Two distinct subsets are identified from the peritoneal myeloid mononuclear cells expressing both CD11c and CD115

ABSTRACT: The peritoneal cavity is home to various immune cells. Previous studies have investigated the heterogenous nature of peritoneal myeloid mononuclear cells. However, up to this date, there are no clear criteria to distinguish peritoneal macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). In the present study, we delineate the subsets of myeloid mononuclear cells in the mouse peritoneal cavity. Considering phenotypical, functional, and ontogenic features, peritoneal myeloid mononuclear cells are divided into 5 subsets: large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs), small peritoneal macrophages (SPMs), DCs, and 2 MHCII+CD11c+CD115+ subpopulations (i.e., MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- and MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+). Among them, 2 subsets of competent antigen presenting cells are demonstrated with distinct functional characteristics, one being DCs and the other being MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells. DCs are able to promote fully activated T cells and superior in expanding cytokine producing inflammatory T cells, whereas MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells generate partially activated T cells and possess a greater ability to induce regulatory T cells under TGF-β and retinoic acid conditions. While the development of DCs and MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells are responsive to the treatment of FLT3L and GM-CSF, the numbers of LPMs, SPMs, and MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+ cells are only influenced by the injection of GM-CSF. In addition, the analysis of transcriptomes reveals that the gene expression profile of MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+ cells share high similarity with that of SPMs. Collectively, our study identifies 2 distinct subpopulations of MHCII+CD11c+CD115+ cells, (i) MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells closely related to DCs and (ii) MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+ cells to SPMs.

Project description:microRNAs are assumed to fine-tune cellular mRNA expression levels predisposing them for the control of cell development and cell fates. However, despite increasing appreciation of the role of miRNAs in controlling myeloid cell functions and some evidence for their contribution in in vitro monocyte differentiation, the in vivo role of specific miRNAs in the development and homeostasis of myeloid cells remains to be investigated. Here we profiled the microRNA expression of 8 different myeloid cell population including myeloid precursors (MP), myeloid dendritic cell precursors (MDP), common dendritic cell precursors (CDP), plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDC) and Gr1+ monocytes from the bone marrow and three different spenic denritic cells (DCs): CD4+ DCs, CD8+ DCs and CD4-CD8- DCs. The source of the cells were female C57BL/6 animals in an age of 6 weeks. The FACS isolation was done on a pooled cell suspension from a minimum of 5 animals. C57BL/6 mice in an age of 6 weeks were purchased from Harlan. For bone marrow (BM) precursor isolation, ACK (0.15M NH4Cl, 0.1M KHCO3, 1mM EDTA in PBS) lyzed BM cells from femur and tibia were pooled from 15 mice and enriched by MACS with biotinylated CD135 (A2F10) followed by anti-biotin MACS beads (Miltenyi). The enriched fraction was further stained with Streptavidin-PerCP, CD117 (2B8), CD115 (AFS98) and lineage antibody cocktail (CD11b (M1/70), CD3 (145-2C11), CD4 (GK1.5), CD8M-NM-1 (53-6.7), Gr1 (RB6-8C5), Sca-1 (D7), B220 (RA3-6B2), Ter-119, CD11c (N418), NK1.1 (PK136)). Splenic dendritic cells were pre-enriched from 8 mice by CD11c MACS beads (Miltenyi) and further stained for CD8M-NM-1, CD4, CD11c and CD86 (PO3). BM plasmacytoid DCs were isolated from 5 mice, followed by Ficoll enrichment and stained for CD11c, CD317 (927) and Siglec H (eBio440c). BM monocytes were isolated from Ficoll enriched BM cells from 5 mice. Staining markers were: CD11b, Gr1 and CD115. All antibodies were purchased from BioLegend or eBioscience if not indicated otherwise. A FACSAria cytometer (Becton-Dickinson) was used for sorting and duplets were excluded by their FSC-H vs. FSC-W appearance.
