Project description:Lipocalin 24p3 (24p3) is a neutrophil secondary granule protein. 24p3 is also a siderocalin, which binds several bacterial siderophores. It was therefore proposed that synthesis and secretion of 24p3 by stimulated macrophages or release of 24p3 upon neutrophil degranulation sequesters iron-laden siderophores to attenuate bacterial growth. Accordingly, 24p3-deficient mice are susceptible to bacterial pathogens whose siderophores would normally be chelated by 24p3. Specific granule deficiency (SGD) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by complete absence of proteins in secondary granules. Neutrophils from SGD patients, who are prone to bacterial infections, lack normal functions but the potential role of 24p3 in neutrophil dysfunction in SGD is not known. Here we show that neutrophils from 24p3-deficient mice are defective in many neutrophil functions. Specifically, neutrophils in 24p3-deficient mice do not extravasate to sites of infection and are defective for chemotaxis. A transcriptome analysis revealed that genes that control cytoskeletal reorganization are selectively suppressed in 24p3-deficient neutrophils. Additionally, small regulatory RNAs (miRNAs) that control upstream regulators of cytoskeletal proteins are also increased in 24p3-deficient neutrophils. Further, 24p3-deficient neutrophils failed to phagocytose bacteria, which may account for the enhanced sensitivity of 24p3-deficient mice to both intracellular (Listeria monocytogenes) and extracellular (Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus) pathogens. Interestingly, Listeria does not secrete siderophores and additionally, the siderophore secreted by Candida is not sequestered by 24p3. Therefore, the heightened sensitivity of 24p3-deficient mice to these pathogens is not due to sequestration of siderophores limiting iron availability, but is a consequence of impaired neutrophil function. Key words: Lipocalin, 24p3, neutrophils, cell motility, chemotaxis, MIRNA-362-3p To address the role of lipocalin 2 in unstimulated and fMLP-stimulated neutrophils derived from mouse bone marrow, we performed micorarray analysis of gene expression in unstimulated wild type (N=3), unstimulated lcn2 knockout (N=3), fMLP-stimulated wild type (N=2) and fMLP-stimulated lcn2 knockout (N=2) neutrophils. Upon stimulation, neutrophils were treated by fMLP at 10 micromolar for 20 minutes at 37 centigrade.

Project description:Orchestrated recruitment of neutrophils to inflamed tissue is essential during initiation of inflammation. Inflamed areas are usually hypoxic, and adaptation to reduced oxygen pressure is typically mediated by hypoxia pathway proteins. However, it is still unclear how these factors influence the migration of neutrophils to and at the site of inflammation either during their transmigration through the blood-endothelial cell barrier, or their motility in the interstitial space. Here, we reveal that activation of the Hypoxia Inducible Factor-2 (HIF2α) due to deficiency of HIF-prolyl hydroxylase domain protein-2 (PHD2) boosts neutrophil migration specifically through highly confined microenvironments. In vivo, the increased migratory capacity of PHD2-deficient neutrophils resulted in massive tissue accumulation in acute local inflammation. Using systematic RNAseq analyses and mechanistic approaches, we identified RhoA, a cytoskeleton organizer, as the central downstream factor that mediates HIF2α-dependent neutrophil motility. Thus, we propose that the here identified novel PHD2-HIF2α-RhoA axis is vital to the initial stages of inflammation as it promotes neutrophil movement through highly confined tissue landscapes.

Project description:Neutrophil accumulation in crypt abscesses is a pathological hallmark of ulcerative colitis. Based on recent evidence that mucosal metabolic changes influence disease outcomes, we hypothesized that transmigrating neutrophils influence the transcriptional profile of intestinal epithelia. Microarray studies revealed a cohort of hypoxia-responsive genes regulated by neutrophil-epithelial crosstalk. Real-time O2 sensing indicated that transmigrating neutrophils rapidly deplete microenvironmental O2 sufficient enough to stabilize intestinal epithelial cell hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). Utilizing HIF reporter mice in a TNBS colitis model, we investigated the relative contribution of neutrophils and the respiratory burst to M-bM-^@M-^\inflammatory hypoxiaM-bM-^@M-^] in vivo. Gp91phox-null mice, which mirror human chronic granulomatous disease, developed accentuated colitis compared to control with exaggerated neutrophil infiltration and diminished inflammatory hypoxia. In conclusion, transcriptional imprinting of host tissue by infiltrating neutrophils modulates the host response to inflammation. Likewise, the respiratory burst contributes fundamentally to localized O2 depletion, resultant microenvironmental hypoxia and effective inflammatory resolution. Two models were employed, direct and indirect. The M-bM-^@M-^\DirectM-bM-^@M-^] migration model entailed establishing a chemotactic gradient (using fMLP) across monolayers of T84 intestinal epithelial cells grown on the underside of permeable supports (3um pore). Neutrophils (PMN) were induced to migrate in the physiologically relevant the physiologically relevant basolateral-to-apical direction. Following migration, T84s were rested in complete media and 2hrs later harvested for RNA isolation. In the Indirect model, PMN were applied to T84s as with the direct model. After migration, conditioned supernatants were collected, cells pelleted and supernatants filtered through 0.2um pore. Conditioned supernatants were transferred to naive T84 monolayers for 2hrs, followed by RNA harvest. Each model was exposed to neutrophils (PMN) or not. All monolayers contained chemotactic peptide fMLP on the apical side. Total of 12 samples, 4 conditions in triplicate: Direct migration without neutrophils (T84 +fMLP -PMN), Direct migration with neutrophils (T84 +fMLP +PMN), Indirect migration without neutrophils (T84 +fMLP -PMN), Indirect migration with neutrophils (T84 +fMLP +PMN)

