Project description:Most tissue-resident macrophage populations develop during embryogenesis, self-renew in the steady state, and can expand during type 2 immunity. Whether shared mechanisms regulate macrophage proliferation in homeostasis and disease is unclear. We found that the transcription factor Bhlhe40 was cell-intrinsically required in large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs) for self-renewal and maintenance, but was not required in other resident macrophages. Bhlhe40 was selectively necessary in LPMs for proliferation, but not polarization, in response to IL-4. During a helminth infection, Bhlhe40 was required for normal LPM cell cycling. Bhlhe40 repressed the expression of Maf and Mafb and directly promoted expression of cell cycle-related transcripts to enable proliferation of LPMs. Genomic sites bound by Bhlhe40 in LPMs included some co-bound by the macrophage lineage-determining factor PU.1 and others uniquely bound by Bhlhe40, including Maf and cell cycle-related loci. Our findings demonstrate a tissue-specific control mechanism regulating resident macrophage proliferation in homeostasis and type 2 immunity.

Project description:Little is known about the effects of high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity on resident colonic lamina propria (LP) macrophages (LPMs) function and metabolism. Here, we report that obesity and diabetes resulted in increased macrophage infiltration in the colon. These macrophages exhibited the residency phenotype CX3CR1hiMHCIIhi, and were CD4-TIM4-. During HFD, resident colonic LPM exhibited a lipid metabolism gene expression signature that overlapped that used to define lipid associated macrophages (LAMs). Via single cell RNA sequencing, we identified a sub-cluster of macrophages, increased in HFD, that were responsible for the LAM signature. Compared to other macrophages in the colon, these cells were characterized by elevated glycolysis, phagocytosis and efferocytosis signatures. CX3CR1hiMHCIIhi colonic resident LPMs had fewer lipid droplets (LD) and decreased triacylglycerol (TAG) content compared to equivalent cells in lean mice, and exhibited increased phagocytic capacity, suggesting that HFD induces adaptive responses in LPMs to limit bacterial translocation.

Project description:Local factors produced in the tissue microenvironment play essential roles in promoting the ontogeny and phenotype of tissue resident macrophages (TRM). In the peritoneal cavity, large peritoneal macrophages (LPM) are the dominant TRMs that functionally mediate type 2 immunity, facilitate tissue repair of the mesothelium, and protect against peritoneal fibrosis. It is established that retinoic acid derived from the omentum induces transcription factor Gata6 expression in LPMs, which in turn regulates gene expression of factors that define peritoneal macrophages. It is still unclear whether retinoic acid is the sole local factor that regulates Gata6 expression in LPMs. Mesothelial cells line the entire peritoneal cavity and produce a protective, non-adhesive barrier against injury, at least in part by recruiting immune cells with secreted cytokines, such as M-CSF. We hypothesized that secreted factors from peritoneal mesothelial cells are also responsible for regulating LPM development including both ontogeny and function. Due to their immediate proximity to the peritoneal cavity, we propose that mesothelial cells can produce and secrete proteins into the peritoneum to maintain Gata6 expression by LPMs. To identify secreted factors that are highly and specifically expressed in mesothelial cells, we harvested primary mesothelial cells from 10-week-old C57BL/6 mice using FACS selection (CD45- PDPN+ GPM6a+). Total RNA was isolated from these cells and subjected to RNA-seq analysis after depletion of ribosomal RNA.

Project description:Tissues in multicellular organisms are ‘serviced’ by resident macrophages, which perform both generic and tissue-specific functions. The latter relies on unique tissue-specific molecular programs induced by signals from the microenvironment and executed through a combinatorial action of tissue-specific and broadly expressed transcriptional regulators. Here, we identify the transcription factors Bhlhe40 and Bhlhe41 as novel regulators of alveolar macrophages (AMs) – a population that provides the first line of immune defense and executes homeostatic functions in lung alveoli. In the absence of these factors, AMs exhibited decreased proliferation that resulted in a severe disadvantage of knockout AMs in a competitive setting. Gene expression analyses revealed a broad cell-intrinsic footprint of Bhlhe40/Bhlhe41-deficiency manifested by a downregulation of AM signature genes and induction of signature genes of other macrophage lineages. Genome-wide characterization of Bhlhe40 DNA binding suggested that these transcription factors directly repress the expression of lineage-inappropriate genes in AMs. Taken together, these results identify Bhlhe40 and Bhlhe41 as key regulators of AM self-renewal and guardians of their identity.

