Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a genetic muscle disease characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis mediated by a pro-fibrotic macrophage population expressing pro-inflammatory markers. Our aim was to characterize cellular events leading to the alteration of macrophage properties and to modulate macrophage inflammatory status using the gaseous mediator hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Using co-culture experiments, we first showed that myofibers derived from mdx mice strongly skewed the polarization of resting macrophages towards a pro-inflammatory phenotype. Treatment of mdx mice with NaHS, an H2S donor, reduced the number of pro-inflammatory macrophages in skeletal muscle, which was associated with a decreased number of nuclei per fiber, as well as reduced myofiber branching and fibrosis. Finally, we established the metabolic sensor AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) as a critical NaHS target in muscle macrophages. These results identify an interplay between myofibers and macrophages where dystrophic myofibers contribute to the maintenance of a highly inflammatory environment sustaining a pro-inflammatory macrophage status, which in turn favors myofiber damage, myofiber branching and establishment of fibrosis. Our results also highlight the use of H2S donors as a potential therapeutic strategy to improve the dystrophic muscle phenotype by dampening chronic inflammation. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Abstract
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is the most potent anti-inflammatory cytokine in the body and plays an essential role in determining outcomes of many inflammatory diseases. Cellular metabolism is a critical determinant of immune cell function; however, it is currently unclear whether metabolic processes are specifically involved in IL-10 production. In this study, we aimed to find the central metabolic molecule regulating IL-10 production of macrophages, which are the main producers of IL-10. Transcriptomic analysis identified that metabolic changes were predominantly enriched in Kupffer cells at the early inflammatory phase of a mouse endotoxemia model. Among them, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK)-dependent acute glycolysis was negatively involved in IL-10 production. Inhibition or knockdown of PDK selectively increased macrophage IL-10 expression. Mechanistically, PDK inhibition increased IL-10 production via profound phosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase alpha 1 (AMPKα1) by restricting glucose uptake in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages. AMPKα1 consequently activated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, c-Jun N-terminal kinase, and cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein to regulate IL-10 production. Our study uncovers a previously unknown regulatory mechanism of IL-10 in activated macrophages involving an immunometabolic function of PDK.

Abstract
Tissue repair/regeneration, after implantation or injury, involves comprehensive physiological processes wherein immune responses play a crucial role to enable tissue restoration, amidst the immune cells early-stage response to tissue damages. These cells break down extracellular matrix, clear debris, and secret cytokines to orchestrate regeneration. However, the immune response can also lead to abnormal tissue healing or scar formation if not well directed. This review first introduces the general immune response post injury, with focus on the major immune cells including neutrophils, macrophages, and T cells. Next, a variety of implant-mediated immunomodulation strategies to regulate immune response through physical, chemical, and biological cues are discussed. At last, various scaffold-facilitated regenerations of different tissue types, such as, bone, cartilage, blood vessel, and nerve system, by harnessing the immunomodulation are presented. Therefore, the most recent data in biomaterials and immunomodulation is presented here in a bid to shape expert perspectives, inspire researchers to go in new directions, and drive development of future strategies focusing on targeted, sequential, and dynamic immunomodulation elicited by implants.

Abstract
Monocytes and macrophages may be involved in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis (SSc); however, the etiology and regulation of monocyte and macrophage function in SSc remain unknown. IRF8 is a transcriptional regulator that is essential for the differentiation and function of monocytes and macrophages and thus may be involved in the regulation of macrophage phenotypes in SSc fibrosis. In this study, we measured IRF8 levels in circulating monocytes of 26 patients with SSc (diffuse cutaneous SSc, n = 11; limited cutaneous SSc, n = 15) and 14 healthy controls. IRF8 levels were significantly suppressed in monocytes of patients with diffuse cutaneous SSc and correlated negatively with the modified Rodnan total skin thickness score. Next, we assessed expression levels of cell surface markers, cytokine profiles, and components of extracellular matrix in IRF8-silenced monocyte-derived macrophages. IRF8-silenced monocyte-derived macrophages displayed an M2 phenotype and significantly upregulated mRNA and protein levels of profibrotic factors and extracellular matrix components. Finally, we assessed skin fibrosis in myeloid cell-specific IRF8 conditional knockout (Irf8flox/flox; Lyz2Cre/+) mice and found upregulated mRNA levels of extracellular matrix components and increased bleomycin-induced skin fibrosis. In conclusion, altered IRF8 regulation in monocytes and macrophages may be involved in SSc pathogenesis.

The role of macrophage polarization and associated mechanisms in regulating the anti-inflammatory action of acupuncture: a literature review and perspectives. Chin Med 2021; 16:56. [PMID: 34281592 PMCID: PMC8287695 DOI: 10.1186/s13020-021-00466-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2021] [Accepted: 07/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Acupuncture is used in the treatment of a variety of inflammatory conditions and diseases. However, the mechanisms of its anti-inflammatory action are complex and have not been systematically investigated. Macrophages are key components of the innate immune system, thus, balancing the M1/M2 macrophage ratio and modulating cytokine levels in the inflammatory environment may be desirable therapeutic goals. Evidence has shown that acupuncture has anti-inflammatory actions that affect multiple body systems, including the immune, locomotory, endocrine, nervous, digestive, and respiratory systems, by downregulating pro-inflammatory M1 and upregulating anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages, as well as by modulating associated cytokine secretion. Macrophage polarization is controlled by the interlocking pathways of extrinsic factors, the local tissue microenvironment, and the neural-endocrine-immune systems. It has been suggested that polarization of T lymphocytes and cytokine secretions resulting in modulation of the autonomic nervous system and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, may be upstream mechanisms of acupuncture-induced macrophage polarization. We further propose that macrophage polarization could be the principal pathway involved in acupuncture immune regulation and provide the scientific basis for the clinical application of acupuncture in inflammatory conditions.

Roles of Eicosanoids in Regulating Inflammation and Neutrophil Migration as an Innate Host Response to Bacterial Infections. Infect Immun 2021; 89:e0009521.

Abstract
Eicosanoids are lipid-based signaling molecules that play a unique role in innate immune responses. The multiple types of eicosanoids, such as prostaglandins (PGs) and leukotrienes (LTs), allow the innate immune cells to respond rapidly to bacterial invaders. Bacterial pathogens alter cyclooxygenase (COX)-derived prostaglandins (PGs) in macrophages, such as PGE2 15d-PGJ2, and lipoxygenase (LOX)-derived leukotriene LTB4, which has chemotactic functions. The PG synthesis and secretion are regulated by substrate availability of arachidonic acid and by the COX-2 enzyme, and the expression of this protein is regulated at multiple levels, both transcriptionally and posttranscriptionally. Bacterial pathogens use virulence strategies such as type three secretion systems (T3SSs) to deliver virulence factors altering the expression of eicosanoid-specific biosynthetic enzymes, thereby modulating the host response to bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Recent advances have identified a novel role of eicosanoids in inflammasome activation during intracellular infection with bacterial pathogens. Specifically, PGE2 was found to enhance inflammasome activation, driving the formation of pore-induced intracellular traps (PITs), thus trapping bacteria from escaping the dying cell. Finally, eicosanoids and IL-1β released from macrophages are implicated in the efferocytosis of neighboring neutrophils. Neutrophils play an essential role in phagocytosing and degrading PITs and associated bacteria to restore homeostasis. This review focuses on the novel functions of host-derived eicosanoids in the host-pathogen interactions.

