Lamina propria macrophages (LPMs) spontaneously produce large amounts of anti-inflammatory IL-10 and play a central role in regulation of immune responses against commensal bacteria. MCP-1 is a chemokine that plays an important role in recruitment of monocytes and macrophages to inflamed tissues. We demonstrated that, in addition to IL-10, LPMs produced large amounts of MCP-1, even in a steady state. MCP-1 deficiency caused impaired IL-10 production by LPMs and led to exacerbation of dextran sulfate sodium-induced acute colitis. As an explanation of this impaired IL-10 production by LPMs, we found that LPMs could be separated into two subsets with distinct side-scattered properties, namely LPM1 (CD11b(+)F4/80(+)CD11c(-)SSC(hi)) and LPM2 (CD11b(+)F4/80(+)CD11c(-)SSC(lo)). Unlike LPM1, the LPM2 subset migrated in response to MCP-1 and produced a larger amount of IL-10 in response to commensal bacteria. LPMs isolated from MCP-1-deficient mice produced less IL-10 as a consequence of the lack of the MCP-1-dependent LPM2 population. This imbalanced composition in LPM population may be involved in the susceptibility to DSS-induced colitis in MCP-1-deficient mice. Our results suggest that endogenous MCP-1 contributes to the composition of resident LPM subsets in the intestine. Moreover, MCP-1-dependent LPM2 subset may play an important role in maintenance of gut homeostasis in the steady state, and in the termination of excess inflammatory responses in the intestine, by producing IL-10.
