Han Z, Fan Y, Yang Z, Loor JJ, Yang Y. Mammary Transcriptome Profile during Peak and Late Lactation Reveals Differentially Expression Genes Related to Inflammation and Immunity in Chinese Holstein. Animals (Basel) 2020; 10:ani10030510.

Abstract
Simple Summary Milk somatic cell count, referring to the total number of somatic cells per milliliter of bovine milk, changes regularly during the lactation cycle. The somatic cell count of healthy cows is usually higher in late lactation than in peak lactation. When the inflammatory response in dairy cow mammary gland becomes more intense, the milk somatic cell count increases together with the reduction of milk quality and yield. Autoimmunity was thought to play an important role in the prevention of mastitis in late lactation of dairy cattle. However, the underlying mechanisms related to the gene expression levels during the process remain unknown. In this study, transcriptome sequencing was performed to screen the differentially expressed genes related to the inflammation and immunity in healthy Chinese Holstein mammary glands. Our findings are helpful to understand the physiological functions of mammary inflammation of Chinese Holstein during late lactation. Abstract Somatic cell count (SCC) in milk is widely used in the dairy industry, as an indicator of the health of mammary gland. While the SCC of dairy cattle was higher in late lactation than in peak lactation, its association with gene expressions of mammary gland were largely unknown. In this study, a transcriptomic sequencing approach and bioinformatics analysis were used to investigate the differential expressed genes (DEGs) associated with inflammation and immunity between peak and late periods of lactation in Chinese Holstein. A total of 446 DEGs (padj < 0.05 and fold change >2) were identified, 50 of which belonged to seven pathways and five terms related to inflammation and immunity. Our data suggested that the activation of nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway and Toll-like receptor signaling pathway caused inflammatory response, and the activation of chemokine signaling pathway and cytokine–cytokine receptor interaction signaling pathway caused a protective immune response to ensure dairy cows health during late lactation. Our findings deepen the understanding of the molecular mechanism and physiological functions of mammary inflammation in Chinese Holstein during late lactation.

Abstract
Intercellular adhesion molecule 3 (ICAM-3) is a leukocyte-specific receptor involved in primary immune responses. We have investigated the interaction between ICAM-3 and ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) proteins and its role in LFA-1-induced cell-cell interactions and membrane positioning of ICAM-3 in polarized migrating lymphocytes. Protein-protein binding assays demonstrated a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-induced association between ICAM-3 and the amino-terminal domain of ERM proteins. This interaction was not essential for the binding of ICAM-3 to LFA-1. Dynamic fluorescence videomicroscopy studies of cells demonstrated that moesin and ICAM-3 coordinately redistribute on the plasma membrane during lymphocyte migration. Furthermore, overexpression of the amino-terminal domain of moesin, which lacks the consensus moesin actin-binding site, caused the subcellular mislocalization of ICAM-3. A CD4 chimerical protein containing the cytoplasmic tail of ICAM-3 was targeted to the trailing edge. Point mutation of Ser(487), Ser(489), and Ser(496) to alanine in the juxtamembrane region of ICAM-3 significantly impaired both ERM binding and polarization of ICAM-3. ERM-directed polarization of ICAM-3 was also impaired by phosphorylation-like mutation of Ser(487) and Ser(489), but not of Ser(496). Our results underscore the key role of specific serine residues within the cytoplasmic region of ICAM-3 for its ERM-directed positioning at the trailing edge of motile lymphocytes.

