HLA-F and MHC-I open conformers cooperate in a MHC-I antigen cross-presentation pathway.

ABSTRACT: Peptides that are presented by MHC class I (MHC-I) are processed from two potential sources, as follows: newly synthesized endogenous proteins for direct presentation on the surface of most nucleated cells and exogenous proteins for cross-presentation typically by professional APCs. In this study, we present data that implicate the nonclassical HLA-F and open conformers of MHC-I expressed on activated cells in a pathway for the presentation of exogenous proteins by MHC-I. This pathway is distinguished from the conventional endogenous pathway by its independence from TAP and tapasin and its sensitivity to inhibitors of lysosomal enzymes, and further distinguished by its dependence on MHC-I allotype-specific epitope recognition for Ag uptake. Thus, our data from in vitro experiments collectively support a previously unrecognized model of Ag cross-presentation mediated by HLA-F and MHC-I open conformers on activated lymphocytes and monocytes, which may significantly contribute to the regulation of immune system functions and the immune defense.

The mechanism of HLA-DM induced peptide exchange in the MHC class II antigen presentation pathway.

Project description:HLA-DM serves a critical function in the loading and editing of peptides on MHC class II (MHCII) molecules. Recent data showed that the interaction cycle between MHCII molecules and HLA-DM is dependent on the occupancy state of the peptide binding groove. Empty MHCII molecules form stable complexes with HLA-DM, which are disrupted by binding of high-affinity peptide. Interestingly, MHCII molecules with fully engaged peptides cannot interact with HLA-DM, and prior dissociation of the peptide N-terminus from the groove is required for HLA-DM binding. There are significant similarities to the peptide loading process for MHC class I molecules, even though it is executed by a distinct set of proteins in a different cellular compartment.

HLA-F and MHC-I Open Conformers Bind Natural Killer Cell Ig-Like Receptor KIR3DS1.

Project description:Based on previous findings supporting HLA-F as a ligand for KIR3DL2 and KIR2DS4, we investigated the potential for MHC-I open conformers (OCs) as ligands for KIR3DS1 and KIR3DL1 through interactions measured by surface plasmon resonance. These measurements showed physical binding of KIR3DS1 but not KIR3DL1 with HLA-F and other MHC-I OC while also confirming the allotype specific binding of KIR3DL1 with MHC-I peptide complex. Concordant results were obtained with biochemical pull-down from cell lines and biochemical heterodimerization experiments with recombinant proteins. In addition, surface binding of HLA-F and KIR3DS1 to native and activated NK and T cells was coincident with specific expression of the putative ligand or receptor. A functional response of KIR3DS1 was indicated by increased granule exocytosis in activated cells incubated with HLA-F bound to surfaces. The data extend a model for interaction between MHC-I open conformers and activating KIR receptors expressed during an inflammatory response, potentially contributing to communication between the innate and adaptive immune response.

HLA-F and MHC class I open conformers are ligands for NK cell Ig-like receptors.

Project description:Killer Ig-like receptors (KIRs) are innate immune receptors expressed by NK and T cells classically associated with the detection of missing self through loss of their respective MHC ligand. Some KIR specificities for allelic classical class I MHC (MHC-I) have been described, whereas other KIR receptor-ligand relationships, including those associated with nonclassical MHC-I, have yet to be clearly defined. We report in this article that KIR3DL2 and KIR2DS4 and the nonclassical Ag HLA-F, expressed as a free form devoid of peptide, physically and functionally interact. These interactions extend to include classical MHC-I open conformers as ligands, defining new relationships between KIR receptors and MHC-I. The data collectively suggest a broader, previously unrecognized interaction between MHC-I open conformers--including prototypical HLA-F--and KIR receptors, acting in an immunoregulatory capacity centered on the inflammatory response.

MARCH1-mediated ubiquitination of MHC II impacts the MHC I antigen presentation pathway.

Project description:Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) expression and turn-over are regulated via its ubiquitination by the membrane associated RING-CH 1 (MARCH1) E3 ligase. Unexpectedly, we show that MHC II ubiquitination also impacts MHC I. Lack of MARCH1 in B cells and dendritic cells (DCs) resulted in a significant reduction in surface MHC I expression. This decrease was not directly caused by changes in MARCH1 ubiquitination of MHC I but indirectly by altered MHC II trafficking in the absence of its ubiquitination. Deletion of MHC II in March1-/- cells restored normal MHC I surface expression and replacement of wild type MHC II by a variant that could not be ubiquitinated caused a reduction in MHC I expression. Furthermore, these cells displayed inefficient presentation of peptide and protein antigen via MHC I to CD8+ T cells. In summary, we describe an unexpected intersection between MHC I and MHC II such that the surface expression of both molecules are indirectly and directly regulated by MARCH1 ubiquitination, respectively.

Redirecting soluble antigen for MHC class I cross-presentation during phagocytosis.