Project description:Differentiated macrophages can self-renew in tissues and expand long-term in culture, but the gene regulatory mechanisms that accomplish self-renewal in the differentiated state have remained unknown. Here we show that in mice, the transcription factors MafB and c-Maf repress a macrophage-specific enhancer repertoire associated with a gene network controlling self-renewal. Single cell analysis revealed that, in vivo, proliferating resident macrophages can access this network by transient down-regulation of Maf transcription factors. The network also controls embryonic stem cell self-renewal but is associated with distinct embryonic stem cell-specific enhancers. This indicates that distinct lineage-specific enhancer platforms regulate a shared network of genes that control self-renewal potential in both stem and mature cells.

Project description:Rationale: Doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy (DiCM) is a significant cause of heart failure and mortality in cancer patients, in which macrophage-orchestrated inflammation serves as an essential pathogenic mechanism. However, the specific roles of tissue-resident and monocyte-derived macrophages in DiCM remain poorly understood. Objective: Uncovering the origins, phenotypes, and functions of proliferative cardiac resident macrophages and mechanistic insights into the self-maintenance of cardiac macrophage during DiCM progression. Methods and Results: Mice were administrated with doxorubicin to induce cardiomyopathy. Dynamic changes of resident and monocyte-derived macrophages were examined by lineage tracing, parabiosis, and bone marrow transplantation. We found that the monocyte-derived macrophages primarily exhibited a pro-inflammatory phenotype that dominated the whole DiCM pathological process and impaired cardiac function. In contrast, cardiac resident macrophages were vulnerable to doxorubicin insult. The survived resident macrophages exhibited enhanced proliferation and conferred a reparative role. Global or myeloid specifically ablation of class A1 scavenger receptor (SR-A1) inhibited proliferation of cardiac resident reparative macrophages and therefore exacerbated cardiomyopathy in DiCM mice. Importantly, the detrimental effect of macrophage SR-A1 deficiency was confirmed by transplantation of GFP+ wild type bone marrow. At the mechanistic level, we show that c-Myc, a key transcriptional factor for the SR-A1-P38-SIRT1 pathway, mediated the effect of SR-A1 in reparative macrophage proliferation in DiCM. Conclusions: The SR-A1-c-Myc axis may represent a promising target to treat DiCM through augmentation of cardiac resident reparative macrophage proliferation.

Project description:Tissue-resident Macrophages have long been appreciated as playing a fundamental role in the ontogeny and function of several organs. For example, osteoclasts are crucial for proper bone remodeling, microglia for synaptic pruning, and lung alveolar macrophages for clearance of surfactant. Perivascular macrophages have been described in many organs. Our analysis of murine perivascular macrophages in several tissues and organs led us to define a macrophage family, whose members share the expression of a number of surface molecules that are not typically considered macrophage markers, such as Lyve1, Folate Receptor 2 (Folr2), Enpep/CD249, and CD38, as well as other more typical macrophage markers such as CD206 and Tim4. This family of perivascular macrophages also occurs in humans. Importantly, this family of perivascular macrophages relies on the transcription factor c-MAF, encoded by the gene Maf, for its full function. Conditional deletion of the Maf gene in the Lyve1+Folr2+CD38+ macrophage family caused their ablation in the brain, without impact on the microglia, while in the adipose tissue the conditional deletion of the Maf gene in perivascular macrophages resulted in a profoundly altered macrophage gene expression, and brought about an increased vascular branching in this tissue. Mice with conditional Maf deletion were protected from metabolic syndrome when submitted to high fat diet (HFD). Our results show that c-MAF is the master regulator of a family of perivascular macrophages.

