Transcription repressor Bach2 is required for pulmonary surfactant homeostasis and alveolar macrophage function.

ABSTRACT: Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) results from a dysfunction of alveolar macrophages (AMs), chiefly due to disruptions in the signaling of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). We found that mice deficient for the B lymphoid transcription repressor BTB and CNC homology 2 (Bach2) developed PAP-like accumulation of surfactant proteins in the lungs. Bach2 was expressed in AMs, and Bach2-deficient AMs showed alterations in lipid handling in comparison with wild-type (WT) cells. Although Bach2-deficient AMs showed a normal expression of the genes involved in the GM-CSF signaling, they showed an altered expression of the genes involved in chemotaxis, lipid metabolism, and alternative M2 macrophage activation with increased expression of Ym1 and arginase-1, and the M2 regulator Irf4. Peritoneal Bach2-deficient macrophages showed increased Ym1 expression when stimulated with interleukin-4. More eosinophils were present in the lung and peritoneal cavity of Bach2-deficient mice compared with WT mice. The PAP-like lesions in Bach2-deficient mice were relieved by WT bone marrow transplantation even after their development, confirming the hematopoietic origin of the lesions. These results indicate that Bach2 is required for the functional maturation of AMs and pulmonary homeostasis, independently of the GM-CSF signaling.

Double knockout of Bach1 and Bach2 reveals shared compensatory mechanisms in regulating alveolar macrophage function and lung surfactant homeostasis [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:Background: Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease showing excess accumulation of surfactant protein in the alveolar spaces. It chiefly results from a dysfunction of alveolar macrophages (AMs) due to a lack of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) signaling including the expression of PU.1. We previously reported that mice deficient for Bach2 developed PAP-like disease due to a defect of lipid handling by AMs. Recently, Bach1 and Bach2 have been reported to function redundantly in early B cell development. The aim of this study was to investigate the function of Bach1 and Bach2 in alveolar macrophage and lung homeostasis. Methods: We generated mice lacking both Bach1 and Bach2 (Bach1/2 DKO mice) and investigated their body weight and survival rate. Whole lungs of mice were observed with Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) stain when they were 8 or 12-13 weeks old. The expression of surface markers and the numbers of alveolar macrophages and eosinophils in BAL were analyzed by flow cytometry (FACS). We also analyzed tissue macrophages in bone marrow and spleen by FACS. We administered N-acetyl cysteine to mice from prenatal stage and observed lung pathology at 12 weeks. Result: Bach1/2 DKO mice showed a more rapid and severe PAP phenotype than Bach2-deficient mice (Bach2 KO mice), whereas Bach1-deficient mice (Bach1 KO mice) did not develop any pulmonary disease. AMs in Bach1/2 DKO mice showed a foamy appearance, suggesting a defect in lipid handling. In contrast, the numbers of bone marrow macrophages and red pulp macrophages were not affected in Bach1/2 DKO mice. The PAP-like disease in Bach1/2 DKO and Bach2 KO mice was not ameliorated by N-acetyl cysteine. Conclusion: We suggest that Bach1 and Bach2 work in a complementary manner for the normal function of AMs and the maintenance of surfactant homeostasis in the lungs. Oxidative stress may be involved in the process of PAP by inactivating Bach1 and Bach2.

Bach2 keeps homeostasis in lung by regulating inflammatory response and maintaining function of alveolar macrophage [array]

Project description:Tissue resident macrophages show their specific function to maintain homeostasis in our body. Dysfunction of alveolar macrophages (AMs), which regulate the proper amount of surfactant protein, leads to the development of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP). Here we found that inflammation ruins the function of AMs and is one of the causes of secondary PAP. Inflammation leads to the loss of specific gene expression pattern of AMs and furthermore, it leads to gain the specific gene expression pattern of other tissue resident macrophages and DC lineage. We also found the critical roles for Bach2 expressed in AMs and T cells, whose expression is induced by IFNg released from T cells. Bach2 bounds to super-enhancer regions of the inflammatory genes of the myeloid lineage and represses excess inflammation in lungs. Our results suggest that Bach2 function among several cell lineages to modify the inflammation, maintaining homeostasis in lungs.

Bach2 keeps homeostasis in lung by regulating inflammatory response and maintaining function of alveolar macrophage.

Project description:Alveolar macrophages (AMs) of Bach2 KO mice show multiple alternations in their functions including lipid metabolism. We aimed to clarify the mechanism whereby deficiency of Bach2 impairs the function of AMs and ruins the homeostasis of lungs. Now we report that some cytokines produced from Bach2-deficient T cells alter the character of AMs and expression of Bach2 is necessary for AMs to maintain the function of lipid metabolism.

