Durable B cell persistence in the periphery is dependent on survival signals that are transduced by cell surface receptors. In this study, we describe a novel biological mechanism involved in mature B cell homeostasis, the hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF)/c-Met pathway. We demonstrate that c-Met activation by HGF leads to a survival cascade, whereas its blockade results in induction of mature B cell death. Our results emphasize a unique and critical function for c-Met signaling in the previously Downloaded from described macrophage migration inhibitory factor/CD74-induced survival pathway. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor recruits c-Met to the CD74/CD44 complex and thereby enables the induction of a signaling cascade within the cell. This signal results in HGF secretion, which stimulates the survival of the mature B cell population in an autocrine manner. Thus, the CD74–HGF/c-Met axis defines a novel physiologic survival pathway in mature B cells, resulting in the control of the humoral immune response.

  • CD74 Targeted Nanoparticles As Dexamethasone Delivery System for B Lymphoid Malignancies
    CD74 targeted nanoparticles as Dexamethasone Delivery System for B lymphoid malignancies DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Georgia Triantafillou, MPH Integrated Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee John C. Byrd, MD, advisor Natarajan Muthusamy, PhD co-advisor Robert J.Lee, PhD, co-advisor Mitch A.Phelps, PhD, co-advisor Guido Marcucci, MD committee member Susheela Tridandapani, PhD committee member Copyright page Georgia Triantafillou 2011 ABSTRACT Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is the most common adult leukemia and is not curable with standard therapy. In CLL the B lymphocytes appear morphologically mature but immunologically express less mature B cell makers. Specifically, the CLL B cells co-express surface antigens including CD19, CD20, CD5, CD23. Due to nonspecific delivery of the drugs to malignant as well as normal cells, patients experience numerous side effects. Targeted drug delivery to cancer cells is a desirable goal for all anti cancer strategies. Corticosteroids have been proven to be a beneficial and well established part of CLL treatment. Dexamethasone(DEX) is frequently used in CLL therapies as well as other malignancies and antiinflammatory diseases. However, DEX nonspecifically enters all tissues inducing various toxicities to patients. Therefore, DEX treatment is often discontinued or not administered to certain patients. We aimed to deliver this efficient clinical agent via a targeted delivery vehicle and examine its effect on its target B-CLL cells. The main scope of the work presented is the creation of a sterically stable nanoparticle, an ii immunoliposome (ILP), that has DEX encapsulated in its interior and a monoclonal antibody(Mab) in its exterior targeting CLL B cells expressing the surface antigen that is recognized by the Mab.

Despite having well defined markers to identify these cells in mice, technical limita- tions have prevented identification of a similar cell type across species. The inability to identify resident macrophage populations across species hinders the translation of data obtained from animal model to human patients. Methods As an entry point to determine novel markers that could identify resident macrophages across species, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) analysis of all T and B cell–negative CD45+ innate immune cells in mouse, rat, pig, and human kidney tissue. Results We identified genes with enriched expression in mouse renal resident macrophages that were also present in candidate resident macrophage populations across species. Using the scRNAseq data, we defined a novel set of possible cell surface markers (Cd74 and Cd81) for these candidate kidney resident macrophages. We confirmed, using parabiosis and flow cytometry, that these proteins are indeed enriched in mouse resident macrophages.

Herein, we present single-cell tran- scriptome profiling of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent histological lung cancer type diagnosed at stage IV in over 40% of all cases. From 208,506 cells populating the normal tissues or early to metastatic stage cancer in 44 patients, we identify a cancer cell subtype deviating from the normal differentiation trajectory and dominating the metastatic stage. In all stages, the stromal and immune cell dynamics reveal ontological and functional changes that create a pro-tumoral and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Normal resident myeloid cell populations are gradually replaced with monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells, along with T-cell exhaustion. This extensive single-cell analysis enhances our understanding of molecular and cellular dynamics in metastatic lung cancer and reveals potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets in cancer-microenvironment interactions. 1 Samsung Genome Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul 06351, Korea.

