Two assays for microscopy-based high-throughput screening of host factors involved in Brucella infection are described. The entry assay detects host factors required for Brucella entry and the endpoint assay those required for intracellular replication. While applicable for alternative approaches, siRNA screening in HeLa cells is used to illustrate the protocols.

Abstract

布鲁氏菌的物种是感染的动物作为天然宿主兼细胞内病原体。传播给人类最常通过与受感染的动物的直接接触或通过污染的食物摄入引起的,并可能导致严重的慢性感染。

布鲁氏菌可以侵入的专业和非专业的吞噬细胞和内质网(ER)衍生空泡内复制。 布鲁氏菌对进入宿主细胞,溶酶体降解的回避和复制在ER形腔室所需的宿主因素仍是未知。在这里,我们描述两个测定以鉴定参与在HeLa细胞布鲁氏条目和复制宿主因素。该协议描述了使用RNA干扰的同时,可应用替代的筛选方法。该测定法基于检测荧光标记的细菌使用自动化在荧光标记的宿主细胞宽视野显微镜。荧光图像用CellProfiler标准化图像分析管道,允许单细胞为基础的感染得分进行分析。

在端点检测,细胞内的复制感染两天后进行测量。这使得细菌交通到增殖的细菌进入。 布鲁氏菌已成功建立了一种细胞内的利基将因此已在宿主细胞内增殖强烈围绕后12小时开始他们的复制利基。因为细胞内的细菌会的数量大大超过个别的细胞外或细胞内非复制性的细菌,应变组成型表达绿色荧光蛋白可以使用。然后强GFP信号是用来识别被感染的细胞。

与此相反,对于条目测定是必不可少的细胞内和细胞外的细菌区分开来。这里,被用于四环素诱导的GFP的菌株的编码。感应与由庆大霉素胞菌的同时失活的GFP使细胞内和细胞基于所述GFP信号外细菌之间的分化,与仅细胞内细菌能够表达GFP。这允许鲁棒检测单胞菌的启动细胞内增殖之前。

Introduction

布鲁氏菌物种是属于类α-变形菌的革兰氏阴性,兼性细胞内病原体。它们引起流产和不孕在其自然宿主如牛,山羊,绵羊或导致在流行地区严重的经济损失。布鲁氏菌病是最重要的人畜共患病引起全球每年超过五十万新的人类感染1之一。传输给人类最常用的是与受感染动物的直接接触或通过污染的食物摄入引起的,如未经高温消毒的牛奶。发热疾病的症状是非特异性的,这会导致困难布鲁氏菌病诊断。如果不治疗,患者可发展为慢性感染更严重的症状,如关节炎,心内膜炎,和神经病2。

细胞水平上的布鲁氏菌能够侵入吞噬细胞和非吞噬细胞和细胞内内复制车厢被称为布鲁氏菌含泡(BCV)。细菌的内化外消旋,卢,和Cdc42 3直接激活需要肌动蛋白骨架重排。真核宿主细胞内部,沿BCV内吞途径贩卖,尽管与溶酶体的相互作用,细菌设法避免降解4。由囊泡ATP酶的BCV酸化时需要引起细菌IV型分泌系统(T4SS)5的表达。据认为,由T4SS分泌细菌效应是必不可少的布鲁氏菌 ,以确立其复制利基,由于T4SS 6的缺失或囊泡ATP酶引线抑制在建立细胞小生7的缺陷。细菌中,直到他们贩卖的阶段不复制 达成ER衍生的液泡车厢8。一旦细胞内增殖时,BCV在CL发现与ER标志物如钙联接蛋白和葡萄糖-6-磷酸酶6 OSE关联。

布鲁氏菌进入细胞,避免溶酶体降解,最后复制在ER-状隔间的分子机制仍是未知。参与感染的不同步骤宿主因素主要被确定的目标的方法或小规模小干扰RNA(siRNA)在果蝇细胞9执行屏幕。这些都揭示个人的宿主因素的布鲁氏菌感染过程中的贡献,但我们仍远未整个过程有全面的了解。

这里,协议,允许使用与自动宽视场荧光显微镜和自动图像分析相结合的大型RNA干扰(RNAi)筛选人类宿主因子的鉴定呈现。 HeLa细胞反向siRNA转染作为describ进行ED早期10,11稍作修改。端点测定覆盖除了出口和感染邻近细胞的布鲁氏菌细胞内的生命周期的很大一部分。为了进一步表征在端点测定法鉴定的命中,则使用一个修改协议,以确定所涉及的感染的早期步骤的因素。

组成型表达GFP一个流产布鲁氏菌菌株用于细菌的地方允许感染细胞两天端点检测。在此期间,细菌进入细胞,投放到ER衍生的复制利基,并在周围核空间复制。高水平的GFP信号然后可用于可靠地检测含复制的细菌的单个细胞。

为了研究在高通量检测布鲁项,它是能够细胞内外细菌区分重要。该方法在这里circumv介绍经济需求测试的细胞内和细胞外的细菌差速器抗体染色。它是基于一个布氏杆菌菌株表达结合的四环素诱导的GFP与DsRed的组成型表达。组成型DsRed的标志物的存在允许在样品中存在的所有的细菌的鉴定。 GFP表达是由庆大霉素加入无毒四环素类似物无水四环素(ATC)与细胞外细菌的灭活同时的(GM)诱导。而细胞不透抗生素了Gm杀死胞外细菌,的aTc可以进入宿主细胞并在细胞内细菌选择性诱导GFP表达。此双报告允许使用宽视场显微镜从胞菌(仅DsRed的信号)单胞菌(GFP和DsRed的信号)的健壮的分离。为了通过细胞内布鲁氏菌达到可检测的GFP表达,我们已经发现,通过的aTc 4小时的诱导导致RELI能信号。类似的诱导方案在胞内细菌选择性地表达GFP先前已用于研究细胞内的志贺氏菌 12。

Representative Results

图1A示出用于自动识别在端点检测感染细胞的图像分析的一个例子。用DAPI染色的HeLa细胞的细胞核被确定,包围核8像素宽度的周围核,以及由25个像素的核的扩展Voronoi单元体进行了计算。因为细菌主要增殖在围核的空间,在这个范围内的小区的GFP强度是最稳健的测​​定感染的和非感染的细胞之间进行区分。在某些情况下,细菌被发现围核或覆盖的外扩散与?…

Discussion

Bacterial pathogens have evolved numerous strategies to manipulate eukaryotic host cells to their benefit. Pathogens causing acute infections often show rapid proliferation which is accompanied by significant alarming of the immune system and loss of viability of infected cells. In contrast, Brucella and other pathogens that cause chronic infections manage to establish long-lasting interactions within host cells. Therefore, bacteria need to fine tune host cell functions to their benefit without disrupting cellul…
