Single-cell RNA Sequencing Reveals the Heterogeneity of Monocyte-derived Macrophages in Liver of Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatotic Liver Disease

ABSTRACT: Monocyte-derived macrophages (MoMFs) orchestrate inflammation and fibrogenesis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). However, current therapeutic strategies targeting macrophage-mediated inflammation have shown limited clinical efficacy in MASLD. Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of liver-infiltrating MoMFs from MASLD mouse models, we identified seven distinct clusters (c0-c6) with unique molecular signatures. Among these, the predominant CD14+CCR2+ (c0) showed multifaceted functions in fibrosis, lipid phagocytosis, and antigen presentation beyond inflammation. We identified two distinct clusters, CCR3+ (c3) and CCR7+ (c4) MoMFs, which exhibited enhanced pro-inflammatory/oxidative stress activity and specialized antigen-presenting capacity, respectively. Pseudotime analysis revealed that the resident basal cluster (c1) could give rise to both CD14+CCR2+ (c0) and CCR7+ (c4) MoMFs during disease progression, challenging the traditional view that CCR2+ MoMFs exclusively originate from bone marrow. Notably, these MoMFs subsets and their dynamic changes during disease progression were conserved between mouse models and human MASLD samples. These findings expand our understanding of MoMFs heterogeneity and suggest new therapeutic strategies for MASLD.

Rebalancing liver-infiltrated CCR3+ and CD206+ monocytes improves diet induced NAFLD

Project description:Melatonin has been reported to improve NAFLD, exploring the underlying mechanisms will be beneficial for better treatment of NAFLD. CDHFD- and MCD-fed mice with melatonin intervention exhibited significantly decreased liver steatosis, lobular inflammation, and focal liver necrosis. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed melatonin selectively inhibited proinflammatory CCR3+ MoMFs, and upregulated anti-inflammatory CD206+ MoMFs in NAFLD mice. Hepatic infiltrated CCR3+CD14+ MoMFs is also significantly increased in patients with NAFLD. Mechanistically, melatonin receptor independent BTG2-ATF4 signaling plays a vital role in the regulation of CCR3+ MoMFs endoplasmic reticulum stress, survival, and proinflammation by melatonin. In contrast, melatonin upregulated CD206+ MoMFs survival and polarization via MT1/2 receptors. Melatonin stimulation also regulates human CCR3+ MoMFs and CD206+ MoMFs survival and inflammation in vitro. Furthermore, CCR3 depletion antibody monotherapy decreased liver inflammation and improved NAFLD in mice. Thus, Therapies targeting CCR3+ MoMFs may have potential benefits in NAFLD treatment.

Characterization of macrophages in healthy and diseased livers in mice

Project description:Healthy livers contain many resident macrophages named Kupffer cells (KCs), which are partially replaced by infiltrating monocyte-derived macrophages (MoMFs) during acute or chronic liver injury. Despite extensive research, understanding macrophage heterogeneity, spatial distribution, and interactions with other cells within the liver remains challenging. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate liver macrophage gene expression in naïve and Concanavalin A (ConA)-treated mice. MoMF clusters expanded following ConA treatment, while KCs remained stable. Macrophages were divided into distinct subtypes, including C1q+ MoMFs, with differential expression of genes like Trem2, Spp1, Fabp5 and Gpnmb. Newly recruited C1q- MoMFs expressed high levels of Lyz and Ccr2, while Itgax (Cd11c)+ MoMFs expressed endothelin converting enzyme 1 (Ece1), a gene encoding ECE1 enzyme that activates endothelin to promote hepatic stellate cell contraction and necrotic lesion resolution. By immunostaining analysis of the proteins encoded by these signature genes, we identified several populations of MoMFs that were mainly located surrounding the necrotic lesion area and expressed various proteins that are involved dead cell debris clearance.

CCR2 and CCR7 promote inflammatory monocyte recruitment through synergistic roles during encephalitic virus infection, but the monocyte response in the brain is dependent on the infecting virus

Project description:Inflammatory monocytes (iMO) migrate from the bone marrow to the brain during viral encephalitis. For many viruses, including Herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV), iMO recruitment is dependent on the chemokine receptor CCR2. However, La Crosse virus (LACV) induces iMO recruitment independent of CCR2. Comparison of iMOs from HSV and LACV-infected mice showed higher expression of the g protein-coupled receptor CCR7 in LACV-induced iMOs. CCR2/CCR7 double knockout mice (DKO) had reduced iMO recruitment following LACV infection compared to CCR2 or CCR7 single knockout mice indicating that each receptor regulated iMO recruitment through complimentary roles. Thus, CCR7 is a novel, synergistic pathway to CCR2-induced iMO recruitment during virus infection. Interestingly, unlike HSV-recruited iMOs, LACV-recruited iMOs did not influence disease and had higher expression of proinflammatory and proapoptotic transcripts but reduced mitotic, phagocytic and phagolysosomal pathway transcripts. These findings indicate that virus-specific activation of iMOs may affect their survival, maturation and functional capabilities.

