Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Autophagy is an intrinsic host defense system that recognizes and eliminates invading bacterial pathogens. We have identified microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), a marker protein of autophagy, as a binding partner of phospholipase C-related catalytically inactive protein (PRIP). To disclose the molecular mechanisms of bacterial elimination by autophagic pathway, we here examined by using a Salmonella Typhimurium infection assay. In mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) infected with Salmonella, the number of intracellular Salmonella and Salmonella in LC3-positive autophagosome-like vacuoles (SCVs: Salmonella containing vacuoles) were both increased in Prip-knockout (KO) MEFs. In addition, we analyzed autophagic flux, and autophagic flux in Prip-KO MEFs was impaired. Altogether, impaired acidification in SCVs of Prip-KO MEFs may induce abnormality in antibacterial autophagy, resulting in remarkable Salmonella proliferation.