Luster Center for Immunology & Inflammatory Diseases, Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02114 Correspondence: [email protected] Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines that control the migration and positioning of immune cells in tissues and are critical for the function of the innate immune system. Chemokines control the release of innate immune cells from the bone marrow during homeostasis as well as in response to infection and inflammation. Theyalso recruit innate immune effectors out of the circulation and into the tissue where, in collaboration with other chemoattractants, they guide these cells to the very sites of tissue injury. Chemokine function is also critical for the positioning of innate immune sentinels in peripheral tissue and then, following innate immune activation, guiding these activated cells to the draining lymph node to initiate and imprint an adaptive immune response. In this review, we will highlight recent advances in understanding how chemokine function regulates the movement and positioning of innate immune cells at homeostasis and in response to acute inflammation, and then we will review how chemokine-mediated innate immune cell trafficking plays an essential role in linking the innate and adaptive immune responses. hemokines are chemotactic cytokines that with emphasis placed on its role in the innate Ccontrol cell migration and cell positioning immune system. throughout development, homeostasis, and in- flammation.

  • CD74 Interferes with the Expression of Fas Receptor on the Surface Of
    Berkova et al. Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research 2014, 33:80 http://www.jeccr.com/content/33/1/80 RESEARCH Open Access CD74 interferes with the expression of fas receptor on the surface of lymphoma cells Zuzana Berkova1, Shu Wang1, Xue Ao1, Jillian F Wise1, Frank K Braun1, Abdol H Rezaeian1, Lalit Sehgal1, David M Goldenberg2,3 and Felipe Samaniego1* Abstract Background: Resistance to Fas-mediated apoptosis limits the efficacy of currently available chemotherapy regimens. We identified CD74, which is known to be overexpressed in hematological malignancies, as one of the factors interfering with Fas-mediated apoptosis. Methods: CD74 expression was suppressed in human B-lymphoma cell lines, BJAB and Raji, by either transduction with lentivirus particles or transfection with episomal vector, both encoding CD74-specific shRNAs or non-target shRNA. Effect of CD74 expression on Fas signaling was evaluated by comparing survival of mice hydrodynamically transfected with vector encoding full-length CD74 or empty vector. Sensitivity of cells with suppressed CD74 expression to FasL, edelfosine, doxorubicin, and a humanized CD74-specific antibody, milatuzumab, was evaluatedbyflowcytometryandcomparedto control cells. Fas signaling in response to FasL stimulation and the expression of Fas signaling components were evaluated by Western blot. Surface expression of Fas was detected by flow cytometry. Results: We determined that cells with suppressed CD74 are more sensitive to FasL-induced apoptosis and Fas signaling-dependent chemotherapies, edelfosine and doxorubicin, than control CD74-expressing cells. On the other hand, expression of full-length CD74 in livers protected the mice from a lethal challenge with agonistic anti-Fas antibody Jo2. A detailed analysis of Fas signaling in cells lacking CD74 and control cells revealed increased cleavage/activation of pro-caspase-8 and corresponding enhancement of caspase-3 activation in the absence of CD74, suggesting that CD74 affects the immediate early steps in Fas signaling at the plasma membrane.

  • A New Prognostic Factor for Patients with Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
    FULL PAPER British Journal of Cancer (2014) 110, 2040–2046 | doi: 10.1038/bjc.2014.117 Keywords: malignant pleural mesothelioma; CD74; MIF; calretinin; prognosis; tissue microarray CD74: a new prognostic factor for patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma C Otterstrom1, A Soltermann2, I Opitz3, E Felley-Bosco4, W Weder3, R A Stahel4, F Triponez1, J H Robert1,5 and V Serre-Beinier*,1,5 1Division of Thoracic Surgery, University Hospitals of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland; 2Institute of Surgical Pathology, University Hospital Zu¨ rich, Zu¨ rich, Switzerland; 3Division of Thoracic Surgery, University Hospital Zu¨ rich, Zu¨ rich, Switzerland and 4Laboratory of Molecular Oncology, Clinic for Oncology, University Hospital Zu¨ rich, Zu¨ rich, Switzerland Background: The pro-inflammatory cytokine migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and its receptor CD74 have been proposed as possible therapeutic targets in several cancers. We studied the expression of MIF and CD74 together with calretinin in specimens of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), correlating their expression levels with clinico-pathologic parameters, in particular overall survival (OS). Methods: Migration inhibitory factor, CD74, and calretinin immunoreactivity were investigated in a tissue microarray of 352 patients diagnosed with MPM. Protein expression intensities were semiquantitatively scored in the tumour cells and in the peritumoral stroma. Markers were matched with OS, age, gender, and histological subtype. Results: Clinical data from 135 patients were available. Tumour cell expressions of MIF and CD74 were observed in 95% and 98% of MPM specimens, respectively, with a homogenous distribution between the different histotypes. CD74 (Po0.001) but not MIF overexpression (P ¼ 0.231) emerged as an independent prognostic factor for prolonged OS.
