Abstract
Mammalian lung is the important organ for ventilation and exchange of air and blood. Fresh air and venous blood are constantly delivered through the airway and vascular tree to the alveolus. Based on this, the airways and alveolis are persistently exposed to the external environment and are easily suffered from toxins, irritants and pathogens. For example, acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a common cause of respiratory failure in critical patients, whose typical pathological characters are diffuse epithelial and endothelial damage resulting in excessive accumulation of inflammatory fluid in the alveolar cavity. The supportive treatment is the main current treatment for ALI/ARDS with the lack of targeted effective treatment strategies. However, ALI/ARDS needs more targeted treatment measures. Therefore, it is extremely urgent to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms that maintain alveolar epithelial barrier and airway integrity. Previous researches have shown that the lung epithelial cells with tissue stem cell function have the ability to repair and regenerate after injury. Also, it is able to regulate the phenotype and function of innate immune cells involving in regeneration of tissue repair. Meanwhile, we emphasize that interaction between the lung epithelial cells and innate immune cells is more supportive to repair and regenerate in the lung epithelium following acute lung injury. We reviewed the recent advances in injury and repair of lung epithelial stem cells and innate immune cells in ALI/ARDS, concentrating on alveolar type 2 cells and alveolar macrophages and their contribution to post-injury repair behavior of ALI/ARDS through the latest potential molecular communication mechanisms. This will help to develop new research strategies and therapeutic targets for ALI/ARDS.

[PMID: 39039207 DOI: 10.1038/s41418-024-01347-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 07/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024] Open
Abstract
CD47 is a ubiquitously expressed cell surface receptor, which is widely known for preventing macrophage-mediated phagocytosis by interacting with signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα) on the surface of macrophages. In addition to its role in phagocytosis, emerging studies have reported numerous noncanonical functions of CD47 that include regulation of various cellular processes such as proliferation, migration, apoptosis, differentiation, stress responses, and metabolism. Despite lacking an extensive cytoplasmic signaling domain, CD47 binds to several cytoplasmic proteins, particularly upon engaging with its secreted matricellular ligand, thrombospondin 1. Indeed, the regulatory functions of CD47 are greatly influenced by its interacting partners. These interactions are often cell- and context-specific, adding a further level of complexity. This review addresses the downstream cell-intrinsic signaling pathways regulated by CD47 in various cell types and environments. Some of the key pathways modulated by this receptor include the PI3K/AKT, MAPK/ERK, and nitric oxide signaling pathways, as well as those implicated in glucose, lipid, and mitochondrial metabolism. These pathways play vital roles in maintaining tissue homeostasis, highlighting the importance of understanding the phagocytosis-independent functions of CD47. Given that CD47 expression is dysregulated in a variety of cancers, improving our understanding of the cell-intrinsic signals regulated by this molecule will help advance the development of CD47-targeted therapies.

Abstract
The ubiquitously expressed transmembrane glycoprotein CD47 participates in various important physiological cell functions, including phagocytosis, apoptosis, proliferation, adhesion, and migration, through interactions with its ligands, including the inhibitory receptor signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα), secreted glycoprotein thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), and integrins. Elevated expression of CD47 is observed in a wide range of cancer cells as a mechanism for evading the immune system, blocking the interaction between the CD47 and SIRPα is the most advanced and promising therapeutic approach currently investigated in multiple clinical trials. The widely held view that a single type of CD47 protein acts through membrane interactions has been challenged by the discovery of a large cohort of CD47 proteins with cell-, tissue-, and temporal-specific expression and functional profiles. These profiles have been derived from a single gene through alternative splicing and post-translational modifications, such as glycosylation, pyroglutamate modification, glycosaminoglycan modification, and proteolytic cleavage and, to some extent, via specific CD47 clustering in aging and tumor cells and the regulation of its subcellular localization by a pre-translational modification, alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA). This review explores the origins and molecular properties of CD47 proteoforms and their roles under physiological and pathological conditions, mentioning the new methods to improve the response to the therapeutic inhibition of CD47-SIRPα immune checkpoints, contributing to the understanding of CD47 proteoform diversity and identification of novel clinical targets and immune-related therapeutic candidates.

