Abstract
Liver regeneration following resection is a complex process relying on coordinated pathways and cell types in the remnant organ. Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells (MDSCs) have a role in liver regeneration-related angiogenesis but other roles they may play in this process remain to be elucidated. In this study, we sought to examine the effect of G-MDSCs on hepatocytes proliferation and immune modulation during liver regeneration. Global gene expression profiling of regenerating hepatocytes in mice with CD11b+Ly6G+ MDSCs (G-MDSCs) depletion revealed disrupted transcriptional progression from day one to day two after major liver resection. Key genes and pathways related to hepatocyte proliferation and immune response were differentially expressed upon MDSC depletion. Hepatocytes cellularity increased when co-cultured with G-MDSCs, or treated with amphiregulin, which G-MDSCs upregulate during regeneration. Cytometry by time-of-flight (CyTOF) analysis of the intra-liver immune milieu upon MDSC depletion during regeneration demonstrated increased natural killer cell proportions, alongside changes in other immune cell populations. Taken together, these results provide evidence that MDSCs contribute to early liver regeneration by promoting hepatocyte proliferation and modulating the intra-liver immune response, and illuminate the multifaceted role of MDSCs in liver regeneration.
期刊介绍:
Genes & Immunity emphasizes studies investigating how genetic, genomic and functional variations affect immune cells and the immune system, and associated processes in the regulation of health and disease. It further highlights articles on the transcriptional and posttranslational control of gene products involved in signaling pathways regulating immune cells, and protective and destructive immune responses.
