Neutrophil expressed CD47 regulates CD11b/CD18-dependent neutrophil transepithelial migration in the intestine in vivo.

ABSTRACT: Dysregulated neutrophil (PMN) transmigration across epithelial surfaces (TEpM) significantly contributes to chronic inflammatory diseases, yet mechanisms defining this process remain poorly understood. In the intestine, uncontrolled PMN TEpM is a hallmark of disease flares in ulcerative colitis. Previous in vitro studies directed at identifying molecular determinants that mediate TEpM have shown that plasma membrane proteins including CD47 and CD11b/CD18 play key roles in regulating PMN TEpM across monolayers of intestinal epithelial cells. Here, we show that CD47 modulates PMN TEpM in vivo using an ileal loop assay. Importantly, using novel tissue-specific CD47 knockout mice and in vitro approaches, we report that PMN-expressed, but not epithelial-expressed CD47 plays a major role in regulating PMN TEpM. We show that CD47 associates with CD11b/CD18 in the plasma membrane of PMN, and that loss of CD47 results in impaired CD11b/CD18 activation. In addition, in vitro and in vivo studies using function blocking antibodies support a role of CD47 in regulating CD11b-dependent PMN TEpM and chemotaxis. Taken together, these findings provide new insights for developing approaches to target dysregulated PMN infiltration in the intestine. Moreover, tissue-specific CD47 knockout mice constitute an important new tool to study contributions of cells expressing CD47 to inflammation in vivo.

Sialylation regulates neutrophil transepithelial migration, CD11b/CD18 activation, and intestinal mucosal inflammatory function.

Project description:Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) play a critical role in clearing invading microbes and promoting tissue repair following infection/injury. However, dysregulated PMN trafficking and associated tissue damage is pathognomonic of numerous inflammatory mucosal diseases. The final step in PMN influx into mucosal lined organs (including the lungs, kidneys, skin, and gut) involves transepithelial migration (TEpM). The β2-integrin CD11b/CD18 plays an important role in mediating PMN intestinal trafficking, with recent studies highlighting that terminal fucose and GlcNAc glycans on CD11b/CD18 can be targeted to reduce TEpM. However, the role of the most abundant terminal glycan, sialic acid (Sia), in regulating PMN epithelial influx and mucosal inflammatory function is not well understood. Here we demonstrate that inhibiting sialidase-mediated removal of α2-3-linked Sia from CD11b/CD18 inhibits PMN migration across intestinal epithelium in vitro and in vivo. Sialylation was also found to regulate critical PMN inflammatory effector functions, including degranulation and superoxide release. Finally, we demonstrate that sialidase inhibition reduces bacterial peptide-mediated CD11b/CD18 activation in PMN and blocks downstream intracellular signaling mediated by spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) and p38 MAPK. These findings suggest that sialylated glycans on CD11b/CD18 represent potentially novel targets for ameliorating PMN-mediated tissue destruction in inflammatory mucosal diseases.

Regulation of neutrophil function by selective targeting of glycan epitopes expressed on the integrin CD11b/CD18.

Project description:Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) play a critical role in the innate immune response to invading pathogens. However, dysregulated mucosal trafficking of PMNs and associated epithelial tissue damage is a pathological hallmark of numerous inflammatory conditions including inflammatory bowel disease. The glycoprotein CD11b/CD18 plays a well-described role in regulating PMN transepithelial migration and PMN inflammatory functions. Previous studies have demonstrated that targeting of the N-linked glycan Lewis X on CD11b blocks PMN transepithelial migration (TEpM). Given evidence of glycosylation-dependent regulation of CD11b/CD18 function, we performed MALDI TOF Mass Spectrometry (MS) analyses on CD11b/CD18 purified from human PMNs. Unusual glycan epitopes identified on CD11b/CD18 included high Mannose oligosaccharides recognized by the Galanthus Nivalis lectin and biantennary galactosylated N-glycans recognized by the Phaseolus Vulgaris erythroagglutinin lectin. Importantly, we show that selective targeting of glycans on CD11b with such lectins results in altered intracellular signaling events that inhibit TEpM and differentially affect key PMN inflammatory functions including phagocytosis, superoxide release and apoptosis. Taken together, these data demonstrate that discrete glycan motifs expressed on CD11b/CD18 such as biantennary galactose could represent novel targets for selective manipulation of CD11b function and reduction of PMN-associated tissue damage in chronic inflammatory diseases.

