J Control Release 2024; 372:494-521. [PMID: 38849091 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2024.06.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024]
Abstract
In the pursuit of achieving better therapeutic outcomes in the treatment of HIV, innovative drug delivery strategies have been extensively explored. Mannose receptors, which are primarily found on macrophages and dendritic cells, offer promising targets for drug delivery due to their involvement in HIV pathogenesis. This review article comprehensively evaluates recent drug delivery system advancements targeting the mannose receptor. We have systematically described recent developments in creating and utilizing drug delivery platforms, including nanoparticles, liposomes, micelles, noisomes, dendrimers, and other nanocarrier systems targeted at the mannose receptor. These strategies aim to enhance drug delivery specificity, bioavailability, and therapeutic efficacy while decreasing off-target effects and systemic toxicity. Furthermore, the article delves into how mannose receptors and HIV interact, highlighting the potential for exploiting this interaction to enhance drug delivery to infected cells. The review covers essential topics, such as the rational design of nanocarriers for mannose receptor recognition, the impact of physicochemical properties on drug delivery performance, and how targeted delivery affects the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of anti-HIV agents. The challenges of these novel strategies, including immunogenicity, stability, and scalability, and future research directions in this rapidly growing area are discussed. The knowledge synthesis presented in this review underscores the potential of mannose receptor-based targeted drug delivery as a promising avenue for advancing HIV treatment. By leveraging the unique properties of mannose receptors, researchers can design drug delivery systems that cater to individual needs, overcome existing limitations, and create more effective and patient-friendly treatments in the ongoing fight against HIV/AIDS.

Abstract
Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are widespread pathogens that generally cause mild infections in immunocompetent individuals but severe or even fatal diseases in immunocompromised patients. In order to counteract the host immune defenses, HAdVs encode various immunomodulatory proteins in the early transcription unit 3 (E3). The E3/49K protein is a highly glycosylated type I transmembrane protein uniquely expressed by species D HAdVs. Its N-terminal ectodomain sec49K is released by metalloprotease-mediated shedding at the cell surface and binds to the receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45, a critical regulator of leukocyte activation and functions. It remained elusive which domains of CD45 and E3/49K are involved in the interaction and whether such an interaction can also occur on the cell surface with membrane-anchored full-length E3/49K. Here, we show that the two extracellular domains R1 and R2 of E3/49K bind to the same site in the domain d3 of CD45. This interaction enforces the dimerization of CD45, causing the inhibition of T cell receptor signaling. Intriguingly, the membrane-anchored E3/49K appears to be designed like a "molecular fishing rod" using an extended disordered region of E3/49K as a "fishing line" to bridge the distance between the plasma membrane of infected cells and the CD45 binding site on T cells to effectively position the domains R1 and R2 as baits for CD45 binding. This design strongly suggests that both secreted sec49K as well as membrane-anchored full-length E3/49K have immunomodulatory functions. The forced dimerization of CD45 may be applied as a therapeutic strategy in chronic inflammatory disorders and cancer. IMPORTANCE The battle between viruses and their hosts is an ongoing arms race. Whereas the host tries to detect and eliminate the virus, the latter counteracts such antiviral measures to replicate and spread. Adenoviruses have evolved various mechanisms to evade the human immune response. The E3/49K protein of species D adenoviruses mediates the inhibition of immune cell function via binding to the protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45. Here, we show that E3/49K triggers the dimerization of CD45 and thereby inhibits its phosphatase activity. Intriguingly, the membrane-anchored E3/49K seems to be designed like a "molecular fishing rod" with the two CD45 binding domains of E3/49K as baits positioned at the end of an extended disordered region reminiscent of a fishing line. The adenoviral strategy to inhibit CD45 activity by forced dimerization may be used for therapeutic intervention in autoimmune diseases or to prevent graft rejection after transplantation.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 127:463-473.

Abstract
Mannose receptor (MR), as a member of the C-type lectin (CLEC) family, plays an important role in the internalize pathogen-associated ligands and activate immune response. In the present study, MR was identified and characterized from Asian swamp eel (Monopterus albus) (namely MaMR). The open reading frame of MaMR was 4311 bp in length encoding 1437 amino acids of a ∼162.308 kDa protein, including a cysteine-rich (CR) domain, a fibronectin type II (FNII) domain, eight C-type lectin-like domains (CTLDs), a transmembrane domain and a short cytoplasmic domain. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that MaMR shared the highest similarity with that of Paralichthys olivaceus. The expression of MaMR was found in all the examined tissues, with the highest expression in the spleen and kidney. After injection with Edwardsiella tarda, the transcript level of MaMR was initially reduced and then significantly elevated in the liver, spleen, foregut and hindgut. In the isolated peripheral blood leukocytes, the expression of MaMR was significantly induced post stimulated with LPS and LTA. Then the MaMR-CTLD4-8 recombinant protein was purified. Bacterial agglutination and binding assay showed that rMaMR-CTLD4-8 could bind with both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and agglutinate bacteria in the presence of calcium in vitro. Further analysis revealed that MaMR and TLR2 coordinately induced the expression of TRAF6 and promoted the phosphorylation level of p65, leading to the expression of proinflammatory cytokines il-1β and tnf-α in EPC cells. Taken together, these results reveal that MaMR plays an important role in the immune response of fish to pathogen infections.

