TRAIL expressing monocyte/macrophages reduce inflammation and attenuate atherosclerosis

ABSTRACT: Circulating TRAIL is reduced in cardiovascular disease patients and TRAIL deletion in mice exacerbates disease. The source of TRAIL and protective mechanism(s) are unclear. Monocyte TRAIL mRNA was reduced from coronary artery disease patients, strikingly associating with reduced plasma TRAIL. A strong inverse correlation between plasma TRAIL and IL-18 was observed, with IL-18 repressing monocyte TRAIL mRNA. In mice, two sources were investigated using bone-marrow (BM) transplants; TRAIL expressed only in BM (BM-TRAIL) or everywhere except BM (parenchymal-TRAIL), vs. whole-body TRAIL ablation (null-TRAIL). BM-TRAIL attenuated macrophage content and atherosclerosis. BM-derived macrophages with TRAIL deletion were more inflammatory, with impaired migration and reduced expression of cholesterol efflux, efferocytosis and nitric oxide-controlling genes. TRAIL expression also reduced islet macrophage content, but only parenchymal-TRAIL islets had improved function. Recombinant TRAIL administration stimulated insulin expression and islet mass. We propose TRAIL maintains monocyte/macrophage homeostasis and limits the progression of atherosclerosis and islet dysfunction.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) promote macrophage inflammation and impair atherosclerosis resolution in mice with diabetes

Project description:Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) promote inflammation and atherosclerosis progression. In diabetes they are increased and impair wound healing, during which inflammation normally resolves. Atherosclerosis regression, a process resembling wound healing, is also impaired in diabetes. Thus, we hypothesized that NETs impede atherosclerosis regression in diabetes through unresolved inflammation. Objective: To investigate in diabetes the effect of NETs on plaque macrophage inflammation and whether NETs reduction improves atherosclerosis regression. Findings: Transcriptomic profiling of plaque macrophages from NET positive and negative areas in Ldlr-/- mice revealed inflammasome and glycolysis pathway upregulation, indicating a pro-inflammatory phenotype. During atherosclerosis regression in non-diabetic mice, plaque NET content decreased. In contrast, in diabetic mouse plaques NETs were enriched and persisted after lipid-lowering. DNase1 treatment (to degrade NETs) of diabetic mice reduced plaque NETs and macrophage inflammation and improved atherosclerosis regression after lipid-lowering. Conclusions: NETs decline during atherosclerosis regression in non-diabetic mice, but persist in diabetes and impair regression by exacerbating macrophage inflammation. DNase1 reduced diabetic plaque NETs and macrophage inflammation, and restored atherosclerosis resolution after lipid-lowering, despite ongoing hyperglycemia. Given that humans with diabetes also exhibit impaired atherosclerosis resolution with lipid-lowering, these data suggest that NETs contribute to the increased CVD risk in this population.

Athsq1 is linked to Cdkn2a

Project description:Common genetic variants in a 58-kilobase (kb) region of chromosome 9p21, near the CDKN2A/B cell proliferation inhibitor genes, are strongly associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). We previously reported a congenic mouse model harboring an atherosclerosis susceptibility locus in a region of homology with the human 9p21 locus. We now report markedly decreased Cdkn2a (cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2a) mRNA expression in macrophages and increased circulating levels of Ly6Chigh inflammatory monocytes in congenic mice compared to controls. A bone marrow (BM) transplantation study revealed that BM-derived cells from Cdkn2a+/- mice are capable of conferring accelerated atherosclerosis, increased inflammatory monocyte subsets and monocyte proliferation in the Ldlr-/- mouse model. These findings provide a mechanistic link between decreased expression of Cdkn2a transcripts, increased monocyte proliferation, and accelerated atherosclerosis.

IL-17A influences essential functions of the monocyte / macrophage lineage and is involved in advanced murine and human atherosclerosis

Project description:Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. Lesion progression is primarily mediated by cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Interleukin-17A is a pro-inflammatory cytokine, which modulates immune cell trafficking and is involved inflammation in (auto)immune and infectious diseases. But the role of IL-17A still remains controversial. In the current study we investigated effects of IL-17A on advanced murine and human atherosclerosis, the common disease phenotype in clinical care. 26-weeks old apolipoprotein E-deficient (Apoe-/-) mice were fed a standard chow diet and treated either with IL-17A mAb (n=15) or irrelevant immunoglobulin (n=10) for 16 weeks. Furthermore, essential mechanisms of IL-17A in atherogenesis were studied in vitro. Inhibition of IL-17A markedly prevented atherosclerotic lesion progression (P=0.001) by reducing inflammatory burden and cellular infiltration (P=0.01) and improved lesion stability (P=0.01). In vitro experiments showed that IL-17A plays a role in chemoattractance, monocyte adhesion, sensitization of antigen-presenting cells toward pathogen-derived TLR4 ligands. Also, IL-17A induced a unique transcriptome pattern in monocyte-derived macrophages distinct from known macrophage types. Stimulation of human carotid plaque tissue ex vivo with IL-17A induced a pro-inflammatory milieu and up-regulation of molecules expressed by the IL-17A-induced macrophage subtype. We here show for the first time that functional blockade of IL-17A prevents atherosclerotic lesion progression and induces plaque stabilization in advanced lesions in Apoe-/- mice. The underlying mechanisms involve reduced inflammation and distinct effects of IL-17A on monocyte / macrophage lineage. In addition, translational experiments underline the relevance for the human system. Effects of IL-17A on human monocyte-derived macrophages were assessed (n=2 per group).

