Estrogen-induced NETs promote aseptic inflammation via NKCC1 [human]

ABSTRACT: Although the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is caused by inflammation-related factors, it remains unclear whether endogenous hormones promote NET formation. Here, we investigate NET formation between infection-driven inflammatory endometrium and estrogen-induced hyperplastic endometrium by single-cell multiomics analysis. We identified a unique neutrophil subpopulation (CD24high neutrophil) involved in estrogen-driven NET formation. Estrogen-induced NETs mainly form due to the imbalance of histone caused by estrogen receptors. Inhibition of NETs significantly ameliorated endometrial hyperplasia (EH) in a murine model. Mechanistically, NETs promote cell proliferation by binding to NKCC1 on epithelial cells. Aspirin was screened to inhibit NET formation and alleviated EH in cynomolgus monkey. This study provides a novel nonhormone replacement therapy to treat patients with estrogen abnormalities by targeting NETs.

NETOME: The Molecular Characterization of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs)

Project description:Neutrophils are necessary in mamalian’s life and are the most abundant type of white blood cells in humans with biological roles relevant to inflammation and the entire host response. The release of neutrophil extracellular DNA in innate immune cells provides specific response to bacteria and fungi. Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) act as antimicrobial agents and activators of immune response through release of the nuclear content into the extracellular space. Although great strides have been made in dissecting cellular and molecular pathways that control NET formation, the exact molecular composition of released NETs has not been elucidated. Here, we open the field of NETOMIC studies through isolation of NETs in combination with shotgun genomics and proteomics. This study reveals the molecular composition of NETs and specific expression regions of NETs induced in a sterile inflammation system. The existence of an in vitro NET isolation model allowed for an unprecedented amount of replicability. Additional studies are needed to verify the specificity of these sequences in the context of human health and disease upon diverse neutrophil microbial challenges.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) promote macrophage inflammation and impair atherosclerosis resolution in mice with diabetes

Project description:Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) promote inflammation and atherosclerosis progression. In diabetes they are increased and impair wound healing, during which inflammation normally resolves. Atherosclerosis regression, a process resembling wound healing, is also impaired in diabetes. Thus, we hypothesized that NETs impede atherosclerosis regression in diabetes through unresolved inflammation. Objective: To investigate in diabetes the effect of NETs on plaque macrophage inflammation and whether NETs reduction improves atherosclerosis regression. Findings: Transcriptomic profiling of plaque macrophages from NET positive and negative areas in Ldlr-/- mice revealed inflammasome and glycolysis pathway upregulation, indicating a pro-inflammatory phenotype. During atherosclerosis regression in non-diabetic mice, plaque NET content decreased. In contrast, in diabetic mouse plaques NETs were enriched and persisted after lipid-lowering. DNase1 treatment (to degrade NETs) of diabetic mice reduced plaque NETs and macrophage inflammation and improved atherosclerosis regression after lipid-lowering. Conclusions: NETs decline during atherosclerosis regression in non-diabetic mice, but persist in diabetes and impair regression by exacerbating macrophage inflammation. DNase1 reduced diabetic plaque NETs and macrophage inflammation, and restored atherosclerosis resolution after lipid-lowering, despite ongoing hyperglycemia. Given that humans with diabetes also exhibit impaired atherosclerosis resolution with lipid-lowering, these data suggest that NETs contribute to the increased CVD risk in this population.

Chronic Stress Exacerbates Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy through Promoting NET formation [II]

Project description:Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is the leading cause of vascular dementia among the elderly. Neuropsychiatric symptoms are commonly manifested in CAA patients but are usually considered as consequences of CAA pathology. Here, we report that chronic stress promotes CAA progression, which enhances deposition of amyloid protein beta (Aβ) in brain blood vessels and exacerbates subsequent brain injury. Mechanistically, neutrophil is implicated in CAA development. Aβ that accumulated in brain vasculature induces neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) by activating STAT6 signaling, which inhibits neutrophil apoptosis and switches the programmed cell death toward NETosis. During chronic stress, circulatory Norepinephrine (NE) strengthens STAT6 activation in neutrophil and promotes NET formation, thus exacerbates the NET-dependent angiopathy. We demonstrate that inhibiting neutrophil chemotaxis towards brain or suppressing NET formation both ameliorate CAA severity in the context of chronic stress. Therefore, we propose that stress-associated psychological disorders and NETs are promising therapeutic targets in CAA.

RNA Sequencing reveals transcriptome profiling of HUVECs in response to NETs ± defibrotide

Project description:We reported the application of RNA sequecing to broadly understand the pathways associated with HUVECs exposed to vehicle, NETs, or NETs + defibrotide. We identified 440 differentially expressed genes (300 upregulated) in HUVECs upon NET stimulation as compared with vehicle. Conversely, there were 229 differentially expressed genes (192 downregulated) when the NETs + defibrotide group was compared to NETs alone.

