These roles have been assumed to be due to its canonical mode of action as an inducible transcription factor downstream of multiple cytokines, although alternative non-canonical functional modalities have also been described for STAT3. To further understand the roles of STAT3 gained from lineage-specific mouse knockouts, CRISPR/Cas9 was used to generate mutants of the conserved zebrafish Stat3 protein: a loss of function knockout (KO) mutant and a mutant lacking C-terminal sequences including the transactivation domain (ΔTAD). Analysis of the KO mutant identified conserved roles for Stat3 within hematopoietic stem cells impacting the development of all lineages throughout primitive and early definitive hematopoiesis, with altered immune cell populations in juveniles. The Stat3 KO mutant was unable to respond to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and also exhibited significantly diminished neutrophil migration that correlated with abrogation of the Cxcl8b/Cxcr2 pathway. Many of these phenotypes were not shared by the Stat3 ΔTAD mutant. Indeed, only neutrophil and macrophage development were disrupted in these mutants with neutrophil migration actually increased, while responsiveness to LPS and G-CSF was maintained. This suggests that Stat3 participates in innate immune cell development and function through both canonical and non-canonical modalities, providing additional insights for relevant diseases.","PeriodicalId":16113,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Innate Immunity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140681473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Type I interferon (IFN-αβ) is a central mediator in the induction of hypersensitivity and is strongly expressed in splenic conventional dendritic cells (cDC) and marginal zone macrophages (MZM) when mice are infected with adenovirus. This study investigates the ability of adenoviral infection to influence the activation state of the immune system and underlines the importance of considering this state when planning the treatment of patients.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Infection with adenovirus-based vectors (Ad) or pretreatment with recombinant IFN-β was used as a model to study hypersensitivity to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice, murine macrophages, and human blood samples. The TNF-α, IL-6, IFN-αβ, and IL-10 responses induced by LPS after pretreatment were measured. Mouse knockout models for MARCO, IFN-αβR, CD14, IRF3, and IRF7 were used to probe the mechanisms of the hypersensitive reaction.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>We show that, similar to TNF-α and IL-6 but not IL-10, the induction of IFN-αβ by LPS increases strongly after Ad infection. This is true both in mice and in human blood samples ex vivo, suggesting that the regulatory mechanisms seen in the mouse are also present in humans. In mice, the scavenger receptor MARCO on IFN-αβ-producing cDC and splenic marginal zone macrophages is important for Ad uptake and subsequent cytokine overproduction by LPS. Interestingly, not all IFN-αβ-pretreated macrophage types exposed to LPS exhibit an enhanced TNF-α and IL-6 response. Pretreated alveolar macrophages and alveolar macrophage-like murine cell lines (MPI cells) show enhanced responses, while bone marrow-derived and peritoneal macrophages show a weaker response. This correlates with the respective absence or presence of the anti-inflammatory IL-10 response in these different macrophage types. In contrast, Ad or IFN-β pretreatment enhances the subsequent induction of IFN-αβ in all macrophage types. IRF3 is dispensable for the LPS-induced IFN-αβ overproduction in infected MPI cells and partly dispensable in infected mice, while IRF7 is required. The expression of the LPS co-receptor CD14 is important but not absolutely required for the elicitation of a TNF-α over-response to LPS in Ad-infected mice.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Viral infections or application of virus-based vaccines induces type I interferon and can tip the balance of the innate immune system in the direction of hyperreactivity to a subsequent exposure to TLR ligands.
