Interrogation of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 2 function in vivo reveals a prominent role in the recovery from IgE and IgG-mediated anaphylaxis with minimal effect on its onset.

ABSTRACT: Autocrine stimulation of S1PR2, a receptor for the lipid mediator sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), has been implicated in mast cell degranulation to IgE/antigen (Ag) although, paradoxically, its ligand cannot trigger substantial degranulation. Additionally, the in vivo role of S1PR2 in the overall allergic responses is unclear since S1PR2 was reported to be required for the onset of systemic anaphylaxis by IgE/Ag but, in apparent contradiction, also for the recovery from histamine-induced anaphylaxis in a mast cell independent manner. Here, we sought to clarify the role of S1PR2 in mast cell degranulation and in IgE and IgG-mediated anaphylaxis. Lack of S1PR2 reduced IgE/Ag-induced degranulation in in vitro experiments with mucosal mast cells, but had no effect on connective tissue type mast cells. This latter response correlated with a lack of involvement of S1PR2 in the onset of non-lethal IgE/Ag-mediated systemic and cutaneous anaphylaxis. However, S1pr2(-/-) mice were slow to recover (or did not recover) from Fc?RI-mediated anaphylaxis, an outcome that mirrored their known impairment in histamine clearance due to defective vascular tone. A minor role for S1PR2 in mast cell degranulation was uncovered upon engagement of low affinity receptors for IgG and in the onset of IgG-mediated anaphylaxis. Our findings show that S1PR2 is dispensable for initiating IgE/Ag-mediated connective tissue mast cell degranulation and anaphylaxis, but it is required for normal recovery from anaphylaxis.

Project description:Crosslinking of receptor-bound Immunoglobulin E (IgE) triggers immediate hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis. Blocking the interaction of IgE with its high-affinity receptor, Fc?RI, on mast cells and basophils is an attractive strategy for the treatment of allergies. This approach has seen clinical success using the anti-IgE monoclonal antibody, omalizumab. We recently designed and characterized a novel Fc?RI-mimetic peptide (PepE) which contains the two key Fc?RI ?-chain receptor loops known to interact with the ?-heavy chain of IgE, C'-E and B-C, with an optimized linker for joining them. PepE has high specificity and affinity for IgE, blocks IgE binding to Fc?RI and prevents IgE-induced mediator release from RBL2H3 cells. We have now investigated the biological effects of this peptide in vivo using a line of mice (BALB/c Il4raF709) very sensitive to IgE-mediated systemic anaphylaxis. IgE-deficient (IgE-/-) Il4raF709 mice were passively sensitized with the anti-DNP IgE monoclonal antibody (SPE-7) and subsequently challenged i.v. with DNP-BSA. Mice receiving a single dose of PepE prior to sensitization with SPE-7 IgE were fully protected from anaphylaxis while vehicle control-treated mice displayed strong reactions with significant core body temperature drops and elevated levels of mouse mast cell protease-1 (mMCP-1) in the serum. However, PepE had no effect on IgE-mediated anaphylaxis if given after IgE administration in IgE-/- mice, suggesting that PepE can block binding of free IgE to Fc?RI but cannot compete with the receptor for already bound IgE in vivo. A single dose of PepE treatment did not protect IgE sufficient mice from IgE mediated anaphylaxis. However, a 3 week long course of PepE treatment protected IgE sufficient Il4raF709 mice from body temperature drops and elevation of serum mMCP-1. Our findings establish the potential of this type of structure for blocking IgE binding to mast cells in vivo and suggest that related peptides might have the potential to attenuate clinical allergic reactions.
