Abstract
BACKGROUND Crystalline silica (cSiO2) is a mineral found in rocks; workers from the construction or denim industries are particularly exposed to cSiO2 through inhalation. cSiO2 inhalation increases the risk of silicosis and systemic autoimmune diseases. Inhaled cSiO2 microparticles can reach the alveoli where they induce inflammation, cell death, auto-immunity and fibrosis but the specific molecular pathways involved in these cSiO2 effects remain unclear. This systematic review aims to provide a comprehensive state of the art on omic approaches and exposure models used to study the effects of inhaled cSiO2 in mice and rats and to highlight key results from omic data in rodents also validated in human. METHODS The protocol of systematic review follows PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. Eligible articles were identified in PubMed, Embase and Web of Science. The search strategy included original articles published after 1990 and written in English which included mouse or rat models exposed to cSiO2 and utilized omic approaches to identify pathways modulated by cSiO2. Data were extracted and quality assessment was based on the SYRCLE's Risk of Bias tool for animal studies. RESULTS Rats and male rodents were the more used models while female rodents and autoimmune prone models were less studied. Exposure of animals were both acute and chronic and the timing of outcome measurement through omics approaches were homogeneously distributed. Transcriptomic techniques were more commonly performed while proteomic, metabolomic and single-cell omic methods were less utilized. Immunity and inflammation were the main domains modified by cSiO2 exposure in lungs of mice and rats. Less than 20% of the results obtained in rodents were finally verified in humans. CONCLUSION Omic technics offer new insights on the effects of cSiO2 exposure in mice and rats although the majority of data still need to be validated in humans. Autoimmune prone model should be better characterised and systemic effects of cSiO2 need to be further studied to better understand cSiO2-induced autoimmunity. Single-cell omics should be performed to inform on pathological processes induced by cSiO2 exposure.

Abstract
The underlying mechanisms of asbestos-related autoimmunity are poorly understood. As the size, surface reactivity, and free radical activity of asbestos particles are considered crucial regarding the health effects, this study aims to compare the effects of exposure to pristine amosite (pAmo) or milled amosite (mAmo) particles on lung damage, autoimmunity, and macrophage phenotype. Four months after lung exposure to 0.1 mg of amosite, BAL levels of lactate dehydrogenase, protein, free DNA, CCL2, TGF-β1, TIMP-1, and immunoglobulin A of pAmo-exposed C57Bl/6 mice were increased when compared to fluids from control- and mAmo-exposed mice. Effects in pAmo-exposed mice were associated with lung fibrosis and autoimmunity including anti-double-strand DNA autoantibody production. mAmo or pAmo at 20 µg/cm2 induced a pro-inflammatory phenotype characterized by a significant increase in TNFα and IL-6 secretion on human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs). mAmo and pAmo exposure induced a decrease in the efferocytosis capacities of MDMs, whereas macrophage abilities to phagocyte fluorescent beads were unchanged when compared to control MDMs. mAmo induced IL-6 secretion and reduced the percentage of MDMs expressing MHCII and CD86 markers involved in antigen and T-lymphocyte stimulation. By contrast, pAmo but not mAmo activated the NLRP3 inflammasome, as evaluated through quantification of caspase-1 activity and IL-1β secretion. Our results demonstrated that long-term exposure to pAmo may induce significant lung damage and autoimmune effects, probably through an alteration of macrophage phenotype, supporting in vivo the higher toxicity of entire amosite (pAmo) with respect to grinded amosite. However, considering their impact on efferocytosis and co-stimulation markers, mAmo effects should not be neglected. KEY MESSAGES: Lung fibrosis and autoimmunity induced by amosite particles depend on their physicochemical characteristics (size and surface) Inhalation exposure of mice to pristine amosite fibers is associated with lung fibrosis and autoimmunity Anti-dsDNA antibody is a marker of autoimmunity in mice exposed to pristine amosite fibers Activation of lung mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue, characterized by IgA production, after exposure to pristine amosite fibers Pristine and milled amosite particle exposure reduced the efferocytosis capacity of human-derived macrophages.

