ADAP promotes effector cytokine release, degranulation and migration 1 of NK cells primed during in vivo Listeria monocytogenes infection in 2 mice

ABSTRACT: is involved in the formation of immune signaling complexes. To date only limited and moreover 35 conflicting data exist regarding the role of ADAP in NK cells. To extend existing knowledge we 36 investigated ADAP-dependency of NK cells in the context of in vivo infection with the intracellular 37 pathogen Listeria monocytogenes (Lm). Ex vivo analysis of infection-primed NK cells revealed 38 impaired expression of IFN-γ and chemokines as well as impaired cytotoxic capacity in NK cells 39 lacking ADAP as indicated by reduced CD107a surface expression and inefficient perforin 40 production. However, ADAP-deficiency had no global effect on NK cell morphology or intracellular 41 distribution of CD107a-containing vesicles. Proteomic definition of ADAPko and wild type NK cells 42 did not uncover obvious differences in protein composition during the steady state and moreover, 43 similar early response patterns were induced in NK cells upon infection independent of the genotype. 44 In line with protein network analyses that suggested an altered migration phenotype in naïve 45 ADAPko NK cells, in vitro migration assays uncovered significantly reduced migration of both naïve 46 as well as infection-primed ADAPko NK cells compared to wild type NK cells. We propose that this 47 migration defect might account at least in part for the fact that during in vivo infection significantly 48 lower numbers of ADAPko NK cells accumulate in the spleen i.e. the site of infection. In conclusion, 49 we show here that during systemic Lm infection in mice ADAP is essential for efficient cytokine and 50 chemokine production, cytotoxic capacity and migration of NK cells.
