Abstract
Asthma affects 25 million Americans, and recent advances in treatment are effective for only a portion of severe asthma patients. TREM-1, an innate receptor that canonically amplifies inflammatory signaling in neutrophils and monocytes, plays a central role in regulating lung inflammation. It is unknown how TREM-1 contributes to allergic asthma pathology. Utilizing a murine model of asthma, flow cytometry revealed TREM-1+ eosinophils in the lung tissue and airway during allergic airway inflammation. TREM-1 expression was restricted to recruited, inflammatory eosinophils. Expression was induced on bone marrow-derived eosinophils by incubation with interleukin 33, lipopolysaccharide, or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Compared to TREM-1- airway eosinophils, TREM-1+ eosinophils were enriched for proinflammatory gene sets, including migration, respiratory burst, and cytokine production. Unexpectedly, eosinophil-specific ablation of TREM-1 exacerbated airway interleukin (IL) 5 production, airway MUC5AC production, and lung tissue eosinophil accumulation. Further investigation of transcriptional data revealed apoptosis and superoxide generation-related gene sets were enriched in TREM-1+ eosinophils. Consistent with these findings, annexin V and caspase-3/7 staining demonstrated higher rates of apoptosis among TREM-1+ eosinophils compared to TREM-1- eosinophils in the inflammatory airway. In vitro, Trem1/3-/- bone marrow-derived eosinophils consumed less oxygen than wild-type in response to phorbol myristate acetate, suggesting that TREM-1 promotes superoxide generation in eosinophils. These data reveal protein-level expression of TREM-1 by eosinophils, define a population of TREM-1+ inflammatory eosinophils, and demonstrate that eosinophil TREM-1 restricts key features of type 2 lung inflammation.
期刊介绍:
JLB is a peer-reviewed, academic journal published by the Society for Leukocyte Biology for its members and the community of immunobiologists. The journal publishes papers devoted to the exploration of the cellular and molecular biology of granulocytes, mononuclear phagocytes, lymphocytes, NK cells, and other cells involved in host physiology and defense/resistance against disease. Since all cells in the body can directly or indirectly contribute to the maintenance of the integrity of the organism and restoration of homeostasis through repair, JLB also considers articles involving epithelial, endothelial, fibroblastic, neural, and other somatic cell types participating in host defense. Studies covering pathophysiology, cell development, differentiation and trafficking; fundamental, translational and clinical immunology, inflammation, extracellular mediators and effector molecules; receptors, signal transduction and genes are considered relevant. Research articles and reviews that provide a novel understanding in any of these fields are given priority as well as technical advances related to leukocyte research methods.
