Unbiased assessment of 2-Arachidonoylglycerol in cardiovascular inflammation and myocardial remodeling

ABSTRACT: 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) is an endogenous modulator of inflammatory processes and ligand for the endocannabinoid system. Recent scientific investigations accumulated evidences for its key role in inflammatory cardiovascular diseases, like atherosclerosis and left ventricular remodeling. However, molecular mechanisms set in motion by 2-AG are still poorly understood and its role in cardiovascular inflammation is the matter of controversial debate. Yet, there is a dramatic need to understand local effects of 2-AG at the site of heart inflammation, and tissue injury and reconstruction to develop novel therapeutic strategies which modulate both processes for the better and a fast recovery. Myeloid cells, like tissue-resident macrophages and monocytes are central mediators of inflammatory processes and mediate cardiac adverse remodelling after an insult by myocardial infarction, myocarditis or chronic hypertension. In this study, we investigated the impact of 2-AG on the transcriptional programming of peripheral monocytes as model system for resident macrophages in heart tissue or monocytes which are recruited to the site of cardiac tissue remodelling. Data of RNA sequencing analysis and quantification cytokine expression we seeked to clarify the question, if 2-AG induces rather an inflammatory or a wound healing phenotype of monocytes recruited to the site of cardiac tissue injury.

Resident and recruited macrophages differentially contribute to cardiac healing after myocardial ischemia [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Cardiac macrophages are heterogenous in phenotype and functions, which has been associated with differences in their ontogeny. Despite extensive research, our understanding of the precise role of different subsets of macrophages in ischemia/reperfusion injury remains incomplete. We here investigated macrophage lineages and ablated tissue macrophages in homeostasis and after I/R injury in a CSF1R-dependent manner. Genomic deletion of a fms-intronic regulatory element (FIRE) in the Csf1r locus resulted in specific absence of resident homeostatic and antigen-presenting macrophages, without affecting the recruitment of monocyte-derived macrophages to the infarcted heart. Specific absence of homeostatic, monocyte-independent macrophages altered the immune cell crosstalk in response to injury and induced proinflammatory neutrophil polarization, resulting in impaired cardiac remodelling without influencing infarct size. In contrast, continuous CSF1R inhibition led to depletion of both resident and recruited macrophage populations. This augmented adverse remodelling after I/R and led to an increased infarct size and deterioration of cardiac function. In summary, resident macrophages orchestrate inflammatory responses improving cardiac remodelling, while recruited macrophages determine infarct size after I/R injury. These findings attribute distinct beneficial effects to different macrophage populations in the context of myocardial infarction.

Hybrid hydrogel–extracellular matrix scaffolds identify biochemical and mechanical signatures of cardiac ageing

Project description:Extracellular matrix remodelling of cardiac tissue is a key contributor to age-related cardiovascular disease and dysfunction. Such remodelling is multifaceted including changes to the biochemical composition, architecture and mechanics, clouding our understanding of how and which extracellular matrix properties contribute to a dysfunctional state. Here we describe a decellularized extracellular matrix-synthetic hydrogel hybrid scaffold that independently confers two distinct matrix properties-ligand presentation and stiffness-to cultured cells in vitro, allowing for the identification of their specific roles in cardiac ageing. The hybrid scaffold maintains native matrix composition and organization of young or aged murine cardiac tissue, whereas its mechanical properties can be independently tuned to mimic young or aged tissue stiffness. Seeding these scaffolds with murine primary cardiac fibroblasts, we identify distinct age- and matrix-dependent mechanisms of cardiac fibroblast activation, matrix remodelling and senescence. Importantly, we show that the ligand presentation of a young extracellular matrix can outweigh the profibrotic stiffness cues typically present in an aged extracellular matrix in maintaining or driving cardiac fibroblast quiescence. Ultimately, these tunable scaffolds can enable the discovery of specific extracellular targets to prevent ageing dysfunction and promote rejuvenation.

Self-renewing resident cardiac macrophages limit adverse remodeling following myocardial infarction

Project description:Mononuclear phagocytes promote injury and repair following myocardial infarction but discriminating functions within mixed populations remains challenging. We utilized fate mapping and single cell RNA-sequencing to delineate fate specification trajectories of heterogeneous cardiac macrophage subpopulations. In steady state, TIMD4 expression tracked with a dominant resident cardiac macrophage subset that persisted via in situ self-renewal with minimal monocyte input. Following ischemic injury, monocytes displayed significant plasticity, ultimately adopting transcriptional states similar to resident macrophages, but also multiple unique states. Ischemic injury reduced resident macrophage abundance within infarct tissue, and despite transcriptional similarity, TIMD4 expression distinguished resident from recruited macrophages. Specific lineage-based depletion of resident cardiac macrophages resulted in depressed cardiac function and adverse remodeling primarily within the peri-infarct zone, the only region of the myocardium where resident macrophages expanded numerically following injury. Together, these data highlight a non-redundant, cardioprotective role of resident cardiac macrophages, and the diverse transcriptional fates recruited monocytes can adopt.