Abstract
Several infectious pathologies in humans, such as tuberculosis or SARS-CoV-2, are responsible for tissue or lung damage, requiring regeneration. The regenerative capacity of adult mammals is limited to few organs. Critical injuries of non-regenerative organs trigger a repair process that leads to a definitive architectural and functional disruption, while superficial wounds result in scar formation. Tissue lesions in mammals, commonly studied under non-infectious conditions, trigger cell death at the site of the injury, as well as the production of danger signals favouring the massive recruitment of immune cells, particularly macrophages. Macrophages are also of paramount importance in infected injuries, characterized by the presence of pathogenic microorganisms, where they must respond to both infection and tissue damage. In this review, we compare the processes implicated in the tissue repair of non-infected versus infected injuries of two organs, the skeletal muscles and the lungs, focusing on the primary role of macrophages. We discuss also the negative impact of infection on the macrophage responses and the possible routes of investigation for new regenerative therapies to improve the recovery state as seen with COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle is a tissue able to fully regenerate after an acute injury. Macrophages play an essential role during skeletal muscle regeneration. Resolution of inflammation is a crucial step during the regeneration process, allowing to contain the inflammatory response to avoid damage of the healthy surrounding muscle and triggers the recovery phase during which the muscle regenerates. Resolution of inflammation is mainly mediated by macrophage phenotypic shift that is the transition from a pro-inflammatory damage associated profile towards an anti-inflammatory restorative phenotype, which is characterized by a major transcriptional rewiring. Failure of the resolution of inflammation is observed in chronic diseases such as degenerative myopathies where permanent asynchronous muscle injuries trigger contradictory inflammatory cues, leading to fibrosis and alteration of muscle function. This review will focus on the described molecular pathways that control macrophage inflammatory shift during skeletal muscle regeneration. First, we will highlight the transcriptional changes that characterize macrophage inflammatory shift during skeletal muscle regeneration. Then, we will describe how the signaling pathways and the metabolic changes associated with this shift are controlled. Finally, we will emphasize the transcription factors involved.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is caused by a thromboembolic occlusion of a major cerebral artery, with the impaired blood flow triggering neuroinflammation and subsequent neuronal damage. Both the innate immune system (e.g., neutrophils, monocytes/macrophages) in the acute ischemic stroke phase and the adaptive immune system (e.g., T cells, B cells) in the chronic phase contribute to this neuroinflammatory process. Considering that the available therapeutic strategies are insufficiently successful, there is an urgent need for novel treatment options. It has been shown that increasing cAMP levels lowers neuroinflammation. By inhibiting cAMP-specific phosphodiesterases (PDEs), i.e., PDE4, 7, and 8, neuroinflammation can be tempered through elevating cAMP levels and, thereby, this can induce an improved functional recovery. This review discusses recent preclinical findings, clinical implications, and future perspectives of cAMP-specific PDE inhibition as a novel research interest for the treatment of ischemic stroke. In particular, PDE4 inhibition has been extensively studied, and is promising for the treatment of acute neuroinflammation following a stroke, whereas PDE7 and 8 inhibition more target the T cell component. In addition, more targeted PDE4 gene inhibition, or combined PDE4 and PDE7 or 8 inhibition, requires more extensive research.

Abstract
The adult skeletal muscle fully regenerates after injury thanks to the properties of muscle stem cells that follow the adult myogenic program to replace damaged myofibers. Muscle regeneration also relies upon the coordinated actions of several other cell types, among which immune cells. Leukocytes infiltrate the damaged muscle soon after injury and support the regeneration process in a variety of ways, from the activation of muscle stem cells to the maturation of newly formed myofibers. Leukocytes also interact with other cell types such as fibroadipogenic precursors and endothelial cells. This review presents the interactions that leukocytes develop with the cells present in their vicinity and the impact they have on skeletal muscle regeneration.

[PMID: 34044272 PMCID: PMC8222190 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2021.111753] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2021] [Revised: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 05/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have critical role in the pathophysiology as well as recovery after ischemic stroke. ncRNAs, particularly microRNAs, and the long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critical for angiogenesis and neuroprotection, and they have been suggested to be therapeutic, diagnostic and prognostic tools in cerebrovascular diseases, including stroke. Moreover, exosomes have been considered as nanocarriers capable of transferring various cargos, such as lncRNAs and miRNAs to recipient cells, with prominent inter-cellular roles in the mediation of neuro-restorative events following strokes and neural injuries. In this review, we summarize the pathogenic role of ncRNAs and exosomal ncRNAs in the stroke.

Khabipov A, Freund E, Liedtke KR, Käding A, Riese J, van der Linde J, Kersting S, Partecke LI, Bekeschus S. Murine Macrophages Modulate Their Inflammatory Profile in Response to Gas Plasma-Inactivated Pancreatic Cancer Cells. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:2525. [PMID: 34064000 PMCID: PMC8196763 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13112525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Revised: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 05/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Macrophages and immuno-modulation play a dominant role in the pathology of pancreatic cancer. Gas plasma is a technology recently suggested to demonstrate anticancer efficacy. To this end, two murine cell lines were employed to analyze the inflammatory consequences of plasma-treated pancreatic cancer cells (PDA) on macrophages using the kINPen plasma jet. Plasma treatment decreased the metabolic activity, viability, and migratory activity in an ROS- and treatment time-dependent manner in PDA cells in vitro. These results were confirmed in pancreatic tumors grown on chicken embryos in the TUM-CAM model (in ovo). PDA cells promote tumor-supporting M2 macrophage polarization and cluster formation. Plasma treatment of PDA cells abrogated this cluster formation with a mixed M1/M2 phenotype observed in such co-cultured macrophages. Multiplex chemokine and cytokine quantification showed a marked decrease of the neutrophil chemoattractant CXCL1, IL6, and the tumor growth supporting TGFβ and VEGF in plasma-treated compared to untreated co-culture settings. At the same time, macrophage-attractant CCL4 and MCP1 release were profoundly enhanced. These cellular and secretome data suggest that the plasma-inactivated PDA6606 cells modulate the inflammatory profile of murine RAW 264.7 macrophages favorably, which may support plasma cancer therapy.

Abstract
2,4',5'-Trihydroxyl-5,2'-dibromo diphenylmethanone (LM49), an active halophenol derivative synthesized by our group, which exhibits a broad spectrum of therapeutic properties, such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. In this study, we found LM49 could obviously attenuate acute liver injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice by polarizing macrophages. The protective effect was described by reducing the hepatic inflammation and improving hepatic function using aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) assay. Further study revealed that LM49 pretreatment induced the Kupffer cells (KCs) to M2 polarization and decreased the production of inflammatory cytokines. The action mechanism in RAW 264.7 macrophages showed that LM49 could induce the activation of JAK1/STAT6 signaling pathway and the inhibition of TLR-4/NF-kB axis. Morever, LM49 also upregulated the expression of SOCS1 and FLK-4, which can promote M2 polarization by cooperating with STAT6 and inhibit M1 formation by reducing JAK1/STAT1. Our results suggested that LM49 could protect against LPS-induced acute liver injury in mice via anti-inflammatory signaling pathways and subsequent induction of M2 Kupffer cells. The results provided the first experimental evidence of active halophenols for the anti-inflammatory therapy by targeting M2 macrophages.

