Show abstract
Pro-inflammatory activation of macrophages in metabolic tissues is critically important in induction of obesity-induced metaflammation. Here, we demonstrate that the soluble mannose receptor (sMR) plays a direct, functional role in both macrophage activation and metaflammation. We show that sMR binds CD45 on macrophages and inhibits its phosphatase activity, leading to a Src/Akt/NF-{kappa}B-mediated cellular reprogramming towards an inflammatory phenotype both in vitro and in vivo. Remarkably, increased serum sMR levels were observed in obese mice and humans and directly correlated with body weight. Additionally, MR deficiency lowers pro-inflammatory macrophages in metabolic tissues and protects against hepatic steatosis and whole-body metabolic dysfunctions in high-fat diet-induced obese mice. Conversely, administration of sMR in lean mice increases serum pro-inflammatory cytokines, activates tissue macrophages and promotes insulin resistance. Altogether, our results reveal sMR as novel regulator of pro-inflammatory macrophage activation which could constitute a new therapeutic target for metaflammation and other hyperinflammatory diseases.
