Project description:Myeloid cells including brain-resident macrophages (microglia) and peripheral macrophages play a crucial role in various pathological conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). They adapt to extracellular stimuli by acquiring various transcriptional states. Understanding of how these states are regulated is limited due to a lack of tools that enable robust reprogramming toward disease-associated phenotypes. In this study, we investigated the effects of a cytokine mix, including interleukin-4 (IL-4), colony stimulating factor 1 (CSF1/M-CSF), interleukin 34 (IL-34) and transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ), on human THP-1 macrophages to elucidate their potential reprogramming towards disease-associated phenotypes and subsequential functional changes. Our results indicate that treatment with the cytokine mix led to significant transcriptomic changes, driving human THP-1 macrophages towards a transcriptional state reminiscent of disease-associated microglia (DAM) and lipid-associated macrophages (LAM) collectively referred to as DLAM. Transcriptome profiling revealed gene expression changes related to oxidative phosphorylation, lysosome function, and lipid metabolism. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed the activation of DLAM-like transcriptional responses across multiple cell clusters. Functional assays demonstrated alterations in macrophage motility, phagocytosis, lysosomal activity, and metabolic and energetic profiles. Our findings provide insights into the cytokine-mediated reprogramming of macrophages towards disease-relevant states, highlighting their role in neurodegenerative diseases and potential for therapeutic development.

Project description:Microglial activation is a pathological hallmark in many neurodegenerative diseases. During activation, microglia undergo complex morphological changes, including loss of their characteristic ramified cell morphology, which is routinely used to detect and quantify inflammation in the brain. However, the molecular mechanisms enabling this morphological change and the relation between microglial cell morphology and its pathophysiological function are not understood. Here, proteomic profiling of activated microglia identified microtubule remodeling pathways as an early factor that drives the morphological change and subsequently controls cytokine responses. We found that activated microglia increase their microtubule dynamics to form a stable and centrosomally anchored microtubule array to facilitate efficient cytokine trafficking and release. Moreover, we identified cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk-1) as a critical upstream regulator of microtubule remodeling and morphological change in vitro and in vivo. These results demonstrate a critical role for microtubule dynamics and reorganization in microglial activation and modulating cytokine-mediated inflammatory responses.

Project description:Microglia are the resident mononuclear phagocytes of the CNS parenchyma and represent an initial line of defense against invading microorganisms. Microglia utilize Toll-like receptors (TLRs) for pathogen recognition and TLR2 specifically senses conserved motifs of gram-positive bacteria including lipoproteins, lipoteichoic acids, and peptidoglycan (PGN) leading to cytokine/chemokine production. Interestingly, primary microglia derived from TLR2 knockout (KO) mice over-expressed numerous IL-12 family members, including IL-12p40, IL-12p70, and IL-27 in response to intact S. aureus, but not the less structurally complex TLR2 ligands Pam3CSK4 or PGN. The ability of intact bacteria to augment IL-12 family member expression was specific for gram-positive organisms, since numerous gram-negative strains were unable to elicit exaggerated responses in TLR2 KO microglia. Inhibition of SYK or IRAK4 signaling did not impact heightened IL-12 family member production in S. aureus-treated TLR2 KO microglia, whereas PI3K, MAPK, and JNK inhibitors were all capable of restoring exaggerated cytokine expression to wild type levels. Additionally, elevated IL-12 production in TLR2 KO microglia was ablated by a TLR9 antagonist, suggesting that TLR9 drives IL-12 family member production following exposure to intact bacteria that remains unchecked in the absence of TLR2 signaling. Collectively, these findings indicate crosstalk between TLR2 and TLR9 pathways to regulate IL-12 family member production by microglia. The summation of TLR signals must be tightly controlled to ensure the timely cessation and/or fine tuning of cytokine signaling to avoid nonspecific bystander damage due to sustained IL-12 release. TLR2 KO mice were backcrossed with C57BL/6 animals for a minimum of eight generations prior to use in these studies. Age- and sex-matched C57BL/6 mice were used as wild type (WT) controls. Primary mixed glial cultures were prepared from the cerebral corticies of neonatal mice (2-4 days of age) and microglia were harvested using a differential shaking technique with a purity of >98%. A USA300 community-acquired methicillin-resistant S. aureus (CA-MRSA) clinical isolate recovered from a patient with a fatal brain abscess was used to stimulate the microglia isolates. Bacterial strains were heat-inactivated and used to stimulate microglia at 107 colony forming units (cfu)/well for 6 and 12 hours time points. Three replicates of each mouse type (WT, TLR2 KO) at both time points 6 and 12 hours were used for the microarray experiments. Data was only usable for 2 replicates of the KO-12 hr group.

Project description:This experiment was designed to study the cytokine gene expression profile of macrophage under 50uM DU exposure. the experiment was repeated three time, with duplicate spots for each gene on the array. Conclusion: DU exposure induces the expressions of IL-10, NF-kBP65, and Midkine and other cytokine genes, indicating the immunomodulation abilities of DU.

Project description:Microglia provide a front-line defense against neuroinvasive viral infection, however, determination of their bona fide transcriptional profiles under conditions of health and disease is challenging. Here, we used a combination of experimental tools to delineate the overall transcriptional landscape of microglia during viral infection. By exploiting the ribosomal tagging approach, we developed the concept of enrichment of relevant marker genes by comparing immunoprecipitated RNA with total RNA. Enriched transcripts corresponding to genes expressed in target cells were instrumental in defining bona fide signatures of microglia. With this approach, we generated a comprehensive and accurate transcriptome of microglia at the in situ environment under conditions of health and virus infection. These unified microglial signatures may serve as a benchmark to retrospectively assess ex vivo artefacts from available atlases. Leveraging the microglial translatome, we found enrichment of genes implicated in T-cell activation and cytokine production during the course of VSV infection. These data linked microglia with T-cell re-stimulation and further underscored that microglia shape anti-viral T-cell responses in the brain. Collectively, this study faithfully defines the transcriptional landscape of microglia in steady state and during viral encephalitis and highlights cellular interactions between microglia and T cells that contribute to the control of virus dissemination.

Project description:Microglial reactivity is a pathological hallmark in many neurodegenerative diseases. During stimulation, microglia undergo complex morphological changes, including loss of their characteristic ramified morphology, which is routinely used to detect and quantify inflammation in the brain. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms and the relation between microglial morphology and their pathophysiological function are unknown. Here, proteomic profiling of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-reactive microglia identified microtubule remodeling pathways as an early factor that drives the morphological change and subsequently controls cytokine responses. We found that LPS-reactive microglia reorganize their microtubules to form a stable and centrosomally anchored array to facilitate efficient cytokine trafficking and release. We identified cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk-1) as a critical upstream regulator of microtubule remodeling and morphological change in-vitro and in-situ. Cdk-1 inhibition also rescued tau and amyloid fibril-induced microglia changes. These results demonstrate a critical role for microtubule dynamics and reorganization in microglial reactivity and modulating cytokine-mediated inflammatory responses.
