Genetic variation in IL-4 activated tissue resident macrophages alters the epigenetic state to determine strain specific synergistic responses to LPS [scRNA-seq]


ABSTRACT: IL-4 activates tissue resident macrophages (TRMs) to mediate tissue repair and clearance of nematode infections in mice, but most studies have been performed on the C57BL/6 background. The natural genetic variation between C57BL/6 and BALB/c mouse strains can result in differences in allergic responses, parasite resistance, monocyte to macrophage conversion and response to IL-4 activation. Here, we investigated in vivo IL-4 activation in TRMs of the peritoneal cavity from C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice and find that C57BL/6 TRMs are surprisingly more transcriptionally responsive to IL-4 stimulation, with greater association of induced genes with super enhancers, induced enhancers and topologically associating domains (TAD) boundaries. IL-4-directed epigenomic remodeling showed NF-κB motif enrichment only in C57BL/6 TRMs. This resulted in an enhanced synergistic response upon in vitro lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure in IL-4 activated C57BL/6 TRMs but not for BALB/c, despite unstimulated BALB/c TRMs having a stronger transcriptional response to LPS than C57BL/6 TRMs. Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) analysis of mixed bone marrow chimeric mice indicates that transcriptional differences between C57BL/6 and BALB/c TRMs is cell intrinsic within the same tissue environment. Hence, genetic variation alters IL-4-induced cell intrinsic epigenetic reprogramming between C57BL/6 and BALB/c TRMs to regulate the magnitude of synergistic responses to LPS exposure.