Project description:Peptides presented by MHC class I molecules are mostly derived from proteins synthesized by the antigen-presenting cell itself, while peptides presented by MHC class II molecules are predominantly from materials acquired by endocytosis. External antigens can also be presented by MHC class I molecules in a process referred to as cross-presentation. Here, we report that mouse dendritic cell (DC) engagement to a phagocytic target alters endocytic processing and inhibits the proteolytic activities. During phagocytosis, endosome maturation is delayed, shows less progression toward the lysosome, and the endocytosed soluble antigen is targeted for MHC class I cross-presentation. The antigen processing in these arrested endosomes is under the control of NAPDH oxidase associated ROS. We also show that cathepsin S is responsible for the generation of the MHC class I epitope. Taken together, our results suggest that in addition to solid structure uptake, DC phagocytosis simultaneously modifies the kinetics of endosomal trafficking and maturation. As a consequence, external soluble antigens are targeted into the MHC class I cross-presentation pathway.

A CD74-dependent MHC class I endolysosomal cross-presentation pathway.

Project description:Immune responses are initiated and primed by dendritic cells (DCs) that cross-present exogenous antigen. The chaperone CD74 (invariant chain) is thought to promote DC priming exclusively in the context of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II. However, we demonstrate here a CD74-dependent MHC class I cross-presentation pathway in DCs that had a major role in the generation of MHC class I-restricted, cytolytic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses to viral protein- and cell-associated antigens. CD74 associated with MHC class I in the endoplasmic reticulum of DCs and mediated the trafficking of MHC class I to endolysosomal compartments for loading with exogenous peptides. We conclude that CD74 has a previously undiscovered physiological function in endolysosomal DC cross-presentation for priming MHC class I-mediated CTL responses.

Dynamics of MHC-I molecules in the antigen processing and presentation pathway.

Project description:The endogenous antigen processing and presentation (APP) is a fundamental pathway found in jawed vertebrates, which allows for a set of epitope peptides sampled from the intracellular proteome to be assembled and displayed on class I proteins of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC-I). Peptide/MHC-I antigens enable different aspects of adaptive immunity to emerge, by providing a basis for recognition of self vs. non-self by T cells and Natural Killer (NK) cells. Pioneering studies of pMHC-I molecules and their higher-order protein complexes with molecular chaperones and membrane receptors have gleaned important insights into the peptide loading and antigen recognition mechanisms. While X-ray and cryoEM structures have provided us with static snapshots of different MHC-I assembly stages, complementary biophysical techniques have revealed that MHC-I molecules are highly mobile on a range of biologically relevant timescales, which bears importance for their assembly, peptide repertoire selection, membrane display and turnover. This review summarizes insights gained from experimental and simulation studies aimed at investigating MHC-I dynamics, and their functional implications.

Rab22a controls MHC-I intracellular trafficking and antigen cross-presentation by dendritic cells.

Project description:Cross-presentation by MHC class I molecules allows the detection of exogenous antigens by CD8+ T lymphocytes. This process is crucial to initiate cytotoxic immune responses against many pathogens (i.e., Toxoplasma gondii) and tumors. To achieve efficient cross-presentation, dendritic cells (DCs) have specialized endocytic pathways; however, the molecular effectors involved are poorly understood. In this work, we identify the small GTPase Rab22a as a key regulator of MHC-I trafficking and antigen cross-presentation by DCs. Our results demonstrate that Rab22a is recruited to DC endosomes and phagosomes, as well as to the vacuole containing T. gondii parasites. The silencing of Rab22a expression did not affect the uptake of exogenous antigens or parasite invasion, but it drastically reduced the intracellular pool and the recycling of MHC-I molecules. The knockdown of Rab22a also hampered the cross-presentation of soluble, particulate and T. gondii-associated antigens, but not the endogenous MHC-I antigen presentation through the classical secretory pathway. Our findings provide compelling evidence that Rab22a plays a central role in the MHC-I endocytic trafficking, which is crucial for efficient cross-presentation by DCs.

Hippo signaling-controlled MHC-I antigen processing and presentation pathway potentiates antitumor immunity

Project description:MHC class I (MHC-I)-mediated tumor antigen processing and presentation (APP) pathway is essential for recruitment and activation of cytotoxic CD8+ T lymphocytes (CD8+ CTLs). However, this pathway is frequently dysregulated in many cancers, thus leading to a failure of immunotherapy. Here, we reported that activation of the tumoral intrinsic Hippo pathway positively correlated with the expression of MHC-I APP genes and the abundance of CD8+ CTLs in mouse tumors and patients. Blocking the Hippo pathway effector YAP/TEAD potently improved antitumor immunity. Mechanistically, the YAP/TEAD complex cooperated with the NuRD complex to repress the NLRC5 transcription. The upregulation of NLRC5 by YAP/TEAD depletion or pharmacological inhibition increased the expression of MHC-I APP genes and enhanced CD8+ CTLmediated killing of cancer cells. Collectively, our results suggest a novel tumorpromoting function of YAP depending on NLRC5 to impair MHC-I APP pathway and provide a rationale for inhibiting YAP activity in immunotherapy for cancer.

Mesoporous silicon microparticles enhance MHC class I cross-antigen presentation by human dendritic cells.

Project description:The mesoporous silicon microparticles (MSMPs) are excellent vehicles for releasing molecules inside the cell. The aim of this work was to use MSMPs to deliver viral specific MHC class I restricted epitopes into human antigen presenting cells (monocyte derived dendritic cells, MDDCs) to facilitate their capture, processing, and presentation to CD8+ (cytotoxic) T lymphocytes. We show for the first time that MSMPs vehiculation of antigenic peptides enhances their MHC class I presentation by human MDDCs to CD8 T lymphocytes.
