Neutrophils are vital for antimicrobial defense; however, their role during viral
infection is less clear. Furthermore, the molecular regulation of neutrophil fate
and function at the viral infected sites is largely elusive. Here we report that
BCL6 deficiency in myeloid cells exhibited drastically enhanced host resistance
to severe influenza A virus (IAV) infection. In contrast to the notion that BCL6
functions to suppress innate inflammation, we find that myeloid BCL6 deficiency
diminished lung inflammation without affecting viral loads. Using a series of
Cre-transgenic, reporter, and knockout mouse lines, we demonstrate that BCL6
deficiency in neutrophils, but not in monocytes or lung macrophages, attenuated
host inflammation and morbidity following IAV infection. Mechanistically, BCL6
bound to the neutrophil gene loci involved in cellular apoptosis in cells
specifically at the site of infection. As such, BCL6 disruption resulted in
increased expression of apoptotic genes in neutrophils in the respiratory tract,
but not in the circulation or bone marrow. Consequently, BCL6 deficiency promoted
tissue neutrophil apoptosis. Partial neutrophil depletion led to diminished
pulmonary inflammation and decreased host morbidity. Our results reveal a
previously unappreciated role of BCL6 in modulating neutrophil apoptosis at the
site of infection for the regulation of host disease development following viral
infection. Furthermore, our studies indicate that tissue-specific regulation of
neutrophil survival modulates host inflammation and tissue immunopathology during
acute respiratory viral infection.
