Dermal TRPV1 innervations engage a macrophage and fibroblast containing pathway to activate hair growth [dataset2]

ABSTRACT: Pain, detected by nociceptors, is an integral part of injury, yet whether and how it can impact tissue physiology and recovery remain understudied. Here we applied chemogenetics in mice to locally activate dermal TRPV1 innervations in naïve skin and found it triggered new regenerative cycling by dormant hair follicles (HFs).This was preceded by rapid apoptosis of dermal macrophages, mediated by the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). TRPV1 activation also triggered a macrophage-dependent induction of Spp1-expressing dermal fibroblasts. The neuropeptide CGRP andSpp1were essential for the nociceptor-triggered hair growth. Finally, we show that epidermal abrasion injury induced Spp1-expressing dermal fibroblasts and hair growth via a TRPV1 neuron and CGRP dependent mechanism.Collectively, these data demonstrate a role for TRPV1 nociceptors in orchestrating a macrophage and fibroblast-supported mechanism to promote hair growth, and enabling the efficient restoration of this mechano- and thermo-protective barrier after wounding.

A chemogenetic screen for neuro-immune interactions in the gut: Trpv1+ nociceptor neurons control T regulatory cells

Project description:Neuroimmune crosstalk is critical for intestinal and tissue homeostasis. Yet the role of molecularly distinct subsets of gut-innervating neurons in regulating the activity of gut immunocytes, and the mechanisms of this neuroimmune signaling remain unclear. Here, we performed a chemogenetic and flow cytometry-based analysis of mice targeting eight different peripheral neuron subsets to assess how gut immunocytes are altered following neural activation. We found that distinct neurons modulated discreet anatomical populations of immunocytes in the gut in ileum, cecum, and colon. Nos1+ neuron activation decreased the percentage of RORg+ ileal conventional CD4+ T cells, whereas ChAT+ neuron activation decreased ileal neutrophils. Trpv1+ neuron activation displayed the most robust immunomodulatory phenotype, causing downregulation of RORg+ T regulatory cells in the colon and cecum. The immune cells exhibited decreased proliferation, enhanced cell stress, and altered cell activation markers. Further genetic and pharmacological approaches showed that spinal afferent Trpv1+ neurons specifically decreased Treg cells by signaling via the neuropeptide CGRP. Our study provided a comprehensive understanding of neuro-immune interactions, revealing a role for mechanisms by which Trpv1+ neurons regulate gut Treg cells.

Expression Data from fracture calli of alpha-CGRP deficient mice

Project description:alpha-CGRP is a neuropeptide that is also expressed in the fracture callus during bone regeneration. Our aim was to evaluate the role of alpha-CGRP in the context of fracture healing. Therefore we investigated the effect of alpha-CGRP deficiency on fracture callus formation. We used microarray analysis to compare the global gene expression of fracture calli from alpha-CGRP deficient mice and WT mice.

CGRP sensory neurons promote tissue healing by modulating neutrophils and macrophages

Project description:Since the immune system plays a critical role in orchestrating tissue healing, regenerative strategies that control immune components have proven effective. This is particularly relevant when immune dysregulation resulting from conditions such as diabetes or advanced age impairs tissue healing following injury. Nociceptive sensory neurons play a crucial role as immunoregulators, exerting both protective and harmful effects depending on the context. However, how neuro-immune interactions impact tissue repair and regeneration after acute injury is unclear. Here, we show that Nav1.8+ nociceptor ablation impairs skin wound repair and muscle regeneration after acute tissue injuries. Nociceptor endings grow into injured skin and muscle tissues and signal to immune cells through the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) during the healing process. CGRP acts via receptor activity modifying protein 1 (RAMP1) on neutrophils and macrophages to inhibit recruitment, accelerate death, enhance efferocytosis, and polarise macrophages towards a pro-repair phenotype. CGRP effects on neutrophils and macrophages are mediated via thrombospondin-1 release and its subsequent autocrine/paracrine effects. In mice without nociceptors and diabetic mice with peripheral neuropathies, delivering an engineered version of CGRP accelerated wound healing and promoted muscle regeneration. Harnessing neuro-immune interactions holds potential to treat non-healing tissues where dysregulated neuro-immune interactions impair tissue healing.

