Project description:Neutrophil homeostasis is maintained, in part, by the regulated release of neutrophils from the bone marrow. Constitutive expression of the chemokine CXCL12 by bone marrow stromal cells provides a key retention signal for neutrophils in the bone marrow through activation of its receptor CXCR4. Herein, we show that the ELR chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL2 are constitutively expressed by bone marrow endothelial cells and osteoblasts, and CXCL2 expression is induced in endothelial cells during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-induced neutrophil mobilization. Neutrophils lacking CXCR2, the receptor for CXCL1 and CXCL2, are preferentially retained in the bone marrow, reproducing a myelokathexis phenotype. Transient disruption of CXCR4 failed to mobilize CXCR2 neutrophils. However, doubly deficient neutrophils (CXCR2-/- CXCR4-/-) displayed constitutive mobilization, showing that CXCR4 plays a dominant role. Collectively, these data suggest that CXCR2 signaling is a second chemokine axis that interacts antagonistically with CXCR4 to regulate neutrophil release from the bone marrow. We used gene expression microarrays to determine the changes in osteoblasts and bone marrow endothelial cells after G-CSF treatment. 3 untreated and G-CSF-treated osteoblast samples and 4 untreated and G-CSF-treated endothelial samples.

Project description:Acute Lung Injury (ALI) can cause Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), a lethal condition with limited treatment options and currently a common global cause of death due to COVID-19-induced ALI. ARDS secondary to Transfusion-Related Acute Lung Injury (TRALI) has been recapitulated pre-clinically by anti-MHC-I antibody administration to LPS-primed mice. In this model, we demonstrated that inhibitors of PTP1B, a protein tyrosine phosphatase that regulates signaling pathways of fundamental importance to homeostasis and inflammation, prevented lung injury and increased survival. Treatment with PTP1B inhibitors attenuated the aberrant neutrophil function that drives ALI, and was associated with release of myeloperoxidase, suppression of Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) formation, and inhibition of neutrophil migration. Mechanistically, reduced signaling through the CXCR4 chemokine receptor, particularly to the activation of mTOR, was essential for these effects, linking PTP1B in hibition to promoting an aged neutrophil phenotype. Considering dysregulated activation of neutrophils is implicated in sepsis and can cause collateral tissue damage, we demonstrated also that PTP1B inhibitors improved survival and ameliorated lung injury in the LPS-induced sepsis model. Our data highlight PTP1B inhibition for prevention of TRALI and ARDS from multiple etiologies.

Project description:Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contribute to inflammatory pathogenesis, especially in infectious and cardiovascular diseases. H2 gas acts as an antioxidant and has been clinically and experimentally proven to ameliorate inflammation. Therefore, we investigated whether H2 gas could inhibit NET formation associated with excessive neutrophil activation. Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated human neutrophils exposed to H2 exhibited reduced citrullination of histones, membrane disruption by chromatin complexes, and release of NET components over controls. Mechanistically, H2 suppressed the phosphorylation of Ser-139 residue in H2AX, a marker of DNA damage, thereby reducing the expression of CXC-chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) in PMA-stimulated neutrophils. Along with the upregulation of CXCR4, the intracellular content of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and the production of MPO-derived hypochlorous acid (HOCl) was increased; however, these effects were markedly suppressed in H2-exposed cultures. Thus, H2 neutralized HOCl produced by the oxidative burst, inhibited DNA damage, and subsequently inhibited NET formation. We further confirmed that inhalation of H2 inhibited the formation and release of NET components in the blood and bronchoalveolar lavage of a lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis model in mice and aged minipigs. Therefore, H2 therapy has the potential to be a new therapeutic agent for inflammatory diseases involving NETs associated with excessive neutrophil activation.

