Project description:To investigate the role of Irg1-itaconate or Hemin in macrophages, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from WT mice and Irg1KO mice were extracted and cultured. After 7 days of cells culture, the BMDMs from WT mice were treated 120μM 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI) for 15h, 15μM Hemin for 12h, and the BMDMs from Irg1KO mice and WT mice were treated Vehicle for 12h. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 4-OI, Hemin or vehicle treated WT BMDMs and Irg1KO BMDMs.

Project description:One primary metabolic manifestation of inflammation is the diversion of cis-aconitate within the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle to synthesize the immunometabolite itaconate. Itaconate is well established to possess immunomodulatory and metabolic effects within myeloid cells and lymphocytes, however, its effects in other organ systems during sepsis remain less clear. Utilizing Irg1 knockout mice that are deficient in synthesizing itaconate, we aimed at understanding the metabolic role of itaconate in the liver and systemically during sepsis. We find itaconate aids in lipid metabolism during sepsis. Specifically, Irg1 KO mice develop a heightened level of hepatic steatosis when induced with polymicrobial sepsis. Proteomics analysis reveal enhanced expression of enzymes involved in fatty acid oxidation in following 4-ocytl itaconate (4-OI) treatment in vitro. Downstream analysis reveals itaconate stabilizes the expression of the mitochondrial fatty acid uptake enzyme CPT1a, mediated by its hypoubiquitination. Chemoproteomic analysis revealed itaconate interacts with proteins involved in protein ubiquitination as a potential mechanism underlying its stabilizing effect on CPT1a. From a systemic perspective, we find itaconate deficiency triggers a hypothermic response following endotoxin stimulation, potentially mediated by brown adipose tissue (BAT) dysfunction. Finally, by use of metabolic cage studies, we demonstrate Irg1 KO mice rely more heavily on carbohydrates versus fatty acid sources for systemic fuel utilization in response to endotoxin treatment. Our data reveal a novel metabolic role of itaconate in modulating fatty acid oxidation during polymicrobial sepsis.

Project description:<p>The Krebs cycle-derived metabolite itaconate, whose production is catalyzed by immune response gene 1 (IRG1), has excellent potential to link immunity and metabolism in activated macrophages through alkylation or competitive inhibition of target proteins. In support of this, our previous study demonstrated that the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling platform functions as a hub in macrophage immunity and has a profound impact on the prognosis of sepsis. Interestingly, we found that itaconate, an endogenous immunomodulator, can significantly inhibit the activation of STING signaling. Moreover, 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI), which is a permeable itaconate derivative, could alkylate cysteine sites 65, 71, 88, and 147 of STING, thereby inhibiting its phosphorylation and downregulating the production of related inflammatory factors. Furthermore, itaconate and 4-OI inhibited the production of inflammatory factors in sepsis models. Our results have broadened the role of the IRG1-Itaconate axis in immunomodulation and highlighted itaconate and its derivatives as potential therapeutic agents in sepsis.</p>

Project description:Remodeling of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is a metabolic adaptation mechanism accompanying inflammatory macrophage activation. During this process, endogenous metabolites can adopt regulatory roles that govern specific aspects of inflammatory response, as recently shown for succinate, which regulates the downstream pro-inflammatory IL-1β-HIF1a axis. Itaconate is one of the most highly induced metabolites in activated macrophages, yet its functional significance remains unknown. Here, we show that itaconate modulates macrophage metabolism and effector functions via its effect on succinate dehydrogenase, by inhibiting conversion of succinate to fumarate. Through this action, itaconate exerts anti-inflammatory effects when administered in vitro and in vivo during macrophage activation and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Using newly generated Irg1-/- mice, which lack the ability to produce itaconate, we show that endogenous itaconate regulates succinate levels and function, changes in mitochondrial respiration, and inflammatory cytokine production during macrophage activation. These studies highlight itaconate as a major physiological regulator of the global metabolic rewiring and effector functions of inflammatory macrophages. Experiment 1: mature WT BMDM were treated for 12h with 0.25 mM dimethyl itaconate (DI) or vehicle (Unst) and then stimulated with LPS (E. coli 0111:B4; 100 ng/ml, 4h) (DI+LPS; LPS); Experiment 2: mature Irg1-/- BMDM were stimulated with LPS (E. coli 0111:B4; 100 ng/ml) and murine recombinant IFNg (50 ng/ml) for 24h.

