Project description:Introduction: Increasing evidence now supports the association between the fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) with the pathogenesis of preterm labor, intraventricular hemorrhage and bronchopulmonary dysplasia. These disorders are among the most important causes of mortality and morbidity in the perinatal period. During the fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and monocytes (MONOs) are sequentially recruited into the placenta; the same process occurs in the lung of the newborn during the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The aim of the study was to reveal cell-specific differences in gene expression and cytokine release in response to endotoxin that would elucidate inflammatory control mechanisms in the newly born. Results: Compared to PMNs, MONOs had a greater diversity and more robust expression of pro-inflammatory (PI) gene expression at 4h. Only MONOs had genes changing expression in the JAK/STAT pathway including interleukin-10. Isolation of cord blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes separately from 5 subjects. Endotoxin stimulation in cell culture for 4 hours. Comparison of gene expression between PBS versus endotoxin (LPS).

Project description:INTRODUCTION: Persistent lung inflammation, with an influx of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes, occurs early in bronchopulmonary dysplasia. We hypothesized that: 1) that interleukin-10, a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine, would cause a markedly different gene expression profile compared to dexamethasone in these cells, and 2) monocyte insensitivity to dexamethasone was related to glucocorticoid receptor expression. RESULTS: For polymorphonuclear leukocytes, there were <20% of genes changing expression in common between interleukin-10 and dexamethasone. The monocyte had 5 times the number of genes changing expression with interleukin-10 compared to the polymorphonuclear leukocyte. Dexamethasone, in the therapeutic range, had no effect on gene expression in monocytes. The order of potency for inhibition of interleukin-8 release from monocytes was IL-10>betamethasone>> dexamethasone and hydrocortisone. Glucocorticoid potency was directly related to the degree of glucocorticoid receptor translocation to the monocyte nucleus. DISCUSSION: Gene expression profiles by IL-10 versus dexamethasone indicates that there may be major differences in efficacy and adverse effects if interleukin-10 is used for therapy in the future. Betamethasone may be a better therapeutic choice than dexamethasone. METHODS: Isolated cord blood cells were pre-incubated with anti-inflammatory agents prior to endotoxin stimulation. Measurements were made by microarrays, RT-qPCR, ELISA, and Western blots. Isolation of cord blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes separately from 5 subjects. Endotoxin stimulation in cell culture for 4 hours. Comparison of gene expression between endotoxin alone versus endotoxin-stimualted cells pretreated with interleukin-10 or dexamethasone (at equimolar, therapeutic levels, 10-8 M.

Project description:Human intestinal macrophages contribute to tissue homeostasis in noninflamed mucosa through profound down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine release. Here, we show that this down-regulation extends to Toll-like receptor (TLR)-induced cytokine release, as intestinal macrophages expressed TLR3-TLR9 but did not release cytokines in response to TLR-specific ligands. Likely contributing to this unique functional profile, intestinal macrophages expressed markedly down-regulated adapter proteins MyD88 and Toll interleukin receptor 1 domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon beta, which together mediate all TLR MyD88-dependent and -independent NF-kappaB signaling, did not phosphorylate NF-kappaB p65 or Smad-induced IkappaBalpha, and did not translocate NF-kappaB into the nucleus. Importantly, transforming growth factor-beta released from intestinal extracellular matrix (stroma) induced identical down-regulation in the NF-kappaB signaling and function of blood monocytes, the exclusive source of intestinal macrophages. Our findings implicate stromal transforming growth factor-beta-induced dysregulation of NF-kappaB proteins and Smad signaling in the differentiation of pro-inflammatory blood monocytes into noninflammatory intestinal macrophages. Comparison of unstimulated monocytes and macrophages, and flagellin stimulated monocytes and macrophages.

Project description:Keratin 1 (KRT1) and its heterodimer partner keratin 10 (KRT10) constitute the intermediate filament cytoskeleton of suprabasal skin keratinocytes. They participate in formation of the epidermal barrier, which protects against dehydration and inflammation. Mutations in KRT1 cause keratinopathic ichthyosis with erythema, recurrent inflammation, and barrier defects. Here, we show that genetic deletion of Krt1 in mice causes a defective inside-out epidermal barrier, pre- and postnatal increases in Mrp8/Mrp14, interleukin (IL) 18, IL-33, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) in skin extracts, and systemic release of IL-18 into newborn serum. Perinatal lethality was partially rescued by treatment with glucocorticoids to promote barrier repair or with IL- 18-blocking antibodies in utero. In human keratinocytes, IL-18 release was cellautonomous and caspase-1-dependent, indicating KRT1-dependent inflammasome activation. Our data reveal a novl function of KRT1 in controlling inflammasome activity and stimulating barrier formation, thereby integrating the keratin cytoskeleton into the epidermal immune response. In view of their widespread expression, keratins merit investigation of their functions in inflammatory conditions, including asthma and inflammatory bowel disorders. Total RNA was obtained from epidermis or full-thickness skin of Krt1+/+ and Krt1-/- mice (C57BL/6 background) at P0 (newborn).

