Abstract
Conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) include functionally and phenotypically diverse populations, such as cDC1s and cDC2s. The latter population has been variously subdivided into Notch-dependent cDC2s, KLF4-dependent cDC2s, T-bet+ cDC2As and T-bet- cDC2Bs, but it is unclear how all these subtypes are interrelated and to what degree they represent cell states or cell subsets. All cDCs are derived from bone marrow progenitors called pre-cDCs, which circulate through the blood to colonize peripheral tissues. Here, we identified distinct mouse pre-cDC2 subsets biased to give rise to cDC2As or cDC2Bs. We showed that a Siglec-H+ pre-cDC2A population in the bone marrow preferentially gave rise to Siglec-H- CD8α+ pre-cDC2As in tissues, which differentiated into T-bet+ cDC2As. In contrast, a Siglec-H- fraction of pre-cDCs in the bone marrow and periphery mostly generated T-bet- cDC2Bs, a lineage marked by the expression of LysM. Our results showed that cDC2A versus cDC2B fate specification starts in the bone marrow and suggest that cDC2 subsets are ontogenetically determined lineages, rather than cell states imposed by the peripheral tissue environment.

Abstract
Therapies reconstituting autologous antiviral immunocompetence may represent an important prophylaxis and treatment for immunosuppressed individuals. Following hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), patients are susceptible to Herpesviridae including cytomegalovirus (CMV). We show in a murine model of HCT that macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) promoted rapid antiviral activity and protection from viremia caused by murine CMV. M-CSF given at transplantation stimulated sequential myeloid and natural killer (NK) cell differentiation culminating in increased NK cell numbers, production of granzyme B and interferon-γ. This depended upon M-CSF-induced myelopoiesis leading to IL15Rα-mediated presentation of IL-15 on monocytes, augmented by type I interferons from plasmacytoid dendritic cells. Demonstrating relevance to human HCT, M-CSF induced myelomonocytic IL15Rα expression and numbers of functional NK cells in G-CSF-mobilized hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Together, M-CSF-induced myelopoiesis triggered an integrated differentiation of myeloid and NK cells to protect HCT recipients from CMV. Thus, our results identify a rationale for the therapeutic use of M-CSF to rapidly reconstitute antiviral activity in immunocompromised individuals, which may provide a general paradigm to boost innate antiviral immunocompetence using host-directed therapies.

Abstract
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are the main source of type I interferon (IFN-I) during viral infections. Their other functions are debated, due to a lack of tools to identify and target them in vivo without affecting pDC-like cells and transitional DCs (tDCs), which harbor overlapping phenotypes and transcriptomes but a higher efficacy for T cell activation. In the present report, we present a reporter mouse, pDC-Tom, designed through intersectional genetics based on unique Siglech and Pacsin1 coexpression in pDCs. The pDC-Tom mice specifically tagged pDCs and, on breeding with Zbtb46GFP mice, enabled transcriptomic profiling of all splenic DC types, unraveling diverging activation of pDC-like cells versus tDCs during a viral infection. The pDC-Tom mice also revealed initially similar but later divergent microanatomical relocation of splenic IFN+ versus IFN- pDCs during infection. The mouse models and specific gene modules we report here will be useful to delineate the physiological functions of pDCs versus other DC types.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To better understand how immune responses may be harnessed against breast cancer, we investigated which immune cell types and signalling pathways are required for spontaneous control of a mouse model of mammary adenocarcinoma. METHODS The NOP23 mammary adenocarcinoma cell line expressing epitopes derived from the ovalbumin model antigen is spontaneously controlled when orthotopically engrafted in syngeneic C57BL/6 mice. We combined this breast cancer model with antibody-mediated depletion of lymphocytes and with mutant mice affected in interferon (IFN) or type 1 conventional dendritic cell (cDC1) responses. We monitored tumor growth and immune infiltration including the activation of cognate ovalbumin-specific T cells. RESULTS Breast cancer immunosurveillance required cDC1, NK/NK T cells, conventional CD4+ T cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). cDC1 were required constitutively, but especially during T-cell priming. In tumors, cDC1 were interacting simultaneously with CD4+ T cells and tumor-specific CTLs. cDC1 expression of the XCR1 chemokine receptor and of the T-cell-attracting or T-cell-activating cytokines CXCL9, IL-12 and IL-15 was dispensable for tumor rejection, whereas IFN responses were necessary, including cDC1-intrinsic signalling by STAT1 and IFN-γ but not type I IFN (IFN-I). cDC1 and IFNs promoted CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell infiltration, terminal differentiation and effector functions. In breast cancer patients, high intratumor expression of genes specific to cDC1, CTLs, CD4+ T cells or IFN responses is associated with a better prognosis. CONCLUSION Interferons and cDC1 are critical for breast cancer immunosurveillance. IFN-γ plays a prominent role over IFN-I in licensing cDC1 for efficient T-cell activation.

Abstract
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are a major source of type I interferon (IFN-I). What other functions pDCs exert in vivo during viral infections is controversial, and more studies are needed to understand their orchestration. In the present study, we characterize in depth and link pDC activation states in animals infected by mouse cytomegalovirus by combining Ifnb1 reporter mice with flow cytometry, single-cell RNA sequencing, confocal microscopy and a cognate CD4 T cell activation assay. We show that IFN-I production and T cell activation were performed by the same pDC, but these occurred sequentially in time and in different micro-anatomical locations. In addition, we show that pDC commitment to IFN-I production was marked early on by their downregulation of leukemia inhibitory factor receptor and was promoted by cell-intrinsic tumor necrosis factor signaling. We propose a new model for how individual pDCs are endowed to exert different functions in vivo during a viral infection, in a manner tightly orchestrated in time and space.

