The human NAIP-NLRC4-inflammasome senses the Pseudomonas aeruginosa T3SS inner-rod protein

Abstract
While NLRC4-dependent sensing of intracellular Gram-negative pathogens such as Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium is a beneficial host response, NLRC4-dependent sensing of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa type 3 secretion system (T3SS) has been shown to be involved in pathogenicity. In mice, different pathogen-associated microbial patterns are sensed by the combination of the NLRC4-inflammasome with different neuronal apoptosis inhibitory proteins (NAIPs). NAIP2 is involved in sensing PscI, an inner-rod protein of the P. aeruginosa T3SS. Surprisingly, only a single human NAIP (hNAIP) has been found. Moreover, there is no description of hNAIP-NLRC4 inflammasome recognition of T3SS inner-rod proteins in humans. Here, we show that the P. aeruginosa T3SS inner-rod protein PscI and needle protein PscF are both sensed by the hNAIP-NLRC4 inflammasome in human macrophages and PBMCs from healthy donors, allowing caspase-1 and IL-1β maturation and resulting in a robust inflammatory response. TLR4 and TLR2 are involved in redundantly sensing these two T3SS components.
