Macrophage models of Gaucher disease for evaluating disease pathogenesis and candidate drugs.
Gaucher disease is caused by an inherited deficiency of glucocerebrosidase that manifests with storage of glycolipids in lysosomes,particularly in macrophages. Available cell lines modeling Gaucher disease do not demonstrate lysosomal storage of glycolipids; therefore,we set out to develop two macrophage models of Gaucher disease that exhibit appropriate substrate accumulation. We used these cellular models both to investigate altered macrophage biology in Gaucher disease and to evaluate candidate drugs for its treatment. We generated and characterized monocyte-derived macrophages from 20 patients carrying different Gaucher disease mutations. In addition,we created induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived macrophages from five fibroblast lines taken from patients with type 1 or type 2 Gaucher disease. Macrophages derived from patient monocytes or iPSCs showed reduced glucocerebrosidase activity and increased storage of glucocerebroside and glucosylsphingosine in lysosomes. These macrophages showed efficient phagocytosis of bacteria but reduced production of intracellular reactive oxygen species and impaired chemotaxis. The disease phenotype was reversed with a noninhibitory small-molecule chaperone drug that enhanced glucocerebrosidase activity in the macrophages,reduced glycolipid storage,and normalized chemotaxis and production of reactive oxygen species. Macrophages differentiated from patient monocytes or patient-derived iPSCs provide cellular models that can be used to investigate disease pathogenesis and facilitate drug development.

The decreased susceptibility of Bcr/Abl targets to NK cell-mediated lysis in response to imatinib mesylate involves modulation of NKG2D ligands, GM1 expression, and synapse formation.
Chronic myeloid leukemia is a clonal multilineage myeloproliferative disease of stem cell origin characterized by the presence of the Bcr/Abl oncoprotein,a constitutively active tyrosine kinase. In previous studies,we have provided evidence that Bcr/Abl overexpression in leukemic cells increased their susceptibility to NK-mediated lysis by different mechanisms. In the present study,using UT-7/9 cells,a high level Bcr/Abl transfectant of UT-7 cells,we show that the treatment of Bcr/Abl target by imatinib mesylate (IM),a specific Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor,hampers the formation of the NK/target immunological synapse. The main effect of IM involves an induction of surface GM1 ganglioside on Bcr/Abl transfectants that prevents the redistribution of MHC-related Ag molecules in lipid rafts upon interaction with NK cells. IM also affects cell surface glycosylation of targets,as assessed by binding of specific lectins resulting in the subsequent modulation of their binding to lectin type NK receptor,particularly NKG2D. In addition,we demonstrate that the tyrosine kinase activity repression results in a decrease of MHC-related Ags-A/B and UL-16-binding protein expression on Bcr/Abl transfectants UT-7/9. We show that NKG2D controls the NK-mediated lysis of UT-7/9 cells,and IM treatment inhibits this activating pathway. Taken together,our results show that the high expression of Bcr/Abl in leukemic cells controls the expression of NKG2D receptor ligands and membrane GM1 via a tyrosine kinase-dependent mechanism and that the modulation of these molecules by IM interferes with NK cell recognition and cytolysis of the transfectants.

Abatacept modulates CD80 and CD86 expression and memory formation in human B-cells.
BACKGROUND Cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) limits T-cell activation and is expressed on T-regulatory cells. Human CTLA-4 deficiency results in severe immune dysregulation. Abatacept (CTLA-4 Ig) is approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its mechanism of action is attributed to effects on T-cells. It is known that CTLA-4 modulates the expression of its ligands CD80 and CD86 on antigen presenting cells (APC) by transendocytosis. As B-cells express CD80/CD86 and function as APC,we hypothesize that B-cells are a direct target of abatacept. OBJECTIVES To investigate direct effects of abatacept on human B-lymphocytes in vitro and in RA patients. METHODS The effect of abatacept on healthy donor B-cells' phenotype,activation and CD80/CD86 expression was studied in vitro. Nine abatacept-treated RA patients were studied. Seven of these were followed up to 24 months,and two up to 12 months only and treatment response,immunoglobulins,ACPA,RF concentrations,B-cell phenotype and ACPA-specific switched memory B-cell frequency were assessed. RESULTS B-cell development was unaffected by abatacept. Abatacept treatment resulted in a dose-dependent decrease of CD80/CD86 expression on B-cells in vitro,which was due to dynamin-dependent internalization. RA patients treated with abatacept showed a progressive decrease in plasmablasts and serum IgG. While ACPA-titers only moderately declined,the frequency of ACPA-specific switched memory B-cells significantly decreased. CONCLUSIONS Abatacept directly targets B-cells by reducing CD80/CD86 expression. Impairment of antigen presentation and T-cell activation may result in altered B-cell selection,providing a new therapeutic mechanism and a base for abatacept use in B-cell mediated autoimmunity.