Abstract
The mannose receptor is a member of the C-type lectin (CLEC) family, which can bind and internalize a variety of endogenous and pathogen-associated ligands. Because of these properties, its role in endocytosis as well as antigen processing and presentation has been studied intensively. Recently, it became clear that the mannose receptor can directly influence the activation of various immune cells. Cell-bound mannose receptor expressed by antigen-presenting cells was indeed shown to drive activated T cells towards a tolerogenic phenotype. On the other hand, serum concentrations of a soluble form of the mannose receptor have been reported to be increased in patients suffering from a variety of inflammatory diseases and to correlate with severity of disease. Interestingly, we recently demonstrated that the soluble mannose receptor directly promotes macrophage proinflammatory activation and trigger metaflammation. In this review, we highlight the role of the mannose receptor and other CLECs in regulating the activation of immune cells and in shaping inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Cellular interactions between endothelial cells and macrophages regulate macrophage localization and phenotype, but the mechanisms underlying these interactions are poorly understood. Here we explored the role of sialoglycans on lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) in interactions with macrophage-expressed Siglec-1 (CD169). Lectin-binding assays and mass spectrometric analyses revealed that LEC from human skin express more sialylated glycans than the corresponding blood endothelial cells. Higher amounts of sialylated and/or sulfated glycans on LEC than BEC were consistently observed in murine skin, lung and lymph nodes. The floor LEC of the subcapsular sinus (SCS) in murine lymph nodes (LN) displayed sialylated glycans at particularly high densities. The sialoglycans of LN LEC were strongly bound by Siglec-1. Such binding plays an important role in the localization of Siglec-1+ LN-SCS macrophages, as their numbers are strongly reduced in mice expressing a Siglec-1 mutant that is defective in sialoglycan binding. The residual Siglec-1+ macrophages are less proliferative and have a more anti-inflammatory phenotype. We propose that the densely clustered, sialylated glycans on the SCS floor LEC are a key component of the macrophage niche, providing anchorage for the Siglec-1+ LN-SCS macrophages.

Abstract
Proinflammatory activation of macrophages in metabolic tissues is critically important in the induction of obesity-induced metaflammation. Here, we demonstrate that the soluble mannose receptor (sMR) plays a direct functional role in both macrophage activation and metaflammation. We show that sMR binds CD45 on macrophages and inhibits its phosphatase activity, leading to an Src/Akt/NF-κB-mediated cellular reprogramming toward an inflammatory phenotype both in vitro and in vivo. Remarkably, increased serum sMR levels were observed in obese mice and humans and directly correlated with body weight. Importantly, enhanced sMR levels increase serum proinflammatory cytokines, activate tissue macrophages, and promote insulin resistance. Altogether, our results reveal sMR as regulator of proinflammatory macrophage activation, which could constitute a therapeutic target for metaflammation and other hyperinflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Macrophage plasticity, cellular origin, and phenotypic heterogeneity are perpetual challenges for studies addressing the biology of this pivotal immune cell in development, homeostasis, and tissue remodeling/repair. Consequently, a myriad of macrophage subtypes has been described in these contexts. To facilitate the identification of functional macrophage subtypes in vivo, here we used a flow cytometry-based assay that allows for detailed phenotyping of macrophages engaged in extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation. Of the five macrophage subtypes identified in the remodeling dermis by using this assay, collagen degradation was primarily executed by Ly6C−CCR2+ and Ly6C−CCR2low macrophages via mannose receptor-dependent collagen endocytosis, while Ly6C+CCR2+ macrophages were the dominant fibrin-endocytosing cells. Unexpectedly, the CCL2/MCP1-CCR2 signaling axis was critical for both collagen and fibrin degradation, while collagen degradation was independent of IL-4Ra signaling. Furthermore, the cytokine GM-CSF selectively enhanced collagen degradation by Ly6C+CCR2+ macrophages. This study reveals distinct subsets of macrophages engaged in ECM turnover and identifies novel wound healing-associated functions for CCL2 and GM-CSF inflammatory cytokines. Phenotypically diverse subsets of dermal macrophages undertake the degradation of extracellular matrix C-C motif chemokine Ligand 2 (CCL2) signaling is critical for macrophage-mediated endocytosis of collagen and fibrin. Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) and Interleukin (IL)-13 stimulate collagen endocytosis. The wound healing-associated IL4-IL4 Receptor a (IL4Ra) signaling is dispensable for collagen endocytosis by macrophages. The mannose receptor is the principal endocytic collagen receptor utilized by resident dermal macrophages.

Abstract
Scavenger receptors are a highly diverse superfamily of proteins which are grouped by their inherent ability to bind and internalize a wide array of structurally diverse ligands which can be either endogenous or exogenous in nature. Consequently, scavenger receptors are known to play important roles in host homeostasis, with common endogenous ligands including apoptotic cells, and modified low density lipoproteins (LDLs); additionally, scavenger receptors are key regulators of inflammatory diseases, such as atherosclerosis. Also, as a consequence of their affinity for a wide range of microbial products, their role in innate immunity is also being increasingly studied. However, in this review, a secondary function of a number of endothelial-expressed scavenger receptors is discussed. There is increasing evidence that some endothelial-expressed scavenger receptors are able to directly bind leukocyte-expressed ligands and subsequently act as adhesion molecules in the trafficking of leukocytes in lymphatic and vascular tissues. Here, we cover the current literature on this alternative role for endothelial-expressed scavenger receptors and also speculate on their therapeutic potential.

