Defining Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cell-Induced Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells Using Single-Cell Transcriptomics

ABSTRACT: Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) modulate the immune response through interactions with innate immune cells. We previously demonstrated that MSCs alleviate ocular autoimmune inflammation by directing BM cell differentiation from pro-inflammatory CD11bhiLy6ChiLy6Glo cells into immunosuppressive CD11bmidLy6CmidLy6Glo cells. Herein, we analyzed MSC-induced CD11bmidLy6Cmid cells using single-cell RNA sequencing and compared them with CD11bhiLy6Chi cells. Our investigation revealed 7 distinct immune cell types including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in the CD11bmidLy6Cmid cells, while CD11bhiLy6Chi cells included mostly monocytes/macrophages with a small cluster of neutrophils. These MSC-induced MDSCs highly expressed Retnlg, Cxcl3, Cxcl2, Mmp8, Cd14 and Csf1r as well as Arg1. Comparative analyses of CSF-1RhiCD11bmidLy6Cmid and CSF-1RloCD11bmidLy6Cmid cells demonstrated that the former had a homogeneous monocyte morphology and produced elevated levels of IL-10. Functionally, these CSF-1RhiCD11bmidLy6Cmid cells, compared with the CSF-1RloCD11bmidLy6Cmid cells, inhibited CD4+ T cell proliferation and promoted CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg expansion in culture and in a mouse model of experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis. RELM-γ encoded by Retnlg, one of the highly-upregulated genes in MSC-induced MDSCs, had no direct effects on T cell proliferation, Treg expansion or splenocyte activation. Together, our study revealed a distinct transcriptional profile of MSC-induced MDSCs and identified CSF-1R as a key cell-surface marker for detection and therapeutic enrichment of MDSCs.

Project description:Tumor growth is associated with a profound alteration of myelopoiesis, leading to recruitment of immunosuppressive cells known as myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Analyzing the cytokines affecting myelo-monocytic differentiation produced by various experimental tumors, we found that GM-CSF, G-CSF, and IL-6 allowed a rapid generation of MDSCs from precursors present in mouse and human bone marrow (BM). BM-MDSCs induced by GM-CSF+IL-6 possessed the highest tolerogenic activity, as revealed by the ability to impair the priming of IFN- -producing CD8+ T cells upon in vivo adoptive transfer. Moreover, adoptive transfer of syngeneic, GM-CSF+IL-6-conditioned MDSCs to diabetic mice transplanted with allogeneic pancreatic islets resulted in long term acceptance of the allograft and correction of the diabetic status. Cytokines inducing MDSCs acted on a common molecular pathway. Immunoregulatory activity of both tumor-induced and BM-derived MDSCs was entirely dependent on C/EBP transcription factor, a key component of the emergency myelopoiesis triggered by stress and inflammation. Adoptive transfer of tumor antigen-specific CD8+ T lymphocytes resulted in therapy of established tumors only in mice lacking C/EBP in myeloid compartment. These data unveil another link between inflammation and cancer and identify a novel molecular target to control tumor-induced immune suppression. We used gene expression analysis to identify those factors, secreted by tumor-infiltrating MDSC, which could drive emathopoiesis. Moreover we compare gene expression profile of tumor-induced MDSC, obtained from either the spleen and the tumor infiltrate of tumor bearing mice, and in vitro bone marrow-derived MDSC. CD11b+ cells were immunomagnetically enriched from various murine tissue and experimental conditions, and cRNA samples were prepared accordingly to Expression Analysis: Technical Manual. 701021 Rev. 5. Santa Clara, CA, Affymetrix; 2004, and hybridized to the Affymetrix GeneChip MOE430 2.0 array which contains more than 45,000 probe sets, representing more than 34,000 genes. CD11b+ cells obtained from the spleen of healthy BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice were used as reference sample for tumor induced CD11b+ MDSC, enriched from either the spleen and the tumor infiltrate of tumor-bearing mice. Moreover CD11b+ cells enriched from fresh bone marrow were used as reference sample for in vitro bone marrow-differentiated MDSC, obtained with either GM-CSF+IL-6 and GM-CSF+G-CSF 4 days cytokine cocktail treatment.
