Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the ensuing COVID-19 pandemic have caused ∼40 million cases and over 648,000 deaths in the United States alone. Troubling disparities in COVID-19-associated mortality emerged early, with nearly 70% of deaths confined to Black/African-American (AA) patients in some areas, yet targeted studies within this demographic are scant. Multi-omics single-cell analyses of immune profiles from airways and matching blood samples of Black/AA patients revealed low viral load, yet pronounced and persistent pulmonary neutrophilia with advanced features of cytokine release syndrome and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), including exacerbated production of IL-8, IL-1β, IL-6, and CCL3/4 along with elevated levels of neutrophil elastase and myeloperoxidase. Circulating S100A12+/IFITM2+ mature neutrophils are recruited via the IL-8/CXCR2 axis, which emerges as a potential therapeutic target to reduce pathogenic neutrophilia and constrain ARDS in severe COVID-19.

Project description:Troubling disparities in COVID-19-associated mortality emerged early, with nearly 70% of deaths confined to Black/African American (AA) patients in some areas. However, targeted studies on this vulnerable population are scarce. Here, we applied multiomics single-cell analyses of immune profiles from matching airways and blood samples of Black/AA patients during acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. Transcriptional reprogramming of infiltrating IFITM2+/S100A12+ mature neutrophils, likely recruited via the IL-8/CXCR2 axis, leads to persistent and self-sustaining pulmonary neutrophilia with advanced features of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) despite low viral load in the airways. In addition, exacerbated neutrophil production of IL-8, IL-1β, IL-6, and CCL3/4, along with elevated levels of neutrophil elastase and myeloperoxidase, were the hallmarks of transcriptionally active and pathogenic airway neutrophilia. Although our analysis was limited to Black/AA patients and was not designed as a comparative study across different ethnicities, we present an unprecedented in-depth analysis of the immunopathology that leads to acute respiratory distress syndrome in a well-defined patient population disproportionally affected by severe COVID-19.

Project description:Atglflox/flox (B6N.129S-Pnpla2tm1Eek/J), S100A8-cre+/- (B6.Cg-Tg(S100A8-cre,-EGFP)1Ilw/J) mice were obtained from The Jackson Laboratory. Atglflox/flox mice were bred to S100A8-cre+/- mice to generate Atglflox/WTS100A8-cre+/- mice, which were backcrossed onto Atglflox/flox mice to generate Atglflox/floxS100A8-cre+/- mice (Atgl neutrophils-specific knock out, Atgl-cKO). Age-matched littermate Atglflox/flox mice were used as wild-type (WT) controls. To compare of the gene expression of the lung-infiltrating neutrophils isolated from Atgl-cKO mice and their WT littermates, AT3-g-csf cells were injected into the fourth mammary fat pads of female WT and Atgl-cKO mice (10-week-old, n = 4/group). The AT3-g-csf cell line is based on a murine breast cancer cell line (AT3) derived from MMTV-PyMT tumors in the C57BL/6 background, and further constructed to overexpress granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) for induction of the host inflammatory condition. At day 10 (pre-metastatic stage), the mice were euthanized and then Ly6G+ neutrophils were isolated from lung by using anti-Ly6G MicroBead Kit (Miltenyi Biotec) following manufacturer’s instructions. The isolated neutrophils were analyzed by flow cytometry and the cells with a > 95% purity were used for the next procedure. Total RNA was isolated from neutrophils using the miRNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen) and the transcriptional profiles of neutrophils were analyzed by RNA sequencing.

Project description:While critical for host defense, innate immune cells are also pathologic drivers of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Innate immune dynamics during COVID-19 ARDS, compared to ARDS from other respiratory pathogens, is unclear. Moreover, mechanisms underlying beneficial effects of dexamethasone during severe COVID-19 remain elusive. Using scRNA-seq and plasma proteomics, we discovered that compared to bacterial ARDS, COVID-19 was associated with expansion of distinct neutrophil states characterized by interferon (IFN) and prostaglandin (PG) signalling. Dexamethasone during severe COVID-19 depleted circulating neutrophils, altered IFNactive neutrophils, downregulated interferon-stimulated gene, and activated IL1R2+ve neutrophils. Dexamethasone also expanded immunosuppressive immature neutrophils and remodeled cellular interactions by changing neutrophils from information receivers into information providers. Male patients had higher proportions of IFNactive neutrophils, preferential steroid-induced immature neutrophil expansion, and possibly different effects on outcome. Our single-cell atlas (www.biernaskielab.ca/COVID_neutrophil) defines COVID-19-enriched neutrophil states and molecular mechanisms of dexamethasone action to develop targeted immunotherapies for severe COVID-19.

