IL-8+ neutrophils drive inexorable inflammation in severe alcohol-associated hepatitis [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Patients with alcohol-associated liver cirrhosis (AC) may develop severe alcohol-associated hepatitis (sAH), but the mechanisms underlying the transition from AC to sAH still remain unclear. We performed single cell RNA (scRNA) sequencing analysis of livers and peripheral white blood cells (WBC) from sAH and AC patients. We found that the significant difference between sAH and AC was that sAH livers had a markedly higher number of neutrophil subsets than AC livers. Thus, we further focused on the neutrophil cluster and found two distinct sAH-specific liver neutrophils are notably characterized by heightened expression of CXCL8 (IL-8) defined as IL-8+ neutrophils blood. Our current study has demonstrated that sAH had self-sustaining IL-8+ neutrophil accumulation that likely drives inexorable liver inflammation and failure in sAH. Based on our study, we believe targeting IL-8+ neutrophils is a promising therapeutic strategy for sAH.

Characterization and Function of Neutrophils in Alcoholic Hepatitis in Humans and Mice: Roles for Neutrophilic p47phox in Disease Progression

Project description:Intrahepatic neutrophil infiltration has been implicated in the pathogenesis of severe alcoholic hepatitis (SAH), a disease with high short-term morality; however, how neutrophils contribute to SAH progression remain obscure. This study aimed to characterize intrahepatic neutrophil infiltration and its involvement in AH pathogenesis. We found that hepatic expression of neutrophil cytosolic factor 1 (NCF1), a key factor in controlling neutrophilic ROS production, was upregulated and correlated with neutrophil number, inflammation and ROS-associated genes in SAH patients. Ncf1 floxed mice were generated using CRISPR/Cas9 technology by inserting two LoxP sequences into intron 1 and intron 8 of the mouse Ncf1 gene, then crossed with Lyz Cre mice to generated myeloid cell-specific Ncf1 knockout (Ncf1Lyz-/-) mice. The LyzCre negative Ncf1 floxed mice were used as corresponding WT littermate control. The chronic-plus-binge ethanol feeding model was used in this study. The total RNAs were extracted from ETOH-fed 5 WT and 4 Ncf1Lyz-/- mouse livers and submitted for a Poly(A) RNA sequencing. Genetic deletion of the Ncf1 gene in neutrophils abolished hepatic ROS, inflammation, and fibrosis induced by ethanol feeding. RNA-sequencing analysis and the data from experimental models revealed that neutrophilic NCF1-dependent ROS promoted alcoholic liver injury by inhibiting AMP-activated protein kinase (a key regulator of lipid metabolism) and microRNA-223 (a key anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic microRNA). Our data suggest that divergent pathogeneses exist in SAH and neutrophilic NCF1-dependent ROS promotes alcoholic liver injury by inhibiting AMPK and microRNA-223.

Neutrophil extracellular trap induction by alcohol generates unique low-density neutrophils with defective functions and impaired clearance contributing to liver damage in alcoholic hepatitis

Project description:Alcoholic hepatitis (AH) is characterized by severe liver and systemic inflammation and high mortality. Although numerous studies correlated neutrophil counts with poor clinical outcomes, the role of neutrophils in AH is poorly understood. Here, we report that neutrophils contribute to liver damage through increased neutrophils extracellular traps (NET) production in AH patients and mouse models with a concordant significant increase of low-density neutrophils (LDNs) in AH patients. Transcriptome analysis revealed that high-density neutrophils (HDNs) are activated and more prone to release NET, whereas LDNs exhibit exhausted phenotype. We show that alcohol-induced NET release in HDNs induces a unique LDN subset with decreased functionality and reduced clearance. Elimination of both defective HDNs and LDNs through in vivo neutrophil depletion or prevention of NET production with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) treatment ameliorate alcohol-induced liver damage. Our findings uncover alcohol-induced neutrophil phenotypic changes and provide mechanistic insights for therapeutic interventions in AH.

