Project description:The impact of cell origin on human lung macrophage identity and function remains unknown. In this study we characterized human alveolar macrophages of fetal versus adult origin. We used microarray to define the gene signatures of human alveolar macrophages derived from CD116+CD64+ fetal monocytes, CD116+CD64- fetal precursors, and CD34+ HSPCs in MISTRG humanized mice.

Project description:Alveolar macrophages (AMs) are lung resident phagocytes. They derive from fetal liver monocytes, which colonize the lung during embryonic development and give rise to fully mature AMs perinatally. We have identified TGF- signaling as an indispensible regulator during this process. To analyze the impact of TGF- on the entire transcriptome of AMs, we performed RNA-seq on AMs deficient of Tgfbr2 in CD11cCre/+ Tgfbr2fl/fl mice at P3 with Tgfbr2fl/fl littermates as a control.

Project description:The primary objective of this study was to compare global differences in transcriptional programming of resident and recruited alveolar macrophages in a time-limited murine model of lung inflammation. We first performed RNA sequencing of the resident and recruited alveolar macrophages from initiation through resolution of LPS-induced lung inflammation in the mouse. Our results indicate that despite existing in a shared environment, cell origin is the major determinant of programming of resident and recruited AMs during an acute inflammatory response. Major areas of difference include cell proliferation, inflammatory cytokine production and metabolism.

Project description:Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) results from a dysfunction of alveolar macrophages (AMs), chiefly due to disruptions in the signaling of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). We found that mice deficient for the B lymphoid transcription repressor BTB and CNC homology 2 (Bach2) developed PAP-like accumulation of surfactant proteins in the lungs. Bach2 was expressed in AMs, and Bach2-deficient AMs showed alterations in lipid handling in comparison with wild-type (WT) cells. Although Bach2-deficient AMs showed a normal expression of the genes involved in the GM-CSF signaling, they showed an altered expression of the genes involved in chemotaxis, lipid metabolism, and alternative M2 macrophage activation with increased expression of Ym1 and arginase-1, and the M2 regulator Irf4. Peritoneal Bach2-deficient macrophages showed increased Ym1 expression when stimulated with interleukin-4. More eosinophils were present in the lung and peritoneal cavity of Bach2-deficient mice compared with WT mice. The PAP-like lesions in Bach2-deficient mice were relieved by WT bone marrow transplantation even after their development, confirming the hematopoietic origin of the lesions. These results indicate that Bach2 is required for the functional maturation of AMs and pulmonary homeostasis, independently of the GM-CSF signaling. WT (n=8) and Bach2KO (n=3) AMs. One expreriment was performed.

Project description:Based on the observations that influenza infection led to behavioral changes in alveolar macrophages (AMs), we performed an RNAseq experiment to delineate global gene expression changes that occurred in the AM population after influenza infection versus a control (non-infected) population.

Project description:Alveolar macrophages (AMs) are tissue resident cells in the lungs derived from the fetal liver that maintain lung homeostasis and respond to inhaled stimuli. While the importance of AMs is undisputed, they remain refractory to standard experimental approaches and high-throughput functional genetics as they are challenging to isolate and rapidly lose AM properties in standard culture. This limitation hinders our understanding of key regulatory mechanisms that control AM maintenance and function. Here, we describe the development of a new model, fetal liver-derived alveolar-like macrophages (FLAMs), which maintains cellular morphologies, expression profiles, and functional mechanisms similar to murine AMs. FLAMs combine treatment with two key cytokines for AM maintenance, GM-CSF and TGFβ. We leveraged the long-term stability of FLAMs to develop functional genetic tools using CRISPR-Cas9-mediated gene editing. Targeted editing confirmed the role of AM-specific gene Marco and the IL-1 receptor Il1r1 in modulating the AM response to crystalline silica. Furthermore, a genome-wide knockout library using FLAMs identified novel genes required for surface expression of the AM marker Siglec-F, most notably those related to the peroxisome. Taken together, our results suggest that FLAMs are a stable, self-replicating model of AM function that enables previously impossible global genetic approaches to define the underlying mechanisms of AM maintenance and function.

Project description:Respiratory infections, like the current pandemic SARS-CoV-2 virus, target the epithelial cells in the respiratory tract. However, alveolar macrophages (AMs) are tissue-resident macrophages located within the alveoli of the lung and they play a key role in the early phases of an immune response to respiratory infections. We expect that AMs are the first immune cells to encounter the SARS-CoV-2 and therefore their reaction to SARS-CoV-2 infection will have a profound impact upon the outcome of the infection. Interferons (IFNs) are antiviral cytokines and the first cytokine produced upon viral infection. Here, we challenge AMs with SARS-CoV-2 and to our surprise find that the AMs are incapable of recognising SARS-CoV-2 and produce IFN. This is in contrast to respiratory pathogens, such as influenza A virus and Sendai virus. Callenge of AMs with those viruses resulted in a robust IFN response. The absence of IFN production by AMs upon challenge could explain the initial asymptotic phase of SARS-CoV-2 infections and argues against the AMs as the source of proinflamatory cytokines later in infection.