Abstract
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) are the major source of type I interferons (IFN-I) during viral infections, in response to triggering of endosomal Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 7 or 9 by viral single-stranded RNA or unmethylated CpG DNA, respectively. Synthetic ligands have been used to disentangle the underlying signaling pathways. The adaptor protein AP3 is necessary to transport molecular complexes of TLRs, synthetic CpG DNA, and MyD88 into endosomal compartments allowing interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) recruitment whose phosphorylation then initiates IFN-I production. High basal expression of IRF7 by pDC and its further enhancement by positive IFN-I feedback signaling appear to be necessary for robust cytokine production. In contrast, we show here that in vivo during mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection pDC produce high amounts of IFN-I downstream of the TLR9-to-MyD88-to-IRF7 signaling pathway without requiring IFN-I positive feedback, high IRF7 expression, or AP3-driven endosomal routing of TLRs. Hence, the current model of the molecular requirements for professional IFN-I production by pDC, established by using synthetic TLR ligands, does not strictly apply to a physiological viral infection.

Abstract
In mice, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC) and natural killer (NK) cells both contribute to resistance to systemic infections with herpes viruses including mouse Cytomegalovirus (MCMV). pDCs are the major source of type I IFN (IFN-I) during MCMV infection. This response requires pDC-intrinsic MyD88-dependent signaling by Toll-Like Receptors 7 and 9. Provided that they express appropriate recognition receptors such as Ly49H, NK cells can directly sense and kill MCMV-infected cells. The loss of any one of these responses increases susceptibility to infection. However, the relative importance of these antiviral immune responses and how they are related remain unclear. In humans, while IFN-I responses are essential, MyD88 is dispensable for antiviral immunity. Hence, a higher redundancy has been proposed in the mechanisms promoting protective immune responses against systemic infections by herpes viruses during natural infections in humans. It has been assumed, but not proven, that mice fail to mount protective MyD88-independent IFN-I responses. In humans, the mechanism that compensates MyD88 deficiency has not been elucidated. To address these issues, we compared resistance to MCMV infection and immune responses between mouse strains deficient for MyD88, the IFN-I receptor and/or Ly49H. We show that selective depletion of pDC or genetic deficiencies for MyD88 or TLR9 drastically decreased production of IFN-I, but not the protective antiviral responses. Moreover, MyD88, but not IFN-I receptor, deficiency could largely be compensated by Ly49H-mediated antiviral NK cell responses. Thus, contrary to the current dogma but consistent with the situation in humans, we conclude that, in mice, in our experimental settings, MyD88 is redundant for IFN-I responses and overall defense against a systemic herpes virus infection. Moreover, we identified direct NK cell sensing of infected cells as one mechanism able to compensate for MyD88 deficiency in mice. Similar mechanisms likely contribute to protect MyD88- or IRAK4-deficient patients from viral infections. Type I interferons (IFN-I) are innate cytokines crucial for vertebrate antiviral defenses. IFN-I exert antiviral effector functions and orchestrate antiviral immunity. IFN-I are induced early after infection, upon sensing of viral particles or infected cells by immune receptors. Intracellular Toll-like receptors (TLR) are selectively expressed in specialized immune cell types such as plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC), enabling them to copiously produce IFN-I upon detection of engulfed viral nucleic acids. pDC or intracellular TLR have been reported to be crucial for resistance to experimental infections with many viruses in mice but dispensable for resistance to natural infections in humans. Our aim was to investigate this puzzling difference. Mice deficient for TLR activity mounted strong IFN-I responses despite producing very low IFN-I levels and controlled the infection by a moderate dose of murine cytomegalovirus much better than mice deficient for IFN-I responses. Deficient TLR responses could be compensated by direct recognition of infected cells by natural killer cells. Hence, we identified experimental conditions in mice mimicking the lack of requirement of TLR functions for antiviral defense observed in humans. We used these experimental models to advance our basic understanding of antiviral immunity in a way that might help improve treatments for patients.

Abstract
Genome-wide expression profiling of mouse and human leukocytes reveal conserved transcriptional programs of plasmacytoid or conventional dendritic cell subsets. Background Dendritic cells (DCs) are a complex group of cells that play a critical role in vertebrate immunity. Lymph-node resident DCs (LN-DCs) are subdivided into conventional DC (cDC) subsets (CD11b and CD8α in mouse; BDCA1 and BDCA3 in human) and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs). It is currently unclear if these various DC populations belong to a unique hematopoietic lineage and if the subsets identified in the mouse and human systems are evolutionary homologs. To gain novel insights into these questions, we sought conserved genetic signatures for LN-DCs and in vitro derived granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) DCs through the analysis of a compendium of genome-wide expression profiles of mouse or human leukocytes. Results We show through clustering analysis that all LN-DC subsets form a distinct branch within the leukocyte family tree, and reveal a transcriptomal signature evolutionarily conserved in all LN-DC subsets. Moreover, we identify a large gene expression program shared between mouse and human pDCs, and smaller conserved profiles shared between mouse and human LN-cDC subsets. Importantly, most of these genes have not been previously associated with DC function and many have unknown functions. Finally, we use compendium analysis to re-evaluate the classification of interferon-producing killer DCs, lin-CD16+HLA-DR+ cells and in vitro derived GM-CSF DCs, and show that these cells are more closely linked to natural killer and myeloid cells, respectively. Conclusion Our study provides a unique database resource for future investigation of the evolutionarily conserved molecular pathways governing the ontogeny and functions of leukocyte subsets, especially DCs.

