Abstract
It is becoming clear that every organ is seeded by a population of fetal liver-derived macrophages that are replaced at different rates by monocyte-derived macrophages. Using the Ms4a3tdTomato reporter mouse that reports on monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (Mo-AMs) and our ability to examine AM function using our multichannel intravital microscopy, we examined the fetal-liver derived alveolar macrophage (FL-AM) and Mo-AM populations within the same mouse under various environmental conditions. The experiments unveiled that AMs migrated from alveolus to alveolus and phagocytosed bacteria identically regardless of ontogenic origin. Using 50 PFU of influenza A virus (IAV) determined using the Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line, we noted that both populations were susceptible to IAV-induced immunoparalysis, which also led to impaired phagocytosis of secondary bacterial infections. Both FL-AMs and Mo-AMs were trained by β-glucan to resist IAV-induced paralysis. Over time (40 wk), Mo-AMs began to outperform FL-AMs, although both populations were still sensitive to IAV. Our data also show that clodronate depletion of AMs leads to replenishment, but by FL-AMs, and these macrophages do show some functional impairment for a limited time. Overall, the system is designed such that new macrophages rapidly assume the function of tissue-resident macrophages when both populations are examined in an identical environment. These data do differ from artificial depletion methods that compare Mo-AMs and FL-AMs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Ductular reaction expansion is associated with poor prognosis in patients with advanced liver disease. However, the mechanisms promoting biliary cell proliferation are largely unknown. Here, we identify neutrophils as drivers of biliary cell proliferation and the defective wound-healing response. METHODS The intrahepatic localization of neutrophils was evaluated in patients with chronic liver disease. Neutrophil dynamics were analyzed by intravital microscopy and neutrophil-labeling assays in DDC-treated mice. Neutrophil depletion or inhibition of recruitment was achieved using a Ly6g antibody or a CXCR1/2 inhibitor, respectively. Mice deficient in PAD4 (peptidyl arginine deiminase 4) and ELANE/NE (neutrophil elastase) were used to investigate the mechanisms underlying ductular reaction expansion. RESULTS In this study we describe a population of ductular reaction-associated neutrophils (DRANs), which are in direct contact with biliary epithelial cells in chronic liver diseases and whose numbers increased in parallel with disease progression. We show that DRANs are immobilized at the site of ductular reaction for a prolonged period of time. In addition, liver neutrophils display a unique phenotypic and transcriptomic profile, showing a decreased phagocytic capacity and increased oxidative burst. Depletion of neutrophils or inhibition of their recruitment reduces DRANs and the expansion of ductular reaction, while mitigating liver fibrosis and angiogenesis. Mechanistically, neutrophils deficient in PAD4 and ELANE abrogate neutrophil-induced biliary cell proliferation, thus indicating the role of neutrophil extracellular traps and elastase release in ductular reaction expansion. CONCLUSIONS Overall, our study reveals the accumulation of DRANs as a hallmark of advanced liver disease and a potential therapeutic target to mitigate ductular reaction and the maladaptive wound-healing response. IMPACT AND IMPLICATIONS Our results indicate that neutrophils are highly plastic and can have an extended lifespan. Moreover, we identify a new role of neutrophils as triggers of expansion of the biliary epithelium. Overall, the results of this study indicate that ductular reaction-associated neutrophils (or DRANs) are new players in the maladaptive tissue-healing response in chronic liver injury and may be a potential target for therapeutic interventions to reduce ductular reaction expansion and promote tissue repair in advanced liver disease.

Abstract
Kupffer cells (KCs) are localized in liver sinusoids but extend pseudopods to parenchymal cells to maintain their identity and serve as the body's central bacterial filter. Liver cirrhosis drastically alters vascular architecture, but how KCs adapt is unclear. We used a mouse model of liver fibrosis and human tissue to examine immune adaptation. Fibrosis forced KCs to lose contact with parenchymal cells, down-regulating "KC identity," which rendered them incapable of clearing bacteria. Commensals stimulated the recruitment of monocytes through CD44 to a spatially distinct vascular compartment. There, recruited monocytes formed large aggregates of multinucleated cells (syncytia) that expressed phenotypical KC markers and displayed enhanced bacterial capture ability. Syncytia formed via CD36 and were observed in human cirrhosis as a possible antimicrobial defense that evolved with fibrosis.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) enters the respiratory tract, where it infects the alveoli epithelial lining. However, patients have sequelae that extend well beyond the alveoli into the pulmonary vasculature and, perhaps, beyond to the brain and other organs. Because of the dynamic events within blood vessels, histology does not report platelet and neutrophil behavior. Because of the rapid nontranscriptional response of these cells, neither single-cell RNA sequencing nor proteomics report robustly on their critical behaviors. We used intravital microscopy in level-3 containment to examine the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 within 3 organs in mice expressing human angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) ubiquitously (CAG-AC-70) or on epithelium (K18-promoter). Using a neon-green SARS-CoV-2, we observed both the epithelium and endothelium infected in AC70 mice but only the epithelium in K18 mice. There were increased neutrophils in the microcirculation but not in the alveoli of the lungs of AC70 mice. Platelets formed large aggregates in the pulmonary capillaries. Despite only neurons being infected within the brain, profound neutrophil adhesion forming the nidus of large platelet aggregates were observed in the cerebral microcirculation, with many nonperfused microvessels. Neutrophils breached the brain endothelial layer associated with a significant disruption of the blood-brain-barrier. Despite ubiquitous ACE-2 expression, CAG-AC-70 mice had very small increases in blood cytokine, no increase in thrombin, no infected circulating cells, and no liver involvement suggesting limited systemic effects. In summary, our imaging of SARS-CoV-2-infected mice gave direct evidence that there is a significant perturbation locally in the lung and brain microcirculation induced by local viral infection leading to increased local inflammation and thrombosis in these organs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), caused by mutations in the pyrin-encoding MEFV gene, is characterized by uncontrolled caspase-1 activation and IL-1β secretion. A similar mechanism drives inflammation in cryopyrin-associated periodic fever syndrome (CAPS) caused by mutations in NLRP3. CAPS and FMF, however, result in largely different clinical manifestations, pointing to additional, autoinflammatory pathways involved in FMF. Another hallmark of FMF is extraordinarily high expression of S100A8 and S100A9. These alarmins are ligands of Toll-like receptor 4 and amplifiers of inflammation. However, the relevance of this inflammatory pathway for the pathogenesis of FMF is unknown. OBJECTIVE This study investigated whether mutations in pyrin result in specific secretion of S100A8/A9 alarmins through gasdermin D pores' amplifying FMF pathology. METHODS S100A8/A9 levels in FMF patients were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In vitro models with knockout cell lines and specific protein inhibitors were used to unravel the S100A8/A9 secretion mechanism. The impact of S100A8/A9 to the pathophysiology of FMF was analyzed with FMF (MEFVV726A/V726A) and S100A9-/- mouse models. Pyrin-S100A8/A9 interaction was investigated by coimmunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay studies. RESULTS The S100A8/A9 complexes directly interacted with pyrin. Knocking out pyrin, caspase-1, or gasdermin D inhibited the secretion of these S100 alarmins. Inflammatory S100A8/A9 dimers were inactivated by tetramer formation. Blocking this inactivation by targeted S100A9 deletion in a murine FMF model demonstrated the relevance of this novel autoinflammatory pathway in FMF. CONCLUSION This is the first proof that members of the S100 alarmin family are released in a pyrin/caspase-1/gasdermin D-dependent pathway and directly drive autoinflammation in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute liver failure (ALF) is characterized by rapid clinical deterioration and high mortality. Acetaminophen (APAP or paracetamol) overdose is a leading cause of ALF, resulting in hepatocellular necrosis with subsequent inflammation, inflicting further liver damage. Infiltrating myeloid cells are early drivers of liver inflammation. However, the role of the abundant population of liver-resident innate lymphocytes, which commonly express the chemokine receptor CXCR6, is incompletely understood in ALF. METHODS We investigated the role of CXCR6-expressing innate lymphocytes using the model of acute APAP toxicity in mice deficient in CXCR6 (Cxcr6gfp/gfp). RESULTS APAP-induced liver injury was strongly aggravated in Cxcr6gfp/gfp mice compared with wild-type counterparts. Immunophenotyping using flow cytometry revealed a reduction in liver CD4+T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and most prominently, NKT cells, whereas CXCR6 was dispensable for CD8+ T-cell accumulation. CXCR6-deficient mice exhibited excessive neutrophil and inflammatory macrophage infiltration. Intravital microscopy revealed dense cellular clusters of neutrophils in necrotic liver tissue, with higher numbers of clustering neutrophils in Cxcr6gfp/gfp mice. Gene expression analysis linked hyperinflammation in CXCR6 deficiency to increased IL-17 signaling. Although reduced in overall numbers, CXCR6-deficient mice had a shift in NKT cell subsets with increased RORγt-expressing NKT17 cells as a likely source of IL-17. In patients with ALF, we found a prominent accumulation of IL-17-expressing cells. Accordingly, CXCR6-deficient mice lacking IL-17 (Cxcr6gfp/gfpx Il17-/-) had ameliorated liver damage and reduced inflammatory myeloid infiltrates. CONCLUSIONS Our study identifies a crucial role of CXCR6-expressing liver innate lymphocytes as orchestrators in acute liver injury containing IL-17-mediated myeloid cell infiltration. Hence, strengthening the CXCR6-axis or downstream inhibition of IL-17 could yield novel therapeutics in ALF.

