Project description:The Androgen receptor (AR) in prostate cancer cells acts as a central transcription factor, playing a crucial role in maintaining tumour cell survival and the production of prostate-specific antigen (PSA).To investigate the effect of AR on macrophage gene phenotype, mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) treated with the AR-degrading agent ASC-J9 in presence of conditioned media (CM) derived from RM1 mouse prostate cancer cells (RM1 CM) was collected for RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Differential expressed genes (DEGs) analysis showed that compared to DMSO-treated macrophages, ASC-J9-treated macrophages had lower expressions of Trem2 and Trem1, anti-inflammatory M2-like macrophage markers Cd163 and Arg1 expression, pro-migratory factors Ccl2 and Ccl8, but had higher expressions of pro-inflammatory M1-like macrophage markers Cd86 and Tnf, suggesting that AR may be associated with macrophage phenotypic differentiation.

Project description:Macrophages reside in all organs and participate in homeostatic- and immune regulative processes. Little is known about pancreatic macrophage gene expression. CD206 is an endocytic receptor with prior use in subclassifying macrophages. In the present study, global gene expression was characterized in human pancreatic macrophage subpopulations. Flow cytometry was used to sort CD206- and CD206+ macrophages separately from pancreatic islets and exocrine tissue to high purity. RNA-seq generated transcriptomic profiles were then analyzed. Comparing CD206- with CD206+ macrophages, CD206- showed enrichment in proliferation and nucleic acid processing, glycolysis, pro-inflammatory and SPP1-associated gene sets while CD206+ showed enrichment in complement-, IL-10 and IL-2RA immune regulation, as well as scavenging-related gene sets. Two sets involved in immune regulation were enriched in islet CD206-, while various sets including some proinflammatory sets were enriched in exocrine CD206- macrophages. Fewer differences were found between CD206+ macrophages, with enrichment in two IL2-RA related gene sets in islets and eight gene sets in exocrine samples. Comparing macrophages between individuals with normoglycemia, elevated HbA1c or type 2 diabetes, only a few diverse differentially expressed genes were identified. This work characterizes global gene expression and identifies differences between CD206- and CD206+ macrophage populations within the human pancreas.

Project description:Lung interstitium macrophages (IMs) are non-alveolar resident tissue macrophages which contribute to the lung homeostasis. These cells were reported to be heterogeneous by our group and other teams, which contains two main distinct subpopulations: CD206+ IMs and CD206- IMs. However, the exact origin of IMs and the transcriptional programs that regulate IM differentiation remains unclear. In recent report, we analyzed the refilled IMs in the course of time after induced IM depletion with single-cell RNA sequencing (10X Genomics Chromium) and bulk RNA sequencing. In this study, the de novo refilled CD206+ and CD206- IMs on Day 14 post-depletion were compared to those without depletion. Alvelar macrophages (AMs) samples were also included in this analysis and served as a reference. Results of clustering and PCA analyses showed high similarity between de novo refilled and original IMs for both CD206+ and CD206- subsets. Only 9 genes were find upregulated in refilled IMs: AA467197, Cd109, Igf2r, Rarb and S100a4.

Project description:Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a very rare disease affecting women of childbearing age, either sporadically or in association with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). The proliferation of TSC2 null LAM cells in the lung results in cystic destruction, airflow obstruction, respiratory insufficiency and eventually death. In the LAM lung, the tumor immune microenvironment (TME) plays a role in the progression of LAM lesions. Macrophages can be polarized into inflammatory M1 macrophages or protumorigenic immunosuppressive M2 macrophages. Macrophages are an important component of the TME, and we hypothesized that CD206+ M2 macrophages could facilitate LAM progression and represent a potential therapeutic target.

Project description:PPARγ is known for its anti-inflammatory actions in macrophages. However, which macrophage populations express PPARγ in vivo and how it regulates tissue homeostasis in the steady state and during inflammation is not completely understood. We show that lung and spleen macrophages constitutively expressed PPARγ, while other macrophage populations did not. Recruitment of monocytes to sites of inflammation was associated with induction of PPARγ as they differentiated to macrophages. Its absence in these macrophages led to failed resolution of inflammation, characterized by persistent, low-level recruitment of leukocytes. Conversely, PPARγ agonists supported an earlier cessation in leukocyte recruitment during resolution of acute inflammation and likewise suppressed monocyte recruitment to chronically inflamed atherosclerotic vessels. In the steady state, PPARγ deficiency in macrophages had no obvious impact in the spleen but profoundly altered cellular lipid homeostasis in lung macrophages. Reminiscent of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, LysM-Cre x PPARγflox/flox mice displayed mild leukocytic inflammation in the steady-state lung and succumbed faster to mortality upon infection with S. pneumoniae. Surprisingly, this mortality was not due to overly exuberant inflammation, but instead to impaired bacterial clearance. Thus, in addition to its anti-inflammatory role in promoting resolution of inflammation, PPARγ sustains functionality in lung macrophages and thereby has a pivotal role in supporting pulmonary host defense. The two major subsets of monocytes (Ly-6C+ and Ly-6Clo) from 12-week old C57Bl/6 mice were sorted and the RNA extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip® 430 2.0 arrays. We pooled leukocytes from 5 mice for each sort and sorted 3 to 4 separate times for 3 to 4 biological replicates.

