Study Title | IL-1β-mediated adaptive re-programming of endogenous human cardiac fibroblasts to cells with immune features during fibrotic remodeling |
Study Summary | The source and roles of fibroblasts and CD4 helper T-cells during maladaptive remodeling and myocardial fibrosis in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) have been long debated. We demonstrate, using single-cell mass cytometry, a sub-population of endogenous human cardiac fibroblasts expressing increased levels of CD4, a helper T-cell marker, in addition to myofibroblast markers distributed in human fibrotic RV tissue, interstitial/perivascular lesions of SUGEN/Hypoxia (SuHx) rats and fibroblasts labelled with pdgfrα CreERt2/+ in R26R-tdTomato mice. Recombinant IL-1β increases IL-1R, CCR2 receptor expression, modifies the secretome, and differentiates cardiac fibroblasts to form CD68 positive cell clusters. IL-1β also activates stemness markers such as NANOG and SOX2 and genes involved in de-differentiation, lymphoid cell function and metabolic reprogramming. IL-1β induction of lineage traced primary mouse cardiac fibroblasts causes these cells to lose their fibroblast identity and acquire an immune phenotype. Our results identify IL-1β induced immune-competency in human cardiac fibroblasts and suggest that fibroblast secretome modulation may constitute a therapeutic approach to PAH and other diseases typified by inflammation and fibrotic remodeling. |