Abstract
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are an important source of IFN-α/β in response to a variety of viruses in vivo, including murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV). However, the respective contributions of various infected organs, and within these of pDCs, conventional dendritic cells and other cells, to the systemic production of IFN-α/β or other innate cytokines during viral infections in vivo is largely unknown. Whether a specialization of pDC subsets in the production of different patterns of innate cytokines exists in vivo in response to a viral infection has not been investigated. Here, by analyzing for the first time directly ex vivo, at the single-cell level, the simultaneous production of up to three cytokines in pDCs isolated from MCMV-infected mice, we show that (i) pDCs are the quasi-exclusive source of IFN-α/β, IL-12 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, early during MCMV infection, in two immunocompetent mouse lines and with two viral strains, (ii) pDC activation for IFN-α/β production is organ specific and (iii) a significant proportion of pDCs simultaneously produce IFN-α/β, TNF-α and IL-12, although TNF-α and IFN-α/β appear more often co-expressed with one another than each of them with IL-12. Altogether, these results show a broad and non-redundant role of pDCs in early innate detection of, and defense against, viral infection. The data also show differences in the responsiveness of pDCs from different tissues and suggest distinct molecular requirements for pDC production of various cytokines. These observations must be taken into account when designing new antiviral vaccination strategies aimed at harnessing pDC responses.

Abstract
Understanding the mechanisms that help promote protective immune responses to pathogens is a major challenge in biomedical research and an important goal for the design of innovative therapeutic or vaccination strategies. While natural killer (NK) cells can directly contribute to the control of viral replication, whether, and how, they may help orchestrate global antiviral defense is largely unknown. To address this question, we took advantage of the well-defined molecular interactions involved in the recognition of mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) by NK cells. By using congenic or mutant mice and wild-type versus genetically engineered viruses, we examined the consequences on antiviral CD8 T cell responses of specific defects in the ability of the NK cells to control MCMV. This system allowed us to demonstrate, to our knowledge for the first time, that NK cells accelerate CD8 T cell responses against a viral infection in vivo. Moreover, we identify the underlying mechanism as the ability of NK cells to limit IFN-α/β production to levels not immunosuppressive to the host. This is achieved through the early control of cytomegalovirus, which dramatically reduces the activation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) for cytokine production, preserves the conventional dendritic cell (cDC) compartment, and accelerates antiviral CD8 T cell responses. Conversely, exogenous IFN-α administration in resistant animals ablates cDCs and delays CD8 T cell activation in the face of NK cell control of viral replication. Collectively, our data demonstrate that the ability of NK cells to respond very early to cytomegalovirus infection critically contributes to balance the intensity of other innate immune responses, which dampens early immunopathology and promotes optimal initiation of antiviral CD8 T cell responses. Thus, the extent to which NK cell responses benefit the host goes beyond their direct antiviral effects and extends to the prevention of innate cytokine shock and to the promotion of adaptive immunity. To fight viral infections, vertebrates have developed a battery of innate and adaptive immune responses aimed at inhibiting viral replication or at killing infected cells. These responses include the early production of innate antiviral cytokines, especially interferons α and β (IFN-α/β), and the activation of cytotoxic lymphocytes such as the innate natural killer (NK) cells and the adaptive CD8 T cells. While critical for antiviral defense, cytokine or CD8 T cell responses can be detrimental or even fatal to the host when deregulated. Therefore, we need to better understand how the different arms of antiviral immunity are regulated. In particular, NK cells are proposed to play a protective role in a variety of viral infection in humans, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, in a mouse model of cytomegalovirus infection, we demonstrate that NK cells prevent an excessive production of IFN-α/β and promote more efficient antiviral CD8 T cell responses. We thus show that NK cells can help promote health over disease during viral infections by regulating both innate and adaptive immune responses. It will be important to examine in humans whether NK cells control innate cytokine production to prevent immunopathology and to promote adaptive immunity against herpesviruses, HIV-1, influenza, or SARS.

Abstract
DAP12 is an ITAM-containing adaptor molecule conveying activating properties to surface receptors on many cell types. We show here that DAP12 paradoxically down-modulates plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) cytokine production in vivo during murine CMV (MCMV) infection. Higher levels of IFN-alphabeta and IL-12 were detected upon MCMV infection or CpG treatment in DAP12-deficient (DAP12(o)) mice as compared with wild-type (WT) mice. This resulted from altered homeostasis and enhanced responsiveness of pDCs in DAP12(o) animals. Increased numbers of pDCs were observed in the periphery of both naive and MCMV-infected DAP12(o) mice. A higher proportion of pDCs was activated in infected DAP12(o) mice, as demonstrated by intracellular staining using an optimized protocol for simultaneous detection of IFN-alpha and IFN-beta. The homeostasis of WT and DAP12(o) pDCs did not differ in mixed bone marrow chimeric mice. In addition, a similar efficiency of pDC differentiation was observed in vitro in Fms-like tyrosine kinase receptor 3 ligand cultures of WT and DAP12(o) bone marrow cells. This suggests that DAP12 signaling effects on pDC homeostasis are indirect. In contrast, in response to CpG, DAP12-mediated effects on both IL-12 and IFN-alphabeta production were intrinsic to the pDCs. However, in response to MCMV, only IL-12 but not IFN-alphabeta production was affected by pDC-intrinsic DAP12 signaling. Thus, DAP12 signaling in pDCs can mediate different regulatory effects on their functions, depending on the mechanisms of pDC activation. The potential implications of the regulation of pDC functions by DAP12 for promoting health over disease are discussed.

Abstract
The main function of Vif is to limit the antiviral activity of APOBEC3G by counteracting its packaging into HIV-1 virions. In this work, we examine the possible functional interactions between Vif, APOBEC3G, and two Src family tyrosine kinases, Fyn and Hck, present in T lymphocytes and in monocyte-macrophages, respectively. By GST pull-down, we show that the SH3 domains of Fyn and Hck, and the corresponding full-length proteins bind Vif of HIV-1. One consequence of this interaction is a reduction in their catalytic activity. Interestingly, we also observed that APOBEC3G can be phosphorylated on tyrosine in the presence of Fyn or Hck, suggesting that both kinases may regulate APOBEC3G function. Accordingly, we demonstrate that in the presence of Fyn or Hck and in the absence of Vif, the overall level of APOBEC3G incorporated into HIV-1 particles is decreased, whereas the level of encapsidation of its phosphorylated form is significantly enhanced.

