An ageing bone marrow exacerbates lung fibrosis via a dysregulated regulatory T cell driven axis, fuelling profibrotic macrophage persistence

ABSTRACT: Pulmonary fibrosis is an incurable disease, which increasingly manifests with advanced age. Yet, how the ageing hematopoietic niche influences immune cell function and fibrosis progression in the lungs remains elusive. Using heterochronic transplant mouse models, we discovered that an aged bone marrow exacerbates lung fibrosis irrespective of lung tissue age. Upon lung injury, there was an increased pulmonary infiltration of monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (Mo-AMs) from an aged bone marrow. These Mo-AMs displayed an enhanced profibrotic profile and a delayed transition in acquiring a homeostatic tissue-resident phenotype. This impaired Mo-AM differentiation was attributed to diminished numbers of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and the reduced availability of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 in the lung microenvironment of mice engrafted with aged bone marrow. Mechanistically, we show that Tregs are crucial providers of IL-10 that promote timely Mo-AM maturation and attenuate fibrosis progression. Our findings demonstrate the critical influence of an aged bone marrow on the development of lung fibrosis and identify a Treg-mediated resolutory axis as a potential therapeutic target for accelerated tissue repair.

An ageing bone marrow exacerbates lung fibrosis via a dysregulated regulatory T cell driven axis, fuelling profibrotic macrophage persistence.

Tff1-expressing Tregs in lung prevents exacerbation of Bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Bleomycin (BLM) induces lung injury, leading to inflammation and pulmonary fibrosis. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) maintain self-tolerance and control host immune responses. However, little is known about their involvement in the pathology of pulmonary fibrosis. Here we show that a unique Treg subset that expresses trefoil factor family 1(Tff1) emerges in the BLM-injured lung. These Tff1-expressing Tregs (Tff1-Tregs) were induced by IL-33. Moreover, although Tff1 ablation in Tregs had no impact, selective ablation of Tff1-Tregs using an intersectional genetic method promoted pro-inflammatory features of macrophages in the injured lung and exacerbated the fibrosis. Taken together, our study revealed the presence of a unique Treg subset expressing Tff1 in BLM-injured lungs and their critical role in the injured lung to ameliorate fibrosis.

Transcription repressor Bach2 is required for pulmonary surfactant homeostasis and alveolar macrophage function.

Project description:Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) results from a dysfunction of alveolar macrophages (AMs), chiefly due to disruptions in the signaling of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). We found that mice deficient for the B lymphoid transcription repressor BTB and CNC homology 2 (Bach2) developed PAP-like accumulation of surfactant proteins in the lungs. Bach2 was expressed in AMs, and Bach2-deficient AMs showed alterations in lipid handling in comparison with wild-type (WT) cells. Although Bach2-deficient AMs showed a normal expression of the genes involved in the GM-CSF signaling, they showed an altered expression of the genes involved in chemotaxis, lipid metabolism, and alternative M2 macrophage activation with increased expression of Ym1 and arginase-1, and the M2 regulator Irf4. Peritoneal Bach2-deficient macrophages showed increased Ym1 expression when stimulated with interleukin-4. More eosinophils were present in the lung and peritoneal cavity of Bach2-deficient mice compared with WT mice. The PAP-like lesions in Bach2-deficient mice were relieved by WT bone marrow transplantation even after their development, confirming the hematopoietic origin of the lesions. These results indicate that Bach2 is required for the functional maturation of AMs and pulmonary homeostasis, independently of the GM-CSF signaling. WT (n=8) and Bach2KO (n=3) AMs. One expreriment was performed.

Gene expression profile of alveolar macrophages (AM) from bleomycin treated mice.

Project description:Osteopontin (OPN, Spp1-/-) is considered detrimental in pulmonary fibrosis. However, effect of OPN produced by AMs during pulmonary fibrosis is not known. We used bulk RNA sequencing to analyze the effect of OPN in AMs from bleomycin treated mice.

Investigating the role of aging and lung fibrosis in Endothelial Cells with RNA sequencing

Project description:In order to elucidate the contribute of the pulmonary vasculature to lung fibrosis, we injured young and aged mice with bleomycine, to create a model of resolving versus persistent lung fibrosis. The animals were sacrificed 30 days after the injury (time point in which we observed a divergent resolving vs persistent lung fibrosis in young vs aged mice). We found that lung fibrosis resolution in young mice was accompained by the activation of transcriptional programs promoting vascular repair and lung fibrosis resolution. Lung endothelial cells from aged mice after injury failed to activate these programs, leading to dysrepair and progressive fibrosis.

Studies on bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in mice

Project description:We perfomed a microRNA microarray on to assess differentially expressed miRNAs in bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in mice. To induce pulmonary fibrosis, belomycine (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO) was dissolved and administred intratracheally at a dose of 1.5U/kg body weight. Control animals received saline only. 21 days post bleomycin treatment, mice were sacrificed and lung tissue were collected for RNA extraction and microRNA microarray.

Inhalation of Lung Spheroid Cell-Secreted Factors and Exosomes Promotes Therapeutic Lung Repair in Rodent Models of Pulmonary Fibrosis

Project description:Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal form of interstitial lung disease in which persistent injury results in scar tissue formation. As fibrosis thickens, the lung tissue becomes stiff and losses the ability to facilitate gas exchange and provide cells with needed oxygen. Currently, IPF has few treatment options and no effective therapies, aside from lung transplant. Here we present a series of studies utilizing lung spheroid cell-derived conditioned media (LSC-CM) and exosomes (LSC-EXO) to treat different rodent models of lung injury and fibrosis. Inhalation treatment was given for seven consecutive days via a nebulizer for clinical relevance. Results revealed that LSC-CM and LSC-EXO treatments could attenuate and resolve bleomycin- and silica-induced fibrosis by reestablishing normal alveolar structure, decreasing collagen accumulation, and myofibroblast proliferation. In addition, LSC-CM and LSC-EXOs exhibited superior therapeutic benefits than their counterparts derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. LSC-CM and LSC-EXOs provide promising therapeutic options for pulmonary fibrosis.

Transcriptome data of bone marrow regulatory T cells (Tregs) with premature aging

Project description:Bone marrow (BM) is normally maintained in an immune-privileged and anti-inflammatory state, kept in check principally by regulatory T cells (Tregs). Thus, it is reasonable to expect that Tregs will help shield hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from excessive inflammation and thereby counteract HSC aging. Understanding how BM Tregs are adapted to the aged BM and whether they are endowed with unique functions to modulate HSC aging will identify targets for prevention of HSC aging. To identify the phenotype switching and function variation in BM Tregs with physiological and premature aging, we performed RNA-seq of Tregs from the bone marrow of mice at three months post irradiation (IR) and their age-matched control mice (Ctrl).
