Antimicrobial Histones and DNA Traps in Invertebrate Immunity

Abstract: Background: How antimicrobial histones participate in invertebrate defense was still unclear. Results: Upon injury or infection, oyster immune cells release antimicrobial histones and extracellular DNA traps in a ROSdependent manner. Conclusion: DNA traps are involved in the defense of Lophotrochozoa. Their mechanistic bases are shared with vertebrates. Significance: This is a novel mechanism in the evolutionary conserved invertebrate immune arsenal.

“…ETs have now been described in deuterostomes [81] and protostomes, including species of Ecdysozoa (insects [82], crustaceans [83]) and Lophotrochozoa (molluscs [84]). This process is triggered by infection and/or tissue damage.…”

“…This process is triggered by infection and/or tissue damage. ROS production is a signal that triggers ET formation in mammals [85] and lophotrochozoans [84]. In shrimp, haemocytes also release ETs in response to ROS inducers [83].…”

“…2009) and ETosis (Robb et al 2014). The production of ROS in STX-treated hemocytes was therefore measured over the course of 2 h and compared to ROS production in hemocytes exposed to zymosan, a reagent that induces a strong oxidative burst in oyster hemocytes (Poirier et al 2014). In contrast to zymosan, STX did not promote formation of detectable levels of ROS in hemocytes over a 2 h period, suggesting that the STXinduced death of C. gigas hemocytes is not triggered by ROS (Fig.…”

“…Thus, apoptosis plays an important role in mollusc immunity (Sokolova 2009) and, more generally, in invertebrate immunity (Sokolova 2009;Terahara and Takahashi 2008;Hughes et al 2010;Zhang et al 2011). Hemocytes from bivalve molluscs also respond to infection and damage through additional cell death processes such as ETosis, which leads to the extracellular release of antimicrobial DNA traps (Poirier et al 2014;Robb et al 2014).…”