Transcriptomic Profiling of Scleroderma Monocytes Reveals Links with Cardiovascular Complications, Implicating Notch and Interferon Pathways

Project description:Objectives: Recent research has highlighted the critical role of monocytes and macrophages in driving both inflammatory and fibrotic processes in systemic sclerosis (SSc). This study seeks to elucidate the gene expression profiles of SSc monocytes and their potential links to disease complications, with the ultimate goal of uncovering novel therapeutic targets. Methods: 48 SSc patients and 15 controls were recruited and monocytes were isolated using CD14+ magnetic beads. Total RNA was extracted and bulk RNA-seq analysis was performed. Differential gene expression followed by unsupervised hierarchical clustering and pathway analysis were conducted and correlations with clinical features were analyzed. Interferon signature score (IFN6) was calculated using the log transformed values of 6 genes (IFIT3, IFIT2, MX1, IFIH1, STAT2, and NCF1). Results: We identified four distinct patient subgroups, relative to normal, two with inflammatory and two with non-inflammatory gene profiles. The inflammatory subgroups exhibited high expression of interferon-related genes and included all SSc patients with pulmonary hypertension and most with cardiac involvement. In these patients, IFN6 was markedly elevated and showed a significant correlation with global longitudinal strain - GLS (r=-0.5, p=0.006), a key indicator of cardiac function. Furthermore, pathway analysis identified an enrichment of the Notch signaling pathway among genes whose overexpression correlated with impaired GLS. Conclusion: These findings unveil a potential new mechanistic link between interferon activity, Notch signaling, and cardiac complications in SSc, offering new insights into disease pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets.

Expression Data From HCMV-Infected Human Monocytes: Role of EGFR

Project description:Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) induces pro-inflammatory monocytes following infection and we have evidence that EGFR is a key mediator in this early activation. To begin to address how this signalling pathway is responsible for the rapid activation of infected monocytes, we examined the role this pathway played in the transcriptome of infected monocytes. Global transcriptional profiling using cDNA microarrays revealed a significant number of genes, including inflammatory genes, were regulated in a EGFR-dependent manner, identifying this pathway as a key cellular control point in the conversion of monocytes to an activated pro-inflammatory state following HCMV infection. Keywords: Disease state To begin to globally define how EGFR is involved in the HCMV-induced changes in monocyte function, we performed a transcriptome analysis in the presence of inhibitors to the EGFR signalling pathway. Specifically, a cDNA microarray containing 12,625 unique probe sets was utilized to assess the modulation of the monocyte transcriptome at 24 hours post infection in the presence of blocking anti-EGFR antibody and pharmacological agent AG1478 (AG; an EGFR inhibitor). A total of 4 replicates from mock-infected, HCMV-infected, anti-EGFR antibody-pretreated infected and AG-pretreated infected monocytes were analyzed in this study.

Comparison of F4/80 high and low peritoneal macrophages in H.polygyrus - Salmonella Typhimurium co-infected mice

Project description:Macrophages are involved in many different biological processes (e.g. tissue homeostasis, embryonic development, immune defence against invading pathogens). To be able to deal with these different tasks macrophages adopt distinct activation phenotypes tailored to the situation. However, macrophages show a remarkable degree of plasticity and can change their activation phenotype in response to new environmental triggers. Macrophages recruited to the site of infection can be derived from two main sources, blood monocytes and tissue resident macrophages. Of note, different types of pathogens lead to the accumulation of different types of macrophages. Thus, we have asked here whether helminth expanded, tissue resident derived macrophages will change their activation phenotype in vivo in response to consecutive bacterial co-infection.types of macrophages.

Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells Engineered with IL-10 and Antigen Control Pathogenic T Cell Responses and Promote Type 1 T Regulatory Cells

Project description:Dendritic cells (DC) play a critical role in the maintenance of tissue homeostasis and in promoting tolerance, thus acting as regulatory cells. Tolerogenic DC (tolDC) represent the cells of choice to fulfill the goal of restoring antigen (Ag)-specific tolerance since they can dampen Ag-specific T cell responses, induce pathogenic T cell exhaustion, and Ag-specific regulatory T cells. Here we efficiently generate tolDC by genetic engineering of monocytes with bidirectional lentiviral vectors co-encoding for immunodominant Ag-derived peptides (Ovalbumin or Matrix Protein 1, Insulin and Gliadin) in combination with IL-10 (DCIL-10/Ag). DCIL-10/Ag secrete high amounts of IL_x0002_10 in the absence of pro-inflammatory cytokines and efficiently modulate Ag-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell activation and proliferation in vitro in healthy subjects and Celiac Disease patients. DCIL-10/Ag promote Ag-specific CD49b+LAG-3 + T cells, which display the type 1 T regulatory (Tr1) cell gene signature in vitro. In vivo administration of DCIL-10/Ag promote Ag-specific Tr1 cells and prevent type 1 diabetes development in two murine models of disease. In conclusion, we generate an innovative approach based on the use of autologous engineered DC, which effectively modulate pathogenic CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses in vitro and in vivo by promoting Ag_x0002_specific Tr1 cells suitable for cell-based therapy for restoring tolerance in T cell mediated diseases

WWP2 regulates Ly6Chigh monocyte infiltration and activity in heart fibrosis

Project description:Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) can cause left ventricular dysfunction through interstitial fibrosis, which corresponds to the failure of cardiac remodelling. Recent evidence implicates monocytes/macrophages modulating cardiac fibrosis but targeting these is convoluted, giving their tissue heterogeneity and the antagonizing roles of macrophage subtypes in fibrosis. Here we focus on the role of WWP2, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that acts as a positive genetic regulator of human and murine cardiac fibrosis, and show that its myeloid-specific deletion reduces cardiac fibrosis in hypertension-induced NICM. Using the same model, we establish the functional heterogeneity of macrophages and define an early pro-fibrogenic phase driven by Ccl5-expressing Ly6chigh monocytes. Among other cardiac macrophage subtypes, WWP2 dysfunction primarily affects the Ccl5-dependent infiltration and activation of Ly6chigh monocytes, which causes reduced myofibroblast trans-differentiation. WWP2 interacts with IRF7, promoting its non-degradative monoubiquitination, nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity, including upstream Ccl5. Thus, we identify WWP2 as a key regulator of IRF7-mediated Ccl5/Ly6chigh monocyte axis in heart fibrosis.