Abstract
While exposure to long amphibolic asbestos fibers (L > 10 µm) results in the development of severe diseases including inflammation, fibrosis, and mesothelioma, the pathogenic activity associated with short fibers (L < 5 µm) is less clear. By exposing murine macrophages to short (SFA) or long (LFA) fibers of amosite asbestos different in size and surface chemistry, we observed that SFA internalization resulted in pyroptotic-related immunogenic cell death (ICD) characterized by the release of the pro-inflammatory damage signal (DAMP) IL-1α after inflammasome activation and gasdermin D (GSDMD)-pore formation. In contrast, macrophage responses to non-internalizable LFA were associated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) release, caspase-3 and -7 activation, and apoptosis. SFA effects exclusively resulted from Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), a pattern-recognition receptor (PRR) recognized for its ability to sense particles, while the response to LFA was elicited by a multifactorial ignition system involving the macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (SR-A6 or MARCO), reactive oxygen species (ROS) cascade, and TLR4. Our findings indicate that asbestos fiber size and surface features play major roles in modulating ICD and inflammatory pathways. They also suggest that SFA are biologically reactive in vitro and, therefore, their inflammatory and toxic effects in vivo should not be underestimated.

Abstract
Introduction: Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKinibs) constitute an emerging and promising pharmacological class of anti-inflammatory or anti-cancer drugs, used notably for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and some myeloproliferative neoplasms.Areas covered: This review provides an overview of the interactions between marketed JAKinibs and major uptake and efflux drug transporters. Consequences regarding pharmacokinetics, drug-drug interactions and toxicity are summarized.Expert opinion: JAKinibs interact in vitro with transporters in various ways, as inhibitors or as substrates of transporters or as regulators of transporter expression. This may theoretically result in drug-drug interactions (DDIs), with JAKinibs acting as perpetrators or as victims, or in toxicity, via impairment of thiamine transport. Clinical significance in terms of DDIs for JAKinib-transporter interactions remains however poorly documented. In this context, the in vivo unbound concentration of JAKinibs is likely a key parameter to consider for evaluating the clinical relevance of JAKinibs-mediated transporter inhibition. Additionally, the interplay with drug metabolism as well as possible interactions with transporters of emerging importance and time-dependent inhibition have to be taken into account. The role drug transporters may play in controlling cellular JAKinib concentrations and efficacy in target cells is also an issue of interest.

Abstract
Biodiesel is considered as a valuable and less toxic alternative to diesel. However, cellular and molecular effects of repeated exposure to biodiesel emissions from a recent engine equipped with a diesel particle filter (DPF) remain to be characterized. To gain insights about this point, the lung transcriptional signatures were analyzed for rats (n = 6 per group) exposed to filtered air, 30% rapeseed biodiesel (B30) blend or reference diesel (RF0), upstream and downstream a DPF, for 3 weeks (3 h/day, 5 days/week). Genomic analysis revealed a modest regulation of gene expression level (lower than a 2-fold) by both fuels and a higher number of genes regulated downstream the DPF than upstream, in response to either RF0 or to B30 exhaust emissions. The presence of DPF was found to notably impact the lung gene signature of rats exposed to B30. The number of genes regulated in common by both fuels was low, which is likely due to differences in concentrations of regulated pollutants in exhausts, notably for compound organic volatiles, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, NO or NOx. Nevertheless, we have identified some pathways that were activated for both exhaust emissions, such as integrin-, IGF-1- and Rac-signaling pathways, likely reflecting the effects of gas phase products. By contrast, some canonical pathways relative to "oxidative phosphorylation" and "mitochondrial dysfunction" appear as specific to B30 exhaust emission; the repression of transcripts of mitochondrial respiratory chain in lung of rats exposed to B30 downstream of DPF supports the perturbation of mitochondria function. This study done with a recent diesel engine (compliant with the European IV emission standard) and commercially-available fuels reveals that the diesel blend composition and the presence of an after treatment system may modify lung gene signature of rats repeatedly exposed to exhaust emissions, however in a rather modest manner.