SKAP2 acts downstream of CD11b/CD18 and regulates neutrophil effector function

Project description:Background: The importance of CD11b/CD18 expression in neutrophil effector functions is well known. Beyond KINDLIN3 and TALIN1, which are involved in the induction of the high-affinity binding CD11b/CD18 conformation, the signaling pathways that orchestrate this response remain incompletely understood. Method: We performed an unbiased screening method for protein selection by biotin identification (BioID) and investigated the KINDLIN3 interactome. We used liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry as a powerful analytical tool. Generation of NB4 CD18, KINDLIN3 or SKAP2 knock out neutrophils was achieved using CRISPR-Cas9 technology and the cells were examined for their effector function using flow cytometry, live cell imaging, microscopy, adhesion or antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Results: Among the 325 proteins significantly enriched, we identified Src Kinase-Associated Phosphoprotein2 (SKAP2), a protein involved in actin polymerization and integrin-mediated outside-in signaling. CD18 immunoprecipitation in primary or NB4 neutrophils demonstrated the presence of SKAP2 in the CD11b/CD18 complex at steady state. Under this condition, adhesion to plastic, ICAM-1 or fibronectin was observed in the absence of SKAP2, which could be abrogated by blocking the actin-rearrangements with latrunculin B. Upon stimulation of SKAP2-deficient neutrophils, adhesion to fibronectin was enhanced whereas CD18 clustering was strongly reduced. This response corresponded with significantly impaired CD11b/CD18-dependent NADPH oxidase activity, phagocytosis and cytotoxicity against tumor cells. Conclusion: Our results suggest that SKAP2 has a dual role. It may restrict CD11b/CD18-mediated adhesion only under resting conditions, but its major contribution lies in the regulation of dynamic CD11b/CD18-mediated actin-rearrangements and clustering as required for cellular effector functions of human neutrophils.

Cdc42 regulates neutrophil migration via crosstalk between WASp, CD11b, and microtubules.

Project description:Chemotaxis promotes neutrophil participation in cellular defense by enabling neutrophil migration to infected tissue and is controlled by persistent cell polarization. One long-standing question of neutrophil polarity has been how the pseudopod and the uropod are coordinated. In our previous report, we suggested that Rho GTPase Cdc42 controls neutrophil polarity through CD11b signaling at the uropod, albeit through an unknown mechanism. Here, we show that Cdc42 controls polarity, unexpectedly, via its effector WASp. Cdc42 controls WASp activation and its distant localization to the uropod. At the uropod, WASp regulates the reorganization of CD11b integrin into detergent resistant membrane domains; in turn, CD11b recruits the microtubule end binding protein EB1 to capture and stabilize microtubules at the uropod. This organization is necessary to maintain neutrophil polarity during migration and is critical for neutrophil emigration into inflamed lungs. These results suggest unrecognized mechanism of neutrophil polarity in which WASp mediates long-distance control of the uropod by Cdc42 to maintain a proper balance between the pseudopod and the uropod. Our study reveals a new function for WASp in the control of neutrophil polarity via crosstalk between CD11b and microtubules.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa ExoU augments neutrophil transepithelial migration.

Project description:Excessive neutrophil infiltration of the lungs is a common contributor to immune-related pathology in many pulmonary disease states. In response to pathogenic infection, airway epithelial cells produce hepoxilin A3 (HXA3), initiating neutrophil transepithelial migration. Migrated neutrophils amplify this recruitment by producing a secondary gradient of leukotriene B4 (LTB4). We sought to determine whether this two-step eicosanoid chemoattractant mechanism could be exploited by the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. ExoU, a P. aeruginosa cytotoxin, exhibits phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity in eukaryotic hosts, an enzyme critical for generation of certain eicosanoids. Using in vitro and in vivo models of neutrophil transepithelial migration, we evaluated the impact of ExoU expression on eicosanoid generation and function. We conclude that ExoU, by virtue of its PLA2 activity, augments and compensates for endogenous host neutrophil cPLA2α function, leading to enhanced transepithelial migration. This suggests that ExoU expression in P. aeruginosa can circumvent immune regulation at key signaling checkpoints in the neutrophil, resulting in exacerbated neutrophil recruitment.

LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18) and Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) distinctly regulate neutrophil extravasation through hotspots I and II.

Project description:Precise spatiotemporal regulation of leukocyte extravasation is key for generating an efficient immune response to injury or infection. The integrins LFA-1(CD11a/CD18) and Mac-1(CD11b/CD18) play overlapping roles in neutrophil migration because they bind the same as well as different ligands in response to extracellular signaling. Using two-photon intravital imaging and transmission electron microscopy, we observed the existence of preferred sites for neutrophil entrance into the endothelial cell monolayer and exit from the basement membrane and pericyte sheath during neutrophil extravasation, namely, hotspots I and II, by elucidating distinctive roles of LFA-1 and Mac-1. To penetrate the vascular endothelium, neutrophils must first penetrate the endothelial cell layer through hotspot I (i.e., the point of entry into the endothelium). Neutrophils frequently remain in the space between the endothelial cell layer and the basement membrane for a prolonged period (>20 min). Subsequently, neutrophils penetrate the basement membrane and pericyte sheath at hotspot II, which is the final stage of exiting the vascular endothelium. To further investigate the roles of LFA-1 and Mac-1, we newly generated LFA-1 FRET (CD11a-YFP/CD18-CFP) mice and Mac-1 FRET (CD11b-YFP/CD18-CFP) mice. Using both FRET mice, we were able to determine that LFA-1 and Mac-1 distinctly regulate the neutrophil extravasation cascade. Our data suggest that the vascular endothelium functions as a double-layered barrier in the steps of neutrophil extravasation. We propose that the harmonized regulation of neutrophil penetration through the endothelium via hotspots I and II may be critical for vascular homeostasis during inflammation.

Neutrophil-Derived Cytosolic PLA2? Contributes to Bacterial-Induced Neutrophil Transepithelial Migration.

Project description:Eicosanoids are a group of bioactive lipids that are shown to be important mediators of neutrophilic inflammation; selective targeting of their function confers therapeutic benefit in a number of diseases. Neutrophilic airway diseases, including cystic fibrosis, are characterized by excessive neutrophil infiltration into the airspace. Understanding the role of eicosanoids in this process may reveal novel therapeutic targets. The eicosanoid hepoxilin A3 is a pathogen-elicited epithelial-produced neutrophil chemoattractant that directs transepithelial migration in response to infection. Following hepoxilin A3-driven transepithelial migration, neutrophil chemotaxis is amplified through neutrophil production of a second eicosanoid, leukotriene B4 (LTB4). The rate-limiting step of eicosanoid generation is the liberation of arachidonic acid by phospholipase A2, and the cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2)? isoform has been specifically shown to direct LTB4 synthesis in certain contexts. Whether cPLA2? is directly responsible for neutrophil synthesis of LTB4 in the context of Pseudomonas aeruginosa-induced neutrophil transepithelial migration has not been explored. Human and mouse neutrophil-epithelial cocultures were used to evaluate the role of neutrophil-derived cPLA2? in infection-induced transepithelial signaling by pharmacological and genetic approaches. Primary human airway basal stem cell-derived epithelial cultures and micro-optical coherence tomography, a new imaging modality that captures two- and three-dimensional real-time dynamics of neutrophil transepithelial migration, were applied. Evidence from these studies suggests that cPLA2? expressed by neutrophils, but not epithelial cells, plays a significant role in infection-induced neutrophil transepithelial migration by mediating LTB4 synthesis during migration, which serves to amplify the magnitude of neutrophil recruitment in response to epithelial infection.

