Chronic signaling via the metabolic checkpoint kinase mTORC1 induces macrophage granuloma formation and marks sarcoidosis progression

ABSTRACT: Gene expression analysis of primary CSF1-deprived bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) of Tsc2fl/fl LysM+/+ and TSC2fl/fl LysM+/cre mice Maintenance of tissue homeostasis requires a tight control of the in situ-proliferative capacity of tissue-resident macrophages. Here we show that specific deletion of Tsc2 in myeloid cells breaks quiescence and strongly induces macrophage proliferation and hypertrophy leading to granuloma formation in vivo in an mTORC1-dependent manner. Intriguingly, the growth factor CSF1 induces expression of cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) via TSC2-mTORC1 to stimulate cell proliferation, while simultaneously NF-κB signaling and apoptosis are inhibited. Tsc2-deficient macrophages show constitutive CDK4 expression and enhanced M2-like polarization that is supported by a metabolic reprogramming towards increased glycolysis and mitochondrial metabolism. Strikingly, mTORC1 activation and macrophage proliferation are identified as a hallmark of the human granulomatous disease sarcoidosis and correlate with a clinically progressive disease outcome. In conclusion, TSC2-mTORC1 integrates macrophage quiescence, polarization, and metabolism to prevent granulomatous disease. Fundamentally, we show that the macrophage cell cycle is controlled by a growth factor-induced expression of CDK4.

RNAseq of untreated and CSF1-treated, CSF1+QVD-treated monocytes

Project description:Caspases, which are key effectors of apoptosis, have demonstrated non-apoptotic functions. One of these functions is the differentiation into macrophages of peripheral blood monocytes exposed to Colony-Stimulating Factor-1 (CSF1). Macrophage polarization plays an important role in the pathogenesis of diverse human diseases as cancer, leading us to explore if caspase inhibition would affect macrophage polarization. To explore the role of caspases in CSF1 differentiation, we used human monocytes sorted from buffy coats treated by cytokines. We reported that caspase inhibition delays the ex vivo differentiation of peripheral blood monocytes exposed to CSF1 and modifies the phenotype of generated macrophages, e.g. cell shape, surface markers. Moreover, by RNAseq, we observed that the macrophages generated in presence of CSF1 and QVD are different from CSF1-treated monocytes. This study confirms the importance of caspase activation in CSF1 differentiation.

RNAseq of untreated, CSF1-treated, CSF1+QVD-treated, and GM-CSF-treated monocytes

Project description:Caspases, which are key effectors of apoptosis, have demonstrated non-apoptotic functions. One of these functions is the differentiation into macrophages of peripheral blood monocytes exposed to Colony-Stimulating Factor-1 (CSF1). Conversely, GM-CSF induces the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages in a caspase-independent manner. Macrophages generated by CSF1 and GM-CSF have distinct polarity. Macrophage polarization plays an important role in the pathogenesis of diverse human diseases as cancer, leading us to explore if caspase inhibition would affect macrophage polarization. To explore the role of caspases in CSF1 differentiation, we used human monocytes sorted from buffy coats treated by cytokines. We reported that caspase inhibition delays the ex vivo differentiation of peripheral blood monocytes exposed to CSF1 and modifies the phenotype of generated macrophages, e.g. cell shape, surface markers. Moreover, by RNAseq, we observed that the macrophages generated in presence of CSF1 and QVD are different from CSF1-treated monocytes and from GM-CSF-treated monocytes. Cell cycle and focal adhesion-related pathway genes were selectively down-regulated. This study confirms the importance of caspase activation in CSF1 differentiation.

Inverse data-driven modelling and multiomics analysis reveals PHGDH as a metabolic signature of M2 macrophages

Project description:Activation of immune cells is accompanied by a metabolic reconfiguration of their cellular energy metabolism including shifts in glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration that critically regulate functional effector responses. However, while current mass spectrometry strategies identify overall or flux-dependent metabolite profiles of cells or tissues, they fail to comprehensively identify the checkpoint nodes and enzymes that are responsible for different metabolic outputs. Here, we demonstrate that a data-driven inverse modelling approach from mass spectrometry metabolomics data can be used to identify a causal biochemical node that influence overall metabolic profiles and reactions. In our study we applied this strategy to TSC2/mTORC1-dependent macrophage polarization. Using multiomics metabolomics, proteomics and transcriptomics analysis as well as enzymatic activity measurements we demonstrate that TSC2, a negative regulator of mTORC1 signaling, critically influences the cellular metabolism of macrophages by regulating the enzyme phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), a rate-limiting enzyme that diverts carbon from glycolysis for de novo serine/glycine biosynthesis. This is the first evidence that the metabolic kinase mTORC1 positively regulates PHGDH activity in macrophages. Importantly, PHGDH itself is a central regulator of macrophage polarization. Anti-inflammatory (M2) macrophages have high PHGDH activity that is required for the expression of typical anti-inflammatory molecules. Inhibition of PHGDH activity suppressed marker genes in IL-4 stimulated M2 macrophages. This identifies PHGDH as a metabolic signature of M2 macrophages. The presented concept of data-driven inverse modelling and multiomics analysis allows for the systematic integration of genome-scale metabolic reconstruction, prediction and analysis of causal biochemical regulation.

