Multi-omics data compendium: Data package 17 (Pck017)

In type 1 diabetes (T1D), autoimmune response and inflammation cause the death of pancreatic ß cells, leading to the body’s inability to produce insulin and maintain glucose homeostasis. This process is at least in part mediated by pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interferon (IFN)a, IFN?, interleukin (IL)-1ß, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)a, which induce ß-cell dysfunction and apoptosis. A deep understanding of the ß-cell signaling and regulatory networks induced by these cytokines could lead to the identification of therapeutic targets to prevent T1D development. To study cytokine-mediated islets/ß-cell signaling and regulatory networks, a variety of omics experiments have been conducted, including transcriptomics, epigenomics (DNA methylation, UMI-4C, ATAC-seq & ChIP-seq), proteomics (bottom-up, top-down, post-translational modification analysis), lipidomics, and metabolomics. The combination of these datasets can be instrumental in identifying signaling components and regulatory factors involved in ß-cell stress/death. Here, we aggregated these multiple omics datasets into a centralized location, providing a quality-controlled and statistically rigorous resource for investigators seeking to holistically study ß-cell regulation by pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Wastewater Surveillance for Poliovirus in Selected Jurisdictions, United States, 2022–2023

Wastewater testing can inform public health action as a component of polio outbreak response. During 2022-2023, a total of 7 US jurisdictions (5 states and 2 cities) participated in prospective or retrospective testing of wastewater for poliovirus after a paralytic polio case was identified in New York state. Two distinct vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 viruses were detected in wastewater from New York state and New York City during 2022, representing 2 separate importation events. Of those viruses, 1 resulted in persistent community transmission in multiple New York counties and 1 paralytic case. No poliovirus was detected in the other participating jurisdictions (Connecticut, New Jersey, Michigan, and Illinois and Chicago, IL). The value of routine wastewater surveillance for poliovirus apart from an outbreak is unclear. However, these results highlight the ongoing risk for poliovirus importations into the United States and the need to identify undervaccinated communities and increase vaccination coverage to prevent paralytic polio.

Probing T Cell 3D Mechanosensing With Magnetically-Actuated Structures

The ability of cells to recognize and respond to the mechanical properties of their environment is of increasing importance in T cell physiology. However, initial studies in this direction focused on planar hydrogel and elastomer surfaces, presenting several challenges in interpretation including difficulties in separating mechanical stiffness from changes in chemistry needed to modulate this property. We introduce here the use of magnetic fields to change the structural rigidity of microscale elastomer pillars loaded with superparamagnetic nanoparticles, independent of substrate chemistry. This magnetic modulation of rigidity, embodied as the pillar spring constant, changed the interaction of mouse naïve CD4 + T cells from a contractile morphology to one involving deep embedding into the array. Furthermore, increasing spring constant was associated with higher IL-2 secretion, showing a functional impact on mechanosensing. The system introduced here thus separates local substrate stiffness and long-range structural rigidity, revealing new facets of T cell interaction with their environment.

Insights into regulatory T-cell and type-I interferon roles in determining abacavir-induced hypersensitivity or immune tolerance

Introduction Clinical use of several small molecule drugs may lead to severe T-cell-mediated idiosyncratic drug hypersensitivity reactions (iDHR) linked to HLA alleles, including abacavir (ABC) with HLA-B*57:01. Due to study limitations in humans, pathogenic networks in iDHR remain elusive. HLA transgenic murine models have been proposed to bridge knowledge gaps in tolerance and susceptibility to drugs. Methods Mice expressing HLA-B*57:01 and Foxp3-DTR/EGFP were generated to selectively deplete regulatory T-cells (Treg) with diphtheria toxin. ABC was administered for 8 days alone or together with cell- and cytokine-depleting antibodies. Cellular and transcriptomic responses were analyzed by RNA, flow cytometry and fluorescence methods. Results While CD8 + T-cell responses to ABC require HLA presentation, ABC also triggered mitochondrial stress in macrophagesin vitro, independently of HLA.In vivo, Treg were the primary mechanism of drug tolerance controlling HLA presentation and costimulation by antigen presenting cells. Treg ablation uncovered immune adverse events linked to activation and proliferation of both drug-specific and bystander CD8 + T-cells through CD28-mediated pathways with support from CD4 + non-Treg. Type-I interferon (IFN-I) and cellular-stress pathways influenced the fate of lymph node cells responding to ABC, implicating innate immune cells such as macrophages and plasmacytoid dendritic cells in the development of T-cell responses against the drug. IFN-I and IL-2 were necessary for CD8 + T-cell differentiation and ABC-induced adverse reactions. Conclusions This study unveils novel immune mechanisms driven by drug and host-related factors required forin vivoreactions and sheds light on potential biomarker and therapeutic targets for managing and preventing severe and life-threatening iDHR.

Feed status and skin injury modulate immunopathology, global gene expression, and survival in channel catfish during virulent Aeromonas hydrophila infection

Introduction VirulentAeromonas hydrophilais a major pathogen in channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), that causes motileAeromonassepticemia and significant economic losses. We investigated the effect of feeding status and skin integrity on the host immune response, disease survival, and gastrointestinal pathology following a vAh challenge. Methods Using a bath immersion model, channel catfish were divided into four treatment groups: fin clipped and fed (FCF), fin clipped but not fed (FCN), not fin clipped but fed (NCF), and not fin clipped nor fed (NCN) alongside non-challenged control groups The FCF and NCF groups were fed 2 h prior to the challenge, but the FCN and NCN groups were not. Survival analysis, histopathological assessment, and RNA sequencing were conducted across groups at different time intervals throughout the vAh challenge. Results Survival rates were lowest in the FCF and FCN groups (30% and 23% survival, respectively), suggesting that both feeding and skin damage contributed to disease severity. Histopathological analyses revealed more severe intestinal and gastric lesions in fed groups, characterized by epithelial necrosis, hemorrhage, and edema. Transcriptomic analysis among the groups identified significant differentially expressed genes associated with inflammation, apoptosis, and metabolic stress, with notable upregulation of interleukin 1-beta (il-1β), and complement C3 (c3). Gene ontology enrichment highlighted distinct immune activation patterns between fed and unfed groups, with enhanced pathogen recognition and pro-inflammatory responses in unfed fish. Discussion These findings suggest feeding prior to infection may exacerbate disease pathology, potentially by creating a physiological state conducive to facilitate pathogen proliferation and dampened early immune responses, whereas short-term fasting appears to promote early immune activation. This study provides novel insights into the complex interplay between feed status, physical injury, and immune response to vAh infection.
