Gene expression profiles of mouse monocytes deficient in the CCL2/CCR2 chemokine signaling

ABSTRACT: Gene-level transcriptome analysis of monocyte mRNA derived from mice that are genetically deficient of the Ccl2 gene or Ccr2 gene The CCL2/CCR2 chemokine axis is critical in monocytes mobilization and innate immunity. Although mice deficient in either gene manifest similar phenotype, such as reduced atherosclerosis, some biologic processes are disrupted in starkly different ways in these mice. We found in a Her2/neu driven mammary carcinoma model, the absence of Ccl2 inhibits tumor growth and prolongs survival, while genetic deletion of Ccr2 has the opposite effect. One of the postulated mechanisms is that Ccl2 and Ccr2 affect monocyte development in different manners. This experiment was designed to compare the whole transcriptome of monocytes that are deficient in either Ccl2 or Ccr2, with the hypothesis that differential development of these monocytes will manifest as differential gene expression profiles.

Transcriptome comparison between CCR2+ and CCR2- classical monocytes in SIV-infected Macaca nemestrina

Project description:Monocytes have been categorized in three main subpopulations based on CD14 and CD16 surface expression. Classical monocytes are the most abundant subset in the blood. They express a CD14+CD16-CCR2+ phenotype, which confers on them the ability to migrate to inflammatory sites by quickly responding to CCL2 signaling. Here we identified and characterized the surge and expansion of a novel monocyte subset during SIV and HIV infection. They were undistinguishable from classical monocytes regarding CD14 and CD16 expression, but did not express surface CCR2. Transcriptome analysis of sorted cells confirmed that they represent a distinct subpopulation that expresses lower levels of inflammatory cytokines and activation markers than their CCR2+ counterparts. They exhibited impaired phagocytosis and deficient chemotaxis in response to CCL2 and CCL7, besides being refractory to SIV infection. We named these cells atypical CCR2- classical (ACC) monocytes, and believe they play an important role in AIDS pathogenesis, possibly reflecting an anti-inflammatory response against the extreme immune activation observed during SIV and HIV infection. Antiretroviral therapy caused this population to decline in both macaque and human subjects, suggesting that this atypical phenotype may be induced by viral replication. Expression profiling by NanoString nCounter gene expression system. Classical monocytes (CD14++CD16-) from six SIV-infected macaques (day 14 post inoculation) were sorted in two groups according to CCR2 expression.

Phosphoproteomic Characterization of Signaling Networks Resulting from Activation of Chemokine Receptor CCR2

Project description:Leukocyte recruitment, a universal feature of tissue inflammation, is regulated by the interactions of chemokines with their G protein-coupled receptors. Activation of CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) by its cognate chemokine ligands, including CCL2, plays a central role in recruitment of monocytes in several inflammatory diseases. In this study, we used phosphoproteomics to enable unbiased characterization of the signaling network resulting from CCL2 activation of CCR2. Using data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry, both the proteome and phosphoproteome were quantified for FlpIn-HEK293T cells stably expressing CCR2, at six time points after activation with CCL2, in comparison with untreated cells. Differential expression analysis identified 699 significantly regulated phosphorylation sites located on 441 proteins. As expected, many of these proteins participate in canonical signal transduction pathways and the regulation of actin cytoskeleton dynamics, including numerous guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase activating proteins (GAPs). In addition, we identified regulated phosphorylation sites in numerous proteins that exert functions in the nucleus, including several constituents of the nuclear pore complex. This study provides an unprecedented level of detail about CCR2 signalling and identifies potential novel targets for regulation of CCR2 function.

