- W2741486987 abstract "Abstract Toxoplasma gondii is a major source of congenital disease worldwide, but the cellular and molecular factors associated with its vertical transmission are largely unknown. In humans, the placenta forms the key interface between the maternal and fetal compartments and forms the primary barrier that restricts the hematogenous spread of microorganisms. Here, we utilized primary human trophoblast (PHT) cells isolated from full-term placentas and human mid-gestation chorionic villous explants to determine the mechanisms by which human trophoblasts restrict and respond to T. gondii infection. We show that placental syncytiotrophoblasts, multinucleated cells that are in direct contact with maternal blood, restrict T. gondii infection at distinct stages of the parasite lytic cycle—at the time of attachment and also during intracellular replication. Utilizing comparative RNAseq transcriptional profiling, we also show that human placental trophoblasts at both mid- and late-stages of gestation induce the chemokine CCL22 in response to T. gondii infection, which relies on the secretion of parasite effector(s). Collectively, our findings provide new insights into the mechanisms by which the human placenta restricts the vertical transmission of T. gondii at early and late stages of human pregnancy, and demonstrate the existence of at least two interferon-independent pathways that restrict T. gondii access to the fetal compartment. Significance statement Toxoplasma gondii is a major source of congenital disease worldwide and must breach the placental barrier to be transmitted from maternal blood to the developing fetus. The events associated with the vertical transmission of T. gondii are largely unknown. Here, we show that primary human syncytiotrophoblasts, the fetal-derived cells that comprise the primary placental barrier, restrict T. gondii infection at two distinct stages of the parasite life cycle and respond to infection through the induction of the chemokine CCL22. Collectively, our findings provide important insights into the mechanisms by which human syncytiotrophoblasts restrict T. gondii infection at early and late stages of human pregnancy and identify the placental-enriched signaling pathways induced in response to infection." @default.
