Nat Commun. 2023 Sep 18;14(1):5770. 中性粒细胞是人类数量最多的淋巴细胞,主要通过迁移到组织损伤和感染发生部位为机体提供早期的先天性免疫应答。在分子信号的刺激下,中性粒细胞的迁移速度能达5-20 um/min。那么,在迁移过程,中性粒细胞分化和出现表型多样性的机制是什么?它们是如何适应和改变目的环境?本研究通过全基因组CRISPR敲低筛选技术(CRISPRi screen),首先发现mTORC1信号通路是人HL-60分化的类中性细胞系分化向迁移状态转化的关键通路。接着通过定向敲低该通路的基因,定位到ATIC基因。ATIC基因主要通过影响中性粒细胞能量代谢驱动迁移。此外,作者发现中性粒细胞直接的趋化作用和间接的化学动力学行为具有非常强的基因表达相关性。以及黏附依赖和非黏附依赖迁移行为之间存在数百个差异基因。总之,本研究为CRISPRi screen应用于细胞时序行为提供了很好的研究范式。有趣的是,本研究对活细胞示踪图像数据提供了一个定量细胞迁移持久性的算法模型(贝叶斯推断)。

Abstract:
Neutrophils are the most abundant leukocyte in humans and provide a critical early line of defense as part of our innate immune system. We perform a comprehensive, genome-wide assessment of the molecular factors critical to proliferation, differentiation, and cell migration in a neutrophil-like cell line. Through the development of multiple migration screen strategies, we specifically probe directed (chemotaxis), undirected (chemokinesis), and 3D amoeboid cell migration in these fast-moving cells. We identify a role for mTORC1 signaling in cell differentiation, which influences neutrophil abundance, survival, and migratory behavior. Across our individual migration screens, we identify genes involved in adhesion-dependent and adhesion-independent cell migration, protein trafficking, and regulation of the actomyosin cytoskeleton. This genome-wide screening strategy, therefore, provides an invaluable approach to the study of neutrophils and provides a resource that will inform future studies of cell migration in these and other rapidly migrating cells.