Abstract
The leukocyte differentiation antigen CD50 (intercellular adhesion molecule-3, ICAM-3), mediates cell-cell adhesion through its ligand LFA-1 and is a transducting receptor molecule during T-cell activation. Since CD50 homologues in other species have not yet been identified, the role of this molecule can only be analyzed in human cell models. Thus, to better study CD50 function in T cells, we have obtained two CD50-negative T-cell clones, named CAMY.1 and CAMY.2. These clones were derived from the Jurkat T-cell variant PPL.1. Data from analysis of protein expression, specific mRNA content and calcium mobilization assays have confirmed the absence of functional CD50 molecules on these two clones. Thus, CAMY.1 and CAMY.2 show no CD50 expression by phenotypical and immunoprecipitation analysis. CD50-specific mRNA content is undetectable by Northern blot analysis in these clones and, only, when RT-PCR was performed could specific mRNA be detected. Additionally, CD50 cross-linking on theses clones shows no increase in intracellular calcium. Transfection of CD50 cDNA on CAMY cells restores not only CD50 surface expression, but its functional ability to induce calcium mobilization, CD69 upregulation and cell morphological changes. The CAMY.1 and CAMY.2 clones provide useful model systems to analyze CD50 function in T cells.

Abstract
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is an inducible glycoprotein that interacts with the leukocyte beta 2-integrins, LFA-1 and Mac-1. We have isolated and analyzed a cDNA clone coding for the putative bovine ICAM-1 gene and compared it with known comparative sequences from other species as well as bovine ICAM-3. The 3398-bp bovine ICAM-1 cDNA sequence codes for 535 amino acids and shows 57% homology with human ICAM-1 and 47% homology with bovine ICAM-3 at the amino acid levels. The predicted number and positions of cysteine residues in bovine ICAM-1 are all conserved among species including bovine ICAM-3. It has two arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) sites in the extracellular region and a serine residue in the cytoplasmic tail. Northern blot results show that the bovine ICAM-1 gene is expressed in stimulated leukocytes whereas bovine ICAM-3 is expressed predominantly in resting neutrophils.

Abstract
Intercellular adhesion molecule-3 (ICAM-3), a ligand for beta2 integrins, elicits a variety of activation responses in lymphocytes. We describe a functional mapping study that focuses on the 37-residue cytoplasmic region of ICAM-3. Carboxyl-terminal truncations delineated portions involved in T cell antigen receptor costimulation, homotypic aggregation, and cellular spreading. Truncation of the membrane distal 25 residues resulted in loss of T cell antigen receptor costimulation as determined by interleukin 2 secretion. Aggregation and cell spreading were sensitive to truncation of the membrane distal and proximal thirds of the cytoplasmic portion. Phosphoamino acid analysis revealed that ICAM-3 from activated cells contained phosphoserine and phosphopeptide mapping identified Ser489 as a site of phosphorylation in vivo. Mutation of Ser489 or Ser515 to alanine blocked interleukin 2 secretion, aggregation and cell spreading, while mutation of other serine residues affected only a subset of functions. Ser489 was a phosphorylation site in vitro for recombinant protein kinase Ctheta. Finally, treatment of Jurkat cells with chelerythrine chloride, a protein kinase C inhibitor, prevented ICAM-3-triggered spreading. This study delineates separable regions and amino acid residues within the cytoplasmic portion of ICAM-3 that are important for T cell function.

Abstract
CD50 (ICAM-3) has been identified as the third CD11a/CD18 (LFA-1) counter receptor. We investigated the expression and possible role of this molecule in the induction of early and late activation events in human thymocytes. We observed that CD50 expression is acquired by early T cell progenitors (CD34+) and maintained during thymic development, reaching the highest levels in the most mature population of thymocytes (CD3high). Neither basal nor cytokine-induced expression of CD50 was observed on untransformed human thymic epithelial cell lines. Cross-linking of CD50 expressed on the surface of human thymocytes, by using mAbs recognizing epitopes not related to the CD11a binding site, transduced transmembrane signals leading to an increase of intracellular calcium concentration. This calcium mobilization was inhibited when CD50 was co-cross-linked with CD45, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation is also involved in CD50 signaling. The same anti-CD50 mAbs that were able to affect intracellular calcium levels were shown to induce CD69 but not CD25 expression on human thymocytes. This effect was preferentially observed on CD3low/CD3high thymocyte subpopulations. Cross-linking of CD50 also significantly increased activation-induced cell death of human thymocytes. These results support the idea that CD50 molecule can play a role in developing functionally mature T lymphocytes.

