Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize microbial components and trigger the signaling cascade that activates the innate and adaptive immunity. TLR adaptor molecules play a central role in this cascade; thus, we hypothesized that overexpression of TLR adaptor molecules could mimic infection without any microbial components. Dual-promoter plasmids that carry an antigen and a TLR adaptor molecule such as the Toll-interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adaptor-inducing beta interferon (TRIF) or myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) were constructed and administered to mice to determine if these molecules can act as an adjuvant. A DNA vaccine incorporated with the MyD88 genetic adjuvant enhanced antigen-specific humoral immune responses, whereas that with the TRIF genetic adjuvant enhanced cellular immune responses. Incorporating the TRIF genetic adjuvant in a DNA vaccine targeting the influenza HA antigen or the tumor-associated antigen E7 conferred superior protection. These results indicate that TLR adaptor molecules can bridge innate and adaptive immunity and potentiate the effects of DNA vaccines against virus infection and tumors. 相似文献

Initiation of receptor-mediated endocytosis by nucleation of clathrin-coated pits involves binding of AP2 adaptor molecules to the plasma membrane. This process was reconstituted in vitro, using plasma membrane fragments, prepared by freeze-thaw lysis of cells, and stripped of their endogenous coat proteins, as targets for binding of purified adaptor molecules and their dissociated subunits. The dissociated alpha-adaptin subunit of AP2 bound to plasma membrane fragments, while the dissociated beta-adaptin subunit did not, suggesting that plasma membrane localization of AP2 adaptors is mediated by alpha-adaptin. Membrane binding of intact AP2 adaptor molecules was enhanced by adaptor self-aggregation, which can be modulated by physiological concentrations of inositol phosphates, and may therefore be sensitive to receptor signaling. Adaptor binding was partially inhibited by soluble peptides representing the cytoplasmic domains of the asialoglycoprotein receptor and the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor. These results indicate that direct binding of adaptors to the cytoplasmic domains of receptors contributes to coated pit nucleation but this appears to be a weak interaction, suggesting that an additional recognition signal could be required for high affinity adaptor binding. 相似文献

Motion of integral membrane proteins to the plasma membrane in response to G-protein-coupled receptor signals requires selective cargo recognition motifs that bind adaptor protein 1 and clathrin. Angiotensin II, through the activation of AT1 receptors, promotes the recruitment to the plasma membrane of Na,K-ATPase molecules from intracellular compartments. We present evidence to demonstrate that a tyrosine-based sequence (IVVY-255) present within the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit is involved in the binding of adaptor protein 1. Mutation of Tyr-255 to a phenylalanine residue in the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit greatly reduces the angiotensin II-dependent activation of Na,K-ATPase, recruitment of Na,K-ATPase molecules to the plasma membrane, and association of adaptor protein 1 with Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit molecules. To determine protein-protein interaction, we used fluorescence resonance energy transfer between fluorophores attached to the Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit and adaptor protein 1. Although angiotensin II activation of AT1 receptors induces a significant increase in the level of fluorescence resonance energy transfer between the two molecules, this effect was blunted in cells expressing the Tyr-255 mutant. Thus, results from different methods and techniques suggest that the Tyr-255-based sequence within the NKA alpha1-subunit is the site of adaptor protein 1 binding in response to the G-protein-coupled receptor signals produced by angiotensin II binding to AT1 receptors. 相似文献

Mast cells function as the initiator of the allergic reaction and play a role in the innate immune system. Aggregation of the high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) on mast cells triggers degranulation with the release of chemical mediators such as histamine, production of cytokines and leukotrienes. FcepsilonRI signals by activating proximal non-receptor type of protein-tyrosine kinases, Lyn, Syk, Btk and Fyn. Activated tyrosine kinases then phosphorylate their specific substrates which include other enzymes and adaptor proteins and assemble these cytoplasmic signaling molecules for cellular activation. The adaptor proteins have multiple domains that allow binding to effector molecules and therefore act as positive or negative regulators controlling FcepsilonRI signaling. Deletion of the adaptor proteins such as LAT, SLP-76 or Gab2 resulted in decreased FcepsilonRI-mediated anaphylactic reaction in vivo. Functional analysis of adaptor proteins has raised the possibility that they may be new targets for the discovery of anti-allergic drugs. 相似文献

