CD14-Mac-1 interactions inBacillus anthracisspore internalization by macrophages

Abstract: Anthrax, a potentially lethal disease of animals and humans, is caused by the Gram-positive spore-forming bacterium Bacillus anthracis. The outermost exosporium layer of B. anthracis spores contains an external hair-like nap formed by the glycoprotein BclA. Recognition of BclA by the integrin Mac-1 promotes spore uptake by professional phagocytes, resulting in the carriage of spores to sites of spore germination and bacterial growth in distant lymphoid organs. We show that CD14 binds to rhamnose residues of Bc… Show more

“…We show here that CD14-neutralizing antibody attenuates LPSinduced signal transduction in MLE12 cells. Recent studies demonstrated that, in addition to LBP, CD14 interacted with other proteins, such as surfactant A (32), C (2), and D (32), integrin-␤ 1 (22), and Mac-1 (27); however, the biological role of these interactions has not been well investigated. Here, we demonstrated that inhibition of LPA 1 attenuated LPS-induced signaling pathways of phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and I-kB; however, reduction of LPA levels by overexpression of LPP1 had no effects on LPS-induced signals, indicating that LPA 1 -mediated LPS signaling is independent on its LPA-LPA 1 signaling axis in cell culture conditions.…”

“…These inside-out signals can emanate from TLR2/CD14 engagement (20,22) and other receptors, such as CD44 (35). We used the mAb clone CBRM1/5 as a marker of the conformational change by the integrin to a highaffinity state (21,36). The incubation of RAW264.7 cells with 1 μM Mn 2+ induced the expected increased binding of CBRM1/5 (36) (Fig.…”

“…CD14 enhances CR3-mediated phagocytosis through its association with TLR2 (20)(21)(22) and involves PI3K activity (21). However, CHO cells lack a functional TLR2 (32), implying that the uptake of the spirochete by CHO-CR3/CD14 cells occurs without MyD88-mediated signaling.…”

“…For example, in B. anthracis, BclA-integrin interaction promotes spore uptake by macrophages in vitro (22). The exosporium contributes protection against macrophage-mediated damage (21), whereas enzymes in the exosporium (23) moderate responses to germinants.…”
