Abstract Background Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by B-cell hyper-reactivity and the production of pathogenic anti-nuclear-directed auto-antibodies (Abs). B-cell ontogeny is partly dependent on the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis for which the contribution to SLE pathogenesis remains unclear. CXCR7, the novel receptor for CXCL12, is differentially expressed among memory B-cell subsets. However, its biological role in SLE remains to be explored. Methods Relative CXCR4 and CXCR7 expression levels were compared by quantitative PCR in leukocytes from blood samples of 41 Mexican Mestizos patients with SLE and 45 ethnicity-matched healthy subjects. Intracellular and membrane expression of both receptors was analyzed by flow cytometry in naive and Ab-secreting B cells. B-cell responsiveness to CXCL12 was investigated using Transwell-based chemotaxis assays. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test for comparisons of values amongst healthy controls and patients with inactive or active SLE, and non-parametrically using the Mann–Whitney U-test for multiple comparisons and unpaired samples. Correlations were determined by Spearman’s ranking. Result SLE leukocytes displayed reduced levels of CXCR4 and CXCR7 transcripts. In SLE patients, a significant defect in CXCR4 expression was detected at the surface of naive and Ab-secreting B cells, associated with an abnormal intracellular localization of the receptor. CXCR7 predominantly localized in cytosolic compartments of B cells from healthy and SLE individuals. Disease activity did not impact on these expression patterns. Altered receptor compartmentalization correlated with an impaired CXCL12-promoted migration of SLE B cells. Conclusions Our data highlight a down-regulation of CXCL12 receptors on circulating B cells from SLE patients that likely influences their migratory behavior and distribution.

GRAFT versus host disease ,HEMATOPOIETIC stem cell transplantation ,T cells - Abstract
Mechanisms driving acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) onset in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) are still poorly understood. To provide a detailed characterization of tissue-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TL) and search for eventual site-specific specificities, we developed a xenogeneic model of aGVHD in immunodeficient mice. Phenotypic characterization of xenoreactive T lymphocytes (TL) in diseased mice disclosed a massive infiltration of GVHD target organs by an original CD4
+ CD8+ TL subset. Immunophenotypic and transcriptional profiling shows that CD4+ CD8+ TL comprise a major PD1+ CD62L−/+ transitional memory subset (>60%) characterized by low level expression of cytotoxicity-related transcripts. CD4+ CD8+ TL produce high IL-10 and IL-13 levels, and low IL-2 and IFN-γ, suggestive of regulatory function. In vivo tracking of genetically labeled CD4+ or CD8+ TL subsequently found that CD4+ CD8+ TL mainly originate from chronically activated cytotoxic TL (CTL). On the other hand, phenotypic profiling of CD3+ TL from blood, duodenum or rectal mucosa in a cohort of allo-HSCT patients failed to disclose abnormal expansion of CD4+ CD8+ TL independent of aGVHD development. Collectively, our results show that acquisition of surface CD4 by xenoreactive CD8+ CTL is associated with functional diversion toward a regulatory phenotype, but rule out a central role of this subset in the pathogenesis of aGVHD in allo-HSCT patients.

