Complement Recognition Pathways in Renal Transplantation
BRIEF REVIEW www.jasn.org Complement Recognition Pathways in Renal Transplantation Christopher L. Nauser, Conrad A. Farrar, and Steven H. Sacks Medical Research Council Centre for Transplantation, Division of Transplantation Immunology and Mucosal Biology, King’s College London, National Health Service Guy’s and St. Thomas’ Trust, London, United Kingdom ABSTRACT The complement system, consisting of soluble and cell membrane–bound compo- weigh its effect on organ injury and nents of the innate immune system, has defined roles in the pathophysiology of renal rejection with dampening the antimi- allograft rejection. Notably, the unavoidable ischemia-reperfusion injury inherent to crobial functions of the complement sys- transplantation is mediated through the terminal complement activation products tem, such as opsonisation, cell lysis, and C5a and C5b-9. Furthermore, biologically active fragments C3a and C5a, produced recruitment of neutrophils and other in- during complement activation, can modulate both antigen presentation and T cell flammatory cells.7 It is our belief that priming, ultimately leading to allograft rejection. Earlier work identified renal tubule therapeutic strategies can be designed cell synthesis of C3, rather than hepatic synthesis of C3, as the primary source of C3 to specificallytargetthekeyinitiators driving these effects. Recent efforts have focused on identifying the local triggers of of complement activation at the relevant complement activation. Collectin-11, a soluble C-type lectin expressed in renal tis- location, such as complement-binding sue, has been implicated as an important trigger of complement activation in renal anti-HLA antibodies in the vascular tissue. In particular, collectin-11 has been shown to engage L-fucose at sites of compartment or the initiator(s) of local ischemic stress, activating the lectin complement pathway and directing the innate complement activation in the extravas- immune response to the distressed renal tubule. -

The Case for Lupus Nephritis
Journal of Clinical Medicine Review Expanding the Role of Complement Therapies: The Case for Lupus Nephritis Nicholas L. Li * , Daniel J. Birmingham and Brad H. Rovin Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Nephrology, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA; [email protected] (D.J.B.); [email protected] (B.H.R.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-614-293-4997; Fax: +1-614-293-3073 Abstract: The complement system is an innate immune surveillance network that provides defense against microorganisms and clearance of immune complexes and cellular debris and bridges innate and adaptive immunity. In the context of autoimmune disease, activation and dysregulation of complement can lead to uncontrolled inflammation and organ damage, especially to the kidney. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by loss of tolerance, autoantibody production, and immune complex deposition in tissues including the kidney, with inflammatory consequences. Effective clearance of immune complexes and cellular waste by early complement components protects against the development of lupus nephritis, while uncontrolled activation of complement, especially the alternative pathway, promotes kidney damage in SLE. Therefore, complement plays a dual role in the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis. Improved understanding of the contribution of the various complement pathways to the development of kidney disease in SLE has created an opportunity to target the complement system with novel therapies to improve outcomes in lupus nephritis. In this review, we explore the interactions between complement and the kidney in SLE and their implications for the treatment of lupus nephritis.

Complement Receptor CD46 Co-Stimulates Optimal Human CD8 T

Walsh9, David Kavanagh9, Behdad Afzali 3,10, Paul Lavender2, Helen J. Lachmann11 & Claudia Kemper2,3,12 1234567890():,; The induction of human CD4+ Th1 cells requires autocrine stimulation of the complement receptor CD46 in direct crosstalk with a CD4+ T cell-intrinsic NLRP3 inflammasome. However, it is unclear whether human cytotoxic CD8+ T cell (CTL) responses also rely on an intrinsic complement-inflammasome axis. Here we show, using CTLs from patients with CD46 deficiency or with constitutively-active NLRP3, that CD46 delivers co-stimulatory signals for optimal CTL activity by augmenting nutrient-influx and fatty acid synthesis. Sur- prisingly, although CTLs express NLRP3, a canonical NLRP3 inflammasome is not required for normal human CTL activity, as CTLs from patients with hyperactive NLRP3 activity function normally. These findings establish autocrine complement and CD46 activity as integral components of normal human CTL biology, and, since CD46 is only present in humans, emphasize the divergent roles of innate immune sensors between mice and men. 1 Division of Immunology, Transplantation and Infectious Diseases, San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milano, Italy. 2 School of Immunology and Microbial Sciences, King’s College London, London, UK. 3 Laboratory of Molecular Immunology and the Immunology Center, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Bethesda, MD, USA. -

