Bladder resident macrophage subsets differently shape the response to urinary tract infection


ABSTRACT: Resident macrophages are highly abundant in the bladder, playing key roles in directing immunity to uropathogens. Yet, whether they are heterogeneous, where they come from, and precisely how they respond to infection remain largely unknown. We identified two macrophage subsets in mouse bladders with distinct localization, protein expression, and transcriptomes. Using a model of urinary tract infection, we validated our transcriptomics analyses finding that one macrophage subset phagocytosed more bacteria and polarized to a more anti-inflammatory profile, whereas the other subset died rapidly after infection. After resolution of infection, tissue-resident macrophage subsets were partially replaced by monocyte-derived cells with distinct transcriptional profiles. Elimination of these macrophages led to a type 1 biased immune response to challenge infection. Our study brings considerably more knowledge about the biology of bladder resident macrophages and their response to primary and recurrent infection, which may have broader implications for macrophage subsets in other mucosal tissues.
