Project description:The innate immune system functions as the first line of defense against cancer cells, particularly the detection and clearance of cancer cells by phagocytosis. The liver resident macrophages, known as Kupffer cells, have the largest population of body’s tissue resident macrophages and constitute the first line of defense against cancer cells invading the liver. However, the molecule mechanisms underlying the detection and phagocytosis of cancer cells by Kupffer cells are still unclear. Here, using in vivo genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screening, we found that Ermap expressed on cancer cells delivered the pro-phagocytosis ‘eat me’ signal to promote Kupffer cells phagocytosis and control over liver metastasis of various cancer cells. Ermap ligated Galectin-9 expressed on Kupffer cells surface in a glycosylation dependent manner. Galectin-9 further formed a bridging complex with Ermap and transmembrane receptor Dectin-2 expressed on Kupffer cells to promote the detection and phagocytosis of cancer cells by Kupffer cells. Patients with tumors expressing low ERMAP had more liver metastases. Thus, our study identifies the Ermap–Galectin-9–Dectin-2 axis as an ‘eat me’ signal for Kupffer cells to engulf cancer cells and control liver metastasis.

Project description:Invasive candidiasis, mainly caused by Candida albicans, is a serious healthcare problem with high mortality rates, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Innate immune cells express pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs) including C-type lectin-like receptors (CLRs) that bind C. albicans to initiate an immune response. Multiple CLRs including Dectin-1, Dectin-2 and Mincle have been proposed individually to contribute to the immune response to C. albicans. However how these receptors collaborate to clear a fungal infection is unknown. Herein, we used novel multi-CLR knockout (KO) mice to decipher the individual, collaborative and collective roles of Dectin-1, Dectin-2 and Mincle during systemic C. albicans infection. These studies revealed an unappreciated and profound role for CLR co-operation in anti-fungal immunity. The protective effect of multiple CLRs was markedly greater than any single receptor, and was mediated through inflammatory monocytes via recognition and phagocytosis of C. albicans, and production of C. albicans-induced cytokines and chemokines. These CLRs were dispensable for mediating similar responses from neutrophils, likely due to lower expression of these CLRs on neutrophils compared to inflammatory monocytes. Concurrent deletion of Dectin-1 and Dectin-2, or all three CLRs, resulted in dramatically increased susceptibility to systemic C. albicans infection compared to mice lacking a single CLR. Multi-CLR KO mice were unable to control fungal growth due to an inadequate early inflammatory monocyte-mediated response. In response to excessive fungal growth, the multi-CLR KO mice mounted a hyper-inflammatory response, likely leading to multiple organ failure. Thus, these data reveal a critical role for CLR co-operation in the effective control of C. albicans and maintenance of organ function during infection.

Project description:Kupffer cells have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various liver diseases. However, their involvement in metabolic disorders of the liver, including fatty liver disease, remains unclear. The present study sought to determine the impact of Kupffer cells on hepatic triglyceride storage and to explore the possible mechanisms involved. To that end, C57Bl/6 mice rendered obese and steatotic by chronic high-fat feeding were treated for 1 week with clodronate liposomes, which cause depletion of Kupffer cells. Loss of expression of marker genes Cd68, F4/80, and Clec4f, and loss of Cd68 immunostaining verified almost complete removal of Kupffer cells from the liver. Also, expression of complement components C1, the chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 6 (Ccl6), and cytokines interleukin-15 (IL-15) and IL-1beta were markedly reduced. Importantly, Kupffer cell depletion significantly decreased liver triglyceride and glucosylceramide levels concurrent with increased expression of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha), carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (Cpt1alpha), and fatty acid transport protein 2 (Fatp2). Treatment of mice with IL-1beta decreased expression of PPARalpha and its target genes, which was confirmed in primary hepatocytes. Consistent with these data, IL-1beta suppressed human and mouse PPARalpha promoter activity. Suppression of PPARalpha promoter activity was recapitulated by overexpression of nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) subunit p50 and p65, and was abolished upon deletion of putative NF-kappaB binding sites. Finally, IL-1beta and NF-kappaB interfered with the ability of PPARalpha to activate gene transcription. CONCLUSION: Our data point toward important cross-talk between Kupffer cells and hepatocytes in the regulation of hepatic triglyceride storage. The effect of Kupffer cells on liver triglycerides are at least partially mediated by IL-1beta, which suppresses PPARalpha expression and activity.

