Single cell RNA sequencing reveals mechanisms underlying a senescence-like phenotype of Alveolar Macrophages during Aging

ABSTRACT: Alveolar Macrophages (AMs) are unique innate immune cells that reside in the alveolar space and accommodate the ever-changing needs of the lungs against internal and external challenges. During homeostasis, AMs maintain themselves through self-renewal without input from adult hematopoietic stem cells. Currently, little is known regarding the influence of aging on AM dynamics, heterogeneity and transcriptional profiles. Here, we identified CBFβ as an indispensable transcription factor that ensures AM self-renewal. Deficiency in CBFβ led to decreased proliferation and self-renewal ability of AMs. Moreover, with single cell RNA sequencing analysis of AMs from young and aged mice, we discovered that despite similarities in the transcriptome of proliferating cells, AMs from the aged mice exhibited reduced embryotic stem cell-like features. Aged AMs also showed diminished capacity for DNA repair, potentially contributing to impaired cell cycle progression and elevation of senescence markers. In accordance with the analysis, we observed reduced number of AMs in aged mice, which had defective self-renewal ability and were more sensitive to the reduction of GM-CSF. Interestingly, decreased CBFβ was observed in the cytosol of AMs from aged mice. A similar senescence-like phenotype was also found in human AMs. Taken together, we conclude that AMs in the aged host harbor a senescence-like phenotype, potentially mediated by the activity of CBFβ.

Von Hippel-Lindau protein is required for optimal alveolar macrophage terminal differentiation, self-renewal and function.

Project description:The rapid transit from hypoxia to normoxia in the lung that follows the first breath in newborn mice coincides with alveolar macrophage (AM) differentiation. However, whether sensing of oxygen affects AM maturation and function has not been previously explored. We have generated mice whose AMs show a deficient ability to sense oxygen after birth by deleting Vhl, a negative regulator of HIF transcription factors, in the CD11c compartment (CD11c∆Vhl mice). VHL-deficient AMs show an immature-like phenotype and an impaired self-renewal capacity in vivo that persists upon culture ex vivo. VHL-deficient phenotype is intrinsic in AMs derived from monocyte precursors in mixed bone marrow chimeras. Moreover, unlike control Vhlfl/fl, AMs from CD11c∆Vhl mice do not revert pulmonary alveolar proteinosis when transplanted into Csf2rb-/- mice, demonstrating that VHL contributes to AM-mediated surfactant clearance. Thus, our results suggest that optimal AM terminal differentiation, self-renewal, and homeostatic function requires their oxygen sensing capacity.

Expression data of sham and p21-overexpressed MLE-12 cells

Project description:We report that p21 expression was increased in the alveolar epithelial type 2 cells (AEC2s) in a time dependent manner following multiple bleomycin induced pulmonary fibrosis (PF). The AEC2s with the elevated expression of p21 exhibited cell senescence and lost the ability of self-renewal and differentiation. Evaluation of mRNA profiles in sham and p21-adenovirus treated MLE-12 cells is helpful to analyze the changes of lung alveolar epithelial cells after p21 deposition.

Characterization of in vitro cultured alveolar macrophages (AM) transcriptomes following DON treatment

Project description:To identify molecular characteristics of WT AM with or without DON stimulation in vitro, we isolated RNA from AMs with various treatments and examined by bulk RNA-seq. We found a large number of gene profiles were altered following DON treatment in WT AMs, suggesting that DON treatment altered the balance of proliferative versus inflammatory genes in AMs, and glutamine metabolism is important in regulating AM self-renewal ability.

Cigarette smoke extract-treated alveolar macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles

Project description:This project is based upon the fundamental observation that alveolar macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles (AM-EVs), when internalized by neighboring epithelial cells, inhibit their infection by influenza virus. This inhibitory activity of AM-EVs is abolished when AMs are treated with cigarette smoke extract (CSE). We chose to survey the AM-EV proteome in an effort to identify candidate proteins whose abundance within EVs was downregulated by CSE treatment of AMs, thus explaining the ability of CSE to abrogate the inhibitory activity against influenza.

