Project description:Gas exchange in the mammalian lung occurs in the alveolar sacs lined by epithelial cells that form a barrier allowing effective oxygen diffusion. Telomere syndromes have their most common manifestation in degenerative disease of the alveoli, both pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema. We tested the role of telomere dysfunction by inducing deletion of the telomere binding protein Trf2 in type 2 alveolar epithelial cells (AEC2s) that both express the gene encoding surfactant protein C and constitute the regenerative compartment of the alveolar epithelium. Acquired telomere dysfunction in these cells preferentially induced cellular senescence, and mouse lungs were marked by an inflammatory response even though the telomere dysfunction was restricted to the epithelium. Senescent AECs had altered gene expression that differentially fell in inflammatory cell signaling pathways. Bleomycin challenge was uniformly fatal, and Trf2-depleted cells failed to generate clonal alveolar colonies in vitro. The telomere dysfunction response in AEC2s was in part p53-dependent, and we found evidence of a p53-mediated paracrine survival signal to the mesenchyme. These data indicate that telomere dysfunction in the alveolar epithelium limits its regenerative capacity and is sufficient to induce inflammation. It may thus be a primary driving event in telomere-mediated lung disease. Efforts to restore epithelial regenerative capacity may be an effective approach in a subset of fibrosis and emphysema patients. We studied the gene expression changes in adult type II pneumocytes 7 days after deleting Trf2. Mice carried floxed allele of Trf2 and mTmG reporter allele. Type II pneumocytes were collected by FACs sorting GFP+ cells from lungs 7 days after administering tamoxifen. 6 total samples were analysed. Three were from control samples that were heterozygous for Trf2 and three samples had Trf2 deleted.

Project description:Alveolar macrophages maintain lung homeostasis and are critical for host defense to respiratory pathogens, including influenza virus. Yet how aging impacts alveolar macrophages remains unclear. Here, we found that aging reduces the proliferation and concentration of alveolar macrophages under basal conditions in mice. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that aging induces a down regulation in cell cycling pathways in alveolar macrophages. Functionally, aging impaired the capacity of alveolar macrophages to phagocytose in vivo, and also increased influenza virus-induced lung damage, morbidity and mortality. Depleting alveolar macrophages indicated that these cells were critical for accelerated mortality during influenza viral lung infection with aging. Adoptive transfer experiments demonstrated that aging impaired the ability of alveolar macrophages to reduce lung damage after influenza viral infection. Thus, our study has revealed that aging impairs alveolar macrophages to resolve damageand increases mortality after influenza viral infection.

Project description:Regenerating new alveolar epithelium is essential for recovery from many lung diseases. This multi-cellular regenerative process occurs when type II alveolar pneumocytes (AT2), with support from mesenchymal niche cells, proliferate to generate more AT2 cells and transdifferentiate in type I pneumocytes. To elucidate how coordinated events between AT2 cells and mesenchyme restore alveolar epithelium we used unbiased genome-wide analysis of chromatin accessibility and gene expression in both cell types following acute lung injury. We observed that chromatin acessability in AT2 cells changes signficantly following acute lung injury. Newly accessible chromatin reveals new STAT3 binding motifs adjacent to genes that regulate essential regenerative pathways in AT2 cells. Restoration of alveolar structures following both sterile and infectious lung injuries was inhibited when STAT3 signaling was lost in AT2 cells. Single-cell transcriptome analysis of regenerating AT2 cells identified brain neurotrophic factor (Bdnf) as the sole STAT3 target gene whose chromatin becomes newly accessible in a regenerating population of AT2 cells. BDNF increased alveolar organoid size and forming efficiency in murine and human models. The receptor for BDNF, TrkB, is uniquely? expressed on mesenchymal alveolar niche cells (MANC). Exposure of BDNF to TrkB increases expression of fibroblast growth factor 7 (Fgf7), an essential regenerative cytokine, in MANCs. Blocking Bdnf signaling with a TrkB receptor antagonist abrogated murine and human alveolar organoid formation. Finally, a small molecule TrkB agonist improved functional and histological outcomes in vivo following sterile and infectious lung injuries. Collectively, these data highlight the biological and therapeutic importance of the Stat3-Bdnf-TrkB axis in orchestrating alveolar epithelial regeneration
