The Orphan G-Protein Coupled Receptor 182 Is a Negative Regulator of Definitive Hematopoiesis through Leukotriene B4 Signaling.

ABSTRACT: The G protein-coupled receptor 182 (GPR182) is an orphan GPCR, the expression of which is enriched in embryonic endothelial cells (ECs). However, the physiological role and molecular mechanism of action of GPR182 are unknown. Here, we show that GPR182 negatively regulates definitive hematopoiesis in zebrafish and mice. In zebrafish, gpr182 expression is enriched in the hemogenic endothelium (HE), and gpr182 ^-/- display an increased expression of HE and hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) marker genes. Notably, we find an increased number of myeloid cells in gpr182 ^-/- compared to wild-type. Further, by time-lapse imaging of zebrafish embryos during the endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition, we find that HE/HSC cell numbers are increased in gpr182 ^-/- compared to wild-type. GPR182 ^-/- mice also exhibit an increased number of myeloid cells compared to wild-type, indicating a conserved role for GPR182 in myelopoiesis. Using cell-based small molecule screening and transcriptomic analyses, we further find that GPR182 regulates the leukotriene B4 (LTB4) biosynthesis pathway. Taken together, these data indicate that GPR182 is a negative regulator of definitive hematopoiesis in zebrafish and mice, and provide further evidence for LTB4 signaling in HSC biology.

Cooperative and redundant signaling of leukotriene B4 and leukotriene D4 in human monocytes.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) and cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs) are important immune mediators, often found concomitantly at sites of inflammation. Although some of the leukotriene-mediated actions are distinctive (e.g., bronchial constriction for cysLTs), many activities such as leukocyte recruitment to tissues and amplification of inflammatory responses are shared by both classes of leukotrienes. OBJECTIVE:We used human monocytes to characterize leukotriene-specific signaling, gene expression signatures, and functions and to identify interactions between LTB(4)- and cysLTs-induced pathways. METHODS:Responsiveness to leukotrienes was assessed using oligonucleotide microarrays, real-time PCR, calcium mobilization, kinase activation, and chemotaxis assays. RESULTS:Human monocytes were found to express mRNA for high- and low-affinity LTB(4) receptors, BLT(1) and BLT(2), but signal predominantly through BLT(1) in response to LTB(4) stimulation as shown using selective agonists, inhibitors, and gene knock down experiments. LTB(4) acting through BLT(1) coupled to G-protein ? inhibitory subunit activated calcium signaling, p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinase, gene expression, and chemotaxis. Twenty-seven genes, including immediate early genes (IEG), transcription factors, cytokines, and membrane receptors were significantly up-regulated by LTB(4). LTB(4) and LTD(4) had similar effects on signaling, gene expression, and chemotaxis indicating redundant cell activation pathways but costimulation with both lipid mediators was additive for many monocyte functions. CONCLUSION:Leukotriene B(4) and LTD(4) display both redundant and cooperative effects on intracellular signaling, gene expression, and chemotaxis in human monocytes. These findings suggest that therapies targeting either leukotriene alone may be less effective than approaches directed at both.

The orphan solute carrier SLC10A7 is a novel negative regulator of intracellular calcium signaling.

Project description:SLC10A7 represents an orphan member of the Solute Carrier Family SLC10. Recently, mutations in the human SLC10A7 gene were associated with skeletal dysplasia, amelogenesis imperfecta, and decreased bone mineral density. However, the exact molecular function of SLC10A7 and the mechanisms underlying these pathologies are still unknown. For this reason, the role of SLC10A7 on intracellular calcium signaling was investigated. SLC10A7 protein expression was negatively correlated with store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) via the plasma membrane. Whereas SLC10A7 knockout HAP1 cells showed significantly increased calcium influx after thapsigargin, ionomycin and ATP/carbachol treatment, SLC10A7 overexpression reduced this calcium influx. Intracellular Ca2+ levels were higher in the SLC10A7 knockout cells and lower in the SLC10A7-overexpressing cells. The SLC10A7 protein co-localized with STIM1, Orai1, and SERCA2. Most of the previously described human SLC10A7 mutations had no effect on the calcium influx and thus were confirmed to be functionally inactive. In the present study, SLC10A7 was established as a novel negative regulator of intracellular calcium signaling that most likely acts via STIM1, Orai1 and/or SERCA2 inhibition. Based on this, SLC10A7 is suggested to be named as negative regulator of intracellular calcium signaling (in short: RCAS).

GPR17 is a negative regulator of the cysteinyl leukotriene 1 receptor response to leukotriene D4.

Project description:The cysteinyl leukotrienes (cys-LTs) are proinflammatory lipid mediators acting on the type 1 cys-LT receptor (CysLT(1)R) to mediate smooth muscle constriction and vascular permeability. GPR17, a G protein-coupled orphan receptor with homology to the P2Y and cys-LT receptors, failed to mediate calcium flux in response to leukotriene (LT) D(4) with stable transfectants. However, in stable cotransfections of 6xHis-tagged GPR17 with Myc-tagged CysLT(1)R, the robust CysLT(1)R-mediated calcium response to LTD(4) was abolished. The membrane expression of the CysLT(1)R analyzed by FACS with anti-Myc Ab was not reduced by the cotransfection, yet both LTD(4)-elicited ERK phosphorylation and the specific binding of [(3)H]LTD(4) to microsomal membranes were fully inhibited. CysLT(1)R and GPR17 expressed in transfected cells were coimmunoprecipitated and identified by Western blots, and confocal immunofluorescence microscopy revealed that GPR17 and CysLT(1)R colocalize on the cell surface of human peripheral blood monocytes. Lentiviral knockdown of GPR17 in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMPhis) increased both the membrane expression of CysLT(1)R protein by FACS analysis and the LTD(4)-elicited calcium flux in a dose-dependent manner as compared with control BMMPhis, indicating a negative regulatory function of GPR17 for CysLT(1)R in a primary cell. In IgE-dependent passive cutaneous anaphylaxis, GPR17-deficient mice showed a marked and significant increase in vascular permeability as compared with WT littermates, and this vascular leak was significantly blocked by pretreatment of the mice with the CysLT(1)R antagonist, MK-571. Taken together, our findings suggest that GPR17 is a ligand-independent, constitutive negative regulator for the CysLT(1)R that suppresses CysLT(1)R-mediated function at the cell membrane.