Functions of toll-like receptors: lessons from KO mice 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
The innate immune response is a first-line defense system in which individual Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize distinct pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and exert subsequent immune responses against a variety of pathogens. TLRs are composed of an extracellular leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain and a cytoplasmic domain that is homologous to that of the IL-IR family. Upon stimulation, TLR recruits a cytoplasmic adaptor molecule MyD88, then IL-IR-associated kinase (IRAK), and finally induces activation of NF-kappaB and MAP kinases. However, the responses to TLR ligands differ, indicating the diversity of TLR signaling pathways. Besides MyD88, several novel adaptor molecules have recently been identified. Differential utilization of these adaptor molecules may provide the specificity in the TLR signaling. 相似文献

Cluster of differentiation ([CD]) 19 antigens are B-cell-specific molecules expressed on virtually all human cells of the B-lymphocyte lineage except plasma cells. We produced a new anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody (McAb), CLB-CD19, that was used to study the role of CD19 molecules in B-cell activation. Anti-CD19 McAb induced mobilization of free intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) in Daudi cells, but not in normal spleen or tonsillar B cells, for which crosslinking with a second anti-mouse Ig antibody was not required. Anti-CD19 McAb inhibited B-cell proliferation induced by anti-IgM coupled to Sepharose beads. This inhibitory effect was overcome by the addition of nonmitogenic concentrations of phorbol myristate acetate. Anti-CD19 McAb did not interfere with Staphylococcus aureus- or B-cell growth factor-induced B-cell proliferation. Anti-CD19 McAb inhibited T-cell-dependent polyclonal B-cell differentiation in pokeweed mitogen-, interleukin 2-, or anti-CD3-driven culture systems. Delayed addition studies showed that once differentiation of B cells was induced, CD19 molecules lost their regulating function. Taken together, our results indicate that CD19 molecules play a regulatory role in B-cell proliferation and differentiation. 相似文献

The question of whether surface immunoglobulin and Ia molecules have a signalling function in helper T cell-dependent activation of B cells has been evaluated. Two sources of B cells have been used, one a purified population of hapten-binding B cells, the other a B-cell lymphoma, CH12, with known antigen specificity. Evidence is presented that both immunoglobulin and Ia molecules are receptors actively involved in the initial activation of resting B cells. Nevertheless, the requirements for ligand binding to either receptor can be bypassed under appropriate conditions, and the implications of this result for the function of these molecules is discussed. With respect to B-cell Ia, the authors present data that demonstrate two distinct functions of this molecule, one as a restricting element for T-cell activation, the second as a signalling receptor for B-cell excitation. On the CH12 surface, the I-A molecule fulfills the former function, but T-cell interactions with I-A fail to result in B-cell stimulation, suggesting that B-cell Ia may limit helper T cell-B cell interactions. We suggest that the binding of antigen surface immunoglobulin and binding of helper T-cell receptors to the appropriate Ia molecule(s) results in the activation of genes that encode for a third class of membrane B-cell receptors, those that bind B-cell stimulating factors. 相似文献

Grb2 is a ubiquitously expressed adaptor protein, which activates Ras and MAP kinases in growth factor receptor signalling, while in B-cell receptor (BCR) signalling this role is controversial. In B cell lines it was shown that Grb2 can inhibit BCR-induced Ca(2+) signalling. Nonetheless, the physiological role of Grb2 in primary B cells is still unknown. We generated a B-cell-specific Grb2-deficient mouse line, which had a severe reduction of mature follicular B cells in the periphery due to a differentiation block and decreased B-cell survival. Moreover, we found several changes in important signalling pathways: enhanced BCR-induced Ca(2+) signalling, alterations in mitogen-activated protein kinase activation patterns and strongly impaired Akt activation, the latter pointing towards a defect in PI3K signalling. Interestingly, B-cell-specific Grb2-deficient mice showed impaired IgG and B-cell memory responses, and impaired germinal centre formation. Thus, Grb2-dependent signalling pathways are crucial for lymphocyte differentiation processes, as well as for control of secondary humoral immune responses. 相似文献

Membrane-targeting of signalling molecules by SH2/SH3 domain-containing adaptor proteins. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