Abstract
The decrease of neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) levels in the intestine is closely related to the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the functional relevance and underlying mechanistic basis of the effects of DA signaling on IBD remains unclear. Here, we observed that the DRD5 receptor is highly expressed in colonic macrophages, and the deficiency of DA-DRD5 signaling exacerbated experimental colitis. Moreover, DA-DRD5 signaling can inhibit M1 by negatively regulating NF-κB signaling but promote M2 macrophage polarization through activation of the CREB pathway, respectively. The deficiency of DRD5 signaling increased colonic M1 macrophages but reduced M2 cells during colitis. Additionally, the administration of a D1-like agonist that has a higher affinity to DRD5 can attenuate the colitogenic phenotype of mice. Collectively, these findings provide the first demonstration of DA-DRD5 signaling in colonic macrophages controlling the development of colitis by regulating M1/M2 macrophage polarization.

Abstract
Activated macrophages must carefully calibrate their inflammatory responses to balance efficient pathogen control with inflammation-mediated tissue damage, but the molecular underpinnings of this "balancing act" remain unclear. Using genetically engineered mouse models and primary macrophage cultures, we show that Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling induces the expression of the transcription factor Spic selectively in patrolling monocytes and tissue macrophages by a nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)-dependent mechanism. Functionally, Spic downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines and promotes iron efflux by regulating ferroportin expression in activated macrophages. Notably, interferon-gamma blocks Spic expression in a STAT1-dependent manner. High levels of interferon-gamma are indicative of ongoing infection, and in its absence, activated macrophages appear to engage a "default" Spic-dependent anti-inflammatory pathway. We also provide evidence for the engagement of this pathway in sterile inflammation. Taken together, our findings uncover a pathway wherein counter-regulation of Spic by NF-κB and STATs attune inflammatory responses and iron metabolism in macrophages.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke, which is the second highest cause of death and the leading cause of disability, represents ~71% of all strokes globally. Some studies have found that the key elements of the pathobiology of stroke is immunity and inflammation. Microglia are the first line of defense in the nervous system. After stroke, the activated microglia become a double-edged sword, with distinct phenotypic changes to the deleterious M1 types and neuroprotective M2 types. Therefore, ways to promote microglial polarization toward M2 phenotype after stroke have become the focus of attention in recent years. In this review, we discuss the process of microglial polarization, summarize the alternation of signaling pathways and epigenetic regulation that control microglial polarization in ischemic stroke, aiming to find the potential mechanisms by which microglia can be transformed into the M2 polarized phenotype.

Abstract
Enhancer activity drives cell differentiation and cell fate determination, but it remains unclear how enhancers cooperate during these processes. Here we investigate enhancer cooperation during transdifferentiation of human leukemia B-cells to macrophages. Putative enhancers are established by binding of the pioneer factor C/EBPα followed by chromatin opening and enhancer RNA (eRNA) synthesis from H3K4-monomethylated regions. Using eRNA synthesis as a proxy for enhancer activity, we find that most putative enhancers cooperate in an additive way to regulate transcription of assigned target genes. However, transcription from 136 target genes depends exponentially on the summed activity of its putative paired enhancers, indicating that these enhancers cooperate synergistically. The target genes are cell type-specific, suggesting that enhancer synergy can contribute to cell fate determination. Enhancer synergy appears to depend on cell type-specific transcription factors, and such interacting enhancers are not predicted from occupancy or accessibility data that are used to detect superenhancers.

Abstract
Introduction: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a systemic disease with immune abnormalities that can affect the entire digestive tract. A high percentage of patients with IBD are unresponsive to current pharmacological agents, hence the need exists for novel therapeutic approaches. There is compelling evidence that macrophage polarization plays a key role in the remission of IBD patients and that it could open up future treatment options for patients.Areas covered: This paper highlights the crucial role of macrophage polarization in IBD. The authors shed light on the phenotype and function of macrophages and potential drug targets for polarization regulation. Existing approaches for regulating macrophage polarization are discussed and potential solutions for safety concerns are considered. We performed a literature search on the IBD and macrophage polarization mainly published in PubMed January 2010-July 2020.Expert opinion: Evidence indicates that there are fewer M2 macrophages and a high proportion of M1 macrophages in the intestinal tissues of individuals who are non- responsive to treatment. Regulating macrophage polarization is a potential novel targeted option for IBD treatment. Improved mechanistic insights are required to uncover more precise and effective targets for skewing macrophages into a proper phenotype.

Abstract
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are the essential components of the tumor microenvironment. TAMs originate from blood monocytes and undergo pro- or anti-inflammatory polarization during their life span within the tumor. The balance between macrophage functional populations and the efficacy of their antitumor activities rely on the transcription factors such as STAT1, NF-κB, IRF, and others. These molecular tools are of primary importance, as they contribute to the tumor adaptations and resistance to radio- and chemotherapy and can become important biomarkers for theranostics. Herein, we describe the major transcriptional mechanisms specific for TAM, as well as how radio- and chemotherapy can impact gene transcription and functionality of macrophages, and what are the consequences of the TAM-tumor cooperation.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) leads to high mortality rate. We aimed to identify the key cytokines favoring TBI repair and found that patients with TBI with a better outcome robustly increased concentrations of macrophage colony-stimulating factor, interleukin-6, and transforming growth factor-β (termed M6T) in cerebrospinal fluid or plasma. Using TBI mice, we identified that M2-like macrophage, microglia, and endothelial cell were major sources to produce M6T. Together with the in vivo tracking of mCherry+ macrophages in zebrafish models, we confirmed that M6T treatment accelerated blood-borne macrophage infiltration and polarization toward a subset of tissue repair macrophages that expressed similar genes as microglia for neuroprotection, angiogenesis and cell migration. M6T therapy in TBI mice and zebrafish improved neurological function while blocking M6T-exacerbated brain injury. Considering low concentrations of M6T in some patients with poor prognostic, M6T treatment might repair TBI via generating a previously unidentified subset of tissue repair macrophages.