Abstract
Background:Macrophage can adopt various phenotypes and activation states according to their surrounding microenvironment. M1 or inflammatory macrophages are generated under IFNɣ/LPS signaling and express the membrane marker CD86. Different subtypes of M2 macrophages are also described: M2a macrophages (generated under IL4/IL13 signaling) and characterized by a high expression of CD206 and pro-fibrotic properties and, M2c macrophages (generated under IL10 and/or glucorticoid signaling), considered as anti-inflammatory resolving macrophages. There is growing interest in the role of macrophages in the pathogenesis of Systemic Sclerosis (SSc). Recent studies highlight that macrophages from fibrotic tissues such as lung or skin from SSc patients have a M2 phenotype whereas, in blood-monocytes derived macrophages (MDM), SSc MDM have a mixed signature associating M1 and M2 characteristics. Jak inhibitors are treatments used in rheumatoid arthritis and that can variously target signals that could be involved both in M1 and in M2 polarisation.Objectives:This study evaluates the impact of three Jak inhibitors on the polarisation state of human MDM in vitro.Methods:Blood monocytes form healthy donors (HD) were differentiated with M-CSF (for 7 days) in MDM and pre-treated by ruxolitinib (Jak2-Jak1 inhibitor), tofacitinib (Jak3 inhibitor) or itacitinib (Jak1 inhibitor) (1µM for all). They were then polarised into M1i (IFNɣ, 20µg/mL), M1Li (IFNɣ+LPS, 20µg/mL), M2a (IL4+IL13; 20µg/ML), M2c (IL10, 20µg/mL) and M2c(dex) (IL10+dexamethasone, 10 nM). The impact of each Jak inhibitor on phenotype (flow cytometry), gene expression (qPCR) and cytokine secretion (ELISA) was evaluated in each polarisation state.Results:Concerning phenotypes, all Jak inhibitors reduced the expression of the M1i and M1Li marker CD86, but ruxolitinib had a higher effect. Only ruxolitinib reduced the expression of the M1i marker MHCII. All Jak inhibitors reduced the expression of CD206 in M2a. They had no impact on the expression of CD163, CD204 in any M2 conditions. Key M1 genes were repressed by all Jak inhibitors, such as CXCL10, IL6 or TNFα with a more significant effect of ruxolitinib. All Jak inhibitors reduced the gene expression of CXCL13 and SOCS3 in M2c. Secretion levels of IL6 and CCL18 were also repressed, with a more significant effect of ruxolitinib.Conclusion:Jak inhibitors can limit M1 and M2 polarisation state in vitro, with a more significant effect of the Jak2-Jak1 inhibitor ruxolitinib. The relevance of these results in MDM from SSc patients and in vivo models of SSc is still to be determined.Disclosure of Interests:Alain LESCOAT: None declared, Alice Ballerie: None declared, Marie Lelong: None declared, Claudie Morzadec: None declared, Stéphane Jouneau Grant/research support from: AIRB, Boehringer Ingelheim, LVL Medical, Novartis, Roche, Bellorophon Therapeutics, Biogen, Fibrogen, Galecto Biotech, Gilead Sciences, Pharm-Olam, Pliant Therapeutics, Savara Pharmaceuticals/Serendex Pharmaceuticals, Consultant of: Actelion, AIRB, AstraZeneca, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Boehringer Ingelheim, Chiesi, Genzyme, GlazoSmithKline, LVL Medical, Mundipharma, Novartis, Pfizer, Roche, Sanofi, Patrick Jégo: None declared, Laurent Vernhet: None declared, Olivier Fardel: None declared, Valérie Lecureur: None declared

