Macrophage Activation Syndrome (MAS) is a devastating cytokine storm syndrome complicating many inflammatory diseases and characterized by fever, pancytopenia, and systemic inflammation. It is clinically similar to Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), which is caused by viral infection of a host with impaired cellular cytotoxicity. Murine models of MAS and HLH illustrate Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) as the driving stimulus for hemophagocytosis and immunopathology. We sought to understand the inflammatory contributors to a murine model of Toll-like Receptor 9 (TLR9)-induced fulminant MAS. Wild-type (WT), transgenic, and cytokine-inhibited mice were treated with an IL-10 receptor blocking antibody and TLR9 agonist, and parameters of MAS were evaluated. Fulminant MAS was characterized by dramatic elevations in IFN-γ, IL-12, and IL-6. Serum IFN-γ correlated with enhanced IFN-γ production within some hepatic populations, but fewer IFN-γ+ cells. Surprisingly, IFN-γKO mice developed immunopathology and hemophagocytosis comparably to WT mice. However, IFN-γKO mice did not become anemic and had greater numbers of splenic erythroid precursors. IL-12 neutralization phenocopied disease in IFN-γKO mice. Interestingly, Type I interferons contributed to the severity of hypercytokinemia and weight loss, but their absence did not otherwise affect MAS manifestations. These data demonstrate that both fulminant MAS and hemophagocytosis can arise independently of IFN-γ, IL-12, or Type I interferons. They also suggest that IFN-γ-mediated dyserythropoiesis, not hemophagocytosis, is the dominant cause of anemia in fulminant TLR9-MAS. Thus, our data establish a novel mechanism for the acute anemia of inflammation, but suggest that a variety of triggers can result in hemophagocytic disease.