Abstract
CD45 is an evolutionary highly conserved receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase exclusively expressed on all nucleated cells of the hematopoietic system. It is characterized by the expression of several isoforms, specific to a certain cell type and the developmental or activation status of the cell. CD45 is one of the key players in the initiation of T cell receptor signaling by controlling the activation of the Src family protein-tyrosine kinases Lck and Fyn. CD45 deficiency results in T- and B-lymphocyte dysfunction in the form of severe combined immune deficiency. It also plays a significant role in autoimmune diseases and cancer as well as in infectious diseases including fungal infections. The knowledge collected on CD45 biology is rather vast, but it remains unclear whether all findings in rodent immune cells also apply to human CD45. This review focuses on human CD45 expression and function and provides an overview on its ligands and role in human pathology.

Abstract
The mannose receptor (MR) is an endocytic receptor involved in serum homeostasis and antigen presentation. Here, we identify the MR as a direct regulator of CD8(+) T-cell activity. We demonstrate that MR expression on dendritic cells (DCs) impaired T-cell cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. This regulatory effect of the MR was mediated by a direct interaction with CD45 on the T cell, inhibiting its phosphatase activity, which resulted in up-regulation of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated Protein 4 (CTLA-4) and the induction of T-cell tolerance. Inhibition of CD45 prevented expression of B-cell lymphoma 6 (Bcl-6), a transcriptional inhibitor that directly bound the CTLA-4 promoter and regulated its activity. These data demonstrate that endocytic receptors expressed on DCs contribute to the regulation of T-cell functionality.

Abstract
FoxP3(+) Treg cells and anergic T cells are the two regulatory phenotypes of T-cell responses associated with helminth infection. Here, we examine the T-cell responses in mice during Fasciola hepatica infection, and to its tegumental coat antigens (FhTeg) that are shed from the fluke every 2-3 h. FhTeg comprises a rich source of glycoproteins, mainly oligomannose N-glycans that bind to mannose receptor. This study demonstrated a novel mechanism for the T-cell unresponsiveness observed during F. hepatica infection and after injection with FhTeg. Markers of T-cell anergy, such as GRAIL, EGR2, ICOS, and ITCH, are enhanced amongst CD4(+) T-cell populations during infection and following FhTeg injection. This is characterized by a lack of cytokine responses and reduced proliferative activity, which can be reversed with the addition of IL-2. FhTeg-activated dendritic cells (DCs) suppress T cells in vitro as measured by enhanced GRAIL and CTLA4 by RNA and suppressed cytokine expression in anti-CD3 stimulated CD4(+) T cells. FhTeg-treated DCs have enhanced MR expression, which is critical for DC-CD4(+) T-cell communication. Taken together, this study presents markers of anergy in a mouse model of F. hepatica infection, and improves our understanding of host-pathogen interactions and how helminths modulate host immunity.

Abstract
Ag delivery to specific APCs is an attractive approach in developing strategies for vaccination. CD169+ macrophages in the marginal zone of the spleen represent a suitable target for delivery of Ag because of their strategic location, which is optimal for the capture of blood‐borne Ag and their close proximity to B cells and T cells in the white pulp. Here we show that Ag targeting to CD169+ macrophages in mice resulted in strong, isotype‐switched, high‐affinity Ab production and the preferential induction and long‐term persistence of Ag‐specific GC B cells and follicular Th cells. In agreement with these observations, CD169+ macrophages retained intact Ag, induced cognate activation of B cells, and increased expression of costimulatory molecules upon activation. In addition, macrophages were required for the production of cytokines that promote B‐cell responses. Our results identify CD169+ macrophages as promoters of high‐affinity humoral immune responses and emphasize the value of CD169 as target for Ag delivery to improve vaccine responses.

Abstract
The disaccharide N,N'-di-N-acetyllactose diamine (LacdiNAc, GalNAcβ1-4GlcNAcβ) is found in a limited number of extracellular matrix glycoproteins and neuropeptide hormones indicating a protein-specific transfer of GalNAc by the glycosyltransferases β4GalNAc-T3/T4. Whereas previous studies have revealed evidence for peptide determinants as controlling elements in LacdiNAc biosynthesis, we report here on an entirely independent conformational control of GalNAc transfer by single TFF (Trefoil factor) domains as high stringency determinants. Human TFF2 was recombinantly expressed in HEK-293 cells as a wild type full-length probe (TFF2-Fl, containing TFF domains P1 and P2), as single P1 or P2 domain probes, as a series of Cys/Gly mutant forms with aberrant domain structures, and as a double point-mutated probe (T68Q/F59Q) lacking aromatic residues within a hydrophobic patch. The N-glycosylation probes were analyzed by mass spectrometry for their glycoprofiles. In agreement with natural gastric TFF2, the recombinant full-length and single domain probes expressed nearly exclusively fucosylated LacdiNAc on bi-antennary complex-type chains indicating that a single TFF domain was sufficient to induce transfer of this modification. Contrasting to this, the Cys/Gly mutants showed strongly reduced LacdiNAc levels and instead preponderant LacNAc expression. The probe with point mutations of two highly conserved aromatic residues in loop 3 (T68Q/F59Q) revealed that these are essential determinant components, as the probe lacked LacdiNAc expression. The structural features of the LacdiNAc-inducing determinant on human TFF2 are discussed on the basis of crystal structures of porcine TFF2, and a series of extracellular matrix-related LacdiNAc-positive glycoproteins detected as novel candidate proteins in the secretome of HEK-293 cells.