Human NK cell development requires CD56-mediated motility and formation of the developmental synapse.
While distinct stages of natural killer (NK) cell development have been defined,the molecular interactions that shape human NK cell maturation are poorly understood. Here we define intercellular interactions between developing NK cells and stromal cells which,through contact-dependent mechanisms,promote the generation of mature,functional human NK cells from CD34(+) precursors. We show that developing NK cells undergo unique,developmental stage-specific sustained and transient interactions with developmentally supportive stromal cells,and that the relative motility of NK cells increases as they move through development in vitro and ex vivo. These interactions include the formation of a synapse between developing NK cells and stromal cells,which we term the developmental synapse. Finally,we identify a role for CD56 in developmental synapse structure,NK cell motility and NK cell development. Thus,we define the developmental synapse leading to human NK cell functional maturation.

An inflammation loop orchestrated by S100A9 and Calprotectin is critical for development of arthritis
OBJECTIVE: The S100A9 and S100A8 proteins are highly expressed by neutrophils and monocytes and are part of a group of damage-associated molecular pattern molecules that trigger inflammatory responses. Sera and synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) contain high concentrations of S100A8/A9 that correlate with disease activity.backslashnbackslashnMETHODS: In this study,we investigated the importance of S100A9 in RA by using neutralizing antibodies in a murine lipopolysaccharide-synchronized collagen-induced arthritis model. We also used an in vitro model of stimulation of human immune cells to decipher the role played by S100A9 in leukocyte migration and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion.backslashnbackslashnRESULTS: Treatment with anti-S100A9 antibodies improved the clinical score by 50%,diminished immune cell infiltration,reduced inflammatory cytokines,both in serum and in the joints,and preserved bone/collagen integrity. Stimulation of neutrophils with S100A9 protein led to the enhancement of neutrophil transendothelial migration. S100A9 protein also induced the secretion by monocytes of proinflammatory cytokines like TNFα,IL-1β and IL-6,and of chemokines like MIP-1α and MCP-1.backslashnbackslashnCONCLUSION: The effects of anti-S100A9 treatment are likely direct consequences of inhibiting the S100A9-mediated promotion of neutrophil transmigration and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines from monocytes. Collectively,our results show that treatment with anti-S100A9 may inhibit amplification of the immune response and help preserve tissue integrity. Therefore,S100A9 is a promising potential therapeutic target for inflammatory diseases like rheumatoid arthritis for which alternative therapeutic strategies are needed.

Signaling Cascade through DC-ASGPR Induces Transcriptionally Active CREB for IL-10 Induction and Immune Regulation.
The types and magnitude of Ag-specific immune responses can be determined by the functional plasticity of dendritic cells (DCs). However,how DCs display functional plasticity and control host immune responses have not been fully understood. In this study,we report that ligation of DC-asialoglycoprotein receptor (DC-ASGPR),a C-type lectin receptor (CLR) expressed on human DCs,resulted in rapid activation of Syk,followed by PLCgamma2 and PKCdelta engagements. However,different from other Syk-coupled CLRs,including Dectin-1,signaling cascade through DC-ASGPR did not trigger NF-kappaB activation. Instead,it selectively activated MAPK ERK1/2 and JNK. Rapid and prolonged phosphorylation of ERK1/2 led to sequential activation of p90RSK and CREB,which consequently bound to IL10 promoter and initiated cytokine expression. In addition,DC-ASGPR ligation activated Akt,which differentially regulated the activities of GSK-3alpha/beta and beta-catenin and further contributed to IL-10 expression. Our observations demonstrate that DC-ASGPR induces IL-10 expression via an intrinsic signaling pathway,which provides a molecular explanation for DC-ASGPR-mediated programing of DCs to control host immune responses.

