Transcriptional profiling of young and old mouse macrophages interacting with nanoparticles [Bulk RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: The mononuclear phagocytic system is integral to the clearance of nanotherapeutics. However, the precise mechanisms involved in the phagocytic clearance of nanotherapeutics, and how age-associated changes in innate immune cells affect this clearance, are poorly understood. We found that the ability of professional phagocytes to take up nanoparticles diminishes with age. Bulk RNA sequencing of bone marrow derived macrophages and single cell RNA sequencing of liver macrophages derived from young and old mice was carried out to investigate the gene expression changes that may be assiciated with the changed ability of macrophages to uptake nanoparticles.

Transcriptional profiling of young and old mouse macrophages interacting with nanoparticles

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.Nanomedicines have been approved to treat multiple human diseases. However, clinical adoption of nanoformulated agents is often hindered by concerns about hepatic uptake and clearance, a process that is not fully understood. Here we show that the antitumour efficacy of cancer nanomedicine exhibits an age-associated disparity. Tumour delivery and treatment outcomes are superior in old versus young mice, probably due to an age-related decline in the ability of hepatic phagocytes to take up and remove nanoparticles. Transcriptomic- and protein-level analysis at the single-cell and bulk levels reveals an age-associated decrease in the numbers of hepatic macrophages that express the scavenger receptor MARCO in mice, non-human primates and humans. Therapeutic blockade of MARCO is shown to decrease the phagocytic uptake of nanoparticles and improve the antitumour effect of clinically approved cancer nanotherapeutics in young but not aged mice. Together, these results reveal an age-associated disparity in the phagocytic clearance of nanotherapeutics that affects their antitumour response, thus providing a strong rationale for an age-appropriate approach to cancer nanomedicine.

Stem cells tightly regulate dead cell clearance to maintain tissue fitness

Project description:Macrophages and dendritic cells have long been appreciated for their ability to migrate to and engulf dying cells and debris, including some of the billions of cells that are naturally eliminated from our body daily. However, a substantial amount of these dying cells are cleared by local tissue cells, so-called ‘non-professional phagocytes’, critical to preserve organismal fitness. How non-professional phagocytes are able to sense and digest nearby apoptotic corpses while still performing their normal tissue functions is unclear. Here, we explore the molecular mechanisms underlying this balancing act. Exploiting the cyclical bouts of tissue regeneration and degeneration during the hair cycle, we show that stem cells can transiently become non-professional phagocytes when confronted with dying cells. Adoption of this phagocytic state requires not only local lipids produced by apoptotic corpses, which are necessary for RXRα activation, but also tissue-specific retinoids able to activate RARg. The dual factor dependency enables tight regulation of the genes requisite to activate phagocytic apoptotic clearance. The tunable phagocytic program we describe here offers an attractive mechanism to offset phagocytic duties against the primary stem cell function of replenishing differentiated cells to preserve tissue integrity during homeostasis. Our findings have broad implications for other non-motile stem or progenitor cells which experience cell death in an immune-privileged niche.

Macrophages redirect phagocytosis by non-professional phagocytes and influence inflammation

Project description:Professional phagocytes (such as macrophages) and non-professional phagocytes (such as epithelial cells) clear billions of apoptotic cells and particles on a daily basis. Since these phagocytes reside in proximity in most tissues, whether cross-communication exists between them during cell clearance, and how this might impact inflammation are not known. Here, we show that macrophages, via the release of a soluble growth factor and microvesicles, redirect the type of particles engulfed by non-professional phagocytes and influence their inflammatory response. During apoptotic cell engulfment or in response to inflammation-associated cytokines, macrophages released insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). The binding of IGF-1 to its receptor on non-professional phagocytes redirected their phagocytosis, such that uptake of larger apoptotic cells was dampened while engulfment of microvesicles was enhanced. Macrophages were refractory to this IGF-1 mediated engulfment modulation. Macrophages also released microvesicles, whose uptake by epithelial cells, enhanced by IGF-1, led to decreased inflammatory responses by epithelial cells. Consistent with these observations, deletion of IGF-1 receptor in airway epithelial cells led to exacerbated lung inflammation after allergen exposure. These genetic and functional studies reveal a novel IGF-1 and microvesicle-dependent communication between macrophages and epithelial cells that can critically influence the magnitude of tissue inflammation in vivo.

