报告摘要：
The intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) form a robust line of innate host defence against ingested pathogens. IECs express a number of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs; e.g. TLR2 and TLR4), which enable the detection of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). As such, the pathogen - IEC interface constitutes the battle line between the host innate immune system and the pathogen’s counteracting virulence factors. We used the mouse pathogen Citrobacter rodentium, a model organism to study the human pathogens enteropathogenic and enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EPEC and EHEC), to investigate the impact of enteric infections on IEC metabolism, using global proteomic and targeted metabolomics and lipidomics. We found that C. rodentium infection results in repression of oxidative phosphorylation and a switch towards aerobic glycolysis. Consistently, there was a significant reduction in the levels of mature cardiolipins, lipids essential for generating the electrochemical gradient used for ATP production in the mitochondria. Concomitantly, the abundance of Gatm (glycine amidinotransferase), which utilises L-arginine as a substrate, was significantly elevated in infected IECs, leading to elevated levels of phosphocreatine that could efficiently distribute energy to subcellular sites. Using bioluminescent reporter strains we found that infection with wild type C. rodentium leads to increased oxygenation of the intestinal mucosal surface, supporting C. rodentium oxidative metabolism in vivo and reducing the abundance of obligate anaerobic commensals. Additionally, IECs responded to infection by activating Srebp2 and the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway (e.g. HMG-CoA reductase). Unexpectedly, infected IECs simultaneously up-regulated the cholesterol efflux proteins AbcA1 and AbcG8, as well as ApoA1 (involved in reverse cholesterol transport), resulting in higher levels of fecal cholesterol and a bloom of proteobacteria. These results suggest that C. rodentium manipulates host metabolism to evade innate immune responses (e.g. exposure to NO) and to establish a favourable gut ecosystem.
