ATAC-seq in wild type and EGR2 knock-out mouse alveolar macrophages

ABSTRACT: The alveolar macrophages (AMs) as a component of the innate immunity of the lung play important role in the elimination of inhaled microbes and harmful agents. The transcription factor EGR2 is a known marker transcription factor of AMs but its exact epigenetic and transcriptomic effects have not been examined. In our study, we performed ATAC-seq and RNA-seq in WT and EGR2 deficient alveolar macrophages to describe the mechanism of action and to predict potential direct target genes of EGR2. Clec7a is one of the targets of this transcription factor which is essential in the zymosan-induced inflammatory response. We further analyzed this process by applying in vivo mouse model. Our findings demonstrate that EGR2 is a key transcriptional activator, responsible for the intact protective program against different pathogens, especially fungi in AMs.

Berry e-cigarette vapour impairs alveolar macrophage mobility and infection clearance

Project description:In our lower respiratory tract, the alveolar spaces are divided from the bloodstream and the external environment by only a few microns of interstitial tissue. Alveolar macrophages (AMs) defend this delicate mucosal surface from invading infections by regularly patrolling the site. AMs have three behaviour modalities to achieve this goal: extending cell protrusions to sample surrounding areas, squeezing the whole cell body between alveoli, and patrolling by moving the cell body around each alveolus. In this study we found Rho GTPase, cell division control protein 42 (CDC42) expression significantly decreased after berry-flavoured e-cigarette (e-cig) exposure. This resulted in a shift in AM behaviour from squeezing to probing. Changes in AM behaviour led to a reduction in the clearance of inhaled bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These findings shed light on pathways involved in AM migration and highlight the harmful impact of e-cigarette vaping on alveolar macrophage function.

Transcription repressor Bach2 is required for pulmonary surfactant homeostasis and alveolar macrophage function.

Project description:Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) results from a dysfunction of alveolar macrophages (AMs), chiefly due to disruptions in the signaling of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). We found that mice deficient for the B lymphoid transcription repressor BTB and CNC homology 2 (Bach2) developed PAP-like accumulation of surfactant proteins in the lungs. Bach2 was expressed in AMs, and Bach2-deficient AMs showed alterations in lipid handling in comparison with wild-type (WT) cells. Although Bach2-deficient AMs showed a normal expression of the genes involved in the GM-CSF signaling, they showed an altered expression of the genes involved in chemotaxis, lipid metabolism, and alternative M2 macrophage activation with increased expression of Ym1 and arginase-1, and the M2 regulator Irf4. Peritoneal Bach2-deficient macrophages showed increased Ym1 expression when stimulated with interleukin-4. More eosinophils were present in the lung and peritoneal cavity of Bach2-deficient mice compared with WT mice. The PAP-like lesions in Bach2-deficient mice were relieved by WT bone marrow transplantation even after their development, confirming the hematopoietic origin of the lesions. These results indicate that Bach2 is required for the functional maturation of AMs and pulmonary homeostasis, independently of the GM-CSF signaling. WT (n=8) and Bach2KO (n=3) AMs. One expreriment was performed.

The transcription factor EGR2 is the molecular linchpin connecting STAT6 activation to the stable epigenomic program of alternative macrophage polarization

Project description:Macrophages polarize into functionally distinct subtypes while responding to microenvironmental cues. The identity of proximal transcription factors (TFs) downstream of the polarization signals are known, but their activity is typically transient, failing to explain the long-term, stable epigenomic programs developed. Here, we mapped the early and late epigenomic changes of interleukin-4 (IL-4)-induced alternative macrophage polarization. We identified the TF, Early Growth Response 2 (EGR2), bridging the early-transient and late-stable gene expression program of polarization. EGR2 is a direct target of IL-4-activated STAT6, having broad action indispensable for 77% of the induced gene signature of alternative polarization, including its autoregulation and a robust, downstream TF cascade involving PPARG. Mechanistically, EGR2 binding results in chromatin opening and the recruitment of chromatin remodelers and RNA-polymerase II. Egr2 induction is evolutionarily conserved during alternative polarization of mouse and human macrophages. In the context of tissue resident macrophages, Egr2 expression is most prominent in the lung of a variety of species. Thus, EGR2 is an example of an essential and evolutionarily conserved broad acting factor, linking transient polarization signals to stable epigenomic and transcriptional changes in macrophages.

Gene expression analysis of mouse alveolar macrophages infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Project description:The aim of this study was to measure the immune response of alveolar macrophages (AMs) to intracellular Mtb infection in vivo. We characterized the transcriptional profile of murine Mtb-infected AMs after aerosol infection by sorting cells from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and performing low-input RNA-sequencing. To determine the effect of the transcription factor Nrf2 on this response we also measured the transcriptional profiles of AMs from mice lacking Nrf2.
