OBJECTIVE: In this study, we sought a comprehensive understanding of myeloid cell types driving fibrosis in diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc) skin.
METHODS: We analyzed the transcriptomes of 2,465 myeloid cells from skin biopsy specimens from 12 dcSSc patients and 10 healthy control subjects using single-cell RNA sequencing. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (mo-DCs) were assessed using immunohistochemical staining and immunofluorescence analyses targeting ficolin-1 (FCN-1).
RESULTS: A t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding analysis of single-cell transcriptome data revealed 12 myeloid cell clusters, 9 of which paralleled previously described healthy control macrophage/DC clusters, and 3 of which were dcSSc-specific myeloid cell clusters. One SSc-associated macrophage cluster, highly expressing Fcγ receptor IIIA, was suggested on pseudotime analysis to be derived from normal CCR1+ and MARCO+ macrophages. A second SSc-associated myeloid population highly expressed monocyte markers FCN-1, epiregulin, S100A8, and S100A9, but was closely related to type 2 conventional DCs on pseudotime analysis and identified as mo-DCs. Mo-DCs were associated with more severe skin disease. Proliferating macrophages and plasmacytoid DCs were detected almost exclusively in dcSSc skin, the latter clustering with B cells and apparently derived from lymphoid progenitors.
CONCLUSION: Transcriptional signatures in these and other myeloid populations indicate innate immune system activation, possibly through Toll-like receptors and highly up-regulated chemokines. However, the appearance and activation of myeloid cells varies between patients, indicating potential differences in the underlying pathogenesis and/or temporal disease activity in dcSSc.