Transcriptome comparison between CCR2+ and CCR2- classical monocytes in SIV-infected Macaca nemestrina

Project description:Monocytes have been categorized in three main subpopulations based on CD14 and CD16 surface expression. Classical monocytes are the most abundant subset in the blood. They express a CD14+CD16-CCR2+ phenotype, which confers on them the ability to migrate to inflammatory sites by quickly responding to CCL2 signaling. Here we identified and characterized the surge and expansion of a novel monocyte subset during SIV and HIV infection. They were undistinguishable from classical monocytes regarding CD14 and CD16 expression, but did not express surface CCR2. Transcriptome analysis of sorted cells confirmed that they represent a distinct subpopulation that expresses lower levels of inflammatory cytokines and activation markers than their CCR2+ counterparts. They exhibited impaired phagocytosis and deficient chemotaxis in response to CCL2 and CCL7, besides being refractory to SIV infection. We named these cells atypical CCR2- classical (ACC) monocytes, and believe they play an important role in AIDS pathogenesis, possibly reflecting an anti-inflammatory response against the extreme immune activation observed during SIV and HIV infection. Antiretroviral therapy caused this population to decline in both macaque and human subjects, suggesting that this atypical phenotype may be induced by viral replication. Expression profiling by NanoString nCounter gene expression system. Classical monocytes (CD14++CD16-) from six SIV-infected macaques (day 14 post inoculation) were sorted in two groups according to CCR2 expression.

Dermal fibroblasts respond to interleukin-4 and 13 and promote T-cell recruitment in atopic dermatitis

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by type 2 immune responses. While immune cells and keratinocytes are established contributors to AD pathogenesis, the role of dermal fibroblasts remains less defined. Here, we investigated whether fibroblasts contribute to T cell recruitment by producing chemokines in response to type 2 cytokines. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of human AD skin and murine models, including IL-4 receptor-deficient mice, revealed transcriptionally distinct fibroblast clusters, with IL-4Rα-dependent populations expressing high levels of chemokines. In vitro, IL-4/IL-13 synergized with inflammatory cytokines(Inf; TNFa + IL-17A + IL-1b) to induce fibroblast expression of CCR3 ligands, including Ccl8. Conditioned media from stimulated fibroblasts promoted T cell migration in a CCR3-dependent manner. Furthermore, pharmacologic inhibition of CCR3 reduced T cell infiltration and skin inflammation in two AD mouse models. These findings demonstrate that dermal fibroblasts are not passive structural cells but active participants in type 2 inflammation, contributing to the pathogenesis of AD by producing chemokines that facilitate T cell recruitment. Targeting the fibroblast–CCR3 axis may represent a novel therapeutic strategy for AD.

CCR1 and CCR2 co-expression on monocytes is non-redundant and delineates a distinct monocyte subpopulation. [scRNA-Seq]

Project description:The interactions between chemokines and their receptors, particularly in the context of inflammation, are complex with individual receptors binding multiple ligands and individual ligands interacting with multiple receptors. In addition, there are numerous reports of simultaneous co-expression of multiple inflammatory chemokine receptors on individual inflammatory leukocyte subtypes. Overall, this has previously been interpreted as redundancy and proposed as a protective mechanism to ensure that the inflammatory response is robust. In contrast we have hypothesised that the system is not redundant but exquisitely subtle. Our interests relate to the receptors CCR1, CCR2, CCR3 and CCR5 which, together, regulate non-neutrophilic myeloid cell recruitment to inflammatory sites. Here we demonstrate that, whilst most murine monocytes exclusively express CCR2, there is a small subpopulation, which is expanded during inflammation, which co-expresses CCR1 and CCR2. Combinations of transcript and functional analysis demonstrate that this is not redundant expression and that co-expression of CCR1 and CCR2 marks a phenotypically distinct population of monocytes characterised by expression of genes otherwise typically associated with neutrophils. Single cell RNA sequencing confirms this as a monodisperse population of atypical monocytes. This monocytic population has been previously described as having immunosuppressive activity. Overall, our data confirm combinatorial chemokine receptor expression by a subpopulation of monocytes but demonstrate that this is not redundant expression and marks a discrete monocytic population.

Proteomic Response to Copper-Induced Stress and Recovery in the Colonial Tunicate Botryllus schlosseri

Project description:The study investigated the proteomic response of the colonial tunicate Botryllus schlosseri to acute copper exposure and subsequent recovery. DIA analysis was performed on Botryllus schlosseri colonies exposed to copper concentrations of 0 µg/L (control, C0), 300 µg/L (C3), and 900 µg/L (C4) for 24 hours (Exposure phase, E). To assess recovery (R), a subset of colonies from each condition was transferred to clean seawater for an additional 24 hours. Each condition included 11 biological replicates, collected by pooling ≥15 zooids per sample (including vascular network and ampullae).
