Mitochondrial metabolism is rapidly re-activated in mature neutrophils to support stimulation-induced response.

ABSTRACT: Neutrophils are highly abundant innate immune cells that are constantly produced from myeloid progenitors in the bone marrow. Differentiated neutrophils can perform an arsenal of effector functions critical for host defense. This study aims to quantitatively understand neutrophil mitochondrial metabolism throughout differentiation and activation, and to elucidate the impact of mitochondrial metabolism on neutrophil functions. To study metabolic remodeling throughout neutrophil differentiation, murine ER-Hoxb8 myeloid progenitor-derived neutrophils and human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neutrophils were assessed as models. To study the metabolic remodeling upon neutrophil activation, differentiated ER-Hoxb8 neutrophils and primary human neutrophils were activated with various stimu
