Abstract
As the main pathogen associated with enzootic pneumonia (EP), Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (Mhp) is globally prevalent and inflicts huge financial losses on the worldwide swine industry each year. However, the pathogenicity of Mhp has not been fully explained to date. Mhp invasion usually leads to long-term chronic infection and persistent lung colonization, suggesting that Mhp has developed effective immune evasion strategies. In this review, we offer more detailed information than was previously available about its immune evasion mechanisms through a systematic summary of the extant findings. Genetic mutation and post-translational protein processing confer Mhp the ability to alter its surface antigens. With the help of adhesins, Mhp can achieve cell invasion. And Mhp can modulate the host immune system through the induction of inflammation, incomplete autophagy, apoptosis, and the suppression of immune cell or immune effector activity. Furthermore, we offer the latest views on how we may treat Mhp infections and develop novel vaccines.

Vet Res 2022; 53:62.

Abstract
Autophagy is an important conserved homeostatic process related to nutrient and energy deficiency and organelle damage in diverse eukaryotic cells and has been reported to play an important role in cellular responses to pathogens and bacterial replication. The respiratory bacterium Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae has been identified to enter porcine alveolar macrophages, which are considered important immune cells. However, little is known about the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of M. hyopneumoniae infection of porcine alveolar macrophages. Our experiments demonstrated that M. hyopneumoniae infection enhanced the formation of autophagosomes in porcine alveolar macrophages but prevented the fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes, thereby blocking autophagic flux and preventing the acidification and destruction of M. hyopneumoniae in low-pH surroundings. In addition, using different autophagy regulators to intervene in the autophagy process, we found that incomplete autophagy promoted the intracellular proliferation of M. hyopneumoniae. We also found that blocking the phosphorylation of JNK and Akt downregulated the autophagy induced by M. hyopneumoniae, but pathways related to two mitogen-activated protein kinases (Erk1/2 and p38) did not affect the process. Collectively, M. hyopneumoniae induced incomplete autophagy in porcine alveolar macrophages through the JNK and Akt signalling pathways; conversely, incomplete autophagy prevented M. hyopneumoniae from entering and degrading lysosomes to realize the proliferation of M. hyopneumoniae in porcine alveolar macrophages. These findings raise the possibility that targeting the autophagic pathway may be effective for the prevention or treatment of M. hyopneumoniae infection.

Front Microbiol 2022; 13:935547. [PMID: 35958147 PMCID: PMC9360976 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.935547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Although autophagy can eliminate some intracellular pathogens, others, e.g., Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella, Mycoplasma bovis, can evade it. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, a key regulator of autophagy, is involved in initiation and promotion of a range of pathological diseases. As the effects of M. bovis on the autophagic pathway are not well documented, our objective was to elucidate the effects of M. bovis infection on the PI3K-Akt-mTOR cellular autophagic pathway in bovine mammary epithelial cells (bMECs). Ultrastructure of bMECs infected with M. bovis was assessed with transmission electron microscopy, co-localization of LC3 puncta with M. bovis was confirmed by laser confocal microscopy, and autophagy-related indicators were quantified with Western blotting and RT-PCR. In M. bovis-infected bMECs, intracellular M. bovis was encapsulated by membrane-like structures, the expression level of LC3-II and Beclin1 protein decreased at the middle stage of infection, degradation of SQSTM1/P62 was blocked, autophagy of bMECs was inhibited, and PI3K-Akt-mTOR protein was activated by phosphorylation. Furthermore, the tumor suppressor PTEN can inhibit the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway through dephosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and may be important for cellular resistance to infection. In the present study, the number of intracellular M. bovis was inversely related to the change in the level of autophagy markers (e.g., LC3-II, SQSTM1/P62) within host cells induced by the low knockdown of Akt or PTEN. We concluded that M. bovis-infected bMECs alleviated cellular autophagy through a PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway, and that PTEN acted as a protective gene regulating autophagy, a key step in controlling infection.

[PMID: 35883566 PMCID: PMC9313059 DOI: 10.3390/biom12071010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2022] [Revised: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Pyroptosis is a process of programmed cell death mediated by gasdermin (GSDM) found in recent years. In the process of pyroptosis, caspase-1 or caspase-11/4/5 is activated, which cleaves gasdermin D and separates its N-terminal pore-forming domain (PFD). The oligomers of PFD bind to the cell membrane and form macropores on the membrane, resulting in cell swelling and membrane rupture. Increasing evidence indicates that pyroptosis is involved in many diseases, including ischemia reperfusion injury. Autophagy is a highly conserved catabolic process in eukaryotic cells. It plays an important role in the survival and maintenance of cells by degrading organelles, proteins, and macromolecules in the cytoplasm and recycling degradation products. Increasing evidence shows that dysfunctional autophagy participates in many diseases. Recently, autophagy and pyroptosis have been reported to play a vital role in the process of ischemia/reperfusion injury, but the related mechanisms are not completely clear. Therefore, this article reviews the role of autophagy and pyroptosis in ischemia–reperfusion injury and analyzes the related mechanisms to provide a basis for future research.
