Quantitative analysis of the lysine acetylome reveals the role of SIRT3-mediated HSP60 deacetylation in suppressing intracellular Mycobacterium tuberculosis survival. Microbiol Spectr 2024:e0074924. [PMID: 38916288 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00749-24] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Protein acetylation and deacetylation are key epigenetic modifications that regulate the initiation and development of several diseases. In the context of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), these processes are essential for host-pathogen interactions and immune responses. However, the specific effects of acetylation and deacetylation on cellular functions during M. tb infection are not fully understood. This study employed Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) labeling for quantitative proteomic profiling to examine the acetylproteome (acetylome) profiles of noninfected and M. tb-infected macrophages. We identified 715 acetylated peptides from 1,072 proteins and quantified 544 lysine acetylation sites (Kac) in 402 proteins in noninfected and M. tb-infected macrophages. Our research revealed a link between acetylation events and metabolic changes during M. tb infection. Notably, the deacetylation of heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), a key chaperone protein, was significantly associated with this process. Specifically, the deacetylation of HSP60 at K96 by sirtuin3 (SIRT3) enhances macrophage apoptosis, leading to the elimination of intracellular M. tb. These findings underscore the pivotal role of the SIRT3-HSP60 axis in the host immune response to M. tb. This study offers a new perspective on host protein acetylation and suggests that targeting host-directed therapies could be a promising approach for tuberculosis immunotherapy. IMPORTANCE Protein acetylation is crucial for the onset, development, and outcome of tuberculosis (TB). Our study comprehensively investigated the dynamics of lysine acetylation during M. tb infection, shedding light on the intricate host-pathogen interactions that underlie the pathogenesis of tuberculosis. Using an advanced quantitative lysine proteomics approach, different profiles of acetylation sites and proteins in macrophages infected with M. tb were identified. Functional enrichment and protein-protein network analyses revealed significant associations between acetylated proteins and key cellular pathways, highlighting their critical role in the host response to M. tb infection. Furthermore, the deacetylation of HSP60 and its influence on macrophage-mediated clearance of M. tb underscore the functional significance of acetylation in tuberculosis pathogenesis. In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the regulatory mechanisms governing host immune responses to M. tb infection and offers promising avenues for developing novel therapeutic interventions against TB.

Abstract
While the vertebrate immune system consists of innate and adaptive branches, invertebrates only have innate immunity. This feature makes them an ideal model system for studying the cellular and molecular mechanisms of innate immunity sensu stricto without reciprocal interferences from adaptive immunity. Although invertebrate immunity is evolutionarily older and a precursor of vertebrate immunity, it is far from simple. Despite lacking lymphocytes and functional immunoglobulin, the invertebrate immune system has many sophisticated mechanisms and features, such as long-term immune memory, which, for decades, have been exclusively attributed to adaptive immunity. In this review, we describe the cellular and molecular aspects of invertebrate immunity, including the epigenetic foundation of innate memory, the transgenerational inheritance of immunity, genetic immunity against invading transposons, the mechanisms of self-recognition, natural transplantation, and germ/somatic cell parasitism.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a widespread infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), which has been a significant burden for a long time. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are essential for protein function in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. This review focuses on the contribution of protein acetylation to the function of M. tb and its infected macrophages. The acetylation of M. tb proteins plays a critical role in virulence, drug resistance, regulation of metabolism, and host anti-TB immune response. Similarly, the PTMs of host proteins induced by M. tb are crucial for the development, treatment, and prevention of diseases. Host protein acetylation induced by M. tb is significant in regulating host immunity against TB, which substantially affects the disease's development. The review summarizes the functions and mechanisms of M. tb acetyltransferase in virulence and drug resistance. It also discusses the role and mechanism of M. tb in regulating host protein acetylation and immune response regulation. Furthermore, the current scenario of isoniazid usage in M. tb therapy treatment is examined. Overall, this review provides valuable information that can serve as a preliminary basis for studying pathogenic research, developing new drugs, exploring in-depth drug resistance mechanisms, and providing precise treatment for TB.

Transcriptional profiles predict treatment outcome in patients with tuberculosis and diabetes at diagnosis and at two weeks after initiation of anti-tuberculosis treatment. EBioMedicine 2022; 82:104173. [PMID: 35841871 PMCID: PMC9297076 DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2022.104173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Revised: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 07/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Globally, the tuberculosis (TB) treatment success rate is approximately 85%, with treatment failure, relapse and death occurring in a significant proportion of pulmonary TB patients. Treatment success is lower among people with diabetes mellitus (DM). Predicting treatment outcome early after diagnosis, especially in TB-DM patients, would allow early treatment adaptation for individuals and may improve global TB control. METHODS Samples were collected in a longitudinal cohort study of adult TB patients from South Africa (n = 94) and Indonesia (n = 81), who had concomitant DM (n = 59), intermediate hyperglycaemia (n = 79) or normal glycaemia/no DM (n = 37). Treatment outcome was monitored, and patients were categorized as having a good (cured) or poor (failed, recurrence, died) outcome during treatment and 12 months follow-up. Whole blood transcriptional profiles before, during and at the end of TB treatment were characterized using unbiased RNA-Seq and targeted gene dcRT-MLPA. FINDINGS We report differences in whole blood transcriptome profiles, which were observed before initiation of treatment and throughout treatment, between patients with a good versus poor TB treatment outcome. An eight-gene and a 22-gene blood transcriptional signature distinguished patients with a good TB treatment outcome from patients with a poor TB treatment outcome at diagnosis (AUC = 0·815) or two weeks (AUC = 0·834) after initiation of TB treatment, respectively. High accuracy was obtained by cross-validating this signature in an external cohort (AUC = 0·749). INTERPRETATION These findings suggest that transcriptional profiles can be used as a prognostic biomarker for treatment failure and success, even in patients with concomitant DM. FUNDING The research leading to these results, as part of the TANDEM Consortium, received funding from the European Community's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013 Grant Agreement No. 305279) and the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO-TOP Grant Agreement No. 91214038). The research leading to the results presented in the Indian validation cohort was supported by Research Council of Norway Global Health and Vaccination Research (GLOBVAC) projects: RCN 179342, 192534, and 248042, the University of Bergen (Norway).