Abstract
Welding fumes contain harmful metals and gas by-products associated with development of lung dysfunction, asthma, bronchitis, and lung cancer. Two prominent welding fume particulate metal components are nanosized iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) which might induce oxidative stress and inflammation resulting in pulmonary injury. Welding fume toxicity may be dependent upon metal nanoparticle (NP) components. To examine toxicity of welding fume NP components, a system was constructed for controlled and continuous NP generation from commercial welding and customized electrodes with varying proportions of Fe and Mn. Aerosols generated consisted of nanosized particles and were compositionally consistent with each electrode. Human alveolar lung A459 epithelial cells were exposed to freshly generated metal NP mixtures at a target concentration of 100 µg/m3 for 6 hr and then harvested for assessment of cytotoxicity, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and alterations in the expression of genes and proteins involved in metal regulation, inflammatory responses, and oxidative stress. Aerosol exposures decreased cell viability and induced increased ROS production. Assessment of gene expression demonstrated variable up-regulation in cellular mechanisms related to metal transport and storage, inflammation, and oxidative stress based upon aerosol composition. Specifically, interleukin-8 (IL-8) demonstrated the most robust changes in both transcriptional and protein levels after exposure. Interleukin-8 has been determined to serve as a primary cytokine mediating inflammatory responses induced by welding fume exposures in alveolar epithelial cells. Overall, this study demonstrated variations in cellular responses to metal NP mixtures suggesting compositional variations in NP content within welding fumes may influence inhalation toxicity.

Abstract
The presence of cell surface protein CD47 allows cancer cells to evade innate and adaptive immune surveillance resulting in metastatic spread. CD47 binds to and activates SIRPα on the surface of myeloid cells, inhibiting their phagocytic activity. On the other hand, CD47 binds the matricellular protein Thrombospondin-1, limiting T-cell activation. Thus, blocking CD47 is a potential therapeutic strategy for preventing brain metastasis. To test this hypothesis, breast cancer patient biopsies were stained with antibodies against CD47 to determine differences in protein expression. An anti-CD47 antibody was used in a syngeneic orthotopic triple-negative breast cancer model, and CD47 null mice were used in a breast cancer brain metastasis model by intracardiac injection of the E0771-Br-Luc cell line. Immunohistochemical staining of patient biopsies revealed an 89% increase in CD47 expression in metastatic brain tumors compared to normal adjacent tissue (p ≤ 0.05). Anti-CD47 treatment in mice bearing brain metastatic 4T1br3 orthotopic tumors reduced tumor volume and tumor weight by over 50% compared to control mice (p ≤ 0.05) and increased IBA1 macrophage/microglia marker 5-fold in tumors compared to control (p ≤ 0.05). Additionally, CD47 blockade increased the M1/M2 macrophage ratio in tumors 2.5-fold (p ≤ 0.05). CD47 null mice had an 89% decrease in metastatic brain burden (p ≤ 0.05) compared to control mice in a brain metastasis model. Additionally, RNA sequencing revealed several uniquely expressed genes and significantly enriched genes related to tissue development, cell death, and cell migration tumors treated with anti-CD47 antibodies. Thus, demonstrating that CD47 blockade affects cancer cell and tumor microenvironment signaling to limit metastatic spread and may be an effective therapeutic for triple-negative breast cancer brain metastasis.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) usually causes acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), or even death in critical ill patients. Immune cell infiltration in inflamed lungs is an important hallmark of ARDS. Macrophages are a type of immune cell that participate in the entire pathogenic trajectory of ARDS and most prominently via their interactions with lung alveolar epithelial cells (AECs). In the early stage of ARDS, classically activated macrophages secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines to clearance of the pathogens which may damage alveolar AECs cell structure and result in cell death. Paradoxically, in late stage of ARDS, anti-inflammatory cytokines secreted by alternatively activated macrophages dampen the inflammation response and promote epithelial regeneration and alveolar structure remodeling. In this review, we discuss the important role of macrophages and AECs in the progression of ARDS.

Abstract
Background The pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D) involves complex genetic susceptibility that impacts pathways regulating host immunity and the target of autoimmune attack, insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells. Interactions between risk variants and environmental factors result in significant heterogeneity in clinical presentation among those who develop T1D. Although genetic risk is dominated by the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II and insulin (INS) gene loci, nearly 150 additional risk variants are significantly associated with the disease, including polymorphisms in immune checkpoint molecules, such as SIRPG. Scope of Review In this review, we summarize the literature related to the T1D-associated risk variants in SIRPG, which include a protein-coding variant (rs6043409, G>A; A263V) and an intronic polymorphism (rs2281808, C>T), and their potential impacts on the immunoregulatory signal regulatory protein (SIRP) family:CD47 signaling axis. We discuss how dysregulated expression or function of SIRPs and CD47 in antigen-presenting cells (APCs), T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and pancreatic β-cells could potentially promote T1D development. Major Conclusions We propose a hypothesis, supported by emerging genetic and functional immune studies, which states a loss of proper SIRP:CD47 signaling may result in increased lymphocyte activation and cytotoxicity and enhanced β-cell destruction. Thus, we present several novel therapeutic strategies for modulation of SIRPs and CD47 to intervene in T1D.