Abstract
APOBEC3G is a cytidine deaminase that limits the replication of many retroviruses. This antiviral host factor is packaged into retrovirus particles, where it targets single-stranded DNA generated during reverse transcription and induces up to 2% of G-to-A mutations, which are lethal for the HIV-1 provirus. Vif protein counteracts this antiviral factor by decreasing its packaging into lentivirus particles. Here, we demonstrate that Nedd4-1, an HECT E3 ubiquitin ligase, interacts with APOBEC3G, through its WW2 and WW3 domains. As a result of this interaction, APOBEC3G undergoes post-translational modification by addition of ubiquitin moieties. Accordingly, we demonstrate that the dominant negative Nedd4-1 C/S form prevents APOBEC3G ubiquitination. Moreover, the packaging of APOBEC3G into Pr55 Gag virus-like particles and into HIV-1 virions is reduced when Nedd4-1 C/S is expressed. During HIV-1 viral production in the presence of APOBEC3G, Nedd4-1 C/S restores partially the infectivity of Deltavif HIV-1. We conclude that the ubiquitination of APOBEC3G by Nedd4-1 favors its targeting to the virus assembly site where APOBEC3G interacts with Gag and is packaged into HIV-1 particles in the absence of Vif.

Abstract
The cytidine deaminase hAPOBEC3G is an antiviral human factor that counteracts the replication of HIV-1 in absence of the Vif protein. hAPOBEC3G is packaged into virus particles and lethally hypermutates HIV-1. In this work, we examine the mechanisms governing hAPOBEC3G packaging. By GST pull-down and co-immunoprecipitation assays, we show that hAPOBEC3G binds to HIV-1 Pr55 Gag and its NC domain and to the RT and IN domains contained in Pr160 Gag-Pol. We demonstrate that the expression of HIV-1 Gag is sufficient to induce the packaging of hAPOBEC3G into Gag particles. Gag-Pol polypeptides containing RT and IN domains, as well as HIV-1 genomic RNA, seem not to be necessary for hAPOBEC3G packaging. Lastly, we show that hAPOBEC3G and its murine ortholog are packaged into HIV-1 and MLV Gag particles. We conclude that the Gag polypeptides from distant retroviruses have conserved domains allowing the packaging of the host antiviral factor APOBEC3G.

Abstract
The viral infectivity factor (Vif), one of the six HIV-1 auxiliary genes, is absolutely necessary for productive infection in primary CD4-positive T lymphocytes and macrophages. Vif overcomes the antiviral function of the host factor APOBEC3G. To better understand this mechanism, it is of interest to characterize cellular proteins that interact with Vif and may regulate its function. Here, we show that Vif binds to hNedd4 and AIP4, two HECT E3 ubiquitin ligases. WW domains present in those HECT enzymes contribute to the binding of Vif. Moreover, the region of Vif, which includes amino acids 20-128 and interacts with the hNedd4 WW domains, does not contain proline-rich stretches. Lastly, we show that Vif undergoes post-translational modifications by addition of ubiquitin both in cells overexpressing Vif and in cells expressing HIV-1 provirus. Vif is mainly mono-ubiquitinated, a modification known to address the Gag precursor to the virus budding site.

Abstract
The virus infectivity factor (Vif) protein facilitates the replication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in primary lymphocytes and macrophages. Its action is strongly dependent on the cellular environment, and it has been proposed that the Vif protein counteracts cellular activities that would otherwise limit HIV-1 replication. Using a glutathione S-transferase pull-down assay, we identified that Vif binds specifically to the Src homology 3 domain of Hck, a tyrosine kinase from the Src family. The interaction between Vif and the full-length Hck was further assessed by co-precipitation assays in vitro and in human cells. The Vif protein repressed the kinase activity of Hck and was not itself a substrate for Hck phosphorylation. Within one single replication cycle of HIV-1, Hck was able to inhibit the production and the infectivity of vif-deleted virus but not that of wild-type virus. Accordingly, HIV-1 vif- replication was delayed in Jurkat T cell clones stably expressing Hck. Our data demonstrate that Hck controls negatively HIV-1 replication and that this inhibition is suppressed by the expression of Vif. Hck, which is present in monocyte-macrophage cells, represents the first identified cellular inhibitor of HIV-1 replication overcome by Vif.

Abstract
We have determined the sequence of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) vif genes from a cohort of 42 long-term nonprogressors (LTNP) and compared these sequences to those of 8 late progressors. The coding potential of the vif open reading frame directly derived by nested PCR from uncultured peripheral blood mononuclear cell DNA was conserved in all 50 individuals. The nucleotide distances between vif sequences were not significantly different between LTNP and late progressors, indicating similar selections of viruses within both types of long-term HIV-1-infected subjects. However, a statistically significant correlation between an amino acid signature at position 132 of Vif and the viral load was found within LTNP. Namely, amino acid Ser was associated with low viral load and amino acid Arg with high viral load. This signature was also observed when LTNP with low viral load were compared to progressors. The Ser132 signature was introduced in place of Arg132 present in the HIV-1 YU-2 Vif prototype into chimeric viruses to assess the impact of Vif signature on the virus. While the replication properties in the SupT1 cell line were unmodified, the mutagenized virus revealed a fivefold decreased replication in activated PBMC, suggesting a possible role of this Vif signature for viral production in vivo.