Abstract
Neutrophils are cells of the innate immune system that are extremely abundant in vivo and respond quickly to infection, injury, and inflammation. Their constant circulation throughout the body makes them some of the first responders to infection, and indeed they play a critical role in host defense against bacterial and fungal pathogens. It is now appreciated that neutrophils also play an important role in tissue healing after injury. Their short life cycle, rapid response kinetics, and vast numbers make neutrophils a highly dynamic and potentially extremely influential cell population. It has become clear that they are highly integrated with other cells of the immune system and can thus exert critical effects on the course of an inflammatory response; they can further impact tissue homeostasis and recovery after challenge. In this review, we discuss the fundamentals of neutrophils in host defense and healing; we explore the relationship between neutrophils and the dynamic host environment, including circadian cycles and the microbiome; we survey the field of neutrophils in asthma and allergy; and we consider the question of neutrophil heterogeneity-namely, whether there could be specific subsets of neutrophils that perform different functions in vivo.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and has resulted in more than 6 million deaths worldwide. COVID-19 is a respiratory disease characterized by pulmonary dysfunction leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDs), as well as disseminated coagulation, and multi-organ dysfunction. Neutrophils and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of COVID-19. In this review, we highlight key gaps in knowledge, discuss the heterogeneity of neutrophils during the evolution of the disease, how they can contribute to COVID-19 pathogenesis, and potential therapeutic strategies that target neutrophil-mediated inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Abdominal surgeries are frequently associated with the development of post-surgical adhesions. These are irreversible fibrotic scar bands that appear between abdominal organs and the abdominal wall. Patients suffering from adhesions are at risk of severe complications, such as small bowel obstruction, chronic pelvic pain, or infertility. To date, no cure exists, and the understanding of underlying molecular mechanisms of adhesion formation is incomplete. The current paradigm largely relies on sterile injury mouse models. However, abdominal surgeries in human patients are rarely completely sterile procedures. Here, we describe a modular surgical procedure for simultaneous or separate induction of sterile injury and microbial contamination. Combined, these insults synergistically lead to adhesion formation in the mouse peritoneal cavity. Surgical trauma is confined to a localized sterile injury of the peritoneum. Microbial contamination of the peritoneal cavity is induced by a limited perforation of the microbe-rich large intestine or by injection of fecal content. The presented protocol extends previous injury-based adhesion models by an additional insult through microbial contamination, which may more adequately model the clinical context of abdominal surgery.

Abstract
During infection, inflammatory monocytes are thought to be key for bacterial eradication, but this is hard to reconcile with the large numbers of neutrophils that are recruited for each monocyte that migrates to the afflicted tissue, and the much more robust microbicidal functions of the neutrophils. However, unlike neutrophils, monocytes have the capacity to convert to situationally specific macrophages that may have critical functions beyond infection control1,2. Here, using a foreign body coated with Staphylococcus aureus and imaging over time from cutaneous infection to wound resolution, we show that monocytes and neutrophils are recruited in similar numbers with low-dose infection but not with high-dose infection, and form a localization pattern in which monocytes surround the infection site, whereas neutrophils infiltrate it. Monocytes did not contribute to bacterial clearance but converted to macrophages that persisted for weeks after infection, regulating hypodermal adipocyte expansion and production of the adipokine hormone leptin. In infected monocyte-deficient mice there was increased persistent hypodermis thickening and an elevated leptin level, which drove overgrowth of dysfunctional blood vasculature and delayed healing, with a thickened scar. Ghrelin, which opposes leptin function3, was produced locally by monocytes, and reduced vascular overgrowth and improved healing post-infection. In sum, we find that monocytes function as a cellular rheostat by regulating leptin levels and revascularization during wound repair.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the most abundant innate immune cell and are equipped with highly destructive molecular cargo. As such, these cells were long thought to be short-lived killer cells that unleash their full cytotoxic programs on pathogens following infection and on host bystander cells after sterile injury. However, this view of neutrophils is overly simplistic and as a result is outdated. Numerous studies now collectively highlight neutrophils as far more complex and having a host of homeostatic and tissue-reparative functions. In this review, we summarize these underappreciated roles across organs and injury models.