Neutrophil-derived IL-1β is sufficient for abscess formation in immunity against Staphylococcus aureus in mice

Project description:Neutrophil abscess formation is critical in innate immunity against many pathogens. Here, the mechanism of neutrophil abscess formation was investigated using a mouse model of Staphylococcus aureus cutaneous infection. Gene expression analysis of S. aureus-infected skin revealed that induction of neutrophil recruitment genes was largely dependent upon IL-1beta/IL-1R activation. Unexpectedly, using IL 1beta reporter mice, neutrophils were identified as the primary source of IL-1beta at the site of infection. Furthermore, IL-1beta-producing neutrophils were necessary and sufficient for abscess formation and bacterial clearance. S. aureus-induced IL 1beta production by neutrophils required TLR2, NOD2, FPRs and the ASC/NLRP3 inflammasome. Taken together, IL-1beta and neutrophil abscess formation during an infection are functionally, spatially and temporally linked as a consequence of direct IL-1beta production by neutrophils. Lesional skin biopsies obtained from C57BL/6J WT mice or IL-1R-deficient mice at 4 hours post-infection with Staphylococcus aureus. Uninfected skin biopsies were also collected from WT and IL-1R-deficient mice.

Ly6C high monocytes and their macrophage descendants regulate neutrophil function and clearance in acetaminophen-induced liver injury

Project description:Monocyte-derived macrophages play a pivotal role in the resolution of Acetaminophen-Induced Liver Injury (AILI). Timely termination of neutrophil activity and their clearance are essential for liver regeneration following injury. Here, we show that infiltrating Ly6Chi monocytes, their macrophage descendants, and neutrophils spatially and temporally overlap in the centrilobular necrotic areas during the necro-inflammatory and resolution phases of AILI. We utilized MC-21 anti mouse CCR2 to induce the ablation of circulating Ly6Chi monocytes. RNA sequencing-based profiling of neutrophils from Ly6Chi monocyte-deficient(MC-21 treated mice) versus normal livers (PBS-treated mice) revealed 449 genes that were differentially expressed with at least two-fold change (p ≤ 0.05). Nutrophils from monocyte-ablated livers exhibited decreased expression of NADPH Oxidase 2. Moreover, in the absence of Ly6Chi monocytes, neutrophils exhibited an altered transcriptomic profile associated with reduced innate activity concomitantly with increased cell survival.Collectively, our findings reveal that liver-infiltrating Ly6Chi monocytes regulating neutrophil activity and survival following AILI.

Bioenergetic mechanisms of alcohol-associated cirrhosis in patient derived hepatocytes

Project description:One in five heavy drinkers develop alcohol-associated cirrhosis. Metabolism, inflammation, signaling, gut microbiome and genetic variations have all been tied to pathogenesis but alcohol-associated cirrhosis (AC) models in rodents are limited by differences between rodent species and humans in genetic background and bioenergetics. Here, we used iPSC derived hepatocytes (iHLCs) as a tool to understand mechanisms of AC injury, hypothesizing that iHLC’s derived from patients would preserve genetic and bioenergetic differences leading to AC, and as compared to iHLC’s from patients free of liver disease. Bioenergetically, AC iHLCs had lower spare capacity for mitochondrial respiration and produced less ATP. Metabolic capacities of AC iHLC mitochondria for glutamine and fatty acids were reduced. Together with genome wide association (GWAS) studies, these metabolic and histologic profiles of AC derived iHLCs suggest that differences in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and lipid droplet formation predispose to AC.

Hepatic transcriptome profiles of ethanol-treated mice with HMGB1 knockout in hepatocytes and/or macrophages

