Adiponectin pathway activation dampens inflammation and enhances alveolar macrophage fungal killing via LC3-associated phagocytosis

ABSTRACT: Although innate immunity is critical for antifungal host defense against the human opportunistic fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus, potentially damaging inflammation must be controlled. Adiponectin (APN) is an anti-inflammatory adipokine, and we observed 100% mortality and increased fungal burden and inflammation in neutropenic mice with invasive aspergillosis (IA) that lack APN or the APN receptors AdipoR1 or AdipoR2. Alveolar macrophages (AMs), early immune sentinels that detect and respond to lung infection, express both receptors, and APN-/- AMs exhibited an inflammatory/M1 phenotype that was associated with decreased fungal killing and decreased activation of LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP). Furthermore, AM treatment with the AdipoR agonist AdipoRon partially rescued deficient killing in APN-/- AMs that was dependent on both receptors. Our study identifies a novel role for APN in LC3-mediated killing of A.fumigatus.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is protected from NADPH oxidase and LC3-associated phagocytosis by the LCP protein CpsA

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis’success as a pathogen comes from itsability to evade degradation by macrophages. Normally macro-phages clear microorganisms that activate pathogen-recognitionreceptors (PRRs) through a lysosomal-trafficking pathway called“LC3-associated phagocytosis”(LAP). AlthoughM.tuberculosisac-tivates numerous PRRs, for reasons that are poorly understoodLAP does not substantially contribute toM.tuberculosiscontrol.LAP depends upon reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated byNADPH oxidase, butM.tuberculosisfails to generate a robustoxidative response. Here, we show that CpsA, a LytR-CpsA-Psr(LCP) domain-containing protein, is required forM.tuberculosisto evade killing by NADPH oxidase and LAP. Unlike phagosomescontaining wild-type bacilli, phagosomes containing theΔcpsAmutant recruited NADPH oxidase, produced ROS, associated withLC3, and matured into antibacterial lysosomes. Moreover, CpsAwas sufficient to impair NADPH oxidase recruitment to fungal par-ticles that are normally cleared by LAP. Intracellular survival of theΔcpsAmutant was largely restored in macrophages missing LAPcomponents (Nox2,Rubicon,Beclin,Atg5,Atg7,orAtg16L1) butnot in macrophages defective in a related, canonical autophagypathway (Atg14,Ulk1,orcGAS). TheΔcpsAmutant was highlyimpaired in vivo, and its growth was partially restored in micedeficient in NADPH oxidase,Atg5,orAtg7, demonstrating thatCpsA makes a significant contribution to the resistance ofM.tu-berculosisto NADPH oxidase and LC3 trafficking in vivo. Overall,our findings reveal an essential role of CpsA in innate immuneevasion and suggest that LCP proteins have functions beyond theirpreviously known role in cell-wall metabolism.

Uncoupling of IL-6 signaling and LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) drives immunoparalysis during sepsis

Project description:Immune deactivation of phagocytes is a central event in pathogenesis of sepsis that remains molecularly unexplored. In particular, how cytokine deregulation induced by sepsis compromises the microbicidal activity of phagocytes and results in secondary infections by opportunistic bacterial and fungal pathogens is incompletely understood. Herein, we identify a master regulatory role of cytokine signaling on LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP), and reveal that uncoupling of these two processes during sepsis induces immunoparalysis in monocytes/macrophages.

Omega 3, 6 long-chain fatty acid imbalance delays neurovascular development in hyperglycemia-associated retinopathy

Project description:There is a gap in our understanding of the protective effect of the essential ω-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LCPUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on proliferative retinopathies. In retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), DHA supplementation alone may not reduce the risk for severe disease. We found that in mouse neonates with hyperglycemia-associated retinopathy (HAR) with impaired retinal vessel growth modeling Phase I ROP versus controls, there was a strong metabolic shift in almost all types of retinal neuronal cells identified with single-cell transcriptomics. Loss of adiponectin (Apn-/-), modeling low APN seen in premature infants, caused a ω-3 and ω-6 LCPUFA imbalance in HAR mouse retinas. Dietary intake of ω-3 vs ω-6 LCPUFA promoted retinal vessel growth, associated with increased APN levels and increased retinal APN receptor AdipoR1 gene expression. Interestingly, we found that ω-6 vs. ω-3 LCPUFA was essential in maintaining retinal metabolism and neuronal development. Our findings suggest that both ω-3 and ω-6 LCPUFA are essential in protecting against retinal neurovascular dysfunction in Phase I ROP model. Maintaining adequate ω-6 LCPUFA levels is required while supplementing ω-3 LCPUFA to prevent retinopathy.

Functional expression of membrane alanyl-aminopeptidase (CD13/APN) promotes tumor cell proliferation and neoangiogenesis in malignant gliomas.

