Massive inflammatory syndrome and lymphocytic immunodeficiency in KARAP/DAP12-transgenic mice

Abstract: KARAP/DAP12 is a broadly distributed transmembrane signaling polypeptide with an immunoreceptor tyrosine‐based activation motif, and is non‐covalently associated with a variety of activating surface receptors. We report here the characterization of transgenic mice that overexpress KARAP/DAP12 polypeptides in both myeloid and lymphoid compartments. KARAP/DAP12‐transgenic mice present, in a transgene dose‐dependent manner, a complex phenotype characterized by two independent and spontaneous hematological abnorma… Show more

“…DAP12 gain-of-function Tg female mice, which express multiple integrated transgene copies of human DAP12 cDNA under the control of an MHC class I promoter/Ig enhancer expression cassette, have been described [25]. Loss-of-function DAP12 homozygous knockin mice were also as described [19].…”

“…Tg mice that overexpress DAP12 in both myeloid and lymphoid compartments are characterized by severe lymphopenia and massive inflammatory syndrome associated with neutrophilia and lung infiltration by multinucleated macrophages [25]. These myeloid abnormalities suggest that DAP12-driven signals are critically involved in inflammation, representing an essential target to control the resolution of inflammatory disorders based on monocytes/macrophages and neutrophils.…”

“…Secretion of soluble TREM-1 has been reported in LPS-stimulated human monocytes as well as during mouse bacterial infection, suggesting endogen- ous regulation of inflammatory processes [39]. Mice transgenic for human KARAP/DAP12 present a hyperresponsiveness to LPS-induced experimental septic shock [40]. Altogether, these data indicate that KARAP/DAP12-dependent signals amplify TLR-dependent inflammatory reactions.…”

“…In addition, the biological functions of proinflammatory macrophages are redirected to alternate functions including humoral immunity and wound healing [10]. Although regulation is predominantly under control of cytokines [11], regulation by myeloid cells is important in "fine tuning" [12,13], and altered integration of the composite of activating/inhibitory signaling through such receptors is thought to contribute to many autoimmune processes [14][15][16].…”