Project description:Polymorphonuclear cells (neutrophils) play an important role in the systemic inflammatory response syndrome and the development of sepsis. These cells are essential for the defense against microorganisms, but may also cause tissue damage. Therefore, neutrophil numbers and activity are considered to be tightly regulated. Previous studies have investigated gene transcription during experimental endotoxemia in whole blood and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. However, the gene transcription response of the circulating pool of neutrophils to systemic inflammatory stimulation in vivo is currently unclear. We examined neutrophil gene transcription kinetics in healthy human subjects (n=4) administered a single dose of endotoxin (LPS, 2 ng/kg iv). In addition, freshly isolated neutrophils were stimulated ex vivo with LPS, TNFM-NM-1, G-CSF and GM-CSF to identify stimulus-specific gene transcription responses. Whole transcriptome microarray analysis of circulating neutrophils at 2, 4 and 6 hours after LPS infusion revealed activation of inflammatory networks which are involved in signaling of TNFM-NM-1 and IL-1M-NM-1 and IL-1M-NM-2. The transcriptome profile of inflammatory activated neutrophils in vivo reflects extended survival and regulation of inflammatory responses. We show that these changes in neutrophil transcriptome are most likely due to a combination of early activation of circulating neutrophils by TNFM-NM-1 and G-CSF and a mobilization of young neutrophils from the bone marrow. After LPS infusion blood was taken at t=0, t=2, t=4 and t=6 hours. Neutrophils were isolated and gene expression of these cells was assessed. T=2, t=4 and t=6 were related to t=0 as control condition

Project description:The project examines the mechanisms of neutrophil dysfunction during sepsis. Our work uncovered the central role of cell free circulating histones in eliminating mature neutrophil in favour of immature cells and characterized the mechanisms that regulate their release following systemic infection. Mature and immature neutrophil Ly6Ghigh and Ly6Glow populations isolated from the spleens of WT and TCRα-deficient mice either naïve or infected with C. albicans were characterized. In addition, these populations were compared to neutrophils isolated from WT mice receiving Clodronate-liposomes and recombinant G-CSF. These studies demonstrated that T-cell derived histones drive the release of G-CSF in the spleen and progressively eliminate mature neutrophils by shortening their lifespan. Finally, we conducted proteomic analysis of plasmas isolated from patients with microbial sepsis to correlate markers of neutrophil death to plasma cytokine and histone levels, confirming the pathogenic role these molecules play during sepsis in humans.

Project description:The mechanisms underlying the increased mortality of secondary infections during the immunosuppressive phase of sepsis remain elusive. We established a mouse model of sepsis-induced immunosuppression followed by secondary infection. Compared to other organs, we observed a significant reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokines in the spleen, accompanied by a marked increase in IL-10 production, primarily by infiltrating neutrophils. Furthermore, we confirmed that these infiltrating neutrophils in the spleen during the immunosuppressive phase of sepsis undergo phenotypic change in the local microenvironment, exhibiting high expression of neutrophil biomarkers such as Siglec-F, Ly6G, and Siglec-E. These neutrophils subsequently produced IL-10 to suppress T lymphocytes. Depletion of neutrophils or specifically targeting Siglec-F leads to a notable improvement in the survival of mice with secondary infections. The identification of Siglec-F+ neutrophils as key regulators of immunosuppression following sepsis represents a novel finding with potential therapeutic implications.

Project description:Background: Severe septic syndromes deeply impair innate and adaptive immunity. While neutrophils represent the first line of defense against infection, little is known about their phenotype and functions during sepsis-induced immunosuppression. The objective of this study was thus to perform for the first time a global evaluation of neutrophil alterations in immunosuppressed septic patients based on phenotypic, functional and transcriptomic studies. In addition, the potential association of these parameters and deleterious outcomes was assessed. Methods: Peripheral blood was collected from 9 septic shock patients at D3-4 and D6-8 presenting with features of sepsis-induced immunosuppression and compared to 8 healthy controls. Results: In order to get on overview of potential neutrophil alterations after sepsis, we performed transcriptomic analyses on purified neutrophils from 9 septic shock patients and 8 healthy volunteers. For each time point, comparisons were made between patients and controls. Venn diagrams indicated that 364 up-regulated genes and 328 down-regulated genes were common between the two analyses (Supplementary Tables 1 and 2). Interestingly, most of the differentially expressed genes are involved in cell maturation (CD177), apoptosis (STK4, Caspase 8), cell recruitment and chemotaxis (CD44, TPST, MMP9, CREB1), and antimicrobial properties (ARG1, STOM, ADAM9, CD63, YKL40) of neutrophils. Conclusions: The aim of the current study was to perform an extensive investigation of neutrophil alterations during sepsis-induced immunosuppression through phenotypic, functional and transcriptomic studies. Notably, transcriptomic study on purified neutrophils revealed differentially expressed genes between septic patients and healthy volunteers.