Effect of depletion of KDM4D, NFIB, and MLL1 on gene expression during adipogenic differentiation of C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cells

Project description:The limited efficacy of currently approved immunotherapies in EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) underscores the need to better understand alternative mechanisms governing local immunosuppression to fuel novel therapies. Elevated surfactant and GM-CSF secretion from the transformed epithelium induces tumor-associated alveolar macrophages (TA-AM) to proliferate and support tumor growth by rewiring inflammatory functions and lipid metabolism. TA-AM properties are driven by increased GM-CSF—PPARγ signaling and inhibition of airway GM-CSF or PPARγ in TA-AMs suppresses cholesterol efflux to tumor cells, which impairs EGFR phosphorylation and restrains LUAD progression. In the absence of TA-AM metabolic support, LUAD cells compensate by increasing cholesterol synthesis, and blocking PPARγ in TA-AMs simultaneous with statin therapy further suppresses tumor progression and increases T cell effector functions. These results reveal new therapeutic combinations for immunotherapy resistant EGFR-mutant LUADs and demonstrate how such cancer cells can metabolically co-opt TA-AMs through GM-CSF—PPARγ signaling to provide nutrients that promote oncogenic signaling and growth.

Expression profile of colon crypts from WT and GMCSF-/- mice with or without DSS treatment

Project description:To discover possible molecular mechanisms mediated by GM-CSF that may be involved in regeneration of the colon epithelium after DSS-induced injury we performed whole-genome wide mRNA microchip analysis of isolated crypt epithelial cells from unchallenged and DSS-challenged WT and GM-CSF-/- mice. Total RNA was prepared from isolated crypts obtained from colons of GM-CSF deficient mice and WT littermates treated or untreated with 1.5%DSS for 6 days. Three biological replicates were performed for each experimental condition.

Macrophages heterogeneity in human atherosclerotic plaques

Project description:This study aims to characterize the transcriptional profile of Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor induced macrophages (GM-MÃ) and M-CSF macrophages (M-MÃ) and to investigate in situ a subset of genes and their products specific to each phenotype in human atherosclerosis plaques 18 RNG/MRC two-colour oligonucleotide microarrays (Le Brigand et al. 2006) were used to generate global mRNA expression profiles for GM-CSF-induced, M-CSF-induced, and peritoneal macrophages. The microarray experiments were conducted either as a common reference (peritoneal-like macrophages) design or using a direct design by hybridizing Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-induced human monocyte-derived macrophage (GM-MÃ) and CSF-induced human monocyte-derived macrophages(M-MÃ) on the same arrays

C/EBPβ regulates lipid metabolism and Pparg isoform 2 expression in alveolar macrophages

Project description:Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a syndrome characterized by accumulation of surfactant lipoproteins within the lung alveoli. Alveolar macrophages (AMs) are crucial for surfactant clearance and their differentiation depends on colony-stimulating factor 2 (CSF2) and the establishment of an AM-characteristic gene regulatory network. Here we report that the transcription factor C/EBPβ is essential for the development of the AM identity, as demonstrated by transcriptome and chromatin accessibility analysis. Furthermore, C/EBPβ-deficient AMs showed severe defects in proliferation, phagocytosis and lipid metabolism, collectively resulting in a PAP-like syndrome. Mechanistically, the long C/EBPβ protein variants LAP* and LAP together with CSF2 signaling induced expression of Pparg isoform2, but not isoform1, a molecular regulation that was also observed in other CSF2-primed macrophages. These results uncover C/EBPβ as a key regulator of AM cell fate and as the missing link between CSF2 and Pparg isoform 2 expression, thereby regulating lipid turnover in AMs.

NK cell-derived GM-CSF is critical for enhancing pathological arthritis

Project description:GM-CSF is involved in immune complex (IC)-mediated arthritis. However, little is known about what is the cellular source of GM-CSF and how it is regulated during IC-mediated inflammation. Using novel GM-CSF reporter mice, we show that NK cells produce GM-CSF during an IC-mediated model of inflammatory arthritis. NK cells promoted STIA in a GM-CSF-dependent manner, as deletion of NK cells and selective removal of GM-CSF production by NK cells abrogated disease. Furthermore, we show that myeloid cell activation by GM-CSF is restrained by induction of JAK/STAT checkpoint inhibitor cytokine-inducible SH2-containing protein, CIS. Myeloid cells from CIS-deficient mice had exaggerated responses to GM-CSF, and these mice develop exacerbated STIA. Our data suggest that tissue NK cells may amplify joint inflammation in arthritis via GM-CSF production and thus represent a novel target in IC-mediated pathology. Endogenous CIS provides a key brake on signaling through the GM-CSF receptor and strategies that boost its function may provide an alternative anti-inflammatory approach.
