Macrophage-associated mesenchymal stem cells assume an activated, migratory, pro-inflammatory phenotype with increased IL-6 and CXCL10 secretion.

ABSTRACT: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit tropism for sites of tissue injury and tumors. However, the influence of the microenvironment on MSC phenotype and localization remains incompletely characterized. In this study, we begin to define a macrophage-induced MSC phenotype. These MSCs secrete interleukin-6 (IL-6), CCL5, and interferon gamma-induced protein-10 (CXCL10) and exhibit increased mobility in response to multiple soluble factors produced by macrophages including IL-8, CCL2, and CCL5. The pro-migratory phenotype is dependent on activation of a c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway. This work begins to identify the influence of macrophages on MSC biology. These interactions are likely to play an important role in the tissue inflammatory response and may provide insight into the migratory potential of MSCs in inflammation and tissue injury.

Tumor-Activated Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Promote Osteosarcoma Stemness and Migratory Potential via IL-6 Secretion.

Project description:Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive bone malignancy with a high relapse rate despite combined treatment with surgery and multiagent chemotherapy. As for other cancers, OS-associated microenvironment may contribute to tumor initiation, growth, and metastasis. We consider mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) as a relevant cellular component of OS microenvironment, and have previously found that the interaction between MSC and tumor cells is bidirectional: tumor cells can modulate their peripheral environment that in turn becomes more favorable to tumor growth through metabolic reprogramming. Here, we determined the effects of MSC on OS stemness and migration, two major features associated with recurrence and chemoresistance. The presence of stromal cells enhanced the number of floating spheres enriched in cancer stem cells (CSC) of the OS cell population. Furthermore, the co-culturing with MSC stimulated the migratory capacity of OS via TGFβ1 and IL-6 secretion, and the neutralizing antibody anti-IL-6 impaired this effect. Thus, stromal cells in combination with OS spheres exploit a vicious cycle where the presence of CSC stimulates mesenchymal cytokine secretion, which in turn increases stemness, proliferation, migration, and metastatic potential of CSC, also through the increase of expression of adhesion molecules like ICAM-1. Altogether, our data corroborate the concept that a comprehensive knowledge of the interplay between tumor and stroma that also includes the stem-like fraction of tumor cells is needed to develop novel and effective anti-cancer therapies.

Differentiated fibrocytes assume a functional mesenchymal phenotype with regenerative potential.

Project description:Fibrocytes (FCs) are hematopoietic lineage cells that migrate to sites of injury, transition to a mesenchymal phenotype, and help to mediate wound repair. Despite their relevance to human fibrotic disorders, there are few data characterizing basic FC biology. Herein, using proteomic, bioenergetic, and bioengineering techniques, we conducted deep phenotypic characterization of differentiating and mature FCs. Differentiation was associated with metabolic reprogramming that favored oxidative phosphorylation. Mature FCs had distinct proteomes compared to classic mesenchymal cells, formed functional stromae that supported epithelial maturation during in vitro organotypic culture, and exhibited in vivo survival and self-tolerance as connective tissue isografts. In an in vitro scratch assay, FCs promoted fibroblast migration and wound closure by paracrine signaling via the chemokine CXCL8 (interleukin-8). These findings characterize important aspects of FC differentiation and show that, in addition to their role in wound healing, FCs hold potential as an easily isolated autologous cell source for regenerative medicine.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate and assume corneal keratocyte phenotype.

Project description:It remains elusive as to what bone marrow (BM) cell types infiltrate into injured and/or diseased tissues and subsequently differentiate to assume the phenotype of residential cells, for example, neurons, cardiac myocytes, keratocytes, etc., to repair damaged tissue. Here, we examined the possibility of whether BM cell invasion via circulation into uninjured and injured corneas could assume a keratocyte phenotype, using chimeric mice generated by transplantation of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)(+) BM cells into keratocan null (Kera(-/-)) and lumican null (Lum(-/-)) mice. EGFP(+) BM cells assumed dendritic cell morphology, but failed to synthesize corneal-specific keratan sulfate proteoglycans, that is KS-lumican and KS-keratocan. In contrast, some EGFP(+) BM cells introduced by intrastromal transplantation assumed keratocyte phenotypes. Furthermore, BM cells were isolated from Kera-Cre/ZEG mice, a double transgenic mouse line in which cells expressing keratocan become EGFP(+) due to the synthesis of Cre driven by keratocan promoter. Three days after corneal and conjunctival transplantations of such BM cells into Kera(-/-) mice, green keratocan positive cells were found in the cornea, but not in conjunctiva. It is worthy to note that transplanted BM cells were rejected in 4 weeks. MSC isolated from BM were used to examine if BM mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) could assume keratocyte phenotype. When BM-MSC were intrastromal-transplanted into Kera(-/-) mice, they survived in the cornea without any immune and inflammatory responses and expressed keratocan in Kera(-/-) mice. These observations suggest that corneal intrastromal transplantation of BM-MSC may be an effective treatment regimen for corneal diseases involving dysfunction of keratocytes.