Abstract
CD47 is a cell surface glycoprotein molecule, belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily, binding to various proteins including integrins, thrombospondin-1, and signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα). CD47 is an important tumor antigen for the development and progression of various cancers. This study designed the chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) to bind to the CD47 to inhibit the expression of CD47. We used the complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of the B6H12 mouse antibody grafted onto the IgG1 framework to create the humanized single-chain variable fragment (scFv) with linker (G4S)x3. scFv was used to design the chimeric antigen receptor with the structure CD8signal-CD47scFv-CD8a hinge-CD4TM-CD28-41BB-CD3ζ, which was then transformed into T lymphocytes by the lentivirus to create third generation of CAR-T. Results revealed that the new CAR-T cells efficiently killed A549 cancer cells. CAR-T inhibited the expression of genes involved in metastasis and invasion of cells A549 including beta actin, calreticulin, and cyclooxygenase 2 at mRNA levels.

Abstract
The main function of the lung is to perform gas exchange while maintaining lung homeostasis despite environmental pathogenic and non-pathogenic elements contained in inhaled air. Resident cells must keep lung homeostasis and eliminate pathogens by inducing protective immune response and silently remove innocuous particles. Which lung cell type is crucial for this function is still subject to debate, with reports favoring either alveolar macrophages (AMs) or lung epithelial cells (ECs) including airway and alveolar ECs. AMs are the main immune cells in the lung in steady-state and their function is mainly to dampen inflammatory responses. In addition, they phagocytose inhaled particles and apoptotic cells and can initiate and resolve inflammatory responses to pathogens. Although AMs release a plethora of mediators that modulate immune responses, ECs also play an essential role as they are more than just a physical barrier. They produce anti-microbial peptides and can secrete a variety of mediators that can modulate immune responses and AM functions. Furthermore, ECs can maintain AMs in a quiescent state by expressing anti-inflammatory membrane proteins such as CD200. Thus, AMs and ECs are both very important to maintain lung homeostasis and have to coordinate their action to protect the organism against infection. Thus, AMs and lung ECs communicate with each other using different mechanisms including mediators, membrane glycoproteins and their receptors, gap junction channels, and extracellular vesicles. This review will revisit characteristics and functions of AMs and lung ECs as well as different communication mechanisms these cells utilize to maintain lung immune balance and response to pathogens. A better understanding of the cross-talk between AMs and lung ECs may help develop new therapeutic strategies for lung pathogenesis.

Abstract
CD47, or integrin-associated protein, is a cell surface ligand expressed in low levels by nearly all cells of the body. It plays an integral role in various immune responses as well as autoimmunity, by sending a potent "don't eat me" signal to prevent phagocytosis. A growing body of evidence demonstrates that CD47 is overexpressed in various hematological malignancies and its interaction with SIRPα on the phagocytic cells prevents phagocytosis of cancer cells. Additionally, it is expressed by different cell types in the tumor microenvironment and is required for establishing tumor metastasis. Overexpression of CD47 is thus often associated with poor clinical outcomes. CD47 has emerged as a potential therapeutic target and is being investigated in various preclinical studies as well as clinical trials to prove its safety and efficacy in treating hematological neoplasms. This review focuses on different therapeutic mechanisms to target CD47, either alone or in combination with other cell surface markers, and its pivotal role in impairing tumor growth and metastatic spread of various types of hematological malignancies.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common primary malignancy in the brain, and vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is one of the blood supply methods. Here we investigated the possibility that lncRNAs regulate the stability of transcription factors through the SMD pathway, which affects proliferation, migration, invasion, and the ability to form VMs in glioma. Expression of PABPC5, HCG15, and ZNF331 was detected by real-time qPCR or western blot in glioma. Cell Counting Kit-8, Transwell assays, and in vitro VM tube formation were used to investigate PABPC5, HCG15, and ZNF331 function in cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and VM, respectively. ChIP assays were used to ascertain the interaction betweenZNF331 and LAMC2 or PABPC5. PABPC5 and HCG15 were highly expressed in glioma cells. ZNF331 was lowly expressed. PABPC5 bound HCG15 to increase its stability. Knockdown HCG15 reduced the degradation of ZNF331 mRNA by the SMD pathway. ZNF331 inhibited transcription through binding to the promoter region of LAMC2 and PABPC5 and inhibited the ability to form VMs in glioma cells. The PABPC5/HCG15/ZNF331 feedback loop plays an important role in regulating VM formation in glioma and provides new targets for glioma treatment.

Isenberg JS, Roberts DD. The role of CD47 in pathogenesis and treatment of renal ischemia reperfusion injury. Pediatr Nephrol 2019; 34:2479-2494.

