CIP2A Promotes T-Cell Activation and Immune Response to Listeria monocytogenes Infection.

ABSTRACT: The oncoprotein Cancerous Inhibitor of Protein Phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) is overexpressed in most malignancies and is an obvious candidate target protein for future cancer therapies. However, the physiological importance of CIP2A-mediated PP2A inhibition is largely unknown. As PP2A regulates immune responses, we investigated the role of CIP2A in normal immune system development and during immune response in vivo. We show that CIP2A-deficient mice (CIP2AHOZ) present a normal immune system development and function in unchallenged conditions. However when challenged with Listeria monocytogenes, CIP2AHOZ mice display an impaired adaptive immune response that is combined with decreased frequency of both CD4+ T-cells and CD8+ effector T-cells. Importantly, the cell autonomous effect of CIP2A deficiency for T-cell activation was confirmed. Induction of CIP2A expression during T-cell activation was dependent on Zap70 activity. Thus, we reveal CIP2A as a hitherto unrecognized mediator of T-cell activation during adaptive immune response. These results also reveal CIP2AHOZ as a possible novel mouse model for studying the role of PP2A activity in immune regulation. On the other hand, the results also indicate that CIP2A targeting cancer therapies would not cause serious immunological side-effects.

Project description:The interaction of Listeria monocytogenes with endothelial cells represents a crucial step in the pathogenesis of listeriosis. Incubation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) with wild-type L. monocytogenes (EGD) provoked immediate strong NO synthesis, attributable to listerial presentation of listeriolysin O (LLO), as the NO release was missed upon employment of a deletion mutant for LLO (EGD hly mutant) and was reproduced by purified LLO. Studies of conditions lacking extracellular Ca(2+) suggested LLO-elicited Ca(2+) flux as the underlying mechanism. In addition, HUVEC incubation with EGD turned out to be a potent stimulus for sustained (>12-h) upregulation of proinflammatory cytokine generation (interleukin 6 [IL-6], IL-8, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor). Use of deletion mutants for LLO (EGD hly mutant), listerial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (EGD plcA mutant), broad-spectrum phospholipase C (EGD plcB mutant) and internalin B (EGD inlB mutant), as well as purified LLO, identified LLO as largely responsible for the cytokine response. Endothelial cells responded with diacylglycerole and ceramide generation as well as nuclear translocation of NF-kappa B to the stimulation with the LLO-producing strains EGD and Listeria innocua. The endothelial PC-phospholipase C inhibitor tricyclodecan-9-yl-xanthogenate as well as two independent inhibitors of NF-kappa B activation, pyrolidine dithiocarbamate and caffeic acid phenethyl ester, suppressed both the NF-kappa B translocation and the upregulation of cytokine synthesis. We conclude that L. monocytogenes is a potent stimulus of NO release and sustained upregulation of proinflammatory cytokine synthesis in human endothelial cells, both events being largely attributable to LLO presentation. LLO-induced transmembrane Ca(2+) flux as well as a sequence of endothelial phospholipase activation and the appearance of diacylglycerole, ceramide, and NF-kappa B are suggested as underlying host signaling events. These endothelial responses to L. monocytogenes may well contribute to the pathogenic sequelae in severe listerial infection and sepsis.