Abstract
Sialoadhesin (Sn, also known as Siglec-1 and CD169) is a macrophage-restricted cell surface receptor that is conserved across mammals. Sn is a member of the sialic acid-binding IgG-like lectin (Siglec) family of proteins characterized by affinity to specifically sialylated ligands, and under normal conditions is expressed on subsets of macrophages in secondary lymphoid tissues, such as lymph node and spleen. However, Sn-positive macrophages can also be found in a variety of pathological conditions, including (autoimmune) inflammatory infiltrates and tumours. Sn has been shown to contribute to sialylated pathogen uptake, antigen presentation and lymphocyte proliferation, and to influence both immunity and tolerance. This review presents Sn as a macrophage-specific marker of inflammation and immunoregulation with the potential to becoming an important biomarker for immunologically active macrophages and a target for therapy.

Abstract
In the human stomach, the peptide trefoil factor family 2 (TFF2) is secreted together with the mucin MUC6 by mucous neck cells (MNCs) and antral gland cells. TFF2 is strongly associated with the gastric mucus and promotes gastric restitution. Here, TFF2 was purified from the human corpus and antrum, respectively, by size-exclusion chromatography, and the N-linked glycan structure at N-15 of the mature peptide was determined. As a hallmark, the unusual monofucosylated N,N'-diacetylhexosediamine (tentatively assigned as GalNAcβ1 → 4GlcNAc, LacdiNAc) modification was detected as the terminal structure of a bi-antennary complex type N-glycan exhibiting also core fucosylation. Replicate analyses did not show microheterogeneities in the fraction of peptide-N-glycosidase F cleaved and permethylated N-glycans when analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS). On the glycopeptide level, a minor glycan microheterogeneity was evident in liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization (ESI)-MS, demonstrating the presence of underfucosylated species. The tryptic TFF2 N-glycopeptide p34-39 (LSPHNR N-glycosylated with Fuc3Hex3HexNAc6) was identified by both ESI-tandem mass spectrometry and MALDI-post-source decay analysis. Lectin analyses with the Wisteria floribunda agglutinin indicated the potential presence of LacdiNAc terminating glycans and revealed minor differences between TFF2 from fundic units, i.e. MNCs, and antral units, i.e. antral gland cells. Strikingly, on the level of the primary structure, there was no indication that the formation of the proposed LacdiNAc structure is cis-controlled by a peptidic determinant related to the published sequences.

Abstract
The MR is a highly effective endocytic receptor with a broad binding specificity encompassing ligands of microbial and endogenous origin and a poorly characterized ability to modulate cellular activation. This review provides an update of the latest developments in the field. It discusses how MR biology might be affected by glycosylation and proteolytic processing, MR involvement in antigen delivery, and the potential contribution of MR to T cell differentiation and cellular activation. Further understanding of these areas will, no doubt, inform the design of novel, therapeutic tools for improved vaccination, control of inflammation, and tumor chemotherapy, which will benefit from exploiting MR-efficient internalization properties and unique pattern of expression.

Abstract
The terminal modification of glycans by β4 addition of N-acetylgalactosamine to N-acetylglucosamine with formation of the N,N-diacetyllactosediamine (LacdiNAc) moiety has been well documented for a number of N-linked glycoproteins and peptides, like neurohormones. Much less is known about O-glycoproteins in this regard because only human zona pellucida glycoprotein 3 (ZP3) and bovine proopiomelanocortin were reported to be LacdiNAc-modified. In searching for mammalian proteins modified with O-linked LacdiNAc we identified six positive species among nine endogenous and recombinant O-glycoproteins, which were extracellular matrix, or matrix-related proteins. These are ZP3 and the five novel LacdiNAc-positive species ECM1, AMACO, nidogen-1, α-dystroglycan, and neurofascin. The mass spectrometric analyses revealed a core 2-based tetrasaccharide as the common structural basis of O-linked LacdiNAc that could be further modified, similar to the type 2 LacNAc termini, with fucose, sialic acid, or sulfate. Here, we provide structural evidence for a novel type of mucin-type O-glycans that is strictly specific for LacdiNAc termini: sugar phosphorylation with formation of GalNAcβ1-4(phospho-)GlcNAc. The structural details of the phosphatase-labile compound were elucidated by MS(2) analysis of tetralysine complexes and by MS(n) measurements of the permethylated glycan alditols. Phospho-LacdiNAc was detected in human HEK-293 as well as in mouse myoblast cells and in bovine brain tissue.

Abstract
Glycosylation affects many essential T cell processes and is intrinsically controlled throughout the lifetime of a T cell. CD43 and CD45 are the two most abundant glycoproteins on the T cell surface and are decorated with O- and N-glycans. Global T cell glycosylation and specific glycosylation of CD43 and CD45 are modulated during thymocyte development and T cell activation; T cells control the type and abundance of glycans decorating CD43 and CD45 by regulating expression of glycosyltransferases and glycosidases. Additionally, T cells regulate glycosylation of CD45 by expressing alternatively spliced isoforms of CD45 that have different glycan attachment sites. The glycophenotype of CD43 and CD45 on T cells influences how T cells interact with the extracellular environment, including how T cells interact with endogenous lectins. This review focuses on changes in glycosylation of CD43 and CD45 occurring throughout T cell development and activation and the role that glycosylation plays in regulating T cell processes, such as migration, T cell receptor signaling, and apoptosis.

Abstract
Siglecs are expressed on most white blood cells of the immune system and are known to modulate the activity of cell signaling receptors via regulatory motifs in their cytoplasmic domains. This immunoglobulin subfamily of coreceptors recognize sialic acid containing glycans as ligands, which are found on glycoproteins and glycolipids of all mammalian cells. By virtue of their ability to recognize this common structural element, siglecs are increasingly recognized for their ability to help immune cells distinguish between self and nonself, and dampen autoimmune responses.

