The ability of regulatory T (Treg) cells to migrate into inflammatory sites is reduced in autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The reasons for impaired Treg cell migration remain largely unknown. We performed multiplex human kinase activity arrays to explore possible differences in the post-translational phosphorylation status of kinase related proteins that could account for altered Treg cell migration in RA. Results were verified by migration assays and Western blot analysis of CD4+ T cells from RA patients and from mice with collagen type II induced arthritis. Kinome profiling of CD4+ T cells from RA patients revealed significantly altered post-translational phosphorylation of kinase related proteins, including G-protein-signaling modulator 2 (GPSM2), protein tyrosine kinase 6 (PTK6) and vitronectin precursor (VTNC). These proteins have not been associated with RA until now. We found that GPSM2 expression is reduced in CD4+ T cells from RA patients and is significantly downregulated in experimental autoimmune arthritis following immunization of mice with collagen type II. Interestingly, GPSM2 acts as a promoter of Treg cell migration in healthy individuals. Treatment of RA patients with interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) blocking antibodies restores GPSM2 expression, thereby improving Treg cell migration. Our study highlights the potential of multiplex kinase activity arrays as a tool for the identification of RA-related proteins which could serve as targets for novel treatments.

激酶活性分析揭示 G 蛋白信号调节剂 2 缺乏对类风湿性关节炎调节性 T 细胞迁移受损的贡献

在包括类风湿性关节炎 (RA) 在内的自身免疫性疾病中,调节性 T (T reg ) 细胞迁移到炎症部位的能力降低。T reg细胞迁移受损的原因仍然很大程度上未知。我们进行了多重人类激酶活性阵列,以探索激酶相关蛋白的翻译后磷酸化状态的可能差异,这可能导致 RA 中 T reg细胞迁移的改变。结果通过对来自 RA 患者和患有 II 型胶原诱导关节炎的小鼠的 CD4 + T 细胞的迁移测定和蛋白质印迹分析进行了验证。CD4 +的激酶组分析来自 RA 患者的 T 细胞显示激酶相关蛋白的翻译后磷酸化显着改变,包括 G 蛋白信号调节剂 2 (GPSM2)、蛋白酪氨酸激酶 6 (PTK6) 和玻连蛋白前体 (VTNC)。直到现在,这些蛋白质还没有与 RA 相关联。我们发现 RA 患者的 CD4 + T 细胞中 GPSM2 表达降低,并且在用 II 型胶原免疫小鼠后在实验性自身免疫性关节炎中显着下调。有趣的是,GPSM2 在健康个体中充当 T reg细胞迁移的促进剂。用白细胞介素 6 受体 (IL-6R) 阻断抗体治疗 RA 患者可恢复 GPSM2 表达,从而改善 T reg细胞迁移。我们的研究强调了多重激酶活性阵列作为识别 RA 相关蛋白的工具的潜力,这些蛋白可以作为新治疗的靶点。
