Sex- and species-specific contribution of CD99 to T cell costimulation during multiple sclerosis. Biol Sex Differ 2024; 15:41. [PMID: 38750588 PMCID: PMC11097467 DOI: 10.1186/s13293-024-00618-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Differences in immune responses between women and men are leading to a strong sex bias in the incidence of autoimmune diseases that predominantly affect women, such as multiple sclerosis (MS). MS manifests in more than twice as many women, making sex one of the most important risk factor. However, it is incompletely understood which genes contribute to sex differences in autoimmune incidence. To address that, we conducted a gene expression analysis in female and male human spleen and identified the transmembrane protein CD99 as one of the most significantly differentially expressed genes with marked increase in men. CD99 has been reported to participate in immune cell transmigration and T cell regulation, but sex-specific implications have not been comprehensively investigated. METHODS In this study, we conducted a gene expression analysis in female and male human spleen using the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project dataset to identify differentially expressed genes between women and men. After successful validation on protein level of human immune cell subsets, we assessed hormonal regulation of CD99 as well as its implication on T cell regulation in primary human T cells and Jurkat T cells. In addition, we performed in vivo assays in wildtype mice and in Cd99-deficient mice to further analyze functional consequences of differential CD99 expression. RESULTS Here, we found higher CD99 gene expression in male human spleens compared to females and confirmed this expression difference on protein level on the surface of T cells and pDCs. Androgens are likely dispensable as the cause shown by in vitro assays and ex vivo analysis of trans men samples. In cerebrospinal fluid, CD99 was higher on T cells compared to blood. Of note, male MS patients had lower CD99 levels on CD4+ T cells in the CSF, unlike controls. By contrast, both sexes had similar CD99 expression in mice and Cd99-deficient mice showed equal susceptibility to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis compared to wildtypes. Functionally, CD99 increased upon human T cell activation and inhibited T cell proliferation after blockade. Accordingly, CD99-deficient Jurkat T cells showed decreased cell proliferation and cluster formation, rescued by CD99 reintroduction. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that CD99 is sex-specifically regulated in healthy individuals and MS patients and that it is involved in T cell costimulation in humans but not in mice. CD99 could potentially contribute to MS incidence and susceptibility in a sex-specific manner.

Abstract
KEY POINTS While dopamine neuronal activity changes with motivational state, it is unknown if fasting influences tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons, a major inhibitory input to VTA dopamine neurons. In unfasted mice, there were sex differences in inhibitory synaptic transmission onto tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons. Activation of LH GABAergic neurons decreases firing of tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons through a monosynaptic input. An acute fast decreased the excitability of tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons. An acute fast decreases inhibitory synaptic transmission of the LH GABA input to tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons in both male and female mice. ABSTRACT Dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) are strongly innervated by GABAergic neurons in the 'tail of the VTA' (tVTA), also known as the rostralmedial tegmental nucleus (RMTg). Disinhibition of dopamine neurons through firing of the GABAergic neurons projecting from the lateral hypothalamus (LH) leads to reward seeking and consumption through dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens. VTA dopamine neurons respond to changes in motivational state, yet less is known of whether tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons or the LH GABAergic neurons that project to them are also affected by changes in motivational state, such as fasting. An acute 16 h overnight fast decreased the excitability of tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons of male and female mice. In addition, fasting decreased synaptic strength at LH GABA to tVTA/RMTg GABAergic synapses, indicated by reduced amplitude of optically evoked currents, decreased readily releasable pool (RRP) size and replenishment. Optical stimulation of LH GABA terminals suppressed evoked action potentials of tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons in unfasted mice, but this effect decreased following fasting. Furthermore, during fasting, LH GABA inputs to tVTA/RMTg neurons maintained functional connectivity during depolarization, as depolarization block was reduced following fasting. Taken together, inhibitory synaptic transmission from LH GABA inputs onto tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons decreases following fasting, however ability to functionally inhibit tVTA/RMTg GABAergic neurons is preserved, allowing for possible disinhibition of dopamine neurons and subsequent foraging. Abstract figure legend The inhibitory synaptic input is represented by the downward arrows. Following fasting, there was a decrease in inhibitory synaptic strength in both males and females. The action potentials represent the excitability, which also decreases in both males and females following fasting. Because both the LH GABA input and excitability of tVTA/RMTg GABA neurons have reduced activity following fasting, we predict that disinhibition of dopamine neurons with stimulation of LH inputs is preserved.