Abstract
Sialoadhesin (Sn) is a macrophage-restricted endocytic receptor involved in cell-cell, cell-matrix and cell-pathogen interactions. Recently, porcine Sn (pSn) was shown to be involved in signaling and lately Sn is gaining interest as a potential target for immunotherapy. However, little is known about the effect of ligand binding to Sn on macrophage effector functions. In this study, we tested the effect of antibody binding to pSn on macrophage viability, phagocytosis of microspheres, uptake and processing of soluble antigens, reactive oxygen/nitrogen species production, MHC I and MHC II cell surface expression and cytokine production. This was done by treatment of porcine primary alveolar macrophages with the pSn-specific mAb 41D3, or an isotype-matched control mAb. No significant effect on most effector functions under study was observed, except for a significant reduction of phagocytosis. Thus, antibody binding to pSn can downregulate phagocytosis, which could have implications on homeostasis, infectious and immune diseases, and immunotherapy.

Abstract
The mannose receptor (MR) is an endocytic type I membrane molecule with a broad ligand specificity that is involved in both hemostasis and pathogen recognition. Membrane-anchored MR is cleaved by a metalloproteinase into functional soluble MR (sMR) composed of the extracellular domains of intact MR. Although sMR production was initially considered a constitutive process, enhanced MR shedding has been observed in response to the fungal pathogen Pneumocystis carinii. In this work, we have investigated the mechanism mediating enhanced MR shedding in response to fungi. We show that other fungal species, including Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus, together with zymosan, a preparation of the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mimic the effect of P. carinii on sMR production and that this effect takes place mainly through β-glucan recognition. Additionally, we demonstrate that MR cleavage in response to C. albicans and bioactive particulate β-glucan requires expression of dectin-1. Our data, obtained using specific inhibitors, are consistent with the canonical Syk-mediated pathway triggered by dectin-1 being mainly responsible for inducing MR shedding, with Raf-1 being partially involved. As in the case of steady-state conditions, MR shedding in response to C. albicans and β-glucan particles requires metalloprotease activity. The induction of MR shedding by dectin-1 has clear implications for the role of MR in fungal recognition, as sMR was previously shown to retain the ability to bind fungal pathogens and can interact with numerous host molecules, including lysosomal hydrolases. Thus, MR cleavage could also impact on the magnitude of inflammation during fungal infection.

Abstract
Defining where and in what form lymphocytes encounter antigen is fundamental to understanding how immune responses occur. Although knowledge of the recognition of antigen by CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells has advanced greatly, understanding of the dynamics of B cell-antigen encounters has lagged. With the application of advanced imaging approaches, encounters of this third kind are now being brought into focus. Multiple processes facilitate these encounters, from the filtering functions of lymphoid tissues and migration paths of B cells to the antigen-presenting properties of macrophages and follicular dendritic cells. This Review will discuss how these factors work together in the lymph node to ensure efficient and persistent exposure of B cells to diverse forms of antigen and thus effective triggering of the humoral response.

Abstract
Macrophages, a major component of innate immune defence, express a large repertoire of different classes of pattern recognition receptors and other surface antigens which determine the immunologic and homeostatic potential of these versatile cells. In the light of present knowledge ofmacrophage surface antigens, we discuss self versus nonself recognition, microbicidal effector functions and self tolerance in the innate immune system.

Abstract
The use of chimaeric molecules bearing tags easily recognised by secondary reagents has facilitated the discovery of protein-protein and protein-carbohydrate interactions using binding assays in situ, in solution and in solid phase. In this chapter we describe our experience in the use of proteins containing selected regions of the mannose receptor fused to the Fc region of human IgG1 or murine IgG2b. Using these reagents we have discovered new and unexpected ligands for the mannose receptor. These ligands were first detected in tissue section using standard histological techniques or ligand blots of whole tissue lysates, identified using affinity chromatography and N-terminal protein sequencing and confirmed using ligand blots or solid-phase-binding assays using purified proteins. These findings have dramatically changed the way we think about this molecule.

Abstract
The importance of the innate immune system as a first line defence against pathogenic challenge has long been recognised. Over the last decade the identity of many of the key molecules mediating innate host defence have been clarified and a model of self/ nonself discrimination by families of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) has emerged. Although a large amount of information is now available concerning the action of these innate immune molecules at the level of the cell and organism, little is known about the molecular interface between pathogens and innate immune recognition molecules. In this chapter the molecular basis for innate immune discrimination of a wide variety of pathogen derived molecules is discussed in the context of the emerging literature.

Abstract
Abstract
Macrophage mannose receptor (MR) participates in pathogen recognition, clearance of endogenous serum glycoproteins, and antigen presentation. MR is also present on lymphatic vessels, where its function is unknown. Here we show that migration of lymphocytes from the skin into the draining lymph nodes through the afferent lymphatics is reduced in MR-deficient mice, while the structure of lymphatic vasculature remains normal in these animals. Moreover, in a tumor model the primary tumors grow significantly bigger in MR−/− mice than in the wild-type (WT) controls, whereas the regional lymph node metastases are markedly smaller. Adhesion of both normal lymphocytes and tumor cells to lymphatic vessels is significantly decreased in MR-deficient mice. The ability of macrophages to present tumor antigens is indistinguishable between the 2 genotypes. Thus, MR on lymphatic endothelial cells is involved in leukocyte trafficking and contributes to the metastatic behavior of cancer cells. Blocking of MR may provide a new approach to controlling inflammation and cancer metastasis by targeting the lymphatic vasculature.

