Re-evaluation of IL-10 signaling reveals novel insights on the contribution of the intracellular domain of the IL-10R2 chain.

ABSTRACT: Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that plays a key role in maintaining immune homeostasis. IL-10-mediated responses are triggered upon binding to a heterodimeric receptor complex consisting of IL-10 receptor (IL-10R)1 and IL-10R2. Engagement of the IL-10R complex activates the intracellular kinases Jak1 and Tyk2, but the exact roles of IL-10R2 and IL-10R2-associated signaling via Tyk2 remain unclear. To elucidate the contribution of IL-10R2 and its signaling to IL-10 activity, we re-evaluated IL-10-mediated responses on bone marrow-derived dendritic cells, macrophages and mast cells. By using bone marrow from IL-10R-/- mice it was revealed that IL-10-mediated responses depend on both IL-10R1 and IL-10R2 in all three cell types. On the contrary, bone marrow-derived cells from Tyk2-/- mice showed similar responses to IL-10 as wild-type cells, indicating that signaling via this IL-10R2-associated kinase only plays a limited role. Tyk2 was shown to control the amplitude of STAT3 activation and the up-regulation of downstream SOCS3 expression. SOCS3 up-regulation was found to be cell-type dependent and correlated with the lack of early suppression of LPS-induced TNF-? in dendritic cells. Further investigation of the IL-10R complex revealed that both the extracellular and intracellular domains of IL-10R2 influence the conformation of IL-10R1 and that both domains were required for transducing IL-10 signals. This observation highlights a novel role for the intracellular domain of IL-10R2 in the molecular mechanisms of IL-10R activation.

Project description:The intestinal microflora is critical for normal development, with aberrant colonization increasing the risk for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). In contrast, probiotic bacteria have been shown to decrease its incidence. Multiple pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines have been identified as markers of intestinal inflammation, both in human patients with NEC and in models of immature intestine. Specifically, IL-10 signaling attenuates intestinal responses to gut dysbiosis, and disruption of this pathway exacerbates inflammation in murine models of NEC. However, the effects of probiotics on IL-10 and its signaling pathway, remain poorly defined. Real-time PCR profiling revealed developmental regulation of MIP-2, TNF-?, IL-12, IL-10 and the IL-10R2 subunit of the IL-10 receptor in immature murine colon, while the expression of IL-6 and IL-18 was independent of postnatal age. Enteral administration of the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) down-regulated the expression of TNF-? and MIP-2 and yet failed to alter IL-10 mRNA and protein expression. LGG did however induce mRNA expression of the IL-10R2 subunit of the IL-10 receptor. IL-10 receptor activation has been associated with signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3-dependent induction of members of the suppressors of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family. In 2 week-old mice, LGG also induced STAT3 phosphorylation, increased colonic expression of SOCS-3, and attenuated colonic production of MIP-2 and TNF-?. These LGG-dependent changes in phosphoSTAT3, SOCS3, MIP-2 and TNF-? were all inhibited by antibody-mediated blockade of the IL-10 receptor. Thus LGG decreased baseline proinflammatory cytokine expression in the developing colon through upregulation of IL-10 receptor-mediated signaling, most likely due to the combined induction of phospho-STAT3 and SOCS3. Furthermore, LGG-dependent increases in IL-10R2 were associated with reductions in TNF-?, MIP-2 and disease severity in a murine model of intestinal injury in the immature colon.

Project description:Prediction of protein secondary structure from FTIR spectra usually relies on the absorbance in the amide I-amide II region of the spectrum. It assumes that the absorbance in this spectral region, i.e., roughly 1700-1500 cm-1 is solely arising from amide contributions. Yet, it is accepted that, on the average, about 20% of the absorbance is due to amino acid side chains. The present paper evaluates the contribution of amino acid side chains in this spectral region and the potential to improve secondary structure prediction after correcting for their contribution. We show that the β-sheet content prediction is improved upon subtraction of amino acid side chain contributions in the amide I-amide II spectral range. Improvement is relatively important, for instance, the error of prediction of β-sheet content decreases from 5.42 to 4.97% when evaluated by ascending stepwise regression. Other methods tested such as partial least square regression and support vector machine have also improved accuracy for β-sheet content evaluation. The other structures such as α-helix do not significantly benefit from side chain contribution subtraction, in some cases prediction is even degraded. We show that co-linearity between secondary structure content and amino acid composition is not a main limitation for improving secondary structure prediction. We also show that, even though based on different criteria, secondary structures defined by DSSP and XTLSSTR both arrive at the same conclusion: only the β-sheet structure clearly benefits from side chain subtraction. It must be concluded that side chain contribution subtraction benefit for the evaluation of other secondary structure contents is limited by the very rough description of side chain absorbance which does not take into account the variations related to their environment. The study was performed on a large protein set. To deal with the large number of proteins present, we worked on protein microarrays deposited on BaF2 slides and FTIR spectra were acquired with an imaging system.