Project description:Malignant gliomas are characterized by marked neovascularization and increased tumor cell proliferation. Recently, membrane alanyl-aminopeptidase (CD13/APN) has been identified to play a crucial role in neoangiogenesis. In this study, we show that among various central nervous system tumors, malignant astrocytomas are unique in their high expression levels of functionally active CD13/APN. CD13/APN was found in both tumor cells and tumor vessels of malignant astrocytomas, while in low-grade astrocytomas only endothelial cells of tumor vessels expressed CD13/APN. Inhibitors of the enzymatic activity of CD13/APN significantly reduced the proliferation of U87MG and U138MG malignant glioma cells. Inhibition of CD13/APN mRNA expression by siRNA in glioma cells co-cultured with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) effectively decreased blood vessel formation. Pro-angiogenic factors like bFGF and VEGF induced CD13/APN expression in glioma cells. Treatment of U87MG and U138MG cells with CD13/APN inhibitors resulted in an increased mRNA expression of VEGF and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGF-R2) in these cells. Taken together, these findings provide evidence that CD13/APN promotes tumor cell proliferation and blood vessel formation in malignant astrocytomas. Remarkably, inhibition of CD13/APN induces an angiogenic expression profile via an autocrine feed-back mechanism involving the VEGF/VEGF-R2 system in malignant gliomas.

SPHINGOSINE 1-PHOSPHATE MEDIATES ADIPONECTIN RECEPTOR SIGNALING ESSENTIAL FOR LIPID HOMEOSTASIS AND EMBRYOGENESIS

Project description:Cells and organisms require proper membrane composition to function and develop. Phospholipids are the major component of membranes and are primarily acquired through the diet. Given great variability in diet composition, cells must be able to deploy mechanisms that correct deviations from optimal membrane composition and properties. Here, using unbiased lipidomics and proteomics, we found that the embryonic lethality in mice lacking the fluidity regulators Adiponectin Receptors 1 and 2 (AdipoR1/2) is associated with aberrant high saturation of the membrane phospholipids. Using mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) derived from AdipoR1/2-KO embryos, human cell lines and the model organism C. elegans we found that, mechanistically, AdipoR1/2-derived sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) signals in parallel through S1PR3-SREBP1 and PPARγ to sustain the expression of the fatty acid desaturase SCD and maintain membrane properties. Thus, our work identifies an evolutionary conserved pathway by which cells and organism maintain membrane homeostasis and adapt to a variable environment.

The Lung Microenvironment Instructs Gene Transcription in Neonatal and Adult Alveolar Macrophages

Project description:Immaturity of alveolar macrophages (AMs) around birth contributes to the susceptibility of newborns to lung disease. However, the molecular features differentiating neonatal and mature, adult AMs are poorly understood. Here we identify the unique transcriptomes and enhancer landscapes of neonatal and adult AMs. While the core AM signature was similar, adult AMs expressed higher levels of genes involved in lipid metabolism, while neonatal AMs expressed a largely proinflammatory gene profile. Open enhancer regions identified by ATAC-seq contained motifs for nuclear receptors, MITF, and STAT in adult AMs and AP-1 and NF-kB in neonatal AMs. Intranasal LPS activated a similar innate immune response in both neonates and adults, with higher basal expression of inflammatory genes in neonates. The lung microenvironment drove many of the distinguishing gene expression and open chromatin characteristics of neonatal and adult AMs. Neonatal AMs retained high expression of some proinflammatory genes, suggesting the differences in neonatal AMs result from both inherent cell properties and environmental influences.

Exogenous remodeling of the lung macrophage microenvironment protects against infectious consequences of bone marrow ablative chemotherapy

Project description:Infection is the single greatest threat to survival during cancer chemotherapy because of depletion of bone marrow derived immune cells. In the absence of phagocytes such as neutrophil, vaccine-induced humoral and cellular anti-pathogen immunity are compromised. Using a model of vaccine-induced protection against lethal P. aeruginosa pneumonia in the setting of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, we found a population of resident lung macrophages in the immunized lung that mediated protection in the absence of neutrophils, bone marrow derived monocytes, or antibodies. These vaccine-induced macrophages (ViMs) expanded after immunization, locally proliferated, and were closely related to alveolar macrophages (AMs) by surface phenotype and gene expression profiles. By contrast to AMs, numbers of ViMs were stable through chemotherapy, show enhanced phagocytic activity, and prolonged survival of neutropenic mice from lethal P. aeruginosa pneumonia upon intratracheal adoptive transfer. Thus, induction of ViMs by tissue macrophage remodeling may become a framework for new strategies to activate immune-mediated reserves against infection in immunocompromised hosts.
