S100A9 Differentially Modifies Phenotypic States of Neutrophils, Macrophages, and Dendritic Cells: Implications for Atherosclerosis and Adipose Tissue Inflammation
Open accessAbstract
Background—: S100A9 is constitutively expressed in neutrophils, dendritic cells, and monocytes; is associated with acute and chronic inflammatory conditions; and is implicated in obesity and cardiovascular disease in humans. Most of the constitutively secreted S100A9 is derived from myeloid cells. A recent report demonstrated that mice deficient in S100A9 exhibit reduced atherosclerosis compared with controls and suggested that this effect was due in large part to loss of S100A9 in bone marrow–derived cells. Methods and Results—: To directly investigate the role of bone marrow–derived S100A9 in atherosclerosis and insulin resistance in mice, low-density lipoprotein receptor–deficient, S100A9-deficient bone marrow chimeras were generated. Neither atherosclerosis nor insulin resistance was reduced in S100A9-deficient chimeras fed a diet rich in fat and carbohydrates. To investigate the reason for this lack of effect, myeloid cells were isolated from the peritoneal cavity or bone marrow. S100A9-deficient neutrophils exhibited a reduced secretion of cytokines in response to toll-like receptor-4 stimulation. In striking contrast, S100A9-deficient dendritic cells showed an exacerbated release of cytokines after toll-like receptor stimulation. Macrophages rapidly lost S100A9 expression during maturation; hence, S100A9 deficiency did not affect the inflammatory status of macrophages. Conclusions—: S100A9 differentially modifies phenotypic states of neutrophils, macrophages, and dendritic cells. The effect of S100A9 deficiency on atherosclerosis and other inflammatory diseases is therefore predicted to depend on the relative contribution of these cell types at different stages of disease progression. Furthermore, S100A9 expression in nonmyeloid cells is likely to contribute to atherosclerosis.

HLAhiS100lo cDC2s were enriched in antigen-presenting genes, whereas S100hiHLAlo cDC2s enriched for regulatory genes including TGFBR1 and S100A9, reported to suppress DC cytokine production.
“Although the HLAhiS100lo cDC2 cluster was enriched in antigen-presenting genes, S100hiHLAlo cDC2s enriched for regulatory genes, including TGFBR1 and S100A9, were reported to suppress DC cytokine production29 (Fig. 4c,d).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
