Bone marrow stromal cells attenuate sepsis via prostaglandin E(2)-dependent reprogramming of host macrophages to increase their interleukin-10 production.

ABSTRACT: Sepsis causes over 200,000 deaths yearly in the US; better treatments are urgently needed. Administering bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs -- also known as mesenchymal stem cells) to mice before or shortly after inducing sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture reduced mortality and improved organ function. The beneficial effect of BMSCs was eliminated by macrophage depletion or pretreatment with antibodies specific for interleukin-10 (IL-10) or IL-10 receptor. Monocytes and/or macrophages from septic lungs made more IL-10 when prepared from mice treated with BMSCs versus untreated mice. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages produced more IL-10 when cultured with BMSCs, but this effect was eliminated if the BMSCs lacked the genes encoding Toll-like receptor 4, myeloid differentiation primary response gene-88, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-1a or cyclooxygenase-2. Our results suggest that BMSCs (activated by LPS or TNF-alpha) reprogram macrophages by releasing prostaglandin E(2) that acts on the macrophages through the prostaglandin EP2 and EP4 receptors. Because BMSCs have been successfully given to humans and can easily be cultured and might be used without human leukocyte antigen matching, we suggest that cultured, banked human BMSCs may be effective in treating sepsis in high-risk patient groups.

Project description:Background Chronic sustained pressure overload induces cardiac remodeling, which often leads to heart failure. Cardiac macrophages (cMacs) are heterogeneous cell populations, and their elimination has been shown to exacerbate pressure overload-induced heart failure. CD163, a macrophage-specific scavenger receptor expressed in a subset of cMacs, has been linked to cardiovascular events through its serum soluble form. This study aimed to elucidate the functional role of the CD163+ cMacs subset in pressure overload-induced heart failure. Methods Transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was performed on wild-type and CD163-deficient (Cd163-/-) mice to investigate the role of CD163 in pressure overload-induced cardiac remodeling and heart failure. Echocardiography was used to assess heart structure and function. Transcriptomic analysis and transmission electron microscopy were employed to observe mitochondrial structure in cardiomyocytes. Flow cytometry was used to quantify cMacs and cytokine-expressing cMacs in the heart. Additionally, serum samples from hypertensive patients with and without heart failure were analyzed to explore the relationship between CD163 and heart failure. Results TAC-induced left ventricular systolic dysfunction, including reduced ejection fraction and fractional shortening, was significantly aggravated in Cd163-/- mice post-surgery. Genes differentially expressed due to CD163 deficiency were enriched in pathways related to mitochondrial bioenergetics and homeostasis. Transmission electron microscopy revealed an increase in dysfunctional mitochondria in cardiomyocytes of Cd163-/- mice post-TAC. Additionally, decreased serum interleukin (IL)-10 levels and reduced IL-10 expression in cMacs were observed in Cd163-/- mice post-TAC. IL-10 supplementation significantly reversed TAC-induced reductions in left ventricular systolic function and improved mitochondrial bioenergetics and homeostasis in Cd163-/- mice. Conclusions The protective functions of CD163 in cMacs are associated with IL-10 expression during pressure overload-induced heart failure.

Project description:Reticuloendothelial macrophages engulf ∼0.2 trillion senescent erythrocytes daily in a process called erythrophagocytosis (EP). This critical mechanism preserves systemic heme-iron homeostasis by regulating red blood cell (RBC) catabolism and iron recycling. Although extensive work has demonstrated the various effects on macrophage metabolic reprogramming by stimulation with proinflammatory cytokines, little is known about the impact of EP on the macrophage metabolome and proteome. Thus, we performed mass spectrometry-based metabolomics and proteomics analyses of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) before and after EP of IgG-coated RBCs. Further, metabolomics was performed on BMDMs incubated with free IgG to ensure that changes to macrophage metabolism were due to opsonized RBCs and not to free IgG binding. Uniformly labeled tracing experiments were conducted on BMDMs in the presence and absence of IgG-coated RBCs to assess the flux of glucose through the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). In this study, we demonstrate that EP significantly alters amino acid and fatty acid metabolism, the Krebs cycle, OXPHOS, and arachidonate-linoleate metabolism. Increases in levels of amino acids, lipids and oxylipins, heme products, and RBC-derived proteins are noted in BMDMs following EP. Tracing experiments with U-13C6 glucose indicated a slower flux through glycolysis and enhanced PPP activation. Notably, we show that it is fueled by glucose derived from the macrophages themselves or from the extracellular media prior to EP, but not from opsonized RBCs. The PPP-derived NADPH can then fuel the oxidative burst, leading to the generation of reactive oxygen species necessary to promote digestion of phagocytosed RBC proteins via radical attack. Results were confirmed by redox proteomics experiments, demonstrating the oxidation of Cys152 and Cys94 of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and hemoglobin-β, respectively. Significant increases in early Krebs cycle and C5-branched dibasic acid metabolites (α-ketoglutarate and 2-hydroxyglutarate, respectively) indicate that EP promotes the dysregulation of mitochondrial metabolism. Lastly, EP stimulated aminolevulinic acid (ALA) synthase and arginase activity as indicated by significant accumulations of ALA and ornithine after IgG-mediated RBC ingestion. Importantly, EP-mediated metabolic reprogramming of BMDMs does not occur following exposure to IgG alone. In conclusion, we show that EP reprograms macrophage metabolism and modifies macrophage polarization.