Abstract
Ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury is a process defined by the temporary loss of blood flow and tissue perfusion followed later by restoration of the same. Brief periods of IR can be tolerated with little permanent deficit, but sensitivity varies for different target cells and tissues. Ischemia reperfusion injuries have multiple causes including peripheral vascular disease and surgical interventions that disrupt soft tissue and organ perfusion as occurs in general and reconstructive surgery. Ischemia reperfusion injury is especially prominent in organ transplantation where substantial effort has been focused on protecting the transplanted organ from the consequences of IR. A number of factors mediate IR injury including the production of reactive oxygen species and inflammatory cell infiltration and activation. In the kidney, IR injury is a major cause of acute injury and secondary loss of renal function. Transplant-initiated renal IR is also a stimulus for innate and adaptive immune-mediated transplant dysfunction. The cell surface molecule CD47 negatively modulates cell and tissue responses to stress through limitation of specific homeostatic pathways and initiation of cell death pathways. Herein, a summary of the maladaptive activities of renal CD47 will be considered as well as the possible therapeutic benefit of interfering with CD47 to limit renal IR.

Abstract
The success of cancer immunotherapy on recognition checkpoints for killing cancer cells has raised a great interest of scientists in understanding new and old methods of immunotherapeutic. CD47 (cluster of differentiation 47) is a cell surface glycoprotein and widely expressed on cells, which belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily as a cell membrane receptor which serves in immune therapy. CD47 is an inhibitory receptor expressed on tumor cell surface and interacts with signal receptor protein-alpha (SIPR-α, also named CD172a or SHPS-1) which may escape from immune cells such as macrophage and T cells. Meanwhile, tumor cells express high CD47 protein which may secrete exosomes with high CD47 expression. The high CD47 expression-exosomes could serve the tumor metastasis process and provide transfer convenience for tumors on the microenvironment. CD47 on cancer cells can also affect the migration and invasion of cells. The high CD47 expression on tumor or CTC (circulating tumor cell) surface means the stronger migration and invasion and makes them escape from immune cells for phagocytosis such as T cells, NK (natural killer) cells and macrophage, which could be used for diagnosis and prognosis on cancer patients. Meanwhile, targeting CD47 combined with other biomarkers such as EpCAM (epithelial cell adhesion molecule), CD44, etc on cancer surface could be used to isolate CTCs from patients' blood. In terms of treatment, anti-CD47 antibody combined with another antibody such as anti-PD-L1 (programmed death-ligand 1) antibody or drugs such as rituximab, DOX or oxaliplatin also has better therapeutic effects and antitumor function to tumors. Using nanomaterials as an intermediary for CD47-related immune therapy could greatly increase the therapeutic effect and overcome multiple biological barriers for anti-CD47 antibody in vivo. In this review, we discuss the important role and the function of CD47 in tumor metastasis and also provide a reference for related research.

Epithelial CD47 is critical for mucosal repair in the murine intestine in vivo. Nat Commun 2019; 10:5004.

Abstract
CD47 is a ubiquitously expressed transmembrane glycoprotein that regulates inflammatory responses and tissue repair. Here, we show that normal mice treated with anti-CD47 antibodies, and Cd47-null mice have impaired intestinal mucosal wound healing. Furthermore, intestinal epithelial cell (IEC)-specific loss of CD47 does not induce spontaneous immune-mediated intestinal barrier disruption but results in defective mucosal repair after biopsy-induced colonic wounding or Dextran Sulfate Sodium (DSS)-induced mucosal damage. In vitro analyses using primary cultures of CD47-deficient murine colonic IEC or human colonoid-derived IEC treated with CD47-blocking antibodies demonstrate impaired epithelial cell migration in wound healing assays. Defective wound repair after CD47 loss is linked to decreased epithelial β1 integrin and focal adhesion signaling, as well as reduced thrombospondin-1 and TGF-β1. These results demonstrate a critical role for IEC-expressed CD47 in regulating mucosal repair and raise important considerations for possible alterations in wound healing secondary to therapeutic targeting of CD47. The role of the transmembrane glycoprotein CD47 in healing injured intestinal mucosa is unclear. Here, the authors show that selective loss of CD47 in the murine intestinal epithelium results in defective mucosal repair after colonic wounding, with suggested impaired cell migration in vitro.

Abstract
CD47 functions as a dominant anti-engulfment signal on tumour cells and is overexpressed in various malignant tumours. However, the expression and functional significance of CD47 in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is not completely understood. In the present study, CD47 was demonstrated to be overexpressed in TNBC solid tumours. Moreover, increased CD47 expression was significantly associated with an advanced tumour-node-metastasis stage, lymph node involvement and recurrence. Moreover, CD47 was an unfavourable and independent prognostic factor for 5-year disease-free survival in patients with TNBC. In addition, the expression of CD47 was associated with several markers of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The present study was the first to demonstrate an association between increased expression of CD47 with EMT and poor prognosis of TNBC. Thus, CD47 may be a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for TNBC.

