TNFAIP3-DEPTOR complex regulates inflammasome secretion through autophagy in ankylosing spondylitis monocytes.

ABSTRACT: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease with severe inflammatory symptoms in the axial skeleton. The cause of ankylosing spondylitis is unknown. TNFAIP3, also named A20, uses ubiquitin-related functions to regulate immune activation, deficiency of which is highly related to autoimmune disease. However, the role of TNFAIP3 in human AS has not been reported. Our objective was to study the role and mechanism of TNFAIP3 in ankylosing spondylitis. TNFAIP3 expression on different types of immunocytes from AS peripheral blood was measured by flow cytometry. In vitro, monocytes were transfected with a TNFAIP3 shRNA lentivirus, and IL6 and IL1B activation was tested using real-time PCR and ELISA. The novel interaction complex TNFAIP3-DEPTOR was determined through GST pull-down, yeast two-hybrid system, confocal microscopy, and co-immunoprecipitation. Transmission electron microscopy, the RFP-GFP-LC3 adenovirus, and LC3 expression were used for autophagy detection. Here, we show that TNFAIP3 expression in AS peripheral blood non-classical monocytes was decreased. In normal monocytes, TNFAIP3 induced autophagy, which restricted inflammasome activation to the early stage of LPS stimulation. Zinc-finger domains of TNFAIP3 were able to interact and stabilize DEPTOR. TNFAIP3 and DEPTOR together rapidly promoted autophagy after LPS treatment to prevent NLRP3 inflammasome formation. Finally, TNFAIP3 and DEPTOR deficiency in AS non-classical monocytes facilitated inflammasome activation. Our study indicates that TNFAIP3-DEPTOR complex-induced early-onset autophagy is vital for immune inhibition in autoimmune disease.

Project description:We have compared synovial biopsies from ankylosing spondylitis and undifferentiated spondylitis patients with healthy controls and osteoarthritis patients Objective: In spondylarthropies, whole-genome gene expression profiling studies have been limited to peripheral blood to date. By undertaking a study in knee synovial biopsies from spondylarthropy (SpA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients we aimed to identified joint-specific candidate genes and pathways. These pathways may mediate systemic inflammation driven joint damaging processes and more specifically, the osteoproliferation that is characteristic of these conditions. Methods: RNA was extracted from six seronegative SpA, two AS, three osteoarthritis (OA) and four normal control knee synovial biopsies. Whole genome expression profiling was undertaken using the Illumina DASL system, which assays 24000 cDNA probes. Differentially expressed candidate genes were then validated using quantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry. Results: 416 differentially expressed genes were identified that clearly delineated between AS/SpA and control groups. Pathway analysis showed altered gene-expression in oxidoreductase activity, osteoblast activity, B-cell associated, matrix catabolic, and metabolic pathways. The inflammatory mediator, MMP3, was strongly upregulated in AS/SpA samples and the Wnt pathway inhibitors DKK3 and Kremen1 were downregulated. Conclusion: Pathways mediating both systemic inflammation as well as local tissue changes were identified. This suggests initial systemic inflammation in spondylarthropies transfers to and persists in the local joint environment, subsequently mediating changes in genes directly involved in the destructive tissue remodelling. Fifteen knee synovial biopsy tissue samples consisting of six seronegative spondyloarthropy (SpA), two ankylosing spondylitis (AS), three osteoarthritis (OA) and four normal control biopsies were obtained from the Synovial Tissue Bank at the Repatriation General Hospital in Adelaide, South Australia with the appropriate ethical approval (Supplementary Table 1). All patients provided informed written consent.
