Expression ofPseudomonas aeruginosaToxin ExoS Effectively Induces Apoptosis in Host Cells

Abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen that primarily infects immunocompromised individuals and patients with cystic fibrosis. Invasive strains of P. aeruginosa are known to induce apoptosis at a high frequency in HeLa cells and in many other cell lines, a process that is dependent on the ADPribosylation (ADPRT) activity of a type III secreted protein ExoS. In our previous report, it was proposed that P. aeruginosa secreting ExoS, upon infection, shuts down host cell survival signal path… Show more

“…The data show that the ADP-r activity of ExoS is involved, which could relate to known cellular effects of ExoS in disrupting epithelial cytoskeleton function, endosome trafficking, signal transduction, and the induction of apoptosis, each of which involves ADP-ribosylation of various host cell targets (3,9,20,29,36,39). Future studies will advance our understanding of the relationship between T3SS P. aeruginosa invasion bleb niche formation and intracellular survival within epithelial cells, the role of ExoS (and its ADP-r activity) in promoting P. aeruginosa survival within, and traversal of, epithelial barriers (48), and the contributions of ExoS to virulence in vivo (32,47).…”

“…The uncoupling of Rab signaling may enable P. aeruginosa to evade trafficking to perinuclear vacuoles, which we previously showed display late endocytic markers when T3SS mutants traffic, while endowing P. aeruginosa with the capacity for intracellular replication. Finally, ExoS ADP-r activity has been shown to mediate P. aeruginosa-induced apoptosis in epithelial cells (29,30). Cells with bleb niches not only tend to be rounded, which is characteristic of apoptosis, but also tend to be labeled with annexin V-EGFP, an early apoptotic marker (51).…”

“…ExoS preferentially ADP ribosylates several Ras families of GTP-binding proteins required for the regulation of intracellular vesicle transport, cell proliferation, and differentiation (7,18). The ADP ribosyltransferase activity of ExoS causes programmed cell death in various types of host cells (26,27,29). ExoT preferentially ADP ribosylates Crk-I and Crk-II proteins in vivo (48) and inhibits host cell division by targeting cytokinesis (46).…”

“…While in vitro research has focused mostly on deciphering the active domains of T3SS effectors and their host cell molecular targets (1,5,12,30,31,33,43,57,60), in vivo studies have concentrated largely on proving that effectors and their in vitro-defined active domains contribute to disease (42,53,61,71). Molecular and cellular relationships between in vitrodefined activities and the in vivo roles of the T3SS are yet to be established, in particular as they relate to the sequence of events enabling bacterial survival and to the numerous cell types and conditions under which bacteria interact with the infected host.…”