Abstract
The chemokine CXCL13 controls the normal organization of secondary lymphoid tissues and the neogenesis of ectopic lymphoid structures in nonlymphoid organs, particularly the lungs. The progression and severity of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a fatal and irreversible interstitial lung disease, is predicted by the circulating blood concentrations of CXCL13. Although CXCL13 is produced by pulmonary tissues, it has not been determined which cells are involved. This study examines CXCL13 production by lung tissue macrophages from patients with IPF and the signaling pathways controlling CXCL13 gene expression in human alveolar macrophages (AM) and monocyte-derived macrophages (MoDM). CXCL13 is found in CD68- and CD206-positive AM from patients with IPF, and the CXCL13 gene is induced in these macrophages and MoDM when they are stimulated with LPS. We found that TNF-α and IL-10 control optimal CXCL13 gene expression in MoDM and possibly in AM by activating the NF-κB and JAK/STAT pathways, respectively. We also found that blood TNF-α and CXCL13 concentrations are significantly correlated in patients with IPF, suggesting that TNF-α contributes to CXCL13 production in humans. In conclusion, the results of this study demonstrate that AM from patients with IPF produces CXCL13 and that the NF-κB and JAK/STAT pathways are required to induce the expression of this major chemokine.

Abstract
Inhalation of crystalline silica (SiO2) is a risk factor of systemic autoimmune diseases such as systemic sclerosis (SSc) and fibrotic pulmonary disorders such as silicosis. A defect of apoptotic cell clearance (i.e., efferocytosis, a key process in the resolution of inflammation) is reported in macrophages from patients with fibrotic or autoimmune diseases. However, the precise links between SiO2 exposure and efferocytosis impairment remain to be determined. Answering to this question may help to better link innate immunity and fibrosis. In this study, we first aim to determine whether SiO2 might alter efferocytosis capacities of human and mouse macrophages. We secondly explore possible mechanisms explaining efferocytosis impairment, with a specific focus on macrophage polarization and on the RhoA/ROCK pathway, a key regulator of cytoskeleton remodeling and phagocytosis. Human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) and C57BL/6J mice exposed to SiO2 and to CFSE-positive apoptotic Jurkat cells were analyzed by flow cytometry to determine their efferocytosis index (EI). The effects of ROCK inhibitors (Y27632 and Fasudil) on EI of SiO2-exposed MDM and MDM from SSc patients were evaluated in vitro. Our results demonstrated that SiO2 significantly decreased EI of human MDM in vitro and mouse alveolar macrophages in vivo. In human MDM, this SiO2-associated impairment of efferocytosis, required the expression of the membrane receptor SR-B1 and was associated with a decreased expression of M2 polarization markers (CD206, CD204, and CD163). F-actin staining, RhoA activation and impairment of efferocytosis, all induced by SiO2, were reversed by ROCK inhibitors. Moreover, the EI of MDM from SSc patients was similar to the EI of in vitro- SiO2-exposed MDM and Y27632 significantly increased SSc MDM efferocytosis capacities, suggesting a likewise activation of the RhoA/ROCK pathway in SSc. Altogether, our results demonstrate that SiO2 exposure may contribute to the impairment of efferocytosis capacities of mouse and human macrophages but also of MDM in SiO2-associated autoimmune diseases and fibrotic disorders such as SSc; in this context, the silica/RhoA/ROCK pathway may constitute a relevant therapeutic target.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN To determine whether inflammatory hepatocytes may constitute primary targets for ruxolitinib, a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, its effects towards expression of hepatic acute-phase proteins, especially C-reactive protein (CRP), were assessed. MATERIALS Ruxolitinib effects were analysed in primary human hepatocytes and human hepatoma HepaRG cells exposed to various inflammatory stimuli. RESULTS Ruxolitinib was found to fully inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced CRP secretion and mRNA expression, at concentrations (IC50 = 12.9 nM) achievable in human blood. It similarly repressed CRP up-regulation due to several Toll-like receptor agonists or pro-inflammatory cytokines [interleukin (IL) 1β, IL6 and tumour necrosis factor α] and counteracted LPS-mediated induction of serum amyloid A, fibrinogen, haptoglobin and serpin. Ruxolitinib was additionally found to block the activation of the IL6/JAK/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway triggered by LPS and whose inhibition by the neutralizing anti-IL6 receptor antibody tocilizumab prevented CRP induction. CONCLUSION Ruxolitinib can potently repress induction of CRP in inflammatory human hepatocytes, most likely through targeting the IL6/JAK/STAT signalling cascade. Hepatic production of acute-phase proteins during liver inflammation may, therefore, constitute a target for ruxolitinib.

