Project description:Dysregulated TLR7 signaling drives anemia via development of unique hemophagocyte

Project description:The debilitating autoimmune disease Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is closely associated with Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 and type I interferon (IFN) activity in humans and in murine SLE-like disease. Two central manifestations of SLE affect the myeloid lineage of the immune system, myeloid expansion and anemia. Yet, whether these symptoms are linked and the role of TLR7 and/or type I IFN in these processes is unclear. Here we show that TLR7 signaling promotes cell-autonomous, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)- and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-dependent macrophage development from the common myeloid progenitor (CMP). Strikingly, this TLR7-driven macrophage development requires and is enhanced by type I IFN. Genome-wide transcriptional profiling and functional studies demonstrated that TLR7 promoted the expression of Spic, the master regulator of splenic red pulp macrophages (RPM) and preferential development of hemophagocytic RPM-like cells from CMP in vitro. We found increased incidence of RPM-like cells in vivo in a mouse model of SLE caused by TLR7 overexpression, which correlated with decreased red blood cell (RBC) count and anemia. These findings demonstrate a mechanism by which TLR7 signaling promotes anemia that is of clinical significance in SLE, other rheumatological diseases and chronic viral infections. This work also identifies a previously unknown molecular pathway by which TLR signaling and type I IFN synergize to promote myeloid development from hematopoietic progenitors. CMP were sorted from the bone marrow of wild-type C57BL/6 mice, cultured with SCF+R848 or SCFr+MCSF, and CD11b+F4/80+ macrophages sorted after 5 days, n=3 per group

Project description:We have defined a novel population of monocyte-derived hemophagocytes (inflammatory hemophagocytes (iHPC)) found in situations of inflammation, such as TLR7.1 mice that overexpress TLR7. These iHPC are similar yet distinct from red pulp macrophages (RPM) and differentiate in response to chronic TLR7 signals. In vivo, iHPC phagocytose red blood cells and platelets causing anemia and thrombocytopenia. We performed this study to further understand iHPC and their relationship to RPM and monocytes and determine what gene signatures make them unique.

Project description:Loss-of-function mutations in the lysosomal nucleoside transporter SLC29A3 lead to the accumulation of nucleosides in lysosomes and result in histiocytosis, characterized by the excessive accumulation of phagocytes in multiple organs. However, the underlying mechanism by which lysosomal nucleoside storage drives histiocytosis remains poorly understood. Herein, we provide evidence that histiocytosis in Slc29a3–/– mice is dependent on Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), which senses a combination of guanosines and oligoribonucleotides. TLR7 increased phagocyte populations by driving the proliferation of immature Ly6C high splenic macrophages and their subsequent maturation into Ly6C low phagocytes in Slc29a3–/– mice. Interestingly, TLR7 activation in nucleoside-laden splenic macrophages failed to induce inflammatory responses. Our data demonstrate that TLR7 responses to lysosomal nucleoside stress drive unique immune responses distinct from inflammation in SLC29A3-related disorders.

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:Hyperactive TLR7 signaling has long been appreciated as a driver of autoimmune disease in mouse models by breaking tolerance to self-nucleic acids1-5. Recently, the first monogenic mutations within TLR7 or its associated regulator Unc93b16,7 have been identified as causative agents of human lupus. The unifying feature of these mutations is TLR7 gain-of-function resulting from increased ligand binding. TLR7 is an intracellular transmembrane receptor, localized to late endosomes, that senses RNA breakdown products within these hydrolytic compartments8,9. Hence, its function depends on a complex interplay between specialized organelles, transport mechanisms and membrane interactions. Whether perturbations of any of these endosome-related processes can give rise to TLR7 gain-of-function and facilitate self-reactivity has not been investigated. Here we show that a dysregulated endosomal compartment can result in TLR7 gain-of-function and lupus disease in humans. Mechanistically, the late endosomal protein complex BORC-Arl8b controls TLR7 protein levels by mediating the receptor's final sorting step towards lysosomal degradation. A direct interaction between Arl8b and Unc93b1 is required to regulate the turnover of TLR7. We identified an amino acid insertion in Unc93b1 in a patient with childhood-onset lupus, which results in loss of interaction with the BORC-Arl8b complex and an accumulation of functional TLR7. Our results highlight the importance of an intact endomembrane system to prevent autoimmune disease. Disrupting the proper progression of TLR7 through its endocytic life cycle is sufficient to break immunological tolerance to nucleic acids. Our work expands the repertoire of cellular mechanisms important to restrict pathological TLR7 activity. Identifying and stratifying lupus patients based on a TLR7-driven pathology opens the way for precision medicine specifically targeting TLR7.

Project description:UNC93B1 is critical for trafficking and function of nucleic acid-sensing Toll-like receptors (TLRs) TLR3, TLR7, TLR8, and TLR9, which are essential for antiviral immunity. Overactive TLR7 signaling induced by recognition of self-nucleic acids has been implicated in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Here, we report UNC93B1 variants (E92G and R336L) in four patients with early-onset SLE. Patient cells or mouse macrophages carrying the UNC93B1 variants produced high amounts of TNF-α and IL-6 and upon stimulation with TLR7/TLR8 agonist, but not with TLR3 or TLR9 agonists. E92G causes UNC93B1 protein instability and reduced interaction with TLR7, leading to selective TLR7 hyperactivation with constitutive type I IFN signaling. Thus, UNC93B1 regulates TLR subtype-specific mechanisms of ligand recognition. Our findings establish a pivotal role for UNC93B1 in TLR7-dependent autoimmunity and highlight the therapeutic potential of targeting TLR7 in SLE.
