WASP-mediated regulation of anti-inflammatory macrophages is IL-10 dependent and is critical for intestinal homeostasis

Abstract: Mutations in Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) cause autoimmune sequelae including colitis. Yet, how WASP mediates mucosal homeostasis is not fully understood. Here we show that WASP-mediated regulation of anti-inflammatory macrophages is critical for mucosal homeostasis and immune tolerance. The generation and function of anti-inflammatory macrophages are defective in both human and mice in the absence of WASP. Expression of WASP specifically in macrophages, but not in dendritic cells, is critical for r… Show more

“…Macrophages, when activated, contribute to innate immunity against these intracellular pathogens, suggesting that the overall consequences of Dock8 loss in macrophages, namely impaired migration, may be physiologically less important than the consequences of DOCK8 loss in lymphocytes or dendritic cells . Recently, loss of Dock8 in mouse bone marrow‐derived macrophages was found to impair Il‐10‐induced STAT3 signaling and suppressive effects of anti‐inflammatory M2‐type differentiated macrophages . Additional studies are needed to determine whether loss of DOCK8 in macrophages also affects other processes such as phagocytosis.…”

“…Although most DIDS patients lack overt autoimmune disease, many have autoantibodies against cytoplasmic antigens and have expansion of autoreactive CD21 −/low CD10 − CD27 − phenotype B cells, indicating impaired peripheral B cell tolerance . Using culture systems of mouse cells, impaired differentiation of anti‐inflammatory M2‐type macrophages lacking Dock8, including their decreased ability to suppress T cell proliferation, was observed . However, whether this actually occurs in DIDS patients and contributes to their developing autoimmune disease is unknown.…”
