CCR5, a chemokine receptor expressed on T cells and macrophages, is the principal coreceptor for M-tropic HIV-1 strains. Recently, we described an NH2-terminal modification of the CCR5 ligand regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), aminooxypentane-RANTES (AOP-RANTES), that showed potent inhibition of macrophage infection by HIV-1 under conditions where RANTES was barely effective. To investigate the mechanism of AOP-RANTES inhibition of HIV infectivity we examined the surface expression of CCR5 using a monoclonal anti-CCR5 antibody, MC-1. We demonstrate that AOP-RANTES rapidly caused >90% decrease in cell surface expression of CCR5 on lymphocytes, monocytes/ macrophages, and CCR5 transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. RANTES also caused a loss of cell surface CCR5, although its effect was less than with AOP-RANTES. Significantly, AOP-RANTES inhibited recycling of internalized CCR5 to the cell surface, whereas RANTES did not. When peripheral blood mononuclear cells are cultured for prolonged periods of time in the presence of RANTES, CCR5 expression is comparable to that seen on cells treated with control medium, whereas there is no CCR5 surface expression on cells cultured in the presence of AOP-RANTES. Immunofluorescence indicated that both AOP-RANTES and RANTES induced downmodulation of cell surface CCR5, and that the receptor was redistributed into endocytic organelles containing the transferrin receptor. When RANTES was removed, the internalized receptor was recycled to the cell surface; however, the receptor internalized in the presence of AOP-RANTES was retained in endosomes. Using human osteosarcoma (GHOST) 34/CCR5 cells, the potency of AOP-RANTES and RANTES to inhibit infection by the M-tropic HIV-1 strain, SF 162, correlated with the degree of downregulation of CCR5 induced by the two chemokines. These differences between AOP-RANTES and RANTES in their effect on receptor downregulation and recycling suggest a mechanism for the potent inhibition of HIV infection by AOP-RANTES. Moreover, these results support the notion that receptor internalization and inhibition of receptor recycling present new targets for therapeutic agents to prevent HIV infection.

Abstract The C-C chemokine receptors CCR5 and CCR3 are fusion coreceptors for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) entry into macrophages. The regulation of their expression influences infectivity by HIV. We report here that interferon-γ (IFN-γ) a cytokine that has bidirectional effects on HIV infection of macrophages, significantly upregulated CCR5 and CCR3 cell surface expression in human mononuclear phagocytes isolated from placental cord blood and adult peripheral blood. Monocytes treated with IFN-γ showed increased chemotaxis to the CCR5 ligands macrophage inflammatory protein-1 (MIP-1) and MIP-1β, confirming the functional relevance of IFN-γ–induced CCR5 expression. However, IFN-γ suppressed HIV entry into macrophages. Interestingly, we demonstrated that IFN-γ inhibited cell surface expression of CD4, the major receptor for HIV. This finding may explain the suppressive effect of IFN-γ on HIV entry into macrophages, despite its enhancing effect on the expression of CCR5 and CCR3 by these cells. In addition, IFN-γ–induced secretion of C-C chemokines (RANTES, MIP-1, and MIP-1β) by mononuclear phagocytes may also suppress HIV entry into macrophages. These data provide further evidence for cytokine-mediated regulation of CCR5 expression and are consistent with a novel paradigm in which cytokines regulate HIV infection and leukocyte migration by reciprocal and opposing effects on the expression of CD4 and chemokine receptors.

The LDL receptor (LDL-R) has been proposed as the viral receptor for Hepatitis C virus (HCV). This hypothesis has been based exclusively on in vitro studies. In human mononuclear cells, LDL-R gene expression has been demonstrated to be parallel and be coordinately regulated to gene expression in the human liver. The purpose of the current study was to determine the mononuclear cell surface expression of the LDL receptor in patients with HCV chronic infection according to viral load. Sixty-eight consecutive untreated chronic hepatitis C patients were studied to determine the mononuclear cell surface expression of the LDL-R. LDL-Rs were quantified at the surface of mononuclear cells in fresh blood samples taken after fasting using flow cytometry. LDL-R expression was significantly associated with LDL-cholesterol ( r = −0.25; P = 0.03) and HCV-viral load ( r = 0.37, P = 0.002). In multivariate analysis, the LDL-R expression was significantly associated with HCV viral load, whereas genotype, age, body mass index, and fibrosis were not. In conclusion, our data provided by a human study, suggest that the LDL-R may be one of the receptors implicated in HCV replication.