Endocervical and Neutrophil Lipoxygenases Coordinate Neutrophil Transepithelial Migration to Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Project description:BackgroundInfection with Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) is characterized by robust neutrophil influx that is insufficient to clear the bacteria. Sustained neutrophilic inflammation contributes to serious clinical sequelae that particularly affect women, including pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility.MethodsWe established a 3-component system using GC, End1 polarized human endocervical cells, and primary human neutrophils to investigate neutrophil transepithelial migration following infection.ResultsNeutrophil migration across endocervical monolayers increased with the infectious dose and required GC-epithelial cell contact. Epithelial protein kinase C, cytosolic phospholipase A2, 12R-lipoxygenase (LOX), and eLOX3 hepoxilin synthase were required for neutrophil transmigration to GC, and migration was abrogated by blocking the MRP2 efflux pump and by adding recombinant soluble epoxide hydrolase. These results are all consistent with epithelial cell production of the neutrophil chemoattractant hepoxilin A3 (HXA3). Neutrophil transmigration was also accompanied by increasing apical concentrations of leukotriene B4 (LTB4). Neutrophil 5-lipoxygenase and active BLT1 receptor were required for apical LTB4 and neutrophil migration.ConclusionsOur data support a model in which GC-endocervical cell contact infection stimulates HXA3 production, driving neutrophil migration that is amplified by neutrophil-derived LTB4. Therapeutic targeting of these pathways could limit inflammation and deleterious clinical sequelae in women with gonorrhea.

SIGLEC-5/14 Inhibits CD11b/CD18 Integrin Activation and Neutrophil-Mediated Tumor Cell Cytotoxicity.

Project description:Since the successful introduction of checkpoint inhibitors targeting the adaptive immune system, monoclonal antibodies inhibiting CD47-SIRPα interaction have shown promise in enhancing anti-tumor treatment efficacy. Apart from SIRPα, neutrophils express a broad repertoire of inhibitory receptors, including several members of the sialic acid-binding receptor (SIGLEC) family. Here, we demonstrate that interaction between tumor cell-expressed sialic acids and SIGLEC-5/14 on neutrophils inhibits antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). We observed that conjugate formation and trogocytosis, both essential processes for neutrophil ADCC, were limited by the sialic acid-SIGLEC-5/14 interaction. During neutrophil-tumor cell conjugate formation, we found that inhibition of the interaction between tumor-expressed sialic acids and SIGLEC-5/14 on neutrophils increased the CD11b/CD18 high affinity conformation. By dynamic acoustic force measurement, the binding between tumor cells and neutrophils was assessed. The interaction between SIGLEC-5/14 and the sialic acids was shown to inhibit the CD11b/CD18-regulated binding between neutrophils and antibody-opsonized tumor cells. Moreover, the interaction between sialic acids and SIGLEC-5/14-consequently hindered trogocytosis and tumor cell killing. In summary, our results provide evidence that the sialic acid-SIGLEC-5/14 interaction is an additional target for innate checkpoint blockade in the tumor microenvironment.

Angiopoietin-1 enhances neutrophil chemotaxis in vitro and migration in vivo through interaction with CD18 and release of CCL4.

Project description:Angiopoietins are a family of growth factors that are ligands for the tyrosine kinase receptor, Tie2. Angiopoietin 1 (Ang-1) is agonistic for Tie2, plays a key role in blood vessel maturation and stability and has been shown to possess anti-inflammatory properties. However, Tie2 expression has been demonstrated on human neutrophils and the observation that neutrophils migrate in response to Ang-1 in vitro has confounded research into its exact role in inflammation as well as its potential use as a therapeutic agent. We used a mouse model of peritoneal neutrophilic inflammation to determine if Ang-1 could stimulate neutrophil migration in vivo. Tie2 expression was demonstrated on mouse neutrophils. In addition, recombinant human Ang-1 induced significant chemotaxis of isolated mouse neutrophils in a Tie2- and CD18-dependent manner. Subsequently, co-immunoprecipitation of Ang-1 and CD18 demonstrated their interaction. Intraperitoneal injection of an engineered angiopoietin-1, MAT.Ang-1, induced significant neutrophil migration into the peritoneum and a significant increase in the levels of CCL4 in peritoneal lavage fluid. Depletion of resident peritoneal macrophages prior to, or concomitant injections of an anti-CCL4 antibody with MAT.Ang-1 resulted in a significant reduction in neutrophil recruitment. These data indicate a pro-inflammatory role for Ang-1 with respect to neutrophil recruitment.