Abstract
Bacterial type I toxin–antitoxin (TA) systems are widespread, and consist of a stable toxic peptide whose expression is monitored by a labile RNA antitoxin. We characterized Staphylococcus aureus SprA2/SprA2AS module, which shares nucleotide similarities with the SprA1/SprA1AS TA system. We demonstrated that SprA2/SprA2AS encodes a functional type I TA system, with the cis-encoded SprA2AS antitoxin acting in trans to prevent ribosomal loading onto SprA2 RNA. We proved that both TA systems are distinct, with no cross-regulation between the antitoxins in vitro or in vivo. SprA2 expresses PepA2, a toxic peptide which internally triggers bacterial death. Conversely, although PepA2 does not affect bacteria when it is present in the extracellular medium, it is highly toxic to other host cells such as polymorphonuclear neutrophils and erythrocytes. Finally, we showed that SprA2AS expression is lowered during osmotic shock and stringent response, which indicates that the system responds to specific triggers. Therefore, the SprA2/SprA2AS module is not redundant with SprA1/SprA1AS, and its PepA2 peptide exhibits an original dual mode of action against bacteria and host cells. This suggests an altruistic behavior for S. aureus in which clones producing PepA2 in vivo shall die as they induce cytotoxicity, thereby promoting the success of the community.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase inhibitor, Nintedanib (NTD), has been approved for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). In cell-free systems, NTD was recently shown to inhibit kinase activity of the human recombinant colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF1) receptor (CSF1R) which mediates major functions of pulmonary macrophages. In the present study, we have investigated the effects of NTD on the phenotype of human monocyte-derived macrophages controlled by CSF1 in order to identify its anti-inflammatory properties via CSF1R inhibition. NTD (0.01 to 1 μM) prevented the CSF1-induced phosphorylation of CSF1R and activation of the downstream signaling pathways. NTD, like the CSF1R inhibitor GW2580, significantly decreased the adhesion of macrophages and production of the chemokine ligand (CCL) 2. NTD also altered the polarization of macrophages to classical M1 and alternative M2a macrophages. It reduced the secretion of several pro-inflammatory and/or pro-fibrotic cytokines (IL-1β, IL-8, IL-10 and CXCL13) by M1 macrophages but did not prevent the expression of M1 markers. While NTD (50-200 nM) partially blocked the synthesis of M2a markers (CD11b, CD200R, CD206, and CD209), it did not reduce synthesis of the M2a pro-fibrotic cytokines CCL22 and PDGF-BB, and increased CCL18 release when used at its highest concentration (1 μM). The effects of NTD on macrophage polarization only was partially mimicked by GW2580, suggesting that the drug inhibits other molecules in addition to CSF1R. In conclusion, NTD alters the CSF1-controlled phenotype of human macrophages mainly by blocking the activation of CSF1R that thus constitutes a new molecular target of NTD, at least in vitro.

