Gavin*,† Nucleotide-binding and oligomerization domain (NOD)–like receptors NOD1 and NOD2 are cytosolic innate immune receptors that recognize microbial peptidoglycans. Although studies have addressed the role of NOD proteins in innate immune responses, little attention has been given to their impact on the developing adaptive immune system. We have assessed the roles of NOD1 and NOD2 deficiency on T cell development in mice. Our results demonstrate that NOD1 and NOD2 promote the positive selection/ maturation of CD8 single-positive thymocytes in a thymocyte-intrinsic manner. TCR-mediated ERK phosphorylation is signifi- cantly reduced in the absence of NOD proteins, but receptor-interacting protein 2 is not involved in CD8 single-positive thymocyte Downloaded from selection or ERK signaling. Commensal bacteria–free animals have thymocyte maturation defects, and exogenous NOD ligands can enhance thymocyte maturation in culture. These results raise the intriguing possibility that abnormal lymphocyte responses observed in NOD-dependent inflammatory diseases are not driven solely by microbial signals in the gut, but may also involve intrinsic lymphocyte defects resulting from impaired CD8 T cell thymic development.

Emerging evidences suggested a potential role of NLRs in anti‑neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)‑associated vasculitis (AAV). This study aimed to investigate the expression of nucleotide‑binding oligomerization domain con‑ taining protein 2 (NOD2), NOD‑like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) and NOD‑like receptor family CARD domain containing 5 (NLRC5) in kidneys of AAV patients, and further explored their associations with clinical and pathological parameters. Methods: Thirty‑four AAV patients in active stage were recruited. Their renal specimens were processed with immu‑ nohistochemistry to assess the expression of three NLRs, and with double immunofuorescence to detect NLRs on intrinsic and infltrating cells. Analysis of gene expression was also adopted in cultured human podocytes. The associa‑ tions between expression of NLRs and clinicopathological parameters were analyzed. Results: The expression of NOD2, NLRP3 and NLRC5 was signifcantly higher in kidneys from AAV patients than those from normal controls, minimal change disease or class IV lupus nephritis. These NLRs co‑localized with podocytes and infltrating infammatory cells.

The differences in vulnerability to leprosy, the spectral immune response, and the clinical manifestations of this disease are related to different genetic backgrounds among individuals. In this sense, genetic variants, especially in genes related to mycobacteria recognition and host immune response, may be key factors to explain individual susceptibility and resistance to leprosy and their conditions. In this chapter, studies regarding association of genetic variants in pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) and leprosy will be reviewed revealing the importance of molecules such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (NOD2) in leprosy initiation and maintenance. Keywords: polymorphisms, pattern-recognition receptors, mycobacterium leprae, leprosy 1. Introduction Leprosy is caused by Mycobacterium leprae, which is an intracellular bacterium with high infectivity and low pathogenicity. It means that there are a large number of people exposed to this pathogen; however, the majority of them are naturally resistant. On the other hand, some people develop leprosy once challenged with M. leprae. The people who develop disease may present different clinical forms of leprosy. Some of them develop a localized disease, named tuberculoid leprosy, with a strong host response, which does not avoid development of nerve injury and physical disabilities.

  • Cytotoxic T Cells Class I- Dependent Lymphocyte Killing by NLRC5 Deficiency Selectively Impairs
    The Journal of Immunology NLRC5 Deficiency Selectively Impairs MHC Class I- Dependent Lymphocyte Killing by Cytotoxic T Cells Francesco Staehli,* Kristina Ludigs,* Leonhard X.

Robson MacDonald,x Pedro Romero,x Walter Reith,‡ Greta Guarda,*,1 and Ju¨rg Tschopp*,1,2 Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) are intracellular proteins involved in innate-driven inflamma- tory responses. The function of the family member NLR caspase recruitment domain containing protein 5 (NLRC5) remains a matter of debate, particularly with respect to NF-kB activation, type I IFN, and MHC I expression. To address the role of NLRC5, we generated Nlrc5-deficient mice (Nlrc5D/D). In this article we show that these animals exhibit slightly decreased CD8+ T cell percentages, a phenotype compatible with deregulated MHC I expression. Of interest, NLRC5 ablation only mildly affected MHC I expression on APCs and, accordingly, Nlrc5D/D macrophages efficiently primed CD8+ T cells. In contrast, NLRC5 deficiency dramatically impaired basal expression of MHC I in T, NKT, and NK lymphocytes. NLRC5 was sufficient to induce MHC I expression in a human lymphoid cell line, requiring both caspase recruitment and LRR domains. Moreover, endogenous NLRC5 localized to the nucleus and occupied the proximal promoter region of H-2 genes. Consistent with downregulated MHC I expression, the elimination of Nlrc5D/D lymphocytes by cytotoxic T cells was markedly reduced and, in addition, we observed low NLRC5 expression in several murine and human lymphoid-derived tumor cell lines.