Abstract
Multiple embryonic precursors give rise to leukocytes in adults while the lineage‐based functional impacts are underappreciated. Mesodermal precursors expressing PDGFRα appear transiently during E7.5‐8.5 descend to a subset of Lin–Sca1+Kit+ hematopoietic progenitors found in adult BM. By analyzing a PDGFRα‐lineage tracing mouse line, we here report that PDGFRα‐lineage BM F4/80+SSClo monocytes/macrophages are solely Ly6C+LFA‐1hiMac‐1hi monocytes enriched on the abluminal sinusoidal endothelium while Ly6C–LFA‐1loMac‐1lo macrophages are mostly from non‐PDGFRα‐lineage in vivo. Monocytes with stronger integrin profiles outcompete macrophages for adhesion on an endothelial monolayer or surfaces coated with ICAM‐1‐Fc or VCAM‐1‐Fc. Egress of PDGFRα‐lineage‐rich monocytes and subsequent differentiation to peripheral macrophages spatially segregates them from non‐PDGFRα‐lineage BM‐resident macrophages and allows functional specialization since macrophages derived from these egressing monocytes differ in morphology, phenotype, and functionality from BM‐resident macrophages in culture. Extravasation preference for blood PDGFRα‐lineage monocytes varies by tissues and governs the local lineage composition of macrophages. More PDGFRα‐lineage classical monocytes infiltrated into skin and colon but not into peritoneum. Accordingly, transcriptomic analytics indicated augmented inflammatory cascades in dermatitis skin of BM‐chimeric mice harbouring only PDGFRα‐lineage leukocytes. Thus, the PDGFRα‐lineage origin biasedly generates monocytes predestined for BM exit to support peripheral immunity following extravasation and macrophage differentiation.

Abstract
Thanks to the modification of the force spectroscopy method, when a neutrophil is fixed on the tip, and an endotheliocyte culture is grown on the substrate, the exact indicators of the adhesion force and adhesion work between cells have been investigated. The high variability of adhesion contacts in different donors associated with different expression profiles of neutrophils. It was found by flow cytometry that the EA.hy926 cell line actively expresses VCAM-1, as well as P- and E-selectin under the Staphylococcus aureus influence after 60 min of co-incubation. At the same time, the integral indicators of the adhesion force and adhesion work in the "neutrophil - endothelial cell" interaction were significantly inhibited by S. aureus in all studied donors. Since the VCAM-1 receptor is not involved in the adhesion bonds between neutrophils and endothelial cells, the suppression of the interaction is associated with the inhibition of P- and E-selectins, but direct receptors removal from the endothelial cells surface of the EA.hy926 cell line does not occur. Escherichia coli causes multidirectional effects in the system of interaction "neutrophil - endothelial cell", depending on the expression profile of the donor's neutrophils. However, the cumulative effect of interaction from all donors shows that in general, under the influence of E. coli, there is an increase in adhesion force and a suppression of adhesion work.

Abstract
Hair follicles cyclically regenerate throughout adult mammalian life, owing to a resident population of epithelial hair follicle stem cells. Stem cell (SC) activity drives bouts of follicle growth, which are periodically interrupted by follicle regression and rest. These phases and the transitions between them are tightly spatiotemporally coordinated by signalling crosstalk between stem/progenitor cells and the various cell types of the microenvironment, or niche. The dermal papilla (DP) is a cluster of specialized mesenchymal cells that have long been recognized for important niche roles in regulating hair follicle SC activation, as well as progenitor proliferation and differentiation during follicle growth. In addition to the DP, the mesenchyme of the murine pelage follicle is also comprised of a follicle-lining smooth muscle known as the dermal sheath (DS), which has been far less studied than the DP yet may be equally specialized and important for hair cycling. In this review, we define the murine pelage DS in comparison with human DS and discuss recent work that highlights the emergent importance of the DS in the hair follicle SC niche. Last, we examine potential therapeutic applications for the DS in hair regeneration and wound healing.