Abstract
AbstractInvariant NKT (iNKT) cells comprise a heterogeneous group of non-circulating, tissue-resident T lymphocytes that recognize glycolipids, including alpha-galactosylceramide (αGalCer), in the context of CD1d, but whether peripheral iNKT cell subsets are terminally differentiated remains unclear. Here we show that mouse and human liver-resident αGalCer/CD1d-binding iNKTs largely correspond to a novel Zbtb16+Tbx21+Gata3+MaflowRorc– subset that exhibits profound transcriptional, phenotypic and functional plasticity. Repetitive in vivo encounters of these liver iNKT (LiNKT) cells with intravenously delivered αGalCer/CD1d-coated nanoparticles (NP) trigger their differentiation into immunoregulatory, IL-10+IL-21-producing Zbtb16highMafhighTbx21+Gata3+Rorc– cells, termed LiNKTR1, expressing a T regulatory type 1 (TR1)-like transcriptional signature. This response is LiNKT-specific, since neither lung nor splenic tissue-resident iNKT cells from αGalCer/CD1d-NP-treated mice produce IL-10 or IL-21. Additionally, these LiNKTR1 cells suppress autoantigen presentation, and recognize CD1d expressed on conventional B cells to induce IL-10+IL-35-producing regulatory B (Breg) cells, leading to the suppression of liver and pancreas autoimmunity. Our results thus suggest that LiNKT cells are plastic for further functional diversification, with such plasticity potentially targetable for suppressing tissue-specific inflammatory phenomena.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the first responders to infection and inflammation and are thus a critical component of innate immune defense. Understanding the behavior of neutrophils as they act within various inflammatory contexts has provided insights into their role in sterile and infectious diseases; however, the field of neutrophils in cancer is comparatively young. Here, we summarize key concepts and current knowledge gaps related to the diverse roles of neutrophils throughout cancer progression. We discuss sources of neutrophil heterogeneity in cancer and provide recommendations on nomenclature for neutrophil states that are distinct in maturation and activation. We address discrepancies in the literature that highlight a need for technical standards that ought to be considered between laboratories. Finally, we review emerging questions in neutrophil biology and innate immunity in cancer. Overall, we emphasize that neutrophils are a more diverse population than previously appreciated and that their role in cancer may present novel unexplored opportunities to treat cancer.

Abstract
αLβ2 (LFA-1) mediated interactions with ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 predominate leukocyte-vascular interactions, but their functions in extravascular cell-cell communications is still debated. The roles of these two ligands in leukocyte trafficking, lymphocyte differentiation, and immunity to influenza infections were dissected in the present study. Surprisingly, double ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 knock out mice (herein ICAM-1/2-/- mice) infected with a lab adapted H1N1 influenza A virus fully recovered from infection, elicited potent humoral immunity, and generated normal long lasting anti-viral CD8+ T cell memory. Furthermore, lung capillary ICAMs were dispensable for both NK and neutrophil entry to virus infected lungs. Mediastinal lymph nodes (MedLNs) of ICAM-1/2-/- mice poorly recruited naïve T cells and B lymphocytes but elicited normal humoral immunity critical for viral clearance and effective CD8+ differentiation into IFN-γ producing T cells. Furthermore, whereas reduced numbers of virus specific effector CD8+ T cells accumulated inside infected ICAM-1/2-/- lungs, normal virus-specific TRM CD8+ cells were generated inside these lungs and fully protected ICAM-1/2-/- mice from secondary heterosubtypic infections. B lymphocyte entry to the MedLNs and differentiation into extrafollicular plasmablasts, producing high affinity anti-influenza IgG2a antibodies, were also ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 independent. A potent antiviral humoral response was associated with accumulation of hyper-stimulated cDC2s in ICAM null MedLNs and higher numbers of virus-specific T follicular helper (Tfh) cells generated following lung infection. Mice selectively depleted of cDC ICAM-1 expression supported, however, normal CTL and Tfh differentiation following influenza infection, ruling out essential co-stimulatory functions of DC ICAM-1 in CD8+ and CD4+ T cell differentiation. Collectively our findings suggest that lung ICAMs are dispensable for innate leukocyte trafficking to influenza infected lungs, for the generation of peri-epithelial TRM CD8+ cells, and long term anti-viral cellular immunity. In lung draining LNs, although ICAMs promote lymphocyte homing, these key integrin ligands are not required for influenza-specific humoral immunity or generation of IFN-γ effector CD8+ T cells. In conclusion, our findings suggest unexpected compensatory mechanisms that orchestrate protective anti-influenza immunity in the absence of vascular and extravascular ICAMs.

Abstract
Background Neutrophils play a role in innate immunity and are critical for clearance of Staphylococcus aureus. Current understanding of neutrophil bactericidal effects is that NADPH oxidase produces reactive oxygen species (ROS), mediating bacterial killing. Neutrophils also contain numerous mitochondria; since these organelles lack oxidative metabolism, their function is unclear. We hypothesize that mitochondria in human neutrophils contribute to the bactericidal capacity of S. aureus. Methods and Findings: Using human neutrophils isolated from healthy volunteers (n = 13; 7 females, 6 males), we show that mitochondria are critical in the immune response to S. aureus. Using live-cell and fixed confocal, and transmission electron microscopy, we show mitochondrial tagging of bacteria prior to ingestion and surrounding of phagocytosed bacteria immediately upon engulfment. Further, we demonstrate that mitochondria are ejected from intact neutrophils and engage bacteria during vital NETosis. Inhibition of the mitochondrial electron transport chain at Complex III, but not Complex I, attenuates S. aureus killing by 50 ± 7%, comparable to the NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin. Similarly, mitochondrial ROS scavenging using MitoTEMPO attenuates bacterial killing 112 ± 60% versus vehicle control. Antimycin A treatment also reduces mitochondrial ROS production by 50 ± 12% and NETosis by 53 ± 5%. Conclusions We identify a previously unrecognized role for mitochondria in human neutrophils in the killing of S. aureus. Inhibition of electron transport chain Complex III significantly impairs antimicrobial activity. This is the first demonstration that vital NETosis, an early event in the antimicrobial response, occurring within 5 min of bacterial exposure, depends on the function of mitochondrial Complex III. Mitochondria join NADPH oxidase as bactericidal ROS generators that mediate the bactericidal activities of human neutrophils. This study evaluates the role of neutrophil mitochondria in the immune response to Staphylococcus aureus. Mitochondrial electron transport chain inhibition at Complex III significantly attenuates neutrophil bactericidal activity.