Das S, Mukherjee S, Ali N. Super enhancer-mediated transcription of miR146a-5p drives M2 polarization during Leishmania donovani infection. PLoS Pathog 2021; 17:e1009343. [PMID: 33630975 PMCID: PMC7943006 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1009343] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2020] [Revised: 03/09/2021] [Accepted: 01/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The outcome of Leishmania donovani infection depends upon the dynamic interchanges between M1 and M2 macrophages. Information of the involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) and epigenetic modifiers in regulating macrophage plasticity during L. donovani infection is still elusive. Differential expression analysis of polarization-regulating miRNAs, revealed significant enrichment of miR146a-5p during Leishmania donovani infection. A sustained enrichment of miR146a-5p was observed in both infected bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) and BALB/c mice organs. We found involvement of miR146a-5p in phagocytosis and survivability of parasites. Moreover, miR146a-5pgot enriched in interleukin 4- stimulated BMDMs, indicating its possible involvement in M2 polarization. Upon transfecting BMDMs with miRVANA anti-146a oligos, M2 markers (CCR7, YM-1, FIZZ-1, arginase-1, IL10 and IL4) and transcription factors (p-STAT6 and c/EBPβ) got depleted with concomitant augmentation of M1-polarizing transcription factors (p-STAT1, AP1 and IRF-1), miR146a target genes (TRAF6 and IRAK1), M1 cytokines (IL12 and TNFα), iNOS, nitric oxide, and nuclear translocation of phospho p-65 subunit. Neutralization of intracellular mature miR146a-5p pool in infected BALB/c mice lower organ parasite burden and expressions of M2 markers and IL10 with enrichment of M1 markers like iNOS and IL12. Additionally, we explored the novel role of super enhancer (SE), a cis-acting regulatory component, to enrich miR146a-5p expression during infection. Enhanced expression and nuclear retention of SE components like BET bromodomain 4 (BRD4) and p300 were found in infected BMDMs. Upon silencing BRD4, expressions of miR146a-5p and M2 markers were down regulated and TRAF6, IRAK1 and iNOS levels increased. STRING V.11 based predication and immune precipitation confirmed the strong interaction amongst BRD4, p300 and RNA pol II (RpbI). Chromatin immune precipitation studies suggested the recruitment of BRD4 at the enhancer loci of miR146a-5p gene during infection. Altogether, our findings revealed a novel role of BRD4/p300-depdendent super-enhancer in regulating miR146a expression during L. donovani infection which in turn mediates M2 polarization and immune-suppression. Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), caused by protozoan parasites Leishmania donovani, is the most severe form of leishmaniasis and is highly lethal if left untreated. Major obstacle for successful therapy of VL originates from the life-long immune-suppression triggered in the post kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) patients during infection. Identification of molecular principles behind such immune-suppression will add success in VL therapeutics. L. donovani hijacks the host macrophages and converts them from pro-inflammatory M1 to immune-suppressive M2 type, which allows successful infection establishment. Herein, we explored the indispensable role of miRNA-146a-5p in conversion of M1 to M2 type during infection. Both in vitro and in vivo miRNA silencing established miR146a-5p as an imperative negative regulator ofM1 polarization. Computational analysis as well as immune precipitation based experiments authenticated that L. donovani induces super enhancer complex mediated transcriptional upregulation of miR146a-5p. BET bromodomain protein 4 (BRD4) forms this SE complex along with p300 histone acetyl transferase and RNA pol II. Silencing of BRD4 significantly abrogated miR146a-5p mediated M2 polarization. In short, our current findings established a previously unrecognized role of BRD4-depdendent super enhancers in orchestrating persistent transcription of macrophage miR146a-5p which in turn promotes M2 polarization during L. donovani infection.

Abstract
Treatment and rehabilitation of spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major problem in clinical medicine. Modern medicine has achieved minimal progress in improving the functions of injured nerves in patients with SCI, mainly due to the complex pathophysiological changes that present after injury. Inflammatory reactions occurring after SCI are related to various functions of immune cells over time at different injury sites. Macrophages are important mediators of inflammatory reactions and are divided into two different subtypes (M1 and M2), which play important roles at different times after SCI. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are characterized by multi-differentiation and immunoregulatory potentials, and different treatments can have different effects on macrophage polarization. MSC transplantation has become a promising method for eliminating nerve injury caused by SCI and can help repair injured nerve tissues. Therapeutic effects are related to the induced formation of specific immune microenvironments, caused by influencing macrophage polarization, controlling the consequences of secondary injury after SCI, and assisting with function recovery. Herein, we review the mechanisms whereby MSCs affect macrophage-induced specific immune microenvironments, and discuss potential avenues of investigation for improving SCI treatment.

Abstract
The tumor vessel network has been investigated as a precursor of an inhospitable tumor microenvironment, including its repercussions in tumor perfusion, oxygenation, interstitial fluid pressure, pH, and immune response. Dysfunctional tumor vasculature leads to the extravasation of blood to the interstitial space, hindering proper perfusion and causing interstitial hypertension. Consequently, the inadequate delivery of oxygen and clearance of by-products of metabolism promote the development of intratumoral hypoxia and acidification, hampering the action of immune cells and resulting in more aggressive tumors. Thus, pharmacological strategies targeting tumor vasculature were developed, but the overall outcome was not satisfactory due to its transient nature and the higher risk of hypoxia and metastasis. Therefore, physical exercise emerged as a potential favorable modulator of tumor vasculature, improving intratumoral vascularization and perfusion. Indeed, it seems that regular exercise practice is associated with lasting tumor vascular maturity, reduced vascular resistance, and increased vascular conductance. Higher vascular conductance reduces intratumoral hypoxia and increases the accessibility of circulating immune cells to the tumor milieu, inhibiting tumor development and improving cancer treatment. The present paper describes the implications of abnormal vasculature on the tumor microenvironment and the underlying mechanisms promoted by regular physical exercise for the re-establishment of more physiological tumor vasculature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Galectin-1 plays a protective role against colitis by binding with polylactosamine structures on macrophages in β-1,4-galactosyltransferase I-deficient mice, but the precise function of galectin-1 remains unknown. In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory role of galectin-1 on macrophages to ameliorate ulcerative colitis in both animal model and human tissue samples. METHODS The expression of galectin-1 in colonic tissues of ulcerative colitis patients was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Cytokine production of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) cultured with galectin-1 was investigated. Galectin-1 binding capacity and polylactosamine expression in macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharides were evaluated by flow cytometry. BMDMs cultured with galectin-1 were transferred into Recombination activating gene (Rag) 2-/- mice, and the severity of the dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis model was investigated. Furthermore, RNA sequencing was performed to characterize macrophages treated with galectin-1. RESULTS In ulcerative colitis patients, tissue expression of galectin-1was decreased in inflamed mucosa compared with non-inflamed mucosa. Galectin-1 induced interleukin-10 production in BMDMs, and the interleukin-10 production was abrogated by lactose, which inhibits the interaction of oligosaccharide-galectin binding. Dextran sodium sulfate colitis was significantly ameliorated in Rag2-/- mice undergoing galectin-1-treated BMDM transfer compared with those undergoing vehicle-treated BMDM transfer. RNA sequencing revealed that treatment with galectin-1 increased the expression of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein β and CD163, but decreased the expression of CD80 on BMDMs. CONCLUSION Galectin-1, whose expression is decreased in the inflamed mucosa of ulcerative colitis patients, can ameliorate murine colitis by conferring oligosaccharide-dependent anti-inflammatory properties to macrophages.

Abstract
Here, we report that functional heterogeneity of macrophages in cancer could be determined by the nature of their precursors: monocytes (Mons) and monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (M-MDSCs). Macrophages that are differentiated from M-MDSCs, but not from Mons, are immune suppressive, with a genomic profile matching that of M-MDSCs. Immune-suppressive activity of M-MDSC-derived macrophages is dependent on the persistent expression of S100A9 protein in these cells. S100A9 also promotes M2 polarization of macrophages. Tissue-resident- and Mon-derived macrophages lack expression of this protein. S100A9-dependent immune-suppressive activity of macrophages involves transcription factor C/EBPβ. The presence of S100A9-positive macrophages in tumor tissues is associated with shorter survival in patients with head and neck cancer and poor response to PD-1 antibody treatment in patients with metastatic melanoma. Thus, this study reveals the pathway of the development of immune-suppressive macrophages and suggests an approach to their selective targeting.