Abstract
It has been shown previously that proteinase 3 (PR3), a neutrophil intracellular protease that is the main antigen of antineutrophil cytoplasm (ANCA) autoantibodies, is present on the plasma membrane of a subset of freshly isolated neutrophils. This study shows that the size of this subset of membrane PR3-positive (mPR3+) neutrophils is a stable feature of a given individual, most likely genetically controlled. It ranges from 0 to 100% of neutrophils and allows us to define a new polymorphism in the healthy population, with three discrete phenotypes corresponding respectively to less than 20% mPR3 + neutrophils (mPR3low) or to a mean percentage of 47% (mPR3intermediate) and 71.5% (mPR3high) mPR3+ neutrophils. The frequency of the mPR3high phenotype was significantly increased in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis (85% versus 55% in healthy subjects). The percentage of mPR3+ neutrophils was not affected by disease activity, relapses, or therapy, and did not reflect in vivo cell activation. In addition, mPR3+ phenotypes were normally distributed in cystic fibrosis patients, indicating that infection and/or inflammation per se do not lead to a high percentage of mPR3+ neutrophils. The frequency of the mPR3high phenotype was not related to anti-PR3 autoimmunization, since it was increased in vasculitic patients regardless of the ANCA specificity (anti-PR3, anti-myeloperoxidase, or unknown). Interestingly, the frequency of the mPR3high phenotype was also increased in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. It was normal in type I-diabetes, a T cell-dependent autoimmune disease. It is proposed here that a high proportion of membrane PR3-positive neutrophils could favor the occurrence or the progression of chronic inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Blood phagocyte opsonin receptor CR1 (CD35) and CR3 (CD11b) functions were examined in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with endobronchial Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa chronic infection, CF patients without infection, heterozygous, non-CF patients with chronic pulmonary infection, and healthy controls. Circulating and platelet-activating factor (PAF)-primed phagocyte luminol luminescence responses to complement-opsonized zymosan were increased in both groups of infected CF and non-CF children relative to uninfected CF children and healthy control children and adults. The ratio between circulating and PAF-primed phagocyte responses was significantly elevated in all children with CF, and in these, the ratio could serve as an indicator of response to antibiotic treatment. The ratios of circulating and PAF-primed phenotypic expression for CR1, CR3, and FcgammaRIII (CD16), but not FcgammaRII (CD32), correlated with the functional ratios. Phagocyte opsonin receptor response capacity might be used for evaluation of inflammation and infection in CF patients.

Abstract
This study demonstrates (by flow cytometry and immunoprecipitation after cell surface radiolabeling and by using monoclonal antibodies to alpha v, beta 3, and alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5 complexes) that alpha v beta 3, the vitronectin receptor, and alpha v beta 5 are expressed in vitro on cultured human mesangial cells (HMC) of the 5th to 8th passages. Antibodies to alpha v, beta 3 and alpha v beta 3 respectively precipitated an alpha beta heterodimer with molecular weights of 140 and 97 kDa. We analyzed the role of the various integrins in HMC interactions with vitronectin, and with fibronectin and von Willebrand factor (vWf), which are synthetized respectively by mesangial and endothelial cells. Cell adhesion increased in a dose dependent manner with the concentration of plastic-coated matrix protein and vWf. Inhibition of cell attachment with monoclonal antibodies to integrins indicated that HMC adhesion to vWf primarily involves alpha v beta 3, and that alpha v beta 5 may also contribute to cell binding to vWf. Adhesion to vitronectin involves both alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5 complexes. In contrast, adhesion to fibronectin was not affected by monoclonal antibodies to alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5 complexes. We propose that integrins alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5, present on HMC, could mediate an interaction between mesangial and endothelial cells by binding to vWf, released at the basal site of endothelial cells.

Abstract
The present study addresses the question of a possible linkage between the cystic fibrosis (CF) genetic autosomal recessive disorder and disturbance in neutrophil function. Neutrophil-dominated chronic airway inflammation is present at an early age in children with CF, even in the absence of detectable infection. As evidenced by extracellular superoxide anion release (measured by lucigenin luminescence) or intracellular hydrogen peroxide production (measured by 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein (DCF) fluorescence), no significant difference in the nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity of isolated neutrophils was observed in noninfected CF children (homozygotes), their mothers or fathers (CF heterozygotes), and controls. In contrast, both myeloperoxidase (MPO)-dependent oxygenation activity (measured by luminol luminescence) and chloramine release were increased significantly in both CF homozygotes and heterozygotes as compared with controls. In the presence of either amiloride (a sodium channel inhibitor and sodium/proton antiport blocker) or EIPA (5-ethyl-N-isopropyl-amiloride, a specific inhibitor of the antiport), or choline buffer, intracellular MPO activity was decreased significantly in controls and in the CF homozygotes and heterozygotes, thus bringing intracellular MPO-dependent activity in CF subjects back to the level of controls. Extracellular release of MPO, measured by an ELISA to provide an activity-independent assessment of the enzyme, was increased only in CF homozygotes, and was decreased by amiloride and choline buffer, but not by EIPA. We conclude that a modification of intracellular pH and/or ionic concentrations may be related to the altered MPO enzymatic activity observed in CF neutrophils.

Abstract
In the present study we investigated the modulation of the polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN)-endothelial cell adhesion process by the two main proteinases released from activated PMN during their adhesion to endothelium. Our results showed that, in contrast with elastase, cathepsin G was a powerful inhibitor of PAIN adhesion to interleukin-1 (IL-1)-treated human umbilical vein endothelial cells. This inhibitory effect was linked to the enzymatic activity of the proteinase and was selectively directed against PMN. Because the viability and the reactivity of PMN were not modified by cathepsin G, we looked for a possible effect on adhesion molecules. L-selectin was not cleaved by cathepsin G, whereas it was by chymotrypsin, a closely related proteinase. Cathepsin G blocked PMN adhesion to activated endothelial cells, but also to serum- or fibrinogen-coated plates, three adhesion processes mediated by CD11b/CD18. However, by FACScan analysis or by immunoprecipitation, we failed to find evidence of modifications of CD11b/CD18 expression. Although the precise molecular target(s) of cathepsin G remain(s) to be defined, these data indicate that this proteinase, which is known as an inflammatory mediator, can also be considered as a potential down-regulator of adhesion reactions involved in the inflammatory process.

