Macrophages play essential roles in generating a tolerogenic resident environment, but the interactions between bacteriophages and their action in macrophage tolerance memory remain unknown. Here, we find that gut bacteriophage exposure induces tolerance immunity via reprogrammed macrophages which significantly enhances protection against bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Bacteriophage-memory macrophages orchestrate LPS-challenge responses into tolerization or hyperresponsive gene expression clusters in a function-specific manner. The tolerized gene cluster encodes pro-inflammatory cytokines, while the induction cluster is a defense-specific response including anti-inflammatory cytokines, antiviral and antimicrobial effectors, and negative regulators of inflammation. Mechanistically, this augmented defense response is dependent on increased expression of IL-10, but not suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, bacteriophages suppressed LPS-induced pro-inflammatory genes by repressing histone acetylation target enhancers that coordinate chromatin accessibility to limit inflammation. Thus, our study identifies the function and mechanism of reprogramming actions for bacteriophage in moderating LPS immune responses.
巨噬细胞在营造耐受性驻留环境中发挥着至关重要的作用,但噬菌体与其在巨噬细胞耐受性记忆中的作用之间的相互作用仍不清楚。在此,我们发现肠道噬菌体暴露通过重编程的巨噬细胞诱导耐受性免疫,这显著增强了对细菌脂多糖(LPS)的保护作用。噬菌体记忆巨噬细胞以功能特异性方式将LPS刺激反应协调为耐受或高反应性基因表达簇。耐受基因簇编码促炎细胞因子,而诱导簇是一种防御特异性反应,包括抗炎细胞因子、抗病毒和抗菌效应物以及炎症负调节因子。从机制上讲,这种增强的防御反应依赖于IL-10表达的增加,而不是促炎细胞因子的抑制。此外,噬菌体通过抑制协调染色质可及性以限制炎症的组蛋白乙酰化靶增强子来抑制LPS诱导的促炎基因。因此,我们的研究确定了噬菌体在调节LPS免疫反应中的重编程作用的功能和机制。
