Abstract

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a causative agent of community-acquired pneumonia. Upon pneumococcal infection, innate immune cells recognize pneumococcal lipoproteins via Toll-like receptor 2 and induce inflammation. Here, we generated a strain of S. pneumoniae deficient in lipoprotein signal peptidase (LspA), a transmembrane type II signal peptidase required for lipoprotein maturation, to investigate the host immune response against this strain. Triton X-114 phase separation revealed that lipoprotein expression was lower in the LspA-deficient strain than in the wild-type strain. Additionally, the LspA-deficient strain decreased nuclear factor-κB activation and cytokine production in THP-1 cells, indicating impaired innate immune response against the strain.

脂蛋白信号肽酶缺陷的肺炎链球菌表现出受损的 Toll 样受体 2 刺激活性。
肺炎链球菌是社区获得性肺炎的致病菌。感染肺炎球菌后,先天性免疫细胞会通过 Toll 样受体 2 识别肺炎球菌脂蛋白并诱发炎症。在这里,我们生成了一株缺乏脂蛋白信号肽酶(LspA)的肺炎球菌,以研究宿主对该菌株的免疫反应。Triton X-114 相分离显示,LspA 缺陷菌株的脂蛋白表达量低于野生型菌株。此外,LspA缺陷株降低了THP-1细胞中核因子-κB的活化和细胞因子的产生,表明针对该菌株的先天免疫反应受损。