  • Autophagy Suppresses Ras-Driven Epithelial Tumourigenesis by Limiting the Accumulation of Reactive Oxygen Species
    OPEN Oncogene (2017) 36, 5576–5592 www.nature.com/onc ORIGINAL ARTICLE Autophagy suppresses Ras-driven epithelial tumourigenesis by limiting the accumulation of reactive oxygen species This article has been corrected since Advance Online Publication and a corrigendum is also printed in this issue. J Manent1,2,3,4,5,12, S Banerjee2,3,4,5, R de Matos Simoes6, T Zoranovic7,13, C Mitsiades6, JM Penninger7, KJ Simpson4,5, PO Humbert3,5,8,9,10 and HE Richardson1,2,5,8,11 Activation of Ras signalling occurs in ~ 30% of human cancers; however, activated Ras alone is not sufficient for tumourigenesis. In a screen for tumour suppressors that cooperate with oncogenic Ras (RasV12)inDrosophila, we identified genes involved in the autophagy pathway. Bioinformatic analysis of human tumours revealed that several core autophagy genes, including GABARAP, correlate with oncogenic KRAS mutations and poor prognosis in human pancreatic cancer, supporting a potential tumour- suppressive effect of the pathway in Ras-driven human cancers. In Drosophila, we demonstrate that blocking autophagy at any step of the pathway enhances RasV12-driven epithelial tissue overgrowth via the accumulation of reactive oxygen species and activation of the Jun kinase stress response pathway. Blocking autophagy in RasV12 clones also results in non-cell-autonomous effects with autophagy, cell proliferation and caspase activation induced in adjacent wild-type cells. Our study has implications for understanding the interplay between perturbations in Ras signalling and autophagy in tumourigenesis,

As members of the STAND ATPases, the NLRs are generally thought to share a similar model of ATP-dependent activation and effect. However, recent observations have challenged this paradigm to reveal novel and complex biochemical processes to discern NLRs from other STAND proteins. In this review, we highlight past findings that identify the regulatory importance of conserved ATP-binding and hydrolysis motifs within the nucleotide-binding NACHT domain of NLRs and explore recent breakthroughs that generate connections between NLR protein structure and function. Indeed, newly deposited NLR structures for NLRC4 and NLRP3 have provided unique perspectives on the ATP-dependency of inflammasome activation. Novel molecular dynamic simulations of NLRP3 examined the active site of ADP- and ATP-bound models. The findings support distinctions in nucleotide-binding domain topology with occupancy of ATP or ADP that are in turn disseminated on to the global protein structure.

NLRP3 infammasome activation is a newly identifed amplifying step in the pathogenesis of myocarditis. We previously have demonstrated that mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are cardioprotective in Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3)-induced myocarditis. In this study, MSC markedly inhibited left ventricular (LV) NOD2, NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18 mRNA expression in CVB3-infected mice. ASC protein expression, essential for NLRP3 infammasome assembly, increased upon CVB3 infection and was abrogated in MSC-treated mice. Concomitantly, CVB3 infection in vitro induced NOD2 expression, NLRP3 infammasome activation and IL-1β secretion in HL-1 cells, which was abolished after MSC supplementation. The inhibitory efect of MSC on NLRP3 infammasome activity in HL-1 cells was partly mediated via secretion of the anti-oxidative protein stanniocalcin-1. Furthermore, MSC application in CVB3-infected mice reduced the percentage of NOD2-, ASC-, p10- and/or IL-1β-positive splenic macrophages, natural killer cells, and dendritic cells. The suppressive efect of MSC on infammasome activation was associated with normalized expression of prominent regulators of myocardial contractility and fbrosis to levels comparable to control mice. In conclusion, MSC treatment in myocarditis could be a promising strategy limiting the adverse consequences of cardiac and systemic NLRP3 infammasome activation.

We have investigated the roles played by phagocytosis; sequestosome autophagy and LAP in vivo by exploiting the observation that the WD domain of ATG16L1 is required for 1/p62 inclusions; tissue LAP, but not autophagy.

  • The Role of Tlrs, Nlrs, and Rlrs in Mucosal Innate Immunity and Homeostasis
    nature publishing group REVIEW See ARTICLE page 29 The role of TLRs, NLRs, and RLRs in mucosal innate immunity and homeostasis E C L a v e l l e 1 , C M u r p h y 2 , L A J O ’ N e i l l 2 a n d E M C r e a g h 2 The mucosal surfaces of the gastrointestinal tract are continually exposed to an enormous antigenic load of microbial and dietary origin, yet homeostasis is maintained. Pattern recognition molecules (PRMs) have a key role in maintaining the integrity of the epithelial barrier and in promoting maturation of the mucosal immune system. Commensal bacteria modulate the expression of a broad range of genes involved in maintaining epithelial integrity, inflammatory responses, and production of antimicrobial peptides. Mice deficient in PRMs can develop intestinal inflammation, which is dependent on the microbiota, and in humans, PRM polymorphisms are associated with exacerbated inflammatory bowel disease. Innate immune responses and epithelial barrier function are regulated by PRM-induced signaling at multiple levels, from the selective expression of receptors on mucosal cells or compartments to the expression of negative regulators. Here, we describe recent advances in our understanding of innate signaling pathways, particularly by Toll-like receptors and nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat containing receptors at mucosal surfaces.
