Type I interferon governs immunometabolic checkpoints that coordinate inflammation during Staphylococcal infection. Cell Rep 2024; 43:114607. [PMID: 39126652 DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2024.114607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Macrophage metabolic plasticity is central to inflammatory programming, yet mechanisms of coordinating metabolic and inflammatory programs during infection are poorly defined. Here, we show that type I interferon (IFN) temporally guides metabolic control of inflammation during methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection. We find that staggered Toll-like receptor and type I IFN signaling in macrophages permit a transient energetic state of combined oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and aerobic glycolysis followed by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)-mediated OXPHOS disruption. This disruption promotes type I IFN, suppressing other pro-inflammatory cytokines, notably interleukin-1β. Upon infection, iNOS expression peaks at 24 h, followed by lactate-driven Nos2 repression via histone lactylation. Type I IFN pre-conditioning prolongs infection-induced iNOS expression, amplifying type I IFN. Cutaneous MRSA infection in mice constitutively expressing epidermal type I IFN results in elevated iNOS levels, impaired wound healing, vasculopathy, and lung infection. Thus, kinetically regulated type I IFN signaling coordinates immunometabolic checkpoints that control infection-induced inflammation.

Abstract
Lactylation is a process where lactate, a cellular metabolism byproduct, is added to proteins, altering their functions. In the realm of macrophage activation, lactylation impacts inflammatory response and immune regulation. Understanding the effects of lactylation on macrophage activation is vital in lung diseases, as abnormal activation and function are pivotal in conditions like pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, COPD, and lung cancer. This review explores the concept of lactylation, its regulation of macrophage activation, and recent research progress in lung diseases. It offers new insights into lung disease pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Histone lysine lactylation (Kla) has emerged as a distinct epigenetic modification that differs markedly from established acylation modifications through the unique addition of a lactyl group to a lysine residue. Such modifications not only alter nucleosome structure but also significantly impact chromatin dynamics and gene expression, thus playing a crucial role in cellular metabolism, inflammatory responses, and embryonic development. The association of histone Kla with various metabolic processes, particularly glycolysis and glutamine metabolism, underscores its pivotal role in metabolic reprogramming, including in cancerous tissues, where it contributes to tumorigenesis, immune evasion, and angiogenesis. In addition, histone Kla is involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases, particularly several cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. The identification of histone Kla opens new avenues for therapeutic interventions targeting specific Kla sites. In this review, we summarize the differences between histone Kla modifications and other acylation modifications, discuss the mechanisms and roles of histone Kla in disease, and conclude by describing existing drugs and potential targets. This study provides new insights into the mechanisms linking histone Kla to diseases and into the discovery of new drugs and targets.

Abstract
It is commonly known that different macrophage phenotypes play specific roles in different pathophysiological processes. In recent years, many studies have linked the phenotypes of macrophages to their characteristics in different metabolic pathways, suggesting that macrophages can perform different functions through metabolic reprogramming. It is now gradually recognized that lactate, previously overlooked as a byproduct of glycolytic metabolism, acts as a signaling molecule in regulating multiple biological processes, including immunological responses and metabolism. Recently, lactate has been found to mediate epigenetic changes in macrophages through a newfound lactylation modification, thereby regulating their phenotypic transformation. This novel finding highlights the significant role of lactate metabolism in macrophage function. In this review, we summarize the features of relevant metabolic reprogramming in macrophages and the role of lactate metabolism therein. We also review the progress of research on the regulation of macrophage metabolic reprogramming by lactylation through epigenetic mechanisms.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is recognized as the primary cause of mortality and morbidity on a global scale, and developing a clear treatment is an important tool for improving it. Cardiometabolic disorder (CMD) is a syndrome resulting from the combination of cardiovascular, endocrine, pro-thrombotic, and inflammatory health hazards. Due to their complex pathological mechanisms, there is a lack of effective diagnostic and treatment methods for cardiac metabolic disorders. Lactylation is a type of post-translational modification (PTM) that plays a regulatory role in various cellular physiological processes by inducing changes in the spatial conformation of proteins. Numerous studies have reported that lactylation modification plays a crucial role in post-translational modifications and is closely related to cardiac metabolic diseases. This article discusses the molecular biology of lactylation modifications and outlines the roles and mechanisms of lactylation modifications in cardiometabolic disorders, offering valuable insights for the diagnosis and treatment of such conditions.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence over the past decades has revealed an intricate relationship between dysregulation of cellular metabolism and the progression of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. However, an integrated understanding of dysregulated cellular metabolism in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and its potential value as a therapeutic target is missing. In this Review, we (1) summarize recent advances concerning the role of metabolic dysregulation during atherosclerosis progression in lesional cells, including endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, macrophages and T cells; (2) explore the complexity of metabolic cross-talk between these lesional cells; (3) highlight emerging technologies that promise to illuminate unknown aspects of metabolism in atherosclerosis; and (4) suggest strategies for targeting these underexplored metabolic alterations to mitigate atherosclerosis progression and stabilize rupture-prone atheromas with a potential new generation of cardiovascular therapeutics.

