Up-regulation of CD80-CD86 and IgA on mouse peritoneal B-1 cells by porin of Shigella dysenteriae is Toll-like receptors 2 and 6 dependent.
Porin of Shigella dysenteriae type 1 increased the mRNA levels for Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR6 by 1.5- and 2.9-fold respectively, of peritoneal cavity B-1a and B-1b cells, implicating that coexpression of TLR2 and TLR6 is essential as a combinatorial repertoire for recognition of porin by the B-1 cells. Among the two key TLRs, TLR2 and TLR4, which are primarily responsible for recognizing majority of the bacterial products, TLR2 and not TLR4, participates in porin recognition. TLR2 got increased on both the B-1 cell populations whereas the TLR4 expression remained unaffected. Besides TLRs, mRNA for MyD88, an effector molecule associated with TLR-mediated response was enhanced by 1.8-fold that suggests of its involvement in the activity of porin. Both of the B-1 cell populations expressed strongly the mRNA for NF-kappaB in the presence of porin, that was 2.4-fold more than untreated control, conforming to the earlier finding that coexpression of TLR2 and TLR6, resulted in robust NF-kappaB activation for signaling. Porin treatment of B-1 cell populations of C57BL/6 mice, and C3H/HeJ mice in particular, selectively up-regulated the expression of the costimulatory molecules. CD80 expression got enhanced on the B-1a cells whereas CD86 got solely expressed on B-1b cells. Porin-induced cell surface expression of IgM and IgA on B-1 cell populations from C57BL/6 mice. The IgA-generating capacity, hallmark of mucosal immune response, was confirmed with B-1 cells of C3H/HeJ, the lipopolysaccharide non-responder mouse, in response to the protein. The porin-mediated induction of IgA was augmented by interleukin-6 on B-1a and B-1b cells, by 2.4- and 2.6-fold, respectively. The IgA expressed on both B-1a and B-1b cell surfaces after 72 h of culture was found to bind to the 38 kDa monomer of porin confirming it to be anti-porin IgA antibody.