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) is used as a membrane anchor by many eukaryotic cell-surface proteins. The second step of GPI biosynthesis is de-N-acetylation of N-acetylglucosaminylphosphatidylinositol (GlcNAc-PI). We have previously cloned the rat PIG-L gene by expression cloning that complemented a mutant Chinese hamster ovary cell line defective in this step. Here we show that recombinant rat PIG-L protein purified from Escherichia coli as a complex with GroEL has GlcNAc-PI de-N-acetylase activity in vitro. The activity was not enhanced by GTP, which is known to enhance the de-N-acetylase activity of mammalian cell microsomes. As with other de-N-acetylases that act on the GlcNAc moiety, metal ions, in particular Mn2+ and Ni2+, enhanced the enzyme activity of PIG-L. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae YMR281W open reading frame encodes a protein (termed Gpi12p) with 24% amino acid identity with rat PIG-L. On transfection into mammalian PIG-L-deficient cells, this gene, GPI12, restored the cell-surface expression of GPI-anchored proteins and GlcNAc-PI de-N-acetylase activity. The disruption of the gene caused lethality in S. cerevisiae. These results indicate that GlcNAc-PI de-N-acetylase is conserved between mammals and yeasts and that the de-N-acetylation step is also indispensable in yeasts.

e22187 Background: One premise of antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) is that the bound mAb-antigen complex on the cell surface will internalize and be metabolized by lysosomal proteases to release the free drug. Thus, the efficacy of an ADC is dependent not only on the presence of cell surface antigens, but also intact delivery of the conjugated drug. In most cases, the biological mechanisms behind these processes have not been elucidated. Furthermore, the extracellular stability of the ADC may be affected by the activity of the target proteases in the tumor microenvironment outside of the lysozome. These concepts are especially important for CDx approaches, which would ideally account not only for the degree of cell surface expression of the target, but also receptor internalization and potential effects of tumor microenvironment. Although in vitro approaches exist to measure these attributes, there are no clinically amenable approaches to measure these critical parameters. Methods: Flagship Biosciences has invented several proprietary approaches for measuring critical properties of the therapeutic target on the cell surface or inside the cell, as well as properties of the TME which could be used to predict efficacy to an ADC using FFPE biopsies. These image analysis approaches have been designed specifically in context of ADC CDx programs to: 1) Accurately define cell surface target expression independent of cytoplasmic expression; 2) Assess critical factors in the TME which may affect delivery of the drug to the intracellular target; and 3) Multiplex these evaluations for an integrative answer to be derived from a typical clinical biopsy. Results: The measurement of cytoplasm/membrane localization was evaluated on several hundred tissue sections, and the methodology was found to be highly reproducible, with coefficients of variation lower than that observed by manual pathologist accessment. Conclusions: Our approach discretely measures endpoints of cell surface biomarker prevalence, biomarker membrane/cytoplasmic ratio, heterogeneity, stromal contribution, inflammatory environment, and other important cell-by-cell outputs from a single FFPE slide in the context of typical drug discovery.

AbstractHIV up-regulates cell-surface expression of specific ligands for the activating NKG2D receptor, including ULBP-1, -2, and -3, but not MICA or MICB, in infected cells both in vitro and in vivo. However, the viral factor(s) involved in NKG2D ligand expression still remains undefined. HIV-1 Vpr activates the DNA damage/stress-sensing ATR kinase and promotes G2 cell-cycle arrest, conditions known to up-regulate NKG2D ligands. We report here that HIV-1 selectively induces cell-surface expression of ULBP-2 in primary CD4+ T lymphocytes by a process that is Vpr dependent. Importantly, Vpr enhanced the susceptibility of HIV-1–infected cells to NK cell–mediated killing. Strikingly, Vpr alone was sufficient to up-regulate expression of all NKG2D ligands and thus promoted efficient NKG2D-dependent NK cell–mediated killing. Delivery of virion-associated Vpr via defective HIV-1 particles induced analogous biologic effects in noninfected target cells, suggesting that Vpr may act similarly beyond infected cells. All these activities relied on Vpr ability to activate the ATR-mediated DNA damage/stress checkpoint. Overall, these results indicate that Vpr is a key determinant responsible for HIV-1–induced up-regulation of NKG2D ligands and further suggest an immunomodulatory role for Vpr that may not only contribute to HIV-1–induced CD4+ T-lymphocyte depletion but may also take part in HIV-1–induced NK-cell dysfunction.