Abstract
A limited number of glycoproteins including luteinizing hormone and carbonic anhydrase-VI (CA6) bear N-linked oligosaccharides that are modified with beta1,4-linked N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc). The selective addition of GalNAc to these glycoproteins requires that the beta1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (betaGT) recognize both the oligosaccharide acceptor and a peptide recognition determinant on the substrate glycoprotein. We report here that two recently cloned betaGTs, betaGT3 and betaGT4, that are able to transfer GalNAc to GlcNAc in beta1,4-linkage display the necessary glycoprotein specificity in vivo. Both betaGTs transfer GalNAc to N-linked oligosaccharides on the luteinizing hormone alpha subunit and CA6 but not to those on transferrin (Trf). A single peptide recognition determinant encoded in the carboxyl-terminal 19-amino acid sequence of bovine CA6 mediates transfer of GalNAc to each of its two N-linked oligosaccharides. The addition of this 19-amino acid sequence to the carboxyl terminus of Trf confers full acceptor activity onto Trf for both betaGT3 and betaGT4 in vivo. The complete 19-amino acid sequence is required for optimal GalNAc addition in vivo, indicating that the peptide sequence is both necessary and sufficient for recognition by betaGT3 and betaGT4.

Abstract
Cell surfaces in the immune system are richly equipped with a complex mixture of glycans, which can be recognized by diverse glycan-binding proteins. The Siglecs are a family of sialic-acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins that are thought to promote cell-cell interactions and regulate the functions of cells in the innate and adaptive immune systems through glycan recognition. In this Review, we describe recent studies on signalling mechanisms and discuss the potential role of Siglecs in triggering endocytosis and in pathogen recognition. Finally, we discuss the postulated functions of the recently discovered CD33-related Siglecs and consider the factors that seem to be driving their rapid evolution.

Abstract
Sorting protein-related receptor (SorLA/LR11) is a highly conserved mosaic receptor that is expressed by cells in a number of different tissues including principal cells of the collecting ducts in the kidney and neurons in the central and peripheral nervous systems. SorLA/LR11 has features that indicate it serves as a sorting receptor shuttling between the plasma membrane, endosomes, and the Golgi. We have found that a fraction of SorLA/LR11 that is synthesized in the kidney and the brain bears N-linked oligosaccharides that are modified with terminal beta1,4-linked GalNAc-4-SO(4). Oligosaccharides located in the vacuolar sorting (Vps) 10p domain (Vps10p domain) are modified with beta1,4-linked GalNAc when the Vps10p domain is expressed in cells along with either of two recently cloned protein-specific beta1,4GalNAc-transferases, GalNAcTIII and GalNAcTIV. Either of two sequences with basic amino acids located within the Vps10p domain is able to mediate recognition by these beta1,4GalNAc-transferases. The highly specific modification of oligosaccharides in the Vps10p domain of SorLA/LR11 with terminal GalNAc-4-SO(4) suggests that this unusual modification may modulate the interaction of SorLA/LR11 with proteins and influence their trafficking.

Abstract
Using a novel mAb specific for mouse Ly49B, we report here that Ly49B, the last remaining member of the C57 Ly49 family to be characterized, is expressed at low levels on approximately 1.5% of spleen cells, none which are NK cells or T cells but which instead belong to several distinct subpopulations of myeloid cells defined by expression of CD11b and different levels of Gr1. Much larger proportions of bone marrow and peritoneal cells expressed Ly49B, all being CD11b+ and comprising multiple subpopulations defined by light scatter, F4/80, and Gr1 expression. Costaining for Ly49Q, also expressed on myeloid cells, revealed that Ly49B and Ly49Q were most strongly expressed on nonoverlapping subpopulations, Ly49Q(high) cells being mostly B220+CD4+ and/or CD8+, Ly49B+ cells lacking these markers. Myeloid populations that developed from bone marrow progenitors in vitro frequently coexpressed both Ly49B and Ly49Q, and Ly49B expression could be up-regulated by LPS, alpha-IFN, and gamma-IFN, often independently of Ly49Q. PCR analysis revealed that cultured NK cells and T cells contained Ly49B transcripts, and Ly49B expression could be detected on NK cells cultured in IL-12 plus IL-18, and on an immature NK cell line. Immunohistochemical studies showed that Ly49B expression in tissues overlapped with but was distinct from that of all other myeloid molecules examined, being particularly prominent in the lamina propria and dome of Peyer's patches, implicating an important role of Ly49B in gut immunobiology. In transfected cells, Ly49B was found to associate with SHP-1, SHP-2, and SHIP in a manner strongly regulated by intracellular phosphorylation events.

Abstract
Macrophages are a prominent component of the effector cell compartment in a number of CD4+ T cell-mediated organ-specific autoimmune diseases. In this study, we investigated the role of the sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin sialoadhesin (Sn, Siglec-1) in a model of interphotoreceptor retinal binding protein peptide-induced experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis in mice with targeted deletion of Sn. Our data show that compared with wild-type mice, experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis is reduced in severity in the initial stages in the Sn knockout (KO) mice. In addition, there is a reduction in the proliferative capacity of T cells from the KO mice draining lymph nodes after immunization with interphotoreceptor retinal binding protein peptides, which is manifest some days before disease onset and persists for the duration of disease. Furthermore, activated T cells from the draining lymph nodes of Sn KO mice secrete lower levels of IFN-gamma. The data suggest a role for Sn in "fine tuning" the immune response to autoantigens by modulating T cell priming.

