Molekulare Charakterisierung eines neuen phagolysosomalen Rezeptors für RNA von Streptokokken
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
The central aim of our grant proposal was the identification of a phagolysosomal GBS-ssRNA-Receptor. This aim has been achieved in mouse cells by the identification of TLR13 as the cognate receptor for GBS ssRNA. A respective manuscript has been submitted to the Journal of Immunology (currently in revision). We furthermore contributed to the identification of TLR8 as a relatively promiscuous receptor for bacterial ssRNA in human monocytes. Furthermore, we were substantially involved in the identification of NLRP3 as part of a cytosolic receptor complex for GBS ssRNA. A second aim was the resolution of the dynamic composition of the phagosomal GBS receptor complex. With respect to dissection of the MyD88 dependent adapter, we have found that spatial association of TLR13 with MyD88 is critical for activation of the kinase IRAK1 and cytokine activation by GBS, and that these effects depend on the integrity of the death domain of MyD88. Moreover, we have identified TRIF is a novel and unique adapter with respect to its compensatory properties for loss of MyD88 in mediating GBS-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS). Finally, we aimed at better defining the role of iNOS / nitric oxide (NO) in TLR induced macrophage (Mφ) activation. We found NO to occur as early as 30 minutes after the first contact between GBS and Mφs, thereby altering the activation program. Moreover we found that NO is critically involved in TLR2-induced programming of Mφs.
