DHRS9 is a Stable Marker of Human Regulatory Macrophages.

Background: The human regulatory macrophage (Mreg) has emerged as a promising cell type for use as a cell-based adjunct immunosuppressive therapy in solid organ transplant recipients. In this brief report, dehydrogenase/reductase 9 (DHRS9) is identified as a robust marker of human Mregs. Materials and Methods: The cognate antigen of a mouse monoclonal antibody raised against human Mregs was identified as DHRS9 by immunoprecipitation and MALDI-MS sequencing. Expression of DHRS9 within a panel of monocyte-derived macrophages was investigated by quantitative PCR, immunoblotting and flow cytometry. Results: DHRS9 expression discriminated human Mregs from a panel of in vitro derived macrophages in other polarisation states. Likewise, DHRS9 expression distinguished Mregs from a variety of human monocyte-derived tolerogenic antigen-presenting cells in current development as cell-based immunotherapies, including Tol-DC, Rapa-DC, DC-10 and PGE2-induced MDSC. A subpopulation of DHRS9-expressing human splenic macrophages was identified by immunohistochemistry. Expression of DHRS9 was acquired gradually during in vitro development of human Mregs from CD14+ monocytes and was further enhanced by IFN-[gamma] treatment on day 6 of culture. Stimulating Mregs with 100 ng/ml lipopolysaccharide for 24-hours did not extinguish DHRS9 expression. Dhrs9 was not an informative marker of mouse Mregs. Conclusion: DHRS9 is a specific and stable marker of human Mregs.