Abstract
Abdominal surgeries are lifesaving procedures but can be complicated by the formation of peritoneal adhesions, intra-abdominal scars that cause intestinal obstruction, pain, infertility, and significant health costs. Despite this burden, the mechanisms underlying adhesion formation remain unclear and no cure exists. Here, we show that contamination of gut microbes increases post-surgical adhesion formation. Using genetic lineage tracing we show that adhesion myofibroblasts arise from the mesothelium. This transformation is driven by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling. The EGFR ligands amphiregulin and heparin-binding epidermal growth factor, are sufficient to induce these changes. Correspondingly, EGFR inhibition leads to a significant reduction of adhesion formation in mice. Adhesions isolated from human patients are enriched in EGFR positive cells of mesothelial origin and human mesothelium shows an increase of mesothelial EGFR expression during bacterial peritonitis. In conclusion, bacterial contamination drives adhesion formation through mesothelial EGFR signaling. This mechanism may represent a therapeutic target for the prevention of adhesions after intra-abdominal surgery.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening syndrome, constituted by respiratory failure and diffuse alveolar damage that results from dysregulated local and systemic immune activation, causing pulmonary vascular, parenchymal, and alveolar damage. SARS-CoV-2 infection has become the dominant cause of ARDS worldwide, and emerging evidence implicates neutrophils and their cytotoxic arsenal of effector functions as central drivers of immune-mediated lung injury in COVID-19 ARDS. However, key outstanding questions are whether COVID-19 drives a unique program of neutrophil activation or effector functions that contribute to the severe pathogenesis of this pandemic illness and whether this unique neutrophil response can be targeted to attenuate disease. Using a combination of high-dimensional single-cell analysis and ex vivo functional assays of neutrophils from patients with COVID-19 ARDS, compared with those with non-COVID ARDS (caused by bacterial pneumonia), we identified a functionally distinct landscape of neutrophil activation in COVID-19 ARDS that was intrinsically programmed during SARS-CoV-2 infection. Furthermore, neutrophils in COVID-19 ARDS were functionally primed to produce high amounts of neutrophil extracellular traps. Surprisingly, this unique pathological program of neutrophil priming escaped conventional therapy with dexamethasone, thereby revealing a promising target for adjunctive immunotherapy in severe COVID-19.

Abstract
Highly dynamic immune responses are generated toward pathogens or injuries, in vivo. Multiple immune cell types participate in various facets of the response which leads to a concerted effort in the removal and clearance of pathogens or injured tissue and a return to homeostasis. Intravital microscopy (IVM) has been extensively utilized to unravel the dynamics of immune responses, visualizing immune cell behavior in intact living tissues, within a living organism. For instance, the phenomenon of leukocyte recruitment cascade. Importantly, IVM has led to a deep appreciation that immune cell behavior and responses in individual organs are distinct, but also can influence one another. In this review, we discuss how IVM as a tool has been used to study the innate immune responses in various tissues during homeostasis, injury, and infection.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer patients frequently develop liver metastases after, and perhaps as a consequence of, lifesaving surgical resection of the primary tumor. This creates a potential opportunity for prophylactic metastatic treatment with novel immunostimulatory molecules. Here, we used state-of-the-art intravital imaging of an experimental liver metastasis model to visualize the early behavior and function of invariant (i)NKT cells stimulated with α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer). Intravenous α-GalCer prior to tumor cell seeding in the liver significantly inhibited tumor growth. However, some seeding tumor cells survived. A multiple dosing regimen reduced tumor burden and prolonged the life of mice, whereas tumors returned within 5 days after a single dose of α-GalCer. With multiple doses of α-GalCer, iNKT cells increased in number and granularity (as did NK cells). As a result, the total number of contacts and time in contact with tumors increased substantially. In the absence of iNKT cells, the beneficial effect of α-GalCer was lost. Robust cytokine production dissipated over time. Repeated therapy, even after cytokine dissipation, led to reduced tumor burden and prolonged survival. Serial transplantation of tumors exposed to α-GalCer-activated iNKT cells did not induce greater resistance, suggesting no obvious epigenetic or genetic immunoediting in tumors exposed to activated iNKT cells. Very few tumor cells expressed CD1d in this model, and as such, adding monomers of CD1d-α-GalCer further reduced tumor growth. The data suggest early and repeated stimulation of iNKT cells with α-GalCer could have direct therapeutic benefit for colorectal cancer patients that develop metastatic liver disease.

Abstract
Intracellular infection with the parasite Leishmania major features a state of concomitant immunity in which CD4+ T helper 1 (Th1) cell-mediated immunity against reinfection coincides with a chronic but sub-clinical primary infection. In this setting, the rapidity of the Th1 response at a secondary site of challenge in the skin represents the best correlate of parasite elimination and has been associated with a reversal in Leishmania-mediated modulation of monocytic host cells. Remarkably, the degree to which Th1 cells are absolutely reliant upon the time at which they interact with infected monocytes to mediate their protective effect has not been defined. In the present work, we report that CXCR3-dependent recruitment of Ly6C+ Th1 effector (Th1EFF) cells is indispensable for concomitant immunity and acute (<4 days post-infection) Th1EFF cell-phagocyte interactions are critical to prevent the establishment of a permissive pathogen niche, as evidenced by altered recruitment, gene expression and functional capacity of innate and adaptive immune cells at the site of secondary challenge. Surprisingly, provision of Th1EFF cells after establishment of the pathogen niche, even when Th1 cells were provided in large quantities, abrogated protection, Th1EFF cell accumulation and IFN-γ production, and iNOS production by inflammatory monocytes. These findings indicate that protective Th1 immunity is critically dependent on activation of permissive phagocytic host cells by preactivated Th1EFF cells at the time of infection.

