Project description:We hypothesize that under homeostatic as well as inflammatory conditions circulating monocytes and/or their bone marrow-derived progenitors might contribute to the replenishment of CD103+ and CD103- DC in lymphoid and non-lymphoid compartments. To that end, bone marrow cells from CX3CR1+/gfp C57BL/6 mice were sorted as follows: lineage negative (CD3, CD19, NK1.1, Ter119, Ly6G and CD11c) CX3CR1+c-kit+. Sorted cells were further cultured in vitro under the continuous presence of GM-CSF. lin-CX3CR1+c-kit+ bone marrow cells gave rise to CD103+ and CD103- DC in vitro. To test whether CD103 might be a suitable marker that allows the differentiation of functionally distinct DC subsets generated in vitro, CD11c+CD103+ and CD11c+CD103- DC were sorted from day 5 cultures of lin-CX3CR1+c-kit+ cells and analyzed by whole mouse genome microarrays from Agilent technologies. Compared to CD103+ DC, CD103- DC displayed a strong up-regulation of transcripts for genes involved in innate immunity, whereas those involved in costimulation were down-modulated. Our data suggest distinct functional activity of these two DC subsets. Keywords: Transcriptional profiling-Cell type comparison We compared the transcriptional profile of CD11c+CD103+ and CD11c+CD103- dendritic cells by use of Agilent Whole Mouse Genome Microarrays. Two sets of samples were generated independently as real biological replicates. The microarray analysis was performed as a dual-color experiment, including a dye-swap.

Project description:Memory T cells are important for protective immunity against infectious microorganisms. Such protection is achieved by cooperative action of memory T cell populations that differ in their tissue localization and functionality. We report on the identification of the fractalkine receptor CX3CR1 as marker for stratification of memory T cells with cytotoxic effector function from those with proliferative function in both, mice and man. Based on CX3CR1 and CD62L expression levels four distinct memory T cell populations can be distinguished based on their functional properties. Transcriptome and proteome profiling revealed that CX3CR1 expression was superior to CD62L to resolve memory T cell functionality and allowed determination of a core signature of memory T cells with cytotoxic effector function. This identifies a CD62Lhi CX3CR1+ memory T cell population with an identical gene signature to CD62LlowCX3CR1+ effector memory T cells. In lymph nodes, this so far unrecognized CD62LhiCX3CR1+ T cell population shows a distinct migration pattern and anatomic positioning compared to CD62LhiCX3CR1neg TCM. Furthermore, CX3CR1+ memory T cells were scarce or absent during chronic HBV, HCV and HIV infection in man and chronic LCMV infection in mice confirming the value of CX3CR1+ in understanding principles of protective immune memory. CD8+ T cells were isolated and directly assessed or incubated with DC or LSEC. After harvesting, cells were immediately lysed in Trizol (Invitrogen) before storage at -80°C for RNA isolation.

Project description:CX3CR1, one of the highest expressed genes in microglia in mice and humans, is implicated in numerous microglial functions. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying Cx3cr1 signaling are not well understood. Here, we analyzed transcriptomes of Cx3cr1-deficient microglia under varying conditions by RNA-Seq. In 2 mos mice, Cx3cr1 deletion resulted in the downregulation of a subset of immune-related genes, without substantial epigenetic changes in markers of active chromatin. Surprisingly, Cx3cr1-deficient microglia from young mice exhibited a transcriptome consistent with that of aged Cx3cr1-sufficient animals, suggesting a premature aging transcriptomic signature. Immunohistochemical analysis of microglia in young and aged mice revealed that loss of Cx3cr1 modulates microglial morphology in a compatible fashion. Our results suggest that CX3CR1 may regulate microglial function in part by modulating the expression levels of a subset of inflammatory genes during chronological aging, making Cx3cr1-deficient mice useful for studying aged microglia.

Project description:Muscle injury triggers inflammation in which infiltrating mononuclear phagocytes are crucial for tissue regeneration. The interaction of the CCL2/CCR2 and CX3CL1/CX3CR1 chemokine axis that guides phagocyte infiltration is incompletely understood. Here, we show that CX3CR1 deficiency promotes muscle repair and rescues Ccl2-/- mice from impaired muscle regeneration as a result of altered macrophage function, not infiltration. Transcriptomic analysis of muscle mononuclear phagocytes reveals that Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is up-regulated in mice with efficient regeneration. ApoE treatment enhances phagocytosis by mononuclear phagocytes in vitro, and restores phagocytic activity and muscle regeneration in Ccl2-/- mice. Because CX3CR1 deficiency may compensate for defective CCL2-dependant monocyte recruitment by modulating ApoE-dependent macrophage phagocytic activity, targeting CX3CR1 expressed by macrophages might be a powerful therapeutic approach to improve muscle regeneration.
