项目摘要
PROJECT SUMMARY
The colon contains tryptophan derivatives such as indole, which is a microbiota-derived signaling molecule, and
the host-derived serotonin neurotransmitter that is primarily synthesized in the GI tract. Indole is also known to
be absorbed by host cells and helps strengthen the integrity of the intestinal barrier, being regarded as a
beneficial chemical cue within microbial/host interactions. Indole is synthesized by tryptophanase, which is
encoded by the tnaA gene. We have shown that the concentration of indole is significantly higher in the lumen
of the colon (the compartment where the microbiota resides) compared to colonic tissues (where indole is
absorbed by intestinal epithelial cells). Serotonin is synthesized in enterochromaffin cells by the enzyme
tryptophan hydroxylase (TpH1). Upon its synthesis, serotonin is released into the lamina propria and is secreted
into the lumen. Serotonin signaling in the intestinal mucosa is terminated by removal of serotonin by the
serotonin selective reuptake transporter (SERT), which is expressed by epithelial cells. We showed that both
serotonin and indole converge to decrease virulence gene expression from enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)
and Citrobacter rodentium, a murine pathogen employed as a surrogate animal model for EHEC. We also
identified the bacterial receptor for these signals as CpxA. Upon sensing serotonin and/or indole, CpxA
functions primarily as a phosphatase, dephosphorylating itself and CpxR, that activates virulence in its
phosphorylated state. Through transcriptome studies we also identified the Indole Sequestering Receptor (Isr),
which in the absence of indole directly activates virulence expression. However, in the presence of indole, Isr is
no longer able to activate transcription of virulence genes. Using TpH1 pharmacological inhibitors (decrease the
levels of serotonin in the gut) and SERT knockout mice (have increased levels of luminal serotonin), we showed
that the presence of higher levels of serotonin in the intestine of mice decreased virulence in C. rodentium,
while decreased levels of serotonin are conducive to increased pathogenesis. Moreover, we synthetically
altered the concentration of indole in the GI tract of mice. This allowed us to assess the role of self-produced
versus microbiota-produced indole, and show that decreased indole concentrations promote bacterial
pathogenesis, while increased levels of indole decreases bacterial virulence gene expression during murine
infection. Altogether, both serotonin and indole decrease virulence of C. rodentium during murine infection. Our
studies show that fluctuations in the levels of indole and the serotonin neurotransmitter significantly impact
disease prognosis. However several questions regarding this exquisite signaling regulation of bacterial
virulence remain unanswered. Consequently the specific aims of this grant are: Aim 1. Define the CpxA/CpxR
and Isr serotonin/indole signaling cascade. Aim 2. Investigate the intersection of serotonin with endogenous
and exogenous indole signaling in bacterial pathogenesis during mammalian infection.
项目摘要
结肠含有色氨酸衍生物,例如吲哚,这是微生物群的信号分子,并且
宿主衍生的5-羟色胺神经递质主要在GI区域合成。吲哚也已知
被宿主细胞吸收并有助于增强肠壁的完整性,被视为一个
微生物/宿主相互作用中的有益化学提示。吲哚是由色氨酸酶合成的
由TNAA基因编码。我们已经表明,管腔中的吲哚浓度明显更高
与结肠组织相比,结肠(菌群居住的隔室)

色氨酸羟化酶(TPH1)。一旦合成,5-羟色胺被释放到椎板上,被分泌
进入管腔。肠粘膜中的5-羟色胺信号传导通过去除5-羟色胺的终止
5-羟色胺选择性再摄取转运蛋白(SERT),由上皮细胞表达。我们证明了这两个
5-羟色胺和吲哚会融合以降低肠肠癌大肠杆菌(EHEC)的毒力基因表达

将这些信号的细菌受体鉴定为CPXA。感觉到5-羟色胺和/或吲哚,CPXA
主要用作磷酸酶,脱磷酸化和CPXR,激活其毒力
磷酸化状态。通过转录组研究,我们还确定了吲哚隔离受体(ISR),
在没有吲哚的情况下,这直接激活毒力表达。但是,在吲哚的存在下,ISR为
不再能够激活毒力基因的转录。使用TPH1药理学抑制剂(减少
肠道中的5-羟色胺水平)和SERT敲除小鼠(腔羟色胺的水平增加),我们表明
小鼠肠道中较高水平的5-羟色胺的存在降低了啮齿动物的毒力,
而5-羟色胺水平降低有利于发病机理增加。而且,我们合成
改变了小鼠胃肠道中吲哚的浓度。这使我们能够评估自我生产的作用
与微生物群产生的吲哚相比,表明吲哚浓度降低会促进细菌

研究表明,吲哚和5-羟色胺神经递质水平的波动显着影响