Abstract
Skin is one of the most common sites of host immune response against Staphylococcus aureus infection. Here, through a combination of in vitro assays, mouse models, and intravital imaging, we find that S. aureus immune evasion in skin is controlled by a cascade composed of the ArlRS two-component regulatory system and its downstream effector, MgrA. S. aureus lacking either ArlRS or MgrA is less virulent and unable to form correct abscess structure due to de-repression of a giant surface protein, Ebh. These S. aureus mutants also have decreased expression of immune evasion factors (leukocidins, chemotaxis-inhibitory protein of S. aureus [CHIPS], staphylococcal complement inhibitor [SCIN], and nuclease) and are unable to kill neutrophils, block their chemotaxis, degrade neutrophil extracellular traps, and survive direct neutrophil attack. The combination of disrupted abscess structure and reduced immune evasion factors makes S. aureus susceptible to host defenses. ArlRS and MgrA are therefore the main regulators of S. aureus immune evasion and promising treatment targets.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Bacterial infections are common and severe in cirrhosis, but their pathogenesis is poorly understood. Dysfunction of liver macrophages may play a role, but information about their function in cirrhosis is limited. Our aims were to investigate the specific profile and function of liver macrophages in cirrhosis and their contribution to infections. Macrophages from human cirrhotic livers were characterized phenotypically by transcriptome analysis and flow cytometry; function was assessed in vivo by single photon emission computerized tomography in patients with cirrhosis. Serum levels of specific proteins and expression in peripheral monocytes were determined by ELISA and flow cytometry. In vivo phagocytic activity of liver macrophages was measured by spinning disk intravital microscopy in a mouse model of chronic liver injury. APPROACH AND RESULTS Liver macrophages from patients with cirrhosis overexpressed proteins related to immune exhaustion, such as programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1), macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO), and CD163. In vivo phagocytic activity of liver macrophages in patients with cirrhosis was markedly impaired. Monocytes from patients with cirrhosis showed overexpression of PD-L1 that paralleled disease severity, correlated with its serum levels, and was associated with increased risk of infections. Blockade of PD-L1 with anti-PD-L1 antibody caused a shift in macrophage phenotype toward a less immunosuppressive profile, restored liver macrophage in vivo phagocytic activity, and reduced bacterial dissemination. CONCLUSION Liver cirrhosis is characterized by a remarkable impairment of phagocytic function of macrophages associated with an immunosuppressive transcriptome profile. The programmed cell death receptor 1/PD-L1 axis plays a major role in the impaired activity of liver macrophages. PD-L1 blockade reverses the immune suppressive profile and increases antimicrobial activity of liver macrophages in cirrhosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Kupffer cells (KCs) are the resident intravascular phagocyte population of the liver and critical to the capture and killing of bacteria. Calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) inhibitors (CNIs) such as tacrolimus are used to prevent rejection in solid organ transplant recipients. Although their effect on lymphocytes has been studied extensively, there are limited experimental data about if and how CNIs shape innate immunity, and whether this contributes to the higher rates of infection observed in patients taking CNIs. APPROACH AND RESULTS Here, we investigated the impact of tacrolimus treatment on innate immunity and, more specifically, on the capability of Kupffer cells (KCs) to fight infections. Retrospective analysis of data of >2,700 liver transplant recipients showed that taking calcineurin inhibitors such as tacrolimus significantly increased the likelihood of Staphylococcus aureus infection. Using a mouse model of acute methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) bacteremia, most bacteria were sequestered in the liver and we found that bacteria were more likely to disseminate and kill the host in tacrolimus-treated mice. Using imaging, we unveiled the mechanism underlying this observation: the reduced capability of KCs to capture, phagocytose, and destroy bacteria in tacrolimus-treated animals. Furthermore, in a gene expression analysis of infected KCs, the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM1) pathway was the one with the most significant down-regulation after tacrolimus treatment. TREM1 inhibition likewise inhibited KC bacteria capture. TREM1 levels on neutrophils as well as the overall neutrophil response after infection were unaffected by tacrolimus treatment. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that tacrolimus treatment has a significant impact directly on KCs and on TREM1, thereby compromising their capacity to fend off infections.

Abstract
Biofilms that form on implanted medical devices cause recalcitrant infections. The early events enabling contaminating bacteria to evade immune clearance, before a mature biofilm is established, are poorly understood. Live imaging in vitro demonstrated that Staphylococcus aureus sparsely inoculated on an abiotic surface can go undiscovered by human neutrophils, grow, and form aggregates. Small (~50 μm2) aggregates of attached bacteria resisted killing by human neutrophils, resulting in neutrophil lysis and bacterial persistence. In vivo, neutrophil recruitment to a peritoneal implant was spatially heterogenous, with some bacterial aggregates remaining undiscovered by neutrophils after 24 h. Intravital imaging in mouse skin revealed that attached S. aureus aggregates grew and remained undiscovered by neutrophils for up to 3 h. These results suggest a model in which delayed recruitment of neutrophils to an abiotic implant presents a critical window in which bacteria establish a nascent biofilm and acquire tolerance to neutrophil killing.

Abstract
Most multicellular organisms have a major body cavity that harbors immune cells. In primordial species such as purple sea urchins, these cells perform phagocytic functions but are also crucial in repairing injuries. In mammals, the peritoneal cavity contains large numbers of resident GATA6+ macrophages, which may function similarly. However, it is unclear how cavity macrophages suspended in the fluid phase (peritoneal fluid) identify and migrate toward injuries. In this study, we used intravital microscopy to show that cavity macrophages in fluid rapidly form thrombus-like structures in response to injury by means of primordial scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domains. Aggregates of cavity macrophages physically sealed injuries and promoted rapid repair of focal lesions. In iatrogenic surgical situations, these cavity macrophages formed extensive aggregates that promoted the growth of intra-abdominal scar tissue known as peritoneal adhesions.

Abstract
Neutrophils with immunoregulatory properties, also referred to as type-2 neutrophils (N2), myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), or tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), comprise a heterogeneous subset of cells that arise from unknown precursors in response to poorly understood cues. Here, we find that, in several models of liver autoimmunity, pharmacologically induced, autoantigen-specific T regulatory type-1 (TR1) cells and TR1-cell-induced B regulatory (Breg) cells use five immunoregulatory cytokines to coordinately recruit neutrophils into the liver and program their transcriptome to generate regulatory neutrophils. The liver-associated neutrophils from the treated mice, unlike their circulating counterparts or the liver neutrophils of sick mice lacking antigen-specific TR1 cells, are proliferative, can transfer disease protection to immunocompromised hosts engrafted with pathogenic effectors, and blunt antigen-presentation and local autoimmune responses via cathelin-related anti-microbial peptide (CRAMP), a cathelicidin, in a CRAMP-receptor-dependent manner. These results, thus, identify antigen-specific regulatory T cells as drivers of tissue-restricted regulatory neutrophil formation and CRAMP as an effector of regulatory neutrophil-mediated immunoregulation.

