Polyamine import and accumulation causes immunomodulation in macrophages engulfing apoptotic cells (Part 4)

ABSTRACT: Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, termed efferocytosis, is critical for tissue homeostasis and drives anti-inflammatory programming in engulfing macrophages. Here, we assess metabolites in naïve and inflammatory macrophages following engulfment of multiple cellular and non-cellular targets. Efferocytosis leads to unique increases in the arginine-derived polyamines, spermidine and spermine, in vitro and in vivo. Surprisingly, polyamine accumulation after efferocytosis does not arise from retention of apoptotic cell metabolites or de novo synthesis, but from enhanced polyamine import that is dependent on Rac1, actin, and PI3 kinase. Blocking polyamine import prevents efferocytosis from suppressing macrophage IL-1beta or IL-6. This identifies efferocytosis as a trigger for polyamine import and accumulation, and imported polyamines as mediators of efferocytosis-induced immune reprogramming.

Transcriptional analysis of efferocytosis in mouse skin wounds

Project description:Defects in apoptotic cell clearance, or efferocytosis, can cause inflammatory diseases and prevent tissue repair due in part, to a key role of efferocytosis in inducing a pro-repair transcriptional program in phagocytic cells like macrophages. While the cellular machinery and metabolic pathways involved in efferocytosis have been characterized, the precise efferocytic response of macrophages is dependent on the identity and macromolecular cues of apoptotic cells, and the complex tissue microenvironment in which efferocytosis occurs. Here, we find that macrophages undergoing active efferocytosis in mid-stage mouse skin wounds in vivo display a pro-repair gene program, while efferocytosis of apoptotic skin fibroblasts in vitro induces an immature/inflammatory transcription response. These data provide a resource for understanding how the skin wound niche influences macrophage efferocytosis and will be useful for future investigations that define the role of efferocytosis during tissue repair

Study of human macrophage reprogramming toward a pro-resolving profile by efferocytosis

Project description:Inﬂammation is a physiopathological process triggered by infection or tissue damage. Immune system initiates coordinated sequential steps in response to these danger signals. Once the threat has been contained inflammation has to be subsequently shut down. Inflammation resolution is initiated by the reprogramming of pro-inflammatory macrophages toward a pro-resolving profile. This reprogramming is induced in particular by the non-phlogistic engulfment of apoptotic cells, mostly apoptotic neutrophils, a process called efferocytosis. As a matter of fact, macrophages are an essential linchpin regulating both inflammation triggering and sustaining and inflammation resolution. This duality can be achieved through the tremendous plasticity of these innate immune cells. Indeed, depending on microenvironmental signals (cytokines, efferocytosis, growth factors…) macrophages can adopt numerous diverse and sometimes antagonistic phenotypes. The mechanisms governing these transitions remain relatively scattered especially in human. With this project we propose to explore the mechanisms involved in human macrophage reprogramming toward a pro-resolving profile after efferocytosis. The stakes are high due to the estimated prevalence of chronic inflammatory diseases in Western society is 5 to 7%. Chronic inflammation is a burden to patient due to life-long debilitating illness and increased mortality and is also a burden to society due to high costs for therapy and care. Finding new therapies to limit chronic inflammation establishment and persistence is thus a highly valuable goal.

ALOX12-expressing macrophages produce MCTRs to promote local efferocytosis and tissue repair

Project description:Poor wound healing due to dysregulated tissue repair responses can exacerbate and prolong disease. Successful tissue repair is critically dependent on the timely clearance of apoptotic cells by macrophages in a process termed efferocytosis. Mechanisms and factors that link these two fundamental processes are therefore of great interest. Herein, we observed that a subset of 12-lipoxygenase (ALOX12)-expressing macrophages upregulate the production of host protective autacoids termed maresin conjugates in tissue regeneration (MCTR) during efferocytosis. MCTRs in turn play autocrine and paracrine functions in enhancing the ability of both ALOX12-positive and surrounding ALOX12-negative macrophages to uptake apoptotic cells. These effects of ALOX12-positive macrophages and MCTRs in regulating apoptotic cells clearance was also observed at sites of high apoptotic cell burden in mouse and flatworm models, as the formation of these mediators was upregulated and abrogation of related ALOX activity in mice reduced the ability of macrophages to clear apoptotic cells. Furthermore, add-back of MCTRs rapidly enhanced the efferocytosis capability of macrophages in mice and planarian flatworms. Mechanistic studies in macrophages revealed that MCTRs modulated Rac1 signalling and glycolytic metabolism, two pathways crucial for effective efferocytosis, and enhanced efferocytosis-induced WNT ligand production. Inhibition of Rac1 abrogated the ability of MCTRs to enhance glucose uptake and efferocytosis in vitro, while inhibiting either Rac1, glycolysis, or WNT ligand production prevented MCTR-mediated enhancement of apoptotic cell clearance and tissue regeneration. Taken together, our findings identify a central role for ALOX12-expressing macrophages in the regulation of efferocytosis and tissue repair via the local formation of MCTRs.

