Project description:We reported in the past that activation of the third (C3) and fifth element (C5) of complement cascade (ComC) is required for a proper homing and engraftment of transplanted hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). Since myeloablative conditioning for transplantation triggers in recipient bone marrow (BM) state of sterile inflammation, we have become interested in the role of complement in this process and the potential involvement of alternative pathway of ComC activation. We noticed that factor B deficient mice (FB-KO) that do not activate properly alternative pathway, engraft poorly with BM cells from normal wild type (WT) mice. We observed defects both in homing and engraftment of transplanted HSPCs. To shed more light on these phenomena, we found that myeloablative lethal irradiation conditioning for transplantation activates purinergic signaling, ComC, and Nlrp3 inflammasome in WT mice, which is significantly impaired in FB-KO animals. Our proteomics analysis revealed that conditioned for transplantation lethally irradiated FB-KO compared to normal control animals have lower expression of several proteins involved in positive regulation of cell migration, trans-endothelial migration, immune system, cellular signaling protein, and metabolic pathways. Overall, our recent study further supports the role of innate immunity in homing and engraftment of HSPCs.

Project description:We postulated that mobilization, homing, and engraftment of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSCPs) is facilitated by a state of sterile inflammation induced in bone marrow (BM) after administration of pro-mobilizing drugs or in response to pre-transplant myeloablative conditioning. An important role in this phenomenon plays purinergic signaling that by the release of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (eATP) activates in HSPCs and in cells in the hematopoietic microenvironment an intracellular pattern recognition receptor (PPR) known as Nlrp3 inflammasome. We reported recently that its deficiency results in defective trafficking of HSPCs. Moreover, it is known that eATP after release into extracellular space is processed by cell surface expressed ectonucleotidases CD39 and CD73 to extracellular adenosine (eAdo) that in contrast to eATP shows an anti-inflammatory effect. Based on data that the state of sterile inflammation promotes trafficking of HSPCs, and since eAdo is endowed with anti-inflammatory properties we become interested in how eAdo will affect the mobilization, homing, and engraftment of HSPCs and which of eAdo receptors are involved in these processes. As expected, eAdo impaired HSPCs trafficking and this occurred in autocrine- and paracrine-dependent manner by direct stimulation of these cells or by affecting cells in the BM microenvironment. We report herein for the first time that this defect is mediated by activation of the A2B receptor and a specific inhibitor of this receptor improves eAdo-aggravated trafficking of HSPCs. To explain this at the molecular level eAdo-A2B receptor interaction upregulates in HSPCs in NF-kB-, NRF2- and cAMP-dependent manner heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), that is Nlrp3 inflammasome inhibitor. This corroborated with our analysis of proteomics signature in murine HSPCs exposed to eAdo that revealed that A2B inhibition promotes cell migration and proliferation. Based on this we postulate that blockage of A2B receptor may accelerate the mobilization of HSPCs as well as their hematopoietic reconstitution and this approach could be potentially considered in the future to be tested in the clinic.

Project description:Having previously demonstrated that the complement system modulates mobilization of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) in mice, we investigated the involvement of C5 cleavage fragments (C5a/(desArg)C5a) in human HSPC mobilization.C5 cleavage fragments in the plasma were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using human anti-(desArg)C5a antibody, and expression of the C5a/(desArg)C5a receptor (CD88) in hematopoietic cells by flow cytometry. We also examined the chemotactic responses of hematopoietic cells to C5 cleavage fragments and expression of stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)-degrading proteases that perturb retention of HSPC in bone marrow, namely matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, membrane type (MT) 1-MMP, and carboxypeptidase M.We found that plasma levels of (desArg)C5a are significantly higher in patients who are good mobilizers and correlate with CD34(+) cell and white blood cell counts in mobilized peripheral blood. C5 cleavage fragments did not chemoattract myeloid progenitors (colony-forming unit granulocyte-macrophage), but (desArg)C5a did strongly chemoattract mature nucleated cells. Consistently, CD88 was not detected on CD34(+) cells, but appeared on more mature myeloid precursors, monocytes, and granulocytes. Moreover, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-mobilized peripheral blood mononuclear cells and polymorphonuclear cells had a significantly higher percentage of cells expressing CD88 than nonmobilized peripheral blood. Furthermore, C5a stimulation of granulocytes and monocytes decreased CXCR4 expression and chemotaxis toward an SDF-1 gradient and increased secretion of MMP-9 and expression of MT1-MMP and carboxypeptidase M.C5 cleavage fragments not only induce a highly proteolytic microenvironment in human bone marrow, which perturbs retention through the CXCR4/SDF-1 axis, but also strongly chemoattracts granulocytes, promoting their egress into mobilized peripheral blood, which is crucial for subsequent mobilization of HSPC.

Project description:The NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-repeat-containing family, pyrin domain-containing 3) inflammasome mediates production of inflammatory mediators, such as IL-1β and IL-18, and as such is implicated in a variety of inflammatory processes, including infection, sepsis, autoinflammatory diseases, and metabolic diseases. The proximal steps in NLRP3 inflammasome activation are not well understood. Here we elucidate a critical role for Ca(2+) mobilization in activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by multiple stimuli. We demonstrate that blocking Ca(2+) mobilization inhibits assembly and activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome complex, and that during ATP stimulation Ca(2+) signaling is pivotal in promoting mitochondrial damage. C/EPB homologous protein, a transcription factor that can modulate Ca(2+) release from the endoplasmic reticulum, amplifies NLRP3 inflammasome activation, thus linking endoplasmic reticulum stress to activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Our findings support a model for NLRP3 inflammasome activation by Ca(2+)-mediated mitochondrial damage.

