Progressive lung fibrosis is a major cause of mortality in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We demonstrate that immune complexes (ICs) activate human monocytes to promote lung fibroblast migration partly via osteopontin (OPN) secretion, which is amplified by autocrine monocyte colony stimulating factor (MCSF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) activity. Bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing demonstrate that elevated OPN expression in SSc lung tissue is enriched in macrophages, partially overlapping with CCL18 expression. Serum OPN is elevated in SSc patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and prognosticates future lung function deterioration in SSc cohorts. Serum OPN levels decrease following tocilizumab (monoclonal anti-IL-6 receptor) treatment, confirming the connection between IL-6 and OPN in SSc patients. Collectively, these data suggest a plausible link between autoantibodies and lung fibrosis progression, where circulating OPN serves as a systemic proxy for IC-driven profibrotic macrophage activity, highlighting its potential as a promising biomarker in SSc ILD. Immune complexes induce osteopontin (OPN) secretion from macrophages via MCSF and IL-6 OPN is expressed predominantly by macrophages in fibrotic interstitial lung disease Circulating OPN levels are elevated and predict disease progression in systemic sclerosis IL-6 receptor blockade reduces levels of circulating OPN in systemic sclerosis patients Gao et al. show that immune complexes induce expression of osteopontin in macrophages/monocytes via IL-6 and MCSF. Osteopontin is expressed by macrophages in fibrotic lung tissue. Serum osteopontin levels predict fibrosis progression in systemic sclerosis patients and is decreased following IL-6 receptor blockade, highlighting its potential as a biomarker.