Abstract
Sialic acids are a family of acidic sugars with a 9-carbon backbone, prominently expressed in animals of deuterostome lineage. Siglecs are the largest family of vertebrate endogenous receptors that recognize glycoconjugates containing sialic acids. Although a few Siglecs are well-conserved throughout vertebrate evolution and show similar binding preference regardless of the species of origin, most others, particularly the CD33-related subfamily of Siglecs, show marked inter-species differences in repertoire, sequence, and binding preference. The diversification of CD33-related Siglecs may be driven by direct competition against pathogens, and/or by necessity to catch up with the changing landscape of endogenous glycans, which may in turn be changing to escape exploitation by other pathogens.

Abstract
Sialoadhesin (Sn, also called Siglec-1 or CD169) is a transmembrane receptor and the prototypic member of the Siglec family of sialic acid binding immunoglobulin-like lectins. It is expressed on specialized subsets of resident macrophages in hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues and on inflammatory macrophages. In order to investigate its function, we generated Sn-deficient mice and confirmed that these mice are true nulls by fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis and immunohistochemistry. Mice deficient in Sn were viable and fertile and showed no developmental abnormalities. Analysis of cell populations revealed no differences in bone marrow, peritoneal cavity, and thymus, but there was a small increase in CD8 T cells and a decrease in B220-positive cells in spleens and lymph nodes of Sn-deficient mice. Furthermore, in spleen there was a slight decrease in follicular B cells with an increase in numbers of marginal zone B cells. B- and T-cell maturation as well as responses to stimulation with thioglycolate were only slightly affected by Sn deficiency. Immunoglobulin titers in Sn-deficient mice were significantly decreased for immunoglobulin M (IgM) but similar for IgG subclasses. These results suggest a role for sialoadhesin in regulating cells of the immune system rather than in influencing steady-state hematopoiesis.

Abstract
The mannose receptor (MR) is a type I membrane molecule with two lectin activities. Mannose recognition takes place through the C-type lectin-like carbohydrate recognition domains, while recognition of sulphated glycans is mediated by the cysteine-rich domain (CR). In murine spleen CR ligands are present in a subpopulation of macrophages (Mphi) placed in the marginal zone whereas MR-expressing cells consisting of Mphi and nonvascular endothelia are located in the red pulp. No colocalisation of MR with CR ligands has been observed in murine tissues. In this manuscript we describe the distribution of MR and CR ligands in human spleen. In this organ we have detected a perfect colocalisation of MR with CR ligands in Lyve-1+ cells lining venous sinuses. These cells form a physical barrier for blood cells as they need to migrate through the sinuses in order to exit the splenic parenchyma and, in this way, contribute to the unique filtration function of this organ. Furthermore, unlike murine spleen, CD68+ red pulp Mphi lack MR expression. Our results suggest an unexpected contribution of MR to splenic function through the recognition of sulphated ligands that could influence the filtering capability of this organ.

Abstract
We have cloned two GalNAc-4-sulfotransferases, GalNAc-4-ST1 and GalNAc-4-ST2, that transfer sulfate to terminal beta1,4-linked GalNAc. In conjunction with the action of protein-specific beta1,4GalNAc-transferases, GalNAc-4-ST1 and GalNAc-4-ST2 account for the presence of terminal beta1,4-linked GalNAc-4-SO(4) on glycoproteins such as lutropin, thyrotropin (TSH), proopiomelanocortin (POMC), carbonic anhydratase-VI (CA-VI), and tenascin-R. GalNAc-4-ST1 and GalNAc-4-ST2 can be distinguished by their differing specificity for oligosaccharide acceptors and temperature lability. The differences in properties have been used to show that the levels of GalNAc-4-ST1 and GalNAc-4-ST2 activity are proportionate to the levels of their respective transcripts. Furthermore, we have found that both transcript and activity levels of GalNAc-4-ST1 and GalNAc-4-ST2 vary widely among different tissues indicating that the regulation of their expression differs. Differences in specificity and the regulation of expression may account for existence of two GalNAc-4-sulfotransferases in vivo. The highest levels of both GalNAc-4-ST1 and GalNAc-4-ST2 transcripts are present in the pituitary of the mouse with multiple cell types that produce glycoproteins terminating with GalNAc-4-SO(4). Genetic ablation of both GalNAc-4-ST1 and GalNAc-4-ST2 may be necessary to alter the pattern and/or extent of sulfate addition to terminal beta1,4GalNAc in tissues such as pituitary.

Abstract
Animal glycan-recognizing proteins can be broadly classified into two groups-lectins (which typically contain an evolutionarily conserved carbohydrate-recognition domain [CRD]) and sulfated glycosaminoglycan (SGAG)-binding proteins (which appear to have evolved by convergent evolution). Proteins other than antibodies and T-cell receptors that mediate glycan recognition via immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains are called "I-type lectins." The major homologous subfamily of I-type lectins with sialic acid (Sia)-binding properties and characteristic amino-terminal structural features are called the "Siglecs" (Sia-recognizing Ig-superfamily lectins). The Siglecs can be divided into two groups: an evolutionarily conserved subgroup (Siglecs-1, -2, and -4) and a CD33/Siglec-3-related subgroup (Siglecs-3 and -5-13 in primates), which appear to be rapidly evolving. This article provides an overview of historical and current information about the Siglecs.

