Neutrophil extracellular traps exacerbate Th1-mediated autoimmune responses in rheumatoid arthritis by promoting DC maturation #MMPMID27585946
Eur J Immunol 2016[Nov]; 46 (11): 2542-54 PMID27585946show ga
Aberrant formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) is a key feature in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and plays a pivotal role in disease pathogenesis. However, the mechanism through which NETs shape the autoimmune response in RA remains elusive. In this study, we demonstrate that inhibition of peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) activity in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse model significantly reduces NET formation, attenuates clinical disease activity and prevents joint destruction. Importantly, PAD4 blocking markedly reduces the frequency of collagen-specific IFN-? producing T helper 1 (Th1) cells in the draining lymph nodes (dLNs) of immunized mice. Exposure of dendritic cells (DCs) to CIA-derived NETs induces DC maturation characterized by significant upregulation of costimulatory molecules, as well as elevated secretion of IL-6. Moreover, CIA-NET-treated DCs promote the induction of antigen-specific Th1 cells in vitro. Finally, NETs from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients showed an increased potential to induce the maturation of DCs from healthy individuals, corroborating the findings obtained in CIA mouse model. Collectively, our findings delineate an important role of NETs in the induction and expansion of Th1 pathogenic cells in CIA through maturation of DCs and reveal a novel role of NETs in shaping the RA-autoimmune response that could be exploited therapeutically.
