The commensal protist Tritrichomonas musculus exhibits a dynamic life cycle that induces extensive remodeling of the gut microbiota

A. Popovic, E. Y. Cao, J. Han, N. Nursimulu, E. V. C. Alves-Ferreira, K. Burrows, A. Kennard, N. Alsmadi, M. E. Grigg, A. Mortha, J. Parkinson

This study examines the impact of the commensal protist Tritrichomonas musculus on gut microbiota dynamics in mice, revealing protist-driven microbiome remodeling and distinct life stages of the protist.

The protozoan commensal Tritrichomonas musculis is a natural adjuvant for mucosal IgA.

E. Y. Cao, K. Burrows, P. Chiaranunt, A. Popovic, X. Zhou, C. Xie, A. Thakur, G. J. Britton, M. P. Spindler, L. Ngai, S. L. Tai, D. C. Dasoveanu, A. Nguyen, J. J. Faith, J. Parkinson, , A. Mortha

This study shows that the protozoan commensal Tritrichomonas musculis promotes T-cell dependent IgA class-switch recombination and enhances IgA-secreting plasma cell accumulation and dissemination.

NLRP1B and NLRP3 control the host response following colonization by the commensal protist Tritrichomonas musculis.

P. Chiaranunt, K. Burrows, L. Ngai, E. Y. Cao, H. Liang, C. J. Streuker, S. Girardin, A. Mortha

This study shows that NLRP1B and NLRP3 inflammasomes are required for the host immune response to the commensal protist Tritrichomonas musculis, which protects against Salmonella infections.
