Single-cell transcriptomics highlights the proinflammatory contribution of C1q-high monocytes to Behçet’s disease

ABSTRACT: Behçet’s disease (BD) is a chronic vasculitis characterized by systemic immune aberrations. Here, we performed single-cell sequencing to profile peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and isolated monocytes from BD patients and healthy donors. We observed prominent expansion and transcriptional changes in monocytes in PBMCs from BD patients. Deciphering the monocyte heterogeneity revealed the accumulation of C1q-high (C1qhi) monocytes in BD. Pseudotime inference indicated that BD monocytes markedly shifted their differentiation toward inflammation-accompanied and C1qhi monocyte-ended trajectory. Further experiments showed that C1qhi monocytes enhanced phagocytosis and proinflammatory cytokine secretion, and multi-platform analyses revealed the significant clinical relevance of this subtype. Mechanistically, C1qhi monocytes were induced by activated IFN-γ signaling in BD patients, and were decreased by tofacitinib treatment. Our study illustrates BD immune landscape and the unrecognized contribution of C1qhi monocytes to BD hyperinflammation, showing their potential as therapeutic targets and clinical assessment indexes.

mRNA expression profiling of PBMCs from Behcet’s disease

Project description:Behçet’s disease (BD) is a chronic vasculitis characterized by systemic immune aberrations. However, a comprehensive understanding of the immune disturbances in BD and how they contribute to BD pathogenesis is lacking. Here, we performed single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing to profile peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and isolated monocytes from BD patients and healthy controls. This dataset is the bulk RNA sequencing part (next generation sequencing-based genome-wide transcriptional profiling), which contains the transcriptional profilings of freshly isolated PBMCs from19 samples (10 healthy controls and 9 BD patients).

Blood genomic expression profile for Behçet’s disease.

Project description:Behçet’s disease (BD) is a multisystemic immuno-inflammatory disorder characterized by a generalized vasculitis, particularly at the orogenital mucosa and eye. It is a complex disease with unclear pathogenesis. To better understand BD´s etiology, we performed genomic expression profiling of patients and controls. Gene expression profiling was performed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 15 patients and 14 sex- and age-matched controls using Affymetrix microarrays. The ages of the patients and controls do not match on a one-to-one basis, but they match very well on average. The average age at examination of cases and controls is 37y.

transcriptional profiling of neutrophils in Behcet's Disease (BD).

Project description:Behçet’s Disease (BD) is a chronic and systemic vasculitis with unknown etiology. Although BD is considered a condition linking both autoimmunity and autoinflammation, aberrant innate immunity has emerged in its significant pathogenetic role, among which neutrophils directly drive inflammation in BD. To investigate neutrophil aberrance in BD, we performed bulk RNA-sequencing on isolated peripheral neutrophils from 10 pairs of BD and sex- and age-matched healthy control (HCs).

DNA microarray analysis of PBMCs from Behçet’s disease (BD) patients

Project description:To examine if gene expression profiles of many Behçet’s disease (BD) patients are commonly abnormal compared to those of healthy volunteers, we performed a genome-wide complementary DNA microarray analysis using an Agilent Hu44K array; RNA samples were isolated from the PBMCs of 41 individual BD patients (32 females and 9 males) and 17 normal volunteers.

Genome-wide analysis of lupus immune complex stimulation of purified CD14+ monocytes and how this response is regulated by C1q

Project description:The goal of this study was to determine what genes are up- and down-regulated in response to lupus immune complexes in purified CD14+ monocyte stimulations. Our results have shown that novel genes are induced by immune complexes but the response is less robust when using purified monocytes versus total PBMCs Total RNA was isolated from CD14+ monocytes from 2 donors after 5 hours with the following conditions: 1) Unstimulated, 2) Lupus immune complex alone, 3) Lupus immune complex + C1q, 4) C1q alone

Schizophrenia monocytes

Project description:Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric disorder. Another study in BD has shown an aberrant pro-inflammatory status of monocytes/macrophages. Therefore, this study aimed at studying the monocyte compartment in schizophrenia, by transcription profiling of CD14+ monocytes in patients and controls.

Activation of the JAK/STAT pathway in Behcet’s Disease

Project description:Th1/Th17-type T-cell responses are upregulated in Behcet’s disease (BD). However, signaling pathways associated with this aberrant immune response are not clarified. Whole-genome microarray profiling was performed with human U133 (Plus 2.0) chips using mRNA of isolated CD14+ monocytes and CD4+ T-cells from PBMC in patients with BD (n=9) and healthy controls (HC) (n=9). Flow cytometric analysis of unstimulated (US) and stimulated (PHA) STAT3 and pSTAT3 expressions of PBMCs were also analysed (BD and HC, both n=26). JAK1 was observed to be upregulated in both CD14+ monocytes (1.94 fold) and CD4+ T-lymphocytes (1.40 fold) of BD patients. Using canonical pathway enrichment analysis, JAK/STAT signaling was identified as activated in both CD14+ monocytes (p=2.95E-06) and in CD4+ lymphocytes (p=8.13E-04) in BD. Interferon (p=1.02E-07) and IL-6 (p=8.91E-03) signaling pathways were also prominent in CD14+ monocytes. Basal unstimulated total STAT3 expression was significantly higher in BD (1.2 vs 3.45, p<0.05). The JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway is activated in BD, possibly through the activation of Th1/Th17-type cytokines such as IL-2, IFNγ, IL-6, IL-17 and IL-23.