Effect of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) gene knockout on expression profiles of aged (18-month-old) murine hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:As part of a study of the role of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) in maintenance and senescence of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), global gene expression profiling was done with HSC isolated from 18-month-old Ahr-knockout and wild-type mice. HSC from aged AhR-KO mice had changes in expression of many genes related to HSC maintenance, consistent with the phenotype observed in aging Ahr-KO mice: decreased survival rate, splenomegaly, increased circulating white blood cells, hematopoietic cell accumulation in tissues, anemia, increased numbers of stem/progenitor and lineage-committed cells in bone marrow, decreased erythroid progenitor cells in bone marrow, and decreased self-renewal capacity of HSC. 10 samples: 5 Ahr knockout, 5 wild-type

RNA-seq of mouse alveolar macrophages sorted from CD11cCre/+ Tgfbr2fl/fl and control Tgfbr2fl/fl neonatal mice

Project description:Alveolar macrophages (AMs) are lung resident phagocytes. They derive from fetal liver monocytes, which colonize the lung during embryonic development and give rise to fully mature AMs perinatally. We have identified TGF- signaling as an indispensible regulator during this process. To analyze the impact of TGF- on the entire transcriptome of AMs, we performed RNA-seq on AMs deficient of Tgfbr2 in CD11cCre/+ Tgfbr2fl/fl mice at P3 with Tgfbr2fl/fl littermates as a control.

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.

Bhlhe40 and Bhlhe41 transcription factors regulate alveolar macrophage self-renewal and identity

Project description:Tissues in multicellular organisms are ‘serviced’ by resident macrophages, which perform both generic and tissue-specific functions. The latter relies on unique tissue-specific molecular programs induced by signals from the microenvironment and executed through a combinatorial action of tissue-specific and broadly expressed transcriptional regulators. Here, we identify the transcription factors Bhlhe40 and Bhlhe41 as novel regulators of alveolar macrophages (AMs) – a population that provides the first line of immune defense and executes homeostatic functions in lung alveoli. In the absence of these factors, AMs exhibited decreased proliferation that resulted in a severe disadvantage of knockout AMs in a competitive setting. Gene expression analyses revealed a broad cell-intrinsic footprint of Bhlhe40/Bhlhe41-deficiency manifested by a downregulation of AM signature genes and induction of signature genes of other macrophage lineages. Genome-wide characterization of Bhlhe40 DNA binding suggested that these transcription factors directly repress the expression of lineage-inappropriate genes in AMs. Taken together, these results identify Bhlhe40 and Bhlhe41 as key regulators of AM self-renewal and guardians of their identity.

An ageing bone marrow exacerbates lung fibrosis via a dysregulated regulatory T cell driven axis, fuelling profibrotic macrophage persistence

Project description:Pulmonary fibrosis is an incurable disease, which increasingly manifests with advanced age. Yet, how the ageing hematopoietic niche influences immune cell function and fibrosis progression in the lungs remains elusive. Using heterochronic transplant mouse models, we discovered that an aged bone marrow exacerbates lung fibrosis irrespective of lung tissue age. Upon lung injury, there was an increased pulmonary infiltration of monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (Mo-AMs) from an aged bone marrow. These Mo-AMs displayed an enhanced profibrotic profile and a delayed transition in acquiring a homeostatic tissue-resident phenotype. This impaired Mo-AM differentiation was attributed to diminished numbers of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and the reduced availability of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in the lung microenvironment of mice engrafted with aged bone marrow. Mechanistically, we show that Tregs are crucial providers of IL-10 that promote timely Mo-AM maturation and attenuate fibrosis progression. Our findings demonstrate the critical influence of an aged bone marrow on the development of lung fibrosis and identify a Treg-mediated resolutory axis as a potential therapeutic target for accelerated tissue repair.
