| CiaD is required for maximal C. jejuni invasion and IL 8 secretion from human INT 407 epithelial cells. We also show that CiaD is required for ABT888 the development of acute disease in vivo. Specifically, the C. jejuni wild type strain resulted in disease characterized by a thickening of the gastrointestinal tract wall, enlarged ileocecocolic lymph nodes, and bloody lumen contents in cecum and colon, which was absent in mice infected with the C. jejuni ciaD mutant. These data are significant, as this is the first time that a C. jejuni effector protein has been shown to contribute to the development of disease in a mouse model. Results The flagellum is required for CiaD delivery to host epithelial cells Previous work in our lab led to the identification of 42 proteins that contain a putative C.<br><br> jejuni flagellar T3SS export signal, We sought to determine AEB071 価格 if one of these proteins, Cj0788, designated Campylobacter invasion antigen D, is secreted by C. jejuni. We tested if CiaD is secreted from a C. jejuni wild type strain and ciaD mutant harboring a plasmid encoding CiaD fused to the adenylate cyclase domain of the CyaA protein from Bordetella pertussis. The CiaD ACD fusion protein was secreted from the C. jejuni wild type strain and a ciaD mutant but not the flgBC flagellar mutant, as judged by immunoblot analysis using an ACD specific antibody, To determine if CiaD is required for Cia secretion, we tested if a second Cia protein could be exported from the ciaD mutant transformed with a construct harboring CiaC ACD. In addition, the ciaD mutant was transformed with a construct harboring MetK ACD, as a negative control.<br><br> In contrast to MetK, the CiaC effector protein was secreted from the ciaD mutant, These assays AG-014699 ic50 show that CiaD is secreted from a C. jejuni wild type strain and is not required for the secretion of other Cia proteins. To determine if CiaD is delivered to the cytosol of human epithelial cells, INT 407 human intestinal cells were infected with C. jejuni transformed with the CiaD ACD construct and host cell cAMP levels were measured via ELISA as described previously, The C. jejuni wild type strain transformed with the CiaC ACD and MetK ACD constructs were included as positive and negative controls, respectively. All of the fusion proteins were synthesized in the transformed C.<br><br> jejuni isolates, However, in comparison to the negative control, a significant increase in the level of cAMP was observed in cells inoculated with the C. jejuni CiaD ACD strain, The delivery of CiaD was found to be dependent on a functional flagellum, as infection of INT 407 cells with a C. jejuni flgBC mu tant transformed with the CiaD ACD construct resulted in a significant decrease in cAMP detected as compared to the C. jejuni wild type strain, We utilized the Cia delivery assay to determine if the ciaD mutant could deliver CiaC to a host cell. Again, in contrast to MetK, the CiaC effector protein was delivered from the ciaD mutant to host cells, as judged by a significant increase in cAMP versus the controls. CiaD induces the secretion of IL 8 from epithelial cells An effector protein is defined as a protein delivered from a pathogen to a host cell that ultimately functions to alter host cell behavior. | |