Project description:Enhanced osteoclast-mediated bone erosion is a prominent hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis. Emerging evidence suggests that this process is facilitated by metabolic dysregulation of osteoclasts. The mitochondrial enzyme aconitate decarboxylase 1 (Acod1, also known as immune responsive gene 1 [Irg1]) serves as a mediator between the metabolic condition and the functional state of different types of cells. Acod1-deficient mice are characterized by enhanced osteoclast differentiation and bone erosion in an inflammatory arthritis model, while therapeutic treatment with the itaconate-derivative 4-octyl-itaconate (4-OI) alleviates the disease phenotype in experimental arthritis. To ascertain the influence of the Acod1-itaconate axis on the genomic transcriptional network of osteoclasts, we performed a whole transcriptome RNA sequencing analysis with fully differentiated osteoclasts from WT and Acod1-deficient mice that were cultured in the presence or absence of 4-OI.

Project description:To overcome oxidative, inflammatory, and metabolic stress, cells have evolved networks of cytoprotective proteins controlled by transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its main negative regulator the Kelch-like ECH associated protein 1 (Keap1). Here, we used high-resolution mass-spectrometry to characterize the proteomes of macrophages with altered Nrf2 status. Our analysis revealed significant differences among the genotypes in cellular metabolism and redox homeostasis, which we validated with Seahorse flux and metabolomics, as well as in anti-viral immune pathways, translational regulation and mitosis. Nrf2 disruption significantly affected the proteome following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, with alterations in redox, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and innate immunity predominantly. Of note, LPS stimulation was found to promote mitochondrial fusion in a process that was dependent on Nrf2. The Keap1 inhibitor, 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI), a derivative of the mitochondrial immunometabolite itaconate, remodeled the inflammatory macrophage proteome, increasing redox and suppressing anti-viral immune effectors in a Nrf2-dependent manner. These data suggest that Nrf2 activation facilitates metabolic reprogramming, mitochondrial adaptation, and finetunes the innate immune response in macrophages.

Project description:Activated macrophages switch from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis, similar to the Warburg effect, presenting a potential therapeutic target in inflammatory disease. The endogenous metabolite itaconate has recently been reported to regulate macrophage function, but its precise mechanism is not fully understood. Here, we showed that 4-octyl itaconate (OI, a cell-permeable itaconate derivative) directly alkylated cysteine residue 22 on the glycolytic enzyme GAPDH and decreased its enzyme activity. Glycolytic flux analysis by U13C‐glucose tracing also provided evidence that OI generated a blockade of glycolytic flux at GAPDH. OI thereby downregulates aerobic glycolysis in activated macrophages, which is required for its anti-inflammatory effects. The anti-inflammatory effects of OI were replicated by heptelidic acid, 2-DG and reversed by increasing wild-type but not C22A mutant GAPDH expression. OI protected against lipopolysaccharide-induced lethality in vivo and significantly inhibited cytokine release. These findings showed that itaconate is a critical immunometabolite that exerts anti-inflammatory effects by targeting GAPDH to decrease aerobic glycolysis in macrophages.

Project description:Here, we report that macrophage-derived itaconate exerts a significant suppressive effect on dendritic cell (DC) function. To delve deeper into the impact of itaconate on DCs, we treated bone marrow-derived dendritic cells with 4-OI, a derivative of itaconate, and conducted RNA-seq analysis. Gene-set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of 4-OI-treated DCs showed a general downregulation of innate immunity and immune-response pathways.