Abstract
Heightened lactate production in cancer cells has been linked to various cellular mechanisms such as angiogenesis, hypoxia, macrophage polarisation and T-cell dysfunction. The lactate-induced lactylation of histone lysine residues is noteworthy, as it functions as an epigenetic modification that directly augments gene transcription from chromatin. This epigenetic modification originating from lactate effectively fosters a reliance on transcription, thereby expediting tumour progression and development. Herein, this review explores the correlation between histone lactylation and cancer characteristics, revealing histone lactylation as an innovative epigenetic process that enhances the vulnerability of cells to malignancy. Moreover, it is imperative to acknowledge the paramount importance of acknowledging innovative therapeutic methodologies for proficiently managing cancer by precisely targeting lactate signalling. This comprehensive review illuminates a crucial yet inadequately investigated aspect of histone lactylation, providing valuable insights into its clinical ramifications and prospective therapeutic interventions centred on lactylation.

Abstract
This article reports the development of a microscopy imaging system that gives feasibility for studying spatio-temporal dynamics of physiological activities of alive biological specimens (over entire volume not only for a particular section, i.e., in 4D). The imaging technology facilitates to obtain two image frames of a section of the larger specimen ([Formula: see text]) with different FOVs at different resolutions or magnifications simultaneously in real-time (in addition to recovery of 3D (volume) information). Again, this imaging system addresses the longstanding challenges of housing multiple light sources (6 at the maximum till date) in microscopy (in general) and light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) (in particular), by using a tuneable pulsed laser source (with an operating wavelength in the range [Formula: see text]-670 nm) in contrast to the conventional CW laser source being adopted for inducing photo-excitation of tagged fluorophores. In the present study, we employ four wavelengths ([Formula: see text] 488 nm, 585 nm, 590 nm, and 594 nm). Our study also demonstrates quantitative characterization of spatio-temporal dynamics (velocity-both amplitude and direction) of organelles (mitochondria) and their mutual correlationships. Mitochondria close to the nucleus (or in clustered cells) are observed to possess a lower degree of freedom in comparison to that at the cellular periphery (or isolated cells). In addition, the study demonstrates real-time observation and recording of the development and growth of all tracheal branches during the entire period ([Formula: see text] min) of embryonic development (Drosophila). The experimental results-with experiments being conducted in various and diversified biological specimens (Drosophila melanogaster, mouse embryo, and HeLa cells)-demonstrate that the study is of great scientific impact both from the aspects of technology and biological sciences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Innate immune cells play a crucial role in responding to microbial infections, but their improper activation can also drive inflammatory disease. For this reason, their activation state is governed by a multitude of factors, including the metabolic state of the cell and, more specifically, the individual metabolites which accumulate intracellularly and extracellularly. This relationship is bidirectional, as innate immune cell activation by pathogen-associated molecular patterns causes critical changes in cellular metabolism. SUMMARY In this review, we describe the emergence of various "immunometabolites." We outline the general characteristics of these immunometabolites, the conditions under which they accumulate, and their subsequent impact on immune cells. We delve into well-studied metabolites of recent years, such as succinate and itaconate, as well as newly emerging immunometabolites, such as methylglyoxal. KEY MESSAGES We hope that this review may be used as a framework for further studies dissecting the mechanisms by which immunometabolites regulate the immune system and provide an outlook to harnessing these mechanisms in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.
