Post-transcriptional control of homeostatic B- cell signalling by HuR is required for innate B cell maintenance and function.

ABSTRACT: Innate B-1 cells constitute a self-maintained layer of defence for early detection of bacteria, clearance of apoptotic cell debris and removal of autoantigens driving autoimmunity. B-1 cells are originated from foetal tissues but, as opposed to B-2 cells, the molecular mechanisms behind their development and homeostatic maintenance remain largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that post-transcriptional regulation by the RNA binding protein HuR is essential for the homeostatic self-replenishment of innate B-1 cells, the expansion of B-1 cell clones targeting self-antigens and the production of natural autoantibodies. HuR KO B-1 cells fail to express the high levels of surface BCR, TACI and BAFFR required for tonic signalling and cell survival. Mechanistically, HuR binds to the 3’UTRs of mRNAs encoding these surface receptors and of pro-survival molecules, like BCL-2 and MCL-1, promoting their translation into protein. In summary, we reveal the need of post-transcriptional regulation in BCR expression, tonic signalling and homeostatic maintenance of functional B-1 cells.

Post-transcriptional control of homeostatic B- cell signalling by HuR is required for innate B cell maintenance and function. [RNA-Seq]

Elucidation of tonic and activated B cell receptor signaling in Burkitt’s lymphoma provides insights into regulation of cell survival

Project description:B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling promotes the survival of malignant B cells, such as Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL) and the activated B-cell-like subtype of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (ABC-DLBCL). In contrast to ABC DLBCL, where malignant cells require chronic activation of the BCR for their survival, BL cells are dependent on tonic BCR signaling that is antigen-independent. Elucidation and systematic comparison of tonic and activated BCR signaling led to the identification of novel signaling effectors, among them ACTN4 and ARFGEF2, which were identified as regulators of BL cell survival. As tonic and activated BCR signaling are relevant for important aspects of B cell biology, our study helps in gaining an understanding of BCR-induced processes not only in malignant but potentially also physiological settings.

Essential role of the transcription factor Bhlhe41 in regulating the self-renewal and BCR repertoire of B-1a cells

Project description:The innate-like B-1a cells provide a first line of defense against pathogens, and yet little is known about their transcriptional control. Here we identified an essential role of the transcription factor Bhlhe41, with a lesser contribution of Bhlhe40, in controlling late stages of B-1a cell differentiation. Bhlhe41/Bhlhe40 mutant B-1a cells were strongly reduced and had an abnormal cell-surface phenotype and altered B-cell receptor (BCR) repertoire, as exemplified by loss of the phosphatidylcholine-specific Vh12/Vk4 BCR. Expression of a pre-rearranged Vh12/Vk4 BCR failed to rescue the mutant phenotype and revealed enhanced proliferation accompanied with increased cell death, implicating Bhlhe41 in controlling the self-renewal of B-1a cells. Bhlhe41 directly repressed the expression of cell cycle regulators and inhibitors of BCR signaling, while activating pro-survival cytokine signaling.

Gene expression profiles from human splenic Marginal Zone and Naive (Follicular) B cells

Project description:Splenic Marginal Zone B cells mount innate-like T cell-independent (TI) antibody responses to blood-borne antigens upon receiving activation signals from TACI-engaging factors BAFF and APRIL. The transcriptome analysis of splenic Marginal Zone (MZ) B cells was performed to verify which transcriptional programs are enhanced in the innate-like MZ B cell subset and to study the involvement of mTOR in MZ B cells activated via TACI.

Chlamydophila psittaci negative ocular adnexal marginal zone lymphomas express self polyreactive B cell receptors

Project description:The pathogenesis of Chlamydophila (C.) psittaci negative ocular adnexal extranodal marginal zone lymphomas (OAEMZLs) is poorly understood. OAEMZLs are monoclonal tumors expressing a biased repertoire of mutated surface immunoglobulins. Antigenic activation of the B cell receptor (BCR) may play a role in the pathogenesis of these lymphomas. We have analyzed the reactivity of recombinant OAEMZL immunoglobulins. OAEMZL antibodies reacted with self-human antigens, as demonstrated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, HEp-2 immunofluorescence and human protein microarrays. All the analyzed recombinant antibodies (rAbs) exhibited polyreactivity by comprehensive protein array antibody reactivity and some rAbs also demonstrated rheumatoid factor activity. The identity of several reactive antigens was confirmed by microcapillary reverse-phase HPLC nano-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. The tested rAbs frequently reacted with shared intracellular and extracellular self-antigens (e.g. galectin-3). Furthermore, these self-antigens induced BCR signaling in B cells expressing cognate surface immunoglobulins derived from OAEMZLs. These findings suggest that interactions between self-antigens and cognate OAEMZL tumor-derived BCRs are functional, inducing intracellular signaling. Overall our findings suggest that self-antigen-induced BCR stimulation may be implicated in the pathogenesis of C. psittaci negative OAEMZLs. Antibody Specificity Profiling with four OAEMZL rAbs (Ab4438, Ab4726, Ab5334, and Ab11274) performed on ProtoArray Human Protein Microarrays

Tonic type 2 immunity controls autoimmunity in the skin

Project description:The existence of immunoregulatory mechanisms that control autoimmunity in non-lymphoid tissues remains unclear. Through transcriptomic and lipidomic analyses, we found that psoriasis is tightly associated with a significant downregulation of fatty acid metabolism and biosynthesis pathways as well as Th2 signature genes. Among lipids-activated transcription factors, LXR and PPAR were required for fatty acid homeostasis and resistance to psoriasis in mice. STAT6 played a role in the homeostatic expression of LXR and PPARγ in the skin. Additionally, innate lymphoid cells established tonic type 2 immunity in normal skin by producing IL-13 continually. Mice lacking tonic type 2 immunity were more susceptible to psoriatic inflammation in vivo. In human skin, inhibiting tonic type 2 immunity worsened psoriasis-like inflammation and IL-17 production, while activating LXR or PPAR inhibited them. Therefore, tonic type 2 immunity is an essential tissue checkpoint that represses autoimmunity and maintains lipid homeostasis in the skin.

Lin28b controls a neonatal to adult switch in B cell positive selection

Project description:The ability of B-1 cells to become positively selected into the mature B cell pool, despite being weakly self-reactive, has puzzled the field since its initial discovery. Here, we explore changes in B cell positive selection as a function of developmental time by exploiting a link between CD5 surface levels and the natural occurrence of self-reactive B cell receptors (BCRs) in BCR wildtype mice. We show that the heterochronic RNA-binding protein Lin28b potentiates a neonatal mode of B cell selection characterized by enhanced overall positive selection and the developmental progression of CD5+ immature B cells in particular. Importantly, Lin28b achieves this through amplifying the CD19/PI3K/c-Myc positive feedback loop and ectopic Lin28b expression restores both positive selection and mature B cell numbers in CD19–/– adult mice. Thus, the temporally restricted expression of Lin28b alters the rules for B cell selection during ontogeny through modulating tonic signaling. We propose that this neonatal mode of B cell selection represents a cell intrinsic cue to accelerate the de novo establishment of the adaptive immune system and incorporate a layer of natural antibody mediated immunity throughout life.
