Contains fulltext : 311167.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) ; Systemic immune responses caused by chronic hypercholesterolaemia contribute to atherosclerosis initiation, progression and complications(1). However, individuals often change their dietary habits over time(2), and the effects of an alternating high-fat diet (HFD) on atherosclerosis remain unclear. Here, to address this relevant issue, we developed a protocol using atherosclerosis-prone mice to compare an alternating versus continuous HFD while maintaining similar overall exposure periods. We found that an alternating HFD accelerated atherosclerosis in Ldlr(-/-) and Apoe(-/-) mice compared with a continuous HFD. This pro-atherogenic effect of the alternating HFD was also observed in Apoe(-/-)Rag2(-/-) mice lacking T, B and natural killer T cells, ruling out the role of the adaptive immune system in the observed phenotype. Discontinuing the HFD in the alternating HFD group downregulated RUNX1(3), promoting inflammatory signalling in bone marrow myeloid progenitors. After re-exposure to an HFD, these cells produced IL-1β, leading to emergency myelopoiesis and increased neutrophil levels in blood. Neutrophils infiltrated plaques and released neutrophil extracellular traps, exacerbating atherosclerosis. Specific depletion of neutrophils or inhibition of IL-1β pathways abolished emergency myelopoiesis and reversed the pro-atherogenic effects of the alternating HFD. This study highlights the role of IL-1β-dependent neutrophil progenitor reprogramming in accelerated atherosclerosis induced by alternating HFD. |
