Delivery of an mRNA formulated with lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) induces robust humoral and cell-mediated branches of the immune response. Depending on the LNP formula, mRNA encoding proteins can be detected in the liver upon intramuscular administration of mRNA/LNP in mice. This study investigated the impact of mRNA/LNP administration on liver-associated macrophages at the transcriptomic and epigenetic levels in a mouse model. An mRNA encoding ovalbumin (OVA) formulated with LNPs, was administered intramuscularly, and a robust OVA-specific antibody was detected in the serum on Day 7. F4/80 liver-associated macrophages were isolated and subjected to RNA sequencing, which identified 554 genes whose expression levels were altered compared with those in the PBS control group. The expression of genes involved in macrophage inflammatory functions, such as Tnf, Il6 and Marco, were upregulated. Gene ontology enrichment analysis revealed that IL-6/JAK/STAT3 and TNFα/NF-κB hallmarks were significantly enriched, and mRNA/LNP-exposed liver-associated macrophages were characterized as M1-like cells based on the macrophage transcriptomic profiles. Enrichment of the active histone mark H3K4me3 showed that clusters of loci were highly increased in the mRNA/LNP group, indicating an impact of mRNA/LNPs on macrophage epigenetic profiles. The cis-regulatory regions of Tnf, Il6 and Marco showed enrichment of H3K4me3 marks, which correlated well with their increased transcription. Taken together, our data indicated that mRNA/LNP administration via the intramuscular route influences the gene expression and epigenetic profiles of liver-associated macrophages, reflecting its robust ability to induce an immune response.
用脂质纳米颗粒(LNP)配制的mRNA的递送可诱导强大的体液免疫和细胞介导的免疫反应分支。根据LNP配方,在小鼠中肌肉注射mRNA/LNP后,可在肝脏中检测到编码蛋白质的mRNA。本研究在小鼠模型中,在转录组和表观遗传水平上研究了mRNA/LNP给药对肝脏相关巨噬细胞的影响。用LNP配制的编码卵清蛋白(OVA)的mRNA通过肌肉注射给药,在第7天血清中检测到强大的OVA特异性抗体。分离F4/80肝脏相关巨噬细胞并进行RNA测序,鉴定出554个基因,其表达水平与PBS对照组相比发生了改变。参与巨噬细胞炎症功能的基因,如Tnf、Il6和Marco的表达上调。基因本体富集分析显示,IL-6/JAK/STAT3和TNFα/NF-κB特征显著富集,基于巨噬细胞转录组谱,暴露于mRNA/LNP的肝脏相关巨噬细胞被表征为M1样细胞。活性组蛋白标记H3K4me3的富集表明,mRNA/LNP组中基因座簇高度增加,表明mRNA/LNP对巨噬细胞表观遗传谱有影响。Tnf、Il6和Marco的顺式调控区域显示H3K4me3标记富集,这与其转录增加密切相关。综上所述,我们的数据表明,通过肌肉注射途径给予mRNA/LNP会影响肝脏相关巨噬细胞的基因表达和表观遗传谱,反映出其诱导免疫反应的强大能力。