The synthesis and intracellular sorting of the interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor were studied with a line of mutant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells with a reversible defect in protein O glycosylation. Under normal culture conditions the mutant ldlD cannot add N-acetylgalactosamine (Ga1NAc) to proteins. Ga1NAc is the first sugar of mucin-type O-linked oligosaccharides attached to protein. This O-glycosylation defect is rapidly corrected when Ga1NAc is added to the culture mediu. An expression vector for the p55 human IL-2 receptor was transfected into wild-type CHO and ldlD cells and the structure, stability, and cell surface expression of the receptor were examined by immunoprecipitation and antibody-binding assays. Essentially all of the mature form of the normally glycosylated IL-2 receptor in both wild-type CHO cells and ldlD cells incubated with Ga1NAc was expressed on the cell surface. The stability of O-linked carbohydrate-deficient (Od) IL-2 receptors (in ldlD cells without Ga1NAc) was normal; however, missorting of the Od receptors resulted in very little cell surface expression. The sialidase sensitivity and endoglycosidase H resistance of mature Od IL-2 receptors suggest that Od receptor missorting occurred in or beyond the trans Golgi apparatus. The abnormal sorting of the Od IL-2 receptor is compared with the O-glycosylation dependence of the surface expression and stability of the low-density lipoprotein receptor, decay-accelerating factor, and the major antigen envelope protein of Epstein-Barr virus.

Glycosylation Sites

Site-directed mutagenesis has been used to remove 15 of the 18 potential N-linked glycosylation sites, in 16 combinations, from the human exon 11-minus receptor isoform. The three glycosylation sites not mutated were asparagine residues 25, 397 and 894, which are known to be important in receptor biosynthesis or function. The effects of these mutations on proreceptor processing into α and β subunits, cell-surface expression, insulin binding and receptor autophosphorylation were assessed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. The double mutants 16+78, 16+111, 16+215, 16+255, 337+418, the triple mutants 295+337+418, 295+418+514, 337+418+514 and 730+743+881 and the quadruple mutants 606+730+743+881 and 671+730+743+881 seemed normal by all criteria examined. The triple mutant 16+215+255 showed only low levels of correctly processed receptor on the cell surface, this processed receptor being autophosphorylated in response to insulin. The quadruple mutant 624+730+743+881 showed normal processing and ligand binding but exhibited a constitutively active tyrosine kinase as judged by autophosphorylation. Three higher-order mutants were constructed, two of which, 16+337+418+730+743+881 (∆6) and 16+295+337+418+730+743+881 (∆7a), seemed normal. The third construct, 16+337+418+514+730+743+881 (∆7b), was expressed at high levels on the cell surface, essentially as uncleaved proreceptor with only the small proportion of ∆7b that was correctly processed showing insulin-stimulated autophosphorylation. The mutations of ∆6 and ∆7a were incorporated into soluble ectodomains, which had affinities for insulin that were 4-fold that of wild-type ectodomain. The ∆6 ectodomain expressed in Lec8 cells was produced in quantity in a bioreactor for subsequent structural analysis.

ABSTRACT The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) accessory protein Vpu enhances virus particle release by counteracting a host factor that retains virions at the surfaces of infected cells. It was recently demonstrated that cellular protein BST-2/CD317/Tetherin restricts HIV-1 release in a Vpu-dependent manner. Calcium-modulating cyclophilin ligand (CAML) was also proposed to be involved in this process. We investigated whether CAML is involved in cell surface expression of Tetherin. Here, we show that CAML overexpression in permissive Cos-7 cells or CAML depletion in restrictive HeLa cells has no effect on HIV-1 release or on Tetherin surface expression, indicating that CAML is not required for Tetherin-mediated restriction of HIV-1 release.
