Reeves* Dead cells accumulating in the tissues may contribute to chronic inflammation. We examined the cause of impaired apoptotic cell clearance in human and murine lupus. Dead cells accumulated in bone marrow from lupus patients but not from nonautoimmune patients undergoing myeloablation, where they were efficiently removed by macrophages (MF). Impaired apoptotic cell uptake by MF also was seen in mice treated i.p. with pristane (develop lupus) but not mineral oil (MO) (do not develop lupus). The inflammatory response to both pristane and MO rapidly depleted resident (Tim4+) large peritoneal MF. The peritoneal exudate of pristane-treated mice contained mainly Ly6Chi inflammatory monocytes; whereas in MO-treated mice, it consisted predom- inantly of a novel subset of highly phagocytic MF resembling small peritoneal MF (SPM) that expressed CD138+ and the Downloaded from scavenger receptor Marco. Treatment with anti-Marco–neutralizing Abs and the class A scavenger receptor antagonist polyino- sinic acid inhibited phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by CD138+ MF. CD138+ MF expressed IL-10R, CD206, and CCR2 but little TNF-a or CX3CR1. They also expressed high levels of activated CREB, a transcription factor implicated in generating alterna- tively activated MF. Similar cells were identified in the spleen and lung of MO-treated mice and also were induced by LPS. We conclude that highly phagocytic, CD138+ SPM-like cells with an anti-inflammatory phenotype may promote the resolution of inflammation in lupus and infectious diseases. These SPM-like cells are not restricted to the peritoneum and may help clear http://www.jimmunol.org/ apoptotic cells from tissues such as the lung, helping to prevent chronic inflammation.
