The ability to adopt such diverse functions is due to their heterogeneous nature, which is driven largely by their developmental origin and their response to signals they encounter from the microenvironment. The most well-characterized signals driving macrophage phenotype and function are biochemical and metabolic. However, the way macrophages sense and respond to their extracellular biophysical environment is becoming increasingly recognized in the field of mechano-immunology. These biophysical cues can be signals from tissue components, such as the composition and charge of extracellular matrix or topography, elasticity, and stiffness of the tissue surrounding cells; and mechanical forces such as shear stress or stretch. Macrophages are important in determining whether a disease resolves or becomes chronic. Ageing and diseases such as cancer or fibrotic disorders are associated with significant changes in the tissue biophysical environment, and this provides signals that integrate with those from biochemical and metabolic stimuli to ultimately dictate the overall function of macrophages. This review provides a brief overview of macrophage polarization, followed by a selection of commonly recognized physiological and applied biophysical stimuli impacting macrophage activity, and the potential signalling mechanisms driving downstream responses. The effects of biophysical cues on macrophages' function in homeostasis and disease and the associated clinical implications are also highlighted.</p>","PeriodicalId":72830,"journal":{"name":"Discovery immunology","volume":" ","pages":"kyad013"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10917218/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43369152","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, the advent of novel experimental approaches such as single-cell analysis and fate-mapping tools has uncovered an astonishing display of monocyte plasticity and heterogeneity, which we believe has emerged as a key theme in the field of monocyte biology in the last decade. Monocyte heterogeneity is now recognized to develop as early as the progenitor stage through specific imprinting mechanisms, giving rise to specialized effector cells in the tissue. At the same time, monocytes must overcome their susceptibility towards cellular death to persist as monocyte-derived cells in the tissues.

We also defined a core tissue signature shared between human ILCs and NK cells in the extravascular space of the lung, consistent with imprinting by signals from the local microenvironment.

However, recent research has questioned the translatability of laboratory mouse research into humans and proposed that the exposure of mice to their wild and natural environment may hold the key to further immunological breakthroughs. To date, there have been no studies providing an in-depth cellular analysis of the wild mouse bone marrow. This study utilized wild mice from an isolated island population (Isle of May, Scotland, UK) and performed flow cytometric and histological analysis to characterize the myeloid, lymphoid, hematopoietic progenitor, and adipocyte compartments within the wild mouse bone marrow. We find that, compared to laboratory mouse bone marrow, the wild mouse bone marrow differs in every cell type assessed. Some of the major distinctions include; a smaller B cell compartment with an enriched presence of plasma cells, increased proportions of KLRG1+ CD8+ T cells, diminished CD11b expression in the myeloid lineage and a five-fold enlargement of the eosinophil compartment. We conclude that the wild mouse bone marrow is dramatically distinct from its laboratory counterparts, with multiple phenotypes that to our knowledge have never been observed in laboratory models.