Abstract
The persistent activation of intestinal mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) triggered by mucosal stress has been linked to deregulation of the gut immune response resulting in intestinal inflammation and cell death. The present study investigated the regulatory properties of food-derived mTORC1 modulators, curcumin, and piperine, toward the polarization of stimulated macrophages and the differentiation of monocytes at two mTORC1 activity levels (baseline and elevated). To that end, we created stable human THP-1 monocytes exhibiting normal or constitutively active mTORC1. Curcumin or its combination with piperine, but not piperine alone, suppressed mTORC1 kinase activity, curtailed lipopolysaccharide-mediated inflammatory response of THP-1 macrophages, and repressed macrophage activation by inhibiting signaling pathways involved in M1 (mTORC1) and M2 (mTORC2 and cAMP response element binding protein) polarization. The effects of piperine in the curcumin/piperine combination were modest overall, indicating it was curcumin that modulated differentiating monocytes into acquiring a M0 macrophage phenotype characterized by low inflammatory cytokine output.

Abstract
Recently, regeneration of CNS tracts has been partially accomplished by strategies of intrinsic neuronal growth stimulation. However, restoration of function is dependent on proper myelination of regenerating axons. Previous work from our group (Goulart et al., 2018) has shown an increase in oligodendrocyte staining in the regenerating optic nerve, 2 weeks after crush, in animals that were submitted to conditional deletion of pten gene in retinal ganglion cells and intravitreal injection of zymosan + cAMP. Thus, in the present study we aimed to investigate the maturation of the oligodendroglial lineage and myelination during the regeneration of the optic nerve under the same conditions of our previous work. We showed that the combined treatment promoted an increase of myelinated fibers within the optic nerve, 12 weeks after lesion, as well as an increase in Sox10 positive cells. Early-OPCs, positive to A2B5, were also increased at 12 weeks, whereas O4 positive, late-OPCs, were increased from 2 until 12 weeks after crush. At 12 weeks after crush, the optic nerve of Regenerating group presented more CC1 positive oligodendrocytes and increased MRF positive myelinating oligodendrocytes, culminating in CTB traced regenerating axons superimposed to MBP staining, suggestive of myelination. Thus, our work showed that conditional deletion of pten gene in retinal ganglion cells and intravitreal inflammatory stimuli + cAMP stimulate full maturation of the olidodendroglial lineage, from OPC proliferation and differentiation to myelination of regenerating CNS axons.

Abstract
Pretransplant graft inflammation could be involved in the worse prognosis of deceased donor (DD) kidney transplants. A2A adenosine receptor (A2AR) can stimulate anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages, leading to fibrosis if injury and inflammation persist. Pre-implantation biopsies of kidney donors (47 DD and 21 living donors (LD)) were used to analyze expression levels and activated intracellular pathways related to inflammatory and pro-fibrotic processes. A2AR expression and PKA pathway were enhanced in DD kidneys. A2AR gene expression correlated with TGF-β1 and other profibrotic markers, as well as CD163, C/EBPβ, and Col1A1, which are highly expressed in DD kidneys. TNF-α mRNA levels correlated with profibrotic and anti-inflammatory factors such as TGF-β1 and A2AR. Experiments with THP-1 cells point to the involvement of the TNF-α/NF-κB pathway in the up-regulation of A2AR, which induces the M2 phenotype increasing CD163 and TGF-β1 expression. In DD kidneys, the TNF-α/NF-κB pathway could be involved in the increase of A2AR expression, which would activate the PKA–CREB axis, inducing the macrophage M2 phenotype, TGF-β1 production, and ultimately, fibrosis. Thus, in inflamed DD kidneys, an increase in A2AR expression is associated with the onset of fibrosis, which may contribute to graft dysfunction and prognostic differences between DD and LD transplants.

Abstract
GSK3 are involved in different physical and pathological conditions and inflammatory regulated by macrophages contribute to significant mechanism. Infection stimuli may modulate GSK3 activity and influence host cell adaption, immune cells infiltration or cytokine expressions. To further address the role of GSK3 modulation in macrophages, the signal transduction of three major organs challenged by endotoxin, virus and genetic inherited factors are briefly introduced (lung injury, myocarditis and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease). As a result of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory functions of GSK3 in different microenvironments and stages of macrophages (M1/M2), the rational resolution should be considered by adequately GSK3.

