Macrolides are used to treat various inflammatory diseases owing to their immunomodulatory properties; however, little is known about their precise mechanism of action. In this study, we investigated the functional significance of the expansion of myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC)-like CD11b+Gr-1+ cells in response to the macrolide antibiotic clarithromycin (CAM) in mouse models of shock and post-influenza pneumococcal pneumonia as well as in humans. Intraperitoneal administration of CAM markedly expanded splenic and lung CD11b+Gr-1+ cell populations in naïve mice. Notably, CAM pretreatment enhanced survival in a mouse model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced shock. In addition, adoptive transfer of CAM-treated CD11b+Gr-1+ cells protected mice against LPS-induced lethality via increased IL-10 expression. CAM also improved survival in post-influenza, CAM-resistant pneumococcal pneumonia, with improved lung pathology as well as decreased interferon (IFN)-γ and increased IL-10 levels. Adoptive transfer of CAM-treated CD11b+Gr-1+ cells protected mice from post-influenza pneumococcal pneumonia. Further analysis revealed that the CAM-induced CD11b+Gr-1+ cell expansion was dependent on STAT3-mediated Bv8 production and may be facilitated by the presence of gut commensal microbiota. Lastly, an analysis of peripheral blood obtained from healthy volunteers following oral CAM administration showed a trend toward the expansion of human MDSC-like cells (Lineage−HLA-DR−CD11b+CD33+) with increased arginase 1 mRNA expression. Thus, CAM promoted the expansion of a unique population of immunosuppressive CD11b+Gr-1+ cells essential for the immunomodulatory properties of macrolides. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous population of anti-inflammatory myeloid progenitors that expand in response to acute and chronic inflammation as well as in various diseases, such as autoimmune diseases and cancer. The macrolide antibiotic clarithromycin has immunomodulatory effects in various inflammatory diseases, distinct from its antimicrobial effects, but the mechanism underlying these effects is unknown. The present study demonstrates that clarithromycin treatment induces a marked expansion of CD11b+Gr-1+ MDSC-like cells in the spleen and lungs, sufficient to protect mice from LPS-induced lethality and clarithromycin-resistant bacterial pneumonia via increased IL-10 and decreased IFN-γ levels. Clarithromycin-induced CD11b+Gr-1+ cell expansion was dependent on STAT3-mediated Bv8 production. Moreover, expansion of the immunosuppressive MDSC-like cell population was observed following clarithromycin treatment in humans. Collectively, these results suggest that the immunomodulatory effects of clarithromycin can be attributed to the induction of CD11b+Gr-1+ MDSC-like cells via the STAT3/Bv8 axis.
