Project description:Gene expression in eosinophils isolated by FACS from inguinal subcutaneous adipose tissue of WT and mice lacking the transcriptional repressor Kruppel-like factor 3 (KLF3). We aimed to investigate deregulation of pathways and genes in the absence of KLF3 in eosinophils that reside in the subcutaneous adipose tissue, in order to study the role of KLF3 and its target genes in adipose eosinophil function and activity.

Project description:The recognition of the immune system as a key component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) led to promising therapeutics. Since such therapies benefit only subsets of patients, understanding the activities of immune cells in the TME is required. Eosinophils are an integral part of the TME especially in mucosal tumors. Nonetheless, their role in the TME and the environmental cues that direct their activities are largely unknown, especially in metastasis. We report that breast cancer-driven lung metastasis is characterized by resident and recruited eosinophils. Eosinophil recruitment to the metastatic lung was regulated by G protein coupled receptor signaling but independent of CCR3. Functionally, eosinophils promoted lymphocyte-mediated anti tumor immunity. Transcriptome and proteomic analyses identified the TME rather than intrinsic differences between eosinophil subsets as a key instructing factor directing anti tumorigenic eosinophil activities. Specifically, TNF-a/IFN-g-activated eosinophils facilitated CD4+ and CD8+ T cell infiltration and promoted anti-tumor immunity. Collectively, we identify a mechanism by which the TME entrains eosinophils to adopt anti-tumorigenic properties, which may lead to the development of eosinophil-targeted therapeutics.

Project description:Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) having higher blood eosinophil levels exhibit worse lung function and more severe emphysema, implying the potential role of eosinophils in emphysema development. However, the specific mechanism underlying eosinophil-mediated emphysema development is not fully elucidated. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing was used to identify eosinophil subgroups in mouse models of asthma and emphysema and analyze their functions. Analysis of the accumulated eosinophils revealed differential transcriptomes between the mouse lungs of elastase-induced emphysema and ovalbumin-induced asthma., Eosinophil depletion alleviated elastase-induced emphysema. Notably, eosinophil-derived cathepsin L (CTSL) degraded the extracellular matrix (ECM), causing emphysema in the pulmonary tissue. Eosinophils were positively correlated with serum CTSL levels, which were increased in patients with emphysema than in those without emphysema. Collectively, these results suggest that CTSL expression in eosinophils plays an important role in ECM degradation and remodeling and is related to emphysema in patients with COPD. Therefore, eosinophil-derived CTSL may serve as a potential therapeutic target for patients with emphysema.

Project description:No longer regarded as simply end-stage cytotoxic effectors, eosinophils are now recognized as complex cells with unique phenotypes that develop in response to the local microenvironment. In our previous study, we documented eosinophil infiltration in association with characteristic muscle damage in the dystrophin-deficient (mdx) mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In this earlier study, we found that eosinophils did not promote formation of muscle lesions, as these persisted in eosinophil-deficient mdx.PHIL mice. To obtain additional insight into these findings, we performed RNA sequencing on eosinophils isolated from muscle tissue of mdx, IL5tg, and mdx.IL5tg mouse strains. We discovered profound up-regulation of classical eosinophil effector proteins (major basic protein-1, eosinophil peroxidase, and eosinophil-associated ribonucleases, or RNases) in eosinophils isolated from lesion-free muscle from IL5tg mice. By contrast, we observed significant upregulation of tissue remodeling genes, including proteases, extracellular matrix components, collagen, and skeletal muscle precursors, as well as the immunomodulatory receptor, TREM2, in eosinophils isolated from skeletal muscle tissue from the dystrophin-deficient mdx mouse strain. The anti-inflammatory properties of TREM2 have been described in the monocyte/macrophage lineage; however, there are no previous studies documenting TREM2 expression in eosinophils. Here we show that TREM2 is critical for full growth and differentiation of bone marrow-derived eosinophil cultures and for full expression of toll-like receptor 4. Immunoreactive TREM2 was also detected on human eosinophils at levels that correlated with donor body mass index. Taken together, our findings provide important insight into the immunomodulatory and remodeling capacity of mouse eosinophils and the flexibility of their gene expression profiles in vivo.