Abstract
Radiation esophagitis, the most common acute adverse effect of radiation therapy, leads to unwanted consequences including discomfort, pain, an even death. However, no direct cure exists for patients suffering from this condition, with the harmful effect of ingestion and acid reflux on the damaged esophageal mucosa remaining an unresolved problem. Through the delivery of the hydrogel with stent platform, we aimed to evaluate the regenerative capacity of a tissue-specific decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) hydrogel on damaged tissues. For this, an esophagus-derived dECM (EdECM) was developed and shown to have superior biofunctionality and rheological properties, as well as physical stability, potentially providing a better microenvironment for tissue development. An EdECM hydrogel-loaded stent was sequentially fabricated using a rotating rod combined 3D printing system that showed structural stability and protected a loaded hydrogel during delivery. Finally, following stent implantation, the therapeutic effect of EdECM was examined in a radiation esophagitis rat model. Our findings demonstrate that EdECM hydrogel delivery via a stent platform can rapidly resolve an inflammatory response, thus promoting a pro-regenerative microenvironment. The results suggest a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of radiation esophagitis.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been recognized for their regenerative and anti-inflammatory capacity which makes them very attractive to cell therapy, especially those ones to treat inflammatory and autoimmune disease. Two different immune-phenotypes have been described for MSCs depending on which Toll-like receptor (TLR) is activated. MSC1 is endowed with a pro-inflammatory phenotype following TLR4 activation with LPS. On the other hand, anti-inflammatory MSC2 is induced by the activation of TLR3 with Poly(I:C). High immunoplasticity of MSCs is a matter of concern in cell-based therapies. In this study, we investigated whether a single stimulus can induce both types of MSCs through a differential activation of TLR4 with LPS. Methods MSCs were activated with LPS following a short exposure of 1-h (MSCs-LPS1h) or long-time exposure for 48 h (MSCs-LPS48h), and then, we evaluated the biological response in vitro, the immunosuppressive capacity of MSCs in vitro, and the therapeutic potential of MSCs in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mouse model. Results Our results showed that 1-h LPS exposure induced a MSC1 phenotype. Indeed, MSCs-LPS1h expressed low levels of NO/iNOS and decreased immunosuppressive capacity in vitro without therapeutic effect in the EAE model. In contrast, MSCs-LPS48h achieved a MSC2-like phenotype with significant increase in the immunosuppressive capacity on T cell proliferation in vitro, together with an improved in the therapeutic effect and higher Treg, compared to unstimulated MSCs. Furthermore, we determine through the MSCs-TLR4KO that the expression of TLR4 receptor is essential for MSCs’ suppressive activity since TLR4 deletion was associated with a diminished suppressive effect in vitro and a loss of therapeutic effect in vivo. Conclusions We demonstrate that MSCs display a high immunoplasticity commanded by a single stimulus, where LPS exposure time regulated the MSC suppressive effect leading into either an enhanced or an impairment therapeutic activity. Our results underscore the importance of phenotype conversion probably related to the TLR4 expression and activation, in the design of future clinical protocols to treat patients with inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are "polarized" myeloid cells that effectively promote tumorigenesis by inhibiting antitumor immunity. How myeloid cells acquire the protumoral properties during tumorigenesis is poorly understood. We report here that the polarity protein TIPE2 (tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein 8-like 2) mediates the functional polarization of murine and human MDSCs by specifying their pro- and antitumoral properties. Tumor cells induced the expression of TIPE2 in Gr1+CD11b+ cells through reactive oxygen species (ROS). TIPE2 in turn increased the expression of protumoral mediators such as CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-β while inhibiting the expression of antitumoral mediators. Consequently, tumor growth in TIPE2-deficient mice was significantly diminished, and TIPE2-deficient MDSCs markedly inhibited tumor growth upon adoptive transfer. Pharmaceutical blockade of ROS inhibited TIPE2 expression in MDSCs and reduced tumor growth in mice. These findings indicate that TIPE2 plays a key role in the functional polarization of MDSCs and represents a new therapeutic target for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Macrophage is one of the important players in immune response which perform many different functions during tissue injury, repair, and regeneration. Studies using animal models of cardiovascular diseases have provided a clear picture describing the effect of macrophages and their phenotype during injury and regeneration of various vascular beds. Many data have been generated to demonstrate that macrophages secrete many important factors including cytokines and growth factors to regulate angiogenesis and arteriogenesis, acting directly or indirectly on the vascular cells. Different subsets of macrophages may participate at different stages of vascular repair. Recent findings also suggest a direct interaction between macrophages and other cell types during the generation and repair of vasculature. In this short review, we focused our discussion on how macrophages adapt to the surrounding microenvironment and their potential interaction with other cells, in the context of vascular repair supported by evidences mostly from studies using hindlimb ischemia as a model for studying post-ischemic vascular repair.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells controlling T cell activation. In humans, the diversity, ontogeny, and functional capabilities of DC subsets are not fully understood. Here, we identified circulating CD88-CD1c+CD163+ DCs (called DC3s) as immediate precursors of inflammatory CD88-CD14+CD1c+CD163+FcεRI+ DCs. DC3s develop via a specific pathway activated by GM-CSF, independent of cDC-restricted (CDP) and monocyte-restricted (cMoP) progenitors. Like classical DCs but unlike monocytes, DC3s drove activation of naive T cells. In vitro, DC3s displayed a distinctive ability to prime CD8+ T cells expressing a tissue homing signature and the epithelial homing alpha-E integrin (CD103) through transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling. In vivo, DC3s infiltrated luminal breast cancer primary tumors, and DC3 infiltration correlated positively with CD8+CD103+CD69+ tissue-resident memory T cells. Together, these findings define DC3s as a lineage of inflammatory DCs endowed with a strong potential to regulate tumor immunity.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus (HBV), a highly persistent pathogen causing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), takes full advantage of host machinery, presenting therapeutic targets. Here we aimed to identify novel druggable host cellular factors using the reporter HBV we have recently generated. In an RNAi screen of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), GPCR39 (GPR39) appeared as the top hit to facilitate HBV proliferation. Lentiviral overexpression of active GPR39 proteins and an agonist enhanced HBV replication and transcriptional activities of viral promoters, inducing the expression of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (CEBP)-β (CEBPB). Meanwhile, GPR39 was uncovered to activate the heat shock response, upregulating the expression of proviral heat shock proteins (HSPs). In addition, glioma-associated oncogene homologue signaling, a recently reported target of GPR39, was suggested to inhibit HBV replication and eventually suppress expression of CEBPB and HSPs. Thus, GPR39 provirally governed intracellular circuits simultaneously affecting the carcinopathogenetic gene functions. GPR39 and the regulated signaling networks would serve as antiviral targets, and strategies with selective inhibitors of GPR39 functions can develop host-targeted antiviral therapies preventing HCC.

Abstract
Ischemic brain injuries are common diseases with high morbidity, disability, and mortality rates, which have significant impacts on human health and life. Microglia are resident cells of the central nervous system (CNS). The inflammatory responses mediated by microglia play an important role in the occurrence and development of ischemic brain injuries. This article summarizes the activation, polarization, depletion, and repopulation of microglia after ischemic brain injuries, proposing new treatment strategies for such injuries through the modulation of microglial function.

Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is the most economically important infectious disease of pigs worldwide. Our previous study revealed that Tongcheng (TC) pigs display higher resistance to PRRS than Largewhite (LW) pigs, but the genetic mechanism remains unknown. Here, we first confirmed that CXCL14 was downregulated in lungs and porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs) responding to PRRS virus (PRRSV) infection, but the decline in LW pigs was more obvious than that in TC pigs. Then, we found that the overexpression of CXCL14 activated type-I interferon (IFN-I) signaling by upregulating interferon beta (IFNB), which plays a major role in the antiviral effect. To further decipher the mechanism underlying its differential expression, we characterized the core promoter of CXCL14 as being located from -145 to 276 bp of the transcription start site (TSS) and identified two main haplotypes that displayed significant differential transcriptional activities. We further identified two coupled point mutations that altered the binding status of CEBPB and were responsible for the differential expression in TC and LW pigs. The regulatory effect of CEBPB on CXCL14 was further confirmed by RNA interference (RNAi) and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), providing crucial clues for deciphering the mechanism of CXCL14 downregulation in unusual conditions. The present study revealed the potential antiviral effect of CXCL14, occurring via activation of interferon signaling, and suggested that CXCL14 contributes to the PRRS resistance of TC pigs.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents the most common acute leukemia among adults. Despite recent progress in diagnosis and treatment, long-term outcome remains unsatisfactory. The success of allogeneic stem cell transplantation underscores the immunoresponsive nature of AML, creating the basis for further exploiting immunotherapies. However, emerging evidence suggests that AML, similar to other malignant entities, employs a variety of mechanisms to evade immunosurveillance. In light of this, T-cell inhibitory myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are gaining interest as key facilitators of immunoescape. Accumulation of CD14+HLA-DRlow monocytic MDSCs has been described in newly diagnosed AML patients, and deciphering the underlying mechanisms could help to improve anti-AML immunity. Here, we report that conventional monocytes readily take-up AML-derived extracellular vesicles (EV) and subsequently undergo MDSC differentiation. They acquired an CD14+HLA-DRlow phenotype, expressed the immunomodulatory indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase, and upregulated expression of genes characteristic for MDSCs, such as S100A8/9 and cEBPβ. The Akt/mTOR pathway played a critical role in the AML-EV-induced phenotypical and functional transition of monocytes. Generated MDSCs displayed a glycolytic switch, which rendered them more susceptible toward glycolytic inhibitors. Furthermore, palmitoylated proteins on the AML-EV surface activated Toll-like receptor 2 as the initiating event of Akt/mTOR-dependent induction of MDSC. Therefore, targeting protein palmitoylation in AML blasts could block MDSC accumulation to improve immune responses. SIGNIFICANCE: These findings indicate that targeting protein palmitoylation in AML could interfere with the leukemogenic potential and block MDSC accumulation to improve immunity.

