Project description:Monocytes comprise two major subsets, Ly6Chi classical monocytes and Ly6Clo non-classical monocytes. Notch2 signaling in Ly6Chi monocytes triggers transition to Ly6Clo monocytes, which require Nr4a1, Bcl6, Irf2 and Cebpb. By comparison, less is known about transcriptional requirements for Ly6Chi monocytes. We find transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPα) is highly expressed in Ly6Chi monocytes, but down-regulated in Ly6Clo monocytes. A few previous studies described the requirement of C/EBPα in the development of neutrophils and eosinophils. However, role of C/EBPα for in vivo monocyte development has not been understood. We deleted the Cebpa +37 kb enhancer in mice, eliminating hematopoietic expression of C/EBPα, reproducing the expected neutrophil defect. Surprisingly, we also discovered a severe and selective loss of Ly6Chi monocytes, while preserving Ly6Clo monocytes. We find that BM progenitors from Cebpa +37–/– mice rapidly progress through the cMoP stage to develop directly into Ly6Clo monocytes even in the absence of Notch2 signaling. These results identify a previously unrecognized role for C/EBPα in maintaining Ly6Chi monocyte identity.

Project description:Ly6Clo monocytes are a myeloid subset that specializes in the surveillance of vascular endothelium. Ly6Clo monocytes have been shown to derive from Ly6Chi monocytes. Notch2 signaling has been implicated as a trigger for Ly6Clo monocyte development, but the basis for this effect is unclear. Here, we examined the impact of Notch2 signaling of myeloid progenitors on the development of Ly6Clo monocytes in vitro. Notch2 signaling induced by delta-like ligand 1 (DLL1) efficiently induced the transition of Ly6Chi TremL4– monocytes into Ly6Clo TremL4+ monocytes. We further discovered two additional transcriptional requirements for development of Ly6Clo monocytes. Deletion of Bcl6 from myeloid progenitors abrogated development of Ly6Clo monocyte development. IRF2 was also required for Ly6Clo monocyte development in a cell-intrinsic manner. DLL1-induced in vitro transition into Ly6Clo TremL4+ monocytes required IRF2 but unexpectedly could occur in the absence of Nur77 or Bcl6. These results imply a transcriptional hierarchy for these factors in controlling Ly6Clo monocyte development.

Project description:We performed a single-cell transcriptomic analysis of monocyte and monocyte progenitors by single-cell mRNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) using the C1 Fluidigm platform. We sorted BM cMoPs (Lin−CD117+CD115+CD135−Ly6C+), BM Ly6C+ monocytes (Lin−CD117-CD115+CD135−Ly6C+) and blood Ly6Chi monocytes (CD115+CD11b+Ly6Chi) from wild-type (WT) C57BL/6 mice by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and generated transcriptional profiles for each individual cell (n = 38 for blood Ly6Chi monocytes, n = 66 for BM cMoPs, n = 57 for BM Ly6C+ monocytes).

Project description:We studied the role of Notch2 signaling in Ly6Chi monocyte cell fate during TLR7-induced acute inflammation. To characterize the gene expression changes involved in monocyte differentiation, we subjected monocyte subsets from peripheral blood of wt and myeloid Notch2 mutant mice after Sham or IMQ treatment to RNA-sequencing and gene expression analysis. We found that Cell-intrinsic Notch2 and TLR7-Myd88 pathways independently and synergistically promote Ly6Clo patrolling monocyte development from Ly6Chi monocytes under inflammatory conditions. At the same time TLR7 stimulation in the absence of functional Notch2 signaling promotes resident tissue macrophage gene expression signatures in monocytes and ectopic differentiation of Ly6Chi monocytes into macrophages and dendritic cells. Thus, Notch2 is a master regulator of Ly6Chi monocyte cell fate and inflammation in response to TLR signaling.

Project description:Monocytes are integral cells of the innate immune system that play important roles in host defence and tissue repair. It is well established that monocytes are derived from the common monocyte progenitor (cMoP) in the bone marrow (BM) before giving rise to Ly6Chi mature monocytes that enter the circulation. However, our lab has discovered that BM Ly6Chi monocytes are not homogenous, and consist of two subpopulations (CXCR4hi and CXCR4lo) in both mice and humans. In particular, the CXCR4hi subset (termed transitional pre-monocyte (TpMo) population) actively proliferates in the BM and matures into the CXCR4lo subset, which represents mature Ly6Chi monocytes. Nevertheless, how this TpMo population may behave beyond their precursor role in the BM remains undefined. While TpMos have been shown to be strictly immobilized in the BM in the steady state, our preliminary data revealed the mobilization of TpMos into the circulation during sepsis. Furthermore, TpMos were found to give rise to more macrophages than mature Ly6Chi monocytes. Our data hence suggests a critical peripheral role for TpMos that may implicate the outcome of sepsis and possible potential implications in future therapies associated with monocytes. Based on our preliminary findings, we aim to have a better understanding of these monocyte subsets and how they are transcriptionally distinct when they have become macrophages. In particular, we would like to determine if TpMo-derived macrophages are less inflammatory compared to mature monocyte-derived macrophages.

Project description:Two types of monocytes, inflammatory and patrolling, infiltrate the hearts in both human myocarditis and murine experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) model. The fates and functions of these infiltrating monocytes governing the progression of heart failure remain unclear. Here, we created parabiotic EAM and naïve mice to show that cardiac inflammation facilitate monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation. Using a combination of flow cytometry, time lapsed imaging and transmission electron microscopy, we demonstrated in vitro that cardiac fibroblasts interact with monocytes and are instrumental in facilitating monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation. Moreover, IL-17A stimulated cardiac fibroblasts completely arrested Ly6Clo monocyte proliferation and inhibited both Ly6Chi and Ly6Clo monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation both in vitro and in vivo after intracardiac injections of monocytes into the hearts. Intriguingly, IL-17A signaling through cardiac fibroblasts also significantly downregulated Mer tyrosine kinase (MerTK) expressions on Ly6Chi monocyte-derived macrophages, thus jeopardizing their phagocytic abilities. Collectively, our results implicate divergent fates and functions of heart-infiltrating monocytes influenced by cardiac fibroblasts.

Project description:Currently, it is unclear if all monocyte subsets exhibit osteoclastogenic potential. Furthermore, the role of lineage determining TFs in regulating OC differentiation on a genome-wide scale remains poorly understood. In this study, we utilized a novel Irf8 conditional knockout (Irf8 cKO) mouse model to characterize the importance of IRF8 in OC progenitor development and epigenetic regulation of OC differentiation. To identify global transcriptional program governing the osteoclastogenic potential of Ly6Chi, Ly6Cint, and Ly6C– monocytes, and how it may be further influenced by IRF8 deficiency, we performed RNA-seq on sorted Ly6Chi, Ly6Cint, and Ly6C– cells from WT and Irf8 cKO mice. Cells were analyzed prior to (BMMs) and 4 days after RANKL stimulation (OCs). Here we show that WT Ly6Chi and Ly6Cint monocytes developmentally contain OC-specific transcripts, which are augmented upon RANKL stimulation. Additionally, in the absence of IRF8, OC-specific transcripts in all three monocyte subsets are primed to robustly respond to RANKL stimulation.
