The ERK1/2 signaling pathway promotes myelin wrapping during development and remyelination, and sustained ERK1/2 activation in the oligodendrocyte (OL) lineage results in hypermyelination of the CNS. We therefore hypothesized that increased ERK1/2 signaling in the OL lineage would 1) protect against immune-mediated demyelination due to increased baseline myelin thickness and/or 2) promote enhanced remyelination and thus functional recovery after experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) induction. Cnp-Cre;Mek1DD-eGFP/+ mice that express a constitutively active form of MEK1 (the upstream activator of ERK1/2) in the OL lineage, exhibited a significant decrease in EAE clinical severity compared to controls. However, experiments using tamoxifen-inducible Plp-CreERT;Mek1DD-eGFP/+ or Pdgfrα-CreERT;Mek1DD-eGFP mice revealed this was not solely due to a protective or reparative effect resulting from MEK1DD expression specifically in the OL lineage. Because EAE is an immune-mediated disease, we examined Cnp-Cre;Mek1DD-eGFP/+ splenic immune cells for recombination. Surprisingly, GFP+ recombined CD19+ B-cells, CD11b+ monocytes, and CD3+ T-cells were noted when Cre expression was driven by the Cnp promoter. While ERK1/2 signaling in monocytes and T-cells is associated with proinflammatory activation, fewer studies have examined ERK1/2 signaling in B-cell populations. After in vitro stimulation, MEK1DD-expressing B-cells exhibited a 3-fold increase in CD138+ plasmablasts and a 5-fold increase in CD5+CD1dhi B-cells compared to controls. Stimulated MEK1DD-expressing B-cells also exhibited an upregulation of IL-10, known to suppress the initiation of EAE when produced by CD5+CD1dhi regulatory B-cells. Taken together, our data support the conclusion that sustained ERK1/2 activation in B-cells suppresses immune-mediated demyelination via increasing activation of regulatory B10 cells.

Cnp 启动子驱动的持续 ERK1/2 激活增加 B 细胞激活并抑制实验性自身免疫性脑脊髓炎



ERK1/2 信号通路在发育和髓鞘再生过程中促进髓鞘包裹,少突胶质细胞 (OL) 谱系中 ERK1/2 的持续激活会导致中枢神经系统髓鞘过度形成。因此,我们假设 OL 谱系中 ERK1/2 信号传导的增加将 1) 防止由于基线髓磷脂厚度增加而导致的免疫介导的脱髓鞘和/或 2) 促进髓鞘再生增强,从而在实验性​​自身免疫性脑脊髓炎 (EAE) 诱导后促进功能恢复。在 OL 谱系中表达 MEK1(ERK1/2 上游激活剂)组成型活性形式的Cnp-Cre;Mek1DD-eGFP/+小鼠,与对照组相比,EAE 临床严重程度显着降低。然而,使用他莫昔芬诱导的Plp-Cre ERT ;Mek1DD-eGFP/+Pdgfrα-Cre ERT ;Mek1DD-eGFP小鼠的实验表明,这不仅仅是由于 MEK1DD 在 OL 谱系中的表达所产生的保护或修复作用。由于 EAE 是一种免疫介导的疾病,我们检查了Cnp-CreMek1DD-eGFP/+脾免疫细胞用于重组。令人惊讶的是,当 Cnp 启动子驱动 Cre 表达时,注意到 GFP +重组 CD19 + B 细胞、CD11b +单核细胞和 CD3 + T 细胞。虽然单核细胞和 T 细胞中的 ERK1/2 信号传导与促炎症激活相关,但很少有研究检查 B 细胞群中的 ERK1/2 信号传导。体外刺激后,与对照组相比,表达 MEK1DD 的 B 细胞的 CD138 +浆母细胞增加了 3 倍,CD5 + CD1d hi B 细胞增加了 5 倍。 受刺激的表达 MEK1DD 的 B 细胞还表现出 IL-10 的上调,已知当 CD5 + CD1d hi调节 B 细胞产生时,IL-10 会抑制 EAE 的启动。综上所述,我们的数据支持这样的结论:B 细胞中持续的 ERK1/2 激活通过增加调节性 B10 细胞的激活来抑制免疫介导的脱髓鞘。
