Project description:Dunster2014 - WBC Interactions (Model1)
This is a sub-model of a three-step
inflammatory response modelling study. The model includes distinct
populations of white blood cells namely, macrophages and active and
apoptotic neutrophil populations. Neutrophil apoptosis rate is
predicted to be crucial for the qualitative nature of the
system.
This model is described in the article:

inflammation: a mathematical model of neutrophil and macrophage
interactions.

Abstract:
There is growing interest in inflammation due to its
involvement in many diverse medical conditions, including
Alzheimer's disease, cancer, arthritis and asthma. The
traditional view that resolution of inflammation is a passive
process is now being superceded by an alternative hypothesis
whereby its resolution is an active, anti-inflammatory process
that can be manipulated therapeutically. This shift in mindset
has stimulated a resurgence of interest in the biological
mechanisms by which inflammation resolves. The
anti-inflammatory processes central to the resolution of
inflammation revolve around macrophages and are closely related
to pro-inflammatory processes mediated by neutrophils and their
ability to damage healthy tissue. We develop a spatially
averaged model of inflammation centring on its resolution,
accounting for populations of neutrophils and macrophages and
incorporating both pro- and anti-inflammatory processes. Our
ordinary differential equation model exhibits two outcomes that
we relate to healthy and unhealthy states. We use bifurcation
analysis to investigate how variation in the system parameters
affects its outcome. We find that therapeutic manipulation of
the rate of macrophage phagocytosis can aid in resolving
inflammation but success is critically dependent on the rate of
neutrophil apoptosis. Indeed our model predicts that an
effective treatment protocol would take a dual approach,
targeting macrophage phagocytosis alongside neutrophil
apoptosis.

Project description:Innate immune pattern recognition receptors play critical roles in pathogen detection and initiation of antimicrobial responses. We and others have previously demonstrated the importance of the beta-glucan receptor Dectin-1 in the recognition of pathogenic fungi by macrophages and dendritic cells, and have elucidated some of the mechanisms by which Dectin-1 signals to coordinate the antifungal response. While Dectin-1 signals alone are sufficient to trigger phagocytosis and Src-Syk-mediated induction of antimicrobial reactive oxygen species, collaboration with Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 signaling enhances NF-kB activation and regulates cytokine production. In this study we demonstrate that Dectin-1 signaling can also directly modulate gene expression via activation of nuclear transcription of activated T cells (NFAT) transcription factors. Dectin-1 ligation by zymosan particles or live Candida albicans yeast triggers NFAT activation in macrophages and dendritic cells. Dectin-1-triggered NFAT activation plays a role in the induction of Egr2 and Egr3 transcription factors, and cyclooxygenase 2 (Cox-2). Furthermore, we show that NFAT activation regulates IL-2, IL-10 and IL-12 p70 production by zymosan-stimulated dendritic cells. These data establish NFAT activation in myeloid cells as a novel mechanism of regulation of the innate antimicrobial response. Experiment Overall Design: Bone marrow-derived macrophages deficient in MyD88 were stimulated with zymosan, and total RNA was extracted 120 minutes after stimulation for comparison to macrophages grown under the same conditions, but not stimulated.

Project description:Although mast cells elicit proinflammatory and type I IFN responses upon VSV infection, in response to L.monocytogenes (L.m) or S. Typhimurium (S.t), such cells elicit a transcriptional program devoid of type I IFN response. Balanced induction of proinflamatory and type I interferon (IFN) responses upon activation of Toll like receptors (TLRs) determines the outcome of microbial infections and the pathogenesis of autoimmune and other inflammatory diseases. Mast cells, key components of the innate immune system, are known for their debilitating role in allergy and autoimmune syndromes. However, their potential role in anti-microbial host defenses is increasingly being acknowledged. How mast cells interact with microbes and the nature of responses triggered thereof is not well characterized. Here we show that in response to TLR activation by Gram-positive and negative bacteria or their components like LPS, unlike macrophages, mast cells elicit pro-inflammatory but not type I IFN responses. We demonstrate that in mast cells, the bound bacteria and TLR ligands remain trapped at the cell surface and do not undergo internalization - a prerequisite for type I IFN induction. Such cells could, however, elicit type I IFNs in response to vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), which accesses the cytosolic RIG-I receptor. Although important for anti-viral immunity, a strong type I IFN response is known to contribute to pathogenesis during bacterial infection. Thus, while endowed with the capacity to elicit type I IFNs in response to viral infection, the fact that mast cells only elicit pro-inflammatory responses upon bacterial infection illustrates that mast cells, key effector cells of the innate immune system, are well adjusted for optimal anti-bacterial and anti-viral responses. Wild type control (cntr) or interferon receptor (IFNAR)-deficient mast cells (MC) or macrophages (MAC) were infected with L.m. and S.t. (MOIs 50 and 5 for MC and MAC, respectively). MC and MAC were exposed to VSV-AV2 (MOI: 2). Samples were analyzed after 6 hours. Uninfected/unstimulated cells were used as reference samples for calculating fold change in gene expression. Gene Expression levels were determined by the Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0 GeneChips. Signal Intensities were calculated using the RMA algorithm and for statistical analysis we applied GeneSpring GX 10 software suite (Agilent Technologies, Waldbronn, Germany). MultiExperiment Viewer (MEV) software version 4.4 of the Institute for Genomic Research was used for clustering algorithm data analysis and visualization.

