RNA-seq of equine alveolar macrophages and blood monocyte-derived macrophages exposed to an inflammatory stimulus

ABSTRACT: The obejective was to investigate how equine alveolar macrophages (AMs) and monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) response to a stimuli which contained fungal spores, lipopolysaccharide, and silica microsphere (FLS), and whether different responses existed between AMs and MDMs. RNA-seq was used to profile gene expression of AMs and MDMs from six clinically healthy horses were incubated with and without FLS for six hours.

Project description:Rheumatoid synoviocytes, which consist of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) and synovial macrophages (SM), are crucial for the progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Particularly, FLS of RA patients (RA-FLS) exhibit invasive characteristics reminiscent of cancer cells, destroying cartilage and bone, although it remains unresolved how RA-FLS exhibit invasive phenotype. RA-FLS and SM originate differently from mesenchymal and myeloid cells, respectively, but share many pathologic functions. However, the molecular signatures and biological networks representing the distinct and shared features of the two cell types are unknown. Presently, we performed global transcriptome profiling of FLS and SM obtained from RA and osteoarthritis patients. By comparing the transcriptomes, we identified distinct molecular signatures and cellular processes defining invasiveness of RA-FLS and pro-inflammatory properties of RA synovial macrophages (RA-SM), respectively. Interestingly, under interleukin1β-stimulated condition, RA-FLS newly acquired pro-inflammatory signature mimicking RA-SM without losing invasive properties. We next reconstructed a network model that delineates the shared, RA-FLS-dominant (invasive), and RA-SM-dominant (inflammatory) processes. From the network model, we selected 13 genes, including POSTN and TWIST1, as novel regulator candidates responsible for FLS invasiveness. Of note, POSTN and TWIST1 expressions were elevated in independent RA-FLS and were further instigated by interleukin1β. In vitro functional assays demonstrated the requirement of POSTN and TWIST1 for migration and invasion of RA-FLS stimulated with interleukin1β. Taken together, our systems approach to rheumatoid synovitis provides a basis for identifying novel regulators responsible for pathological features of RA-FLS and RA-SM, demonstrating how a certain type of cells acquires functional redundancy under chronic inflammatory conditions. To identify molecular signatures of FLS and MLS in RA joints, we isolated FLS from synovial tissues of RA and osteoarthritis (OA) patients, obtained synovial macrophages from synovial fluid of RA patients, and differentiated control macrophages from peripheral blood of healthy subjects. Also, we stimulated FLS with IL1β, and then analyzed gene expression profiles of both IL1β-stimulated RA-FLS and OA-FLS

Project description:[Background] TNFa-induced adipose-related protein (TIARP) is a six-transmembrane protein that is expressed on macrophages, neutrophils and synoviocytes. We have recently reported that TIARP deficient mice (TIARP-/-) spontaneously developed arthritis, and had the high susceptibility to collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) with enhanced interleukin (IL)-6 production. However, the effect of TIARP to neutrophils and fibroblast-like syonoviocytes (FLS) has not been clearly elucidated. [Methods] We analyzed the roles of TIARP in K/BxN serum transfer model using TIARP-/- mice. We characterized the differences of neutrophils between WT and TIARP-/- mice by DNA microarray. Transmigration assays of TIARP-/- neutrophils were performed in vitro and in vivo. FLS were cultured with TNF? and the production of CXCL2 (a specific ligand of CXCR1 and CXCR2) and IL-6 were measured by ELISA. Moreover, TIARP-/- mice transferred with K/BxN serum were treated with anti-IL-6R antibodies. [Results] Arthritis in TIARP-/- mice transferred with K/BxN serum was significantly exacerbated. We identified overexpression of CXCR1 and CXCR2 in TIARP-/- neutrophils by DNA microarray. Neutrophils from TIARP-/- mice showed strong migration activity. The enhancement of chomotactic activity of TIARP-/- neutrophil was greatly facilitated by CXCL2 in vitro and in vivo. In addition, TIARP-/-FLS has enhanced the production of CXCL2 and IL-6 and the cell proliferation in the presence of TNFa, and the blockade of IL-6R significantly attenuated arthritis in vivo. [Conclusion] Our findings indicate that TIARP might down-regulate the production of CXCL2 and IL-6 in FLS, and the expression of chemokine receptors (CXCR1 and CXCR2) in neutrophils, resulting in the protective ability of neutrophils migration into arthritic joints. Mice were treated with thiogycollate medium intraperitoneally. After 3 days, peritoneal macrophages were isolated from three WT or TIARP-deficient mice, and these cells were stimulated by TNF? for 24 hours. Ly6G+ Neutrophils were isolated from splenocytes by MACS.
