• W2922996176 abstract "Abstract The long Pentraxin 3 (PTX3), a soluble pattern recognition molecule, plays a critical role in inflammation, tissue repair and wound healing. Here, we show that PTX3 regulates disease pathogenesis in cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL). PTX3 expression is increased in active skin lesions in patients and mice during CL, with higher levels being expressed in individuals with severe disease. PTX3 deficient (PTX3 -/- ) mice were highly resistant to L. major infection and the enhanced resistance was associated with increased IL-17 response. Neutralization of IL-17A abolished this enhanced resistance while treatment with recombinant PTX3 resulted in reduced IL-17A response and increased susceptibility to L. major infection. Naïve CD4 + T cells from PTX3 -/- mice displayed increased differentiation into Th17 cells, which was reversed in the presence of recombinant PTX3. The enhanced Th17 response observed in PTX3 -/- cells was associated with increased Leishmania specific IL-6 production from dendritic cells along with enhanced expression of Th17-specific transcription factors including RORγt, AhR and STAT3. Addition of recombinant PTX3 significantly inhibited the expression of Th17-specific transcription factors and dramatically reduced the frequency of Th17 cells in Th17-polarizing cultures of PTX3 -/- CD4 + T cells. Collectively, our results show that PTX3 contributes to the pathogenesis of CL by suppressing Th17 differentiation and IL-17A production. Author Summary Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is caused by several species of Leishmania . Currently, there is no approved vaccine against human CL because of the poor understanding of the mechanisms that regulate disease pathogenesis and correlates of protective immunity. Because the long pentraxin 3 (PTX3, a soluble pattern recognition molecule that forms an integral part of the host innate immunity), regulates inflammation and tissue repair, which are critical physiological events associated with resolution of skin lesions during CL, we investigated its role in disease pathogenesis. Here, we show that PTX3 levels were elevated in skin-lesions in patients and mice during CL. Using a loss of function approach, we showed that PTX3 contributes to pathogenesis, and this was associated with increased IL-17A responses. Neutralization and recombinant cytokine treatment studies showed that the increased resistance of PTX3 deficient mice to L. major is due to enhanced Th17 response in these mice. We further show that PTX3 negatively regulates IL-6 production by dendritic cells and the expression of IL-17A-specific transcription factors (including RORγT, STAT3, IRF4, BATF and AhR) in CD4 + T cells. Collectively, these findings show that PTX3 is a negative regulator of Th17 response and protective immunity during L. major infection." @default.
