Density dependent regulation of inflammatory responses in macrophages

ABSTRACT: Macrophage distribution density is tightly regulated within the body, yet the importance of macrophage crowding during in vitro culture is largely unstudied. Using a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived macrophage model of tissue resident macrophages, we demonstrate how increasing macrophage culture density changes their morphology and phenotype before and after inflammatory stimulation. In particular, density drives changes in macrophage inflammatory cytokine and chemokine secretion in both resting and activated states. This density regulated inflammatory state is also evident in blood monocyte derived-macrophages, the human monocytic THP-1 immortalized cell line, and iPSC-derived microglia. A potential cause we identify are anti-inflammatory products in the culture supernatant accumulating as density increases. However, the precise mechanism remains unknown. Our findings highlight cell plating density as an important but frequently overlooked consideration of in vitro macrophage research relevant to a variety of fields ranging from basic macrophage cell biology to disease studies.

Secretome analysis of polarised macrophages derived from induced pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Macrophages (Mɸ) are highly heterogenous and versatile innate immune cells involved in homeostatic and immune responses. Activated Mɸ can exist in two extreme phenotypes: pro-inflammatory (M1) and anti-inflammatory (M2) Mɸ and these phenotypes can be recapitulated in vitro by using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) plus IFNγ and IL-4, respectively. In the recent years, human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) derived-Mɸ have gained major attention since they are functionally similar to human monocyte derived-Mɸ and are receptive to genome editing. We performed quantitative proteomics of culture supernatants to identify soluble factors released from differentially polarised iPSC-derived Mɸ (iPSDM). Our analysis suggests that the cytokine/chemokine profiles released from polarised iPSDM are similar to monocyte-derived Mɸ.

Macrophages derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) serve as a high-fidelity cellular model for investigating HIV-1, dengue, and influenza viruses

Project description:Macrophages are important target cells for diverse viruses, and thus represent a valuable model system for studying virus biology. Isolation of primary human macrophages is done by culture of dissociated tissues or from differentiated blood monocytes, but these methods are both time consuming and result in low numbers of recovered macrophages. Here, we explore whether macrophages derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)—which proliferate indefinitely and potentially provide unlimited starting material— could serve as a faithful model system for studying virus biology. Human iPSC-derived monocytes were differentiated into macrophages and then infected with HIV-1, dengue virus, or influenza virus as model macrophage-tropic human viruses. We show that iPSC-derived macrophages supported the replication of these viruses with similar kinetics and phenotypes to human blood monocyte-derived macrophages. These iPSC-derived macrophages were virtually indistinguishable from human blood monocyte-derived macrophages based on surface marker expression analysis (flow cytometry), transcriptomics (RNA-seq), and chromatin accessibility profiling (ATAC-seq) approaches. iPSC lines were additionally generated from nonhuman primate (chimpanzee) fibroblasts. When challenged with dengue virus, human and nonhuman primate iPSC-derived macrophages show differential susceptibility to infection, thus providing a valuable resource for studying the species-tropism of viruses. Collectively, our results substantiate iPSC-derived macrophages as an alternative to blood monocyte-derived macrophages for the study of virus biology.

Gene expression data from human iPSC differentiated to macrophages and microglia, compared to human blood-derived monocytes and human primary fetal microglia

Project description:A human Pluripotent Stem Cell microglia model displays a neuronal-co-culture-specific expression profile and inflammatory response Walther Haenseler, Stephen N. Sansom, Julian Buchrieser, Sarah E. Newey, Craig S. Moore, Francesca J. Nicholls, Satyan Chintawar, Christian Schnell, Jack P. Antel, Nicholas D. Allen, M. Zameel Cader, Richard Wade-Martins, William S. James, Sally A. Cowley The aim of the experiment was to compare the gene expression profiles from human iPSC-derived embryonic macrophages (both precursors, mature, and cells cultured in 'microglia medium'), with iPSC-macrophages differentiated to microglia by co-culture with iPSC-derived cortical neurons. They were also compared to human blood-derived monocytes and to human primary fetal microglia.