Autophagy controls IL-1beta secretion by targeting pro-IL-1beta for degradation.

Project description:Autophagy is a key regulator of cellular homeostasis that can be activated by pathogen-associated molecules and recently has been shown to influence IL-1β secretion by macrophages. However, the mechanisms behind this are unclear. Here, we describe a novel role for autophagy in regulating the production of IL-1β in antigen-presenting cells. After treatment of macrophages with Toll-like receptor ligands, pro-IL-1β was specifically sequestered into autophagosomes, whereas further activation of autophagy with rapamycin induced the degradation of pro-IL-1β and blocked secretion of the mature cytokine. Inhibition of autophagy promoted the processing and secretion of IL-1β by antigen-presenting cells in an NLRP3- and TRIF-dependent manner. This effect was reduced by inhibition of reactive oxygen species but was independent of NOX2. Induction of autophagy in mice in vivo with rapamycin reduced serum levels of IL-1β in response to challenge with LPS. These data demonstrate that autophagy controls the production of IL-1β through at least two separate mechanisms: by targeting pro-IL-1β for lysosomal degradation and by regulating activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Pathogenic Roles of CXCL10 in Experimental Autoimmune Prostatitis by Modulating Macrophage Chemotaxis and Cytokine Secretion.

Project description:Chronic prostatitis and chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is an inflammatory immune disease characterized by intraprostatic leukocyte infiltration and pelvic or perineal pain. Macrophages play vital roles in the pathogenesis of CP/CPPS. However, the mechanisms controlling the activation and chemotaxis of macrophages in CP/CPPS remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the roles of the CXCL10/CXCR3 pathway in the activation and chemotaxis of macrophages in CP/CPPS patients. The serums of CP/CPPS patients and healthy volunteers were collected and measured. Results showed that CXCL10 expression was significantly elevated and correlated with the severity of CP/CPPS patients. The experimental autoimmune prostatitis (EAP) model was generated, and adeno-associated virus and CXCR3 inhibitors were used to treat EAP mice. Immunofluorescence, flow cytometry, and Western blotting were used to analyze the functional phenotype and regulation mechanism of macrophages. Results showed that CXCL10 deficiency ameliorates EAP severity by inhibiting infiltration of macrophages to prostate. Moreover, CXCL10 could induce macrophage migrations and secretions of proinflammatory mediators via CXCR3, which consequently activated the downstream Erk1/2 and p38 MAPK signaling pathways. We also showed that prostatic stromal cell is a potential source of CXCL10. Our results indicated CXCL10 as an important mediator involved in inflammatory infiltration and pain symptoms of prostatitis by promoting the migration of macrophages and secretion of inflammatory mediators via CXCR3-mediated ERK and p38 MAPK activation.

Matrix bound nanovesicle-associated IL-33 activates a pro-remodeling macrophage phenotype via a non-canonical, ST2-independent pathway.

Project description:The regenerative healing response of injured skeletal muscle is dependent upon an appropriately timed switch from a local type-I to a type-II immune response. Biologic scaffolds derived from extracellular matrix (ECM) have been shown to facilitate a macrophage phenotype transition that leads to downstream site-appropriate functional tissue deposition and myogenesis. However, the mechanisms by which ECM directs the switching of immune cell phenotype are only partially understood. Herein, we provide the first evidence that matrix bound nanovesicles (MBV) embedded within ECM-scaffolds are a rich and stable source of interleukin-33 (IL-33), an alarmin/cytokine with emerging reparative properties. We show that IL-33 encapsulated within MBV bypass the classical IL33/ST2 receptor signaling pathway to direct macrophage differentiation into the reparative, pro-remodeling M2 phenotype, which in turn facilitates myogenesis of skeletal muscle progenitor cells. Our results suggest the potential of IL-33+ MBV as a clinical therapy to augment the restorative efficacy of existing ECM-based and non-ECM based approaches.

Epigenetic regulation of the alternatively activated macrophage phenotype.

