- W4385274674 abstract "Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by aberrant development of B cells and excess production of autoantibodies. Our team previously reported that absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) regulates B-cell differentiation via the Bcl-6-Blimp-1 axis. Notably, in keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH)-immunized CD19creAim2f/f mice, the frequency of CD19+CD44+ B cells was decreased, accompanied by a weakened KLH response, indicating that AIM2 deficiency suppressed the antigen-induced B-cell immune response by downregulating the expression of CD44. CD44, a surface marker of T-cell activation and memory, was overexpressed in T cells of SLE patients, but its roles and mechanism in B cells have not been elucidated. In the current work, we revealed that CD44 expression was upregulated in the B cells of SLE patients and MRL/lpr mice, accompanied by elevated AIM2 expression in CD19+CD44+ B-cell subsets, and that its ligand hyaluronan (HA) was also abnormally increased in the serum of SLE patients. Notably, the extrafollicular (EF) region serves as an important site of B-cell activation and differentiation separate from the germinal center, while CD44 expression is concentrated in EF B cells. In addition, in vitro experiments demonstrated that the HA-CD44 interaction stimulated B-cell activation and upregulated the expression of AIM2 and the transcription factor STAT3. Either blocking CD44, knocking down AIM2 expression or suppressing the activity of STAT3 in B cells suppressed B-cell activation and proliferation. Moreover, blocking CD44 downregulated the expression of STAT3 and AIM2, while suppressing the activity of STAT3 decreased the expression of CD44 and AIM2. In summary, overexpressed CD44 in B cells might participate in B-cell activation and proliferation in the EF region via the HA-CD44-AIM2 pathway, providing potential targets for SLE therapy." @default.