Abstract
Growth hormone (GH), a pleiotropic hormone secreted by the pituitary gland, regulates immune and inflammatory responses. In this study, we show that GH regulates the phenotypic and functional plasticity of macrophages both in vitro and in vivo. Specifically, GH treatment of GM-CSF-primed monocyte-derived macrophages promotes a significant enrichment of anti-inflammatory genes and dampens the proinflammatory cytokine profile through PI3K-mediated downregulation of activin A and upregulation of MAFB, a critical transcription factor for anti-inflammatory polarization of human macrophages. These in vitro data correlate with improved remission of inflammation and mucosal repair during recovery in the acute dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis model in GH-overexpressing mice. In this model, in addition to the GH-mediated effects on other immune cells, we observed that macrophages from inflamed gut acquire an anti-inflammatory/reparative profile. Overall, these data indicate that GH reprograms inflammatory macrophages to an anti-inflammatory phenotype and improves resolution during pathologic inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME) is an emerging life-threatening tick-borne disease caused by the obligate intracellular bacterium Ehrlichia chaffeensis. HME is often presented as a nonspecific flu-like illness characterized by presence of fever, headache, malaise, and myalgia. However, in some cases the disease can evolve to a severe form, which is commonly marked by acute liver injury followed by multi-organ failure and toxic shock-like syndrome [1-3]. Macrophages and monocytes are the major target cells for Ehrlichia, although this bacterium can infect other cell types such as hepatocytes and endothelial cells [4]. In this article, we discuss how macrophages polarization to M1 or M2 phenotypes dictate the severity of ehrlichiosis and the outcome of infection. We will also discuss the potential mechanisms that regulate such polarization.

Abstract
CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBPs) constitute a family of transcription factors composed of six members that are critical for normal cellular differentiation in a variety of tissues. They promote the expression of genes through interaction with their promoters. Moreover, they have a key role in regulating cellular proliferation through interaction with cell cycle proteins. C/EBPs are considered to be tumor suppressor factors due to their ability to arrest cell growth (contributing to the terminal differentiation of several cell types) and for their role in cellular response to DNA damage, nutrient deprivation, hypoxia, and genotoxic agents. However, C/EBPs can elicit completely opposite effects on cell proliferation and cancer development and they have been described as both tumor promoters and tumor suppressors. This "Janus" role of C/EBPs depends on different factors, such as the type of tumor, the isoform/s expressed in cells, the type of dimerization (homo- or heterodimerization), the presence of inhibitory elements, and the ability to inhibit the expression of other tumor suppressors. In this review, we discuss the implication of the C/EBPs family in cancer, focusing on the molecular aspects that make these transcription factors tumor promoters or tumor suppressors.

YAP Aggravates Inflammatory Bowel Disease by Regulating M1/M2 Macrophage Polarization and Gut Microbial Homeostasis. Cell Rep 2020; 27:1176-1189.e5.

Abstract
Inflammation, epithelial cell regeneration, macrophage polarization, and gut microbial homeostasis are critical for the pathological processes associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). YAP (Yes-associated protein) is a key component of the Hippo pathway and was recently suggested to promote epithelial cell regeneration for IBD recovery. However, it is unclear how YAP regulates macrophage polarization, inflammation, and gut microbial homeostasis. Although YAP has been shown to promote epithelial regeneration and alleviate IBD, here we show that YAP in macrophages aggravates IBD, accompanied by the production of antimicrobial peptides and changes in gut microbiota. YAP impairs interleukin-4 (IL-4)/IL-13-induced M2 macrophage polarization while promoting lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/interferon γ (IFN-γ)-triggered M1 macrophage activation for IL-6 production. In addition, YAP expression is differently regulated during the induction of M2 versus M1 macrophages. This study suggests that fully understanding the multiple functions of YAP in different cell types is crucial for IBD therapy.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease whose etiology is multifactorial. The contributions of cellular metabolism to psoriasis are unclear. Here, we report that interleukin-17 (IL-17) downregulated Protein Phosphatase 6 (PP6) in psoriatic keratinocytes, causing phosphorylation and activation of the transcription factor C/EBP-β and subsequent generation of arginase-1. Mice lacking Pp6 in keratinocytes were predisposed to psoriasis-like skin inflammation. Accumulation of arginase-1 in Pp6-deficient keratinocytes drove polyamine production from the urea cycle. Polyamines protected self-RNA released by psoriatic keratinocytes from degradation and facilitated the endocytosis of self-RNA by myeloid dendritic cells to promote toll-like receptor-7 (TLR7)-dependent RNA sensing and IL-6 production. An arginase inhibitor improved skin inflammation in murine and non-human primate models of psoriasis. Our findings suggest that urea cycle hyperreactivity and excessive polyamine generation in psoriatic keratinocytes promote self-RNA sensation and PP6 deregulation in keratinocytes is a pivotal event that amplifies the inflammatory circuits in psoriasis.

Abstract
Macrophages are among the first cells to respond to infection and disease. While microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the process of monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation in mammals, less is known in teleost fish. Here, Atlantic salmon head kidney leukocytes (HKLs) were used to study the expression of miRNAs in response to in vitro culture. The morphological analysis of cultures showed predominantly monocyte-like cells on Day 1 and macrophage-like cells on Day 5, suggesting that the HKLs had differentiated from monocytes to macrophages. Day 5 HKLs also contained a higher percentage of phagocytic cells. Small RNA sequencing and qPCR analysis were applied to examine the miRNA diversity and expression. There were 370 known mature Atlantic salmon miRNAs in HKLs. Twenty-two miRNAs (15 families) were downregulated while 44 miRNAs (25 families) were upregulated on Day 5 vs. Day 1. Mammalian orthologs of many of the differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs are known to regulate macrophage activation and differentiation, while the teleost-specific miR-2188, miR-462 and miR-731 were also DE and are associated with immune responses in fish. In silico predictions identified several putative target genes of qPCR-validated miRNAs associated with vertebrate macrophage differentiation. This study identified Atlantic salmon miRNAs likely to influence macrophage differentiation, providing important knowledge for future functional studies.

Regen Ther 2020; 14:262-270. [PMID: 32455156 PMCID: PMC7232040 DOI: 10.1016/j.reth.2020.03.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2019] [Revised: 02/24/2020] [Accepted: 03/25/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Researchers have investigated the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. However, the mechanisms through which PRP affects tissue repair remain unclear. We hypothesize that PRP promotes tissue repair through not only via direct manner on the local cells but also via indirect manner that encourage the recruitment of reparative cells such as macrophages (MPs), and it depends on the quality of PRP including the concentration of leukocytes. The aim of this study is to elucidate the actions of the MPs in the mechanisms of PRP on tissue repair processes. METHODS Leukocyte-rich (LR) PRP and leukocyte-poor (LP) PRP were prepared from 12-week-old C57BL6 mice. Full-thickness defects were created in central third of patellar tendons of 12-week-old C57BL/6 mice for histologic analysis (n = 36) and 12-week-old B6.129P-Cx3cr1tm1Litt/J mice for flow cytometry analysis (n = 108). B6.129P-Cx3cr1tm1Litt/J mouse is GFP-positive only in the MP-linage cells thus MPs recruited to the repair tissue can be distinguished whether it had originated from administrated PRP or recruited from host mouse. Mice were treated either with LR-PRP, LP-PRP, or without PRP (control group). Histological analyses were performed to evaluate the tendon healing using Bonar score as semi-quantitative histological scoring system. Flow cytometric analyses were performed to count the number of GFP-positive cells around repaired patellar tendon. In addition, the ratio of pro-inflammatory MPs (M1)/anti-inflammatory MPs (M2) were analyzed in those GFP-positive cells. The statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism ver6. P values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. RESULTS In LR-PRP and LP-PRP groups, all variables in Bonar score such as cell morphology, cellularity, vascularity, and collagen arrangement were significantly improved in comparison with control group, indicating that both PRPs promote tendon hearing. LP-PRP promoted the tendon healing significantly faster than that of LR-PRP on postoperative day 28 (P < 0.001). LR-PRP enhanced angiogenesis (vascularity: P < 0.001), while LP-PRP improved the collagen arrangement on postoperative day 28 (collagen arrangement: P < 0.01). In other variables such as cell morphology and cellularity score, there were no significant differences between LR-PRP and LP-PRP groups in any time points. Flow cytometric findings showed that recruitment of GFP-positive MPs in the LR and LP-PRP groups were significantly increased from postoperative day 4 compared with control group without PRP treatment (P < 0.001). The majority of GFP-positive MPs were M1 at the initiation of tendon healing phase, and M2 were gradually increased from postoperative day 4. The number of M1 was significantly high both in the LP- and LR-PRP groups (day 4 and 7, p < 0.001), but the number of M2 was high only in the LP-PRP group (day 7 and 14, P < 0.05) when it compared with control group. The M1/M2 ratio on postoperative day 7 was significantly lower in the LP-PRP group than those in the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that PRP enhanced the tendon healing and promoted the recruitment of MPs to the injured tissue. The subtypes of MPs were different depends on the types of PRPs, suggesting that leukocytes in PRP influence the effect of PRP therapy.

