Regulation of monocyte functional heterogeneity by miR-146a

ABSTRACT: Monocytes and their lineage descendants serve as a central defense system against infection and injury but if uncontrolled can also promote an excessive pathological inflammatory response. Therefore a current research goal is to understand how the organism controls the number and function of monocytes and how these variables can be tailored in therapy. Considering the evidence that monocytes are heterogeneous and exist in at least two subsets committed to divergent functions, we investigated whether distinct factors regulate the balance between monocyte subset responses in vivo. We identified a microRNA (miRNA), miR-146a, which is differentially regulated both in mouse (Ly-6Chi and Ly-6Clo) and human (CD14hi and CD14lo CD16+) monocyte subsets. The single miRNA was found to significantly control the amplitude of the Ly-6Chi monocyte response during inflammatory challenge whereas it did not affect Ly-6Clo cells. miR-146a–mediated regulation was cell-intrinsic and depended on Relb, a member of the non-canonical NF-κB/Rel family, which is identified here as a novel miR-146a target. These observations provide novel mechanistic insights into the molecular events that regulate monocyte functional heterogeneity and identify therapeutic targets that can influence the quality and quantity of monocyte responses.

Each sample was generated by fluorecsence activated cell sorting from the pooled spleens of 10 mice.

Identification of miR-146a target genes in mouse monocyte subsets

Project description:To gain insight into the mechanisms underlying miR-146a-mediated modulation of Ly6Chigh monocyte function, we compared the expression profiles of Ly6Chigh and Ly6Clow monocytes in miR-146a+/+ (WT) versus miR-146a-/- (KO) conditions.

Mir-146a wild-type 3ʹ sequence identity is dispensable for proper innate immune function in vivo

Project description:A long-prevailing model has held that the “seed” region (nucleotides 2-8) of a microRNA is typically sufficient to mediate target recognition and repression. However, numerous recent studies, both within the context of defining miRNA/target pairs by direct physical association and by directly assessing this model in vivo in C. elegans have brought this model into question. To test the importance of miRNA 3' pairing in vivo, in a mammalian system, we engineered a mutant murine mir-146a allele in which the 5' half of the mature microRNA retains the sequence of the wild-type mir-146a but the 3ʹ half has been altered to be anti-complementary to the wild-type miR-146a sequence. Mice homozygous or hemizygous for this mutant allele are phenotypically indistinguishable from wild-type controls and do not recapitulate any of the immunopathology previously described for mir-146a-null mice. Our results strongly support the conclusion that 3ʹ pairing is dispensable in the context of the function of a key mammalian microRNA.

miR-146a regulates many lncRNAs in RAS induced senescence [Anti-146a]

Project description:miR-146a is a known anti-inflammatory miRNA. Intringuigly, it is overexpressed in RAS-induced senescent cells which is accompanied with a rich pro-inflammatoy secretpry phenotype. We aim to study possible sponges for miR-146a.

Data in support of Absence of miRNA-146a differentially alters microglia function and proteome

Project description:MiR-146a is an important regulator of innate inflammatory responses and is also implicated in cell death and survival. Here, we identified microglia as the main cellular source of miR-146a among mouse CNS resident cells. We further characterized the phenotype of miR-146a KO microglia cells during in vivo demyelination induced by cuprizone (CPZ) and found reduced number of CD11c+ microglia in the KO compared to WT mice. Microglia were also isolated from the brain, and the proteome was analyzed by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry.

miR-146a Pulldown-sequencing data

Project description:Human CD4+ Total memory cells (CD4+CD25-CD45RA-CCR7+/-) were activated with anti-CD3/anti-CD28 antibodies and transfected with biotinylated miR-146a mimic or biotinylated mimic negative control by Exiqon. After 24h cells were lysed and miRNA:mRNA complexes pulled-down with streptavidin agarose O/N at 4°C. RNA was then purified using TRI-reagent and RNA zymospin columns. Four independent donors were used for this experiment. Total RNA was sequenced in 2 lanes, paired ends. This experiment is assessing direct targets bound by miR-146a in human T cells.

Comparison of gene expression profiles between human and mouse monocyte subsets [mouse data]

Project description:Human and mouse blood each contain two monocyte subsets. Here, we investigated the extent of their similarity using a microarray approach. Approximately 300 genes in human and 550 genes in mouse were differentially expressed between subsets. More than 130 of these gene expression differences were conserved between mouse and human monocyte subsets. We confirmed numerous differences at the cell surface protein level. Despite overall conservation, some molecules were conversely expressed between the two species’ subsets, including CD36, CD9, and TREM-1. Furthermore, other differences existed, including a prominent PPARγ signature in mouse monocytes absent in human. Overall, human and mouse monocyte subsets are far more broadly conserved than currently recognized. Thus, studies in mice may indeed yield relevant information regarding the biology of human monocyte subsets. However, differences between the species deserve consideration in models of human disease studied in the mouse. 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 4 separate times for 4 biological replicates. The two major monocyte subsets (CD16- and CD16+) were isolated from venous heparinized blood from apparently healthy human volunteers using MACS technology with all reagents and tools from Miltenyi Biotec. Three separate donors were hybridized three different times to Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 array.
