Early fate defines microglia and non-parenchymal brain macrophage development

ABSTRACT: Central nervous system (CNS) macrophages comprise parenchymal microglia and border-associated macrophages (BAMs) residing in the meninges, the choroid plexus and the perivascular spaces. With the exception of choroid plexus macrophages, most CNS macrophages emerge during primitive hematopoiesis in the extra-embryonic yolk sac. What remains unknown however, is whether microglia and BAMs share a developmental program or arise from separate predefined lineages. Here, we identified two phenotypically, transcriptionally and locally distinct brain macrophage populations throughout development, giving rise to microglia and BAMs. Two independent macrophage populations were already present in the yolk sac prior to their seeding of the brain. Using fate-mapping system, we demonstrate that in contrast to microglia, the pool of embryonic BAMs in the choroid plexus and the meninges was gradually replaced by precursors emerging later in embryogenesis. The development of microglia was dependent on TGF-β whereas the genesis and maturation of BAMs occurred independently of this cytokine. Collectively, our data show that developing parenchymal and non-parenchymal brain macrophages are separate entities in terms of ontogeny, gene expression signatures and requirement for TGF-β.

A single-cell atlas of mouse brain macrophages reveals unique transcriptional identities shaped by ontogeny and tissue environment. [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:While the roles of parenchymal microglia in brain homeostasis and disease are fairly clear, other brain-resident myeloid cells remain less understood. By dissecting border regions and combining single-cell RNA sequencing with high-dimensional cytometry, bulk RNA-sequencing, fate-mapping and microscopy, we reveal the diversity of non-parenchymal brain macrophages. Border-associated macrophages (BAMs) residing in the dura mater, subdural meninges and choroid plexus consisted of distinct subsets with tissue-specific transcriptional signatures, and their cellular composition changed during postnatal development. BAMs exhibited a mixed ontogeny and subsets displayed distinct self-renewal capacities upon depletion and repopulation. Single-cell and fate-mapping analysis both suggested there is a unique microglial subset residing on the apical surface of the choroid plexus epithelium. Finally, gene network analysis and conditional deletion revealed IRF8 as a master regulator that drives the maturation and diversity of brain macrophages. Our results provide a framework for understanding host-macrophage interactions in the healthy and diseased brain.

Engrafted parenchymal brain macrophages differ from microglia in transcriptome, chromatin landscape and response to challenge (ATAC-Seq)

Project description:Microglia are yolk sac-derived macrophages residing in the parenchyma of brain and spinal cord, where they interact with neurons and other glial cells by constantly probing their surroundings with dynamic extensions. After different conditioning paradigms and bone marrow (BM) or hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, graft-derived cells seed the brain and persistently contribute to the parenchymal brain macrophage compartment. Here we establish that graft-derived macrophages acquire, over time, microglia characteristics, including ramified morphology, longevity, radio-resistance and clonal expansion. However, even after prolonged CNS residence, transcriptomes and chromatin accessibility landscapes of engrafted, BM-derived macrophages remain distinct from yolk sac-derived host microglia. Furthermore, engrafted BM-derived cells display discrete responses to peripheral endotoxin challenge, as compared to host microglia. In human HSC transplant recipients, engrafted cells also remain distinct from host microglia, extending our finding to clinical settings. Collectively, our data emphasize the molecular and functional heterogeneity of parenchymal brain macrophages and highlight potential clinical implications for HSC gene therapies aimed to ameliorate lysosomal storage disorders, microgliopathies or general monogenic immuno-deficiencies.

Comparison of the Global Gene Expression of Choroid Plexus and Meninges and Associated Vasculature under Control Conditions and after Pronounced Hyperthermia or Amphetamine Toxicity

Project description:These tissue were harvested to complement and extend the studies that generated GSE23093. They served 3 purposes; 1) identify genes important to choroid plexus function and compare them with those important for meninges and associated vasculature (MAV) function, 2) determine genes in the choroid plexus and sensitivity hyperthermia and amphetamine toxicity, 3) identify the important gene expression changes related to the immune system in MAV, choroid plexus and trunk' blood Gene mRNA expression patterns in choroid plexus and trunk blood were determined under control conditions as well as after (3 hr and 1day) exposure to either environmentally-induced hyperthermia or neurotoxic doses of amphetamine. This data was analyzed and compared to data from meninges and associated vasculature previously deposited in GEO. The data gathered under control conditions was used to further understand how the choroid plexus and meninges and associated vasculature might function to generate and regulate the cerebrospinal fluid. The expression patterns in the choroid plexus after environmentally-induced hyperthermia or neurotoxic doses of amphetamine was determine its damage and protective responses. The expression patterns after environmentally-induced hyperthermia or neurotoxic doses of amphetamine were compared among choroid plexus, meninges and associated vasculature and blood were analyzed to determine immune system responses.

Perivascular macrophages proliferate in the CNS, but also contributed by bone-marrow precursors in response to cerebral ischemia

Project description:Immune response following CNS disease and injury comprises three different compartments, parenchymal, perivascular and blood involving specialized immune cells. Microglia are the major immune cell residing in the CNS parenchymal compartment but together with other macrophages which are residing in the non-parenchymal structures such as perivascular spaces, leptomeninges and choroid plexus constitute the total macrophage population of the CNS. While the homeostatic functions of these specialized macrophages in not very well understood, evidence shows that these macrophages at the blood-brain interface might involve immune-surveillance and establish a gate way for the recruitment of peripheral immune cells in to the CNS in response to the pathological stimuli. In humans and rats these macrophages identified exclusively by the high levels of scavenger receptor CD163

Fetal toll-like receptor 3 signalling contributes to the induction of autism-like behaviors in a mouse model of maternal immune activation

Project description:A mouse model of maternal immune activation (MIA) is commonly used to study neurodevelopmental disorders. Gene expression analysis has suggested that fetal brain macrophages may be activated by MIA, but it is unclear whether these transcriptional changes connect to behavioral phenotypes in offspring. Here, we have shown that the induction of autism spectrum disorder (ASD)-like behavioral phenotypes by MIA in male offspring is dependent upon fetal activation of the toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) signaling molecule TRIF. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified a cluster of border-associated macrophages (BAMs) that was significantly enriched in wild-type fetal brains following TLR3-MIA but not diminished in Trif -/- fetal brains. Moreover, after TLR3-MIA, the number of fetal BAMs in the choroid plexus, but not in the meninges, was increased, and these cells were characterized by increased S100a8/9 expression. Finally, we proposed that activation of fetal TLR3-TRIF signaling was induced by transplacental viral infection. Overall, our data suggest that fetal TLR3 signaling contributes to MIA-induced ASD-like behavioral phenotypes in mice.

Gene expression profiles obtained from laser-microdissected human choroid plexus papilloma cells

Project description:Gene expression profiles generated from human tumor cells laser-microdissected from surgical samples of seven choroid plexus papillomas (Grade I WHO) as eight samples of epithelial cells lasermicrodissected from normal choroid plexus obtained at autopsy. Choroid plexus tumors are rare pediatric brain tumors derrived from the choroid plexus epithelium. Gene expression profiles of lasermicrodissected tumor cells from 7 individual choroid plexus tumor samples obtained at surgery were compared to gene expression profiles from non-neoplastic choroid plexus epithelial cells lasermicrodissected from normal non-neoplastic choroid plexus obtained at autopsy (Am J Surg Pathol. 2006 Jan;30(1):66-74.) in order to identfy genes differentially expressed in choroid plexus tumor cells.