J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol 2020; 199:105608.

Abstract
Ovarian granulosa cells, known to be endocrine cells, have well active TLR4-/NFKB signalling mediated innate immune capabilities. We have previously shown that endotoxin not only transiently regulates proinflammatory cytokines but cells become tolerant on repeated exposure to endotoxin and impaired granulosa cells functions, which includes downregulation of CYP19A1 gene. To understand further endotoxin tolerance and impaired granulosa cells function, genome-wide transcriptomic profiling in endotoxin tolerant buffalo granulosa cells (bGCs) identified miR-326 as upregulated amongst top 5 DE miRNAs [unpublished data] and qPCR validation confirmed its upregulation during endotoxin tolerance. In silico analyses showed that miR-326 targets CYP19A1 gene. Therefore, in the present study, we elucidated the role of miR-326 in buffalo granulosa cells (bGCs). We first validated its expression vis-à-vis CYP19A1 gene expression in bGCs, both in vivo and in vitro. Results showed an inverse relationship between miR-326 and CYP19A1 expression. Similarly, transcription factors, known to be involved in CYP19A1 gene regulation, CREB and C/EBP-β expression was also found to be decreased in granulosa cells mimicking pre-ovulatory follicular stage. Further, miR-326 mimic was transfected to bGCs in culture and expression of CYP19A1 and CREB & C/EBP-β and genes encoding other enzymes of steroidogenesis pathway were also analyzed. The present study results showed that miR-326 significantly inhibits the expression of CYP19A1 gene while expression of transcription factors CREB and C/EBP-β was found to be upregulated. The expression of STAR and CYP11A1 was found to be unaffected. To elucidate the molecular mechanism of miR-326 mediated downregulation of CYP19A1, binding analyses of RNA polymerase II and CEBP-β to CYP19A1 gene promoter II was analyzed. The result also showed decreased binding of RNA polymerase II with increased binding of CEBP-β to CYP19A1 gene promoter II in bGCs, transfected with miR-326 as compared to control. In summary, our results suggest that miR-326 upregulate CREB and CREB may activate C/EBP-β and later inhibited the transcription of CYP19A1 and decreased estradiol-17b production. The miR-326 mediated down-regulation of the CYP19A1 gene involving CREB-C/EBP-β can be exploited in developing strategies to attenuate endotoxin-mediated tolerance induced impaired granulosa cells function to ensure proper fertility in females.

Abstract
Inflammation is usually considered as harmful; however, it is also necessary for tissue recovery after injury. Macrophages exert immune and nonimmune functions throughout this process. During skeletal muscle regeneration, they mount an inflammatory response while exerting trophic roles on muscle and mesenchymal stem cells. Proinflammatory macrophages shift to being anti-inflammatory, triggering the resolution of inflammation. Studies have highlighted that during this shift, a crosstalk ensues, integrating cues for resolution, efferocytosis, cellular metabolism, and signaling pathways. During the restorative phase, macrophages dampen inflammation while promoting stem cell differentiation, angiogenesis, and matrix remodeling. Since blunting the inflammatory phase can be detrimental for muscle regeneration, we suggest that rather than fighting inflammation, it should be allowed to operate and resolve, thus allowing for tissue recovery.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection, remains a major global health emergency. It is estimated that one third of global population are affected, predominantly with latent granuloma form of the disease. Mtb co-evolved with humans, for its obligatory intra-macrophage phagosome habitat and slow replication, balanced against unique mycobacterial innate immunity, which appears to be highly complex. TB is transmitted via cough aerosol Mtb inhalation. Bovine TB attenuated Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) live vaccine has been in practice for protection of young children from severe disseminated Mtb infection, but not sufficiently for their lungs, as obtained by trials in TB endemic community. To augment BCG vaccine-driven innate and adaptive immunity for neonates and better protection against adult pulmonary TB, a number of BCG pre-vaccination based, subset vaccine candidates have been tested via animal preclinical, followed by safe clinical trials. BCG also enhances innate macrophage trained immunity and memory, through primordial intracellular Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 7 and 9, which recognise distinct mycobacterial molecular pattern signature. This signature is transmitted by TLR signalling via nuclear factor-κB, for activating innate immune transcription and expression of gene profiling in a mycobacterial signature-specific manner. These are epigenetically imprinted in reprogramming of distinct chromatin areas for innate immune memory, to be recalled following lung reinfection. Unique TB innate immunity and its trained memory are considered independent from adaptive immune B and T cells. On the other hand, adaptive immunity is crucial in Mtb containment in granulomatous latency, supported by innate immune cell infiltration. In nearly 5-10 % of susceptible people, latent TB may be activated due to immune evasion by Mtb from intracellular phagosome within macrophage, perpetrating TB. However, BCG and new recombinant BCG vaccines have the capacity, as indicated in pre- and clinical trials, to overcome such Mtb evasion. Various strategies include pro-inflammatory-bactericidal type 1 polarisation (M1) phenotype of the infected macrophage, involving thrombospondin-TLR pathway. Saprophytic M. smegmatis-based recombinant vaccines are also promising candidates against TB. BCG vaccination of neonates/infants in TB endemic countries also reduced their pneumonia caused by various microbes independent of TB immunity. Here, we discuss host immune response against Mtb, its immune evasion strategies, and the important role innate immunity plays in the development of protection against TB.

Abstract
Myeloid cells are critical to the development of fibrosis following muscle injury; however, the mechanism of their role in fibrosis formation remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that myeloid cell-derived TGF-β1 signaling is increased in a profibrotic ischemia reperfusion and cardiotoxin muscle injury model. We found that myeloid-specific deletion of Tgfb1 abrogates the fibrotic response in this injury model and reduces fibro/adipogenic progenitor cell proliferation while simultaneously enhancing muscle regeneration, which is abrogated by adaptive transfer of normal macrophages. Similarly, a murine TGFBRII-Fc ligand trap administered after injury significantly reduced muscle fibrosis and improved muscle regeneration. This study ultimately demonstrates that infiltrating myeloid cell TGF-β1 is responsible for the development of traumatic muscle fibrosis, and its blockade offers a promising therapeutic target for preventing muscle fibrosis after ischemic injury.