Abstract
Neutrophils play a crucial role in the intertwined processes of thrombosis and inflammation. An altered neutrophil phenotype may contribute to inadequate resolution, which is known to be a major pathophysiological contributor of thromboinflammatory conditions such as sickle cell disease (SCD). The endogenous protein annexin A1 (AnxA1) facilitates inflammation resolution via formyl peptide receptors (FPRs). We sought to comprehensively elucidate the functional significance of targeting the neutrophil-dependent AnxA1/FPR2/ALX pathway in SCD. Administration of AnxA1 mimetic peptide AnxA1Ac2-26 ameliorated cerebral thrombotic responses in Sickle transgenic mice via regulation of the FPR2/ALX (a fundamental receptor involved in resolution) pathway. We found direct evidence that neutrophils with SCD phenotype play a key role in contributing to thromboinflammation. In addition, AnxA1Ac2-26 regulated activated SCD neutrophils through protein kinase B (Akt) and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2) to enable resolution. We present compelling conceptual evidence that targeting the AnxA1/FPR2/ALX pathway may provide new therapeutic possibilities against thromboinflammatory conditions such as SCD.

Abstract
Paracoccidioidomycosis is a systemic fungal disease, considered endemic in Latin America. Its etiological agents, fungi of the Paracoccidioides complex, have restricted geographic habitat, conidia as infecting form, and thermo-dimorphic characteristics. Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) are responsible for an important defense response against fungus, releasing Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs), which can wrap and destroy the yeasts. However, it has been described that some pathogens are able to evade from these DNA structures by releasing DNase as an escape mechanism. As different NETs patterns have been identified in PMNs cultures challenged with different isolates of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, the general objective of this study was to identify if different patterns of NETs released by human PMNs challenged with Pb18 (virulent) and Pb265 (avirulent) isolates would be correlated with fungal ability to produce a DNase-like protein. To this end, PMNs from healthy subjects were isolated and challenged in vitro with both fungal isolates. The production, release, and conformation of NETs in response to the fungi were evaluated by Confocal Microscopy, Scanning Microscopy, and NETs Quantification. The identification of fungal DNase production was assessed by DNase TEST Agar, and the relative gene expression for hypothetical proteins was investigated by RT-qPCR, whose genes had been identified in the fungal genome in the GenBank (PADG_11161 and PADG_08285). It was possible to verify the NETs release by PMNs, showing different NETs formation when in contact with different isolates of the fungus. The Pb18 isolate induced the release of looser, larger, and more looking like degraded NETs compared to the Pb265 isolate, which induced the release of denser and more compact NETs. DNase TEST Agar identified the production of a DNase-like protein, showing that only Pb18 showed the capacity to degrade DNA in these plates. Besides that, we were able to identify that both PADG_08528 and PADG_11161 genes were more expressed during interaction with neutrophil by the virulent isolate, being PADG_08528 highly expressed in these cultures, demonstrating that this gene could have a greater contribution to the production of the protein. Thus, we identified that the virulent isolate is inducing more scattered and loose NETs, probably by releasing a DNase-like protein. This factor could be an important escape mechanism used by the fungus to escape the NETs action.

Abstract
Every day, megakaryocytes produce billions of platelets that circulate for several days and eventually are cleared by the liver. The exact removal mechanism, however, remains unclear. Loss of sialic acid residues is thought to feature in the aging and clearance of platelets. Using state-of-the-art spinning disk intravital microscopy to delineate the different compartments and cells of the mouse liver, we observed rapid accumulation of desialylated platelets predominantly on Kupffer cells, with only a few on endothelial cells and none on hepatocytes. Kupffer cell depletion prevented the removal of aged platelets from circulation. Ashwell-Morell receptor (AMR) deficiency alone had little effect on platelet uptake. Macrophage galactose lectin (MGL) together with AMR mediated clearance of desialylated or cold-stored platelets by Kupffer cells. Effective clearance is critical, as mice with an aged platelet population displayed a bleeding phenotype. Our data provide evidence that the MGL of Kupffer cells plays a significant role in the removal of desialylated platelets through a collaboration with the AMR, thereby maintaining a healthy and functional platelet compartment.

Abstract
During respiration, humans breathe in more than 10,000 liters of non-sterile air daily, allowing some pathogens access to alveoli. Interestingly, alveoli outnumber alveolar macrophages (AMs), which favors alveoli devoid of AMs. If AMs, like most tissue macrophages, are sessile, then this numerical advantage would be exploited by pathogens unless neutrophils from the blood stream intervened. However, this would translate to omnipresent persistent inflammation. Developing in vivo real-time intravital imaging of alveoli revealed AMs crawling in and between alveoli using the pores of Kohn. Importantly, these macrophages sensed, chemotaxed, and, with high efficiency, phagocytosed inhaled bacterial pathogens such as P. aeruginosa and S. aureus, cloaking the bacteria from neutrophils. Impairing AM chemotaxis toward bacteria induced superfluous neutrophil recruitment, leading to inappropriate inflammation and injury. In a disease context, influenza A virus infection impaired AM crawling via the type II interferon signaling pathway, and this greatly increased secondary bacterial co-infection.

Abstract
Blood vascular endothelial cells (BECs) control the immune response by regulating blood flow and immune cell recruitment in lymphoid tissues. However, the diversity of BEC and their origins during immune angiogenesis remain unclear. Here we profile transcriptomes of BEC from peripheral lymph nodes and map phenotypes to the vasculature. We identify multiple subsets, including a medullary venous population whose gene signature predicts a selective role in myeloid cell (vs lymphocyte) recruitment to the medulla, confirmed by videomicroscopy. We define five capillary subsets, including a capillary resident precursor (CRP) that displays stem cell and migratory gene signatures, and contributes to homeostatic BEC turnover and to neogenesis of high endothelium after immunization. Cell alignments show retention of developmental programs along trajectories from CRP to mature venous and arterial populations. Our single cell atlas provides a molecular roadmap of the lymph node blood vasculature and defines subset specialization for leukocyte recruitment and vascular homeostasis.