SH2/SH3 domain-containing adaptor proteins play a critical role in regulating tyrosine kinase signalling pathways. The major function of these adaptors, such as Grb2, Nck, and Crk, is to recruit proline-rich effector molecules to tyrosine-phosphorylated kinases or their substrates. In recent years dozens of novel proteins have emerged that are capable of associating with the SH2 and the SH3 domains of adaptors. In this review, the author attempts to summarise these novel binding partners of Grb2, Nck, and Crk, and to discuss current controversies regarding function and regulation of protein multicomplexes held together by SH2/SH3 adaptor molecules at the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Dok-3 is a Dok-related adaptor expressed in B cells and macrophages. Previously, we reported that Dok-3 is an inhibitor of B-cell activation in A20 B cells and that it associates with SHIP-1, a 5' inositol-specific lipid phosphatase, as well as Csk, a negative regulator of Src kinases. Here, we demonstrate that Dok-3 suppresses B-cell activation by way of its interaction with SHIP-1, rather than Csk. Our biochemical analyses showed that the Dok-3-SHIP-1 complex acts by selectively inhibiting the B-cell receptor (BCR)-evoked activation of the Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) cascade without affecting overall protein tyrosine phosphorylation or activation of previously described SHIP-1 targets like Btk and Akt/PKB. Studies of B cells derived from SHIP-1-deficient mice showed that BCR-triggered activation of JNK is enhanced in the absence of SHIP-1, implying that the Dok-3-SHIP-1 complex (or a related mechanism) is a physiological negative regulator of the JNK cascade in normal B cells. Together, these data elucidate the mechanism by which Dok-3 inhibits B-cell activation. Furthermore, they provide evidence that SHIP-1 can be a negative regulator of JNK signaling in B cells. 相似文献

The Toll-like receptors represent a largely evolutionarily conserved pathogen recognition machinery responsible for recognition of bacterial, fungal, protozoan, and viral pathogen associated microbial patterns and initiation of inflammatory response. Structurally the Toll-like receptors are comprised of an extracellular leucine rich repeat domain and a cytoplasmic Toll/Interleukin 1 receptor domain. Recognition takes place in the extracellular domain where as the cytoplasmic domain triggers a complex signal network required to sustain appropriate immune response. Signal transduction is regulated by the recruitment of different intracellular adaptors. The Toll-like receptors can be grouped depending on the usage of the adaptor, MyD88, into MyD88-dependent and MyD88 independent subsets. Herein, we present a unique phylogenetic analysis of domain regions of these receptors and their cognate signaling adaptor molecules. Although previously unclear from the phylogeny of full length receptors, these analyses indicate a separate evolutionary origin for the MyD88-dependent and MyD88-independent signaling pathway and provide evidence of a common ancestor for the vertebrate and invertebrate orthologs of the adaptor molecule MyD88. Together these observations suggest a very ancient origin of the MyD88-dependent pathway Additionally we show that early duplications gave rise to several adaptor molecule families. In some cases there is also strong pattern of parallel duplication between adaptor molecules and their corresponding TLR. Our results further support the hypothesis that phylogeny of specific domains involved in signaling pathway can shed light on key processes that link innate to adaptive immune response. 相似文献

Receptor oligomerization is vital for activating intracellular signaling, in part by initiating events that recruit effector and adaptor proteins to sites of active signaling. Whether these distal molecules themselves oligomerize is not well appreciated. In this study, we examined the molecular interactions of the adaptor protein GRB2. In T cells, the SH2 domain of GRB2 binds phosphorylated tyrosines on the adaptor protein LAT and the GRB2 SH3 domains associate with the proline-rich regions of SOS1 and CBL. Using biochemical and biophysical techniques in conjunction with confocal microscopy, we observed that the simultaneous association of GRB2, via its SH2 and SH3 domains, with multivalent ligands led to the oligomerization of these ligands, which affected signaling. These data suggest that multipoint binding of distal adaptor proteins mediates the formation of oligomeric signaling clusters vital for intracellular signaling. 相似文献