Project description:Nitrogen mustard (NM) is a vesicant known to target the lung, causing acute injury which progresses to fibrosis. Evidence suggests that activated macrophages contribute to the pathologic response to NM. In these studies, we analyzed the role of lung lipids generated following NM exposure on macrophage activation and phenotype. Treatment of rats with NM (0.125 mg/kg, i.t.) resulted in a time-related increase in enlarged vacuolated macrophages in the lung. At 28 d post exposure, macrophages stained positively for Oil Red O, a marker of neutral lipids. This was correlated with an accumulation of oxidized phospholipids in lung macrophages and epithelial cells, and an increase in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) phospholipids. RNA-sequencing analysis revealed that lipid handling pathways under control of the transcription factors LXR, FXR and PPAR-ɣ were significantly altered following NM exposure. Whereas at 1-3 d post NM, FXR and the downstream oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor, Cd36, were increased, Lxr and the lipid extrusion pump targets, Abca1 and Abcg1 were reduced. Treatment of naïve lung macrophages with lipid enriched fractions of BAL collected 3 d after NM resulted in upregulation of Nos2, Apoe and Ptgs2, markers of pro-inflammatory activation, while lipid-enriched BAL collected 28 d post NM upregulated expression of the anti-inflammatory markers, Il10, Cd163, and Cx3cr1, and induced the formation of lipid-laden foamy macrophages. These data suggest that NM-induced alterations in lipid handling and metabolism drive macrophage foam cell formation, potentially contributing to the development of pulmonary fibrosis.

Project description:CD206 is a common marker of a putative immunosuppressive ‘M2’ state in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). We made a novel conditional CD206 (Mrc1) knock-in mouse to specifically visualize and/or deplete CD206+ TAMs. Early depletion of CD206+ macrophages and monocytes (Mono/Macs) led to the indirect loss of conventional type I dendritic cells (cDC1), CD8 T cells and NK cells in tumors. CD206+ TAMs robustly expressed CXCL9, contrasting with stress-responsive Spp1-expressing TAMs and immature monocytes, which became prominent with early depletion. CD206+ TAMs differentially attracted activated CD8 T cells, and the NK and CD8 T cells in CD206-depleted tumors were deficient in Cxcr3, and cDC1-supportive Xcl1 and Flt3l expression. Disrupting this key anti-tumor axis decreased tumor control by antigen-specific T cells in mice. In human cancers, a CD206Replete, but not a CD206Depleted Mono/Mac gene signature correlated robustly with CD8 T cell, cDC1 and NK signatures, and associated with better survival. These findings negate the unqualified classification of CD206+ ‘M2-like’ macrophages as immunosuppressive.

The IMs in Day 4 post-depletion were compared to the those without depletion. Results showed that refilled IMs had a lower ratio of CD206+ IM vs CD206- subpopulation comparing to IMs without depletion, but they shared high similarity to each other, indicating that the de novo IM population had been established before Day 4 post-depletion.

In recent report, we analyzed the refilled IMs in the course of time after induced IM depletion with single-cell RNA sequencing (10X Genomics Chromium) and bulk RNA sequencing. The lung IMs and monocytes from either Lyz2-Cre Mafflox/flox mice (cMAF-KO), Lyz2-Cre Mafbflox/flox (MAFb-KO), Lyz2-Cre Mafflox/flox Mafbflox/flox (dKO) or control litermate mice without floxp locus (Control) were analyzed and compared using single-cell RNA sequencing. All the main substs, i.e. Ly6C+ classical monocytes, Ly6C- patrolling monocytes, CD206+ IMs, CD206- IMs were found in control sample, while IMs are absent in both MAFb-KO and dKO sample accompied by a new intermediate population independent of Mafb expression. CMAF-KO sample show less impact in cell population composition with a lower freqency of CD206+ IM population.

Project description:Progression and relapse-free survival of ovarian carcinoma are associated with the abundance of immunosuppressed CD163highCD206high tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), in particular arachidonic acid (AA), in the tumor microenvironment. In the present study, we have investigated whether both associations are functionally linked. Methods: The effect of PUFAs on cytokine-mediated pro-inflammatory signal transduction was studied in primary monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) by transcriptomics, bioinformatics, phosphoprotein analysis of signal transduction proteins and MS-based proteomics of lipid rafts. Results: Pathway analysis of transcriptional profiles revealed that high CD163 and CD206/MRC1 expression in TAMs is strongly associated with an inhibition of cytokine-triggered signal transduction. This is mirrored by an impairment of the transcriptional response to interferon-beta (IFNbeta), IFNgamma and IL-6 in monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) by AA. This AA-mediated inhibition of pro-inflammatory signaling is caused by dysfunctions of the cognate receptors, as indicated by the inhibition by PUFAs of JAK1, JAK2, STAT1 and STAT3 phosphorylation, with the strongest inhibitory effects exerted by AA and its non-metabolizable analog ETYA. AA/ETYA treatment of MDMs results in altered composition of lipid rafts, including reduced amounts of the interferon receptor IFNAR1, STAT1 and other immune-regulatory proteins. The AA-mediated inhibition of IFN-triggered STAT1 phosphorylation was reversed by water-soluble cholesterol, known to prevent the perturbation of lipid raft structure by PUFAs. Conclusion: Our data suggest that AA, and to a lesser degree other PUFAs, impair pro-inflammatory signaling in macrophages, at least in part by altering the structure of lipid rafts, and thereby contribute to the reeducation of tumor-associated macrophages. Our findings also suggest that the pharmacologic restoration of lipid raft functions in TAM may be a promising strategy for the development of new therapeutic approaches.
