I ABSTRACT ABSTRACT Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are associated with compositional and functional changes of the intestinal microbiota, but specific contributions of individual bacteria to chronic intestinal inflammation remain unclear. Enterococcus faecalis is a resident member of the human intestinal core microbiota that has been linked to the pathogenesis of IBD and induces chronic colitis in susceptible monoassociated IL10-deficient (IL-10-/-) mice. In this study, we characterized the colitogenic activity of E. faecalis as part of a simplified microbial consortium based on human strains (SIHUMI). RNA sequencing analysis of E. faecalis isolated from monoassociated wild type and IL-10-/- mice identified 408 genes including 14 genes of the ethanolamine utilization (eut) locus to be significantly upregulated in response to inflammation. Despite considerable upregulation of eut genes, deletion of ethanolamine utilization (∆eutVW) had no impact on E. faecalis colitogenic activity in monoassociated IL-10-/- mice. However, replacement of the E. faecalis wild type bacteria by a ∆eutVW mutant in SIHUMI-colonized IL-10-/- mice resulted in exacerbated colitis, suggesting protective functions of E. faecalis ethanolamine utilization in complex bacterial communities. To better understand E. faecalis gene response in the presence of other microbes, we purified wild-type E. faecalis cells from the colon content of SIHUMI-colonized wild type and IL10-/- mice using immuno-magnetic separation and performed RNA sequencing. Transcriptional profiling revealed that the bacterial environment reprograms E. faecalis gene expression in response to inflammation, with the majority of regulated genes not being shared between monocolonized and SIHUMI conditions. While in E. faecalis monoassociation a general bacterial stress response could be observed, expression of E. faecalis genes in SIHUMI-colonized mice was characterized by up- regulation of genes involved in growth and replication. Interestingly, in mice colonized with SIHUMI lacking E. faecalis enhanced inflammation was observed in comparison to SIHUMI-colonized mice, supporting the hypothesis that E. faecalis ethanolamine metabolism protects against colitis in complex consortia. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that complex bacterial consortia interactions reprogram the gene expression profile and colitogenic activity of the opportunistic pathogen E. faecalis towards a protective function. II ZUSAMMENFASSUNG ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Chronisch entzündliche Darmerkrankungen gehen mit kompositionellen und funktionellen Veränderungen der Darmmikrobiota einher, allerdings ist der spezifische Beitrag einzelner Bakterien zum entzündlichen Geschehen weitgehend unklar. Enterococcus faecalis ist ein residentes Mitglied der menschlichen Darmkernmikrobiota, das mit der Pathogenese chronisch entzündlicher Darmerkrankungen in Verbindung gebracht wird und chronische Kolitis in suszeptiblen monoassoziierten IL10-defizienten (IL-10-/-) Mäusen induziert. In dieser Studie haben wir die kolitogene Aktivität von E. faecalis als Teil eines vereinfachten mikrobiellen Konsortiums basierend auf menschlichen Stämmen (SIHUMI) charakterisiert. Eine RNA-Sequenzierungsanalyse von E. faecalis Zellen, die aus monoassoziierten Wildtyp- und IL-10-/--Mäusen isoliert wurden, identifizierte 408 Gene, darunter 14 Gene des Ethanolaminverwertungs-Locus (eut), die als Reaktion auf Entzündungen signifikant hochreguliert werden. Trotz erheblicher Hochregulierung der eut-Gene hatte die Deletion der Ethanolaminverwertung (∆eutVW) keinen Einfluss auf die kolitogene Aktivität von E. faecalis in monoassoziierten Mäusen. Der Austausch des E. faecalis Wildtyp-Stammes durch eine ∆eutVW- Mutante in SIHUMI-kolonisierten IL-10-/--Mäusen führte jedoch zu einer Verschlimmerung der Entzündung. Dies deutet auf eine protektive Funktion der Ethanolaminverwertung durch E. faecalis in einer komplexen Gemeinschaft hin. Um die Genexpression von E. faecalis in Gegenwart anderer Mikroben besser zu verstehen, haben wir Wildtyp-E. faecalis-Zellen aus dem Darminhalt von SIHUMI-kolonisierten Wildtyp- und IL-10-/-- Mäusen mittels immunomagnetischer Trennung isoliert und mittels RNA-Sequenzierung analysiert. Die transkriptionelle Analyse ergab, dass das bakterielle Umfeld die Genexpression von E. faecalis in Reaktion auf Entzündungen neu programmiert. Nur ein kleiner Teil der regulierten Gene waren sowohl in E. faecalis in Monoassoziation, als auch in Co-Kolonisation mit dem SIHUMI Konsortium parallel reguliert. Während bei monoassoziiertem E. faecalis eine allgemeine Stressreaktion beobachtet werden konnte, war das Expressionsprofil von E. faecalis in SIHUMI kolonisierten Mäusen durch Gene gekennzeichnet, die an Wachstum und Replikation beteiligt sind. Interessanterweise führte die Kolonisation von IL-10-/- Mäusen mit SIHUMI unter Ausschluss von E. faecalis zu einer Verschlimmerung des inflammatorischen Phänotyps. Dies unterstützt die Hypothese, dass E. faecalis als Mitglied eines komplexen Konsortiums durch die Verwertung von Ethanolamin eine protektive Funktion in suszeptiblen IL-10-/- Mäusen vermittelt. Abschließend zeigt diese Studie, dass Interaktionen mit einem komplexen bakteriellen Konsortium das Genexpressionsprofil und die kolitogene Aktivität des opportunistischen Pathogens E. faecalis in Richtung einer protektiven Aktivität umprogrammieren.

