Brief Summary: Background

Staphylococcus aureus S aureus are bacteria that can make people sick Sometimes an S aureus infection can develop inside the spine these infections can lead to paralysis and death Researchers do not know how S aureus interacts with a person s cells to cause infections in the spine

Objective

To learn how S aureus interacts with cells in the body using tissues from tonsils discarded after standard surgery to remove them

Eligibility

People aged 2 years and older who are scheduled to have their tonsils removed

Design

Researchers will select participants for the study based on review of their existing medical records including results of blood tests any imaging scans including x-rays and reports about tissue specimens

Participants will answer questionnaires about their health and past infections They can do this online or on paper

Participants will collect a nasal swab 1 week before their surgery They will be given a tool that looks like a long cotton swab They will twirl it around inside their nose The swab will pick up cells and fluids that will be used for research

After their surgery the participant s surgeon will save samples of tonsil tissue The surgeon will send these tissue samples and the nasal swab to researchers at the NIH

These tissues and the swab will be used in studies to help researchers understand how S aureus interacts with cells in the body They hope these studies will help them find better ways to treat S aureus infections
Detailed Description: STUDY DESCRIPTION

The purpose of this study is to collect tonsil tissues that are routinely discarded after tonsillectomy procedures to develop lymphoid organoid models to evaluate host-pathogen interactions in human health and disease One such interaction is the human immunotolerance mechanism to the Chemotaxis Inhibitory Protein of S aureus CHIPS

OBJECTIVES

Primary Objectives

-Develop a lymphoid organoid model from discarded human tonsils and determine and compare the human immunologic signatures of primary exposure within the antigenic sin contexts of re-exposure and with repeated exposures to CHIPS

Secondary Objective

-Modulate anti-CHIPS IgG4 class switching through variation of primary and costimulatory signals

ENDPOINTS

Primary Endpoints

Differences between the following within the antigenic sin contexts of re-exposure and with repeated exposures to CHIPS

Immune cell composition
Anti-CHIPS antibody levels including total and subclasses of IgG and their neutralizing capacity
Cytokine levels
Activation-induced cytidine deaminase AID levels
Single-cell inference of class switch recombination sciCSR

Secondary Endpoints

Differences between the following modulation of primary and costimulatory signals

Immune cell composition
Anti-CHIPS antibody levels including total and subclasses of IgG and their neutralizing capacity
Cytokine levels
AID levels
sciCSR