Abstract
Beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2M) is responsible for dialysis-associated amyloidosis. Level of beta 2M in plasma increase during chronic renal failure; however, retention does not appear to be the sole mechanism responsible. The effect of metabolic acidosis on beta 2M production was examined. Thirty-six patients with stable chronic renal insufficiency, 12 uremic patients before their first dialysis, 8 hemodialysis patients who were assigned to acetate or bicarbonate dialysate and then crossed over to the alternative regimen, and 6 normal subjects given NH4Cl to initiate metabolic acidosis were studied. In vitro studies in the human myeloid cell line U 937 were also performed. beta 2M protein was measured with ELISA, beta 2M mRNA was measured with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and the U 937 cells were studied at two pH levels with FACScan flow cytometry. The cells were exposed in vitro up to 60 min in a buffered incubation medium to either pH 5.10 or pH 7.34. An inverse correlation was found between beta 2M and bicarbonate concentrations in plasma in the stable chronic renal failure patients (r = -0.54; P < 0.05) and in the uremic patients before their first dialysis (r = -0.72; P < 0.05). In hemodialysis patients, blood pH and plasma bicarbonate values were lower (P < 0.05) and beta 2M concentrations in plasma were higher (P < 0.05) with acetate than with bicarbonate dialysate. In normal men, NH4Cl resulted in an increase (P < 0.05) in beta 2M mRNA expression in lymphocytes by an average factor of 1.5 (range, 1.1 to 1.8). In U 937 cells, the cell surface expression of beta 2M and HLA Class I heavy chain assembled with beta 2M decreased at low pH compared with normal pH. Concomitantly, an increase in beta 2M release into the supernatant was observed, possibly as the result of beta 2M dissociation from cell surface HLA Class I complex. The results suggest that metabolic acidosis may enhance cellular beta 2M generation and release.

Abstract
Proteinase 3, which is known as an intracellular serine protease of neutrophils, was detected at the surface of a subpopulation of freshly isolated PMN. The proportion of PR3-positive and -negative PMN, observed by flow cytometry with anti-PR3 mAbs or ANCA autoantibodies, varies among individuals but is extremely stable for each individual over prolonged time periods. After PMN degranulation by FMLP with cyt. B, membrane PR3 expression increases but the proportion of low and high PR3-expressing cells remains stable. The existence of a subset of PMN which spontaneously expresses PR3 and varies among individuals, may be relevant to the pathogenesis of anti-PR3 ANCA autoantibody-related vasculitis.

Abstract
In vitro analysis of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) has allowed various stages of cell activation to be distinguished, characterized by the expression level of specific membrane markers and of functional receptors. Among those, TNF-alpha receptors (TNF-R) are modulated by various PMN activators, a mechanism which may be important to control cell responses to TNF in inflammatory reactions such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). PMN, isolated from the blood of 36 RA patients and from the synovial fluid of 23 of them, were analysed for membrane expression of the two TNF-R (p55 and p75). Soluble p55 and p75 (sTNF-R) and TNF concentrations were measured in the plasma and synovial fluid by specific ELISA assays. Our results show that PMN from the blood of RA patients bear a normal number of TNF-R, with a normal p55/p75 ratio, compared with PMN from normal controls. Soluble TNF-R levels were similar in patients and normal plasma. In spite of high endogenous TNF concentration, patients' circulating PMN were not activated, as shown by a CD11b/CD18 expression similar to that of control resting cells. In contrast with blood neutrophils, PMN from RA patients' synovial fluids had an activated phenotype, characterized by increased expression of CD11b, decreased expression of leukosialin, CD43, and the appearance on the plasma membrane of an azurophil granule protein, CD63. High levels of soluble TNF-R were measured in RA synovial fluids. Nevertheless, membrane TNF-R levels and p55 and p75 proportions were similar to those of PMN from normal blood. These results suggest the existence of regulatory mechanisms which maintain a stable neutrophil expression of TNF-R as well as a balance between both types of receptors in inflammatory situations where neutrophils are strongly activated.

Abstract
Leukosialin (CD43) is a sialic acid-rich molecule with a relative molecular mass (M(r)) of 140,000 highly represented on polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) and on most leukocytes. One of its functions may be to prevent nonspecific cell-to-cell interactions through negative charge repulsions. As tested by immunofluorescence, neutrophil CD43 membrane expression was shown to decrease by up to 80% upon cell activation by phorbol myristate acetate (10 ng/ml) or by N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine (FMLP; 10(-6) M) in the presence of cytochalasin B. The kinetic of this decrease paralleled that of CD11b up-regulation. FMLP alone, tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), lipopolysaccharide and granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor had moderate or insignificant effects, while inducing striking CD11b up-regulation. Cell priming with TNF-alpha followed by FMLP stimulation resulted in up to 40% decrease of CD43 expression. Anti-CD43 mAb immunoprecipitated three fragments of M(r) 130,000, 49,000 and 34,000 from the cell-free supernatant of activated neutrophils, suggesting that CD43 is released from the membrane by proteolysis. Indeed, the decrease in CD43 expression was inhibited by phenylmethanesulfonylfluoride (PMSF). Homotypic aggregation of activated PMN was also inhibited by PMSF and could result, at least in part, from the shedding of CD43. The shedding of such a strongly anionic and major membrane protein should drastically modify PMN surface charge and may allow previously hindered interactions by exposing new adhesion molecules.

Abstract
In human neutrophils, the velocity of the lyso paf-acether:acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase reaction was almost 2-fold higher in the presence of lyso paf-acether bearing a 16:0 alkyl chain at the sn-1 position of glycerol than in that of its 18:0 analog. The paf-acether produced from an equimolar mixture of the two substrates was a 5:1 mixture, respectively, of the 16:0 and 18:0 species. The ratio of 16:0/18:0 lyso paf-acether in microsomal fractions, as analyzed by gas chromatography, was close to 1, whereas the paf-acether formed in these fractions from endogenous phospholipids was nearly exclusively of the 16:0 form. We conclude that acetyltransferase possesses a higher affinity for 16:0 than for 18:0 lyso-PAF and thus might control the molecular composition of paf-acether synthesized by stimulated human polymorphonuclear neutrophils.

