VSIG4-EXPRESSING MACROPHAGES CONTRIBUTE TO ANTI-PARASITIC AND ANTI-METASTATIC RESPONSES IN THE PERITONEAL CAVITY

ABSTRACT: Large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs) play a role as gatekeepers of peritoneal homeostasis by providing a first line of defense against pathogens. A third of the LPMs express the surface receptor VSIG4, but it is unclear whether these cells differ from their VSIG4-negative counterparts and perform dedicated functions. We demonstrate that VSIG4+, but not VSIG4-, LPMs are in majority derived from embryonal precursors and their occurrence is largely independent from sex and microbiota but increases with age. Although their transcriptome and surface proteome are indistinguishable from VSIG4- LPMs at steady-state, VSIG4+ LPMs are superior in phagocytosing S. aureus bioparticles and colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cells. Anti-VSIG4 nanobody constructs that are ADCC-enabled allowed a selective elimination of the VSIG4+ LPM subset without affecting overall LPM abundance. This strategy uncovered a role for VSIG4+ LPMs in lowering the first peak of parasitemia in a Trypanosoma brucei brucei infection model and in reducing CRC outgrowth in the peritoneal cavity, a prime metastatic site in CRC patients. Altogether, our data uncover a protective role for VSIG4+ LPMs in infectious and oncological diseases in the peritoneal cavity.

RNA-seq gene expression profiles of primary murine peritoneal mesothelial cells.

Project description:Local factors produced in the tissue microenvironment play essential roles in promoting the ontogeny and phenotype of tissue resident macrophages (TRM). In the peritoneal cavity, large peritoneal macrophages (LPM) are the dominant TRMs that functionally mediate type 2 immunity, facilitate tissue repair of the mesothelium, and protect against peritoneal fibrosis. It is established that retinoic acid derived from the omentum induces transcription factor Gata6 expression in LPMs, which in turn regulates gene expression of factors that define peritoneal macrophages. It is still unclear whether retinoic acid is the sole local factor that regulates Gata6 expression in LPMs. Mesothelial cells line the entire peritoneal cavity and produce a protective, non-adhesive barrier against injury, at least in part by recruiting immune cells with secreted cytokines, such as M-CSF. We hypothesized that secreted factors from peritoneal mesothelial cells are also responsible for regulating LPM development including both ontogeny and function. Due to their immediate proximity to the peritoneal cavity, we propose that mesothelial cells can produce and secrete proteins into the peritoneum to maintain Gata6 expression by LPMs. To identify secreted factors that are highly and specifically expressed in mesothelial cells, we harvested primary mesothelial cells from 10-week-old C57BL/6 mice using FACS selection (CD45- PDPN+ GPM6a+). Total RNA was isolated from these cells and subjected to RNA-seq analysis after depletion of ribosomal RNA.

RNAseq for peritoneal macrophages phagocytosing E.coli in the absence or presence of retinoic acid

Project description:Peritoneal macrophages comprise two distinct subpopulations: large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs) and small peritoneal macrophages (SPMs), each with unique phenotypic and functional characteristics. This study investigates the role of retinoic acid (RA) in modulating the response of peritoneal macrophages to bacterial infections. Using a murine peritonitis model, we demonstrate that RA enhances the phagocytic capacity of macrophages, delays the decline in phagocytic function, and alters macrophage distribution in the peritoneal cavity. RA treatment induced notable transcriptional changes in both LPMs and SPMs.

TIM4 enables large peritoneal macrophages to cross-present tumor antigens at early stages of tumorigenesis

Project description:Cross-presentation of ingested tumor antigens by cells of the myeloid lineage is critical to shape anti-tumoral immune responses. However, the identity of cross-presenting macrophages, the cellular mechanism and the impact on anti-cancer CD8 T cell responses along tumor progression needs to be clarified. Here we examined the capacity of TIM4+ large peritoneal macrophages (LPM) to capture and cross-present antigens of incipient peritoneal metastasis in a model of ovarian cancer. We show that TIM4+ LPM, the most abundant myeloid population in the cavity, avidly engulf cancer cells and cross-present tumor-associated antigens, specifically at tumor inception. The phosphatidylserine (PS) receptor TIM4 promotes maximal uptake and triggers inflammatory and metabolic gene programs coupled to cytoskeletal remodeling and upregulation transcriptional signatures related to antigen processing. At the cellular levels, TIM4 is recruited with F-actin at the phagocytic cup and translocates in nascent phagosomes, controlling the kinetic of phagosomal acidification and cargo degradation. TIM4 deletion abrogates cross-presentation of tumor-associated antigens and blunts expansion of effector CD8 T cells at tumor inception. In addition, targeting tumor antigens to LPM by PS liposomes can trigger CD8 T cell activation. Together these results suggest that TIM4 enables LPMs to scan the antigenic content of incoming tumor cells to promote immune surveillance by CD8 T cells and, at defined temporal windows, may be exploited for therapeutic purposes.