Abstract
AIM Immunotherapies blocking the CD47-SIRPα pathway by targeting CD47 enhance macrophage phagocytosis of neoplastic cells in mouse models. As SIRPα exhibits relatively restricted tissue expression, SIRPα antagonists may be better tolerated than agents targeting CD47, which is ubiquitously expressed in many tissues. Here, we investigated the therapeutic impact of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against CD47 and/or SIRPα on gastroenterological tumors in syngeneic immunocompetent mouse models. METHODS We used in vitro and in vivo phagocytosis assays in C57BL/6J (B6) mice to investigate anti-CD47/SIRPα mAb effects on Hepa1-6 and CMT93 originating from B6 mice. The influence of these mAbs on macrophage transmigration was also assessed. To investigate anti-SIRPα mAb therapy-induced inhibitory effects on sporadic colon cancer growth, we used a CDX2P9.5-NLS Cre;APC + /FLOX (CPC-APC) mouse model. RESULTS Systemic anti-SIRPα mAb administration significantly increased Hepa1-6 and CMT93 cell susceptibility to macrophage phagocytosis, both in vitro and in vivo. Conversely, similarly administered anti-CD47 mAb did not promote macrophage phagocytosis of target cells, whereas cells incubated with anti-CD47 mAb prior to inoculation were more susceptible to macrophage phagocytosis. In vitro cell migration assays revealed that binding with anti-CD47 mAb inhibited macrophage transmigration. Anti-SIRPα mAb treatment inhibited tumor progression in CPC-APC mice and significantly improved overall survival. Anti-CD47 mAb administration in vivo eliminated the phagocytosis-promoting CD47 blockade effect, probably by inhibiting macrophage transmigration/chemotaxis. In contrast, anti-SIRPα mAb exhibited enhanced macrophage phagocytic activity and marked anti-tumor effects against gastroenterological malignancies. CONCLUSION SIRPα mAb augmentation of macrophage phagocytic activity may represent an effective treatment strategy for human gastrointestinal tumors.

Abstract
Primary debulking surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy is the standard treatment for ovarian cancer. Residual disease after primary surgery is associated with poor patient outcome. Previously, we discovered ADH1B to be a molecular biomarker of residual disease. In the current study, we investigated the functional role of ADH1B in promoting ovarian cancer cell invasiveness and contributing to residual disease. We discovered that ADH1B overexpression leads to a more infiltrative cancer cell phenotype, promotes metastasis, increases the adhesion of cancer cells to mesothelial cells, and increases extracellular matrix degradation. Live cell imaging revealed that ADH1B-overexpressing cancer cells efficiently cleared the mesothelial cell layer compared to control cells. Moreover, gene array analysis revealed that ADH1B affects several pathways related to the migration and invasion of cancer cells. We also discovered that hypoxia increases ADH1B expression in ovarian cancer cells. Collectively, these findings indicate that ADH1B plays an important role in the pathways that promote ovarian cancer cell infiltration and may increase the likelihood of residual disease following surgery.

Abstract
CD47 is an important 'marker of self' protein with multiple isoforms produced though alternative splicing that exhibit tissue-specific expression. Mature erythrocytes express CD47 isoform 2 only, with membrane stability of this version dependent on inclusion within the band 3 macrocomplex, via protein 4.2. At present a paucity of information exists regarding the associations and trafficking of the CD47 isoforms during erythropoiesis. We show that CD47 isoform 2 is the predominant version maintained at the surface of expanding and terminally differentiating erythroblasts. CD47 isoforms 3 and 4 are expressed in all cell types tested except mature erythrocytes, but do not reach the plasma membrane in erythroblasts and are degraded by the orthochromatic stage of differentiation. To identify putative CD47 interactants, immunoprecipitation combined with Nano LC-MS/MS mass spectrometry was conducted on the erythroleukaemic K562 cell line, expanding and terminally differentiating primary erythroblasts and mature erythrocytes. Results indicate that prior to incorporation into the band 3 macrocomplex, CD47 associates with actin-binding proteins and we confirm that CD47 membrane stability is sensitive to actin disrupting drugs. Maintenance of CD47 at the cell surface was also influenced by dynamin, with sensitivity to dynamin disruption prolonged relative to that of actin during erythropoiesis.

Abstract
Addressing the aberrant interactions between immune cells and biomaterials represents an unmet need in biomaterial research. Although progress has been made in the development of bioinert coatings, identifying and targeting relevant cellular and molecular pathways can provide additional therapeutic strategies to address this major healthcare concern. To that end, we describe the immune inhibitory motif, receptor-ligand pairing of signal regulatory protein alpha and its cognate ligand CD47 as a potential signaling pathway to enhance biocompatibility. The goals of this article are to detail the known roles of CD47-signal regulatory protein alpha signal transduction pathway and to describe how immobilized CD47 can be used to mitigate the immune response to biomaterials. Current applications of CD47-modified biomaterials will also be discussed herein.