Project description:Necroptosis is a physiological cell suicide mechanism initiated by receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3) phosphorylation of mixed-lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), which results in disruption of the plasma membrane. Necroptotic cell lysis, and resultant release of proinflammatory mediators, is thought to cause inflammation in necroptotic disease models. However, we previously showed that MLKL signaling can also promote inflammation by activating the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome to recruit the adaptor protein apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain (ASC) and trigger caspase-1 processing of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β. Here, we provide evidence that MLKL-induced activation of NLRP3 requires (i) the death effector four-helical bundle of MLKL, (ii) oligomerization and association of MLKL with cellular membranes, and (iii) a reduction in intracellular potassium concentration. Although genetic or pharmacological targeting of NLRP3 or caspase-1 prevented MLKL-induced IL-1β secretion, they did not prevent necroptotic cell death. Gasdermin D (GSDMD), the pore-forming caspase-1 substrate required for efficient NLRP3-triggered pyroptosis and IL-1β release, was not essential for MLKL-dependent death or IL-1β secretion. Imaging of MLKL-dependent ASC speck formation demonstrated that necroptotic stimuli activate NLRP3 cell-intrinsically, indicating that MLKL-induced NLRP3 inflammasome formation and IL-1β cleavage occur before cell lysis. Furthermore, we show that necroptotic activation of NLRP3, but not necroptotic cell death alone, is necessary for the activation of NF-κB in healthy bystander cells. Collectively, these results demonstrate the potential importance of NLRP3 inflammasome activity as a driving force for inflammation in MLKL-dependent diseases.

Project description:Cytopenias are key prognostic indicators of life-threatening infection, contributing to immunosuppression and mortality. Here we define a role for Caspase-1-dependent death, known as pyroptosis, in infection-induced cytopenias by studying inflammasome activation in hematopoietic progenitor cells. The NLRP1a inflammasome is expressed in hematopoietic progenitor cells and its activation triggers their pyroptotic death. Active NLRP1a induced a lethal systemic inflammatory disease that was driven by Caspase-1 and IL-1? but was independent of apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC) and ameliorated by IL-18. Surprisingly, in the absence of IL-1?-driven inflammation, active NLRP1a triggered pyroptosis of hematopoietic progenitor cells resulting in leukopenia at steady state. During periods of hematopoietic stress induced by chemotherapy or lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection, active NLRP1a caused prolonged cytopenia, bone marrow hypoplasia, and immunosuppression. Conversely, NLRP1-deficient mice showed enhanced recovery from chemotherapy and LCMV infection, demonstrating that NLRP1 acts as a cellular sentinel to alert Caspase-1 to hematopoietic and infectious stress.

Project description:Atherosclerosis (AS) is a complex and chronic inflammatory disease that occurs in multiple systems of the human body. It is an important pathological basis for a variety of diseases and a serious threat to human health. So far, many theories have been formed to explain the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, among which "inflammation theory" has gradually become a research focus. This theory presents that inflammatory response runs through the whole progress of AS, inflammatory cells play as the main executors of AS, and inflammatory mediators are the key molecules of AS. In the inflammatory process of atherosclerosis, the role of NLRP3 in the atherosclerosis has gradually got the attention of researchers. NLRP3 is a kind of signal-transductional pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). After recognizing and binding to the damage factors, NLRP3 inflammasome will be assembled to activate IL-1? and caspase-1 pathways, resulting in promoting the inflammation process of AS, reducing the stability of the plaques, and finally increasing the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events. Taken above, the article will review the potential benefits of drugs targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome in the therapy of AS.

Project description:Activation of the multimeric inflammasome complex leads to inflammatory responses to biotic and abiotic triggers. The inflammasome sensor, Nod-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3), is activated by a range of stimuli and is tightly regulated to restrict excessive inflammation. Because NLRP3 responds broadly to cellular insults and regulates cell death similar to the stress-activated apoptosis signal-regulating kinases 1 and 2 (ASK1/2), we hypothesized that ASK1/2 may regulate NLRP3 activity. Although essential for mediating NLRP3 inflammasome activation, ASK1/2 were not required for NLRC4 or absent in melanoma 2 inflammasome activation. ASK1/2 was required for NLRP3 up-regulation after lipopolysaccharide treatment in primary bone marrow-derived macrophages and lung fibroblasts as well as during infection with Burkholderia thailandensis and influenza virus. Consistent with reduced NLRP3 expression in response to B. thailandensis, caspase-1 cleavage and cell death were reduced in infected bone marrow-derived macrophages, and mice lacking ASK1/2 were resistant to Burkholderia intranasal infection. Single knockouts of either ASK1 or ASK2 showed a partial role for both ASK1 and ASK2 in NLRP3 up-regulation in response to lipopolysaccharide or B. thailandensis, but ASK2 was required primarily to mediate lethal pathology during intranasal infection in vivo. Our findings identify the ASK1/2 complex as a regulator of NLRP3 activation and highlight a larger role for ASK2 in lung infection during B. thailandensis infection.

Project description:The NLRP3 inflammasome is a multimeric protein complex that is assembled in response to a wide array of pathogens and danger-associated molecular patterns. Despite the ability of NLRP3 to respond to diverse cues, the mechanisms controlling the assembly of this complex are contested. Recently published studies showed that HOIL-1, a member of the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex, contributes to activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. SHARPIN, along with HOIP and HOIL-1, constitute the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex. In this study, we examined whether SHARPIN is required for the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Using Sharpin(cpdm) macrophages (deficient in SHARPIN expression), we demonstrate that SHARPIN is required for optimal activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by both canonical and noncanonical stimuli. Furthermore, Sharpin(cpdm) macrophages had dramatic defects on both the NF-κB and MAPK pathways, suggesting a role in transcriptional priming of the NLRP3 inflammasome. In conclusion, our study identified SHARPIN as a novel regulator of the NLRP3 inflammasome.