The discovery that endosymbiotic Wolbachia bacteria play an important role in the pathophysiology of diseases caused by filarial nematodes, including lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis (river blindness) has transformed our approach to these disabling diseases. Because these parasites infect hundreds of millions of individuals worldwide, understanding host factors involved in the pathogenesis of filarial-induced diseases is paramount. However, the role of early innate responses to filarial and Wolbachia ligands in the development of filarial diseases has not been fully elucidated. To determine the role of TLRs, we used cell lines transfected with human TLRs and macrophages from TLR and adaptor molecule-deficient mice and evaluated macrophage recruitment in vivo. Extracts of Brugia malayi and Onchocerca volvulus, which contain Wolbachia, directly stimulated human embryonic kidney cells expressing TLR2, but not TLR3 or TLR4. Wolbachia containing filarial extracts stimulated cytokine production in macrophages from C57BL/6 and TLR4(-/-) mice, but not from TLR2(-/-) or TLR6(-/-) mice. Similarly, macrophages from mice deficient in adaptor molecules Toll/IL-1R domain-containing adaptor-inducing IFN-beta and Toll/IL-1R domain-containing adaptor-inducing IFN-beta-related adaptor molecule produced equivalent cytokines as wild-type cells, whereas responses were absent in macrophages from MyD88(-/-) and Toll/IL-1R domain-containing adaptor protein (TIRAP)/MyD88 adaptor-like (Mal) deficient mice. Isolated Wolbachia bacteria demonstrated similar TLR and adaptor molecule requirements. In vivo, macrophage migration to the cornea in response to filarial extracts containing Wolbachia was dependent on TLR2 but not TLR4. These results establish that the innate inflammatory pathways activated by endosymbiotic Wolbachia in B. malayi and O. volvulus filaria are dependent on TLR2-TLR6 interactions and are mediated by adaptor molecules MyD88 and TIRAP/Mal. 相似文献

Heterotetrameric adaptor complexes and SNAREs play key roles in the specificity of membrane budding and fusion. Here we test the hypothesis that vesicle budding and membrane fusion are coupled by the interaction of these molecules. We investigate the role of the di-leucine motif of vesicle-associated membrane protein 4 (VAMP4) in adaptor binding and localization of VAMP4. Mutation of the di-leucine motif inhibits AP-1 binding in vitro and affects the steady state distribution of VAMP4 in vivo. 相似文献

The novel adaptor protein Swiprosin-1 enhances BCR signals and contributes to BCR-induced apoptosis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

B-cell receptor (BCR) signals are essential for B-cell differentiation, homeostasis and negative selection, which are regulated by the strength and quality of BCR signals. Recently, we identified a new adaptor protein, Swiprosin-1, in lipid rafts of B-cell lines that undergo apoptosis after BCR stimulation. During murine B-cell development, Swiprosin-1 exhibited highest expression in immature B cells of the bone marrow, but was also expressed in resting and activated splenic B cells and in non-lymphoid tissue, especially in the brain. Ectopic expression of Swiprosin-1 in the immature murine B-cell line WEHI231 enhanced spontaneous and BCR-induced apoptosis. In contrast, short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated downregulation of Swiprosin-1 impaired specifically spontaneous and BCR-elicited apoptosis, but not BCR-induced G1 cell cycle arrest and upregulation of the cell cycle inhibitor p27(Kip1). In accordance, Swiprosin-1 abundance regulated net cell growth of WEHI231 cell populations through reciprocal regulation of Bcl-xL, but not Bim, thereby controlling spontaneous apoptosis. Swiprosin-1-enhanced apoptosis was blocked through nuclear factor kappaB-activating stimuli, namely B-cell-activating factor of the TNF family, anti-CD40 and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). This correlated with enhanced BCR-induced IkappaB-alpha phosphorylation and degradation in cells expressing a Swiprosin-1-specific shRNA. Finally, ectopic Swiprosin-1 expression enhanced BCR-induced cell death in primary, LPS-stimulated splenic B cells. Hence, Swiprosin-1 may regulate lifespan and BCR signaling thresholds in immature B cells. 相似文献

B-cells integrate antigen-specific signals transduced via the B-cell receptor (BCR) and antigen non-specific co-stimulatory signals provided by cytokines and CD40 ligation in order to produce IgG antibodies. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) also provide co-stimulation, but the requirement for TLRs to generate T-cell independent and T-cell dependent antigen specific antibody responses is debated. Little is known about the role of B-cell expressed TLRs in inducing antigen-specific antibodies to antigens that also activate TLR signaling. We found that mice lacking functional TLR4 or its adaptor molecule MyD88 harbored significantly less IgG3 natural antibodies to LPS, and required higher amounts of LPS to induce anti-LPS IgG3. In vitro, BCR and TLR4 signaling synergized, lowering the threshold for production of T-cell independent IgG3 and IL-10. Moreover, BCR and TLR4 directly associate through the transmembrane domain of TLR4. Thus, in vivo, BCR/TLR synergism could facilitate the induction of IgG3 antibodies against microbial antigens that engage both innate and adaptive B-cell receptors. Vaccines might exploit BCR/TLR synergism to rapidly induce antigen-specific antibodies before significant T-cell responses arise. 相似文献
