A little guide for advanced search:

  • Tip 1. You can use quotes "" to search for an exact expression.
    Example: "cell division"
  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem
e.g. searching for members in projects tagged cancer

Genes Immun 2025 Sep; ():

Innate immune memory, also called trained immunity, refers to the ability of innate immune cells to gain memory characteristics after transient stimulation, resulting in a nonspecific modified inflammatory response upon secondary remote challenge. Bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) participate in innate immune defence and are the first cells of the lower respiratory tract to encounter inhaled pathogens. We recently showed that BECs are capable of innate immune memory after preexposure to Pseudomonas aeruginosa flagellin through epigenetic mechanisms. In the present study, we investigated such mechanisms through the modification of chromatin architecture induced by flagellin preexposure that results in subsequent changes of gene expression. By conducting an unsupervised approach to jointly analyse chromatin accessibility and gene expression, we mapped the remodelling of the epigenomic and transcriptomic profiles during the establishment of BECs memory. We identified a Memory regulatory profile induced by flagellin exposure. It includes clusters of upregulated genes related to inflammation that are linked to a sustainable gain in chromatin accessibility and with an increased activity of specific transcription factors (TFs) whose binding may drive this process. In summary, we demonstrated that flagellin exposure induced changes in chromatin condensation in BECs, which sustains the reprogramming of transcriptional patterns.
