Human tetraspanin CD81 facilitates invasion of Salmonella enterica into human epithelial cells

La tétraspanine humaine CD81 facilite l'invasion de Salmonella enterica dans les cellules épithéliales humaines

Abstract

Human CD81 and CD9 are members of the tetraspanin family of proteins characterized by a canonical structure of four transmembrane domains and two extracellular loop domains. Tetraspanins are known as molecular facilitators, which assemble and organize cell surface receptors and partner molecules forming clusters known as tetraspanin-enriched microdomains. They have been implicated to play various biological roles including an involvement in infections with microbial pathogens. Here, we demonstrate an important role of CD81 for the invasion of epithelial cells by Salmonella enterica. We show that overexpression of CD81 in HepG2 cells enhances invasion of various typhoidal and non-typhoidal Salmonella serovars. Deletion of CD81 by CRISPR/Cas9 in intestinal epithelial cells (C2BBe1 and HT29-MTX-E12) reduces S. Typhimurium invasion. In addition, the effect of human CD81 is species-specific as only human but not rat CD81 facilitates Salmonella invasion. Finally, immunofluorescence microscopy and proximity ligation assay revealed that both human tetraspanins CD81 and CD9 are recruited to the entry site of S. Typhimurium during invasion but not during adhesion to the host cell surface. Overall, we demonstrate that the human tetraspanin CD81 facilitates Salmonella invasion into epithelial host cells.