Abstract
CD47 is a widely expressed integral membrane protein that serves as the counter-receptor for the inhibitory phagocyte receptor signal-regulatory protein-α (SIRPα) and as a signaling receptor for the secreted matricellular protein thrombospondin-1. Recent studies employing mice and somatic cells lacking CD47 have revealed important pathophysiological functions of CD47 in cardiovascular homeostasis, immune regulation, resistance of cells and tissues to stress and chronic diseases of aging including cancer. With the emergence of experimental therapeutics targeting CD47, a more thorough understanding of CD47 signal transduction is essential. CD47 lacks a substantial cytoplasmic signaling domain, but several cytoplasmic binding partners have been identified, and lateral interactions of CD47 with other membrane receptors play important roles in mediating signaling resulting from the binding of thrombospondin-1. This review addresses recent advances in identifying the lateral binding partners, signal transduction pathways and downstream transcription networks regulated through CD47 in specific cell lineages. Major pathways regulated by CD47 signaling include calcium homeostasis, cyclic nucleotide signaling, nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide biosynthesis and signaling and stem cell transcription factors. These pathways and other undefined proximal mediators of CD47 signaling regulate cell death and protective autophagy responses, mitochondrial biogenesis, cell adhesion and motility and stem cell self-renewal. Although thrombospondin-1 is the best characterized agonist of CD47, the potential roles of other members of the thrombospondin family, SIRPα and SIRPγ binding and homotypic CD47 interactions as agonists or antagonists of signaling through CD47 should also be considered.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of the present study is to investigate the differential expression of CD44, CD47 and c-met in ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC), the correlation in their expression and their relationship with the biological behavior of OCCC. METHODS We used immunohistochemistry to examine the expression of CD44, CD47 and c-met in OCCC (86 cases) and investigated the effects of the expression and interaction of these molecules on the development of OCCC. RESULTS CD44, CD47 and c-met expression was significantly high in OCCC. Expression of CD44 and CD47 correlated with patient surgical stage, chemotherapy resistance and prognosis (all p<0.05), and expression of c-met correlated with chemotherapy resistance and prognosis (all p<0.05), but did not correlate with lymph node metastasis (all p>0.05). The surgical stage, CD44, CD47 and c-met expression were independent risk factors for OCCC prognosis (all p<0.05). Patients with low levels of CD44, CD47 and c-met showed better survival than those with high levels (all p<0.05). There was a positive correlation between CD44 (or CD47) and c-met, as well as between CD44 and CD47 (the Spearman correlation coefficient rs was 0.783, 0.776 and 0.835, respectively, all p<0.01). Additionally, pairwise correlation analysis of these three markers shows that the high expression of CD44/CD47, CD44/c-met and CD47/c-met were correlated with patient surgical stage, chemotherapy resistance and prognosis (all p<0.05), but did not correlate with lymph node metastasis (all p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Expression of CD44, CD47 and c-met was upregulated in OCCC and pairwise correlation. CD44, CD47 and c-met may have synergistic effects on the development of OCCC and are prognostic factors for ovarian cancer.

BNIP3 supports melanoma cell migration and vasculogenic mimicry by orchestrating the actin cytoskeleton. Cell Death Dis 2014; 5:e1127. [PMID: 24625986 PMCID: PMC3973222 DOI: 10.1038/cddis.2014.94] [Citation(s) in RCA: 95] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2013] [Revised: 02/10/2014] [Accepted: 02/11/2014] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
BNIP3 is an atypical BH3-only member of the BCL-2 family of proteins with reported pro-death as well as pro-autophagic and cytoprotective functions, depending on the type of stress and cellular context. In line with this, the role of BNIP3 in cancer is highly controversial and increased BNIP3 levels in cancer patients have been linked with both good as well as poor prognosis. In this study, using small hairpin RNA (shRNA) lentiviral transduction to stably knockdown BNIP3 (BNIP3-shRNA) expression levels in melanoma cells, we show that BNIP3 supports cancer cell survival and long-term clonogenic growth. Although BNIP3-shRNA increased mitochondrial mass and baseline levels of reactive oxygen species production, which are features associated with aggressive cancer cell behavior, it also prevented cell migration and completely abolished the ability to form a tubular-like network on matrigel, a hallmark of vasculogenic mimicry (VM). We found that this attenuated aggressive behavior of these melanoma cells was underscored by severe changes in cell morphology and remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton associated with loss of BNIP3. Indeed, BNIP3-silenced melanoma cells displayed enhanced formation of actin stress fibers and membrane ruffles, while lamellopodial protrusions and filopodia, tight junctions and adherens junctions were reduced. Moreover, loss of BNIP3 resulted in re-organization of focal adhesion sites associated with increased levels of phosphorylated focal adhesion kinase. Remarkably, BNIP3 silencing led to a drop of the protein levels of the integrin-associated protein CD47 and its downstream signaling effectors Rac1 and Cdc42. These observations underscore that BNIP3 is required to maintain steady-state levels of intracellular complexes orchestrating the plasticity of the actin cytoskeleton, which is integral to cell migration and other vital processes stimulating cancer progression. All together these results unveil an unprecedented pro-tumorigenic role of BNIP3 driving melanoma cell's aggressive features, like migration and VM.