In depth analysis reveals promotion of human macrophage polarization towards a proinflammatory M1 phenotype by TRAIL

Project description:The study aimed to investigate the impact of TRAIL on primary human M1, M2a and M2c macrophage polarization. Primary human monocyte-derived macrophages were pre-stimulated with TRAIL and then either left unpolarized (M0) or polarized into M1, M2a, or M2c phenotypes Then, RNA sequencing analysis was performed in 4 healthy donors including treated and control groups for one time point to analyze the differentially expressed M1 and M2 markers in TRAIL treated vs control groups.

Comparsion of IGRP reactive CD8 T cell clones

Project description:Autoreactive CD8+ T-cells recognizing autoantigens expressed by pancreatic islets lead to the destruction of insulin-producing β-cells in type 1 diabetes, but these T-cell also occur in healthy subjects. We tested the hypothesis that uncontrolled expansion of diabetogenic T-cells in patients occurs, resulting from failure to activate apoptosis. We compared function, transcriptome and epigenetic regulation thereof in relation with fate upon repeated exposure to islet-autoantigen of islet autoreactive T-cells from healthy and type 1 diabetic donors with identical islet epitope specificity and HLA-A2 restriction. Patient's T-cells proliferated exponentially, whereas those of non-diabetic origin succumbed to cell death. Transcriptome analysis revealed reduced expression of TRAIL, TRAIL-R2, FAS and FASLG (members of the extrinsic apoptosis pathway) in patient-derived compared to healthy-donor-derived T cells. This was mirrored by increased expression of microRNAs predicted to regulate these particular genes, namely miR-98, miR-23b and miR-590-5p. Gene specific targeting by these microRNAs was confirmed using dual-luciferase reporter assays. Finally, transfection of these microRNAs into primary T-cells reduced FAS and TRAIL mRNA underscoring their functional relevance. We propose that repression of pro-apoptotic pathways by microRNAs contributes to unrestricted expansion of diabetogenic cytotoxic T-cells, implicating microRNA-mediated gene silencing in islet autoimmunity in T1D.

CD40-TRAF6, mTOR and S6K1 targeted inhibition of macrophage dynamics resolves atherosclerotic plaque inflammation

Project description:In atherosclerosis, macrophage accumulation is directly linked to destabilization and rupture of plaque, causing acute atherothrombotic events. Circulating monocytes enter the plaque and differentiate into macrophages, where they are activated by CD4+ T-lymphocytes through CD40-CD40 ligand signaling. Here we show that interruption of this signaling pathway in monocyte / macrophage exerts rapid anti-inflammatory effects in an Apoe-/- mouse model of atherosclerosis. For this purpose we developed an infusible recombinant high-density lipoprotein nanoparticle carrying small molecule inhibitor of the interaction of CD40s and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6. We show monocyte / macrophage specific targeting of our nanoimmunotherapy, which impairs their migratory capacity. Rapid induction of plaque inflammation by this therapy represents a novel strategy in the treatment of atherosclerosis, with high potential for clinical translation, as illustrated by the favorable toxicity profile in non-human primates.

COMMD10-deficiency promotes 'neutrophil like' differentiation fate of bone marrow Ly6Chi monocytes

Project description:Monocytes are circulating myeloid immune precursor cells that are generated in the bone marrow (BM). Upon their release into the circulation, monocytes are recruited to inflammatory sites, where they differentiate into monocyte-derived effector cells. In absence of overt inflammation, monocytes also extravasate into selected tissues, where they complement tissue-resident macrophage compartments. Recent studies have uncovered binary developmental trajectories of monocytes in the BM with Neutrophil-like (NeuMo) and dendritic cell (DC)-like (DCMo) monocytes differentiating downstream of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GMP) and macrophage-dendritic cell progenitors (MDP), respectively (Weinreb et al., 2020; Yanez et al., 2017). Yet, the molecular cues that dictate BM monocyte differentiation remain incompletely understood. The COMMD (copper metabolism MURR1 domain) family includes 10 evolutionarily conserved proteins. Functions of COMMD proteins are still being defined, but they seem to play non-redundant roles in regulating transcription and protein trafficking. Utilizing conditional COMMD10 knockout mice we uncovered a role for COMMD10 in limiting inflammasome activation in Ly6Chi monocytes during experimental sepsis and colitis (Mouhadeb et al., 2018), and in supporting phagolysosomal biogenesis and maturation in KCs and BM-derived macrophages infected with Staphylococcus aureus (Ben Shlomo et al., 2019). Hence, these studies mark COMMD10 as a candidate mediator of monocyte and macrophage fate and immune responses. Here we studied the effect of COMMD10-deficiency on Ly6Chi monocyte differentiation. We show that COMMD10-deficiency in steady state Ly6Chi monocytes promotes a differentiation bias towards NeuMo fate.

Macrophages heterogeneity in human atherosclerotic plaques

Project description:This study aims to characterize the transcriptional profile of Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor induced macrophages (GM-MÃ) and M-CSF macrophages (M-MÃ) and to investigate in situ a subset of genes and their products specific to each phenotype in human atherosclerosis plaques 18 RNG/MRC two-colour oligonucleotide microarrays (Le Brigand et al. 2006) were used to generate global mRNA expression profiles for GM-CSF-induced, M-CSF-induced, and peritoneal macrophages. The microarray experiments were conducted either as a common reference (peritoneal-like macrophages) design or using a direct design by hybridizing Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-induced human monocyte-derived macrophage (GM-MÃ) and CSF-induced human monocyte-derived macrophages(M-MÃ) on the same arrays