Project description:We report that tumor-infiltrating neutrophils are significantly different from their bone marrow and circulating neutrophils counterparts. We generated a heatmap clustering of the differentially expressed genes between the neutrophils from the three compartments, and identified four distinct gene clusters. Notably, genes in cluster 1 were down-regulated in tumor neutrophils, and comprised of genes involved in the adaptive immune response (GO:0002250). By contrast, genes in cluster 4 were up-regulated in tumor neutrophils, and consisted of genes involved in chemokine-mediated signalling pathway (GO:0070098) and positive regulation of cellular metabolic process (GO:0031325). We observed several cellular metabolic processes were up-regulated, suggesting a change in the metabolic signature of neutrophils that infiltrate the tumor. In conclusion, the distinct metabolic signature led us to hypothesize that the pronounced glycolytic profile of tumor-infiltrating neutrophils mediates pro-tumoral activity and PDAC progression.

Project description:It was previously demonstrated that myeloid cells assume a distinct transcriptional profile when infiltrating the brain during chronic inflammation. We demonstrated that neutrophils infiltrate the brain during pancreatic cancer. To determine if the transcriptional profile of brain-infiltrating neutrophils is distinct from those infiltrating other organs, we compared the gene signatures of brain-infiltrating neutrophils, circulating neutrophils, liver-infiltrating neutrophils, and tumor-infiltrating neutrophils to that of circulating neutrophils from healthy mice.

Project description:Generation of organ-infiltrating neutrophils occurs in hematopoietic tissues and organs, such as bone marrow and spleen, in response to tumor- and host-derived factors. The de novo expanded neutrophils then egress from hematopoietic sites, circulate through the blood vessels and infiltrate into the organ interstitia and parenchyma. During above trafficking process, neutrophils can undergo phenotypic and functional changes in response to tissue environments. To determine the difference among neutrophils residing in the hematopoietic site—BM, circulating in the blood, and those infiltrating in the metastatic organ, the transcriptional profiles of neutrophils were analyzed by RNA sequencing. 4T1 cells were injected into the fourth mammary fat pads of female syngeneic BALB/cJ mice (8-week-old, n = 3). At day 10 (pre-metastatic stage), the mice were euthanized and then CD45+CD11b+Ly6G<high>Ly6C<med> neutrophils from bone marrow (BM), peripheral blood (PB) and lung were isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. Total RNA was isolated from neutrophils using the miRNeasy Mini kit (Qiagen) and the transcriptional profiles of neutrophils were analyzed by RNA sequencing

Project description:Neutrophils are abundant in the tumor microenvironment and frequently acquire immunosuppressive phenotypes, yet the mechanisms driving this transition remain incompletely defined. To investigate the role of the transcription factor Egr1 and MEK signaling in neutrophil-mediated immune suppression, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of tumor-infiltrating neutrophils isolated from a syngeneic oral cavity cancer model (MOC1) in mice. This dataset comprises four experimental groups: Egr1 wild-type (WT) vs. Egr1 knockout (KO) and vehicle control vs. trametinib (MEK inhibitor) treatment. Comparative transcriptional profiling revealed that Egr1-deficient neutrophils fail to upregulate key immunosuppressive and pro-inflammatory effectors, including Osm, Ptgs2, and Il1b, in response to the tumor microenvironment. Conversely, trametinib-treated neutrophils displayed reduced expression of hypoxia- and MEK-driven transcriptional programs, including suppression of Osm, Ptgs2, Il1b, and the AP-1 transcription factor Junb.
