Receptors That Inhibit Macrophage Activation: Mechanisms and Signals of Regulation and Tolerance.

ABSTRACT: A variety of receptors perform the function of attenuating or inhibiting activation of cells in which they are expressed. Examples of these kinds of receptors include TIM-3 and PD-1, among others that have been widely studied in cells of lymphoid origin and, though to a lesser degree, in other cell lines. Today, several studies describe the function of these molecules as part of the diverse mechanisms of immune tolerance that exist in the immune system. This review analyzes the function of some of these proteins in monocytes and macrophages and as well as their participation as inhibitory molecules or elements of immunological tolerance that also act in innate defense mechanisms. We chose the receptors TIM-3, PD-1, CD32b, and CD200R because these molecules have distinct functional characteristics that provide examples of the different regulating mechanisms in monocytes and macrophages.

Regulation of macrophage polarization and plasticity by complex activation signals.

Project description:Macrophages are versatile cells of the immune system that play an important role in both advancing and resolving inflammation. Macrophage activation has been described as a continuum, and different stimuli lead to M1, M2, or mixed phenotypes. In addition, macrophages expressing markers associated with both M1 and M2 function are observed in vivo. Using flow cytometry, we examine how macrophage populations respond to combined M1 and M2 activation signals, presented either simultaneously or sequentially. We demonstrate that macrophages exposed to a combination of LPS, IFN-?, IL-4, and IL-13 acquire a mixed activation state, with individual cells expressing both M1 marker CD86 and M2 marker CD206 instead of polarizing to discrete phenotypes. Over time, co-stimulated macrophages lose expression of CD86 and display increased expression of CD206. In addition, we find that exposure to LPS/IFN-? potentiates the subsequent response to IL-4/IL-13, whereas pre-polarization with IL-4/IL-13 inhibits the response to LPS/IFN-?. Mathematical modeling of candidate regulatory networks indicates that a complex inter-dependence of M1- and M2-associated pathways underlies macrophage activation. Specifically, a mutual inhibition motif was not by itself sufficient to reproduce the temporal marker expression data; incoherent feed-forward of M1 activation as well as both inhibition and activation of M2 by M1 were required. Together these results corroborate a continuum model of macrophage activation and demonstrate that phenotypic markers evolve with time and with exposure to complex signals.

CTLA-4 and PD-1 receptors inhibit T-cell activation by distinct mechanisms.

Project description:CTLA-4 and PD-1 are receptors that negatively regulate T-cell activation. Ligation of both CTLA-4 and PD-1 blocked CD3/CD28-mediated upregulation of glucose metabolism and Akt activity, but each accomplished this regulation using separate mechanisms. CTLA-4-mediated inhibition of Akt phosphorylation is sensitive to okadaic acid, providing direct evidence that PP2A plays a prominent role in mediating CTLA-4 suppression of T-cell activation. In contrast, PD-1 signaling inhibits Akt phosphorylation by preventing CD28-mediated activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). The ability of PD-1 to suppress PI3K/AKT activation was dependent upon the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based switch motif located in its cytoplasmic tail, adding further importance to this domain in mediating PD-1 signal transduction. Lastly, PD-1 ligation is more effective in suppressing CD3/CD28-induced changes in the T-cell transcriptional profile, suggesting that differential regulation of PI3K activation by PD-1 and CTLA-4 ligation results in distinct cellular phenotypes. Together, these data suggest that CTLA-4 and PD-1 inhibit T-cell activation through distinct and potentially synergistic mechanisms.

Activation and regulation mechanisms of NOD-like receptors based on structural biology.