Characterization of neutrophil extracellular trap-associated RNA, a novel DAMP acting in concert with the antimicrobial peptide LL37 as intentional but self-limiting drivers of inflammation

Project description:Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a key antimicrobial feature of cellular innate immunity mediated by polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs). NETs trap and kill microbes but have also been linked to inflammation in atherosclerosis, arthritis, or psoriasis by unknown mechanisms. We here report that NET-associated RNA (naRNA, which was RNA-sequenced from human primary neutrophil NETs here) stimulated further NET formation in naïve PMNs via a unique TLR8-NLRP3-caspase-1-gasdermin D-dependent inflammasome pathway. Keratinocytes also responded to naRNA with expression of psoriasis-related genes (e.g. IL17, IL36) via atypical NOD2-RIPK signaling. In vivo naRNA drove skin inflammation, which was drastically ameliorated by genetic ablation of RNA sensing. The naRNA-LL37 ‘composite DAMP’ was pre-stored in resting neutrophil granules, defining sterile NETs as intentionally inflammatory webs that amplify neutrophil activation. However, the activity of the naRNA-LL37 DAMP was transient and hence supposedly self-limiting under physiological conditions. Only upon dysregulated NET release like psoriasis, TLR-NLRP3-mediated naRNA sensing may represent both potential cause of disease and new intervention target.

Characterization of Early-Phase Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Urinary Tract Infections

Project description:Neutrophils have an important role in rapid antimicrobial defenses against and resolution of urinary tract infections (UTIs). We show that a mechanism known as neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation is a strategy to combat pathogens in the urinary tract. Viscous aggregates that were present in human urine sediments revealed high extracellular DNA content. The DNA formed a scaffold to which antimicrobial effector proteins derived from different neutrophil subcellular compartments bound. Treatment with deoxyribonuclease I solubilized these structures. We observed massive proteolytic degradation in the NETs with apparently dominant roles for the neutrophil granule proteases elastase, proteinase 3, and cathepsin G. In a UTI case with Staphylococcus aureus as the infectious agent, high abundance of autolysins and immune evasion factors in a cell-free NET extract suggested that controlled cell wall autolysis plays a role in derailing the host immune response and allows some bacterial cells to survive following entrapment in NETs.

Hydrogen gas inhibits the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps

Project description:Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contribute to inflammatory pathogenesis, especially in infectious and cardiovascular diseases. H2 gas acts as an antioxidant and has been clinically and experimentally proven to ameliorate inflammation. Therefore, we investigated whether H2 gas could inhibit NET formation associated with excessive neutrophil activation. Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated human neutrophils exposed to H2 exhibited reduced citrullination of histones, membrane disruption by chromatin complexes, and release of NET components over controls. Mechanistically, H2 suppressed the phosphorylation of Ser-139 residue in H2AX, a marker of DNA damage, thereby reducing the expression of CXC-chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) in PMA-stimulated neutrophils. Along with the upregulation of CXCR4, the intracellular content of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and the production of MPO-derived hypochlorous acid (HOCl) was increased; however, these effects were markedly suppressed in H2-exposed cultures. Thus, H2 neutralized HOCl produced by the oxidative burst, inhibited DNA damage, and subsequently inhibited NET formation. We further confirmed that inhalation of H2 inhibited the formation and release of NET components in the blood and bronchoalveolar lavage of a lipopolysaccharide-induced sepsis model in mice and aged minipigs. Therefore, H2 therapy has the potential to be a new therapeutic agent for inflammatory diseases involving NETs associated with excessive neutrophil activation.

Neutrophil extracellular traps induce glomerular endothelial cell dysfunction and pyroptosis in diabetic kidney disease

Project description:Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a network structure composed of loose chromatin and embedded with multiple proteins. Here, we observed increased NETs deposition in the glomeruli of DKD patients and diabetic mice (streptozotocin-induced or db/db mice). After degrading NETs with DNase I, diabetic mice exhibited attenuated glomerulopathy and glomerular endothelial cell (GEC) injury. We also observed alleviated glomerulopathy and GEC injury in peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4)-knockout mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. In vitro, NET-induced GEC pyroptosis was characterized by pore formation in the cell membrane, dysregulation of multiple genes involved in cell membrane function, and high expression of pyroptosis-related proteins. Strengthening the GEC surface charge by oleylamine significantly inhibited NET-induced GEC pyroptosis. These results indicate that NET-induced alterations in GEC charge are associated with GEC pyroptosis in the pathogenesis of DKD and suggest that NETs are a potential therapeutic target for DKD.
