摘要

纤维化的特点是由于组织修复反应失调导致细胞外基质(ECM)异常沉积,给纤维化相关疾病造成了巨大的全球性负担。虽然表达α-平滑肌肌动蛋白(α-SMA/ACTA2)的肌成纤维细胞被认为是纤维化过程中的关键角色,但 ECM 生成细胞的来源仍存在争议。为了解决这个问题,我们整合并分析了大规模单细胞转录组数据集,这些数据集来自患有不同纤维化疾病的患者,涉及心脏、肺、肝脏或肾脏。意想不到的是,并非所有表达 ACTA2 的细胞都是通过表达胶原基因鉴定的 ECM 生成细胞;相反,在所有纤维化疾病中,大多数 ECM 生成细胞都是来源于循环骨髓前体的肌成纤维细胞和成纤维细胞,少量来源于局部周细胞和血管平滑细胞。在性别不匹配的肾脏移植中发现,产生 ECM 的细胞来源于受体而非供体的骨髓来源祖细胞(BMPCs),从而证实了这一点。此外,这些源自 BMPCs 的 ECM 生成细胞表现出一种促炎表型。因此,具有干细胞特性的骨髓源性促炎症和坏死性成纤维细胞/肌成纤维细胞是ECM生成细胞的主要来源,可能在多种人类纤维化疾病的组织纤维化中起着推动作用。以这些产生 ECM 的细胞为靶标,可为纤维化疾病提供一种新型疗法。

Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing Identifies Bone Marrow-Derived Progenitor Cells as a Main Source of Extracellular Matrix-Producing Cells Across Multiple Organ-Based Fibrotic Diseases.

Fibrosis is characterized by the aberrant deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) due to dysregulated tissue repair responses, imposing a significant global burden on fibrosis-related diseases. Although alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA/ACTA2)-expressing myofibroblasts are considered as key player in fibrogenesis, the origin of ECM-producing cells remains controversial. To address this issue, we integrated and analyzed large-scale single-cell transcriptomic datasets from patients with distinct fibrotic diseases involving the heart, lung, liver, or kidney. Unexpectedly, not all ACTA2-expressing cells were ECM-producing cells identified by expressing collagen genes; instead, the majority of ECM-producing cells were myofibroblasts and fibroblasts derived from circulating bone marrow precursor, and to a lesser extent from local pericytes and vascular smooth cells in all fibrotic diseases. This was confirmed in sex-mismatched kidney transplants by the discovery that ECM-producing cells originated from recipient, not donor, bone marrow-derived progenitor cells (BMPCs). Moreover, these BMPCs-derived ECM-producing cells exhibited a proinflammatory phenotype. Thus, bone marrow-derived proinflammatory and profibrotic fibroblasts/myofibroblasts with stem cell properties serve as a major source of ECM-producing cells and may play a driving role in tissue fibrosis across a wide range of human fibrotic diseases. Targeting these ECM-producing cells may provide a novel therapy for diseases with fibrosis.