Abstract
Essentially all Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria that gain access to the circulation are plucked out of the bloodstream by the intravascular macrophages of the liver - the Kupffer cells. It is also thought that these bacteria are disseminated via the bloodstream to other organs. Our data show that S. aureus inside Kupffer cells grew and escaped across the mesothelium into the peritoneal cavity and immediately infected GATA-binding factor 6-positive (GATA6+) peritoneal cavity macrophages. These macrophages provided a haven for S. aureus, thereby delaying the neutrophilic response in the peritoneum by 48 hours and allowing dissemination to various peritoneal and retroperitoneal organs including the kidneys. In mice deficient in GATA6+ peritoneal macrophages, neutrophils infiltrated more robustly and reduced S. aureus dissemination. Antibiotics administered i.v. did not prevent dissemination into the peritoneum or to the kidneys, whereas peritoneal administration of vancomycin (particularly liposomal vancomycin with optimized intracellular penetrance capacity) reduced kidney infection and mortality, even when administered 24 hours after infection. These data indicate that GATA6+ macrophages within the peritoneal cavity are a conduit of dissemination for i.v. S. aureus, and changing the route of antibiotic delivery could provide a more effective treatment for patients with peritonitis-associated bacterial sepsis.

Abstract
A hallmark feature of inflammation is the orchestrated recruitment of neutrophils from the bloodstream into inflamed tissue. Although selectins and integrins mediate recruitment in many tissues, they have a minimal role in the lungs and liver. Exploiting an unbiased in vivo functional screen, we identified a lung and liver homing peptide that functionally abrogates neutrophil recruitment to these organs. Using biochemical, genetic, and confocal intravital imaging approaches, we identified dipeptidase-1 (DPEP1) as the target and established its role as a physical adhesion receptor for neutrophil sequestration independent of its enzymatic activity. Importantly, genetic ablation or functional peptide blocking of DPEP1 significantly reduced neutrophil recruitment to the lungs and liver and provided improved survival in models of endotoxemia. Our data establish DPEP1 as a major adhesion receptor on the lung and liver endothelium and identify a therapeutic target for neutrophil-driven inflammatory diseases of the lungs.

Abstract
Abstract
The encapsulated budding yeast Cryptococcus neoformans causes meningitis and pneumonia particularly in immunocompromised individuals including HIV-infected patients. The organism is acquired by the pulmonary route where it disseminates via the bloodstream from the lung to the brain and causes meningitis. Since the lung vasculature is replete with several innate immune cells, it is conceivable that the host would mount an immune response in the pulmonary vasculature to prevent or at least limit the dissemination of C. neoformans to other sites of the body. Hence, we used intravital microscopy to study the host cell immune interactions that occur within the lung vasculature in a living mouse. We found that neutrophils, but not monocytes, interacted with and phagocytosed C. neoformans. Interestingly, additional neutrophils underwent accretion around the phagocytosed C. neoformans, forming a cast of the vasculature. Phagocytosis of C. neoformans was impaired by the presence of cryptococcal capsule, since acapsular strain of C. neoformans were rapidly phagocytosed by neutrophils compared with encapsulated strain. Neutrophil phagocytosis of C. neoformans and subsequent accretion was mediated by complement C3 in both acapsular and encapsulated strains. Mice deficient in C3 complement showed reduced clearance of C. neoformans from the lungs and brain, compared to C3 sufficient mice. These findings highlight the importance of neutrophils in the control of C. neoformans in the pulmonary vasculature and subsequent dissemination to the distal organs including the brain.

Abstract
The impact of T helper (Th) 1 versus Th2 immunity on intracellular infections is attributed to classical versus alternative activation of macrophages leading to resistance or susceptibility. However, observations in multiple infectious settings demonstrate deficiencies in mediators of Th1-Th2 immunity, which have paradoxical or no impact. We report that prior to influencing activation, Th1/Th2 immunity first controls the size of the permissive host cell reservoir. During early Leishmania infection of the skin, IFN-γ- or STAT6-mediated changes in phagocyte activation were counteracted by changes in IFN-γ-mediated recruitment of permissive CCR2+ monocytes. Monocytes were required for early parasite expansion and acquired an alternatively activated phenotype despite the Th1 dermal environment required for their recruitment. Surprisingly, STAT6 did not enhance intracellular parasite proliferation, but rather modulated the size and permissiveness of the monocytic host cell reservoir via regulation of IFN-γ and IL-10. These observations expand our understanding of the Th1-Th2 paradigm during infection.

Abstract
The adaptive immune function of lymph nodes is dependent on constant recirculation of lymphocytes. In this article, we identify neutrophils present in the lymph node at steady state, exhibiting the same capacity for recirculation. In germ-free mice, neutrophils still recirculate through lymph nodes, and in mice cohoused with wild microbiome mice, the level of neutrophils in lymph nodes increases significantly. We found that at steady state, neutrophils enter the lymph node entirely via L-selectin and actively exit via efferent lymphatics via an S1P dependent mechanism. The small population of neutrophils in the lymph node can act as reconnaissance cells to recruit additional neutrophils in the event of bacterial dissemination to the lymph node. Without these reconnaissance cells, there is a delay in neutrophil recruitment to the lymph node and a reduction in swarm formation following Staphylococcus aureus infection. This ability to recruit additional neutrophils by lymph node neutrophils is initiated by LTB4. This study establishes the capacity of neutrophils to recirculate, much like lymphocytes via L-selectin and high endothelial venules in lymph nodes and demonstrates how the presence of neutrophils at steady state fortifies the lymph node in case of an infection disseminating through lymphatics.

Abstract
Chemotaxis is fundamental for leukocyte migration in immunity and inflammation and contributes to the pathogenesis of many human diseases. Although chemokines and various other chemoattractants were initially appreciated as important mediators of acute inflammation, in the past years they have emerged as critical mediators of cell migration during immune surveillance, organ development, and cancer progression. Such advances in our knowledge in chemokine biology have paved the way for the development of specific pharmacological targets with great therapeutic potential. Chemoattractants may belong to different classes, including a complex chemokine system of approximately 50 endogenous molecules that bind to G protein-coupled receptors, which are expressed by a wide variety of cell types. Also, an unknown number of other chemoattractants may be generated by pathogens and damaged/dead cells. Therefore, blocking chemotaxis without causing side effects is an extremely challenging task. In this review, we focus on recent advances in understanding how the chemokine system orchestrates immune cell migration and positioning at the whole organ level in homeostasis, inflammation, and infection.

Abstract
Macrophages play an important role in structural cardiac remodeling and the transition to heart failure following myocardial infarction (MI). Previous research has focused on the impact of blood-derived monocytes on cardiac repair. Here we examined the contribution of resident cavity macrophages located in the pericardial space adjacent to the site of injury. We found that disruption of the pericardial cavity accelerated maladaptive post-MI cardiac remodeling. Gata6+ macrophages in mouse pericardial fluid contributed to the reparative immune response. Following experimental MI, these macrophages invaded the epicardium and lost Gata6 expression but continued to perform anti-fibrotic functions. Loss of this specialized macrophage population enhanced interstitial fibrosis after ischemic injury. Gata6+ macrophages were present in human pericardial fluid, supporting the notion that this reparative function is relevant in human disease. Our findings uncover an immune cardioprotective role for the pericardial tissue compartment and argue for the reevaluation of surgical procedures that remove the pericardium.