In times of nutrient deficiency, the cell can self-digest and recycle some nonessential components through nonselective autophagy, thus sustaining minimal growth requirements until a food source becomes available. Over recent years, autophagy has been implicated in an increasing number of clinical scenarios, notably infectious diseases, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and autoimmunity. The recent identification of the importance of autophagy genes in the genetic susceptibility to Crohn ’ s disease suggests that a selective autophagic response may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of common complex immune-mediated diseases. In this review, we discuss the autophagic mechanisms, their molecular regulation, and summarize their clinical relevance. This progress has led to great interest in the therapeutic potential of manipulation of both selective and nonselective autophagy in established disease. INTRODUCTION The ability to adapt to environmental change is essential for sur- Autophagy encompasses several distinct processes involving vival. This is true for the organism as a whole and for individual the delivery of portions of the cytoplasm to the lysosome for cells alike.

Wolf *, Wolfgang Hilt Institut fu¨r Biochemie, Universita¨t Stuttgart, Pfaffenwaldring 55, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany Available online 26 October 2004 Abstract The final destination of the majority of proteins that have to be selectively degraded in eukaryotic cells is the proteasome, a highly sophisticated nanomachine essential for life. 26S proteasomes select target proteins via their modification with polyubiquitin chains or, in rare cases, by the recognition of specific motifs. They are made up of different subcomplexes, a 20S core proteasome harboring the proteolytic active sites hidden within its barrel-like structure and two 19S caps that execute regulatory functions. Similar complexes equipped with PA28 regulators instead of 19S caps are a variation of this theme specialized for the production of antigenic peptides required in immune response. Structure analysis as well as extensive biochemical and genetic studies of the 26S proteasome and the ubiquitin system led to a basic model of substrate recognition and degradation. Recent work raised new concepts. Additional factors involved in substrate acquisition and delivery to the proteasome have been discovered. Moreover, first insights in the tasks of individual subunits or subcomplexes of the 19S caps in substrate recognition and binding as well as release and recycling of polyubiquitin tags have been obtained.

