Identity, ontogeny, and age-related changes in splenic white pulp macrophages in mouse and human spleen [XX_Mouse_GEO]

ABSTRACT: The spleen contains diverse macrophage subsets that remove aged erythrocytes, prevent the dissemination of circulating pathogens, and shape the adaptive immune response1–3. The mouse spleen hosts red pulp macrophages (RPM), marginal zone macrophages (MZM), marginal zone metallophilic macrophages (MMM), and tingible body macrophages (TBM). However, their transcriptomic identity, ontogeny, and dynamics during aging are unknown. Furthermore, it is not known whether homologous populations of macrophages exist in the human spleen. We find that in mice, MZM and MMM are tissue-resident macrophages that maintain their population via local proliferation, while TBM are slowly replaced by circulating monocytes. Lineage tracing shows that MMM maintain the MZM pool, and that after MMM depletion, circulating monocytes restore MMM. We show that a decrease in MMM abundance in aging precedes changes in other cellular populations and splenic niches. In human spleen, we identify TBM and perifollicular zone macrophages (PFZM) as a single macrophage population homologous to MMM and MZM in mice. We show that in both mouse and human TBM become more abundant during aging. Our results suggest age-related changes in the splenic microenvironment drive changes in tissue-resident splenic macrophage populations with potential importance for the loss of immunologic function in older individuals.

Project description:Lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas and marginal zone lymphomas of nodal, extra-nodal and splenic types account for 10% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. They are similar at the cell differentiation level, sometimes making difficult to distinguish them from other indolent non-Hodgkin lymphomas. To better characterize their genetic basis, we performed array-based comparative genomic hybridization in 101 marginal zone lymphomas (46 MALT, 35 splenic and 20 nodal marginal zone lymphomas) and 13 lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas. Overall, 90.1% exhibited copy-number abnormalities. Lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas demonstrated the most complex karyotype (median=7 copy-number abnormalities), followed by MALT (4), nodal (3.5) and splenic marginal zone lymphomas (3). A comparative analysis exposed a group of copy-number abnormalities shared by several or all the entities with few disease-specific abnormalities. Gain of chromosomes 3, 12 and 18 and loss of 6q23-q24 (TNFAIP3) were identified in all entities. Losses of 13q14.3 (MIRN15A-MIRN16-1) and 17p13.3-p12 (TP53) were found in lymphoplasmacytic and splenic marginal zone lymphomas; loss of 11q21-q22 (ATM) in nodal, splenic marginal zone and lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas; loss of 7q32.1-q33 in MALT, splenic and lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas. Abnormalities affecting the NF-kB pathway were observed in 70% of MALT and lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas and 30% of splenic and nodal marginal zone lymphomas, suggesting distinct roles of this pathway in the pathogenesis/progression of these subtypes. Elucidation of the genetic alterations contributing to the pathogenesis of these lymphomas may guide to design specific therapeutic approaches. One hundred fourteen patients were included in this study: 46 MALT lymphomas (22 pulmonary, 11 salivary glands, 7 lacrimal glands and 6 gastrointestinal), 35 splenic marginal zone lymphomas, 20 nodal marginal zone lymphomas and 13 non-Waldenström’s Macroglobulinemia lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas. All cases were reviewed prior to study on paraffin sections with immunohistochemistry. Sections of each frozen tissue used for study were also reviewed by histological examination and immunohistochemistry before was submitted for the study.
