Description
Microarrays were used to examine gene expression changes that may be present in the fallopian tube epithelium of morphologically normal BRCA1 mutation positive and negative subjects. Fallopian tube epithelia has been implicated as an early point of origin for serous carcninoma. By examining the early events present in the microenvironment of this tissue between BRCA1 mutation carriers and non-carriers, we hoped to elucidate mechanisms that may lead to the development of epithelial ovarian cancer.

Description
Resistance to amebiasis is associated with a polymorphism in the leptin receptor. Previous studies demonstrated that humans with the ancestral Q223 leptin receptor allele were nearly four times less likely to be infected with Entamoeba histolytica than those carrying the mutant R223 allele. We hypothesized that the Q223 allele protected against E. histolytica via STAT3-mediated transcription of genes required for mucosal immunity. To test this, mice containing the humanized LEPR Q or R allele at codon 223 were intracecally infected with E. histolytica. Susceptibility to amebiasis was assessed, and cecal tissues analyzed for changes in gene expression. By 72 h post-challenge all Q223 mice had cleared E. histolytica, whereas 39% of 223R mice were infected. 37 genes were differentially expressed in response to infection at 72 h, including pro-inflammatory genes (CXCL2, calprotectin (S100A8/9), Pla2g7, Itbg2, and MMP9) and functions pertaining to the movement and activity of immune cells. A comparison at 12 h post-challenge of infected Q223 vs. R223 mice identified a subset of differentially-expressed genes, many of which were closely linked to leptin signaling. Further analyses indicated that the Q223 gene expression pattern was consistent with a suppressed apoptotic response to infection, while 223R showed increased cellular proliferation and recruitment. These studies are the first to illuminate the downstream effects of leptin receptor polymorphisms on intestinal infection by E. histolytica. As such, they are important for the insight that they provide to this previously uncharacterized mechanism of mucosal immunity.

Description
A delay in the mammalian inflammatory response is a prominent feature of infection with Yersinia pestis, the agent of bubonic and pneumonic plague. Y. pestis factors have been identified that either do not stimulate a normal inflammatory response, or actively suppress it. Prominent among these are components of the Type III secretion system that is encoded on the Yersinia virulence plasmid (pYV). We used a rat model of bubonic plague to characterize the kinetics and extent of the mammalian transcriptomic response to infection with wild-type or pYV-negative Y. pestis in the draining lymph node. Remarkably, dissemination and multiplication of wild-type Y. pestis during the bubonic stage of disease did not induce any detectable gene expression response by host lymph node cells. This was followed, however, by an extensive transcriptomic response, including upregulation of several cytokine, chemokine, and other immune response genes, after systemic spread during septicemic plague. Matched lymph node samples used for histopathology and extracellular cytokine measurements, combined with the microarray data set, broadly outlined the mammalian immune response to Y. pestis and how it is influenced by pYV-encoded factors. The results indicate that both WT and pYV Y. pestis induce primarily a Th17 response, and not a Th1 or Th2 response. In the absence of pYV, a sustained recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, the major Th17 effector cell, to the lymph node resulted in clearance of infection. Thus, the ability to counteract a Th17- driven PMN response in the lymph node appears to be a major function of the Y. pestis virulence plasmid. In contrast, classic markers of the proinflammatory response and macrophage activation, such as TNF- and IFN-, were not induced at all by pYV Y. pestis, and appeared only late in infection with WT Y. pestis.

Description
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is now routinely treated with interferon (IFN)-free regimens composed of directly acting antiviral (DAA) agents. Changes in hepatic and peripheral innate and adaptive immune function during DAA therapy associate with achieving a sustained virologic response (SVR). The present study explored the impact of cirrhosis on host endogenous interferon pathways during DAA therapy. mRNA and micro-RNA (miRNA) expression profiling was performed on paired pre- and end-of-treatment (EOT) liver biopsies from subjects treated with a 2 DAA regimen (sofosbuvir/ledipasvir [SOF/LDV]) for 12 weeks (n=4, 3 with cirrhosis) or a 3 DAA regimen (SOF/LDV with GS-9669 or GS-9451) for 6 weeks (n=6, 0 with cirrhosis). Nine of ten subjects achieved SVR, with one relapse in the GS-9669 treatment arm (ISHAK fibrosis 4). Hepatic interferon-stimulated gene expression was down-regulated in the liver of all subjects, with no observable impact of cirrhosis or duration of treatment. Hepatic down-regulation of all type-III IFNs was observed (IFNL1, IFNL2, IFNL3, IFNL4-G), while IFNA2 expression, undetectable in all subjects pre-treatment, was detected in 3 of 9 subjects at EOT (all 3 achieved SVR). Only the subject who relapsed had detectable IFNL4-G expression in EOT liver. No change in IFNB1, IFNG, or IFNA5 expression was observed, and expression of other type-I IFNs (IFNA1, IFNA4, IFNA5, IFNA6, IFNA8, IFNA16, IFNA17) was not detected pre- or post-treatment. While expression of multiple miRNAs changed in liver tissue over the course of treatment, most miRNAs previously associated with HCV replication, innate interferon signaling, and hepatic fibrosis did not change significantly. Conclusions: Changes in the host IFN-response during DAA therapy associate with favorable treatment outcome regardless of composition and duration of therapy or extent of hepatic fibrosis.

Description
Chlamydia trachomatis serovariants are responsible for either Trachoma, the leading cause of infectious blindness or sexually transmitted disease, wherein the endocervix is the most frequently infected site in women. Disease caused by Chlamydia typically involves chronic inflammation and scarring. Recent work with a live-attenuated A2497 plasmid deficient vaccine strain (A2497-) demonstrated protection in nonhuman primates against trachoma and a lack of measurable ocular pathology in A2497- infected monkeys. We therefore performed host cell transcriptome analysis of Hela cells infected with A2497 plasmid-containing (A2497) and A2497- Chlamydia over time. Our results indicate that relative to wild type A2497, the A2497- variant illicits a transcriptome response indicative of lowered inflammation response a delayed apoptosis response, a reduction in immune cell recruitement cytokine expression and a reduction in genes involved in cell proliferation and or fibrosis-like activities. The data provided here suggests a model that may explain how plasmid deficient chlamydia may provide an immuno-protective response without the pathology normally seen with plasmid-containing bacteria.