Abstract
A cDNA encoding a putative bovine intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-3, a ligand of the leukocyte integrin LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18), was sequenced and compared with human ICAM sequences. The 1635-bp bovine sequence codes for a protein of 544 amino acids (aa). This putative bovine ICAM-3 has five immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains similar to human ICAM-1 and ICAM-3, and belongs to the Ig gene superfamily. The overall identities of the deduced aa sequence with those of human ICAM-3 and ICAM-1 are 61% and 58%, respectively. The predicted number and positions of Cys residues are all conserved between the bovine and human ICAM 3 aa sequences.

Abstract
CD50, the intercellular adhesion molecule-3 (ICAM-3), is expressed almost exclusively on hematopoietic cells. T lymphocytes display a bimodal distribution on CD50 expression levels. It was observed that CD45RO+ cells expressed higher levels of CD50 than CD45RA+ T lymphocytes. A similar situation was observed when CD4 and CD8 subpopulations were analyzed, with CD8+ cells expressing higher levels of CD50 than CD4+ cells. When adult T lymphocytes were analyzed by three-color flow cytometry in CD8+CD45RA+ cells both CD50low and CD50high expressing cells were detected, in accordance with several memory markers on T lymphocytes, whereas only cells with a low level of CD50 were observed in CD4+CD45RA+. The different level of CD50 expression was confirmed by analyzing purified CD45RA+ and CD45RO+ T cells. Moreover, after the comparison of CD50 expression level in thymocytes, cord blood and adult T lymphocytes, a progressive increase was observed. When T cells were sorted by their intensity of CD50 expression, only CD50high cells proliferated in response to tetanus toxoid. Therefore, the phenotypic and functional analysis of adult and cord blood T lymphocytes as well as thymocytes indicates that CD50 expression increases during the maturation process of T lymphocytes: from the lowest CD50 levels present on CD1+ thymocytes, to the highest levels of CD50 on human memory T cells. In addition, we have observed that after CD50 cross-linking on human T lymphocytes, a transient increase in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) is produced. When CD45RA+ and CD45RO+ T cells were analyzed, in spite of the level of CD50 expression, the stimulation through CD50 induced a similar level of Ca2+ mobilization in both subpopulations, contrasting with the higher rise in [Ca2+]i induced by CD3 stimulation on CD45RA+ versus CD45RO+. These data suggest that the signal transduction pathways activated after CD50 cross-linking are, at least partially, independent of those involved after CD3 stimulation.

Abstract
The leukocyte differentiation antigen, CD50, has been recently identified as the intercellular adhesion molecule 3 (ICAM-3), the third counter-receptor of leukocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1). This molecule seems to be specially involved in the adhesion events of the initial phases of the immune response. To characterize the role of CD50 in leukocyte interactions, the different molecular events induced after cross-linking of CD50 on T cell-derived Jurkat cell line have been analyzed. When cells were incubated with anti-CD50 mAbs and cross-linked with polyclonal goat anti-mouse immunoglobulins, a rise in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) was observed. This increase in [Ca2+]i was mainly due to the uptake of extracellular Ca2+. This Ca2+ flux involved tyrosine phosphorylations and was further increased by CD3 costimulation. These data, together with those obtained by phosphotyrosine (P-Tyr) immunoprecipitation and in vitro kinase assays, suggested the involvement of protein-tyrosine kinases (PTK) in CD50 transduction pathways. By using specific antisera, the presence of p56lck and p59fyn protein tyrosine kinases (PTK) was clearly demonstrated in the CD50 immunoprecipitates. These findings suggest that the interaction of CD50 with its natural ligand (LFA-1) may result in T lymphocyte activation events, in which CD50 could play a very active role after antigen triggering.

