Epigenetic regulation in epithelial cells and innate lymphocyte responses to S. Typhi infection: insights into IFN-γ production and intestinal immunity
2024
Overview
Infection by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi ( S . Typhi), the cause of enteric fevers, is low in high-income countries but persistent in low- and middle-income countries, resulting in 65,400-187,700 deaths yearly. Drug resistance, including in the United States, exacerbates this issue. Evidence indicates that innate lymphocytes (INLs), such as natural killer (NK) cells, and unconventional T lymphocytes ( e.g ., Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells and T-cell receptor gamma delta (TCR-γδ) cells) can impact the intestinal epithelial barrier, the primary site of exposure to S . Typhi. Moreover, INL production of IFN-γ is central in controlling S . Typhi infection. However, the impact of epithelial cells (EC) on the secretion of IFN-γ by INLs and the relationship between these events and epigenetic changes remains unknown. Epigenetic modifications in host cells are fundamental for their differentiation and function, including IFN-γ production. Herein, using a human organoid-derived polarized intestinal epithelial cell monolayer, we investigated the role of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 epigenetic marks in intestinal immunity, focusing on the function of EC, NK, MAIT, and TCR-γδ cells in response to S . Typhi. This study builds on our previous findings that MAIT subsets exhibiting specific IFN-γ pattern signatures were associated with protection against typhoid fever and that S . Typhi infection regulates changes in chromatin marks that depend on individual cell subsets. Here, we show that cultures exposed to S . Typhi without EC exhibit a significant increase in NK and MAIT cells, and, to a lesser extent, TCR-γδ cells, expressing IFN-γ and H3K4me3 but not H3K27me3 marks, contrasting with cultures where EC is present. The influence of EC on INL H3K4me3 marks might be indirectly mediated through the modulation of IL-18 secretion via the Histone Deacetylase 6 gene during S . Typhi infection.