Leukotriene A4 Hydrolase Activation and Leukotriene B4 Production by Eosinophils in Severe Asthma.

Project description:Asthma is associated with the overproduction of leukotrienes (LTs), including LTB4. Patients with severe asthma can be highly responsive to 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibition, which blocks production of both the cysteinyl LTs and LTB4. Production of LTB4 has traditionally been ascribed to neutrophils, mononuclear phagocytes, and epithelial cells, and acts as a chemoattractant for inflammatory cells associated with asthma. The source of LTB4 is unclear, especially in eosinophilic asthma. We speculated that the benefit of 5-LO inhibition could be mediated in part by inhibition of eosinophil-derived LTB4. LTB4 concentrations were assayed in BAL fluid from patients with severe asthma characterized by isolated neutrophilic, eosinophilic, and paucigranulocytic inflammation. Expression of LTA4 hydrolase (LTA4H) by airway eosinophils was determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Subsequently, peripheral blood eosinophils were activated and secreted LTB4 was quantified by enzyme immunoassay. Blood eosinophil LTA4H expression was determined by flow cytometry, qPCR, and IHC. LTB4 concentrations were elevated in BAL fluid from patients with severe asthma, including those with isolated eosinophilic inflammation, and these eosinophils displayed LTA4H via IHC. LTA4H expression by blood eosinophils was confirmed by flow cytometry, IHC, and qPCR. Robust LTB4 production by blood eosinophils was observed in response to some, but not all, stimuli. We demonstrated that eosinophils express LTA4H transcripts and protein, and can be stimulated to secrete LTB4. We speculate that in many patients with asthma, eosinophil-derived LTB4 is increased, and this may contribute to the efficacy of 5-LO inhibition.

Structural basis of leukotriene B4 receptor 1 activation.

Project description:Leukotriene B4 receptor 1 (BLT1) plays crucial roles in the acute inflammatory responses and is a valuable target for anti-inflammation treatment, however, the mechanism by which leukotriene B4 (LTB4) activates receptor remains unclear. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of the LTB4 -bound human BLT1 in complex with a Gi protein in an active conformation at resolution of 2.91 Å. In combination of molecule dynamics (MD) simulation, docking and site-directed mutagenesis, our structure reveals that a hydrogen-bond network of water molecules and key polar residues is the key molecular determinant for LTB4 binding. We also find that the displacement of residues M1013.36 and I2717.39 to the center of receptor, which unlock the ion lock of the lower part of pocket, is the key mechanism of receptor activation. In addition, we reveal a binding site of phosphatidylinositol (PI) and discover that the widely open ligand binding pocket may contribute the lack of specificity and efficacy for current BLT1-targeting drug design. Taken together, our structural analysis provides a scaffold for understanding BLT1 activation and a rational basis for designing anti-leukotriene drugs.

Neutrophil-derived leukotriene B4 is required for inflammatory arthritis.

Project description:Neutrophils serve as a vanguard of the acute innate immune response to invading pathogens. Neutrophils are also abundant at sites of autoimmune inflammation, such as the rheumatoid joint, although their pathophysiologic role is incompletely defined and relevant effector functions remain obscure. Using genetic and pharmacologic approaches in the K/BxN serum transfer model of arthritis, we find that autoantibody-driven erosive synovitis is critically reliant on the generation of leukotrienes, and more specifically on leukotriene B4 (LTB4), for disease induction as well as perpetuation. Pursuing the cellular source for this mediator, we find via reconstitution experiments that mast cells are a dispensable source of leukotrienes, whereas arthritis susceptibility can be restored to leukotriene-deficient mice by intravenous administration of wild-type neutrophils. These experiments demonstrate a nonredundant role for LTB4 in inflammatory arthritis and define a neutrophil mediator involved in orchestrating the synovial eruption.

Leukotriene B4 amplifies eosinophil accumulation in response to nematodes.

Project description:Eosinophil accumulation is a defining feature of the immune response to parasitic worm infection. Tissue-resident cells, such as epithelial cells, are thought to initiate eosinophil recruitment. However, direct recognition of worms by eosinophils has not been explored as a mechanism for amplifying eosinophil accumulation. Here, we report that eosinophils rapidly migrate toward diverse nematode species in three-dimensional culture. These include the mammalian parasite Nippostrongylus brasiliensis and the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Surprisingly, collective migration toward worms requires paracrine leukotriene B4 signaling between eosinophils. In contrast, neutrophils show a minimal response to nematodes, yet are able to undergo robust leukotriene-dependent migration toward IgG-coated beads. We further demonstrate that eosinophils accumulate around C. elegans in the lungs of mice. This response is not dependent on bacterial products, CCR3, or complement activation. However, mice deficient in leukotriene signaling show markedly attenuated eosinophil accumulation after injection of C. elegans or N. brasiliensis. Our findings establish that nematode-derived signals can directly induce leukotriene production by eosinophils and that leukotriene signaling is a major contributor to nematode-induced eosinophil accumulation in the lung. The similarity of the eosinophil responses to diverse nematode species suggests that conserved features of nematodes are recognized during parasite infection.
