This study was aimed at obtaining insight into the diversity of sialic acids in cancer- and non-cancer-related CA125 antigen, tumour marker of serous ovarian cancer. Starting from available data suggesting the possible relevance of sialic acids for discriminating CA125 antigens of different origin, we have employed a new experimental approach based on the use of human sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectins, Siglecs, as tools for the investigation of sialylation. Siglec-2, belonging to the group of evolutionarily conserved Siglecs, and Siglec-3, -6, -7, -9 and -10, which are CD33-like Siglecs, were probed in solid-phase binding assays with cancer-related CA125 antigens from pleural fluid of patients with ovarian carcinoma (pfCA125), the OVCAR-3 ovarian carcinoma cell line (clCA125) and a non-cancer-related CA125 antigen, i.e. pregnancy-associated pCA125 antigen. All Siglecs used showed detectable binding to pCA125 antigen. Siglec-3, Siglec-7 and Siglec-2 exhibited moderately stronger binding to pCA125 antigen than the others. In contrast to this, Siglec-2 and Siglec-3 preferentially recognized pfCA125 with greater total binding than for pCA125, whereas Siglec-9 and Siglec-10 were highly selective for clCA125. Siglecs promise to be powerful tools for discriminating CA125 of different origin and could propagate further research on other molecular markers of biomedical and diagnostic importance. 相似文献

Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin-8 (Siglec-8) promotes the apoptosis of eosinophils and inhibits FcɛRI-dependent mediator release from mast cells. We investigated the genetic association between sequence variants in Siglec-8 and diagnosis of asthma, total levels of serum IgE (tIgE), and diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EE) in diverse populations. The effect of sequence variants on Siglec-8 glycan ligand-binding activity was also examined. Significant association with asthma was observed for SNP rs36498 (odds ratios (OR), 0.69, P=8.8 × 10−5) among African Americans and for SNP rs10409962 (Ser/Pro) in the Japanese population (OR, 0.69, P=0.019). Supporting this finding, we observed association between SNP rs36498 and current asthma among Brazilian families (P=0.013). Significant association with tIgE was observed for SNP rs6509541 among African Americans (P=0.016), and replicated among the Brazilian families (P=0.02). In contrast, no association was observed with EE in Caucasians. By using a synthetic polymer decorated with 6′-sulfo-sLex, a known Siglec-8 glycan ligand, we did not find any differences between the ligand-binding activity of HEK293 cells stably transfected with the rs10409962 risk allele or the WT allele. However, our association results suggest that the Siglec8 gene may be a susceptibility locus for asthma. 相似文献

Human CD33 is a myeloid-restricted transmembrane protein of the sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin (Siglec) family. While structural analysis predicts an inhibitory function, it remains unknown under which circumstances CD33 may operate as an inhibitory molecule. Here we show that treatment of human monocytes with anti-CD33 mAb induces the production of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1 beta, TNF-alpha, and IL-8. However, decreased CD33 surface expression obtained by RNA interference using cognate small interfering RNA (siRNA) was specifically paralleled by spontaneous cytokine production. Similarly, sialic acid (CD33 ligand) removal from the monocyte surface by neuraminidase resulted in IL-1 beta up-regulation, while the addition of red blood cells or sialyllactosamine (but not lactosamine) reversed the effect of neuraminidase treatment, thus demonstrating the importance of ligand recognition by CD33 for repression of monocyte activation. Finally, inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) dramatically enhanced the IL-1 beta response to anti-CD33 and neuraminidase, while inhibition of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) abolished it. Simultaneous addition of both inhibitors resulted in low levels of IL-1 beta, suggesting that CD33 exerts an inhibitory role mediated by PI3K, while p38 MAPK signaling is required for IL-1 beta production. These data indicate that by controlling monocyte activation, CD33 is a key molecule in the inflammatory response, depending on the sialic acid microenvironment for its repressor activity. 相似文献

