C1q reprograms innate immune memory [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Innate immune memory, also called trained immunity, is a metabolic and epigenetically regulated process that enables innate immune cells to recalibrate their inflammatory reactivity in response to pathogenic or endogenous stimuli. In addition to its function in host defense, trained immunity contributes to diverse immune-mediated diseases. We discovered that complement component 1q (C1q) is an effective modulator of innate immune memory, potently suppressing the responsiveness of myeloid cells. We found that C1q leads to profound reprogramming of myeloid cell metabolism, particularly glycolysis, and exerts control over the transcriptional regulation of important metabolic and inflammatory genes. We corroborate our findings by identifying single-nucleotide polymorphisms close to the C1q gene that are linked to induction of trained immunity in healthy volunteers. Our results reveal a novel immunomodulatory role for C1q and provide evidence of a molecular interaction between the complement system and innate immune memory. These findings expand our understanding of innate immune memory and provide a promising new target for therapeutic intervention.

Microglial-derived C1q integrates into neuronal ribonucleoprotein complexes and impacts protein homeostasis in the aging brain

Project description:Neuroimmune interactions mediate intercellular communication and underlie critical brain functions. Microglia, CNS-resident macrophages, modulate the brain through direct physical interactions and the secretion of molecules. One such secreted factor, the complement protein C1q, contributes to complement-mediated synapse elimination in development and disease models, yet brain C1q protein levels increase significantly throughout aging. How age-related C1q affects neuronal function has not been demonstrated. Here we report that C1q interacts with neuronal ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes in an age-dependent manner. Purified C1q protein undergoes RNA-dependent liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) in vitro, and the interaction of C1q with neuronal RNP complexes in vivo is dependent on RNA and endocytosis. Mice lacking C1q have age-specific alterations in neuronal protein synthesis in vivo and impaired fear memory extinction. Together, our findings reveal a biophysical property of C1q that underlies RNA- and age-dependent neuronal interactions and demonstrate a unique role of C1q in critical intracellular neuronal processes.

Trained immunity is facilitated by T cell-induced CD40-TRAF6 signaling [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Trained immunity refers to epigenetic and metabolic changes in innate immune cells following exposure to inflammatory signals, leading to a heightened response to secondary stimuli. Although this innate immune memory contributes to host defense against infections, it can also have maladaptive consequences in a broad range of immune-driven conditions. During the past decade, we have gained an increasingly better understanding of the molecular regulation of trained immunity, but the role of adaptive immune cells in modulation of trained immunity remains largely unknown. Here, we show that T cell interactions contribute to the induction of trained immunity in monocytes and that this mediated by CD40-TRAF6 signaling. Specifically, we found that inhibiting CD40-TRAF6 signaling prevents the induction of functional, transcriptomic, metabolic and epigenetic changes associated with trained immunity. Apart from detailed in vitro studies, we inhibited CD40-TRAF6 signaling in vivo in myeloid cells in a murine heart transplantation model which resulted in prolonged allograft survival. When the animals were additionally treated with costimulatory blockade by CTLA4-Ig, we observed immunological tolerance to the graft. Combined, our study reveals that trained immunity induction is regulated by CD40-TRAF6 signaling between myeloid and adaptive immune cells, and that this signaling can be efficiently leveraged for therapeutic purposes.

Trained Immunity Causes Myeloid Cell Hypercoagulability

Project description:Venous thromboembolism is common in individuals with chronic inflammatory diseases, but the pathogenic basis for this increased thrombotic risk remains poorly understood. Myeloid cell ‘trained immunity’ describes persistent innate immune cell memory arising from prior exposure to an inflammatory stimulus, leading to an enhanced immune response to subsequent unrelated stimuli. We identify enhanced myeloid cell prothrombotic activity as a novel maladaptive consequence of trained immunity. LPS stimulation of murine bone marrow-derived macrophages trained previously with either β-glucan or free haem exhibited significantly enhanced procoagulant and antifibrinolytic gene expression and activity compared to macrophages stimulated with LPS alone. The β-glucan training-mediated increase in activated myeloid cell procoagulant activity was mediated by enhanced acid sphingomyelinase-mediated tissue factor (TF) functional decryption. Furthermore, pre-treatment with methyltransferase and acetyltransferase inhibitors to erase epigenetic marks associated with innate immune memory diminished trained macrophage TF gene expression in β-glucan-trained macrophages. Functional analysis of splenic monocytes isolated from β-glucan-trained mice revealed enhanced procoagulant activity up to 4 weeks after β-glucan administration compared to monocytes from control mice over the same time period. Remarkably, monocyte procoagulant activity increased proportionately with time since β-glucan administration, before plateauing at 4 weeks. Furthermore, haematopoietic progenitor cells and bone marrow interstitial fluid isolated from β-glucan-trained mice possessed enhanced procoagulant activity compared to control mice. Trained immunity and associated metabolic perturbations may therefore represent novel therapeutic vulnerabilities in immunothrombotic disease development, opening new avenues for targeted intervention.

Western diet triggers NLRP3-dependent persistent functional reprogramming of myeloid cells II [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Here we investigated whether sterile triggers of inflammation induce trained immunity and thereby influence innate immune responses. Western diet (WD) feeding of Ldlr-/- mice induced systemic inflammation, which was undectable in serum soon after mice were shifted back to chow diet (CD). In contrast, myeloid cell responses towards innate stimuli remained broadly augmented. WD induced transcriptomic and epigenomic reprogramming of myeloid progenitor cells, leading to increased proliferation as well as enhanced innate immune and interferon responses towards in vivo LPS challenge. QTL analysis in human monocytes trained with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) and stimulated with LPS suggested inflammasome-mediated trained immunity. Consistently, Nlrp3-/-/Ldlr-/--deficient mice lacked WD-induced systemic inflammation or myeloid progenitor proliferation and reprogramming. Hence, NLRP3 mediates trained immunity following WD and could thereby arbitrate the potentially deleterious effects of trained immunity in inflammatory diseases.
