#METABOLOMICS WORKBENCH NurMar_20240117_071050 DATATRACK_ID:4585 STUDY_ID:ST003047 ANALYSIS_ID:AN004998 PROJECT_ID:PR001897 VERSION 1 CREATED_ON January 19, 2024, 1:47 pm #PROJECT PR:PROJECT_TITLE Defective mitochondria remodelling in B cells leads to an aged immune response PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY The germinal centre (GC) reaction requires a unique bioenergetic supply. PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY Although mitochondria are remodelled upon antigen stimulation, mitochondrial PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY function in B cells is still poorly understood. To gain a better understanding PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY of the role of mitochondria in B cell function, we generated mice that lack, PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY specifically in B cells, Tfam, a transcription factor necessary for PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY mitochondrial biogenesis. Tfam knock-out (KO) mice displayed a blockage of the PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY GC reaction and established an immune response featured by the differentiation PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY of activated B cells towards memory B cells and aged-related B cells, hallmarks PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY of an aged immune response. Unexpectedly, GC blockage in Tfam KO mice did not PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY cause defects in the bioenergetic supply, but this phenotype was associated with PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY a defect in the remodelling of the lysosomal compartment in B cells. Therefore, PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY these results may describe a new mitochondrial function for antigen presentation PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY during the GC reaction, the abrogation of which may be the basis of an aged PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY immune response.

MB1Cre mice were kindly provided by Alarcón B CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY (CBMSO, Madrid, Spain). Mouse colonies were bred at the CBMSO under specific CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY pathogen-free conditions and on C57BL/6 background. Mice were group-housed, have CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY not been used in previous procedures and were fed with standard chow. CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY Littermates were randomly assigned to experimental groups. Male and female CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY between the ages of 8-16 weeks were used for the experiment. Splenic naive B CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY lymphocytes were purified using negative B cell cell isolation kits (Miltenyi CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY Biotec). After 24 hours stimulation, live cells were sorted, pelleted and frozen CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY with liquid N2. CO:COLLECTION_PROTOCOL_FILENAME Protocol_BL.pdf CO:SAMPLE_TYPE B-cells #TREATMENT TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY Mice were group-housed and fed with standard chow. B lympchocytes from wild-type TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY and knock-out mice were isolated and cultured for 24 hours in RPMI 1640 TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY supplemented with 10% FCS, 1mM Glutamine, 0,01% sodium pyruvate, 20mM TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY 2-mercaptoethanol, penicillin and streptomycin. Cells were cultured adding TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY interleukine-4 and interleukine-5 at 10 ng/Ml, anti-IgM 1 ug/mL and anti-CD40 TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY 0,3 ug/mL. #SAMPLEPREP SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY From wild-type samples WT_A, WT_B and WT_C 5.6 x 106, 6.4 x 106 and 4.87 x 106 B SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY lymphocytes were harvested respectively, and for knock-out samples KO_D, KO_E SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY and KO_F 1.8 x 106, 2.1 x 106 and 1.8 x 106 B lymphocytes were harvested SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY respectively. Cell homogenates were prepared by adding 1:1 v/v water: methanol SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY and sonicated with a dr.hielscher UP200S (dr.hielscher, Berlin, Germany), set up SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY to 80% intensity, 0.5 s/pulse, 16 pulses. For GC-MS, 100 µL of each homogenate SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY was mixed with 300 µL of cold methanol containing 25 ppm D-palmitic acid SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY (internal standard), vortex mixed for 60 min and centrifuged at 4000 g for 20 SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY min. 250 µL of the supernatant were transferred to a vial with a glass insert SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY and evaporated to dryness in a Gyrozen HyperVac VC2124 (Gimpo, Korea) coupled to SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY a LVS 110Z (Gardner Denver Thomas GmbH Welch Vacuum, Fürstenfeldbruck, SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY Germany). The samples were then submitted to methoximation (with O-methoxyamine) SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY for 16 h and silylation for 1 h at 70ºC with SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY N,O-Bis(trime5j,thylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) and trimethylchlorosilane SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY (TCMS), and finally resuspended in 100 µL heptane. SP:SAMPLEPREP_PROTOCOL_FILENAME Protocol_BL.pdf #CHROMATOGRAPHY CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY For GC-MS, the samples were injected onto a DB5-MS column (30 m x 0.250 mm, 0.25 CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY µm) with a 10 m pre-column (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara CA, USA). Helium CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY was used as mobile phase at constant flow rate (1 mL/min) in a GC-Q-MS (8890 GC CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY coupled to 5977B MS) system (Agilent Technologies) with an Electron Ionization CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY (EI) source at 70 eV.