The recruitment of eosinophils from the circulation into the airway is a prominent feature of allergic asthma. Persistent inflammatory responses may arise from inefficient mechanisms for resolution of inflammation, including delayed apoptosis. Several studies suggest that eosinophil apoptosis is delayed in asthma. Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins are characterized by their sequence similarities and abilities to bind sialic acids in glycoproteins and glycolipids. Siglec-8 is uniquely expressed on eosinophils, mast cells, and basophils. Engagement of Siglec-8 on blood eosinophils results in caspase- and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis. Eosinophil apoptosis is an important therapeutic target for the development of novel anti-asthma treatments that specifically target the eosinophil. 相似文献

Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec)-5 or CD170 is a CD33-related receptor, containing cytoplasmic immune receptor-based tyrosine signalling motifs, that has previously been reported to be myeloid-specific like CD33 and thus may be useful in the characterization of both normal and malignant haemopoiesis. This study showed that Siglec-5 had a distinct expression pattern to CD33 both on normal myeloid cells and in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). In normal bone marrow and cord blood, myeloid cells predominantly expressed Siglec-5 at the later stages of granulocytic differentiation. Siglec-5 was not expressed at significant levels by CD34+ progenitors either from bone marrow or mobilized peripheral blood. During in vitro myeloid differentiation of cord blood purified CD34+ cells, Siglec-5 was upregulated later than CD33. Siglec-5 expression remained absent or very low on cultured CD34+ cells, unlike CD33, which was present on almost all CD34+ cells by day 4. However, analysis of blasts from 23 patients with AML revealed aberrant expression of Siglec-5 with CD34 in 50% (seven of 14) of patients with CD34+ AML; 61% (14 of 23) of AML cases were positive for Siglec-5 with an increased frequency in the French-American-British subtypes M3-5 (80%) compared with M0-2 (25%). All 13 acute lymphoblastic leukaemic (ALL) samples tested, including a CD33+ ALL, were Siglec-5 negative. These results support the further evaluation of Siglec-5 antibodies in the diagnosis and monitoring of AML. 相似文献

Siglec15 is a recently characterized immunosuppressive transmembrane protein, which expresses in various types of solid tumors and promotes cancer development. Several studies reported that Siglec15 is a prognostic biomarker of cancer patients, and targeting Siglec15 may be a promising strategy for cancer therapy. However, the regulation of Siglec15 function remains unclear. Here we show that the immunosuppression activity of Siglec15 is largely modulated by N-glycosylation. Through mass spectrum and site mutation analysis, we identified that Siglec15 was extensively glycosylated at N172 (N173 for mouse) in cancer cells. Meanwhile, Siglec15 N172Q had a similar molecular weight with PNGase-F-treated Siglec15, suggesting N172 as the only one glycosylation residue. In xenograft model, glycosylation deficiency of Siglec15 reduced tumor growth in C57BL/6 mice, but had no impact in nude mice, indicating the requirement of N-glycosylation for immunosuppressive function of Siglec15. Furthermore, colorectal cancer patients with high Siglec15 expression had a poor response to neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy and short survival time. Interestingly, removal of N-glycosylation enhances the detection of Siglec15, which may be employed in the prediction of immunotherapy response. Together, our results disclose a pivotal role of glycosylated Siglec15 in tumor immune escape, which may be a therapeutic target for cancer immunotherapy. 相似文献

In all animals innate immunity is the first line of immune defense from invading pathogens. The prototypical innate cellular responses such as phagocytosis, degranulation, and cellular cytotoxicity are elicited by leukocytes in a diverse range of animals including fish, amphibians, birds and mammals reinforcing the importance of such primordial defense mechanisms. In mammals, these responses are intricately controlled and coordinated at the cellular level by distinct subsets of immunoregulatory receptors. Many of these surface proteins belong to the immunoglobulin superfamily and in mammals elaborate immunoregulatory receptor networks play a major role in the control of infectious diseases. Recent examination of teleost immunity has begun to further illustrate the complexities of these receptor networks in lower vertebrates. However, little is known about the mechanisms that control how immunoregulatory receptors influence cellular decision making in ectothermic vertebrates. This review focuses on several families of recently discovered immunoglobulin superfamily members in fish that share structural, phylogenetic and in some cases functional relationships with mammalian immunoregulatory receptors. Further characterization of these teleost innate immune receptor families will provide detailed information regarding the conservation and importance of innate immune defense strategies throughout vertebrate evolution. 相似文献