Project description:Glucocorticoids (GC) are used as first line therapies for generalized suppression of inflammation (e.g. allergies or autoimmune diseases), but their long-term use is limited by severe side effects. Our previous work has revealed that GC induced a stable anti-inflammatory phenotype in monocytes, the glucocorticoid-stimulated monocytes (GCsM) that we now exploited for targeted GC-mediated therapeutic effects. We demonstrate that GCsM interact with T-cells in suppressing proliferation as well as cytokine release of CD8+ and especially CD4+ T-cells in vitro, and that they support generation of Foxp3+ cells. We therefore tested their immunosuppressive potential in CD4+ T-cell-induced colitis in vivo. We found that injection of GCsM into mice with already established severe colitis abolishes the inflammation and results in significant clinical improvement within a few days. T-cells recovered from GCsM-treated mice reveal reduced secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines IFN-M-oM-^AM-' or IL-17. Furthermore, accumulation of clusters of Foxp3+ CD4+ T-cells were detectable at local sites of inflammation in their colon. Thus, GCsM are able to modify T-cell responses in vitro and in vivo and are able to down-regulate and clinically cure an established severe T-cell mediated colitis. Bone marrow derived monocytes where cultured 16 h with media containing M-CSF (control monocytes) or media containing M-CSF and dexamethasone (GCsM). In three independent experiments, total RNA from GCsM and control monocytes was isolated and processed for microarray hybridization.

Project description:CD14+ monocytes, the predominant population in human blood, are primarily engaged in host defense and pro-inflammatory cytokine responses. Aberrant monocyte activity causes life-threatening cytokine storms, while dysfunctional monocytes lead to 'immunoparalysis.' Understanding the mechanisms controlling monocyte functions is therefore paramount. Here, we reveal platelets' vital role in human monocytes' pro-inflammatory responses. Natural low platelet counts in patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) , platelet depletion in healthy human monocytes, or in vivo platelet depletion in mice, result in monocyte immunoparalysis, characterized by reduced pro-inflammatory gene expression and weakened cytokine responses to immune challenge. Remarkably, supplementation with fresh platelets reverses monocyte immunoparalysis. In mice, thrombocytopenia results in down-regulation of myeloid innate immune genes, and compromised host defense transcriptional programs in monocytes despite normal responses to LPS. Platelets control monocyte cytokines independently of traditional cross-talk pathways, acting as reservoirs of transcription factors like NF?B and MAPK p38. We pinpointed a vesicle-derived NF?B2 transfer to human monocytes by mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Functionally, platelets proportionally restored impaired cytokine secretion in human monocytes lacking MAPK p38a and NF?B p65 and NF?B2. We unveil the intercellular transfer of inflammatory regulators, positioning platelets as central checkpoints in monocyte-mediated inflammation.

Project description:Diversity of biological molecules in newborn and adult immune cells contributes to differences in cell function and atopic properties. Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are reported involve in the regulation of immune system. Therefore, determining the miRNA expression profile of leukocyte sub-populations is important for understanding immune system regulation. In order to explore the unique microRNA profiling that contribute to altered immune in neonates, we comprehensively analyzed the functional miRNA signatures of eight leukocyte subsets (polymorphonuclear cells, monocytes, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, natural killer cells, B cells, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), and myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs)) from both neonatal and adult umbilical cord and peripheral blood samples, respectively. We observed distinct miRNA profiles between adult and neonatal blood leukocyte subsets, including unique miRNA signatures for each cell lineage. Leukocyte miRNA signatures were altered after stimulation. Adult peripheral leukocytes had higher let-7b-5p expression levels compared to neonatal cord leukocytes across multiple subsets, irrespective of stimulation. Transfecting neonatal monocytes with a let-7b-5p mimic resulted in a reduction of LPS-induced IL-6 and TNF-a production, while transfection of a let-7b-5p inhibitor into adult monocytes enhanced IL-6 and TNF-a production. With this functional approach, we provide intact differential microRNA expression profiling of specific immune cell subsets between neonates and adults. These studies serve as a basis to further understand the altered immune response observed in neonates and advance the development of therapeutic strategies