Crosstalk between colon cancer cells and macrophages via inflammatory mediators and CD47 promotes tumour cell migration. Eur J Cancer 2013; 49:3320-34.

Abstract
Tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) of the M2 phenotype are present in the stroma of many tumours and are frequently associated with the progression of several types of cancer. We investigated the role of M2 macrophages in colon cancer progression and found that human colon cancer tissue had elevated numbers of CD68(+) (macrophage marker) cells and CD206(+) (M2 macrophage marker) cells and increased CD47 expression. To explore potential interplay between colon cancer cells and M2 macrophages, we differentiated the monocyte cell line THP-1 into M1 and M2 macrophages (CD206(high) and Th2 cytokine-secreting cells), respectively. M2 macrophages migrated faster than M1 macrophages towards SW480-conditioned medium. Similarly, M2 macrophage-conditioned medium induced SW480 cell migration and CD47 expression. Factors released by macrophages were involved in this induction. In addition, SW480 cells migrated faster when co-cultured with M2 macrophages. Inhibition of CD47 with blocking antibodies or siRNA significantly reduced the migration of SW480 cells in the presence of M2 macrophages. This effect was further decreased via blocking antibodies against the CD47 ligand signal-regulatory protein α (SIRPα). Additionally, cancer cells also secreted significant levels of IL-10, thereby promoting M2 macrophage differentiation. These findings indicate that a TAM-enriched tumour microenvironment promotes colon cancer cell migration and metastasis.

Abstract
At sites of inflammation, endothelial adhesion molecules bind leukocytes and transmit signals required for transendothelial migration (TEM). We previously reported that adhesive interactions between endothelial cell CD47 and leukocyte signal regulatory protein γ (SIRPγ) regulate human T cell TEM. The role of endothelial CD47 in T cell TEM in vivo, however, has not been explored. In this study, CD47⁻/⁻ mice showed reduced recruitment of blood T cells as well as neutrophils and monocytes in a dermal air pouch model of TNF-α-induced inflammation. Reconstitution of CD47⁻/⁻ mice with wild-type bone marrow cells did not restore leukocyte recruitment to the air pouch, indicating a role for endothelial CD47. The defect in leukocyte TEM in the CD47⁻/⁻ endothelium was corroborated by intravital microscopy of inflamed cremaster muscle microcirculation in bone marrow chimera mice. In an in vitro human system, CD47 on both HUVEC and T cells was required for TEM. Although previous studies showed CD47-dependent signaling required G(αi)-coupled pathways, this was not the case for endothelial CD47 because pertussis toxin, which inactivates G(αi), had no inhibitory effect, whereas G(αi) was required by the T cell for TEM. We next investigated the endothelial CD47-dependent signaling events that accompany leukocyte TEM. Ab-induced cross-linking of CD47 revealed robust actin cytoskeleton reorganization and Src- and Pyk-2-kinase dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the vascular endothelial-cadherin cytoplasmic tail. This signaling was pertussis toxin insensitive, suggesting that endothelial CD47 signaling is independent of G(αi). These findings suggest that engagement of endothelial CD47 by its ligands triggers outside-in signals in endothelium that facilitate leukocyte TEM.

CD47 expression regulated by the miR-133a tumor suppressor is a novel prognostic marker in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Oncol Rep 2012; 28:465-72.

Abstract
CD47 inhibits phagocytosis and its overexpression is correlated with poor prognosis in patients with several types of cancer. It has also been reported that CD47 expression in multiple sclerosis is regulated by microRNAs. However, the regulatory mechanism of CD47 in cancer tissues has not been yet clarified. Re-analysis of a public microarray database revealed that miR-133a is downregulated in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Moreover, in silico algorithms predicted that miR-133a is a regulator of CD47. The purpose of this study was to clarify the clinical significance of CD47 and its regulatory mechanism by miR-133a in ESCC. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR was used to evaluate CD47 and miR-133a expression in 102 cases of curative resected ESCC and adjacent non-cancerous tissue. The regulation of CD47 by miR-133a was examined with precursor miR-133a-transfected cells. A mouse xenograft model was used to investigate the ability of miR-133a to suppress tumor progression. High expression levels of CD47 were associated with lymph node metastasis (P=0.049). Multivariate analysis showed that CD47 expression was an independent prognostic factor (P=0.045). miR-133a expression was significantly lower in cancer tissues compared to adjacent non-cancerous tissues (P<0.001). In vitro assays showed that miR-133a is a direct regulator of CD47. miR‑133a significantly inhibited tumorigenesis and growth in vivo. CD47 expression is a novel prognostic marker in ESCC that is directly inhibited by the miR-133a tumor suppressor. This correlation could provide new insight into the mechanism of cancer progression and a promising candidate for target therapy in ESCC.