Project description:Rat mast cell line RBL-2H3 was analyzed to investigate the molecular mechanism of Dectin-1-mediated activation and responses of mast cells. Dectin-1-mediated signaling stimulated characteristic gene expression, such as MCP-1, IL-4, IL-13, TNF-αand Nfkbiz. RBL-2H3 cell line stably expressing Dectin-1 was established. Non-stimulated cells (control) compared to Dectin-1-stimulated (Curdlan) cells in order to comfirm Dectin-1-mediated signaling-inducible genes. Dectin-1-stimulated cells compared to Syk inhibitor R406-pretreated cells in order to examine the importance of Syk for Dectin-1-mediated gene up-regulations.

Project description:Kupffer cells are the first line of defense in the liver against pathogens, yet several microbes successfully target the liver, bypass immune surveillance, and effectively develop in this tissue. Our current, albeit poor, understanding of Kupffer cell-pathogen interactions has been largely achieved through the study of primary cells, requiring isolation from a large numbers of animals. To facilitate the study of Kupffer cell biology, an immortalized rat Kupffer cell line, RKC1, was developed. We performed a comparative global proteomic analysis of RKC1 and primary rat Kupffer cells (PRKC) to characterize their respective responses to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated immune stimulation. We identified patent differences in the proteomic response profile of RKC1 and PRKC to LPS. We observed that PRKC upregulated more immune function pathways and exhibited marked changes in cellular morphology following stimulation. We consequently analyzed the cytoskeletal signaling pathways of these cells in light of the fact that macrophages are known to induce cytoskeletal changes in response to pathogens. Our findings suggest that Kupffer cells respond differently to inflammatory stimulus than do monocyte-derived macrophages, and such data may provide insight into how pathogens, such as the malaria parasite, may have evolved mechanisms of liver entry through Kupffer cells without detection.

Project description:Apolipoprotein-B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins cause atherosclerosis. Whether the vasculature is initially responding site, or if atherogenic-dyslipidemia affects other organs simultaneously, is unknown. Here we show that the liver responds to a dyslipidemic insult based on inducible models of familial hypercholesterolemia and APOB tracing. An acute transition to atherogenic APOB-lipoprotein levels resulted in uptake by Kupffer cells and rapid accumulation of triglycerides and cholesterol in the liver. Bulk and single-cell RNA-seq revealed an Kupffer cell-specific transcriptional program that was not activated by a high-fat diet alone, or detected in standard liver function or pathological assays, even in the presence of fulminant atherosclerosis. Depletion of Kupffer cells altered the dynamic of plasma and liver lipid concentrations, indicating that these liver macrophages help restrain and buffer atherogenic lipoproteins, whilst simultaneously secreting atherosclerosis-modulating factors into plasma. Our results place Kupffer cells as key sentinels in organizing systemic responses to lipoproteins at the initiation of atherosclerosis.

Project description:Self-renewing tissue-resident macrophages are thought to be exclusively derived from embryonic progenitors. However, whether circulating monocytes can also give rise to such macrophages has not been formally investigated. Here we use a new model of diphtheria toxin-mediated depletion of liver-resident Kupffer cells to generate niche availability and show that circulating monocytes engrafted in the liver, gradually adopt the transcriptional profile of their depleted counterparts and become long-lived self-renewing cells. Underlining the physiological relevance of our findings, circulating monocytes also contribute to the expanding pool of macrophages in the liver shortly after birth, when macrophage niches become available during normal organ growth. Thus, like embryonic precursors, monocytes can and do give rise to self-renewing tissue-resident macrophages if the niche is available to them. Clec4F+ Kupffer cells were isolated and sorted from livers from adult WT mice or KC-DTR or KC-DTR littermate control mice +/- 50ng DT at indicated timepoints. 19 samples (arrays) in total. RNA was isolated, amplified with Nugene pico kit, converted to cDNA and then hybridised on Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.
