Endocardial cells function as antigen-presenting cells to promote zebrafish heart regeneration [dst93_scrnaseq]

ABSTRACT: In contrast to adult mammals, adult zebrafish are able to fully regenerate injured cardiac tissue, and this regeneration process requires an adequate and tightly controlled immune response. However, which immune aspects drive particular aspects of the regenerative response are unclear. Here, we report the participation and requirement of the antigen presentation-adaptive immunity axis during zebrafish cardiac regeneration. We found that, in addition to immune cells, endocardial cells start expressing antigen presentation genes following the initial innate immune response. Consistent with this finding, we observed that helper T cells, a.k.a. Cd4+ T cells, are closely associated with phosphoERK+ (pERK+) (i.e., activated) endocardial cells at these stages. We inactivated major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen presentation by generating cd74a; cd74b double mutants, which display a defective immune response. In these mutants, both Cd4+ T cells and pERK+ endocardial cells fail to efficiently infiltrate the injured tissue. Notably, this model of compromised antigen presentation exhibits additional defects in cardiac regeneration including reduced cardiomyocyte dedifferentiation and proliferation. Altogether, these findings reveal a necessary role for antigen presentation during zebrafish cardiac regeneration and point to an immune crosstalk between T cells and endocardial cells, thereby further establishing a link between the adaptive immune response and tissue regeneration.

Comparison of the expression profiles of kdrl:mCherry-positive cells in injured versus uninjured zebrafish cardiac ventricle and analysis of the expression prolife of postnb:citrin-positive cells upon injury compared to the rest of cardiac cells.

Project description:Contrary to mammals, zebrafish regenerate their heart upon cryoinjury of the cardiac ventricular apex. Regeneration is preceed by a fibrotic response. To understand the contribution of different cell sources to zebrafish cardiac fibrosis we performed an RNASeq including endocardial kdrl:mCherry cells from an uninjured heart, and activated endocardial kdrl:mCherry cells, postnb:citrine fibroblasts and the rest of the cells at 7 days post injury.

The innate immune regulator MyD88 dampens fibrosis during zebrafish heart regeneration (dst169)

Project description:The innate immune system is triggered rapidly after injury and its spatiotemporal dynamics are critical for successful regeneration. MyD88 is a key component of the innate immune response; however, its role during regeneration remains unclear. Here we show that MyD88 controls not only the inflammatory but also the fibrotic response during zebrafish cardiac regeneration. Our data reveal a significant reduction in pro-inflammatory neutrophil and macrophage populations, as well as the expansion of a collagen-rich endocardial population in cryoinjured myd88-/- ventricles. Consistent with these findings, we observed increased myofibroblasts, fibrin abundance, and scarring in myd88-/- ventricles. Transcriptomic analyses of endocardial cells and immunostaining experiments reveal compromised PI3K/AKT pathway activation in the myd88-/- endocardium. Moreover, loss of MyD88 impairs cardiomyocyte proliferation and protrusive activity towards the injured area. Notably, endothelial-specific overexpression of myd88 reverses the neutrophil, fibrotic, and scarring phenotypes in cryoinjured myd88-/- ventricles. Mechanistically, we identify the endocardial-derived chemokine gene cxcl18b as a transcriptional target of the MyD88-signaling axis and using loss- and gain-of-function tools show that it controls neutrophil recruitment. Altogether, these findings shed light on the pivotal role of MyD88 in modulating inflammation and fibrosis, thereby emphasizing the strong impact of the innate immune response during tissue regeneration.

Injury-activated endocardium plays structural and signalling roles in zebrafish heart regeneration

Project description:The zebrafish heart remarkably regenerates after a severe ventricular damage followed by inflammation, fibrotic tissue deposition and removal concomitant with cardiac muscle replacement. We have investigated the role of the endocardium in this regeneration process. 3D-whole mount imaging in injured hearts revealed that GFP-labelled endocardial cells in ET33mi-60A transgenic fish become rapidly activated and highly proliferative at 3 days post cryoinjury (dpci). Endocardial cells extensively expand within the injury site and organize to form a coherent structure at 9 dpci that persists throughout the regeneration process. Upon injury, endocardial cells strongly up-regulate the Notch pathway ligand delta like4 (dll4) and the Notch receptors notch1b, notch2 and notch3. Expression profiling showed that Notch signalling inhibition affects endocardial gene expression and genes related to extracellular matrix remodelling and inflammation. Gain- and loss-of-function experiments revealed that Notch is required for the organization of the endocardium, attenuation of the inflammatory response and cardiomyocyte proliferation. These results demonstrate a novel structural and signalling role for the endocardium during heart regeneration.

Sontag2017 - Dynamic model of immune responses to antigen presentation by tumor or pathogen

Project description:This model of the immune system response to antigen presentation is based on the publication: Eduardo D.Sontag (2017) 'A Dynamic Model of Immune Responses to Antigen Presentation Predicts Different Regions of Tumor or Pathogen Elimination', Cell Systems, 4(2) DOI: 10.1016/j.cels.2016.12.003 Comment: This model is based on the "toy model" as described by Equations 1A-1C from the manuscript and the system represented by Equation 2, which exhibits a type of incoherent feedforward loop (IFFL). Abstract: The immune system must discriminate between agents of disease and an organism’s healthy cells. While the identification of an antigen as self/non-self is critically important, the dynamic features of antigen presentation may also determine the immune system’s response. Here, we use a simple mathematical model of immune activation to explore the idea of antigen discrimination through dynamics. We propose that antigen presentation is coupled to two nodes, one regulatory and one effecting the immune response, through an incoherent feedforward loop and repressive feedback. This circuit would allow the immune system to effectively estimate the increase of antigens with respect to time, a key determinant of immune reactivity in vivo. Our model makes the prediction that tumors growing at specific rates evade the immune system despite the continuous presence of antigens indicating disease, a phenomenon closely related to clinically observed “two-zone tolerance.” Finally, we discuss a plausible biological instantiation of our circuit using combinations of regulatory and effector T cells.

Isaeva2008 - Modelling of Anti-Tumour Immune Response Immunocorrective Effect of Weak Centimetre Electromagnetic Waves

Project description:Modelling of anti-tumour immune response: Immunocorrective effect of weak centimetre electromagnetic waves O.G. Isaeva* and V.A. Osipov Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Dubna, Moscow Region, Russia We formulate the dynamical model for the anti-tumour immune response based on intercellular cytokine-mediated interactions with the interleukin-2 (IL-2) taken into account. The analysis shows that the expression level of tumour antigens on antigen presenting cells has a distinct influence on the tumour dynamics. At low antigen presentation, a progressive tumour growth takes place to the highest possible value. At high antigen presentation, there is a decrease in tumour size to some value when the dynamical equilibrium between the tumour and the immune system is reached. In the case of the medium antigen presentation, both these regimes can be realized depending on the initial tumour size and the condition of the immune system. A pronounced immunomodulating effect (the suppression of tumour growth and the normalization of IL-2 concentration) is established by considering the influence of low-intensity electromagnetic microwaves as a parametric perturbation of the dynamical system. This finding is in qualitative agreement with the recent experimental results on immunocorrective effects of centimetre electromagnetic waves in tumour-bearing mice.