Expression data from intestinal dendritic cells and macrophages of VDTR mice at 4 hours post diphtheria toxin administration

Project description:Recognition and removal of apoptotic cells by professional phagocytes, including dendritic cells and macrophages, preserve self-tolerance and prevent chronic inflammation and autoimmune pathologies. However the diverse array of phagocytes residing within different tissues combined with the necessarily prompt nature of apoptotic cell clearance has made it difficult to study this process in situ. Thus, the full spectrum of functions executed by tissue resident phagocytes in response to homeostatic apoptosis remains unclear. We used microarrays to characterize the transcriptome within murine intestinal dendritic cells and macrophages both before and after in situ phagocytosis of apoptotic intestinal epithelial cells.

Lung macrophages utilize unique cathepsin K-dependent phagosomal machinery to degrade intracellular collagen

Project description:Resident tissue macrophages (RTMs) are organ-specialized phagocytes responsible for the maintenance and protection of residing tissue. It is well established that tissue diversity is reflected by the heterogeneity of RTMs origin and phenotype. However, much less is known about tissue-specific phagocytic macrophage functions. Here, using quantitative proteomics approach, we identify cathepsins as key determinants of phagosome maturation in primary peritoneal, lung and brain resident macrophages. The data further uncover cathepsin K (CtsK) as a molecular marker for lung phagosomes required for intracellular protein and collagen degradation. Pharmacological blockade of CtsK activity diminished phagosomal proteolysis and collagenolysis in lung resident macrophages. Furthermore, pro-fibrotic TGF-β negatively regulated CtsK-mediated phagosomal collagen degradation independently from classical endocytic proteolytic pathways. In humans, phagosomal CtsK activity was reduced in lung COPD macrophages and lung macrophages exposed to cigarette smoke extract. Taken together, this study provides a comprehensive map of how peritoneal, lung and brain tissue environment shapes phagosomal composition of resident macrophages, revealing CtsK as a key molecular determinant of lung phagosomes contributing to phagocytic collagen clearance in lungs.

The sigma factor E of Mycobacterium tuberculosis modulates the inflammatory response of human THP1 cells

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is well adapted to survive in macrophages and usually subverts the bactericidal mechanisms of these professional phagocytes. The adaptation of Mtb to the intracellular life depends on its ability to regulate the expression of its genes. Among the most important bacterial transcription activators are the sigma factors that bind to the RNA polymerase and give it promotor specificity. Sigma factor E (SigE) controls the expression of genes that are essential for Mtb virulence. Analysis of the macrophage transcriptional response indicated that proteins encoded by the sigE regulon are involved in the modulation of the macrophage inflammatory response. We compared the global gene expression of THP1 macrophages infected with H37Rv and SigE to the gene expression profile of uninfected macrophages.

The longer the worse: a combined proteomic and targeted study of the long-term versus short-term effects of silver nanoparticles on macrophages

Project description:Despite considerable research effort devoted to the study of the effects of silver nanoparticles on mammalian cells in recent years, data on the potential long terms effects of this nanomaterial remain scarce, and centered on epithelial cells. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of silver nanoparticles on macrophages. To this end, RAW 264.7 murine macrophages were exposed to either 1 µg/ml silver nanoparticles for 20 days, i.e. a chronic exposure scheme, or to 20 µg/ml silver nanoparticles for 24 hours, i.e. an acute exposure scheme. A proteomic study was then conducted to study and compare the cellular responses to both exposure schemes. They proved to be essentially different, and stronger for the chronic exposure scheme. Targeted validation studies showed effects of chronic exposure to silver nanoparticles on detoxifying enzymes such as biliverdin reductase B, which was increased, and on central metabolism enzymes such as triose phosphate isomerase, which activity decreased under chronic exposure to silver nanoparticles. Chronic exposure to silver nanoparticles also induced a decrease of reduced glutathione content, a decreased phagocytic activity and reduced macrophages responses to lipopolysaccharide, as exemplified by nitric oxide and interleukin 6 production. Overall, chronic exposure to silver nanoparticles induced stronger effects than acute exposure on macrophages in the metabolic (glutathione level, mitochondrial potential) and functional (phagocytosis, cytokine production) parameters tested.
