Macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptor (M-CSFR/CSF1R) signaling is crucial for the differentiation, proliferation, and survival of myeloid cells. Therapeutic targeting of the CSF1R pathway is a promising strategy in many human diseases, including neurological disorders or cancer. Zebrafish are commonly used for human disease modeling and preclinical therapeutic screening. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the proper function of cytokine signaling in zebrafish to reliably model human-related diseases. Here, we investigate the roles of zebrafish Csf1rs and their ligands - Csf1a, Csf1b and Il34, in embryonic and adult myelopoiesis. The proliferative effect of exogenous Csf1a on embryonic macrophages is connected to both receptors as it is diminished in both csf1raΔ5bp and csf1rbΔ4bp mutants. There is no evident effect of Csf1b in zebrafish embryonic myelopoiesis. Further, we uncover an unknown role of Csf1rb in zebrafish granulopoiesis. Deregulation of Csf1rb signaling leads to failure in myeloid differentiation resulting in neutropenia throughout the whole lifespan. Surprisingly, Il34 signaling through Csf1rb seems to be of high importance as both csf1rbΔ4bp and il34Δ5bp deficient zebrafish larvae lack granulocytes. Our single-cell RNA sequencing analysis of adult whole kidney marrow (WKM) hematopoietic cells suggests that csf1rb is expressed mainly by blood and myeloid progenitors and that the expression of csf1ra and csf1rb is non-overlapping. We point out differentially expressed genes important in hematopoietic cell differentiation and immune response in selected WKM populations. Our findings could improve the understanding of myeloid cell function and lead to the further study of CSF1R pathway deregulation in disease, mostly in cancerogenesis.

Abstract The granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF ) receptor is expressed on normal and malignant hematopoietic cells as well as on cells from other organs in which it transduces a variety of functions. Despite the widespread expression and pleiotropic nature of the GM-CSF receptor, little is known about its assembly and activation mechanism. Using a combination of biochemical and functional approaches, we have found that the human GM-CSF receptor exists as an inducible complex, analogous to the interleukin-3 (IL-3) receptor, and also as a preformed complex, unlike the IL-3 receptor or indeed other members of the cytokine receptor superfamily. We found that monoclonal antibodies to the GM-CSF receptor α chain (GMRα) and to the common β chain of the GM-CSF, IL-3, and IL-5 receptors (βc ) immunoprecipitated both GMRα and βc from the surface of primary myeloid cells, myeloid cell lines, and transfected cells in the absence of GM-CSF. Further association of the two chains could be induced by the addition of GM-CSF. The preformed complex required only the extracellular regions of GMRα and βc , as shown by the ability of soluble βc to associate with membrane-anchored GMRα or soluble GMRα. Kinetic experiments on eosinophils and monocytes with radiolabeled GM-CSF, IL-3, and IL-5 showed association characteristics unique to GM-CSF. Significantly, receptor phosphorylation experiments showed that not only GM-CSF but also IL-3 and IL-5 stimulated the phosphorylation of GMRα-associated βc . These results indicate a pattern of assembly of the heterodimeric GM-CSF receptor that is unique among receptors of the cytokine receptor superfamily. These results also suggest that the preformed GM-CSF receptor complex mediates the instantaneous binding of GM-CSF and is a target of phosphorylation by IL-3 and IL-5, raising the possibility that some of the biologic activities of IL-3 and IL-5 are mediated through the GM-CSF receptor complex.

Defects in macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) signaling disrupt myeloid cell differentiation in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice, blocking myeloid maturation into tolerogenic antigen-presenting cells (APCs). In the absence of M-CSF signaling, NOD myeloid cells have abnormally high granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) expression, and as a result, persistent activation of signal transducer/activator of transcription 5 (STAT5). Persistent STAT5 phosphorylation found in NOD macrophages is not affected by inhibiting GM-CSF. However, STAT5 phosphorylation in NOD bone marrow cells is diminished if GM-CSF signaling is blocked. Moreover, if M-CSF signaling is inhibited, GM-CSF stimulationin vitrocan promote STAT5 phosphorylation in nonautoimmune C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow cultures to levels seen in the NOD. These findings suggest that excessive GM-CSF production in the NOD bone marrow may interfere with the temporal sequence of GM-CSF and M-CSF signaling needed to mediate normal STAT5 function in myeloid cell differentiation gene regulation.

Abstract Abstract 3789 Humanized mice, i.e. mice with a functional human immune system, have great potential to study human immunology in vivo and to allow vaccine testing. To this end, mice need to fully support engraftment with human immune cells, allow infection with human pathogens, and mount effective human immune responses to pathogens. A major limitation of current humanized mice is the poor development and function of human myeloid cells. Here we report a novel strategy to overcome this limitation by generating human interleukin-3/granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor knock-in (hIL-3/GM-CSF KI) mice to create a better environment for human myeloid cells. These mice faithfully expressed human GM-CSF and IL-3 and developed pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) due to elimination of mouse GM-CSF. We demonstrate that hIL-3/GM-CSF KI mice engrafted with human CD34+ hematopoietic cells had improved human myeloid cell reconstitution in the lung. In particular, hIL-3/GM-CSF KI mice supported the development of human alveolar macrophages that partially rescued the PAP syndrome. In addition, these mice showed an enhanced systemic inflammatory response to LPS. Finally, humanization of IL-3 and GM-CSF lead to a stronger innate immune response against influenza virus infection. In summary, hIL-3/GM-CSF KI mice represent a new mouse model to study human immune responses in the lung and against pathogens such as influenza.
