Project description:Microbial components have a range of direct effects on the fetal brain. However, little is known about the cellular targets and molecular mechanisms that mediate these effects. Neural progenitor cells (NPCs) control the size and architecture of the brain and understanding the mechanisms regulating NPCs is crucial to understanding brain developmental disorders. We identify ventricular radial glia (vRG), the primary NPC, as the target of bacterial cell wall (BCW) generated during the antibiotic treatment of maternal pneumonia. BCW enhanced proliferative potential of vRGs by shortening the cell cycle and increasing self-renewal. Expanded vRGs propagated to increase neuronal output in all cortical layers. Remarkably, Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), which recognizes BCW, localized at the base of primary cilia in vRGs and the BCW-TLR2 interaction suppressed ciliogenesis leading to derepression of Hedgehog (HH) signaling and expansion of vRGs. We also show that TLR6 is an essential partner of TLR2 in this process. Surprisingly, TLR6 alone was required to set the number of cortical neurons under healthy conditions. These findings suggest that an endogenous signal from TLRs suppresses cortical expansion during normal development of the neocortex and that BCW antagonizes that signal through the TLR2/cilia/HH signaling axis changing brain structure and function.

IMPORTANCE Fetal brain development in early gestation can be impacted by transplacental infection, altered metabolites from the maternal microbiome, or maternal immune activation. It is less well understood how maternal microbial subcomponents that cross the placenta, such as bacterial cell wall (BCW), directly interact with fetal neural progenitors and neurons and affect development. This scenario plays out in the clinic when BCW debris released during antibiotic therapy of maternal infection traffics to the fetal brain. This study identifies the direct interaction of BCW with TLR2/6 present on the primary cilium, the signaling hub on fetal neural progenitor cells (NPCs). NPCs control the size and architecture of the brain and understanding the mechanisms regulating NPCs is crucial to understanding brain developmental disorders. Within a window of vulnerability before the appearance of fetal immune cells, the BCW-TLR2/6 interaction results in the inhibition of ciliogenesis, derepression of Sonic Hedgehog signaling, excess proliferation of neural progenitors, and abnormal cortical architecture. In the first example of TLR signaling linked to Sonic Hedgehog, BCW/TLR2/6 appears to act during fetal brain morphogenesis to play a role in setting the total cell number in the neocortex.

Project description:Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a pattern recognition receptor that, upon ligation by microbial molecules, interacts with other proteins to initiate pro-inflammatory responses by the cell. Statins (hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors), drugs widely prescribed to reduce hypercholesterolemia, are reported to have both pro- and anti-inflammatory effects upon cells. Some of these responses are presumed to be driven by effects on signaling proteins at the plasma membrane, but the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. We reasoned that profiling the effect of statins on the repertoire of TLR2-interacting proteins might provide novel insights into the mechanisms by which statins impact inflammation. In order to study the TLR2 interactome, we designed a co-immunoprecipitation (IP)-based cross-linking proteomics study. A hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged-TLR2 transfected HEK293 cell line was utilized to precipitate the TLR2 interactome upon cell exposure to the TLR2 agonist Pam3CSK4 and simvastatin, singly and in combination. To stabilize protein interactors, we utilized two different chemical cross-linkers with different spacer chain lengths. Proteomic analysis revealed important combinatorial effects of simvastatin and Pam3CSK4 on the TLR2 interactome. After stringent data filtering, we identified alpha-centractin (ACTR1A), an actin-related protein and subunit of the dynactin complex, as a potential interactor of TLR2. The interaction was validated using biochemical methods. RNA interference studies revealed an important role for ACTR1A in induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Taken together, we report that statins remodel the TLR2 interactome, and we identify ACTR1A, a part of the dynactin complex, as a novel regulator of TLR2-mediated immune signaling pathways.

Project description:Chitin is the second most abundant polysaccharide in nature and a biomolecule intimately linked to fungal infection and allergic asthma, conditions that affect millions of patients worldwide. Chitin is known to stimulate multiple mammalian immune cells, but the precise molecular sensing mechanism has not been elucidated, hampering strategies to specifically target chitin-mediated pathologies. The study associated with this microarray dataset uses defined chitin oligomers to identify six chitin subunits as the smallest immunologically active chitin motif and the innate immune receptor TLR2 as the molecular chitin sensor on human and murine immune cells, in vitro and in vivo. The goal of this microarray dataset was to elucidate transcriptional differences of human whole blood cells when responding to chitin, to other TLR2 ligands (Pam2, Pam3), and furthermore to the TLR4 ligand LPS. All four stimulants are compared to each other and to the unstimulated whole blood samples as a reference. We conclude that chitin oligomers elicitd overlapping yet distinct signaling outcomes compared to canonical TLR2 ligands.

Project description:In the present study, RNA-seq were performed To identify clinical relevance of PLAUR, a putative Serpin E1 receptor, in cutaneous itch signaling and crosstalk pathways with other critical itch modulators.mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using MGISEQ-2000. Our experiment showed Serpin E1-treatment further led to a marked upregulation of TLR2 transcript in mDRG neurons, along with enhanced transcription of cosignaling proteins belonging to pro-inflammatory signaling pathways including NF-κB signaling proteins. We next investigated the consequence of TLR2 activation in mTGNs using the TLR agonists, Pam3CSK4 (TLR1/2 agonist), FSL-1 (TLR2/6 agonist), or vehicle. Among these transcripts, TLR2 was found upregulated strongest by both TLR2 agonists suggesting a selfenhancing feedback loop of TLR2 activation.The PLAUR-TLR2 axis promotes cutaneous inflammation and itch, both feeding into an aggravation of AD. This finding might help us to better understand the skin-nerve communication in itch circuits.

Project description:The interaction between monocytes and endothelial cells in inflammation is central to chemoattraction, adhesion, and transendothelial migration. Key players such as selectins and their ligands, integrins and other adhesion molecules and their function in these processes are well studied. Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), expressed on monocytes, is critical for sensing invading pathogens and initiating a rapid and effective immune response. However, the extended role of TLR2 in monocyte adhesion and migration has only been partially elucidated. To address this question, we performed several functional cell-based assays using monocyte-like wild type (WT), TLR2-knock-out (KO) and, TLR2-knock-in (KI) THP-1 cells. We found that TLR2 promotes faster and stronger adhesion of monocytes to the endothelium and a more intense endothelial barrier disruption after endothelial activation. In addition, we performed quantitative mass-spectrometry, STRING protein analysis, and RT-qPCR, which revealed the association of TLR2 with specific integrins, but also uncovered novel proteins affected by TLR2. In conclusion, we could show that unstimulated TLR2 affects cell adhesion, endothelial barrier disruption, migration, and actin polymerization.