Project description:Alternatively activated (M2) macrophages play critical roles in diverse chronic diseases, including parasite infections, cancer, and allergic responses. However, little is known about the acquisition and maintenance of their phenotype. We report that M2-macrophage marker genes are epigenetically regulated by reciprocal changes in histone H3 lysine-4 (H3K4) and histone H3 lysine-27 (H3K27) methylation; and the latter methylation marks are removed by the H3K27 demethylase Jumonji domain containing 3 (Jmjd3). We found that continuous interleukin-4 (IL-4) treatment leads to decreased H3K27 methylation, at the promoter of M2 marker genes, and a concomitant increase in Jmjd3 expression. Furthermore, we demonstrate that IL-4-dependent Jmjd3 expression is mediated by STAT6, a major transcription factor of IL-4-mediated signaling. After IL-4 stimulation, activated STAT6 is increased and binds to consensus sites at the Jmjd3 promoter. Increased Jmjd3 contributes to the decrease of H3K27 dimethylation and trimethylation (H3K27me2/3) marks as well as the transcriptional activation of specific M2 marker genes. The decrease in H3K27me2/3 and increase in Jmjd3 recruitment were confirmed by in vivo studies using a Schistosoma mansoni egg-challenged mouse model, a well-studied system known to support an M2 phenotype. Collectively, these data indicate that chromatin remodeling is mechanistically important in the acquisition of the M2-macrophage phenotype.

Interaction among activated lymphocytes and mesenchymal cells through podoplanin is critical for a high IL-17 secretion.

Project description:During chronic inflammation, immune cells, notably Th17 cells, infiltrate the inflammatory site and interact with local mesenchymal cells. Applied to rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the aim is to study the interactions between synoviocytes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with a focus on the Th17 pathway and to identify a mechanism which leads to high IL-17 secretion with an interest on podoplanin.PBMC from healthy donors and RA patients were co-cultured with RA synoviocytes during 48 h, in the presence or not of phytohemagglutinin. An antibody against podoplanin was used in co-culture. Cytokine production (IL-6, IL-1? and IL-17) was measured by ELISA and cell staining (CD3, CD4, IL-17 and podoplanin) by flow cytometry.In control conditions, IL-6 and IL-1? production was increased in PBMC-synoviocyte co-culture compared to PBMC alone (p?=?0.02). No additional effect was observed with PBMC activation. Flow cytometry analysis showed no difference in the percentage of Th17 cells in activated PBMC alone or with synoviocytes (p?=?0.4), indicating that Th17 differentiation requires only T cell activation. Conversely, IL-17 production was highly increased in co-cultures with activated PBMC vs. activated PBMC alone (p?=?0.002). Transwell experiments confirm that cell-cell contact was critical for IL-17 secretion. The incubation of either PBMC or synoviocytes with an anti-podoplanin antibody decreased IL-17 secretion by 60 % (p?=?0.008).Interactions between resting PBMC and synoviocytes are sufficient to induce IL-6 and IL-1? production. Both PBMC activation and cell interactions are needed to induce a high IL-17 secretion. Podoplanin contributes at the level of both lymphocytes and synoviocytes.

IL-17-producing ?? T cells switch migratory patterns between resting and activated states.

Project description:Interleukin 17-producing ?? T (??T17) cells have unconventional trafficking characteristics, residing in mucocutaneous tissues but also homing into inflamed tissues via circulation. Despite being fundamental to ??T17-driven early protective immunity and exacerbation of autoimmunity and cancer, migratory cues controlling ??T17 cell positioning in barrier tissues and recruitment to inflammatory sites are still unclear. Here we show that ??T17 cells constitutively express chemokine receptors CCR6 and CCR2. While CCR6 recruits resting ??T17 cells to the dermis, CCR2 drives rapid ??T17 cell recruitment to inflamed tissues during autoimmunity, cancer and infection. Downregulation of CCR6 by IRF4 and BATF upon ??T17 activation is required for optimal recruitment of ??T17 cells to inflamed tissue by preventing their sequestration into uninflamed dermis. These findings establish a lymphocyte trafficking model whereby a hierarchy of homing signals is prioritized by dynamic receptor expression to drive both tissue surveillance and rapid recruitment of ??T17 cells to inflammatory lesions.

Proteomic profiling of HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells of mesenchymal or amoeboid migratory phenotype

Project description:Amoeboid and mesenchymal migration of cancer cells both contribute to metastatic spreading of tumors. To characterize proteome changes underlying the different migratory modes, we performed mass spectrometry profiling of HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells undergoing mesenchymal-amoeboid transition induced by either doxycycline-inducible constitutively active RhoA or dasatinib treatment. Cells were kept in three-dimensional collagen gels with or without induction for 48 hours, lysed and processed for mass spectrometry analysis. In case of the inducible RhoA system, we also performed parallel two-dimensional experiments with cells on top of a dense layer of collagen (it was not feasible with dasatinib treatment).
