Phenotypic characterisation of bovine alveolar macrophages reveals two major subsets with differential expression of CD163

Bovine alveolar macrophages (AMs) defend the lungs against pathogens such as Mycobacterium bovis ( M. bovis) , the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis. However, little is known about the surface molecules expressed by bovine AMs and whether there is heterogeneity within the population. The purpos...

Shrnutí:Bovine alveolar macrophages (AMs) defend the lungs against pathogens such as Mycobacterium bovis ( M. bovis) , the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis. However, little is known about the surface molecules expressed by bovine AMs and whether there is heterogeneity within the population. The purpose of this study was to characterise the bovine AM cell surface phenotype using flow cytometry. Bronchoalveolar lavage samples from four different calves were stained with a combination of antibodies against immune cell molecules prior to flow cytometric analysis. To assess the degree of expression, we considered the distribution and relative intensities of stained and unstained cells. We demonstrated that bovine AMs have high expression of CD172a, ADGRE1, CD206, and CD14, moderate expression of CD80, MHC II, CD1b, and CD40, low expression of CX3CR1 and CD86, and little or no expression of CD16 and CD26. Two distinct subsets of bovine AMs were identified based on CD163 expression. Subsequent analysis showed that the CD163 + subset had greater expression of other typical macrophage molecules compared to the CD163 - subset, suggesting that these cells may perform different roles during infection. The characterisation of the uninfected bovine AM phenotype will provide a foundation for the examination of M. bovis- infected AMs.
