Monocytes play a role in protection against pathogens by migrating to inflamed tissues and differentiating into macrophages but their specific role in the context of S. aureus pulmonary infection has not been fully elucidated. Using a CCR2-DTR transgenic mouse model we demonstrate that over the course of infection monocyte depletion resulted in worse airway clearance of S. aureus. The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of CCR2-DTR mice after S. aureus infection displayed significant decreases in interleukin-12 (IL-12), IFN-γ, IP-10, MIG and RANTES, all IFN-γ regulated, compared to wild-type (WT) infected controls. NK cells were identified as the main producers of IFN-γ, but both NK cells and IFN-γ were dispensable for clearance. We demonstrated through cytokine production and RNA-seq analysis that IL-12 and IL-12 regulated genes are strongly induced in monocytes upon S. aureus infection. Administration of IL-12 during infection restored the bacterial burdens in the BALF and lungs of monocyte-depleted CCR2-DTR mice to the levels of WT mice, independent of IFN-γ. In the absence of monocytes, alveolar macrophages are the primary phagocytic cells, and IL-12 influences their capacity to produce reactive oxygen species and clear S. aureus. These results show that production of IL-12 contributes to the control of S. aureus via its influence on alveolar macrophage function.</p>","PeriodicalId":48999,"journal":{"name":"PLoS Pathogens","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11521269/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142478582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we demonstrated that swine NONO (sNONO) inhibited PRRSV replication, via increasing expression of IFN-β, whereas NONO knockdown or knockout in PAM-KNU cells was more susceptible to PRRSV infection. As an IRF3 positive regulation factor, NONO promoted IFN-β expression by enhancing activation of IRF3. During PRRSV infection, NONO further up-regulated IRF3-mediated IFN-β expression by interacting with PRRSV N protein.

Interestingly, it was found that the NONO protein reversed the inhibitory effect of PRRSV N protein on type I IFN signaling pathway.

Deletion of pdhR in EHEC significantly impacted the transcription of hundreds of genes, with pathogenesis and protein secretion emerging as the most affected functional categories.
