(CD147) Is Induced by C/Ebpβ and Is Differentially Expressed in ALK+
Laboratory Investigation (2017) 97, 1095–1102 © 2017 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved 0023-6837/17 EMMPRIN (CD147) is induced by C/EBPβ and is differentially expressed in ALK+ and ALK − anaplastic large-cell lymphoma Janine Schmidt1, Irina Bonzheim1, Julia Steinhilber1, Ivonne A Montes-Mojarro1, Carlos Ortiz-Hidalgo2, Wolfram Klapper3, Falko Fend1 and Leticia Quintanilla-Martínez1 Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive (ALK+) anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) is characterized by expression of oncogenic ALK fusion proteins due to the translocation t(2;5)(p23;q35) or variants. Although genotypically a T-cell lymphoma, ALK+ ALCL cells frequently show loss of T-cell-specific surface antigens and expression of monocytic markers. C/EBPβ, a transcription factor constitutively overexpressed in ALK+ ALCL cells, has been shown to play an important role in the activation and differentiation of macrophages and is furthermore capable of transdifferentiating B-cell and T-cell progenitors to macrophages in vitro. To analyze the role of C/EBPβ for the unusual phenotype of ALK+ ALCL cells, C/EBPβ was knocked down by RNA interference in two ALK+ ALCL cell lines, and surface antigen expression profiles of these cell lines were generated using a Human Cell Surface Marker Screening Panel (BD Biosciences). Interesting candidate antigens were further analyzed by immunohistochemistry in primary ALCL ALK+ and ALK − cases. Antigen expression profiling revealed marked changes in the expression of the activation markers CD25, CD30, CD98, CD147, and CD227 after C/EBPβ knockdown. Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed a strong, membranous CD147 (EMMPRIN) expression in ALK+ ALCL cases. In contrast, ALK − ALCL cases showed a weaker CD147 expression. -

Molecular Signatures of G-Protein-Coupled Receptors A

Madan Babu1 G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are physiologically important membrane proteins that sense signalling molecules such as hormones and neurotransmitters, and are the targets of several prescribed drugs. Recent exciting developments are providing unprecedented insights into the structure and function of several medically important GPCRs. Here, through a systematic analysis of high-resolution GPCR structures, we uncover a conserved network of non-covalent contacts that defines the GPCR fold. Furthermore, our comparative analysis reveals characteristic features of ligand binding and conformational changes during receptor activation. A holistic understanding that integrates molecular and systems biology of GPCRs holds promise for new therapeutics and personalized medicine. ignal transduction is a fundamental biological process that is comprehensively, and in the process expand the current frontiers of required to maintain cellular homeostasis and to ensure coordi- GPCR biology.

Application Note
APPLICATION NOTE Quantification of functional C5a using iLite® C5a Assay Ready Cells For research and professional use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. This application note contains a suggested protocol and performance data. Each individual laboratory must set up their own method and perform relevant validations. Background Complement component 5a (C5a) is a 74 amino acid small protein fragment of complement protein 5 (C5). C5 is cleaved to C5a and C5b by C5 convertase enzymes as a result of complement activation. Factors of the coagulation and fibrinolytic pathway are also able to cleave C5 to C5a. (1) C5a is a highly potent anaphylatoxin and chemoattracting peptide, with the ability to increase blood vessel permeability, stimulate cytokine release from myeloid cells, and expression of adhesion molecules on endothelial cells. (2) Main pro-inflammatory effector functions are induced by C5a binding to a seven-transmembrane G- protein-coupled receptor, C5aR1 (CD88). Rapidly after cleavage of C5 into C5a and C5b, C5a is metabolized by carboxypeptidases which removes the C-terminal arginine and forms C5a-desArg, a less potent ligand of C5aR1. C5a can also bind to a second receptor, C5aR2 (C5L2 or GPR77), however the biological effects associated with C5a binding C5aR2 are less well understood, both anti- inflammatory and pro-inflammatory effects have been described in literature. The C5a receptors are expressed in a wide range of cells and tissues, and the effect of C5a activation is dependent on the location of the C5a receptors. (3, 4) While the complement system is an important part of the innate immune defense against pathogens, research has shown that excessive complement activation including C5a-C5aR interaction plays a central role in several autoimmune and neurodegenerative disorders as well as in acute and chronic inflammatory conditions. -

Neutrophil Chemoattractant Receptors in Health and Disease: Double-Edged Swords
Cellular & Molecular Immunology www.nature.com/cmi REVIEW ARTICLE Neutrophil chemoattractant receptors in health and disease: double-edged swords Mieke Metzemaekers1, Mieke Gouwy1 and Paul Proost 1 Neutrophils are frontline cells of the innate immune system. These effector leukocytes are equipped with intriguing antimicrobial machinery and consequently display high cytotoxic potential. Accurate neutrophil recruitment is essential to combat microbes and to restore homeostasis, for inflammation modulation and resolution, wound healing and tissue repair. After fulfilling the appropriate effector functions, however, dampening neutrophil activation and infiltration is crucial to prevent damage to the host. In humans, chemoattractant molecules can be categorized into four biochemical families, i.e., chemotactic lipids, formyl peptides, complement anaphylatoxins and chemokines. They are critically involved in the tight regulation of neutrophil bone marrow storage and egress and in spatial and temporal neutrophil trafficking between organs. Chemoattractants function by activating dedicated heptahelical G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In addition, emerging evidence suggests an important role for atypical chemoattractant receptors (ACKRs) that do not couple to G proteins in fine-tuning neutrophil migratory and functional responses. The expression levels of chemoattractant receptors are dependent on the level of neutrophil maturation and state of activation, with a pivotal modulatory role for the (inflammatory) environment. Here, we provide an overview -