Project description:Innate immunity is a primary defense system against microbial infections. Innate immune pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) play pivotal roles in detection of invading pathogens. When pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, invade our bodies, their components are recognized by PRRs as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), activating the innate immune system. Cellular components such as DNA and RNA, acting as damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), also activate innate immunity through PRRs under certain conditions. Activation of PRRs triggers inflammatory responses, interferon-mediated antiviral responses, and the activation of acquired immunity. Research on innate immune receptors is progressing rapidly. A variety of these receptors has been identified, and their regulatory mechanisms have been elucidated. Nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors (NLRs) constitute a major family of intracellular PRRs and are involved in not only combating pathogen invasion but also maintaining normal homeostasis. Some NLRs are known to form multi-protein complexes called inflammasomes, a process that ultimately leads to the production of inflammatory cytokines and induces pyroptosis through the proteolytic cascade. The aberrant activation of NLRs has been found to be associated with autoimmune diseases. Therefore, NLRs are considered targets for drug discovery, such as for antiviral drugs, immunostimulants, antiallergic drugs, and autoimmune disease drugs. This review summarizes our recent understanding of the activation and regulation mechanisms of NLRs, with a particular focus on their structural biology. These include NOD2, neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein (NAIP)/NLRC4, NLR family pyrin domain containing 1 (NLRP1), NLRP3, NLRP6, and NLRP9. NLRs are involved in a variety of diseases, and their detailed activation mechanisms based on structural biology can aid in developing therapeutic agents in the future.

Semaphorin-3C signals through Neuropilin-1 and PlexinD1 receptors to inhibit pathological angiogenesis.

Project description:Retinopathy of prematurity causes visual impairment due to destructive neoangiogenesis after degeneration of the retinal microvasculature. This study was aimed at analyzing whether local delivery of Semaphorin-3C (Sema3C) suppresses pathological retinal angiogenesis. Sema3C exerted potent inhibiting effects in cellular models of angiogenesis. In an endothelial cell xenotransplantation assay, Sema3C acted primarily on immature microvessels by inducing endothelial cell apoptosis. Intravitreal administration of recombinant Sema3C disrupted endothelial tip cell formation and cell-cell contacts, which led to decreased vascular bed expansion and vessel branching in the growing retinal vasculature of newborn mice, while not affecting mature vessels in the adult retina. Sema3C administration strongly inhibited the formation of pathological pre-retinal vascular tufts during oxygen-induced retinopathy. Mechanistically, Sema3C signaled through the receptors Neuropilin-1 and PlexinD1, which were strongly expressed on vascular tufts, induced VE-cadherin internalization, and abrogated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced activation of the kinases AKT, FAK, and p38MAPK. This disrupted endothelial cell junctions, focal adhesions, and cytoskeleton assembly resulted in decreased cell migration and survival. Thus, this study identified Sema3C as a potent and selective inhibitor of pathological retinal angiogenesis.

Mechanisms of transcriptional regulation underlying temporal integration of signals.

Project description:How cells convert the duration of signals into differential adaptation of gene expression is a poorly understood issue. Signal-induced immediate-early gene (IEG) expression couples early signals to late expression of downstream <target> genes. Here we study how kinetic features of the IEG-<target> system allow temporal integration of stimuli in a pancreatic beta cell model of metabolic stimulation. Gene expression profiling revealed that beta cells produce drastically different transcriptional outputs in response to different stimuli durations. Noteworthy, most genes (87%) regulated by a sustained stimulation (4 h) were not regulated by a transient stimulation (1 h followed by 3 h without stimulus). We analyzed the induction kinetics of several previously identified IEGs and <targets>. IEG expression persisted as long as stimulation was maintained, but was rapidly lost upon stimuli removal, abolishing the delayed <target> induction. The molecular mechanisms coupling the duration of stimuli to quantitative <target> transcription were demonstrated for the AP-1 transcription factor. In conclusion, we propose that the network composed of IEGs and their <targets> dynamically functions to convert signal inputs of different durations into quantitative differences in global transcriptional adaptation. These findings provide a novel and more comprehensive view of dynamic gene regulation.

Mechanisms of modal activation of GluA3 receptors.

Project description:AMPA receptors are the major excitatory neurotransmitter receptors in the central nervous system and are involved in numerous neurological disorders. An agonist-binding site is present in each of four subunits that form a functional channel. Binding consists of three steps: docking of agonist to the bilobed ligand binding domain (LBD), closure of the LBD, and increased stability of the closed-lobe conformation through interlobe hydrogen bonding. We describe GluA3 single channel currents activated by nitrowillardiine (NO(2)W) and chlorowillardiine (ClW) in the presence of cyclothiazide, in conjunction with crystal structures of GluA2 and GluA3 LBDs bound to fluorowillardiine (FW), ClW, and NO(2)W. When bound to NO(2)W or ClW, the GluA3 channel opens to three conductance levels with comparable open probabilities and displays modal behavior similar to that obtained with glutamate and FW as agonists (Poon et al., 2010). At lower concentrations, ClW evoked an alternate kinetic behavior, consisting of high open probability in lower conductance states. The structure of ClW bound to GluA3 LBD exhibits a unique partially open hydrogen bonding structure that may be associated with these alternative kinetics. NO(2)W evoked longer open times than seen for other agonists in high and very high modes. The structure ofGluA2 LBD bound to NO(2)W exhibits fully closed lobes with additional interlobe interactions mediated by the nitro group. Beyond differences in efficacy between full and partial agonists, the complexities of the single channel behavior of AMPA receptors may also be associated with small interactions that modify the stability of various degrees of closure.

