An endosomal toll-like receptor inhibitor drug with therapeutic effects in autoimmune diseases

ABSTRACT: Autoimmune disease is a systemic inflammatory response of immune blood cells caused by self-tolerance dysfunction, due to genetic or environmental factors or a combination thereof. Studies on autoimmune disease regarding the inhibition of toll-like receptor (TLR)7/9-MyD axis or the regulation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and Th17 comprising an abundance of respective receptors have shown improvements in phenotypes or molecular markers, providing clues to the practicality of the inhibitors of endosomal TLRs. This study discovered several small-molecule compounds in endosomes exerting specific inhibitory effects on SITE1 shared among TLR 3, 7, 8, and 9, named endosomal TLR inhibitors (ETIs). The drug discovery process involved identifying lead compounds optimized to the receptors using a quantitative structure-activity relationship model and subsequent modification of the compounds to improve their binding affinity to target proteins. To propose a method of verifying the drug effects against side or placebo effect arising from false positives, the drug evaluation process converged from cellular response to signaling process to protein binding. Drug values on the inhibition of endosomal TLRs in autoimmune disease were assessed based on the onset of mild-to-life-threatening autoimmune disease including psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and multiple sclerosis. Complete healing was achieved for psoriasis through direct or indirect association with TLRs. Therapeutic potential of the novel ETIs for psoriasis was verified and is considered an effective drug for other autoimmune diseases associated with the TLR7/9-MyD axis.

Suppression of molecular inflammatory pathways by Toll-like Receptor 7, 8, and 9 antagonists in a model of IL-23-induced skin inflammation

Project description:Psoriasis is a complex inflammatory disease resulting from the activation of T helper (Th) 1 and Th17 cells. Recent evidence suggests that abnormal activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 7, 8 and 9 contributes to the initiation and maintenance of psoriasis. We have evaluated the effects of TLR antagonists on the gene expression profile in an IL-23-induced skin inflammation model in mice. Psoriasis-like skin lesions were induced in C57BL/6 mice by intradermal injection of IL-23 in the dorsum. Two TLR antagonists were compared: IMO-3100, an antagonist of TLRs 7 and 9, and IMO-8400, an antagonist of TLRs 7, 8 and 9, both of which previously have been shown to reduce epidermal hyperplasia in this model. Skin gene expression profiles of IL-23-induced inflammation were compared with or without TLR antagonist treatment. IL-23 injection resulted in alteration of 5100 gene probes (fold change ≥ 2, FDR < 0.05) including IL-17 pathways that are up-regulated in psoriasis vulgaris. Targeting TLRs 7, 8 and 9 with IMO-8400 resulted in modulation of more than 2300 mRNAs while targeting TLRs 7 and 9 with IMO-3100 resulted in modulation of more than 1900 mRNAs. Both agents strongly decreased IL-17A expression (>12-fold reduction), normalized IL-17 induced genes such as beta-defensin and CXCL1, and normalized aberrant expression of keratin 16 (indicating epidermal hyperplasia). These results suggest that IL-23-driven inflammation in mouse skin may be dependent on signaling mediated by TLRs 7, 8, and 9 and that these receptors represent novel therapeutic targets in psoriasis vulgaris and other diseases with similar pathophysiology. Expression profiles for mice with IL23-induced phenotype (psoriasisform) at baseline and after treatment with two doses of TLR7/8/9 antagonist and saline. Samples for nomal mice are also available

Cell intrinsic expression of TLR9 in autoreactive B cells constrains BCR/TLR7-dependent responses

Project description:Endosomal Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an important role in the etiology of systemic autoimmune diseases such as SLE, where DNA- and RNA-associated autoantigens activate autoreactive B cells through TLR9- and TLR7-dependent pathways, respectively. Nevertheless, TLR9-deficient autoimmune prone mice develop more severe clinical disease, while TLR7-deficient and TLR7/9-double deficient autoimmune-prone mice develop less severe disease. To determine whether the regulatory activity of TLR9 is B cell intrinsic, we have now directly compared the functional properties of autoantigen activated WT, TLR9-deficient and TLR7-deficient B cells, in an experimental system where proliferation depends on BCR/TLR co-engagement. In vitro, TLR9-deficient cells are less dependent on survival factors for a sustained proliferative response than either WT or TLR7-deficient cells. The TLR9-deficient cells also preferentially differentiate toward the plasma cell lineage, as indicated by expression of CD138, sustained expression of IRF4, and other molecular markers of plasma cells. In vivo, autoantigen-activated TLR9-deficient cells give rise to greater numbers of autoantibody producing cells. Our results identify distinct roles for TLR7 and TLR9 in the differentiation of autoreactive B cells that explain the capacity of TLR9 to limit, and TLR7 to promote, the clinical features of SLE. AM14 WT, Tlr7-/-, Tlr9-/- and Tlr7/9-/- B cells were stimulated with PL2-3 for 0, 6, 24, and 42 hours, for a total of 16 samples.

