Proteomic Profiling of Neutrophils and Plasma in Community-Acquired Pneumonia Reveals Crucial Proteins in Diverse Biological Pathways Linked to Clinical Outcome

ABSTRACT: Neutrophils are crucial first responders in respiratory infections and play a dichotomous role in the host response during community-acquired pneumonia (CAP): providing protection and potentially causing damage. Existing research on neutrophil function in CAP relies on animal or ex-vivo studies, leaving a gap in human-centered investigations. Addressing this, we used mass spectrometry to characterize the neutrophil proteome of CAP patients at general ward admission and related the proteome to controls and clinical outcomes. We included 57 CAP patients and 26 controls and quantified 3482 proteins in neutrophil lysates and 386 proteins in concurrently collected plasma. We found that the extensively studied granule-related proteins in non-human models did not drive the neutrophil proteome changes associated with CAP. Proteome alterations were primarily due to an increased abundance of proteins related to (aerobic) metabolic activity and (m)RNA translation/processing, concurrent with a diminished presence of cytoskeletal organization-related proteins (all pathways p<0.001). Higher and lower abundances of specific proteins, primarily constituents of these pathways, were associated with prolonged time to clinical stability in CAP. Moreover, we identified a pronounced presence of platelet-related proteins in neutrophil lysates of particularly viral CAP patients, suggesting the existence of neutrophil-platelet complexes in non-critically ill CAP patients. Of the measured proteins in neutrophils, 4.3% were also detected in plasma. Our findings offer novel insights into the neutrophil proteome in human CAP and might serve as a proteomic resource for forthcoming investigations. Additionally, our study could pave the way for targeted strategies to fine-tune neutrophil responses, potentially improving CAP patient management.

Project description:Lipocalin 24p3 (24p3) is a neutrophil secondary granule protein. 24p3 is also a siderocalin, which binds several bacterial siderophores. It was therefore proposed that synthesis and secretion of 24p3 by stimulated macrophages or release of 24p3 upon neutrophil degranulation sequesters iron-laden siderophores to attenuate bacterial growth. Accordingly, 24p3-deficient mice are susceptible to bacterial pathogens whose siderophores would normally be chelated by 24p3. Specific granule deficiency (SGD) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by complete absence of proteins in secondary granules. Neutrophils from SGD patients, who are prone to bacterial infections, lack normal functions but the potential role of 24p3 in neutrophil dysfunction in SGD is not known. Here we show that neutrophils from 24p3-deficient mice are defective in many neutrophil functions. Specifically, neutrophils in 24p3-deficient mice do not extravasate to sites of infection and are defective for chemotaxis. A transcriptome analysis revealed that genes that control cytoskeletal reorganization are selectively suppressed in 24p3-deficient neutrophils. Additionally, small regulatory RNAs (miRNAs) that control upstream regulators of cytoskeletal proteins are also increased in 24p3-deficient neutrophils. Further, 24p3-deficient neutrophils failed to phagocytose bacteria, which may account for the enhanced sensitivity of 24p3-deficient mice to both intracellular (Listeria monocytogenes) and extracellular (Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus) pathogens. Interestingly, Listeria does not secrete siderophores and additionally, the siderophore secreted by Candida is not sequestered by 24p3. Therefore, the heightened sensitivity of 24p3-deficient mice to these pathogens is not due to sequestration of siderophores limiting iron availability, but is a consequence of impaired neutrophil function. Key words: Lipocalin, 24p3, neutrophils, cell motility, chemotaxis, MIRNA-362-3p To address the role of lipocalin 2 in regulating miRNA expression profiling in neutrophils derived from mouse bone marrow, we performed microarray analysis of miRNAs in wild type (N=2) and lcn2 knockout (N=2) neutrophils.

Upon stimulation, neutrophils were treated by fMLP at 10 micromolar for 20 minutes at 37 centigrade.
