Peritoneal macrophage heterogeneity in decompensated liver cirrhosis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Peritoneal macrophages (PM) are thought to regulate peritoneal inflammation and control bacterial infections in decompensated liver cirrhosis. The aim of this study was to characterize human PM heterogeneity. Employing CD206 surface expression, we identified subsets of human large (LPM) and small (SPM) PM, which differed in granularity and maturation states. FACS-sorted LPM from patients with decompensated cirrhosis revealed discrete transcriptome clusters, comprising more than 4000 differentially regulated genes involved in cell cycle, metabolism, and immune signaling.
