Programmed Death-Ligand 1 Expression Potentiates the Immune Modulatory Function Of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

ABSTRACT: Multiple studies have explored the potential role of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) as a mediator of Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) effects in various cancers. However, the role PD-L1 expression in MDSCs on autoimmune disease is still largely unknown.This study was undertaken to whether MDSC expressing PD-L1 have more potent immunoregulatory activity and control autoimmunity more effectively in two murine models of lupus (MRL/lpr mice and Roquin^san/san mice). The populations of MDSC were increased in peripheral blood of lupus patients. The mRNA levels of immunosuppressive molecules were profoundly decreased in MDSCs from lupus patients and mice. Co-culture with splenocytes showed that PD-L1 expressing MDSCs from control mice expand both Treg cells and regulatory B cells more potently. Infusion of PD-L1 expressing MDSCs reduced autoantibody levels and degree of proteinuria and improved renal pathology of two animal models of lupus. Moreover, PD-L1 expressing MDSCs therapy can suppress double negative (CD4-CD8-CD3+) T cells, the major pathogenic immune cells and follicular helper T cells in MRL/lpr mice, and podocyte damage. Our results indicate PD-L1 expressing MDSCs have more potent immunoregualtory activity and ameliorate autoimmunity more profoundly. These findings suggest PD-L1 expressing MDSCs be a promising therapeutic strategy targeting systemic autoimmune diseases.

CD47 Potentiates Inflammatory Response in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Project description:To investigate the role of CD47 in inflammatory responses in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Expression of CD47 and signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and changes in CD47 expression after exposure to SLE serum, healthy control (HC) serum, recombinant interferon (IFN)-α, or tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were examined. Human monocytes and THP1 cells were incubated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an anti-CD47 antibody, or both. TNF-α production was examined. Sera from SLE patients and HCs were screened to detect autoantibodies specific for CD47. Twenty-five SLE patients and sixteen HCs were enrolled. CD47 expression by monocytes from SLE patients was higher than those from HCs (mean fluorescence intensity ± SD: 815.9 ± 269.4 vs. 511.5 ± 199.4, respectively; p < 0.001). CD47 expression by monocytes correlated with SLE disease activity (Spearman's rho = 0.467, p = 0.019). IFN-α but not TNF-α, increased CD47 expression. Exposing monocytes to an anti-CD47 antibody plus LPS increased TNF-α production by 21.0 ± 10.9-fold (compared with 7.3 ± 5.5-fold for LPS alone). Finally, levels of autoantibodies against CD47 were higher in SLE patients than in HCs (21.4 ± 7.1 ng/mL vs. 16.1 ± 3.1 ng/mL, respectively; p = 0.02). Anti-CD47 antibody levels did not correlate with disease activity (Spearman's rho = -0.11, p = 0.759) or CD47 expression on CD14 monocytes (Spearman's rho = 0.079, p = 0.838) in patients. CD47 expression by monocytes is upregulated in SLE and correlates with disease activity. CD47 contributes to augmented inflammatory responses in SLE. Targeting CD47 might be a novel treatment for SLE.

Increased level of myeloid-derived suppressor cells, programmed death receptor ligand 1/programmed death receptor 1, and soluble CD25 in Sokal high risk chronic myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Immunotherapy (eg interferon ?) in combination with tyrosine kinase inhibitors is currently in clinical trials for treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Cancer patients commonly have problems with so called immune escape mechanisms that may hamper immunotherapy. Hence, to study the function of the immune system in CML is of interest. In the present paper we have identified immune escape mechanisms in CML with focus on those that directly hamper T cells since these cells are important to control tumor progression. CML patient samples were investigated for the presence of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), expression of programmed death receptor ligand 1/programmed death receptor 1 (PD-L1/PD-1), arginase 1 and soluble CD25. MDSC levels were increased in samples from Sokal high risk patients (p<0.05) and the cells were present on both CD34 negative and CD34 positive cell populations. Furthermore, expression of the MDSC-associated molecule arginase 1, known to inhibit T cells, was increased in the patients (p?=?0.0079). Myeloid cells upregulated PD-L1 (p<0.05) and the receptor PD-1 was present on T cells. However, PD-L1 blockade did not increase T cell proliferation but upregulated IL-2 secretion. Finally, soluble CD25 was increased in high risk patients (p<0.0001). In conclusion T cells in CML patients may be under the control of different immune escape mechanisms that could hamper the use of immunotherapy in these patients. These escape mechanisms should be monitored in trials to understand their importance and how to overcome the immune suppression.

Deep sequencing reveals a DAP1 regulatory haplotype that potentiates autoimmunity in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Project description:BackgroundSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a clinically heterogeneous autoimmune disease characterized by the development of anti-nuclear antibodies. Susceptibility to SLE is multifactorial, with a combination of genetic and environmental risk factors contributing to disease development. Like other polygenic diseases, a significant proportion of estimated SLE heritability is not accounted for by common disease alleles analyzed by SNP array-based GWASs. Death-associated protein 1 (DAP1) was implicated as a candidate gene in a previous familial linkage study of SLE and rheumatoid arthritis, but the association has not been explored further.ResultsWe perform deep sequencing across the DAP1 genomic segment in 2032 SLE patients, and healthy controls, and discover a low-frequency functional haplotype strongly associated with SLE risk in multiple ethnicities. We find multiple cis-eQTLs embedded in a risk haplotype that progressively downregulates DAP1 transcription in immune cells. Decreased DAP1 transcription results in reduced DAP1 protein in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, monocytes, and lymphoblastoid cell lines, leading to enhanced autophagic flux in immune cells expressing the DAP1 risk haplotype. Patients with DAP1 risk allele exhibit significantly higher autoantibody titers and altered expression of the immune system, autophagy, and apoptosis pathway transcripts, indicating that the DAP1 risk allele mediates enhanced autophagy, leading to the survival of autoreactive lymphocytes and increased autoantibody.ConclusionsWe demonstrate how targeted sequencing captures low-frequency functional risk alleles that are missed by SNP array-based studies. SLE patients with the DAP1 genotype have distinct autoantibody and transcription profiles, supporting the dissection of SLE heterogeneity by genetic analysis.

Murine models of systemic lupus erythematosus.

Project description:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multifactorial autoimmune disorder. The study of diverse mouse models of lupus has provided clues to the etiology of SLE. Spontaneous mouse models of lupus have led to identification of numerous susceptibility loci from which several candidate genes have emerged. Meanwhile, induced models of lupus have provided insight into the role of environmental factors in lupus pathogenesis as well as provided a better understanding of cellular mechanisms involved in the onset and progression of disease. The SLE-like phenotypes present in these models have also served to screen numerous potential SLE therapies. Due to the complex nature of SLE, it is necessary to understand the effect specific targeted therapies have on immune homeostasis. Furthermore, knowledge gained from mouse models will provide novel therapy targets for the treatment of SLE.

Biological therapy in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Project description:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a prototypic inflammatory autoimmune disorder characterized by multisystem involvement and fluctuating disease activity. Symptoms range from rather mild manifestations such as rash or arthritis to life-threatening end-organ manifestations. Despite new and improved therapy having positively impacted the prognosis of SLE, a subgroup of patients do not respond to conventional therapy. Moreover, the risk of fatal outcomes and the damaging side effects of immunosuppressive therapies in SLE call for an improvement in the current therapeutic management. New therapeutic approaches are focused on B-cell targets, T-cell downregulation and costimulatory blockade, cytokine inhibition, and the modulation of complement. Several biological agents have been developed, but this encouraging news is associated with several disappointments in trials and provide a timely moment to reflect on biologic therapy in SLE.
