Mollah MMI. Ligands of HMG-like dorsal switch protein 1 of Spodoptera exigua leads to mortality in diamondback moth, Plutellaxylostella. Heliyon 2024; 10:e27090. [PMID: 38509914 PMCID: PMC10950498 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e27090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
HMG-like dorsal switch protein 1 (DSP1) is the insect homolog of the high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein of the vertebrates. Previous studies confirmed DSP1 in Spodoptera exigua, Tenebrio molitor, and Aedes albopictus, and were analyzed for their immune roles, survivability, and binding affinity with entomopathogenic bacterial metabolites. The present study aimed to predict, and confirm DSP1 in diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella along with the effect of Spodoptera exigua DSP1 ligands in the survivability of this insect. DSP1 of Plutella xylostella (Px-DSP1) consists of 465 amino acids (AA). Phylogeny analysis showed that Px-DSP1 clustered with other Lepidopteran insects where each insect order clustered separately. Domain analysis showed that like other insects, Px-DSP1 contains two HMG boxes (Box A and Box B), one coiled-coil (CC), five Q-rich low complexity (LC), and an acidic tail (AT). Px-DSP1 was expressed in each developmental stage and tissue. The highest expression was in L4 larvae and fat body tissues. Thermal shift assay (TSA) showed the binding affinity of 3-Ethoxy-4-Methoxyphenol (EMP), Phthalimide (PM), and o-Cyanobenzoic acid (CBA) to rDSP1 of Spodoptera exigua. Mortality bioassay showed that all these metabolites were toxic against P. xylostella larvae. Among these, EMP was more toxic providing more than 65% mortality at 500 ppm concentration. However, PM and CBA also showed more than 60 and 50% mortality, respectively at 500 ppm concentration. We assume that like Se-DSP1, these compounds also bind with Px-DSP1 which leads to the inhibition of DSP1-mediated immunity and impose the mortality of Plutella xylostella larvae.

Mollah MMI. Spätzle processing enzyme is required to activate dorsal switch protein 1 induced Toll immune signalling pathway in Tenebrio molitor. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0291976. [PMID: 37733725 PMCID: PMC10513244 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0291976] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/10/2023] [Indexed: 09/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Dorsal switch protein 1 (DSP1) acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) molecule to activate immune responses in Tenebrio molitor. From a previous study in Spodoptera exigua, we found that DSP1 activates Toll immune signalling pathway to induce immune responses by melanisation, PLA2 activity and AMP synthesis. However, the target site of DSP1 in this pathway remains unknown. The objective of this study was to determine the role of spätzle processing enzyme in the DSP1 induced toll immune signalling pathway. To address this, we analyzed spätzle processing enzyme (Tm-SPE) of the three-step serine protease cascade of T. molitor Toll pathway. Tm-SPE expressed in all developmental stages and larval tissues. Upon immune challenge, its expression levels were upregulated but significantly reduced after RNA interference (RNAi). In addition, the induction of immune responses upon immune challenge or recombinant DSP1 injection was significantly increased. Loss of function using RNA interference revealed that the Tm-SPE is involved in connecting DSP1 induced immune responses like hemocyte nodule formation, phenoloxidase (PO) activity, phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity and antimicrobial peptide (AMP) synthesis. These suggest that Tm-SPE controls the DSP1 induced activation of Toll immune signalling pathway required for both cellular and humoral immune responses. However, to confirm the target molecule of DSP1 in three-step proteolytic cascade, we have to check other upstream serine proteases like Spatzle activating enzyme (SAE) or modular serine protease (MSP).

DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 144:104706.

Abstract
Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) causes a serious plant disease and is transmitted by specific thrips including the western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis. The persistent and circulative virus transmission suggests an induction of immune defenses in the thrips. We investigated the immune responses of F. occidentalis to TSWV infection. Immunofluorescence assay demonstrated viral infection in the larval midguts at early stage and subsequent propagation to the salivary gland in adults. In the larval midgut, TSWV infection led to the release of DSP1, a damage-associated molecular pattern, from the gut epithelium into the hemolymph. DSP1 up-regulated PLA2 activity, which would lead to biosynthesis of eicosanoids that activate cellular and humoral immune responses. Phenoloxidase (PO) activity was enhanced following induction of PO and its activating protease gene expressions. Antimicrobial peptide genes and dual oxidase, which produces reactive oxygen species, were induced by the viral infection. Expression of four caspase genes increased and TUNEL assay confirmed apoptosis in the larval midgut after the virus infection. These immune responses to viral infection were significantly suppressed by the inhibition of DSP1 release. We infer that TSWV infection induces F. occidentalis immune responses, which are activated by the release of DSP1 from the infection foci within midguts.

DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 139:104559.

Abstract
Insect immunity defends the infection of an insect pathogenic bacterium, Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). However, it was not clear on the recognition of Bt infection by the insect immune system. This study tested a physiological function of dorsal switch protein 1 (DSP1) in the Bt infection. DSP1 is classified into HMGB1-like damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) in insects. Upon Bt infection in a lepidopteran Spodoptera exigua, DSP1 was released from the nuclei of the midgut epithelium and activated immune responses. For this DSP1 release, a functional binding between Bt and its receptors on the midgut epithelium was required because any RNA interference (RNAi) treatments of Bt receptor (cadherin or ABCC) prevented the DSP1 release and became susceptible to the bacterial infection. The DSP1 release was required for the gene induction of Repat33, which is a member of response to pathogen gene family and its gene product mediated cellular and humoral immune responses against pathogen infection in S. exigua. The released DSP1 activated phospholipase A2 (PLA2) to produce eicosanoids, which induced the Repat33 expression because a hemocoelic injection of a recombinant DSP1 induced the Repat33 expression without Bt infection. However, any inhibition of PLA2 activity impaired the DAMP signaling between DSP1 and Repat33. DSP1 also up-regulated two other immune mediators, nitric oxide (NO) and a cytokine called plasmatocyte-spreading peptide (PSP). Either NO or PSP activated PLA2 to up-regulate Repat33 expression. These results suggest that Bt infection of the insect midgut generates a DAMP signal via DSP1 release, which turns on NO or the cytokine-PLA2-Repat33 immune signaling pathway.

Abstract
Various microbiota including beneficial symbionts reside in the insect gut. Infections of pathogens cause dysregulation of the microflora and threaten insect survival. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been used in the gut immune responses, in which its production is tightly regulated by controlling dual oxidase (Duox) activity via Ca2+ signal to protect beneficial microflora and gut epithelium due to its high cytotoxicity. However, it was not clear how the insects discriminate the pathogens from the various microbes in the gut lumen to trigger ROS production. An entomopathogenic nematode (Steinernema feltiae) infection elevated ROS level in the gut lumen of a lepidopteran insect, Spodoptera exigua. Dorsal switch protein 1 (DSP1) localized in the nucleus in the midgut epithelium was released into plasma upon the nematode infection and activated phospholipase A2 (PLA2). The activated PLA2 led to an increase of PGE2 level in the midgut epithelium, in which rising Ca2+ signal up-regulated ROS production. Inhibiting DSP1 release by its specific RNA interference (RNAi) or specific inhibitor, 3-ethoxy-4-methoxyphenol, treatment failed to increase the intracellular Ca2+ level and subsequently prevented ROS production upon the nematode infection. A specific PLA2 inhibitor treatment also prevented the up-regulation of Ca2+ and subsequent ROS production upon the nematode infection. However, the addition of PGE2 to the inhibitor treatment rescued the gut immunity. DSP1 release was not observed at infection with non-pathogenic pathogens but detected in plasma with pathogenic infections that would lead to damage to the gut epithelium. These results indicate that DSP1 acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern in gut immunity through DSP1/PLA2/Ca2+/Duox.

Abstract
In recent years, the scientific community's interest in T. molitor as an insect model to investigate immunity and host-pathogen interactions has considerably increased. The reasons for this growing interest could be explained by the peculiar features of this beetle, which offers various advantages compared to other invertebrates models commonly used in laboratory studies. Thus, this review aimed at providing a broad view of the T. molitor immune system in light of the new scientific evidence on the developmental/tissue-specific gene expression studies related to microbial infection. In addition to the well-known cellular component and humoral response process, several studies investigating the factors associated with T. molitor immune response or deepening of those already known have been reported. However, various aspects remain still less understood, namely the possible crosstalk between the immune deficiency protein and Toll pathways and the role exerted by T. molitor apolipoprotein III in the expression of the antimicrobial peptides. Therefore, further research is required for T. molitor to be recommended as an alternative insect model for pathogen-host interaction and immunity studies.

