• W3193142328 abstract "ABSTRACT Entamoeba histolytica is the cause of amoebiasis. The trophozoite (amoeba) form of this parasite is capable of invading the intestine, and can disseminate through the bloodstream to other organs. The mechanisms that allow amoebae to evade complement deposition during dissemination have not been well characterized. We previously discovered a novel complement-evasion mechanism employed by E. histolytica . E. histolytica ingests small bites of living human cells in a process termed trogocytosis. We demonstrated that amoebae were protected from lysis by human serum following trogocytosis of human cells, and that amoebae acquired and displayed human membrane proteins from the cells they ingested. Here, we aimed to define how amoebae are protected from complement lysis after performing trogocytosis. We found that amoebae were protected from complement lysis after ingestion of both human Jurkat T cells and red blood cells, and that the level of protection correlated with the amount of material ingested. Trogocytosis of human cells led to a reduction in deposition of C3b on the surface of amoebae. We asked whether display of human complement regulators is involved in amoebic protection, and found that CD59 was displayed by amoebae after trogocytosis. Deletion of a single complement regulatory protein, CD59 or CD46, from Jurkat cells was not sufficient to alter amoebic protection from lysis, suggesting that multiple, redundant complement regulators mediate amoebic protection. However, exogeneous expression of CD46 or CD55 in amoebae was sufficient to confer protection from lysis. These studies shed light on a novel strategy for immune evasion by a pathogen. IMPORTANCE Entamoeba histolytica is the cause of amoebiasis, a diarrheal disease of global importance. While infection is often asymptomatic, the trophozoite (amoeba) form of this parasite is capable of invading and ulcerating the intestine, and can disseminate through the bloodstream to other organs. Understanding how E. histolytica evades the complement system during dissemination is of great interest. Here we demonstrate for the first time that amoebae that have performed trogocytosis (nibbling of human cells) resist deposition of the complement protein C3b. Amoebae that have performed trogocytosis display the complement regulatory protein CD59. Overall, our studies suggest that acquisition and display of multiple, redundant complement regulators is involved in amoebic protection from complement lysis. These findings shed light on a novel strategy for immune evasion by a pathogen. Since other parasites use trogocytosis for cell killing, our findings may apply to the pathogenesis of other infections." @default.
