Genoma-wide analysis of pro- and anti-inflammatory activation states in primary microglia.

ABSTRACT: Murine primary microglia were treated with different inflammatory stimulants to induce different activation states and analyze the associated transcriptional changes. Abstract: Microglia, the immune cells of the CNS, are highly adaptive cells that can acquire different pro- and anti-inflammatory activation states with distinct functions in CNS homeostasis and pathologies. To study microglial function in vitro, primary microglia or immortalized cell lines are commonly used. An alternative to these cells are embryonic stem cell-derived microglia (ESdM). ESdM have previously been shown to be very similar to primary microglia in terms of expression profiles and surface molecules. In this study, ESdM and primary microglia were treated with different inflammatory stimulants to analyze their ability to adopt different activation states. Using quantitative real time PCR, comparative transcriptomics, ELISA, and flow cytometry, we found that different activation states can be induced in ESdM, which are similar to those found in primary microglia. These states are characterized by specific sets of inflammatory marker molecules and differential transcriptome signatures. Our results show that ESdM are a valuable alternative cell model to study microglial functions and neuroinflammatory mechanisms.

Microarray analysis to evaluate the role of USP18 in primary microglia and the microglia cell line BV-2

Project description:Microglia are tissue macrophages of the central nervous system (CNS) that control tissue homeostasis, and as such they are crucially important for organ integrity. Microglia dysregulation is thought to be causal for a group of neuropsychiatric, neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases, called ‘microgliopathies’. However, how the intracellular stimulation machinery in microglia is controlled is poorly understood. By using expression studies, we identified the ubiquitin-specific protease (Usp) 18 in white matter microglia that essentially contributes to microglial quiescence under homeostatic conditions. We further found that microglial Usp18 negatively regulated the activation of STAT1 and concomitant induction of interferon-induced genes thereby disabling the termination of IFN signalling. Unexpectedly, the Usp18-mediated feedback loop was independent from the catalytic domain of the protease but instead required the interacting region of Ifnar2. Additionally, the absence of Ifnar1 completely rescued microglial activation indicating a tonic IFN signal mediated by receptor interactions under non-diseased conditions. Finally, conditional depletion of Usp18 only in myeloid cells significantly enhanced the disease burden in a mouse model of CNS autoimmunity, increased axonal and myelin damage and determined the spatial distributions of CNS lesions that shared the same STAT1 signature as myeloid cells found in active multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. These results identify Usp18 as novel negative regulator of microglia activation, demonstrate a protective role of the IFNAR pathway for microglia and establish Usp18 as potential therapeutic target for the treatment of MS. Primary microglia (WT, USP18ko and USP18_C61A mice) and BV-2 cells (treated with control siRNA or siRNA against USP18) were incubated with 500 U/ml IFN-b. At different timepoints (0h, 6h, and 24h) RNA samples were taken and analyzed via Microarray

Transcriptome signature of mouse embryonic stem cell-derived microglia is closely related to primary cultured microglia

Project description:Preparation of primary microglial cultures from postnatal mice is tedious with a low yield, high variability and risk of astrocytic contamination. Microglia derived from embryonic stem cells (ESdM) have been suggested as alternative source, but it is unclear how closely ESdM resemble the molecular phenotype of primary microglia. Here, we performed a whole transcriptome analysis of ESdM in comparison to primary cultured and flow cytometry-sorted microglia and compared the microglial transcriptome to other cell types. Cultured microglia and ESdM were related to sorted microglia, but clearly distinct from other myeloid cell types, T cells, astrocytes and neurons. ESdM and primary cultured microglia showed strong overlap in their transcriptome. Only 144 gene transcripts were differentially expressed between both cell types, mainly derived from immune-related genes with a higher activation status of pro-inflammatory and immune defense genes in primary microglia compared to ESdM. Flow cytometry analysis of cell surface markers CD54, CD74 and CD274 selected from the microarray confirmed the close phenotypic relation between ESdM and primary cultured microglia. Thus, assessment of genome-wide transcriptional regulation demonstrates that microglia are distinct from other macrophage cell types and that mouse pluripotent stem cell-derived microglia are closely related to cultured postnatal microglia.

SHIP1 modulation and proteome characterization of microglia

Project description:Understanding microglial states in the aging brain has become crucial, especially with the discovery of numerous Alzheimer’s disease (AD) risk and protective variants in genes such as INPP5D and TREM2, which are essential to microglia function in AD. Here we present a thorough examination of microglia-like cells and primary mouse microglia at the proteome and transcriptome levels to illuminate the roles these genes and the proteins they encode play in various cell states. First, we compared the proteome profiles of wildtype and INPP5D (SHIP1) knockout primary microglia. Our findings revealed significant proteome alterations only in the homozygous SHIP1 knockout, revealing its impact on the microglial proteome. Additionally, we compared the proteome and transcriptome profiles of commonly used in vitro microglia BV2 and HMC3 cells with primary mouse microglia. Our results demonstrated a substantial similarity between the proteome of BV2 and mouse primary cells, while notable differences were observed between BV2 and human HMC3. Lastly, we conducted targeted lipidomic analysis to quantify different phosphatidylinositols (PIs) species, which are direct SHIP1 targets, in the HMC3 and BV2 cells. This in-depth omics analysis of both mouse and human microglia enhances our systematic understanding of these microglia models.

Microglia aging progresses through functional intermediate steps

Project description:Aged microglia contribute to maladaptive inflammation, but little is known about their progression from homeostasis to dysfunction during aging. Here, we analyze the spatiotemporal kinetics of microglial aging in the hippocampus. Spatially, the dynamics of age-related inflammatory changes in microglia vastly differ across adjoining regions. Using single cell RNA-Sequencing and in vitro approaches, we find that microglia aging proceeds progressively through functional intermediate states that are necessary for inflammatory activation.