Project description:The interaction of macrophages with apoptotic cells is required for efficient resolution of inflammation. While apoptotic cell removal prevents inflammation due to secondary necrosis, it also alters the macrophage phenotype to hinder further inflammatory reactions. The interaction between apoptotic cells and macrophages is often studied by chemical or biological induction of apoptosis, which may introduce artifacts by affecting the macrophages as well and/or triggering unrelated signaling pathways. Here, we set up a pure cell death system in which NIH 3T3 cells expressing dimerizable Caspase-8 were co-cultured with peritoneal macrophages in a transwell system. Phenotype changes in macrophages induced by apoptotic cells were evaluated by RNA sequencing, which revealed an unexpectedly dominant impact on macrophage proliferation. This was confirmed in functional assays with primary peritoneal macrophages and IC-21 macrophages. Moreover, inhibition of apoptosis during Zymosan-induced peritonitis in mice decreased mRNA levels of cell cycle mediators in peritoneal macrophages. Proliferation of macrophages in response to apoptotic cells may be important to increase macrophage numbers to allow efficient clearance and resolution of inflammation.

Project description:Macrophages are a heterogeneous population of immune cells, which are critical for both the initiation and resolution of inflammation. Pro-inflammatory macrophages can be induced by the Th1 cytokine IFNγ and/or TLR triggers, like LPS. Here, we investigated the effects of IFNγ priming on LPS-induced gene expression in primary mouse macrophages.

Project description:Inflammatory response plays a bidirectional regulatory role in myocardial infarction (MI). TLR signaling pathway plays an important role in the development of inflammation. Additionally, we discovered that CCRR is an anti-arrhythmic lncRNA in a prior work. Here we show, it is decreased in mice with 3-day MI followed by a sharp increase of pro-inflammatory cytokines and activation of the TLR pathway. Overexpression of CCRR could effectively inhibit the inflammatory response, reduce the infarct area, and improve cardiac function. And also reduced hypoxia-induced inflammation in cardiomyocytes and macrophages induced by IFN and LPS. It produced a similar protective effect in cardiomyocytes co-cultured with macrophages. Through microarray analysis, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation analysis, and other related experiments verification, TLR2 and TLR4 may be as potential targets of CCRR after MI. Our findings provide the evidence that lncRNA CCRR plays a key cardioprotective role against MI injury by targeting the TLR signaling pathway. nflammatory response plays a bidirectional regulatory role in myocardial infarction (MI).

Project description:Here we demonstrate for the first time evidence of lineage switch from B-1 B lymphocyte to a macrophage , or so-called transdifferentiation, occurring in mature cells in vivo. Specifically, using transgenic B6.Mb1-iCre/Rosa26-YFP mice, in which YFP expression is restricted exclusively to B cell lineage, we discovered that a significant portion of tissue-resident macrophages in peritoneum, pleural cavity and intestine in steady state are positive for YFP. B cell origin of YFP+ macrophages was confirmed by next-generation sequencing of genomic DNA locus encoding immunoglobulin heavy chain genes. Eliciting a self-resolving zymosan peritonitis showed that during inflammation a subset of B-1 B cells gives rise to inflammation-induced macrophages. The aim of this study was to perform transcriptome analysis of B-1 B cell-derived macrophages (B-1/macrophages) from the naM-ove and inflamed murine peritoneum and compare them to already established populations of naM-ove tissue-resident macrophages, inflammation-experienced resident (yolk-sac-derived) macrophages and inflammation-induced (monocyte-derived) macrophages.

Project description:Monocytes/macrophages have the ability to fuse in multinucleated giant cells (MGCs). Except for osteoclasts that resorb bones on large surfaces, the function of other macrophage-derived MGCs, which appear under pathological situations associated with granulomatous inflammation such as tuberculosis, is not understood. Here we deciphered functions and gene expression profiles of MGCs obtained after stimulation of human monocytes with IFN-gM-BM- and concanavalin A. First, we show that the competence of MGCs in phagocytosis and O2- production was similar to those of monocytes-derived macrophages (MDMs) and that MGCs exhibited a M1 polarization. Second, we analyzed the transcriptional profile of MGCs using gene categories and the building of gene networks. The signature of MGCs was markedly distinct from that of resting or stimulated MDMs. It consisted of the up-regulation of genes involved in adhesion and cytoskeleton organization while genes associated with immune response were down-regulated. Hence, MGC formation was associated with a profound and original modulation of gene expression repertoire suggesting that macrophage immune were not prominent in MGC. This expression gene repertoire may be instrumental to understand the specific function of this giant macrophages in human pathologies 9 samples of monocytes-derived macrophages and 3 samples of mulitnucleated giant cells. 3 samples of MDM treated with concanavalin A, 3 samples of MDM treated with IFN-g, and 3 control MDM.