Role for glycogen synthase kinase-3 in NK cell cytotoxicity and X-linked lymphoproliferative disease.
NK cells from individuals with X-linked lymphoproliferative (XLP) disease exhibit functional defects when stimulated through the NK receptor,2B4 (CD244). These defects are likely a consequence of aberrant intracellular signaling initiated by mutations of the adaptor molecule SLAM-associated protein. In this report,we show that NK cells from individuals with XLP but not healthy individuals fail to phosphorylate and thereby inactivate glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) following 2B4 stimulation. Lack of GSK-3 phosphorylation prevented the accumulation of the transcriptional coactivator beta-catenin in the cytoplasm and its subsequent translocation to the nucleus. Potential signaling pathways leading from 2B4 stimulation to GSK-3 phosphorylation were also investigated. Ligation of 2B4 resulted in the phosphorylation of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor,Vav-1,and subsequent activation of the GTP-binding protein Rac-1 (but not Ras) and the serine-threonine kinase Raf-1 in healthy but not XLP-derived NK cells. In addition,the activity of MEK-2 (but not MEK-1) was up-regulated,and Erk1/2 was phosphorylated in normal NK cells but not those from an individual with XLP suggesting that these proteins relay SLAM-associated protein-dependent signals from 2B4. Finally,inactivation of GSK-3 using a specific inhibitor of GSK-3beta increased the cytotoxicity and cytokine secretion of both healthy and XLP NK cells. These data indicate that the signaling of 2B4 in NK cells is mediated by GSK-3 and beta-catenin,possibly through a signal transduction pathway that involves Vav-1,Rac-1,Raf-1,MEK-2,and Erk1/2 and that this pathway is aberrant in individuals with XLP.

Cutting edge: murine dendritic cells require IL-15R alpha to prime NK cells.
NK cells protect hosts against viral pathogens and transformed cells,and dendritic cells (DCs) play important roles in activating NK cells. We now find that murine IL-15Ralpha-deficient DCs fail to support NK cell cytolytic activity and elaboration of IFN-gamma,despite the fact that these DCs express normal levels of costimulatory molecules and IL-12. By contrast,IL-15Ralpha expression on NK cells is entirely dispensable for their activation by DCs. In addition,blockade with anti-IL-15Ralpha and anti-IL-2Rbeta but not anti-IL-2Ralpha-specific Abs prevents NK cell activation by wild-type DCs. Finally,presentation of IL-15 by purified IL-15Ralpha/Fc in trans synergizes with IL-12 to support NK cell priming. These findings suggest that murine DCs require IL-15Ralpha to present IL-15 in trans to NK cells during NK cell priming.

CD40 ligand and MHC class II expression are essential for human peripheral B cell tolerance.
Hyper-IgM (HIGM) syndromes are primary immunodeficiencies characterized by defects of class switch recombination and somatic hypermutation. HIGM patients who carry mutations in the CD40-ligand (CD40L) gene expressed by CD4(+) T cells suffer from recurrent infections and often develop autoimmune disorders. To investigate the impact of CD40L-CD40 interactions on human B cell tolerance,we tested by ELISA the reactivity of recombinant antibodies isolated from single B cells from three CD40L-deficient patients. Antibody characteristics and reactivity from CD40L-deficient new emigrant B cells were similar to those from healthy donors,suggesting that CD40L-CD40 interactions do not regulate central B cell tolerance. In contrast,mature naive B cells from CD40L-deficient patients expressed a high proportion of autoreactive antibodies,including antinuclear antibodies. Thus,CD40L-CD40 interactions are essential for peripheral B cell tolerance. In addition,a patient with the bare lymphocyte syndrome who could not express MHC class II molecules failed to counterselect autoreactive mature naive B cells,suggesting that peripheral B cell tolerance also depends on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II-T cell receptor (TCR) interactions. The decreased frequency of MHC class II-restricted CD4(+) regulatory T cells in CD40L-deficient patients suggests that these T cells may mediate peripheral B cell tolerance through CD40L-CD40 and MHC class II-TCR interactions.

Cutting Edge: Integrin α4 Is Required for Regulatory B Cell Control of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis.
The neutralization of integrin α4 (Itga4) is currently used as treatment in multiple sclerosis. Although most studies have focused on its function on lymphocyte migration to the CNS,we have uncovered the importance of Itga4 for the generation of regulatory B cells in peripheral immune organs and their control of pathogenic T cell response and CNS pathology. Our study underscores the importance of looking at the dual role of B cells in CNS autoimmunity and provides important perspectives regarding the efficacy and side effects associated with Itga4 neutralization and other B cell-targeting therapies.