Project description:Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) an innate receptor that canonically amplifies inflammatory signaling in neutrophils and monocytes, plays a central role in regulating lung inflammation. Utilizing a murine model of asthma, flow cytometry revealed TREM-1+ eosinophils in the lung tissue and airway during allergic airway inflammation. TREM-1 expression was restricted to recruited, inflammatory eosinophils. Expression was induced on bone marrow derived eosinophils by incubation with IL-33, LPS, or GM-CSF. Compared to TREM-1- airway eosinophils, TREM-1+ eosinophils were enriched for pro-inflammatory gene sets including migration, respiratory burst, and cytokine production. Unexpectedly, eosinophil-specific ablation of TREM-1 increased airway IL-5 and lung tissue eosinophil accumulation. Further investigation of transcriptional data revealed apoptosis related gene sets were enriched in TREM-1+ eosinophils. Annexin V staining demonstrated higher rates of apoptosis among TREM-1+ eosinophils compared to TREM-1- eosinophils in the inflammatory airway. In vitro, Trem1/3-/- eosinophils were protected from apoptosis. Finally, inhibition of reactive oxygen species production with diphenyleneiodonium protected WT bone marrow derived eosinophils from apoptosis more than Trem1/3-/- eosinophils, suggesting that superoxide accounted for more apoptosis in WT cells. These data demonstrate protein level expression of TREM-1 by eosinophils for the first time, define a population of TREM-1+ inflammatory eosinophils, and reveal that eosinophil TREM-1 restricts key features of type 2 lung inflammation.

Project description:To determine how AHR affects eosinophil adaptation to the intestinal environment, eosinophils were sorted from the small intestine from WT, Ahr knockout and Ahrr knockout mice and compared by RNA sequencing. The canonical AHR pathway was active in murine intestinal eosinophils and limited eosinophil survival in the small intestine in a cell-intrinsic manner. Eosinophils from AHR-deficient mice retained increased expression of pathways associated with bone marrow eosinophils and failed to fully express the intestinal gene expression program, including extracellular matrix organization and cell junction pathways. Thus, our study demonstrates that the response to environmental triggers via AHR shapes tissue adaptation of eosinophils in the small intestine.

Project description:Activated eosinophils contribute to airway dysfunction and tissue remodeling in asthma, and thus are considered an important factor in asthma pathology. We report here comparative proteomic and phosphoproteomic changes upon activation of eosinophils using eight cytokines individually and in selected cytokine combinations, in time-course reactions. Differential protein and phosphoprotein expressions were determined by mass spectrometry after 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DGE) followed by protein identification by MS, and by label-free LC-MS/MS. We found that each cytokine-stimulation produced significantly different changes in the eosinophil proteome and phosphoproteome, with phosphoproteomic changes being more pronounced and having an earlier onset. Furthermore, we observed that IL-5, GM-CSF, and IL 3 showed the greatest change in protein expression and phosphorylation, and this expression differed markedly from those of the other five cytokines evaluated. Comprehensive univariate and multivariate statistical analyses were employed to evaluate the comparative results. We also monitored eosinophil activation using flow cytometry (FC) analysis of CD69 expression. In agreement with our proteomic studies, FC indicated that IL-5, GM-CSF, and IL-3 were more effective than the other five cytokines studied in stimulating a cell surface CD69 increase indicative of eosinophil activation. Moreover, selected combinations of cytokines revealed proteomic patterns with many proteins in common with single cytokine expression patterns but also showed a greater than additive effect of the two cytokines employed, indicating a more complex signaling pathway that was reflective of a more typical inflammatory pathology.

Project description:Purpose: we aimed to characterized eosinophils in the murine model of asthma Methods: Eosinophils were sorted from the lung of naïve and and HDM-induced asthma mice. There after RNA was extracted from the sorted eosinophils and subjected to RNAseq. Results:we demonstrated that resident lung eosinophils require IL-5 for their survival and that the expression of Siglec-F, is regulated by IL-5 . Conclusion: Our data suggest that the distinct eosinophil populations in the asthmatic lung represent a continuum of activation states rather than distinct eosinophil subsets.