Abstract
Increased epithelial cell expression of the cyclooxgenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme is a characteristic event of both inflammatory bowel disease and colon cancer. We here report the novel findings that collagen I-induced de novo synthesis of COX-2 in intestinal epithelial cells is inhibited by pertussis toxin (PTX) and by an inhibitory peptide selective for the heterotrimeric Gαi3-protein. These findings could be explained by a regulatory involvement of the G-protein-dependent integrin-associated protein CD47. In support of this notion, we observed a collagen I-induced association between CD47 and α2 integrins. This association was reduced by a blocking anti-CD47 antibody but not by PTX or a control anti-β2 antibody. Furthermore, a blocking antibody against CD47, dominant negative CD47 or specific siRNA knock down of CD47, significantly reduced collagen I-induced COX-2 expression. COX-2 has previously been shown to regulate intestinal epithelial cell adhesion and migration. Morphological analysis of intestinal cells adhering to collagen I revealed a co-localisation of CD47 and α2 integrins to non-apoptotic membrane blebs enriched in Rho A and F-actin. The blocking CD47 antibody, PTX and a selective COX-2 inhibitor, dramatically inhibited the formation of these blebs. In accordance, migration of these cells on a collagen I-coated surface or through a collagen I gel were significantly reduced by the CD47 blocking antibody, siRNA knock down of CD47 and the COX-2 inhibitor NS-398. In conclusion, we present novel data that identifies the G-protein-dependent CD47 protein as a key regulator of collagen I-induced COX-2 expression and a promoter of intestinal epithelial cell migration.

Abstract
Among proteases, metalloproteases are implicated in tissue remodeling, as shown in numerous diseases including allergy. ADAMs (A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease) metalloproteases are implicated in physiologic processes such as cytokine and growth factor shedding, cell migration, adhesion, or repulsion. Our aim was to measure ADAM-12 expression in airway epithelium and to define its role during the allergic response. To raise this question, we analyzed the ADAM-12 expression ex vivo after allergen exposure in patients with allergic rhinitis and in vitro in cultured primary human airway epithelial cells (AEC). Clones of BEAS-2B cells transfected with the full-length form of ADAM-12 were generated to study the consequences of ADAM-12 up-regulation on AEC function. After allergen challenge, a strong increase of ADAM-12 expression was observed in airway epithelium from patients with allergic rhinitis but not from control subjects. In contrast with the other HB-epidermal growth factor sheddases, ADAM-10 and -17, TNF-alpha in vitro increased the expression of ADAM-12 by AEC, an effect amplified by IL-4 and IL-13. Up-regulation of ADAM-12 in AEC increased the expression of alpha3 and alpha4 integrins and to the modulation of cell migration on fibronectin but not on collagen. Moreover, overexpression of ADAM-12 in BEAS-2B enhanced the secretion of CXCL1 and CXCL8 and their capacity to recruit neutrophils. CD47 was strongly decreased by ADAM-12 overexpression, a process associated with a reduced adhesion of neutrophils. These effects were mainly dependent on epidermal growth factor receptor activation. In summary, ADAM-12 is produced during allergic reaction by AEC and might increase neutrophil recruitment within airway mucosa.

Abstract
B lymphocytes require a source of T cell-like help to produce antibody to T cell-dependent antigens. T cell-derived lymphokines and C8-substituted guanine ribonucleosides (such as 8-mercaptoguanosine; 8MGuo) are effective sources of such T cell-like help. Addition of T cell-derived lymphokines to antigen-activated B cells together with 8MGuo results in synergistic B cell differentiation, amplifying the sum of the individual responses twofold to four-fold. Lymphokine activity is required at initiation of culture for optimal synergy with 8MGuo, whereas the nucleoside can be added up to 48 hr after the lymphokines with full synergy. 8MGuo provides a perceived T cell-like differentiation signal to B cells from immunodeficient xid mice, thereby distinguishing a subset of Lyb-5- nucleoside-responsive B cells from those activated by soluble anti-mu followed by B cell stimulatory factor-1, interleukin 1, and B cell differentiation factors, which are Lyb-5+. Moreover, at least a subset of the B cells recruited by the synergistic interaction of lymphokines and nucleoside is distinct from that responsive to 8MGuo + antigen, insofar as Sephadex G-10 nonadherent xid B cells fail to respond to either 8MGuo or lymphokines alone, but do respond to the combination. A distinct subpopulation can also be demonstrated among normal B cells by limiting dilution analysis in which the precursor frequency of antigen-reactive B cells in the presence of lymphokines or nucleoside alone increases substantially when both agents are present together. In concert with the kinetic data, these observations suggest that synergy derives at least in part from the ability of lymphokines to induce one or more elements the absence of which limits the capacity of a distinct B cell subpopulation to respond to 8MGuo.