Abstract
Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved barrels of microtubule triplets that form the core of the centrosome and the base of the cilium. While the crucial role of the proximal region in centriole biogenesis has been well documented, its native architecture and evolutionary conservation remain relatively unexplored. Here, using cryo-electron tomography of centrioles from four evolutionarily distant species, we report on the architectural diversity of the centriole's proximal cartwheel-bearing region. Our work reveals that the cartwheel central hub is constructed from a stack of paired rings with cartwheel inner densities inside. In both Paramecium and Chlamydomonas, the repeating structural unit of the cartwheel has a periodicity of 25 nm and consists of three ring pairs, with 6 radial spokes emanating and merging into a single bundle that connects to the microtubule triplet via the D2-rod and the pinhead. Finally, we identified that the cartwheel is indirectly connected to the A-C linker through the triplet base structure extending from the pinhead. Together, our work provides unprecedented evolutionary insights into the architecture of the centriole proximal region, which underlies centriole biogenesis.

Abstract
Endothelial junctions provide blood and lymph vessel integrity and are essential for the formation of a vascular system. They control the extravasation of solutes, leukocytes and metastatic cells from blood vessels and the uptake of fluid and leukocytes into the lymphatic vascular system. A multitude of adhesion molecules mediate and control the integrity and permeability of endothelial junctions. VE-cadherin is arguably the most important adhesion molecule for the formation of vascular structures, and the stability of their junctions. Interestingly, despite this prominence, its elimination from junctions in the adult organism has different consequences in the vasculature of different organs, both for blood and lymph vessels. In addition, even in tissues where the lack of VE-cadherin leads to strong plasma leaks from venules, the physical integrity of endothelial junctions is preserved. Obviously, other adhesion molecules can compensate for a loss of VE-cadherin and this review will discuss which other adhesive mechanisms contribute to the stability and regulation of endothelial junctions and cooperate with VE-cadherin in intact vessels. In addition to adhesion molecules, endothelial receptors will be discussed, which stimulate signaling processes that provide junction stability by modulating the actomyosin system, which reinforces tension of circumferential actin and dampens pulling forces of radial stress fibers. Finally, we will highlight most recent reports about the formation and control of the specialized button-like junctions of initial lymphatics, which represent the entry sites for fluid and cells into the lymphatic vascular system.

Abstract
We have developed a model for evaluating the integral intercellular interactions in the "endotheliocyte-neutrophil" system and have shown the high variability of adhesion contacts in different donors associated with different expression profiles of neutrophils. Two methods (forсe spectroscopy-spectroscopy and scanning ion-conductance microscopy) showed a decrease in the rigidity of the membrane-cytoskeletal complex of neutrophils under the influence of Staphylococcus aureus 2879 M. Adding this strain to the "endotheliocyte-neutrophil" system caused a statistically significant decrease in the adhesion force and adhesion work, which indicates a change in the expression profile and physicochemical properties of membranes of both types of interacting cells (neutrophils and endotheliocytes).

Abstract
Cancer metastasis and secondary tumor initiation largely depend on circulating tumor cell (CTC) and vascular endothelial cell (EC) interactions by incompletely understood mechanisms. Endothelial glycocalyx (GCX) dysfunction may play a significant role in this process. GCX structure depends on vascular flow patterns, which are irregular in tumor environments. This work presents evidence that disturbed flow (DF) induces GCX degradation, leading to CTC homing to the endothelium, a first step in secondary tumor formation. A 2-fold greater attachment of CTCs to human ECs was found to occur under DF conditions, compared to uniform flow (UF) conditions. These results corresponded to an approximately 50% decrease in wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)-labeled components of the GCX under DF conditions, vs UF conditions, with undifferentiated levels of CTC-recruiting E-selectin under DF vs UF conditions. Confirming the role of the GCX, neuraminidase induced the degradation of WGA-labeled GCX under UF cell culture conditions or in Balb/C mice and led to an over 2-fold increase in CTC attachment to ECs or Balb/C mouse lungs, respectively, compared to untreated conditions. These experiments confirm that flow-induced GCX degradation can enable metastatic CTC arrest. This work, therefore, provides new insight into pathways of secondary tumor formation.