  • Deficiency in Class III PI3-Kinase Confers Postnatal Lethality with IBD
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-05105-8 OPEN Deficiency in class III PI3-kinase confers postnatal lethality with IBD-like features in zebrafish Shaoyang Zhao1,2,3, Jianhong Xia2,3, Xiuhua Wu2,3, Leilei Zhang2,3, Pengtao Wang2,3, Haiyun Wang2,3, Heying Li2, Xiaoshan Wang 2, Yan Chen 2, Jean Agnetti2, Yinxiong Li 2, Duanqing Pei2,3 & Xiaodong Shu2,3 The class III PI3-kinase (PIK3C3) is an enzyme responsible for the generation of phospha- tidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P), a critical component of vesicular membrane. Here, we report 1234567890():,; that PIK3C3 deficiency in zebrafish results in intestinal injury and inflammation. In pik3c3 mutants, gut tube forms but fails to be maintained. Gene expression analysis reveals that barrier-function-related inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) susceptibility genes (e-cadherin, hnf4a, ttc7a) are suppressed, while inflammatory response genes are stimulated in the mutants. Histological analysis shows neutrophil infiltration into mutant intestinal epithelium and the clearance of gut microbiota. Yet, gut microorganisms appear dispensable as mutants cultured under germ-free condition have similar intestinal defects. Mechanistically, we show that PIK3C3 deficiency suppresses the formation of PI3P and disrupts the polarized dis- tribution of cell-junction proteins in intestinal epithelial cells. These results not only reveal a role of PIK3C3 in gut homeostasis, but also provide a zebrafish IBD model. 1 School of Life Sciences, University of Science and Technology of China, 230027 Hefei, Anhui, China. 2 CAS Key Laboratory of Regenerative Biology, Guangzhou Institute of Biomedicine and Health-Guangzhou Medical University Joint School of Biological Sciences, South China Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, Guangzhou Institutes of Biomedicine and Health, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 510530 Guangzhou, China.

The process of glycan modification is directed by different glycosyltransferases, depending on the cell in which it is expressed. These small carbohydrate molecules consist of multiple glycan families that facilitate cell–cell interactions, protein interactions, and downstream signaling. An alteration of several types of O-glycan core structures have been implicated in multiple cancers, largely due to differential glycosyltransferase expression or activity. Consequently, aberrant O-linked glycosylation has been extensively demonstrated to affect biological function and protein integrity that directly result in cancer growth and progression of several diseases.

  • Ifng-Induced Irgm1 Promotes Tumorigenesis of Melanoma Via Dual Regulation of Apoptosis and Bif-1-Dependent Autophagy
    Oncogene (2015) 34, 5363–5371 © 2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/15 www.nature.com/onc ORIGINAL ARTICLE IFNg-induced Irgm1 promotes tumorigenesis of melanoma via dual regulation of apoptosis and Bif-1-dependent autophagy H Dong1,2,5, L Tian1,5,RLi3,CPei1,YFu1, X Dong1, F Xia1, C Wang1,WLi1, X Guo1,CGu1,BLi1, A Liu4, H Ren1, C Wang2 and H Xu1 Interferon gamma (IFNg) has been known as the regulator for both tumor immune surveillance and tumorgenesis. However, mechanisms underlying the resistance of tumor cell to IFNg have yet been fully understood. In the current study, we showed that immunity-related GTPase family member 1 (mouse: Irgm1; human: IRGM) is essential for IFNg-mediated regulation of tumor cell growth in melanoma. IRGM/Irgm1 was highly expressed in human and mouse melanoma. IFNg and starvation synergistically induced Irgm1 expression in melanoma B16 cells. In vivo, injection of Irgm1-siRNA-treated cells significantly reduced the number of tumor nodules and prolonged the mice survival. In vitro, knockdown endogenous or IFNg-induced Irgm1 significantly decreases the proliferation and increases apoptosis of B16 cells. In addition, suppressing Irgm1 decreased the IFNg/starvation-induced autophagy, while overexpressing Irgm1 significantly increased autophagy and rescued starvation-challenged cells. Moreover, IFNg and starvation-induced the co-localization of Irgm1 with Bax-interacting factor 1 (Bif-1). Knockdown of Bif-1 decreased Irgm1-mediated tumor cell autophagy. Taken together, these data reveal an Irgm1-dependent mechanism that promotes the tumorigenesis of melanoma via dual regulation of apoptosis and Bif-1-dependent autophagy.
