Local triggering of the ICOS coreceptor by CD11c(+) myeloid cells drives organ inflammation in lupus

Abstract

The inducible T cell costimulator (ICOS) is a potent promoter of organ inflammation in murine lupus. ICOS stimulates T follicular helper cell differentiation in lymphoid tissue, suggesting that it might drive autoimmunity by enhancing autoantibody production. Yet the pathogenic relevance of this mechanism remains unclear. It is also unknown whether other ICOS-induced processes might contribute to lupus pathology. Here we show that selective ablation of ICOS ligand (ICOSL) in CD11c(+) cells, but not in B cells, dramatically ameliorates kidney and lung inflammation in lupus-prone MRL.Fas(lpr) mice. Autoantibody formation was largely unaffected by ICOSL deficiency in CD11c(+) cells. However, ICOSL display by CD11c(+) cells in inflamed organs had a nonredundant role in protecting invading T cells from apoptosis by elevating activity of the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, thereby facilitating T cell accrual. These findings reveal a mechanism that locally sustains organ inflammation in lupus.

AKT Pathway

This feed focuses on the AKT serine/threonine kinase, which is an important signaling pathway involved in processes such as glucose metabolism and cell survival.

Aphasia

Aphasia affects the ability to process language, including formulation and comprehension of language and speech, as well as the ability to read or write. Here is the latest research on aphasia.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