Complement Receptor 1 Therapeutics for Prevention of Immune Hemolysis
Review: complement receptor 1 therapeutics for prevention of immune hemolysis K.YAZDANBAKHSH The complement system plays a crucial role in fighting infections biological activities, it has to be activated. Activation and is an important link between the innate and adaptive immune occurs in a sequence that involves proteolytic cleavage responses. However, inappropriate complement activation can cause tissue damage, and it underlies the pathology of many of the complement components, resulting in the diseases. In the transfusion medicine setting, complement release of active biological mediators and the assembly sensitization of RBCs can lead to both intravascular and of active enzyme molecules that result in cleavage of extravascular destruction. Moreover, complement deficiencies are 1 associated with autoimmune disorders, including autoimmune the next downstream complement component. hemolytic anemia (AIHA). Complement receptor 1 (CR1) is a large Depending on the nature of the activators, three single-pass glycoprotein that is expressed on a variety of cell types complement activation pathways have been described: in blood, including RBCs and immune cells. Among its multiple the antibody-dependent classical pathway and the functions is its ability to inhibit complement activation. Furthermore, gene knockout studies in mice implicate a role for antibody-independent alternative and lectin pathways CR1 (along with the alternatively spliced gene product CR2) in (Fig. 1).1 Common to all three pathways are two prevention of autoimmunity. This review discusses the possibility critical steps: the assembly of the C3 convertase that the CR1 protein may be manipulated to prevent and treat AIHA.

Erythrocytes Lacking the Langereis Blood Group Protein ABCB6 Are Resistant to the Malaria Parasite Plasmodium Falciparum

Gygi4, Yoshihiko Tani6 & Manoj T. Duraisingh1 The ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCB6 was recently discovered to encode the Lan- gereis (Lan) blood group antigen. Lan null individuals are asymptomatic, and the function of ABCB6 in mature erythrocytes is not understood. Here, we assessed ABCB6 as a host factor for Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites during erythrocyte invasion. We show that Lan null erythrocytes are highly resistant to invasion by P. falciparum, in a strain-transcendent manner. Although both Lan null and Jr(a-) erythrocytes harbor excess porphyrin, only Lan null erythrocytes exhibit a P. falciparum invasion defect. Further, the zoonotic parasite P. knowlesi invades Lan null and control cells with similar efficiency, suggesting that ABCB6 may mediate P. falciparum invasion through species-specific molecular interactions. Using tandem mass tag-based proteomics, we find that the only consistent difference in membrane proteins between Lan null and control cells is absence of ABCB6. Our results demonstrate that a newly identified naturally occurring blood group variant is associated with resistance to Plasmodium falciparum. 1 Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases, Harvard T.H.

Alternative Pathway of Complement: Demonstration and Characterization of Initiating Factor and Its Properdin-Independent Function*' $
ALTERNATIVE PATHWAY OF COMPLEMENT: DEMONSTRATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF INITIATING FACTOR AND ITS PROPERDIN-INDEPENDENT FUNCTION*' $ BY ROBERT D. SCHREIBER,§ OTTO GOTZE,II AND HANS J. MTJLLER-EBERHARD¶ (From the Department of Molecular Immunology, Scripps Clinic and Research Foundation, La Jolla, California 92037) In 1954 Pillemer and associates (2) introduced the properdin system as a humoral mechanism of natural resistance to infections. Although this provoca- tive hypothesis generated a large body of literature, it could not be critically evaluated until recently. The past 5 yr of complement research brought to light an unanticipated complexity of the properdin system. The design of a rational model of the properdin pathway had to await identification of the major compo- nents and insight into their interactions. In this communication and subsequent papers (3 and footnote 1), we wish to report the results of experiments that together with previously published obser- vations have allowed the formulation of a comprehensive molecular concept of the properdin pathway (4). The dynamics of the pathway involve the recruit- ment of the initiating factor (IF), 2 sequential formation of C3 and C5 conver- tases, activation of properdin, and stabilization of the enzymes by activated properdin. The biological consequences of this process are identical to those resulting from activation of the classical pathway: generation of the anaphyla- toxins, immune adherence reactivity, opsonic activity, and formation of the membrane attack complex. The purpose of this paper is to describe (a) the initiating factor as a novel serum protein, (b) its function in the assembly of the initial C3 convertase of the * This is publication number 1158.