Broad-spectrum antibiotics disrupt homeostatic efferocytosis [scRNA-seq]

Project description:The clearance of apoptotic cells, termed efferocytosis, is essential for tissue homeostasis and prevention of autoimmunity. Although past studies have elucidated local molecular signals that regulate homeostatic efferocytosis1 in a tissue, whether signals arising distally also regulate homeostatic efferocytosis remains elusive. Here, we find that large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs) display impaired efferocytosis in broad-spectrum antibiotics (ABX)-treated, vancomycin-treated, and germ-free mice in vivo. Mechanistically, the microbiota-derived short-chain fatty acid butyrate directly boosted efferocytosis efficiency/capacity in mouse and human macrophages, and rescued ABX-induced LPM efferocytosis defects in vivo. Bulk mRNA sequencing of butyrate-treated macrophages in vitro and single cell mRNA sequencing of LPMs isolated from ABX-treated and butyrate-rescued mice revealed regulation of efferocytosis-supportive transcriptional programs. Specifically, we found that the efferocytosis receptor T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain containing 4 (TIM-4, Timd4) was downregulated in LPMs of ABX-treated mice but rescued by oral butyrate and TIM-4 was required for the butyrate-induced enhancement of LPM efferocytosis capacity. LPM efferocytosis was impaired beyond withdrawal of ABX and ABX-treated mice exhibited significantly worse disease in a mouse model of lupus. Our results demonstrate that homeostatic efferocytosis relies on distal metabolic signals and suggest that defective homeostatic efferocytosis may explain link between ABX use and inflammatory disease.

Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-Seq) for Bhlhe40 from naïve and IL-4c-stimulated large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs)

Project description:Most tissue-resident macrophage populations develop during embryogenesis, self-renew in the steady state, and can expand during type 2 immunity. Whether shared mechanisms regulate macrophage proliferation in homeostasis and disease is unclear. We found that the transcription factor Bhlhe40 was cell-intrinsically required in large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs) for self-renewal and maintenance, but was not required in other resident macrophages. Bhlhe40 was selectively necessary in LPMs for proliferation, but not polarization, in response to IL-4. During a helminth infection, Bhlhe40 was required for normal LPM cell cycling. Bhlhe40 repressed the expression of Maf and Mafb and directly promoted expression of cell cycle-related transcripts to enable proliferation of LPMs. Genomic sites bound by Bhlhe40 in LPMs included some co-bound by the macrophage lineage-determining factor PU.1 and others uniquely bound by Bhlhe40, including Maf and cell cycle-related loci. Our findings demonstrate a tissue-specific control mechanism regulating resident macrophage proliferation in homeostasis and type 2 immunity.

Peritoneal macrophage heterogeneity in decompensated liver cirrhosis

Project description:Peritoneal macrophages (PM) are thought to regulate peritoneal inflammation and control bacterial infections in decompensated liver cirrhosis. The aim of this study was to characterize human PM heterogeneity. Employing CD206 surface expression, we identified subsets of human large (LPM) and small (SPM) PM, which differed in granularity and maturation states. FACS-sorted LPM from patients with decompensated cirrhosis revealed discrete transcriptome clusters, comprising more than 4000 differentially regulated genes involved in cell cycle, metabolism, and immune signaling.

Two distinct subsets are identified from the peritoneal myeloid mononuclear cells expressing both CD11c and CD115

Project description:The peritoneal cavity is home to various immune cells. Previous studies have investigated the heterogenous nature of peritoneal myeloid mononuclear cells. However, up to this date, there are no clear criteria to distinguish peritoneal macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). In the present study, we delineate the subsets of myeloid mononuclear cells in the mouse peritoneal cavity. Considering phenotypical, functional, and ontogenic features, peritoneal myeloid mononuclear cells are divided into 5 subsets: large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs), small peritoneal macrophages (SPMs), DCs, and 2 MHCII+CD11c+CD115+ subpopulations (i.e., MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- and MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+). Among them, 2 subsets of competent antigen presenting cells are demonstrated with distinct functional characteristics, one being DCs and the other being MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells. DCs are able to promote fully activated T cells and superior in expanding cytokine producing inflammatory T cells, whereas MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells generate partially activated T cells and possess a greater ability to induce regulatory T cells under TGF-β and retinoic acid conditions. While the development of DCs and MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells are responsive to the treatment of FLT3L and GM-CSF, the numbers of LPMs, SPMs, and MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+ cells are only influenced by the injection of GM-CSF. In addition, the analysis of transcriptomes reveals that the gene expression profile of MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+ cells share high similarity with that of SPMs. Collectively, our study identifies 2 distinct subpopulations of MHCII+CD11c+CD115+ cells, (i) MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14-CD206- cells closely related to DCs and (ii) MHCII+CD11c+CD115+CD14+CD206+ cells to SPMs.
