR4, TLR7/8, and RIG-I agonists compared to cells obtained from adults (≤40 yrs). This delayed response to innate immune agonists resulted in the reduced production of pro-inflammatory and antiviral cytokines and chemokines including TNFα, IL-6, IL-1β, IFNα, IFNγ, CCL2 and CCL7. While the major monocyte and dendritic cell subsets did not change numerically with aging, activation of specific cell types was altered. We observed old PBMCs had a lower frequency of CD40+ monocytes, impaired up-regulation of PD-L1 on monocytes and T cells and increased expression of PD-L2 and B7-H4 on B cells. The defective innate immune response adversely affected adaptive immunity as TLR-stimulated PBMCs (minus CD3 T cells) from old subjects’ elicited significantly lower levels of adult T cell proliferation than those from adult subjects in an allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). Collectively, these age-associated changes in cytokine, chemokine and interferon production, as well as co-stimulatory protein expression, could be responsible for the blunt memory B and T cell immune responses to vaccines and infections.

Project description:Our present findings show for the first time that the virulence factor PPAD protects the oral pathogen P. gingivalis against neutrophil insults at three distinct levels, namely phagocytosis, NETosis and CAMP activity. This identifies PPAD as a major agent in the evasion of human innate immunity, a view that is supported by studies from Potempa and co-workers showing PPAD-dependent citrullination of complement29. Why is this important? Every day, millions of people lose teeth due to periodontitis. This has a serious impact on their quality of life, not only for aesthetic reasons but much more so because tooth loss causes difficulties in eating and interferes with interpersonal communication. Yet, only few people realize that there is a major bacteriological component in periodontitis where our immune defences are breached with potentially serious implications, especially systemic and chronic diseases ranging from bacteraemia to rheumatoid arthritis.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in American men and women with ≥130,000 new cases each year. Several dietary patterns have been associated with CRC risk but underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Researchers thus propose to integrate dietary patterns and metabolomics data to comprehensively investigate biological pathways linking dietary patterns and CRC risk.

Project description:In childhood immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), anti-platelet autoantibodies mediate platelet clearance through Fc-γ receptor (FcγR)-bearing phagocytes. In 75% to 90% of patients, the disease has a transient, self-limiting character. Here we characterized how polymorphisms of FcγR genes affect disease susceptibility, response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) treatment, and long-term recovery from childhood ITP. Genotyping of the FCGR2/3 locus was performed in 180 children with newly diagnosed ITP, 22 children with chronic ITP, and 180 healthy control children by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. Children with newly diagnosed ITP were randomly assigned to a single administration of IVIg or observation, and followed for 1 year (Treatment With or Without IVIg for Kids With ITP [TIKI] trial). We defined transient ITP as a complete recovery (≥100 × 109/L) 3 months after diagnosis, including both self-limiting disease/IVIg responders and chronic ITP as absence of a complete recovery at 12 months. ITP susceptibility, as well as spontaneous recovery and response to IVIg, was associated with the genetic variants FCGR2C*ORF and FCGR2A*27W and the FCGR2B promoter variant 2B.4. These variants were overrepresented in patients with transient (N = 131), but not chronic (N = 43), disease. The presence of FCGR2C*ORF predisposed to transient ITP with an odds ratio of 4.7 (95% confidence interval, 1.9-14.3). Chronic ITP was associated with a deletion of FCGR2C/FCGR3B (copy number region 1) with an odds ratio of 6.2 (95% confidence interval, 1.8-24.7). Taken together, susceptibility to transient and chronic ITP is distinctly affected by polymorphic variants of FCGR2/3 genes. Our data suggest that genotyping of the FCGR2/3 locus may be useful for prognosis and guidance of treatment decisions in newly diagnosed childhood ITP.