The WHIM Syndrome (WS) is a rare combined immuno-hematological disorder caused by inherited heterozygous autosomal dominant mutations in CXCR4, which result in most cases in the distal truncation of the receptor’s Carboxyl-terminal tail (C-Tail). Mutants of CXCR4 associated with WS display impaired desensitization and internalization of the receptor upon CXCL12 exposure, leading to enhanced migratory response. Because CXCR4 is expressed on leukocytes, we hypothesized that circulating pan-leukopenia could arise from altered CXCR4-mediated signalling that would skew tissue distribution and differentiation of leukocytes. This assumption was obviously difficult to address in patients. By generating a knock-in mouse strain (Cxcr4+/1013) that harbors a WS-linked gain-of-Cxcr4-function mutation, we establish that the C-tail domain in Cxcr4-mediated signalling is a pivotal regulator of lymphocyte development, peripheral trafficking and humoral immunity. The essential findings of our work, obtained by combining biochemical, bone marrow (BM)-mixed chimeras, in vivo labelling, adoptive co-transfers and functional approaches, are: 1) the C-tail truncating Cxcr41013 mutation caused differential signalling capacities depending on its heterozygous versus homozygous status and inhibited double-negative (DN) 2-to-DN3 and pro-B-to-pre-B developmental transitions during lymphopoiesis. In contrast, it had no effect on NK lymphopoiesis and granulopoiesis; 2) the resulting circulating B and T lymphopenia was due to hematopoietic cell-intrinsic defects and followed a mutated allele dose-dependent pattern; 3) impaired Cxcr41013 desensitization prevented the release of immature BM NK and B cells and mature lymph node (LN) B and T lymphocytes into the blood. Conversely, it forced homing and retention of mature recirculating B and T cells in the BM parenchyma; and 4) despite the absence of primary B-cell follicles in LNs, mutant mice produced efficient humoral responses upon immunization as illustrated by increased antigen-specific germinal center B cells and isotype-switched plasma cells. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that fine-tuning of Cxcr4 signal strength is required for optimal trafficking, egress and fitness of lymphocytes.; Le syndrome WHIM (SW) est un déficit immuno-hématologique rare causé principalement par des mutations autosomales dominantes du gène CXCR4 qui entrainent une troncation du domaine C-terminal (C-Ter) du récepteur. Les formes mutantes de CXCR4 associées au SW génèrent des altérations de la désensibilisation et de l’internalisation du récepteur en réponse à CXCL12, qui se traduisent par une hypersensibilité à l’action chimiotactique du ligand. CXCR4 est un récepteur de chimiokine exprimé sur les leucocytes dont le rôle dans l’hématopoïèse et le trafic leucocytaire à l’état basal suggère que la lympho-neutropénie des patients atteints du SW est due à des défauts de production et/ou de domiciliation périphérique des leucocytes causés par le gain de fonction de CXCR4. Néanmoins, la validation de cette hypothèse est difficile chez les patients. En générant une souche de souris (Cxcr4+/1013), porteuse d’une mutation rapportée chez une famille de patients par une stratégie de knock-in, nous avons mis en évidence le rôle du domaine C-Ter de Cxcr4 dans le développement, la domiciliation périphérique des lymphocytes et l’immunité adaptative à médiation humorale.Les principaux résultats issus de notre travail, obtenus en combinant des approches biochimiques, fonctionnelles, de reconstitution de l’hématopoïèse par compétition, de transferts adoptifs et d’injection d’anticorps anti-CD45 in vivo, sont : 1) La mutation Cxcr41013 tronquant le domaine C-Ter se comporte différemment en terme de signalisation, selon qu’elle soit présente à l’état hétérozygote ou homozygote, et perturbe respectivement les transitions double-négatif (DN) 2-DN3 et proB-preB de la lymphopoïèse dans le thymus et la moelle osseuse (MO). Au contraire, elle ne génère pas d’effets sur le développement des cellules NK et la myélopoïèse ; 2) La lymphopénie qui touche les lymphocytes B (LB) et T (LT) est un processus intrinsèque aux cellules porteuses de la mutation Cxcr41013 et suit un modèle allèle-dose-dépendant ; 3) Le défaut de désensibilisation de Cxcr41013 empêche le relargage des lymphocytes NK et B immatures de la MO et celui des LB et LT matures des ganglions lymphatiques dans le sang. A l’inverse, le gain de fonction exacerbe la migration des LB recirculants et LT matures et leur rétention dans le parenchyme médullaire ; et 4) malgré l’absence de follicules primaires dans les ganglions lymphatiques, les souris mutantes sont capables de mettre en place une réponse immunitaire humorale efficace et spécifique d’un antigène T-dépendant, comme en témoigne l’augmentation des LB du centre germinatif et des plasmocytes ayant effectué une commutation isotypique. En conclusion, nous démontrons que la signalisation fine médiée par Cxcr4 est nécessaire pour le développement, la compartimentalisation périphérique et la fonction des lymphocytes.