Abstract
Diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) are common environmental air pollutants known to impair expression and activity of drug detoxifying proteins, including hepatic ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug transporters. The present study was designed to determine whether organic DEP extract (DEPe) may also target ABC drug transporters in bronchial cells. DEPe (10 μg/mL) was demonstrated to induce mRNA and protein expression of the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 3 in cultured bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells, whereas mRNA levels of other MRPs, multidrug resistance gene 1 or breast cancer resistance protein were unchanged, reduced or not detected. DEPe also increased MRP3 mRNA expression in normal human bronchial epithelial cells. Inhibition of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway by AhR antagonist or AhR silencing, as well as the silencing of nuclear-factor-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) repressed DEPe-mediated MRP3 induction. This underlines the implication of the AhR and Nrf2 signaling cascades in DEPe-mediated MRP3 regulation. DEPe was additionally demonstrated to directly inhibit MRP activity in BEAS-2B cells, in a concentration-dependent manner. Taken together, these data indicate that DEPs may impair expression and activity of MRPs, notably MRP3, in human bronchial cells, which may have consequences in terms of lung barrier and toxicity for humans exposed to diesel pollution.

Abstract
Diesel exhaust (DE) contributes to air pollution, an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. However, the mechanisms by which DE exposure induces cardiovascular dysfunction remain unknown and there is still debate on the contribution of the primary particulate matter (PM) fraction compared to the gaseous phase. Although the mitochondria play a key role in the events leading to cardiovascular diseases, their role in DE-induced cardiovascular effects has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to highlight cardiac and mitochondrial events that could be disrupted following acute and/or repeated DE exposures and the contribution of gaseous pollutants to these effects. To address this question, Wistar rats were exposed to DE generated under strictly controlled and characterized conditions and extracted upstream or downstream of the diesel particulate filter (DPF). Evaluation of the cardiac function after acute DE exposure showed a disturbance in echocardiographic parameters, which persisted and worsened after repeated exposures. The presence of the DPF did not modify the cardiovascular dysfunction revealing an important implication of the gas phase in this response. Surprisingly, redox parameters were not altered by DE exposures while an alteration in mitochondrial oxidative capacity was observed. Exploration of the mitochondrial function demonstrated a more specific alteration in complex I of the respiratory chain after repeated exposures, which was further confirmed by transcriptional analysis of left ventricular (LV) tissue. In conclusion, this work provides new insights into cardiovascular effects induced by DE, demonstrating a cardiac mitochondrial impairment associated with the gaseous phase. These effects suggest deleterious consequences in terms of cardiac function for vulnerable populations with underlying energy deficit such as patients with heart failure or the elderly.

Abstract
A defect in the apoptotic cell clearance (efferocytosis) by phagocytic cells may participate in autoimmunity and chronic inflammation. The mechanisms leading to the emergence of autoimmunity in systemic sclerosis (SSc) are still to be determined. In this study, the efferocytosis capacities of blood monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) from patients with SSc were evaluated. Blood monocytes obtained from patients with SSc and healthy donors (HD) were differentiated in vitro into macrophages. The capacities of MDM to engulf CFSE+ apoptotic Jurkat human T lymphocytes were compared between SSc MDM and HD using flow cytometry. The expression of classical engulfing receptors in SSc MDM and HD MDM was also evaluated and their involvement in the modulation of efferocytosis was confirmed using a siRNA approach. The mean phagocytic index (PI) reflecting efferocytosis capacities of SSc MDM (PI = 19.3 ± 3.0; n = 21) was significantly decreased in comparison with the PI of HD MDM (PI = 35.9 ± 3.0; n = 31; P < 0.001). In comparison with HD, SSc MDM exhibited a downregulated expression of scavenger receptor (SR)-B1, SR-A1 and integrin β5 (ITGβ5). In HD MDM, the extinction of these receptors was followed by a reduction of efferocytosis only for the repression of ITGβ5, suggesting a possible selective role of this integrin in the impaired efferocytosis observed in SSc. As efferocytosis may be at the crossroads of inflammation, autoimmunity and fibrosis, in showing impaired efferocytosis capacities of blood MDM in SSc, our study offers new pathogenesis considerations for the involvement of macrophages in the autoimmune processes driving this disorder.