FcgammaRIIB signals inhibit BLyS signaling and BCR-mediated BLyS receptor up-regulation.

Project description:These studies investigate how interactions between the BCR and FcgammaRIIB affect B lymphocyte stimulator (BLyS) recep-tor expression and signaling. Previous studies showed that BCR ligation up-regulates BLyS binding capacity in mature B cells, reflecting increased BLyS receptor levels. Here we show that FcgammaRIIB coaggregation dampens BCR-induced BLyS receptor up-regulation. This cross-regulation requires BCR and FcgammaRIIB coligation, and optimal action relies on the Src-homology-2 (SH2)-containing inositol 5 phosphase-1 (SHIP1). Subsequent to FcgammaRIIB/BCR coaggregation, the survival promoting actions of BLyS are attenuated, reflecting reduced BLyS receptor signaling capacity in terms of Pim 2 maintenance, noncanonical NF-kappaB activation, and Bcl-xL levels. These findings link the negative regulatory functions of FcgammaRIIB with BLyS-mediated B-cell survival.

Regulation of B1 cell migration by signals through Toll-like receptors.

Project description:Peritoneal B1 cells are known to generate large amounts of antibodies outside their residential site. These antibodies play an important role in the early defense against bacteria and viruses, before the establishment of adaptive immune responses. Although many stimuli, including antigen, lipopolysaccharide, or cytokines, have been shown to activate B1 cells and induce their differentiation into plasma cells, the molecular signals required for their egress from the peritoneal cavity are not understood. We demonstrate here that direct signals through Toll-like receptors (TLRs) induce specific, rapid, and transient down-regulation of integrins and CD9 on B1 cells, which is required for detachment from local matrix and a high velocity movement of cells in response to chemokines. Thus, we revealed an unexpected role for TLRs in governing the interplay between integrins, tetraspanins, and chemokine receptors required for B1 cell egress and, as such, in facilitating appropriate transition from innate to adaptive immune responses.

ITAM-coupled receptors inhibit IFNAR signaling and alter macrophage responses to TLR4 and Listeria monocytogenes.

Project description:ITAM-coupled receptors play an essential role in regulating macrophage activation and function by cross-regulating signaling from heterologous receptors. We investigated mechanisms by which ITAM-associated receptors inhibit type I IFN (IFN-?/?) signaling in primary human macrophages and tested the effects of simultaneous ligation of ITAM-associated receptors and TLR4 on TLR4-induced Jak-STAT signaling that is mediated by autocrine IFN-?. Preligation of ITAM-coupled ?2 integrins and Fc?Rs inhibited proximal signaling by the type I IFN receptor IFNAR. Cross-inhibition of IFNAR signaling by ?2 integrins resulted in decreased Jak1 activation and was mediated by partial downregulation of the IFNAR1 subunit and MAPK-dependent induction of USP18, which blocks the association of Jak1 with IFNAR2. Simultaneous engagement of ITAM-coupled ?2 integrins or Dectin-1 with TLR4 did not affect TLR4-induced direct activation of inflammatory target genes such as TNF or IL6 but abrogated subsequent induction of IFN response genes that is mediated by autocrine IFN-? signaling. Type I IFNs promote macrophage death postinfection by Listeria monocytogenes. Consequently, attenuation of IFN responses by ?2 integrins protected primary human macrophages from L. monocytogenes-induced apoptosis. These results provide a mechanism for cross-inhibition of type I IFN signaling by ITAM-coupled ?2 integrins and demonstrate that ITAM signaling qualitatively modulates macrophage responses to pathogen-associated molecular patterns and pathogens by selectively suppressing IFN responses.