Transcription profiling by array of mouse immortalized embryonic fibroblasts to identify genes regulated by mTORC1

Project description:Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) is a critical regulator of cell growth by integrating multiple signals (nutrients, growth factors, energy and stress) and is frequently deregulated in many types of cancer. We used a robust experimental paradigm involving the combination of two interventions, one genetic and one pharmacologic to identify genes regulated transcriptionally by mTORC1. In Tsc2+/+, but not Tsc2-/- immortalized mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs), serum deprivation downregulates mTORC1 activity. In Tsc2-/- cells, abnormal mTORC1 activity can be downregulated by treatment with rapamycin (sirolimus). By contrast, rapamycin has little effect on mTORC1 in Tsc2+/+ cells in which mTORC1 is already inhibited by low serum. Thus, under serum deprived conditions, mTORC1 activity is low in Tsc2+/+ cells (untreated or rapamycin treated), high in Tsc2-/- cells, but lowered by rapamycin; a pattern referred to as a M-^Slow/low/high/lowM-^T or M-^SLLHLM-^T, which allowed the identification of genes regulated by mTORC1 by performing the appropriate comparisons

Identification of Tfeb-dependent genes downstream of mTORC1 in MEFs

We found that mTORC1 regulated the expression of, among other lysosomal genes, V-ATPases through the transcription factor EB (TFEB, Tcfeb in the mouse). The knockdown of Tfeb resulted in the 'flattening' of the LLHL pattern and allowed the identification of genes regulated by mTORC1 through Tfeb Mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) wild type or deficient in Tsc2 expressing a Tfeb shRNA or scrambled shRNA vector were treated with 25 nM rapamycin or vehicle (methanol) for 24 h under low serum conditions (0.1% FBS)

Granuloma annulare exhibits mixed immune and macrophage polarization profiles with spatial transcriptomics

Project description:Granuloma annulare (GA) is an idiopathic condition characterized by granulomatous inflammation in the skin. Prior studies have suggested that GA develops from various triggers, leading to a complex interplay involving innate and adaptive immunity, tissue remodeling, and fibrosis. Macrophages are the major immune cells comprising GA granulomas, however, the molecular drivers and inflammatory signaling cascade behind macrophage activation is poorly understood. Histologically, GA exhibits both palisaded and interstitial patterns on histology, however the molecular composition of GA at the spatial level remains unexplored. GA is a condition without FDA-approved therapies despite the significant impact of GA on quality of life. Spatial transcriptomics is a valuable tool for profiling localized, genome-wide gene expression changes across tissue with emerging applications in clinical medicine. To improve our understanding of the spatially localized gene expression patterns underlying GA, we profiled the spatial gene expression landscape from six patients with GA. Our findings revealed mixed Th1 and Th2 signals comprising the GA microenvironment and spatially distinct M1 and M2 macrophage polarization characteristics. IFN- and TNF signals emerged as important regulators of GA granulomatous inflammation and interleukin-32 emerged as a key driver of granulomatous inflammation. Overall, our spatial transcriptomics data indicate that GA exhibits mixed immune and macrophage polarization.

Rapamycin effect on Wild Type and TSC deficient Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts : Time Course

Project description:Aberrant activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) is a common molecular event in a large variety of pathological settings, including genetic tumor syndromes, cancer, and obesity. However, the cell intrinsic consequences of mTORC1 activation remain poorly defined. Here, we identify global trancriptional changes in TSC1 and TSC2 null MEFs, which exhibit constitutive activation of mTORC1, compared to wild-type littermate control lines. A rapamycin time course is included to determine those changes that are dependent on mTORC1 signaling, revealing mTORC1 induced and repressed transcripts. In order to identify mTORC1-dependent transcriptional changes, we compared wild-type MEFs to both Tsc1-/- and Tsc2-/- MEFs following serum starvation, where mTORC1 signaling is off in wild-type cells and fully active in TSC-deficient cells. All cell lines were serum-starved for 24 h, and the Tsc1-/- and Tsc2-/- cells were treated with a time course of rapamycin prior to the isolation of mRNA for microarray analysis. Immortalized wild-type (Tsc2+/+ p53-/-), Tsc1-/- (p53+/+, 3T3-immortalized), and Tsc2-/- (p53-/-, derived from a littermate of the wild-type cell line) MEFs are the three cell lines used in this study and were derived in the laboratory of David J. Kwiatkowski (Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA). Wild-type and null MEFs were grown to 70% confluence in 10 cm plates and were serum starved for 24 h in the presence of vehicle (DMSO) for 24 h or rapamycin (20 nM) for 2, 6, 12, or 24 h. All vehicle-treated samples (0 h time points) were plated in triplicate and all rapamycin time course samples were plated in duplicate. For each replicate, expression analysis was performed by hybridization to an Affymetrix Mouse 430_2 oligonucleotide microarray chip.

IL-4 stimulation of Dicer deficient bone-marrow derived macrophages in vitro

Project description:Macrophages were derived from the bone-marrow of 3 x fl/+ Dicer LysCre +/- (wild-type) and 3 x fl/fl Dicer LysCre +/- mice and stimulated with IL-4 (50ng/mL) for 72h. Total RNA was isolated and analyzed by gene array. In this experiment, we derived Dicer deficient bone-marrow macrophages using Dicer fl/+ LysM-Cre by Dicer fl/+ crossed mice to obtain Dicer fl/fl LysM-cre progeny (and Dicer deficient macrophages). Next, we studied the effects of IL-4 stimulation in macrophage with a deficiency in Dicer/microRNAs.