Inhibitor of NFκB ζ (IκBζ) is a transcriptional key regulator of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2)

Project description:Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1/CCL2) is critically involved in directing the migration of blood monocytes to sites of inflammation. Consequently, excessive MCP-1 secretion has been linked to many (auto)inflammatory diseases, whereas a lack of expression severely impairs immune responsiveness. We demonstrate that the atypical inhibitor of NF-κB ζ (IκBζ), a transcriptional co-activator required for the selective expression of a subset of NF-κB target genes, is a key activator of the Ccl2 gene. IκBζ-deficient macrophages exhibited impaired secretion of MCP-1 when challenged with diverse inflammatory stimuli, such as lipopolysaccharide or peptidoglycan. These findings were reflected at the level of Ccl2 gene expression, which was tightly coupled to the presence of IκBζ. Moreover, mechanistic insights acquired by chromatin immunoprecipitation demonstrate that IκBζ is directly recruited to the proximal promoter region of the Ccl2 gene and required for histone H3K9 trimethylation. Finally, IκBζ-deficient mice showed significantly impaired MCP-1 secretion and monocyte infiltration in an experimental model of peritonitis. Together, these findings suggest a distinguished role of IκBζ in mediating the targeted recruitment of monocytes in response to local inflammatory events. Peritoneal macrophages from Wildtype and IκBζ-Knockout mice were either stimulated with 1µg/ml LPS for 4h or left untreated (triplicates each)

Mononuclear phagocytes in muscle after notexin injury in C57Bl/6, Cx3cr1-/-, Ccl2-/-,Cx3cr1-/-Ccl2-/- mice

Project description:Muscle injury triggers inflammation in which infiltrating mononuclear phagocytes are crucial for tissue regeneration. The interaction of the CCL2/CCR2 and CX3CL1/CX3CR1 chemokine axis that guides phagocyte infiltration is incompletely understood. Here, we show that CX3CR1 deficiency promotes muscle repair and rescues Ccl2-/- mice from impaired muscle regeneration as a result of altered macrophage function, not infiltration. Transcriptomic analysis of muscle mononuclear phagocytes reveals that Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is up-regulated in mice with efficient regeneration. ApoE treatment enhances phagocytosis by mononuclear phagocytes in vitro, and restores phagocytic activity and muscle regeneration in Ccl2-/- mice. Because CX3CR1 deficiency may compensate for defective CCL2-dependant monocyte recruitment by modulating ApoE-dependent macrophage phagocytic activity, targeting CX3CR1 expressed by macrophages might be a powerful therapeutic approach to improve muscle regeneration.

CCR2-dependent monocyte-derived cells restrict SARS-CoV-2 infection

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 has caused a historic pandemic of respiratory disease (COVID-19) and current evidence suggests severe disease is associated with dysregulated immunity within the respiratory tract1,2. However, the innate immune mechanisms that mediate protection during COVID-19 are not well defined. Here we characterize a mouse model of SARS-CoV-2 infection and find that early CCR2-dependent infiltration of monocytes restricts viral burden in the lung. We find that a recently developed mouse-adapted MA-SARS-CoV-2 strain, as well as the emerging B.1.351 variant, trigger an inflammatory response in the lung characterized by expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and interferon-stimulated genes. Using intravital antibody labeling, we demonstrate that MA-SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to increases in circulating monocytes and an influx of CD45+ cells into the lung parenchyma that is dominated by monocyte-derived cells. scRNA-seq analysis of lung homogenates identified a hyper-inflammatory monocyte profile. We utilize this model to demonstrate that mechanistically, CCR2 signaling promotes infiltration of classical monocytes into the lung and expansion of monocyte-derived cells. Parenchymal monocyte-derived cells appear to play a protective role against MA-SARS-CoV-2, as mice lacking CCR2 showed higher viral loads in the lungs, increased lung viral dissemination, and elevated inflammatory cytokine responses. These studies have identified a CCR2-monocyte axis that is critical for promoting viral control and restricting inflammation within the respiratory tract during SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Gene expression profiling of wild type and CCR2-/- mice post chikungunya infection

Project description:A number of inhibitors of chemokine CCL2 and its receptor CCR2 are in development and may find application for treating a range of inflammatory conditions, including autoimmune and viral arthritides. Herein we sought to determine the effect of CCR2 deficiency on arthritis caused by an arthritogenic alphavirus, Chikungunya virus. Chikungunya virus (LR2006-OPY1) was injected subcutaneously into the hind foot of either CCR2 knockout or wild-type control mice (n=4-6). At day 0 and d7 post infection, RNA from the feet was harvested, the RNA was pooled (4-6 feet per time point per mouse strain) and gene expression analysis was performed using Mouse Gene ST arrays (Affymetrix).
