    Abstract The inflammatory eye disease Graves' orbitopathy (GO) is the main complication of autoimmune Graves' disease. In previous studies we have shown that hypoxia plays an important role for progression of GO. Hypoxia can maintain inflammation by attracting inflammatory cells such as macrophages (MQ). Herein, we investigated the interaction of MQ and orbital fibroblasts (OF) in context of inflammation and hypoxia. We detected elevated levels of the hypoxia marker HIF-1α, the MQ marker CD68, and inflammatory cytokines TNFα, CCL2, CCL5, and CCL20 in GO biopsies. Hypoxia stimulated GO tissues to release TNFα, CCL2, and CCL20 as measured by multiplex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Further, TNFα and hypoxia stimulated the expression of HIF-1α, CCL2, CCL5, and CCL20 in OF derived from GO tissues. Immunofluorescence confirmed that TNFα-positive MQ were present in the GO tissues. Thus, interaction of M1-MQ with OF under hypoxia also induced HIF-1α, CCL2, and CCL20 in OF. Inflammatory inhibitors etanercept or dexamethasone prevented the induction of HIF-1α and release of CCL2 and CCL20. Moreover, co-culture of M1-MQ/OF under hypoxia enhanced adipogenic differentiation and adiponectin secretion. Dexamethasone and HIF-1α inhibitor PX-478 reduced this effect. Our findings indicate that GO fat tissues are characterized by an inflammatory and hypoxic milieu where TNFα-positive MQ are present. Hypoxia and interaction of M1-MQ with OF led to enhanced secretion of chemokines, elevated hypoxic signaling, and adipogenesis. In consequence, M1-MQ/OF interaction results in constant inflammation and tissue remodeling. A combination of anti-inflammatory treatment and HIF-1α reduction could be an effective treatment option.

    Abstract Background: Graves' disease (GD) is an autoimmune condition in which autoantibodies to the thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) cause hyperthyroidism. About 50% of GD patients also have Graves' orbitopathy (GO), an intractable disease in which expansion of the orbital contents causes diplopia, proptosis and even blindness. Murine models of GD/GO, developed in different centres, demonstrated significant variation in gut microbiota composition which correlated with TSHR-induced disease heterogeneity. To investigate whether correlation indicates causation, we modified the gut microbiota to determine whether it has a role in thyroid autoimmunity. Female BALB/c mice were treated with either vancomycin, probiotic bacteria, human fecal material transfer (hFMT) from patients with severe GO or ddH2O from birth to immunization with TSHR-A subunit or beta-galactosidase (βgal; age ~ 6 weeks). Incidence and severity of GD (TSHR autoantibodies, thyroid histology, thyroxine level) and GO (orbital fat and muscle histology), lymphocyte phenotype, cytokine profile and gut microbiota were analysed at sacrifice (~ 22 weeks).
    Results: In ddH2O-TSHR mice, 84% had pathological autoantibodies, 67% elevated thyroxine, 77% hyperplastic thyroids and 70% orbital pathology. Firmicutes were increased, and Bacteroidetes reduced relative to ddH2O-βgal; CCL5 was increased. The random forest algorithm at the genus level predicted vancomycin treatment with 100% accuracy but 74% and 70% for hFMT and probiotic, respectively. Vancomycin significantly reduced gut microbiota richness and diversity compared with all other groups; the incidence and severity of both GD and GO also decreased; reduced orbital pathology correlated positively with Akkermansia spp. whilst IL-4 levels increased. Mice receiving hFMT initially inherited their GO donors' microbiota, and the severity of induced GD increased, as did the orbital brown adipose tissue volume in TSHR mice. Furthermore, genus Bacteroides, which is reduced in GD patients, was significantly increased by vancomycin but reduced in hFMT-treated mice. Probiotic treatment significantly increased CD25
    Conclusions: These results strongly support a role for the gut microbiota in TSHR-induced disease. Whilst changes to the gut microbiota have a profound effect on quantifiable GD endocrine and immune factors, the impact on GO cellular changes is more nuanced. The findings have translational potential for novel, improved treatments. Video abstract.

    Abstract A mouse model of Graves' orbitopathy (GO) induced by genetic immunization of human TSH receptor (TSHR) A-subunit encoding plasmid has recently been established. The orbital pathology was characterized by adipogenesis, myopathy and fibrosis. Human orbital fibroblasts (OFs) express TSHR and IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) and are considered to be pathogenic in GO. We established conditions for growing ex vivo cultures of mouse OFs (mOFs) from orbital tissue of animals undergoing GO and controls. Early passage mOFs showed characteristic fibroblast morphology and expressed mesenchymal stem cell markers including a strong expression of CD90.2 and CD40, whereas display of CD73 and all other leucocyte markers was uniformly absent. Importantly, OFs derived from GO mice expressed elevated levels of TSHR and IGF-1R and showed enhanced adipogensis compared with controls. Activation of TSHR in mOFs from GO animals with TSH, monoclonal thyroid-stimulating antibody M22, or stimulation of IGF-1R with IGF-1-induced hyaluronan secretion to significantly elevated levels compared with control animals. Hyaluronan synthase 2 was more abundant in OFs derived from GO mice. In conclusion, mOFs established from GO model recapitulate the pathogenicity of human OFs from GO patients by their increased propensity for adipogenesis and hyaluronan production leading to disease activity. To our knowledge, this is the first report to show mOFs from the preclinical GO model have pathogenic properties that will aid in understanding the molecular and genetic changes during progression to adipogenesis and hyaluronan deposition to provide new insights into GO pathogenesis.