Abstract
Several mosquitoes transmit human pathogens by blood feeding, with the gut being the main entrance for the pathogens. Thus, the gut epithelium defends the pathogens by eliciting potent immune responses. However, it was unclear how the mosquito gut discriminates pathogens among various microflora in the lumen. This study proposed a hypothesis that a damage signal might be specifically induced by pathogens in the gut. The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, encodes dorsal switch protein 1 (Aa-DSP1) as a putative damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP). Aa-DSP1 was localized in the nucleus of the midgut epithelium in naïve larvae. Upon infection by a pathogenic bacterium, Serratia marcescens, Aa-DSP1 was released to hemocoel and activated phospholipase A2 (PLA2). The activated PLA2 increased the level of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the gut and subsequently increased Ca2+ signal to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) via dual oxidase (Duox). Inhibition of Aa-DSP1 via RNA interference or specific inhibitor treatment failed to increase PGE2/Ca2+ signal upon the bacterial infection. Thus, the inhibitors specifically targeting eicosanoid biosynthesis significantly prevented the upregulation of ROS production in the gut and enhanced mosquito mortality after the bacterial infection. However, such inhibitory effects were rescued by adding PGE2. These suggest that Aa-DSP1 plays an important role in immune response of the mosquito gut as a DAMP during pathogen infection by triggering a signaling pathway, DSP1/PLA2/Ca2+/Duox.

Abstract
Western flower thrips, Frankliella occidentalis, is a serious pest by directly infesting host crops. It can also give indirect damage to host crops by transmitting a plant virus called tomato spotted wilt virus. A fungal pathogen, Beauveria bassiana, can infect thrips. It has been used as a biopesticide. However, little is known on the defense of thrips against this fungal pathogen. This study assessed the defense of thrips against the fungal infection with respect to immunity by analyzing immune-associated genes of F. occidentalis in both larvae and adults. Immunity-associated genes of western flower thrips were selected from three immunity steps: nonself recognition, mediation, and immune responses. For the pathogen recognition step, dorsal switch protein 1 (DSP1) was chosen. For the immune mediation step, phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and prostaglandin E2 synthase were also selected. For the step of immune responses, two phenoloxidases (PO) genes and four proPO-activating peptidase genes involved in melanization against pathogens were chosen. Dual oxidase gene involved in the production of reactive oxygen species and four antimicrobial peptide genes for executing humoral immune responses were selected. All immunity-associated genes were inducible to the fungal infection. Their expression levels were induced higher in adults than in larvae by the fungal infections. However, inhibitor treatments specific to DSP1 or PLA2 significantly suppressed the inducible expression of these immune-associated genes, leading to significant enhancement of fungal pathogenicity. These results suggest that immunity is essential for thrips to defend against B. bassiana, in which DSP1 and eicosanoids play a crucial role in eliciting immune responses.

Abstract
Spreading behavior of hemocytes (= insect blood cells) is essential for cellular immune responses against various microbial pathogens. It is activated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) via its membrane receptor associated with secondary messenger, cAMP, in insects. This study observed an increase of calcium ion (Ca2+) level after an acute increase of cAMP induced by PGE2 treatment and clarified the intracellular signals underlying the hemocyte-spreading behavior. Inhibition of Ca2+ flux significantly impaired the hemocyte-spreading and subsequent cellular immune response, phagocytosis. The up-regulation of intracellular Ca2+ in response to PGE2 was dependent on cAMP because RNA interference (RNAi) of PGE2 receptor expression or inhibiting adenylate cyclase prevented Ca2+ mobilization. The up-regulation of Ca2+ was induced by inositol triphosphate (IP3) via its specific IP3 receptor. Furthermore, inhibition of ryanodine receptor impaired Ca2+ mobilization, suggesting Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release. However, the effective spreading behavior of hemocytes was dependent on both secondary messengers. Ca2+ signal stimulated by cAMP was required for activating small G proteins because RNAi treatments of small G proteins such as Rac1, RhoA, and Cdc42 failed to stimulate hemocyte-spreading. In contrast, aquaporin was activated by cAMP. Its activity was necessary for changing cell volume during hemocyte-spreading. These results indicate that PGE2 mediates hemocyte-spreading via cAMP signal to activate aquaporin and via Ca2+ signal to activate actin cytoskeletal rearrangement.

Abstract
Salicylic acid is a plant hormone that can mediate various plant physiological processes. Salicylic acid can bind to human high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and interrupt its role in mediating immune responses. Dorsal switch protein 1 (DSP1) is an insect homolog of HMGB1. In this study, a DSP1 (Se-DSP1) encoded in Spodoptera exigua, a phytophagous insect, was characterized, and its potential role in immune response was explored. Upon bacterial challenge, Se-DSP1 was localized in the nucleus and released into the hemolymph. The released Se-DSP1 could mediate both cellular and humoral immune responses by activating eicosanoid biosynthesis. Salicylic acid could bind to Se-DSP1 with a high affinity. The immune responses of S. exigua were significantly interrupted by SA feeding. Larvae reared on tomatoes with high endogenous SA levels became more susceptible to entomopathogens. Taken together, these results suggest a tritrophic defensive role of plant SA against phytophagous insects.
