Role of the MyD88 transduction signaling pathway in endothelial activation by antiphospholipid antibodies
Abstract
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the persistent presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs) and recurrent thrombosis or fetal loss. The thrombophilic state has been partially related to the induction of a proinflammatory and procoagulant endothelial cell (EC) phenotype induced by anti–β2-glycoprotein I (β2-GPI) antibodies that bind β2-GPI expressed on the EC surface. Anti–β2-GPI antibody binding has been shown to induce nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) translocation leading to a proinflammatory EC phenotype similar to that elicited by interaction with microbial products (lipopolysaccharide [LPS]) and proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin 1β [IL-1β], tumor necrosis factor α [TNF-α]). However, the upstream signaling events are not characterized yet. To investigate the endothelial signaling cascade activated by anti–β2-GPI antibodies, we transiently cotransfected immortalized human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) with dominant-negative constructs of different components of the pathway (ΔTRAF2, ΔTRAF6, ΔMyD88) together with reporter genes (NF-κB luciferase and pCMV-β-galactosidase). Results showed that both human anti–β2-GPI IgM monoclonal antibodies as well as polyclonal affinity-purified anti–β2-GPI IgG display a signaling cascade comparable to that activated by LPS or IL-1. ΔTRAF6 and ΔMyD88 significantly abrogate antibody-induced as well as IL-1– or LPS-induced NF-κB activation, whereas ΔTRAF2 (involved in NF-κB activation by TNF) does not affect it. Moreover, anti– β2-GPI antibodies and LPS followed the same time kinetic of IL-1 receptor–activated kinase (IRAK) phosphorylation, suggesting an involvement of the toll-like receptor (TLR) family. Our findings demonstrate that anti–β2-GPI antibodies react with their antigen likely associated to a member of the TLR/IL-1 receptor family on the EC surface and directly induce activation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
