A platelet-mediated system for shuttling blood-borne bacteria to CD8α+ dendritic cells depends on glycoprotein GPIb and complement C3

Abstract: The acquisition of pathogen-derived antigen by dendritic cells (DCs) is a key event in the generation of cytotoxic CD8(+) T cell responses. In mice, the intracellular bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is directed from the blood to splenic CD8α(+) DCs. We report that L. monocytogenes rapidly associated with platelets in the bloodstream in a manner dependent on GPIb and complement C3. Platelet association targeted a small but immunologically important portion of L. monocytogenes to splenic CD8α(+) DCs, diverting … Show more

“…Because complement is involved in phagocytosis and killing of C3-bound L. monocytogenes by activated macrophages (42) and is required for the efficient generation of CD8 + T cell responses (35), it is reasonable to hypothesize that C3 2/2 mice acquire greater bacterial loads after L. monocytogenes infections. Surprisingly, the bacterial load was significantly lower in the spleen of C3 2/2 mice than in WT mice postinfection because of reduced blood-borne bacterial shuttling to splenic CD8a + DCs (30). We speculated that bacterial loads might not correlate with the protective function of effector CD8 + T cells in the model of L. monocytogenes infection.…”

“…In contrast, optimal CD8 + T cell responses against visceral leishmaniasis depend on circulating complement activation by natural Abs (29). Moreover, C3 depletion by cobra venom factor (CVF) treatment or C3 deficiency lead to weak CD8 + T cell responses because fewer blood-borne bacteria are transferred to splenic CD8a + dendritic cells (DCs) postinfection (30). Therefore, it is important to determine the roles of systemic and local C3 production in the regulation of the CD8 + T cell response, because they may inform the design of more effective vaccines.…”

“…They can stimulate adaptive immunity by tagging bacteria and shuttling them to CD8a + dendritic cells in the spleen (Fig. 3) [71]. In response to bacterial infection, platelets, like myeloid cells, recognize DAMPs via pattern recognition receptors, for example, by binding of LPS to TLR4.…”

“…It is becoming increasingly clear that to achieve these infection-limiting effects, interactions extend well beyond the familiar collaboration between platelets, coagulation, and fibrinolysis in hemostasis. For instance, detailed in vivo and in vitro studies documented how collaboration between platelets and complement 4 or von Willebrand factor 5 helps target intravascular bacteria to phagocytes, that complement activates platelets and vice versa, 6 and that plasmin 2 and thrombin 3 can in principle activate complement.…”
