IMMUNOBIOLOGY

Thrombospondin-1 and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase are major targets of extracellular ATP in human dendritic cells

From the Institute of Interdisciplinary Research, Institut de Recherche Interdisciplinaire en Biologie Humaine et Moléculaire (IRIBHM), Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, Belgium; Institute for Medical Immunology, IMI, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Gosselies, Belgium; and Department of Medical Chemistry, Erasme Hospital, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, Belgium.

Extracellular adenosine triphosphate affects the maturation of human monocyte–derived dendritic cells (DCs), mainly by inhibiting T-helper 1 (Th1) cytokines, promoting Th2 cytokines, and modulating the expression of costimulatory molecules. In this study, we report that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) can induce immunosuppression through its action on DCs, defining a new role for extracellular nucleotides. Microarray analysis of ATP-stimulated human DCs revealed inter alia a drastic up-regulation of 2 genes encoding mediators involved in immunosuppression: thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO). The release of TSP-1 by DCs in response to ATP was confirmed at the protein level by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), immunodetection, and mass spectrometry analysis, and has an antiproliferative effect on T CD4+ lymphocytes through TSP-1/CD47 interaction. Our pharmacologic data support the involvement of purinergic receptor P2Y11 in this ATP-mediated TSP-1 secretion. We demonstrate also that ATP significantly potentiates the up-regulation of IDO—a negative regulator of T lymphocyte proliferation—and kynurenine production initiated by interferon-{gamma} (IFN-{gamma}) in human DCs.

Thus, extracellular ATP released from damaged cells and previously considered as a danger signal is also a potent regulator of mediators playing key roles in immune tolerance. Consequently, nucleotides' derivatives may be considered as useful tools for DC-based immunotherapies.