SPRY4 as a Potential Mediator of the Anti-Tumoral Role of Macrophages in Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer Cells

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is the most lethal subtype of thyroid cancer, with high invasive and metastatic potential, not responding to conventional treatments. Its aggressiveness may be influenced by macrophages, which are abundant cells in the tumor microenvironment. To investigate the role of macrophages in ATC aggressiveness, indirect co-cultures were established between ATC cell lines and THP-1-derived macrophages. Macrophages significantly increased both the migration and invasion of T235 cells (p < 0.01; p < 0.01), contrasting with a decrease in C3948 (p < 0.001; p < 0.05), with mild effects in T238 migration (p < 0.01) and C643 invasion (p < 0.05). Flow cytometry showed upregulation of CD80 (pro-inflammatory, anti-tumoral) and downregulation of CD163 (anti-inflammatory, pro-tumoral) in macrophages from co-culture with T235 (p < 0.05) and C3948 (p < 0.05), respectively. Accordingly, we found an upregulation of secreted pro-inflammatory mediators (e.g., GM-CSF, IL-1α; p < 0.05) in C3948–macrophage co-cultures. Proteomic analysis showed the upregulation of SPRY4, an inhibitor of the MAPK pathway, in C3948 cells from co-culture. SPRY4 silencing promoted cancer cell invasion, reverting the reduced invasion of C3948 caused by macrophages. Our findings support that macrophages play a role in ATC cell aggressiveness. SPRY4 is a possible modulator of macrophage–ATC cell communication, with a tumor suppressor role relevant for therapeutic purposes.

Tumor cells modulate macrophage phenotype in a novel in vitro co-culture model of the non-small cell lung cancer tumor microenvironment

Project description:Introduction: Macrophage phenotype in the tumor microenvironment correlates with prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Immunosuppressive macrophages promote tumor progression, while pro-inflammatory macrophages may drive an anti-tumor immune response. How individual NSCLCs impact macrophage phenotype is a major knowledge gap. Methods: To systematically study the impact of lung cancer cells on macrophage phenotypes, we developed an in vitro co-culture model comprised of molecularly and clinically-annotated patient-derived NSCLC lines, human cancer-associated fibroblasts, and murine macrophages. Induced macrophage phenotype was studied through qRT-PCR and validated in vivo using NSCLC xenografts through quantitative immunohistochemistry and clinically with TCGA “matched” patient tumors. Results: 72 NSCLC cell lines were studied. The most frequent highly induced macrophage-related gene was Arginase-1, reflecting an immunosuppressive M2-like phenotype. This was independent of multiple clinicopathologic factors, which also did not impact M2:M1 ratios in matched TCGA samples. In vivo, tumors established from high Arginase-1-inducing lines (Arghi) had a significantly elevated density of Arg1+ macrophages. Matched TCGA clinical samples to Arghi NSCLC lines had a significantly higher ratio of M2:M1 macrophages. Conclusions: In our preclinical model, a large panel of patient-derived NSCLC lines most frequently induced high expression Arginase-1 in co-cultured mouse macrophages, independent of major clinicopathologic and oncogenotype-related factors. Arghi cluster-matched TCGA tumors contained a higher ratio of M2:M1 macrophages. Thus, this preclinical model reproducibly characterizes how individual NSCLCs modulate macrophage phenotype, correlates with macrophage polarization in clinical samples, and can serve as an accessible platform for further investigation of macrophage-specific therapeutic strategies.

Density dependent gene expression change in RAW264.7 cells stimulated without or with LPS.

Project description:Quorum sensing mechanisms that sense the density of macrophages at the site of inflammation, to initiate inflammation resolution, have recently been demonstrated as a major determinant of the inflammatory response. We observed a density-dependent increase in expression of the inflammatory tumor suppressor protein programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) in mouse macrophage cells. Conditioned medium from high density cells upregulated PDCD4 expression, revealing the presence of a secreted factor(s) acting as a macrophage quorum sensor. Secreted gelsolin (GSN) was identified as the quorum sensor and alteration of GSN levels changed PDCD4 expression. LPS induced the expression of microRNA miR-21 which downregulated GSN expression and reversed the high density phenotype. The high density phenotype was correlated with an anti-inflammatory gene expression program, which was counteracted by inflammatory stimulus. Together, our observations establish the miR-21-GSN-PDCD4 regulatory network as a central mediator of a macrophage quorum sensing mechanism for the control of inflammatory responses.

Our analyses suggest that iPSC Mɸ are promising tools to understand Mɸ biology since they exhibit similar polarisation profiles and functions as monocyte-derived Mɸ. We believe this comprehensive proteome data set will be a useful resource in the Mɸ field.
