A21 ROLE OF SIALIC ACID O-ACETYLATION IN MAINTAINING MUCUS INTEGRITY AND HOMEOSTASIS OF THE COLONIC MUCOSA
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract Background The mucus network provides innate immune defense to protect our gastrointestinal tract from pathogens, and promote homeostasis with our resident microbiota. This network is constituted by the mucin MUC2 (Muc2 in mouse), which is ~80% complex O-linked glycans by weight. Sialic acid (Sia) is a key capping monosaccharide on complex O-glycans which has recently been linked to preserving mucus integrity. Sia can undergo enzymatic modifications including the addition of O-acetyl groups. The 9-O-acetyltransferase CasD1 is responsible for the 9-OAc Sia variants. Functionally, the OAc-modification is known to inhibit microbial sialidase activities which may preserve Sia’s protective roles on mucins. However, the extent of these OAc modifications in human and murine Mucin-2, and how they influence mucus function is unclear. Purpose: To determine whether and how Sia O-acetylation on colonic mucus regulates mucus integrity, host-microbe interactions, and colitis susceptibility. Method We used viral-derived probes that target specific OAc-Sia analogues on mucus on sections from human feces and mouse feces and colon tissues to visualize their spatial arrangement and microbial interaction in situ. For glycomics, OAc-Sia analogues were quantitated on purified human MUC2 and mouse Muc2 by HPLC-MS after derivatization with 4,5-dimethyl-1,2-diaminobenzamine (DMBA). O-glycans were released via non-reductive ammonia-catalyzed β-elimination and analyzed by mass spectrometry. For in vivo work, we generated intestinal epithelial cell-specific Casd1 KO mice (Casd1flox/flox;VillinCre or IEC Casd1-/- mice) and analyzed their mucins. Sialidase activities were quantified in the supernatants of colon fecal materials from WT and IEC Casd1-/- mutants mice using a fluorogenic substrate 4-MU-NeuNAc. Colitis susceptibility was monitored using 1.5% w/v Dextran Sodium Sulfate (DSS). Result(s) We found Sias on both human MUC2 and murine Muc2 were heavily O-acetylated, with ~75% and ~45% of Sias having 9-OAc-based modification in humans and mice respectively, and were distributed throughout the niche and barrier layers of mucus in situ. IEC Casd1-/- mice were viable and healthy with knockdown confirmed by 9-OAc staining, western blot of protein lysates and mucins, and sialylomics. The mucus encapsulation appeared overall intact regardless of OAc status. However, IEC Casd1-/- mice showed heightened susceptibility to 1.5% DSS colitis, linked to thinning of the mucus in IEC Casd1-/- vs WT littermates after challenge. Consistent with the role of OAc Sia in sialidase inhibition, loss of OAc Sia was associated with increased sialidase activities as assessed by heightened 4 MU signal in fecal supernatants in WT vs littermate IEC Casd1-/- mice. O-glycomics also showed reduction in the number of sialylated O-glycan structures upon loss of 9-OAc Sia. Conclusion(s) Sia O-acetylation appears important in maintaining key aspects of Sia-dependent mucus function and protecting from inflammatory insult.

Prédiction machine sur la base complète
Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
