Project description:Our group has proposed that low-density granulocytes (LDGs) play an important role in lupus pathogenesis, as they can damage endothelial cells and synthesize increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines and type I interferons. LDGs have a heightened capacity to synthesize neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). NETs from LDGs display increased levels of bactericidal and immunostimulatory proteins, such as the cathelicidin LL37 and externalize double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Lupus netting LDGs have increased capacity to kill endothelial cells and expose IL-17. Through NETosis, lupus neutrophils stimulate plasmacytoid DCs to synthesize IFN-?. Our results further expand the potential pathogenic role of aberrant lupus neutrophils through a NET-mediated effect. We used microarrays to analyze the gene expression of neutrophils in healthy and lupus patients, and of low-density granulocytes in lupus patients. Human neutrophils and LDGs were isolated from PBMCs. RNA from healthy neutrophils, lupus neutrophils and lupus LDGs was extracted and processed for hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Neutrophil abscess formation is critical in innate immunity against many pathogens. Here, the mechanism of neutrophil abscess formation was investigated using a mouse model of Staphylococcus aureus cutaneous infection. Gene expression analysis of S. aureus-infected skin revealed that induction of neutrophil recruitment genes was largely dependent upon IL-1beta/IL-1R activation. Unexpectedly, using IL 1beta reporter mice, neutrophils were identified as the primary source of IL-1beta at the site of infection. Furthermore, IL-1beta-producing neutrophils were necessary and sufficient for abscess formation and bacterial clearance. S. aureus-induced IL 1beta production by neutrophils required TLR2, NOD2, FPRs and the ASC/NLRP3 inflammasome. Taken together, IL-1beta and neutrophil abscess formation during an infection are functionally, spatially and temporally linked as a consequence of direct IL-1beta production by neutrophils. Lesional skin biopsies obtained from C57BL/6J WT mice or IL-1R-deficient mice at 4 hours post-infection with Staphylococcus aureus. Uninfected skin biopsies were also collected from WT and IL-1R-deficient mice.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Neutrophils are phagocytic innate immune cells that play essential roles in host defence, but are also implicated in inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) where they contribute to systemic inflammation and joint damage. Transcriptomic analysis of neutrophils has revealed significant changes in gene expression in neutrophils activated in vitro by cytokines and in vivo during inflammation in RA. However, there are no reports on the global metabolomic changes that occur during neutrophil activation. The aim of this study was to establish protocols for the study changes in the metabolome of human neutrophils using 1H NMR spectroscopy.

Project description:This study used proteomic, biomechanical, and functional analyses to further define neutrophil heterogeneity in the context of SLE. Mass spectrometry proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses were performed in healthy control normal density neutrophils (NDNs), SLE NDNs and in autologous SLE LDGs. Proteomic and phosphoproteomic differences were detected when comparing control to SLE neutrophils and when comparing SLE NDNs to SLE LDGs.

Project description:Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) is a chronic childhood arthropathy with features of autoinflammation. Early inflammatory SJIA is associated with expansion and activation of neutrophils with a sepsis-like phenotype, but neutrophil phenotypes present in longstanding and clinically inactive disease (CID) are unknown. The objective of this study was to examine activated neutrophil subsets, S100 alarmin release, and gene expression signatures in children with a spectrum of SJIA disease activity. Methods: Highly-purified neutrophils were isolated using a two-step procedure of density-gradient centrifugation followed by magnetic-bead based negative selection prior to flow cytometry or cell culture to quantify S100 protein release. Whole transcriptome gene expression profiles were compared in neutrophils from children with both active SJIA and CID. Results: Patients with SJIA and active systemic features demonstrated a higher number of CD16+CD62Llo neutrophil population compared to controls. This neutrophil subset was not seen in patients with CID or patients with active arthritis not exhibiting systemic features. Using imaging flow cytometry, CD16+CD62Llo neutrophils from patients with active SJIA and features of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) had increased nuclear hypersegmentation compared to CD16+CD62L+ neutrophils. Serum levels of S100A8/A9 and S100A12 were strongly correlated with peripheral blood neutrophil counts. Neutrophils from active SJIA patients did not show enhanced resting S100 protein release; however, regardless of disease activity, neutrophils from SJIA patients did show enhanced S100A8/A9 release upon PMA stimulation compared to control neutrophils. Furthermore, whole transcriptome analysis of highly purified neutrophils from children with active SJIA identified 214 differentially expressed genes compared to neutrophils from healthy controls. The most significantly upregulated gene pathway was Immune System Process, including AIM2, IL18RAP, and NLRC4. Interestingly, this gene set showed intermediate levels of expression in neutrophils from patients with long-standing CID yet persistent serum IL-18 elevation. Indeed, all patient samples regardless of disease activity demonstrated elevated inflammatory gene expression, including inflammasome components and S100A8. Conclusion: We identify features of neutrophil activation in SJIA patients with active disease and CID, including a proinflammatory gene expression signature, reflecting persistent innate immune activation. Taken together, these studies expand understanding of neutrophil function in chronic autoinflammatory disorders such as SJIA.

Project description:During systemic inflammation, different neutrophil subsets are mobilized to the blood circulation. These neutrophil subsets can be distinguished from normal circulating neutrophils (CD16bright/CD62Lbright) based on either an immature CD16dim/CD62Lbright or a CD16bright/CD62Ldim phenotype. Interestingly, the latter neutrophil subset is known to suppress lymphocyte proliferation ex vivo, but the underlying mechanism is largely unknown. We performed transcriptome analysis on the different neutrophil subsets to identify changes that are relevant for their functions. Neutrophil subsets were isolated by FACS sorting from the blood of healthy volunteers who were administered a single dose of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The transcriptome was determined by microarray. The mobilized neutrophil subsets were characterized by specific transcriptome profiles reflecting their phase in neutrophil lifespan. Interestingly, the CD16bright/CD62Ldim suppressive neutrophils showed an interferon-induced transcriptome profile. This was confirmed by stimulation of peripheral neutrophils with IFNgamma. These cells acquired the capacity to suppress lymphocyte proliferation through the expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1). These data demonstrate that the suppressive phenotype of the neutrophil subset is induced by IFNgamma. Specific stimulation of neutrophils might have a pivotal role in regulating lymphocyte-mediated inflammation and autoimmune disease. After LPS infusion, blood was taken at t=0 and t=4 hours. Neutrophils were FACS sorted based on CD16 and CD62L expression. Gene expression of neutrophil subsets was assessed relative to t=0 as control.

Project description:Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are chromatin-derived extracellular structures that are expelled from neutrophils in response to infectious or inflammatory stimuli. NET DNA structures are decorated with proteins including histones, myeloperoxidase and neutrophil elastase. NETs are implicated in the development of auto-immunity in diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) through the externalisation of intracellular neoepitopes e.g. dsDNA and nuclear proteins in SLE and citrullinated peptides in RA. The aim of this work was to use quantitative proteomics to identify and measure NET proteins produced by neutrophils from healthy individuals, and from patients with RA and SLE.
