A20 expression in dendritic cells protects mice from LPS-induced mortality.

DCs contribute to immune homeostasis under physiological conditions and regulate the immune activation during infection. The deubiquitinase A20 inhibits the activation of NF-κB-dependent immune reactions, and prevents the hyperactivation of DCs under steady-state conditions. However, the role of DC-specific A20 under pathological conditions is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that upon injection of low-dose LPS, mice with DC-specific A20 deletion (CD11c-Cre A20(fl/fl) ) died within 6 h, whereas A20(fl/fl) controls survived. LPS-induced mortality in CD11c-Cre A20(fl/fl) mice was characterized by increased serum levels of IL-2, IL-10, IL-12, IFN-γ, and TNF. Upon LPS stimulation, the activation of NF-κB and ERK-NFATc3 pathways were enhanced in A20-deficient DCs, resulting in an increased production of IL-2, IL-12, and TNF both in vitro and in vivo. Targeted inhibition of ERK in A20-deficient DCs abolished the increased production of IL-2. A20-deficient DCs failed to induce LPS tolerance, which was independent of T cells and the intestinal flora, since T-cell depletion and decolonization of CD11c-Cre A20(fl/fl) mice could not prevent death of LPS-challenged CD11c-Cre A20(fl/fl) mice. In conclusion, these findings show that DC-specific A20 preserves immune homeostasis in steady-state conditions and is also required for LPS tolerance.


Peptide microarray-based analysis of antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 identifies unique epitopes with potential for diagnostic test development.

  • Pavlo Holenya‎ et al.
  • European journal of immunology‎
  • 2021‎

Humoral immunity to the Severe Adult Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) Coronavirus (CoV)-2 is not fully understood yet but is a crucial factor of immune protection. The possibility of antibody cross-reactivity between SARS-CoV-2 and other human coronaviruses (HCoVs) would have important implications for immune protection but also for the development of specific diagnostic ELISA tests. Using peptide microarrays, n = 24 patient samples and n = 12 control samples were screened for antibodies against the entire SARS-CoV-2 proteome as well as the Spike (S), Nucleocapsid (N), VME1 (V), R1ab, and Protein 3a (AP3A) of the HCoV strains SARS, MERS, OC43, and 229E. While widespread cross-reactivity was revealed across several immunodominant regions of S and N, IgG binding to several SARS-CoV-2-derived peptides provided statistically significant discrimination between COVID-19 patients and controls. Selected target peptides may serve as capture antigens for future, highly COVID-19-specific diagnostic antibody tests.