TASL is the SLC15A4-associated adaptor for IRF5 activation by TLR7–9

Project description:Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have a crucial role in the recognition of pathogens and initiation of immune responses. Here we show that a previously uncharacterized protein encoded by CXorf21—a gene that is associated with systemic lupus erythematosus—interacts with the endolysosomal transporter SLC15A4, an essential but poorly understood component of the endolysosomal TLR machinery also linked to autoimmune disease. Loss of this type-I-interferon-inducible protein, which we refer to as ‘TLR adaptor interacting with SLC15A4 on the lysosome’ (TASL), abrogated responses to endolysosomal TLR agonists in both primary and transformed human immune cells. Deletion of SLC15A4 or TASL specifically impaired the activation of the IRF pathway without affecting NF-κB and MAPK signalling, which indicates that ligand recognition and TLR engagement in the endolysosome occurred normally. Extensive mutagenesis of TASL demonstrated that its localization and function relies on the interaction with SLC15A4. TASL contains a conserved pLxIS motif (in which p denotes a hydrophilic residue and x denotes any residue) that mediates the recruitment and activation of IRF5. This finding shows that TASL is an innate immune adaptor for TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 signalling, revealing a clear mechanistic analogy with the IRF3 adaptors STING, MAVS and TRIF. The identification of TASL as the component that links endolysosomal TLRs to the IRF5 transcription factor via SLC15A4 provides a mechanistic explanation for the involvement of these proteins in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Identification of potential CCDC134 interactors by immunoprecipitation and LC-MS analysis

Project description:Our data indicate that CCDC134 plays a critical role in regulating the biogenesis of Toll-like receptors (TLRs). To gain deeper insights into the molecular mechanisms through which CCDC134 mediates TLR regulation, we sought to identify potential binding partners using interaction proteomics. Mass spectrometry analysis of Flag-CCDC134 immunoprecipitates from stably reconstituted CCDC134 knockout CAL-1 cells provided a better understanding of the interaction landscape associated with CCDC134. Notably, among the identified proteins, the TLR chaperone Gp96 emerged as one of the strongest binding partners. We further validated that CCDC134 interacts with Gp96 and is essential for its proper folding and stability. Consequently, loss of CCDC134 impairs the folding, maturation, and trafficking of TLRs.

The effects of MyD88 deficiency on disease phenotype in dysferlin-deficient A/J mice: Role of endogenous toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands

Project description:Genome wide expression study of the effect of single stranded RNA (ssRNA) in A/JOlaHsd (WT), A/J and A/J-MyD88 deficient mice. The hypothesis for this study was that endogenous TLR ligands released from the leaking dysferlin-deficient muscle fibers engage TLRs on muscle and immune cells and contribute to disease progression.These data point to a clear role for the TLR pathway in the pathogenesis of dysferlin deficiency.

Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase Regulates TLR9 but not TLR7 Signaling in Human pDCs

Project description:Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) can be activated by the endosomal TLRs, and contribute to the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by producing type I IFNs. Thus, blocking TLR-mediated pDC activation may represent a useful approach for the treatment of SLE. In an attempt to identify a therapeutic target for blocking TLR signaling in pDCs, we investigated the contribution of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) to the activation of pDCs by TLR7 and TLR9 stimulation by using a selective Btk inhibitor RN486. Stimulation of TLR7 and 9 with their respective agonist, namely, gardiquimod and type A CpG ODN2216, resulted in the activation of human pDCs, as demonstrated by the expression of activation markers (CD69, CD40, and CD86), elevated production of IFN-alpha and other inflammatory cytokines, as well as up-regulation of numerous genes including IFN-alpha-inducible genes and activation of interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) and NF-kB. RN486 inhibited all of these events induced by TLR9, but not TLR7 stimulation, with a nanomolar potency for inhibiting type A CpG ODN2216-mediated production of cytokines (e.g., IC50=386 nM for inhibiting IFN-alpha). Our data reveal Btk as an important regulatory enzyme in the TLR9 pathway, and a potential therapeutic target for SLE and other TLR-driven diseases. pDCs from healthy donors (n=4) were treated with gardiquimod (TLR7 agonist) or ODN 2216 (TLR9 agonist) with or without BTK inhibitor for 3 hours.

Effect of TLR Ligation on the Differentiation and Function of Human mMDSC

Project description:Immunosuppressive microenvironments block the activity of tumoricidal T and NK cells, allowing cancers to avoid immune elimination. Monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (mMDSC) are an important component of these immunosuppressive milieus. Human mMDSC respond to stimulation via their Toll-like receptors by differentiating into macrophage. Agonists targeting TLRs 1/2 (such as PAM3) induce mMDSC to mature into immumosuppressive M2-like macrophage through a process that involves TNF and IL6. Agonists targeting TLRs 7/8 (such as R848) cause the same precursors to mature into tumoricidal M1-like macrophages, a process in which IL12 plays a central role. The immune suppression mediated by mMDSC is reversed by exposure to TLR 7/8 agonists which thus might be useful adjuncts for tumor immunotherapy. In this study we looked at several time points. hMDSC from four different donors were sorted from PBMC then cultured in the presence of R848, Pam 3 or left unstimulated for 30, 75 and 225 minutes. Late time points included samples from seven donors after 3 days in culture with the same TLR ligands. For microarray experiments total RNA was extracted, amplified into aRNA and coupled to Cy5. Similarly amplified RNA from universal RNA was coupled to Cy3 and used as a reference for each array.
