Comparison of de novo refilled to original lung interstitial macrophages by bulk RNA-sequencing
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Lung interstitium macrophages (IMs) are non-alveolar resident tissue macrophages which contribute to the lung homeostasis. These cells were reported to be heterogeneous by our group and other teams, which contains two main distinct subpopulations: CD206+ IMs and CD206- IMs. However, the exact origin of IMs and the transcriptional programs that regulate IM differentiation remains unclear. In recent report, we analyzed the refilled IMs in the course of time after induced IM depletion with single-cell RNA sequencing (10X Genomics Chromium) and bulk RNA sequencing. In this study, the de novo refilled CD206+ and CD206- IMs on Day 14 post-depletion were compared to those without depletion. Alvelar macrophages (AMs) samples were also included in this analysis and served as a reference. Results of clustering and PCA analyses showed high similarity between de novo refilled and original IMs for both CD206+ and CD206- subsets. Only 9 genes were find upregulated in refilled IMs: AA467197, Cd109, Igf2r, Rarb and S100a4.

In recent report, we analyzed the refilled IMs in the course of time after induced IM depletion with single-cell RNA sequencing (10X Genomics Chromium) and bulk RNA sequencing. The IMs in Day 4 post-depletion were compared to the those without depletion. Results showed that refilled IMs had a lower ratio of CD206+ IM vs CD206- subpopulation comparing to IMs without depletion, but they shared high similarity to each other, indicating that the de novo IM population had been established before Day 4 post-depletion.

In recent report, we analyzed the refilled IMs in the course of time after induced IM depletion with single-cell RNA sequencing (10X Genomics Chromium) and bulk RNA sequencing. The lung IMs and monocytes from the mice at 12 hours (DT12h), 24 hours (DT24h) and 48 hours (DT48h) after diphtheria toxin (DT)-induced IM depletion were analyzed and compared using single-cell RNA sequencing. A subpopulation was found to be a transit differentiating cells from monocytes to IMs. Transcription factor activity analysis and trajectory showed cMAF and MAFb transcription factors played important roles in monocyte-IM differentiation.

In recent report, we analyzed the refilled IMs in the course of time after induced IM depletion with single-cell RNA sequencing (10X Genomics Chromium) and bulk RNA sequencing. The lung IMs and monocytes from either Lyz2-Cre Mafflox/flox mice (cMAF-KO), Lyz2-Cre Mafbflox/flox (MAFb-KO), Lyz2-Cre Mafflox/flox Mafbflox/flox (dKO) or control litermate mice without floxp locus (Control) were analyzed and compared using single-cell RNA sequencing. All the main substs, i.e. Ly6C+ classical monocytes, Ly6C- patrolling monocytes, CD206+ IMs, CD206- IMs were found in control sample, while IMs are absent in both MAFb-KO and dKO sample accompied by a new intermediate population independent of Mafb expression. CMAF-KO sample show less impact in cell population composition with a lower freqency of CD206+ IM population.
Project description:Lung-resident macrophages, which include alveolar macrophages and interstitial macrophages (IMs), exhibit a high degree of diversity, generally attributed to different activation states, and often complicated by the influx of monocytes into the pool of tissue-resident macrophages. To gain a deeper insight into the functional diversity of IMs, here we perform comprehensive transcriptional profiling of resident IMs and reveal ten distinct chemokine-expressing IM subsets at steady state and during inflammation. Similar IM subsets that exhibited coordinated chemokine signatures and differentially expressed genes were observed across various tissues and species, indicating conserved specialized functional roles. Other macrophage types shared specific IM chemokine profiles, while also presenting their own unique chemokine signatures. Depletion of CD206hi IMs in Pf4creR26EYFP+DTR and Pf4creR26EYFPCx3cr1DTR mice led to diminished inflammatory cell recruitment, reduced tertiary lymphoid structure formation and fewer germinal center B cells in models of allergen- and infection-driven inflammation. These observations highlight the specialized roles of IMs, defined by their coordinated chemokine production, in regulating immune cell influx and organizing tertiary lymphoid tissue architecture.