Project description:Background: We previously identified that high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is increased and undergoes post-translational modifications (PTMs) in response to alcohol consumption. Here we hypothesized that specific PTMs, occurring mostly in hepatocytes and myeloid cells, could contribute to the pathogenesis of alcohol-associated liver disease (AALD). Methods: We used the Lieber-DeCarli (LDC) model of early alcohol-induced liver injury, combined with engineered viral vectors and genetic approaches to regulate the expression of HMGB1, its PTMs (reduced [H], oxidized [O], acetylated [Ac], both [O+Ac]), and its receptors (RAGE, TLR4) in a cell-specific manner (hepatocytes and/or myeloid cells). Results: Hmgb1 ablation in hepatocytes or myeloid cells partially protected, while ablation in both prevented steatosis, inflammation, IL1B production, and alcohol-induced liver injury. Hepatocytes were a major source of [H], [O], and [Ac] HMGB1, whereas myeloid cells produced only [H] and [Ac] HMGB1. Neutralization of HMGB1 prevented, whereas injection of [H] HMGB1 increased AALD, which was worsened by injection of [O] HMGB1. While [O] HMGB1 induced liver injury, [Ac] HMGB1 protected and counteracted the effects of [O] HMGB1 in AALD. [O] HMGB1 stimulated macrophage (MF) migration, activation, IL1B production and secretion. Ethanol-fed RageΔMye but not Tlr4ΔMye, RageΔHep, or Tlr4ΔHep mice were protected from AALD, indicating a crucial role of RAGE in myeloid cells for AALD. [O] HMGB1 recruited and activated myeloid cells through RAGE and contributed to steatosis, inflammation, and IL1B production in AALD. Conclusion: These results provide evidence for targeting [O] HMGB1 of hepatocyte origin as a ligand for RAGE signaling in myeloid cells and a driver of steatosis, inflammatory cell infiltration, and IL1B production in AALD. Importantly, we reveal that [Ac] HMGB1 offsets the noxious effects of [O] HMGB1 in AALD.

Vectorial secretion of interleukin-8 (IL-8 or CXCL8) mediates homeostatic effects on the intestinal epithelium via apically located CXCR1

Project description:CXCL8 is produced by many cell types including epithelial, endothelial, fibroblasts and macrophages in response to TLR recognition of microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) or inflammatory cytokines and recruits phagocytes from the vasculature to sites of infection via interaction with its cognate receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2. In the intestine, CXCL8 has been demonstrated to participate in the migration of neutrophils across the epithelium during acute inflammation. Given the well-recognized role of CXCL8 as an initiator of inflammation and the constant presence of commensal bacteria in the intestinal tract, we hypothesized that in the intestinal epithelium, CXCL8 might be secreted in a vectorial fashion depending on the location and type of stimulus as a mechanism to maintain homeostasis. In addition, we hypothesized that the CXCR1 receptor might control specific functions in polarized IECs depending on its location. We tested these hypotheses using microarray gene expression profiling of IL-8 treated and mock-treated Caco-2 cell lines This study was set up according to a one-treatment, one-control design. It contains individual transcriptional profiles from 3 IL-8-treated and 3 buffer control-treated samples. In total, this study includes data from 3 Caco-2 samples x 2 treatments=6 arrays.

Transcriptome kinetics of circulating neutrophils during human experimental endotoxemia

Project description:Polymorphonuclear cells (neutrophils) play an important role in the systemic inflammatory response syndrome and the development of sepsis. These cells are essential for the defense against microorganisms, but may also cause tissue damage. Therefore, neutrophil numbers and activity are considered to be tightly regulated. Previous studies have investigated gene transcription during experimental endotoxemia in whole blood and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. However, the gene transcription response of the circulating pool of neutrophils to systemic inflammatory stimulation in vivo is currently unclear. We examined neutrophil gene transcription kinetics in healthy human subjects (n=4) administered a single dose of endotoxin (LPS, 2 ng/kg iv). In addition, freshly isolated neutrophils were stimulated ex vivo with LPS, TNFM-NM-1, G-CSF and GM-CSF to identify stimulus-specific gene transcription responses. Whole transcriptome microarray analysis of circulating neutrophils at 2, 4 and 6 hours after LPS infusion revealed activation of inflammatory networks which are involved in signaling of TNFM-NM-1 and IL-1M-NM-1 and IL-1M-NM-2. The transcriptome profile of inflammatory activated neutrophils in vivo reflects extended survival and regulation of inflammatory responses. We show that these changes in neutrophil transcriptome are most likely due to a combination of early activation of circulating neutrophils by TNFM-NM-1 and G-CSF and a mobilization of young neutrophils from the bone marrow. After LPS infusion blood was taken at t=0, t=2, t=4 and t=6 hours. Neutrophils were isolated and gene expression of these cells was assessed. T=2, t=4 and t=6 were related to t=0 as control condition