Abstract
Regulated adhesion of T lymphocytes to antigen-presenting cells, endothelial cells and extracellular matrix proteins is crucial in T lymphocyte activation and migration to the sites of injury. In this study, we show that three monoclonal antibodies (mAb) recognizing different epitopes on the CD50 (ICAM-3) molecule increase T lymphocyte adhesion to tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-stimulated human umbilical vein endothelial cells and extracellular matrix proteins. These phenomena are mediated by an increase in beta 1 and beta 2 integrin avidity since (a) CD50-induced adhesion to endothelial cells was abrogated by simultaneous blocking of beta 1- and beta 2-mediated adhesion pathways but not by interfering with either one individually, (b) CD50 mAb increased beta 1 integrin-mediated adhesion to extracellular matrix proteins and to fibronectin-derived synthetic peptides, (c) CD50 mAb enhanced T lymphocyte binding to ICAM-1 transfectants, and (d) CD50 mAb did not modify surface expression patterns of beta 1 or beta 2 integrins on T lymphocytes. Our data suggest that constitutively expressed CD50 (ICAM-3) can play a pivotal role in initiating a cascade of adhesion events which may be crucial in immune activation and in the development of inflammatory lesions.

Abstract
The cell surface is covered with protein molecules that are held in the membrane by hydrophobic transmembrane segments or glycosyl–phosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors. Antigens found on cell surfaces comprise not only those encoded by the cell itself but also the products of intracellular parasites. Soluble ligands may be bound to receptor structures on the cell membrane or lectin-like molecules bound to cell-surface carbohydrate structures. The molecules that form an integral part of the cell surface may be proteins, glycoproteins, or glycolipids. They subserve one of three major functions: adhesion, antigen recognition, or receptors for soluble mediators. However, many cell-surface molecules possess more than one function—for example, molecules involved in cell–cell or cell–extracellular matrix adhesion can also themselves be involved in signal transduction. The cell-surface antigens of leukocytes have been intensively studied because of ease of access to this cellular compartment.

Abstract
CDw50 differentiation antigen is a molecule broadly expressed on hematopoetic cells but not on other cells. Previous experiments showed that CDw50 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) inhibited primary mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC). To understand the function of CDw50 better, we purified it and obtained peptide sequence. At the same time, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-3, the third ligand of lymphocyte function-associated molecule 1, was described by mAb and subsequent cDNA cloning. Immunochemical, functional, and protein sequencing studies show that ICAM-3 and CDw50 are the same glycoprotein, a 120-kDa surface molecule with presumably an important role in the immune responses.

Abstract
PPL.1, a Jurkat cell line variant deficient in CDw50 surface expression, has been selected by fluorescence-activated cell sorting and expanded in cell culture. We have studied the expression of several leukocyte surface markers (CD2, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD7, CD26, CD25, CD14, CD18, kCD20, CD43, CD45, CD45R, CD71 and HLA class I and II) and we find no differences in their expression between PPL.1 and its parental Jurkat cell line. Immunoprecipitation analysis of metabolically labelled PPL.1 cells ([35S]-cysteine plus [35S]-methionine) fails to detect the presence of a preformed cytoplasmic pool of CDw50 molecules. The deficient CDw50 expression on PPL.1 cells is stable after several weeks of continuous culture and even after exposure of cells to several lymphocyte activating agents (PGE2, PHA, Con A, calcium ionophore A23187 and human recombinant IFN-gamma). No karyotype changes responsible for such phenotype deficiency are found. PPL.1 cells are as efficient as wild-type Jurkat or K562 cells, when used as targets in cytotoxicity assays with fresh or PHA-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes. No blocking effects of CDw50-specific mAb are observed in such assay. These results are consistent with the fact that CDw50 is not involved in alloreactive T-cell-specific cytotoxicity. They also suggest that this antigen is implicated only on a very specialized type of cell-cell interactions.
