Project description:Bacterial lung infections are associated with strong infiltration of CD11b+ myeloid cells, which limit life-threatening disease, but also severely damage lung tissue. In a murine lung infection model with Streptococcus pneumoniae, we found intrinsic upregulation of CD11b on resident alveolar macrophages. Such CD11b expression was associated with transcriptomic and proteomic adaptations by alveolar macrophages, leading to the identification of specific molecules and pathways that depended on CD11b. In the absence of CD11b, the antimicrobial defense of alveolar macrophages was strongly reduced, and the production of neutrophil-recruiting chemokines was more pronounced. Moreover, CD11b expression limited the infection and prevented excessive alveolar damage. In conclusion, our study provides detailed molecular insights into the alveolar macrophage-specific immune response to Streptococcus pneumoniae lung infection and reveals profound CD11b-dependent alterations that are critical for effective antimicrobial immunity, neutrophil recruitment, and prevention of alveolar damage.

Project description:Community-acquired pneumonia is a widespread disease with significant morbidity and mortality. Alveolar macrophages are tissue-resident lung cells that play a crucial role in innate immunity against bacteria causing pneumonia. We hypothesized that alveolar macrophages display adaptive characteristics after resolution of bacterial pneumonia. We studied mice one to six months after self-limiting lung infection due to Streptococcus pneumoniae, the most common cause of bacterial pneumonia. Among the myeloid cells recovered from the lung, only alveolar macrophages showed long-term modifications of their surface marker phenotype. The remodeling of alveolar macrophages was: (i) long-lasting (still observed 6 months post infection), (ii) regionally localized (only observed in the affected lobe after lobar pneumonia), and (iii) associated with a macrophage-dependent enhanced lung protection to another pneumococcal serotype. Metabolomic and transcriptomic profiling revealed that alveolar macrophages of mice which recovered from pneumonia had new baseline activities and altered responses to infection. Thus, the enhanced lung protection after mild and self-limiting respiratory infection includes a profound remodeling of alveolar macrophages that is long-lasting, compartmentalized, and manifest across surface receptors, metabolites, and both resting and stimulated transcriptomes. We used microarrays to detail the global program of gene expression for mouse alveolar macrophages sorted from lungs that were naïve or infected more than a month previously, at rest and during an acute (4-hour) infection.

Project description:Multiscale mathematical model of pneumococcal alveolar infection. This model analyses the role of cellular and molecular interactions during the first 10 h after alveolar invasion of Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. By “multi-level” we mean that we simulated the interplay between different temporal and spatial scales in a single computational model. In this instance, we included the intracellular scale of processes driving lung epithelial cell activation together with the scale of cell-to-cell interactions between bacteria and alveolar macrophages at the alveolar tissue. The model combines agent-based modelling and ODE modelling strategies. The original article of the article can be found in https://doi.org/10.3389/fcimb.2018.00159.

Project description:Pneumococcal pneumonia is a leading cause of death and a major source of human morbidity. The initial immune response plays a central role in determining the course and outcome of pneumococcal disease. We combine bacterial titer measurements from mice infected with Streptococcus pneumoniae with mathematical modeling to investigate the coordination of immune responses and the effects of initial inoculum on outcome. To evaluate the contributions of individual components, we systematically build a mathematical model from three subsystems that describe the succession of defensive cells in the lung: resident alveolar macrophages, neutrophils and monocyte-derived macrophages. The alveolar macrophage response, which can be modeled by a single differential equation, can by itself rapidly clear small initial numbers of pneumococci. Extending the model to include the neutrophil response required additional equations for recruitment cytokines and host cell status and damage. With these dynamics, two outcomes can be predicted: bacterial clearance or sustained bacterial growth. Finally, a model including monocyte-derived macrophage recruitment by neutrophils suggests that sustained bacterial growth is possible even in their presence. Our model quantifies the contributions of cytotoxicity and immune-mediated damage in pneumococcal pathogenesis.

Project description:Through our studies using a murine model of acute pneumonia with A. baumannii, we observed that female mice were more susceptible to infection. Likewise, treatment of male mice with estradiol increased their susceptibility to infection. Analysis of the airway compartment revealed enhanced inflammation and reduced neutrophil and alveolar macrophage numbers compared to male mice. Depletion of either neutrophils or alveolar macrophages was important for bacterial clearance however, depletion of alveolar macrophages further exacerbated female susceptibility due to severe alterations in metabolic homoeostasis.

Project description:IL-15 has critical impact on the homeostasis and activation of NK, NKT, gdT and CD8+T cells, and contributes to antimicrobial defenses particularly at mucosal sites. The respiratory tract also comprises a large mucosal surface and harbors significant amounts of lymphocytes, but the expression pattern of IL-15 in the lung and its role in local immune responses are largely unknown. We therefore analyzed the differential expression of IL-15 and the IL-15 receptor (IL-15R) complex in the lungs of mice, and demonstrated substantial constitutive expression in bronchial and alveolar epithelial cells, alveolar macrophages, and vascular smooth muscle cells, implicating contribution to pulmonary immune cell homeostasis already under normal conditions. The induction of pneumococcal pneumonia but not the infection with Chlamydophila pneumoniae evoked a significant up-regulation of IL-15 on alveolar macrophages and bronchial epithelial cells, with the latter presenting de-novo expression of IL-15 on their basolateral surface and additional up-regulation of IL-15Ra . Transcriptome analysis and semiquantitative PCR indicated at least partial transcriptional regulation. Finally, the increase of IL-15 was accompanied by enhanced expression of CD69, TNFa, IFNg and Bcl-2 by IL-15-dependent lymphocyte populations suggesting functional impact of IL-15 on the pulmonary immune response in pneumococcal pneumonia.

Microarray experiments were done as two-color hybridizations. RNA labeling was performed with a Fluorescent Linear Amplification Kit (Agilent Technologies). In order to compensate dye specific effects, and to ensure statistically relevant data, a color swap was performed.

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is an adhesion molecule that is highly expressed on the pulmonary capillary endothelium, alveolar epithelium and other cell types within the lung. ICAM-1 is known to play important roles in leukocyte adhesion, migration, and motility. To determine the contributions of ICAM-1 to bacterial clearance and leukocyte kinetics during pneumonia, mice were inoculated with S. pneumoniae and evaluated 1, 4 and 7 days later. Our results show that Icam1-/- mice have a greater number of viable bacteria within the lung at each time point. The impaired clearance observed in Icam1-/- mice was not due to an impediment in leukocyte recruitment. In fact, Icam1-/- mice had a greater number of neutrophils and recruited inflammatory macrophages in the lung tissue and the alveoli/airways on day 7. In contrast, fewer alveolar macrophages were present in the BAL of Icam1-/- mice. The loss of body weight and the concentrations of inflammatory mediators in the BAL were also significantly greater in Icam1-/- mice. Mechanistic studies to understand the defect in clearance show that neutrophils and macrophage subpopulations had no defect in phagocytosis or acidification of phagosomes. RNA sequencing reveals many differences in gene expression, but does not suggest° a defect in phagocytosis. Thus, ICAM-1 is necessary for the clearance of S. pneumoniae and for the resolution of pneumonia, but is not required for the recruitment of neutrophils or inflammatory macrophages into the pneumonic lung parenchyma or the alveoli/airways during S. pneumoniae-induced pneumonia.