Abstract
Antigen stimulation of cultured bone-marrow-derived mast cells sensitized with specific monoclonal IgE induced cell degranulation and paf-acether (paf; 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) biosynthesis via the deacylation/acetylation (remodelling) pathway. Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA; 20-100 ng/ml) triggered only acetyltransferase activation, without concomitant lyso-paf (1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) and paf formation. A low concentration of PMA (5 ng/ml) potentiated antigen-induced degranulation, acetyltransferase activation and paf formation by about 30% but did not change the level of lyso-paf formation. Stimulation of mast cells with antigen increased intracellular Ca2+ from 61 to 269 nM, whereas no modification of Ca2+ influx was observed when cells were pretreated with PMA (5 ng/ml) before antigen challenge. Gas chromatography coupled to electron capture detection revealed that the composition of paf formed by cells stimulated by antigen alone was similar to that of paf formed by PMA-primed antigen-stimulated cells; 84 +/- 8% and 79 +/- 2% (means +/- S.E.M., n = 3) of molecules respectively bore the C16:0 alkyl chain moiety, with the remainder bearing essentially C18:0 molecules. Overnight treatment of mast cells with PMA (200 ng/ml) caused disappearance of protein kinase C (PKC) from both cytosol and membranes. When such cells were stimulated further with antigen, they failed to degranulate, and acetyltransferase activation, paf production and lyso-paf production were decreased by 33 +/- 11%, 57 +/- 4% and 96 +/- 3% respectively (n = 3 or 5). The PKC inhibitors chlorpromazine and staurosporine inhibited to a significant extent both cell degranulation and all steps leading to paf biosynthesis. Our data suggest that PKC-dependent mechanisms are operational during cell degranulation and contribute only in part to paf biosynthesis. The PKC-dependent signal directly generated by PMA or diacylglycerol is not sufficient to trigger the full cell response, which is obtained only through receptor-operated antigen challenge.

Abstract
A new method to quantitate paf-acether (paf) was developed. It is based on the measurement of serotonin released from washed rabbit platelets challenged with paf. Platelets (1 X 10(8)/ml) were exposed with or without stirring to various concentrations of paf (26-130 pM) at 37 degrees C or at room temperature. Supernatants were submitted to a 4-min liquid chromatography run and serotonin was measured by electrochemical detection. We quantitated paf from three different biological sources, human neutrophils, mouse peritoneal macrophages, and cultured mast cells, comparing a classical method, i.e., platelet aggregation with the electrochemical detection of endogenous serotonin. We found similar results since, when compared with the aggregation method, the results differed by 12 to 47%. The sensitivity of both methods was 26 pM. The between-day variation coefficient was 23 and 14% (n = 12) for the aggregation method and the serotonin release, respectively, whereas the within-day variation coefficient for serotonin quantitation was less than 5% (n = 12). The superiority of the new method lies in its simplicity, the economy of platelets, and its possibility of automation. It can be applied to any agonist or any mechanism capable of releasing serotonin from platelets and more generally when a simple and fast method for measuring serotonin is desirable.

Abstract
We tested the hypothesis that protein kinase C might play a role in the biosynthesis of platelet-activating factor (paf-acether) in human neutrophils. PMA but not its inactive analog 4-alpha-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate induced lyso paf-acether production, followed by acetyltransferase activation, leading to paf-acether synthesis and release. Moreover, PMA was twice as powerful compared to opsonized zymosan (OPZ). 1-Oleoyl-2-acetyl-glycerol also induced acetyltransferase activation and paf and lyso paf production. The paf-acether formed by PMA or OPZ stimulation was composed of alkyl chains C16:0 (84.3 +/- 5% and 80.7 +/- 3.5%, respectively, and C18:0 (15.7 +/- 5% and 19.3 +/- 3.5%, respectively, means +/- SEM) as assessed by gas chromatography-electron capture detection. The inhibitor of protein kinase C, D-sphingosine, markedly decreased paf and lyso paf production and acetyltransferase activation in PMA- as well as OPZ-stimulated neutrophils. These results strongly suggest the involvement of protein kinase C in signal transduction during cell stimulation, leading to the paf biosynthesis.

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA:1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine acetyltransferase is the key enzyme in paf-acether (paf) biosynthesis, since it yields the active mediator from its nonacetylated precursor, lyso-paf. In microsomal fractions obtained from the ionophore A23187-stimulated human polymorphonuclear neutrophils, the optimal conditions allowing the full acetylation of lyso-paf were: 2-2.5 mg.ml-1 bovine serum albumin, 40 microM lyso-paf, 200 microM acetyl-CoA and acetyltransferase of high specific activity, at least 18 nmol.min-1.mg protein- -1. The reaction frequently stopped before the substrate was consumed due to spontaneous decay of the enzyme activity at 37 degrees C and inhibition of the enzyme by the paf formed in the reaction. However, low concentrations of acetyltransferase substrates (lyso-paf or lysophosphatidylcholine) and the antioxidant dithiothreitol, but not the inhibitors of proteinases or phosphatases, protected the enzyme against decay. In contrast, high concentrations of those lyso substrates inhibited the enzyme activity in the assay. This inhibition as well as that due to paf was overcome by raising the concentration of the enzyme contained in the microsomal fraction or the bovine serum albumin in the assay. These results suggest that the biosynthesis of paf in cell-free assay and most probably in intact cells might be controlled to a larger extent by the acetyltransferase concentration rather than by that of its substrates.