Macrophages induce inflammation by efferocytosis of apoptotic prostate cancer cells via HIF-1α stabilization

Project description:Clearance of apoptotic cancer cells by macrophages, known as efferocytosis, fuels the bone-metastatic growth of prostate cancer cells via pro-inflammatory and immunosuppressive mechanisms that are still unclear. In this study, single-cell transcriptomics of bone marrow macrophages undergoing efferocytosis of apoptotic prostate cancer cells revealed a significant enrichment of a cellular response to hypoxia. Here we show that efferocytic macrophages promote HIF-1α stabilization under normoxic conditions through interaction with phosphorylated STAT3. Inflammatory cytokine gene expression analysis of efferocytic HIF-1α-mutant macrophages revealed a reduced expression of the pro-tumorigenic Mif. Furthermore, stabilization of HIF-1α using the HIF-prolyl-hydroxylase inhibitor, Roxadustat, enhanced MIF expression in macrophages. Finally, macrophages treated with recombinant MIF protein activated NF-κB (p65) signaling increased the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Altogether, these findings suggest that the clearance of apoptotic cancer cell by tumor-associated macrophages triggers p-STAT3/HIF-1α/MIF signaling to enhance tumor-promoting inflammation in bone, suggesting this axis as a target for metastatic prostate cancer.

Temporal transcriptional profiling of growth resumption following polyamine-depletion

Project description:Polyamines are absolutely required for cell growth and proliferation. While polyamine depletion results in reversible cell cycle arrest, the actual mechanism of growth inhibition is still obscure. This experiment aimed at determining the cellular processes elicited by re-addition of polyamines to polyamine-depleted (growth arrested) cells.

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Uncovers Heterogenous Transcriptional Signatures in Macrophages during Efferocytosis

Project description:Efferocytosis triggers cellular reprogramming, including the induction of mRNA transcripts which encode anti-inflammatory cytokines that promote inflammation resolution. Our current understanding of this transcriptional response is largely informed from analysis of bulk phagocyte populations; however, this precludes the resolution of heterogeneity between individual macrophages and macrophage subsets. Moreover, phagocytes may contain so called “passenger” transcripts that originate from engulfed apoptotic bodies, thus obscuring the true transcriptional reprogramming of the phagocyte. To define the transcriptional diversity during efferocytosis, we utilized single-cell mRNA sequencing after co-cultivating macrophages with apoptotic cells. Importantly, transcriptomic analyses were performed after validating the disappearance of apoptotic cell-derived RNA sequences. Our findings reveal new heterogeneity of the efferocytic response at a single-cell resolution, particularly evident between F4/80+ MHCIILO and F4/80- MHCIIHI macrophage sub-populations. After exposure to apoptotic cells, the F4/80+ MHCIILO subset significantly induced pathways associated with tissue and cellular homeostasis, while the F4/80- MHCIIHI subset downregulated these putative signaling axes. Ablation of a canonical efferocytosis receptor, MerTK, blunted efferocytic signatures and led to the escalation of cell death-associated transcriptional signatures in F4/80+ MHCIILO macrophages. Taken together, our results newly elucidate the heterogenous transcriptional response of single-cell peritoneal macrophages after exposure to apoptotic cells.

RNA-seq analysis of sorted colon epithelial cells and colon lamia propria macrophages from mice where Tsc2 is deleted in Lyz2-expressing cells

Project description:The intestinal epithelium has a high turnover and constantly renews itself through proliferation of intestinal crypt cells, which depends on insufficiently characterized signals from the microenvironment. Here we show that colonic macrophages were located directly adjacent to epithelial crypt cells in mice, where they metabolically supported epithelial cell proliferation in an mTORC1-dependent manner. Specifically, mTORC1 activation in macrophages protected against colitis-induced intestinal damage and induced the synthesis of the polyamines spermidine and spermine. Epithelial cells ingested these polyamines and rewired their cellular metabolism for optimizing proliferation and defense. Notably, spermine directly stimulated proliferation of colon epithelial cells and colon organoids. Genetic interference with polyamine production in macrophages altered global polyamine levels in the colon and modified epithelial cell proliferation. Our results suggest that macrophages act as “commensals” that provide metabolic support to promote efficient self-renewal of the colon epithelium.