Bacteria hijack a neuro-immune axis in meninges to facilitate brain invasion

Project description:The meninges are densely innervated by nociceptive sensory neurons that mediate pain and headache. How pain and neuro-immune interactions impact meningeal host defenses is unclear. Bacterial meningitis causes life-threatening infections of the meninges and central nervous system (CNS), affecting over one million people a year. Here we find that Nav1.8+ neuron signaling to immune cells in the meninges via the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) exacerbates bacterial meningitis. Nociceptor ablation reduced meningeal and brain invasion by two bacterial pathogens: Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus agalactiae. S. pneumoniae activated nociceptors via Pneumolysin to release CGRP, which acts through its receptor RAMP1 on meningeal macrophages to inhibit chemokine expression, neutrophil recruitment and antimicrobial defenses. Macrophage-specific RAMP1 deficiency or blockade of RAMP1 signaling enhanced immune responses and bacterial clearance in meninges and brain. Therefore, targeting a neuro-immune axis in the meninges can enhance host defenses and may be a potential treatment for bacterial meningitis.

The neuronal tyrosine kinase receptor ligand ALKAL2 mediates persistent pain

Project description:To identify putative genes that could contribute to the phenotypic plasticity of TRPV1 nociceptors in inflammation-induced sensitization, we used the Complete Freund’s Adjuvant (CFA) model of chronic inflammatory pain. Three days post intraplantar injection of CFA, ipsilateral and contralateral lumbar DRG neurons were separated, and TRPV1-pHluorin neurons were purified by FACS and analyzed through the GeneChip™ Mouse Gene 2.0 ST Array. The array analysis provided a complete expression profile of mRNA between contralateral and ipsilateral TRPV1 neurons following inflammatory insult. In inflammatory condition, we found >100 genes to be up or down regulated in TRPV1 neurons.

Neuropeptide CGRP limits ILC2 responses and constrains type 2 inflammation

Project description:Innate and adaptive lymphocytes work in concert to maintain tissue homeostasis and to mediate host defense at mucosal barriers. Herein, we used single cell analysis to show substantial diversity of gene expression in ILCs and T helper cells during a helminth infection in the lung. Notably, we found that the Calca gene, which is spliced to generate the neuropeptide CGRP, was selectively transcribed in ILC2s and Th2 cells in an activation dependent manner. The Calca locus acquired chromatin accessibility at the ILC2 precursor stage and is pre-programmed for rapid production of CGRP upon ILC2 activation. CGRP globally antagonized actions of neuromedin U (NMU) and the alarmin IL-33. However, CGRP selectively acted in concert with NMU and IL-33 to promote IL-5 expression, but not IL-13. The complex interplay among neuropeptides and alarmin fine-tunes type 2 immune responses and will undoubtedly become more relevant as therapeutic neuropeptide blockade advances in the clinic.

Calcitonin gene related peptide negatively regulates alarmin-driven type 2 innate lymphoid cell responses

Project description:Neuroimmune interactions have emerged as critical modulators of allergic inflammation, and type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are an important cell type for mediating these interactions. Here, we show that ILC2s expressed both the neuropeptide CGRP (Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide) and its receptor. CGRP potently inhibited alarmin-driven type 2 cytokine production and proliferation by lung ILC2s both in vitro and in vivo. CGRP induced marked changes in ILC2 expression programs in vivo and in vitro, attenuating alarmin-driven proliferative and effector responses. A distinct subset of ILCs scored highly for a CGRP-specific gene signature after in vivo alarmin stimulation, suggesting CGRP regulated this response. Finally, we observed increased ILC2 proliferation and type 2 cytokine production and exaggerated responses to alarmins in mice lacking the CGRP receptor. Together, these data indicate that endogenous CGRP is a critical negative regulator of ILC2 responses in vivo.

The neuroimmune CGRP-RAMP1 axis tunes cutaneous adaptive immunity to the microbiota

Project description:The somatosensory nervous system surveils external stimuli at barrier tissues, regulating innate immune cells under infection and inflammation. The roles of sensory neurons in controlling the adaptive immune system, and more specifically immunity to the microbiota, however, remain elusive. Here, we identified a novel mechanism for direct neuroimmune communication between commensal-specific T lymphocytes and somatosensory neurons mediated by the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in the skin. Intravital imaging revealed that commensal-specific T cells are in close proximity to cutaneous nerve fibers in vivo. Correspondingly, we observed upregulation of the receptor for the neuropeptide CGRP, RAMP1, in CD8+ T lymphocytes induced by skin commensal colonization. Neuroimmune CGRP-RAMP1 signaling axis functions in commensal-specific T cells to constrain Type 17 responses and moderate the activation status of microbiota-reactive lymphocytes at homeostasis. As such, modulation of neuroimmune CGRP-RAMP1 signaling in commensal-specific T cells shapes the overall activation status of the skin epithelium, thereby impacting the outcome of responses to insults such as wounding. The ability of somatosensory neurons to control adaptive immunity to the microbiota via the CGRP-RAMP1 axis underscores the various layers of regulation and multisystem coordination required for optimal microbiota-reactive T cell functions under steady state and pathology.
