Project description:Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is a life-threatening cytokine storm syndrome complicating systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) and driven by IFN-gamma. SJIA and MAS are also associated with an unexplained emerging inflammatory lung disease (SJIA-LD), with our recent work supporting pulmonary activation of IFN-gamma pathways as a pathologic link between SJIA-LD and MAS. Our objective was to mechanistically define the novel observation of pulmonary inflammation in the TLR9 mouse model of MAS. In acute MAS, lungs exhibit mild but diffuse CD4-predominant, perivascular interstitial inflammation with elevated IFN-gamma, IFN-induced chemokines, and alveolar macrophage expression of IFN-gamma-induced genes. Single-cell RNA-sequencing confirmed IFN-driven transcriptional changes across immune and parenchymal lung cell types. Resolution of MAS was associated with increased alveolar macrophage and interstitial lymphocytic infiltration. alveolar macrophage microarrays confirmed IFN-gamma-induced proinflammatory polarization during acute MAS, which switches towards an anti-inflammatory phenotype during MAS resolution. Interestingly, recurrent MAS led to increased alveolar inflammation and lung injury, and reset alveolar macrophagepolarization towards a proinflammatory state. Furthermore, in mice bearing macrophages insensitive to IFN-gamma, both systemic feature of MAS and pulmonary inflammation were attenuated. These findings demonstrate that experimental MAS induces IFN-gamma-driven pulmonary inflammation replicating key features of SJIA-LD, and provides a model system for testing novel treatments directed towards SJIA-LD.

Project description: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. WT (n=8) and Bach2KO (n=3) AMs. One expreriment was performed.

Project description:we studied the role of exosomes isolated from M.tb infected macrophages in modulating the macrophage response to IFN-γ. Nimblegen microarray gene expression studies were used to compare the suppression of IFN-γ inducible genes by exosomes relative to the virulent strain of M.tuberculosis. Overall our study suggest that exosomes, as carriers of M.tb pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), may provide a mechanistic link by which M.tb may exert its suppression of host immune response beyond the infected cell, and implies a physiological role for exosomes in immune surveillance of TB. Macrophages were treated with exosomes, infected with M.tb H37Rv or left untreated for 18 hours followed by +/- IFN-γ for an additional 18 hours. Cells were harvested and RNA was isolated and converted to double stranded cDNA and subsequently labeled and hybridized onto Mus musculus 4×72 Nimblegen microarray using Nimblegen Hybridization system 4 according to manufacturer’s instructions (Roche)

Project description:Macrophages are major effector cells and antigen presenting cells of the innate immune system and classical activation of macrophage function requires interferon–γ (IFN-γ) pretreatment (priming) and TLR stimuli, which promotes inflammatory responses though high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and lower level of the anti-inflammatory cytokines, resulting in microbicidal and tumoricidal effect. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of IFN-γ priming remains elusive. In this study, we explored the effect of IFN-γ on macrophages at miRNA level and discovered that miR-3473b, which was down-regulated after IFN-γ priming, could attenuate the priming effect of IFN-γ. Molecular study revealed that miR-3473b promoted Akt/GSK3 signaling and IL-10 production through directly targeting PTEN to suppress inflammatory response and tumor-suppressing capability of macrophages. In summary, our data demonstrate that IFN-γ beef up macrophage inflammatory response and tumor suppressing capacity by limiting miR-3473b-mediated PTEN suppression. Our work identified an IFN-γ/miR-3473b/Akt axis in the regulation of macrophage function and activation. the assay was performed with 5 μg total RNA samples from both normal BMM (labeled by Cy3) and BMM primed by IFN-γ (100U/ml) for 4 h(labeled by Cy5), normal BMM serves as control.

Project description:Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) confers high risk for macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), a life-threatening episode of hyperinflammation driven by IFN-γ. Monocytes in SJIA display IFN-γhyperresponsiveness, but the molecular basis of this remains unclear. The objective of this study is to identify monocyte and macrophage polarization phenotypes including features of interferon response. Bulk RNA-seq of purified SJIA monocytes revealed marked transcriptional changes in patients with elevated ferritin levels. We identified substantial overlap with multiple polarization states but little evidence of IFN-induced signature. Interestingly, among the most highly upregulated genes was tripartite motif containing 8 (TRIM8), a positive regulator of IFN-γ signaling. Single cell RNA-seq of bone marrow macrophages (BMM) from a patient with SJIA and early MAS identified a distinct subpopulation of BMM with altered transcriptomes consistent with hemophagocytes, including upregulated IFN-γ response pathways. These BMM also showed significantly increased expression of TRIM8. In vitro knock-down of TRIM8 in macrophages caused significant reductions in IFN-γ responsiveness. In conclusions, we identify a clear IFN-γ response phenotype in BMM during MAS. TRIM8 is upregulated in both monocytes and macrophages in SJIA, and required for macrophage IFN-γ response in vitro, providing a molecular mechanism and novel therapeutic for monocyte hyperresponsiveness to IFN-.

Project description:Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is a life-threatening complication of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA), and increasingly reported in association with severe lung disease (SJIA-LD) of unknown etiology. This study mechanistically defines the novel observation of pulmonary inflammation in the TLR9 mouse model of MAS that recapitulate key features of SJIA-LD, including IFNg activation. In acute MAS, lungs exhibit a mild but diffuse lymphocyte-predominant perivascular, interstitial inflammation with elevated IFNg, IFN-induced chemokines, and alveolar macrophage (AMf) expression of IFNg-induced genes. However, MAS resolution demonstrated AMf expansion and increased interstitial inflammation. AMf microarrays confirmed IFNg-induced proinflammatory polarization during acute MAS, which switches towards anti-inflammatory phenotype during MAS resolution. Interestingly, recurrent MAS increased alveolar inflammation, and reset polarization towards a pro-inflammatory state. Furthermore, in mice bearing macrophages insensitive to IFNg, both systemic feature of MAS and pulmonary inflammation were markedly attenuated. These findings demonstrate experimental MAS induces IFNg-driven pulmonary inflammation, and define this system for further study of and treatment validation in SJIA-LD. We used microarrays to study whole transcriptome analysis of alveolar macrophages in the TLR9 mouse model of MAS during both acute MAS and MAS resolution.