Project description:Homozygous disruption of c-Maf led to embryonic lethality and impaired erythroblastic island formation. c-Maf is expressed in the fetal liver macrophages. It suggests that macrophages are responsible for the lethality of c-Maf knock-out embryos. To search downstream genes of c-Maf, we surveyed genes associated with macrophage function by microarray analysis. keywords: c-Maf, macrophage, erythroblastic islands, WT (c-Maf WT) and c-Maf KO (c-Maf KO) fetal liver macrophages were sorted by a FACSAria cell sorter. Total RNAs from those macrophages were prepared using RNeasy Kit. Genes down-regulated in c-Maf KO macrophages were searched by GeneSpring software.

Project description:Background: Evidence has recently accumulated suggesting that mature hepatocytes have the unique capacity to autonomously decide their replication fate. The molecular mechanism by which hepatocytes switch from an essentially quiescent state to rapidly proliferation after liver injury is not fully understood. To provide molecular insights into the self-renewal of mature hepatocytes, we have applied an ex vivo liver slice culture system. Results: After liver injury, activation of p38 and Erk1/2 began in mature hepatocytes within 5 min. Erk1/2 was activated at the edge of the cut as well as on the surface of liver slices. The number of hepatocytes that contain activated Erk1/2 increased within 1 h and then decreased. Concomitantly, immediate early genes (IEGs), such as Jun, early gene response 1 (Egr1) and Myc were induced and Ki67 positive hepatocytes appeared 24 h after liver injury in the slices. In agreement with in vivo studies, transcriptome analysis using 2 h slice culture reveals that 63% of upregulated genes were downstream of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation which induces interleukin 6 (IL 6) or tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha pathways. Furthermore, circadian clock regulator, such as members of the basic helix-loop-helix family, Bhlhe40 and Bhlhe41, were highly upregulated for 4 h after injury. Although upon injury Jun or Egr1 were induced in liver slices from proliferation-defective liver, no circadian clock regulator genes were upregulated. Moreover, using an in vitro cell culture system we show that Bhlhe40 is required for the G0-G1 transition. Conclusion: Our data suggest that the circadian clock regulator, Bhlhe40, is involved in the G0-G1 transition. An ex vivo system using normal and proliferation defective KO liver is a useful tool for identification of genes that trigger cell proliferation shortly after liver injury. This method may also be applied for measurement of the liver regeneration potential of individual livers at the priming phase. In one dual-color microarray hybridization, mRNA expression changes after 2h ex vivo incubation of liver slices were examined.

Project description:We have performed a comprehensive transcriptional analysis of specific monocyte and macrophage (MM-CM-^X) subsets during an acute self-resolving inflammatory insult. Following initial induction of acute inflammation, tissue resident (Resident) MM-CM-^X are rapidly M-bM-^@M-^XclearedM-bM-^@M-^Y from the inflammatory foci, only becoming recoverable as inflammation resolves. Monocytes are recruited to the inflammatory lesion where they differentiate into MM-CM-^X. We term these monocyte-derived MM-CM-^X M-bM-^@M-^Xinflammation-associatedM-bM-^@M-^Y to distinguish them from Resident MM-CM-^X which are present throughout the inflammatory response and can renew during the resolution of inflammation by proliferation. Comparative analysis of the Mo and MM-CM-^X populations (both M-bM-^@M-^Xinflammation-associatedM-bM-^@M-^Y and Resident MM-CM-^X) identifies select genes expressed in subsets of M-bM-^@M-^Xinflammation-associatedM-bM-^@M-^Y and Resident MM-CM-^X that play important roles in the resolution of inflammation and/or for immunity, including molecules involved in antigen presentation, cell cycle and others associated with M-bM-^@M-^XimmaturityM-bM-^@M-^Y and MM-CM-^X activation. We purified monocyte and macrophage populations from the peritoneal cavity of C57BL/6 mice 4, 18, 72 and 168 hours after the induction of inflammation with intraperitoneal administration of zymosan (2x10^7 particles). We also purified tissue resident macrophages and Ly-6B+ bone marrow monocytes from naive mice as reference populations.