Project description:Injury to the epithelium is integral to the pathogenesis of many inflammatory lung diseases, and epithelial repair is a critical determinant of clinical outcome. However, the signaling pathways regulating such repair are incompletely understood. Herein, we used in vitro and in vivo models to define these pathways. Human neutrophils were induced to transmigrate across monolayers of human lung epithelial cells in the physiologic basolateral-to-apical direction to a gradient of fMLP. Control wells were treated with fMLP alone. Indicated wells were pretreated with an anti-CD47 blocking antibody, which exacerbates epithelial injury. This allowed study of the neutrophil contribution not only to the initial epithelial injury, but also to its repair, as manifest by restoration of transepithelial resistance (TER) and re-epithelialization of the denuded epithelium. Microarray analysis of epithelial gene expression revealed that neutrophil transmigration activated β-catenin signaling, and this was verified by real time PCR, nuclear translocation of β-catenin, and TOPFlash reporter activity. This pathway represents a potential therapeutic target to accelerate physiologic recovery in inflammatory lung diseases. Total of 20 samples: Calu-3 cells that were untreated, treated with fMLP, treated with fMLP and neutrophil transmigration, and treated with anti-CD47 antibodies, fMLP, and neutrophil transmigration; cDNA was pooled from n=3 experiments; No biological replicates

Project description:Expression of the activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) gene is induced by Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling. In turn, ATF3 protein inhibits the expression of various TLR-driven pro-inflammatory genes. Given its counter-regulatory role in diverse innate immune responses, we defined the effects of ATF3 on neutrophilic airway inflammation in mice. ATF3 deletion was associated with increased lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-driven airway epithelia production of CXCL1, but not CXCL2, findings concordant with a consensus ATF3-binding site identified solely in the Cxcl1 promoter. Unexpectedly, ATF3-deficient mice did not exhibit increased airway neutrophilia after LPS challenge. Bone marrow chimeras revealed a specific reduction in ATF3-/- neutrophil recruitment to wild type lungs. In vitro, ATF3-/- neutrophils exhibited a profound chemotaxis defect. Global gene expression analysis identified ablated Tiam2 expression in ATF3-/- neutrophils. TIAM2 regulates cellular motility by activating Rac1-mediated focal adhesion disassembly. Notably, ATF3-/- and ATF3-sufficient TIAM2 knockdown neutrophils, both lacking TIAM2, exhibited increased focal complex area, along with excessive CD11b-mediated F-actin polymerization. Together, our data describe a dichotomous role for ATF3-mediated regulation of neutrophilic responses: inhibition of neutrophil chemokine production, but promotion of neutrophil chemotaxis. Ly6G+ neutrophils were purified by magnetic beads from WT or ATF3 KO bone marrow and RNA was immediately isolated for global gene expression using microarrays.

Project description:The bone marrow is continuously occupied by high numbers of neutrophils, and a tumor-supportive bias of these cells could significantly impact bone marrow-confined malignancies. In multiple myeloma, the bone marrow is characterized by inflammatory stromal cells with the potential to influence neutrophils. Here, we investigated myeloma-associated alterations in marrow neutrophils and the impact of stromal inflammation on neutrophil function. Mature neutrophils in myeloma marrow are activated and tumor-supportive, transcribing increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, and myeloma cell survival factors, such as the BCMA-ligand BAFF. Neutrophils were re-activated after first-line treatment, while this regimen reduced, but did not normalize, stromal inflammation. Interactions with inflammatory stroma induced neutrophil activation, including BAFF secretion, in a STAT3-dependent manner and once activated, neutrophils gained the ability to reciprocally induce stromal activation. Combined, our data define the presence of a neutrophil-stromal cell feed-forward loop driving tumor-supportive inflammation that could impact disease recurrence.