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase (1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) is a key enzyme in paf-acether biosynthesis. Its immunological activation as related to paf-acether formation was investigated in mast cells derived from mouse bone marrow. The action of ketotifen, a prophylactic anti-asthma drug, on the antigen-induced activation of acetyltransferase and on the release of paf-acether and beta-hexosaminidase was studied in mast cells. Mast cells were sensitized with dinitrophenyl-specific monoclonal IgE and preincubated for 15 min at 37 degrees C with various concentrations of ketotifen or vehicle prior to challenge with dinitrophenyl coupled to bovine serum albumin (40 ng/ml). Acetyltransferase activity and mediator formation and release were measured. Ketotifen inhibited dose dependently the antigen-induced paf-acether formation and release, beta-hexosaminidase release and acetyltransferase stimulation. The IC50 values were 20.0 +/- 4.4, 11.8 +/- 6.2, 8.8 +/- 3.8 and 20.5 +/- 3.4 microM (mean +/- S.E.M., n = 3) respectively. Mast cells were preincubated with 50 microM ketotifen for 15 min at 37 degrees C then washed prior to antigen challenge. The release of paf-acether and beta-hexosaminidase and the stimulation of acetyltransferase were inhibited by 90.0 +/- 15.0, 91.0 +/- 15.0 and 88.0 +/- 11.0% (n = 3) respectively. In addition, Ca2+ entry was inhibited by 100% as assessed from Quin-2 fluorescence. Thus, the release of a preformed granular enzyme beta-hexosaminidase is inhibited by ketotifen together with the enzymatic formation of a newly formed mediator.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Abstract
Mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells passively sensitized with monoclonal IgE released paf-acether (platelet-activating factor) and beta-hexosaminidase when challenged with the specific antigen. The formation and the release of paf-acether followed an early increase in the activity of the acetyltransferase, the main enzyme in paf-acether biosynthesis. The antigen-induced activation of the acetyltransferase was dependent on physiologic temperature and on the presence of Ca2+. By using microsomal fractions from unchallenged and challenged mast cells, the Vmax values were 3.5 and 12.0 nmol/min/mg of protein, respectively, whereas in both cases a Km value for acetyl-coenzyme A of 172 microM was measured. The stimulation of acetyltransferase could be mimicked in vitro under experimental conditions which favor phosphorylation, i.e. adding ATP and Mg2+ to lysates from unchallenged mast cells. In contrast, ATP and Mg2+ were uneffective on lysates from challenged cells that exhibited high level of acetyltransferase activity, suggesting that phosphorylation of the enzyme already took place at the time of cell stimulation. Moreover, addition of alkaline phosphatase to microsomal fraction obtained from either antigen-challenged mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells or unchallenged cells, resulted in 52% and 43% loss of acetyltransferase activity, respectively. Phorbol myristate acetate treatment of cells doubled the enzyme activity supporting the phosphorylation hypothesis. Thus, we report on the immunologic activation of a key enzyme for paf-acether synthesis and on the mechanism of this activation in a pure mast cell population. A link between bridging of IgE receptors and the activation of an enzyme critical to the formation of a lipid mediator is thereby evidenced.

Abstract
The effect of dexamethasone (DM) on the immunologic and nonimmunologic release of paf-acether and of the granule marker beta-hexosaminidase (BHEX) from mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMC) was studied. BMMC (1 X 10(6] in a modified Tyrode's solution containing 0.25% bovine serum albumin (BSA) were sensitized with an optimal dose of dinitrophenyl (DNP)-specific monoclonal IgE, and were washed before challenge with 40 ng/ml of DNP coupled to BSA. Preincubation of BMMC for 24 hr with 1 nM to 1 microM DM inhibited in a dose-dependent fashion the immunologic release of paf-acether and of BHEX as compared with control cells, with a half-maximal effect at 20 nM and 4 nM respectively. By contrast, the ionophore A23187 (1 microM)-induced release of paf-acether and of BHEX was unaffected by DM pretreatment. Finally, the antigen-induced increase in acetyltransferase activity, used as an index of cellular activation, was inhibited by 37 +/- 16% in 1 microM DM-treated BMMC as compared with untreated cells. Preincubation of BMMC with DM for 24 hr caused a dose-dependent inhibition of 125I-IgE binding to the cells, with a half-maximal effect at 14 nM. As determined by Scatchard analysis, the number of IgE Fc receptors was decreased by 55% in 1 microM DM-treated BMMC as compared with untreated cells, although the dissociation constants were comparable (control: 12.6 +/- 4.1 nM; DM-treated cells: 14.1 +/- 6.7 nM; mean +/- 1 SD; n = 3). Cytofluorometer analysis of BMMC sensitized with a saturating amount of purified monoclonal IgE, followed by addition of a fluoresceinated anti-mouse IgG (heavy and light chains), revealed a single cellular population for both DM-treated and untreated BMMC. This demonstrates that the DM-induced decrease in IgE Fc receptor expression was exhibited by every BMMC. The possible link between the decreased sensitization of the cells consequent to the reduction in IgE Fc receptor expression and the alteration of the secretory response and acetyltransferase activity was investigated. BMMC were incubated with IgE under experimental conditions giving half-sensitization of the cells. Upon antigen challenge, a 10.5 +/- 3.7% decrease in acetyltransferase activity and a 29.2 +/- 3.5% decrease in paf-acether release were observed with half-sensitized cells as compared with cells sensitized with a saturating amount of IgE.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
It is well documented that ether-lipids, especially the 1-0-alkyl-2-0-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, can serve as precursors in paf-acether (platelet-activating factor) biosynthesis. This study was undertaken to determine the amount of these compounds in two cell types which are good producers of paf-acether: human neutrophils and rabbit platelets. The method of phospholipid analysis was based on selective destruction of diacyl molecules by lipase from guinea pig pancreas and of plasmalogens by acidolysis; phospholipids were then separated by bidimensional thin-layer chromatography. In platelets as in neutrophils, the major phospholipids were choline (37%) and ethanolamine (30 and 32%, respectively) phosphoglycerides and sphingomyelin (18 and 16%, respectively). In rabbit platelets the 1-alkyl molecules represented 15% of the choline class (0.7 nmol/10(7) cells). Neutrophils differed strikingly from platelets by the high level of these molecules which constituted 50% of the choline class (16.3 nmol/10(7) cells). It therefore appears that in the two cell types, the amount of 1-0-alkyl-2-0-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine largely exceeded that would be necessary for paf-acether biosynthesis.