Abstract
Destruction of cancer cells by therapeutic antibodies occurs, at least in part, through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), and this can be mediated by various Fc-receptor-expressing immune cells, including neutrophils. However, the mechanism(s) by which neutrophils kill antibody-opsonized cancer cells has not been established. Here, we demonstrate that neutrophils can exert a mode of destruction of cancer cells, which involves antibody-mediated trogocytosis by neutrophils. Intimately associated with this is an active mechanical disruption of the cancer cell plasma membrane, leading to a lytic (i.e., necrotic) type of cancer cell death. Furthermore, this mode of destruction of antibody-opsonized cancer cells by neutrophils is potentiated by CD47-SIRPα checkpoint blockade. Collectively, these findings show that neutrophil ADCC toward cancer cells occurs by a mechanism of cytotoxicity called trogoptosis, which can be further improved by targeting CD47-SIRPα interactions.

Abstract
Recognizing the importance of leukocyte trafficking in inflammation led to some therapeutic breakthroughs. However, many inflammatory pathologies remain without specific therapy. This review discusses leukocytes in the context of sterile inflammation, a process caused by sterile (non-microbial) molecules, comprising damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). DAMPs bind specific receptors to activate inflammation and start a highly optimized sequence of immune cell recruitment of neutrophils and monocytes to initiate effective tissue repair. When DAMPs are cleared, the recruited leukocytes change from a proinflammatory to a reparative program, a switch that is locally supervised by invariant natural killer T cells. In addition, neutrophils exit the inflammatory site and reverse transmigrate back to the bloodstream. Inflammation persists when the program switch or reverse transmigration fails, or when the coordinated leukocyte effort cannot clear the immunostimulatory molecules. The latter causes inappropriate leukocyte activation, a driver of many pathologies associated with poor lifestyle choices. We discuss lifestyle-associated inflammatory diseases and their corresponding immunostimulatory lifestyle-associated molecular patterns (LAMPs) and distinguish them from DAMPs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Mechanical forces contribute to portal hypertension (PHTN) and fibrogenesis. We investigated the mechanisms by which forces are transduced by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) into pressure and matrix changes. METHODS We isolated primary LSECs from mice and induced mechanical stretch with a Flexcell device, to recapitulate the pulsatile forces induced by congestion, and performed microarray and RNA-sequencing analyses to identify gene expression patterns associated with stretch. We also performed studies with C57BL/6 mice (controls), mice with deletion of neutrophil elastase (NE-/-) or peptidyl arginine deiminase type IV (Pad4-/-) (enzymes that formation of neutrophil extracellular traps [NETs]), and mice with LSEC-specific deletion of Notch1 (Notch1iΔEC). We performed partial ligation of the suprahepatic inferior vena cava (pIVCL) to simulate congestive hepatopathy-induced portal hypertension in mice; some mice were given subcutaneous injections of sivelestat or underwent bile-duct ligation. Portal pressure was measured using a digital blood pressure analyzer and we performed intravital imaging of livers of mice. RESULTS Expression of the neutrophil chemoattractant CXCL1 was up-regulated in primary LSECs exposed to mechanical stretch, compared with unexposed cells. Intravital imaging of livers in control mice revealed sinusoidal complexes of neutrophils and platelets and formation of NETs after pIVCL. NE-/- and Pad4-/- mice had lower portal pressure and livers had less fibrin compared with control mice after pIVCL and bile-duct ligation; neutrophil recruitment into sinusoidal lumen of liver might increase portal pressure by promoting sinusoid microthrombi. RNA-sequencing of LSECs identified proteins in mechanosensitive signaling pathways that are altered in response to mechanical stretch, including integrins, Notch1, and calcium signaling pathways. Mechanical stretch of LSECs increased expression of CXCL1 via integrin-dependent activation of transcription factors regulated by Notch and its interaction with the mechanosensitive piezo calcium channel. CONCLUSIONS In studies of LSECs and knockout mice, we identified mechanosensitive angiocrine signals released by LSECs which promote PHTN by recruiting sinusoidal neutrophils and promoting formation of NETs and microthrombi. Strategies to target these pathways might be developed for treatment of PHTN. RNA-sequencing accession number: GSE119547.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cells in humans and serve as first responders to a myriad of host perturbations. Equipped with a plethora of antimicrobial molecules, neutrophils invade sites of inflammation to eradicate pathogens and clear debris. Traditionally, neutrophils were thought to cause collateral tissue damage before dying at the site. However, the presence of neutrophil infiltration into sterile injuries (in the absence of infections) suggests additional roles for these cells. Now, the view of neutrophils as indiscriminate killers seems to be changing as evolving evidence suggests that neutrophils actively orchestrate resolution of inflammation and contribute to tissue repair. Novel concepts include the idea that neutrophils are key to revascularization and subsequently reverse-transmigrate back to the vasculature, actively leaving sites of tissue damage to re-home to functional niches in the lung and bone marrow. This Review scrutinizes the role of neutrophils in tissue damage and repair, discussing recent findings and raising unresolved questions around this intriguing immune cell.

Abstract
Neutrophils promptly accumulate in large numbers at sites of tissue injury. Injuries to the skin or mucosae disrupt barriers against the external environment, and the bactericidal actions of neutrophils are important in preventing microbial invasion. Neutrophils have also been associated with exacerbated inflammation, for example in non-healing wounds or in conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, additional neutrophil functions important for angiogenesis and tissue restoration have been uncovered in models of sterile and ischemic injury, as well as in tumors. These functions are also relevant in healing skin and mucosal wounds, and can be impaired in conditions associated with non-healing wounds, such as diabetes. Here, we discuss our current understanding of neutrophil contributions to healing, and how the latter can be compromised in disease.

Abstract
Many patients with visceral inflammation develop pain and psychiatric comorbidities such as major depressive disorder, worsening the quality of life and increasing the risk of suicide. Here we show that neuroimmune activation in mice with dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis is accompanied by the development of pain and depressive behaviors. Importantly, treatment with the flavonoid luteolin prevented both neuroimmune responses and behavioral abnormalities, suggesting a new potential therapeutic approach for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases. Acute colitis triggers long-term events related to depression Leukocytes infiltrate into brain vasculature Luteolin abolishes leukocyte infiltration and visceral hypersensitivity Luteolin abolishes depression-related behaviors