Abstract
The macrophage mannose receptor (MR) appears to play an important role in the binding and phagocytosis of several human pathogens, but its phagocytic property and signaling pathways have been poorly defined. The general strategy to explore such topics is to express the protein of interest in nonphagocytic cells, but in the case of MR, there are few reports using the full-length MR cDNA. When we searched to clone de novo the human MR (hMR) cDNA, problems were encountered, and full-length hMR cDNA was only obtained after devising a complex cloning strategy. Chinese hamster ovary cells, which have a fully functional phagocytic machinery when expressing professional phagocytic receptors, were stably transfected, and cell clones expressing hMR at quantitatively comparable levels than human macrophages or J774E cells were obtained. They exhibited a functional hMR-mediated endocytic capacity of a soluble ligand but failed to ingest classical particulate ligands of MR such as zymosan, Mycobacterium kansasii, or trimannoside bovine serum albumin-coated latex beads. Transient expression of hMR in two human cell lines did not provide a phagocytic capacity either. In conclusion, we show that MR is not a professional phagocytic receptor, as it does not possess the ability to promote particle ingestion in nonphagocytic cells on its own. We propose that MR is a binding receptor, which requires a partner to trigger phagocytosis in some specialized cells such as macrophages. Our new expression vector could represent a useful tool to study the receptor and its partnership further.

Abstract
Several lines of evidence indicate that some glycoconjugates are efficient effectors of the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) conversion into its pathogenic (PrP(Sc)) isoform. To assess how glycoconjugate glycan moieties participate in the biogenesis of PrP(Sc), an exhaustive comparative analysis of the expression of about 200 glycosylation-related genes was performed on prion-infected or not, hypothalamus-derived GT1 cells by hybridization of DNA microarrays, semiquantitative RT-PCR, and biochemical assays. A significant up- (30-fold) and down- (17-fold) regulation of the expression of the ChGn1 and Chst8 genes, respectively, was observed in prion-infected cells. ChGn1 and Chst8 are involved in the initiation of the synthesis of chondroitin sulfate and in the 4-O-sulfation of non-reducing N-acetylgalactosamine residues, respectively. A possible role for a hyposulfated chondroitin in PrP(Sc) accumulation was evidenced at the protein level and by determination of chondroitin and heparan sulfate amounts. Treatment of Sc-GT1 cells with a heparan mimetic (HM2602) induced an important reduction of the amount of PrP(Sc), associated with a total reversion of the transcription pattern of the N-acetylgalactosamine-4-O-sulfotransferase 8. It suggests a link between the genetic control of 4-O-sulfation and PrP(Sc) accumulation.

Abstract
It is now appreciated that the range of ligands interacting with C-type lectin type receptors on antigen presenting cells includes endogenous self-molecules as well as pathogens and pathogen-derived ligands. Interestingly, not all interactions between these receptors and pathogenic ligands have beneficial outcomes, and it appears that some pathogens have evolved immunoevasive or immunosuppressive activities through receptors such as DC-SIGN. In addition to this, recent data indicate that the well-characterised macrophage mannose receptor is not essential to host defence against fungal pathogens, as previously thought, but has an important role in regulating endogenous glycoprotein clearance. New studies have also demonstrated that different ligand binding and/or sensing receptors collaborate for full and effective immune responses.

Abstract
In the sensitization phase of contact hypersensitivity in mice, dermal macrophages (MOs) expressing MO galactose-type C-type lectin1 (MGL1) are known to migrate from the dermis to lymph nodes (LNs) where they accumulate in the subcapsular sinus, interfollicular regions, and areas surrounding high endothelial venules. We hypothesize that the interactions between MGL1 and its ligands determine the localizations of MGL1-positive cells within the LNs. In the present study, our major aim was to isolate MGL1 counter-receptor(s) from lysates of LNs using affinity chromatography with immobilized recombinant MGL1. Fractions bound and eluted with EDTA were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. One of the predominant components was sialoadhesin (Sn, Siglec-1). Sn from lysates of LNs was immobilized on microtiter plates precoated with anti-Sn monoclonal antibody, and binding of recombinant MGL1 and adhesion of cells expressing MGL1 were tested. The binding of recombinant MGL1 to Sn was shown to be dependent on Ca2+ and N-glycans on Sn. MGL1-transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells adhered to the Sn-coated plates, whereas mock transfectants did not. Immunohistochemical localization of anti-Sn monoclonal antibody in LN coincided with the subcapsular sinus area to which recombinant MGL1 was bound. Furthermore, the distribution of MGL1+ cells after sensitization with FITC was demonstrated to overlap with that of Sn within the subcapsular sinus of draining LNs. These results suggest that Sn acts as an endogenous counter-receptor for MGL1.

Abstract
The breakdown of the barriers formed by extracellular matrix proteins is a pre-requisite for all processes of tissue remodeling. Matrix degradation reactions take part in specific physiological events in the healthy organism but also represent a crucial step in cancer invasion. These degradation processes involve a highly organized interplay between proteases and their cellular binding sites as well as specific substrates and internalization receptors. This review article is focused on two components, the urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) and the uPAR-associated protein (uPARAP, also designated Endo180), that are considered crucially engaged in matrix degradation. uPAR and uPARAP have highly diverse functions, but on certain cell types they interact with each other in a process that is still incompletely understood. uPAR is a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein on the surface of various cell types that serves to bind the urokinase plasminogen activator and localize the activation reactions in the proteolytic cascade system of plasminogen activation. uPARAP is an integral membrane protein with a pronounced role in the internalization of collagen for intracellular degradation. Both receptors have additional functions that are currently being unraveled. The present discussion of uPAR and uPARAP is centered on their protein structure and molecular and cellular function.
