BackgroundDespite an increasing understanding of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) pathogenesis, the mechanisms of diverse cell populations in the human lung remain unknown. Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq), we can reveal changes within individual cell populations in COPD that are important for disease pathogenesis and characteristics. MethodsWe performed scRNA-Seq on lung tissue obtained from donors with non-COPD and mild-to-moderate COPD to identify disease-related genes within different cell types. We testified the findings using qRT−PCR, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence and Western blotting from 25 additional subjects and RAW 264.7 macrophages. Targeting ferroptosis with the ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1, iron chelator deferoxamine or HO-1 inhibitor zinc protoporphyrin was administered in the experimental cigarette smoke COPD mouse model.ResultsWe identified two populations of alveolar macrophages (AMs) in the human lung that were dysregulated in COPD patients. We discovered that M2-like AMs modulate susceptibility to ferroptosis by disrupting lipid and iron homeostasis both in vivo and in vitro. The discrepancy in sensitivity to ferroptosis can be determined and regulated by HO-1. In contrast, M1-like AMs showed the ability to attenuate oxidative stress and exert resistance to ferroptosis. In addition, the expression of genes within M2-like AMs is also involved in defects in phagocytosis and lysosome distortion. This ferroptotic phenotype was ameliorated by antiferroptotic compounds, iron chelators and HO-1 inhibitors. During COPD, the accumulation of lipid peroxidation drives ferroptosis-sensitive M2-like AMs, while M1-like AMs show characteristics of ferroptosis resistance. Ferroptotic M2 AMs lose their anti-inflammatory and repair functions but provoke inflammatory responses, resulting in consistent inflammation and tissue damage in the presence of M1 AMs in COPD. ConclusionAppropriate interventions in ferroptosis can reduce the occurrence of infections and acute onset, and delay the COPD process. |