International audience; Patrolling Ly6C(-) monocytes are blood-circulating cells that play a role in inflammation and in the defense against pathogens. Here, we show that similar to natural killer (NK) cells, patrolling monocytes express high levels of S1PR5, a G-coupled receptor for sphingosine-1 phosphate. We found that S1pr5(-/-) mice lack peripheral Ly6C(-) monocytes but have a normal number of these cells in the bone marrow (BM). Various lines of evidence exclude a direct contribution of S1PR5 in the survival of Ly6C(-) monocytes at the periphery. Rather, our data support a role for S1PR5 in the egress of Ly6C(-) monocytes from the BM. In particular, we observed a reduced frequency of patrolling monocytes in BM sinusoids of S1PR5 KO mice. Unexpectedly, S1P was not a chemoattractant for patrolling monocytes and had no significant effect on their viability in vitro. Moreover, the disruption of S1P gradients in vivo did not alter Ly6C(-) monocyte trafficking and viability. These data suggest that S1PR5 regulates the trafficking of monocytes via a mechanism independent of S1P gradients.

- Abstract
Background: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by B-cell hyperreactivity and the production of pathogenic anti-nuclear- directed auto-antibodies (Abs). B-cell ontogeny is partly dependent on the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis for which the contribution to SLE pathogenesis remains unclear. CXCR7, the novel receptor for CXCL12, is differentially expressed among memory B-cell subsets. However, its biological role in SLE remains to be explored. Methods: Relative CXCR4 and CXCR7 expression levels were compared by quantitative PCR in leukocytes from blood samples of 41 Mexican Mestizos patients with SLE and 45 ethnicity-matched healthy subjects. Intracellular and membrane expression of both receptors was analyzed by flow cytometry in naive and Ab-secreting B cells. B-cell responsiveness to CXCL12 was investigated using Transwell-based chemotaxis assays. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test for comparisons of values amongst healthy controls and patients with inactive or active SLE, and non-parametrically using the Mann–Whitney U-test for multiple comparisons and unpaired samples. Correlations were determined by Spearman’s ranking. Result: SLE leukocytes displayed reduced levels of CXCR4 and CXCR7 transcripts. In SLE patients, a significant defect in CXCR4 expression was detected at the surface of naive and Ab-secreting B cells, associated with an abnormal intracellular localization of the receptor. CXCR7 predominantly localized in cytosolic compartments of B cells from healthy and SLE individuals. Disease activity did not impact on these expression patterns. Altered receptor compartmentalization correlated with an impaired CXCL12-promoted migration of SLE B cells. Conclusions: Our data highlight a down- regulation of CXCL12 receptors on circulating B cells from SLE patients that likely influences their migratory behavior and distribution.

These data suggest that S1PR5 regulates the trafficking of monocytes via a mechanism independent of S1P gradients., (© 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.)

- Abstract
Currently, more than 200 primary immunodeficiency diseases have been discovered. In most cases, genetic defects affect the expression or the function of proteins involved in immune development and homeostasis. Some orphan immuno-hematological disorders are characterized by an abnormal leukocyte trafficking, a notion predictive of an anomaly of the chemokine/chemokine receptor system. In this review, we focus on recent advances in the characterization of dysfunctions of the CXCL12 (SDF-1)/CXCR4 signaling axis in two rare human immunodeficiencies, one associated with a loss of CXCR4 function, the Idiopathic CD4(+) T-cell Lymphocytopenia, and the other with a gain of CXCR4 function, the WHIM syndrome.

- Abstract
Chemokines are small cytokine-like secreted proteins that govern migration of leukocytes to their specific niches in lymphoid organs and to inflammatory sites. They mediate their functions by binding to and activating chemokine receptors, which belong to the heptahelical G protein-coupled receptor family. The CXC chemokine Stromal cell Derived Factor-1 (SDF-1/CXCL12) is the sole natural ligand for the broadly expressed CXCR4 receptor and acts as a chemoattractant for many leukocyte subsets. The CXCL12/CXCR4 axis exerts critical activities in homeostatic processes such as organogenesis, hematopoiesis and leukocyte trafficking. Dysregulations of CXCR4 signaling and/or expression are associated with several infectious, inflammatory, autoimmune and malignant conditions. In light of recent data, we review here CXCR4 dysfunctions unveiled in two rare human immunodeficiency disorders, one characterized by a gain of CXCR4 function, the WHIM syndrome, and the other by a loss of CXCR4 function, the idiopathic CD4(+) T-cell lymphocytopenia., (© Société de Biologie, 2011.)
