Programmed death-1 receptor (PD-1) expressed in many immune cells is known to trigger T-cell exhaustion but the significance of macrophage-associated PD-1 in relevance to macrophage apoptosis is not known. This study is aimed to delineate whether PD-1 pathway has any role in eliciting macrophage apoptosis and, if so, then how the intra-macrophage parasite, Leishmania donovani modulates PD-1 pathway for protecting its niche. Resting macrophages when treated with H2O2 showed increased PD-1 expression and apoptosis, which was further enhanced on PD-1 agonist treatment. The administration of either PD-1 receptor or PD-1 ligand-blocking antibodies reversed the process thus documenting the involvement of PD-1 in macrophage apoptosis. On the contrary, L. donovani-infected macrophages showed decreased PD-1 expression concurrent with inhibition of apoptosis. The activation of PD-1 pathway was found to negatively regulate the phosphorylation of pro-survival AKT, which was reversed during infection. Infection-induced PD-1 downregulation led to the activation of AKT resulting in phosphorylation and subsequent inhibition of proapoptotic protein BAD. Strong association of SHP2 (a SH2-containing ubiquitously expressed tyrosine-specific protein phosphatase) with PD-1 along with AKT deactivation observed in H2O2-treated macrophages was reversed by L. donovani infection. Kinetic analysis coupled with inhibitor-based approach and knockdown experiments demonstrated that L. donovani infection actively downregulated the PD-1 by deactivating NFATc1 as revealed by its reduced nuclear translocation. The study thus elucidates the detailed mechanism of the role of PD-1 in macrophage apoptosis and its negative modulation by Leishmania for their intracellular survival.
