IRG1/ACOD1 promotes neutrophil reverse migration and alleviates local inflammation.

ABSTRACT: Polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) infiltration at inflammatory site plays a critical role in inflammation. PMN reverse migration (rM) describes the phenomenon that PMNs migrate away from inflammatory site back into the vasculature, and its role within inflammatory scenarios remains to be fully determined. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism underlying PMN rM and its role in inflammation. First, we demonstrated PMN rM in a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung inflammation. By single-cell RNA sequencing, we demonstrated that reverse migrated (rM-ed) PMNs in blood expressed a high level of immune-responsive gene 1 (Irg1), the encoding gene of cis-aconitate decarboxylase (ACOD1). Using a mouse air pouch model, which enabled us to directly track rM-ed PMNs in vivo, we
