The C-type lectin receptor (CTLR), Clec4d (MCL, CLECSF8), is a member of the Dectin-2 cluster of CTLRs, which also includes the related receptors Mincle and Dectin-2. Like Mincle, Clec4d recognizes mycobacterial cord factor, trehalose dimycolate, and we recently demonstrated its key role in anti-mycobacterial immunity in mouse and man. Here, we characterized receptor expression in naïve mice, under inflammatory conditions, and during Mycobacterium bovis BCG infection using newly generated monoclonal antibodies. In naïve mice, Clec4d was predominantly expressed on myeloid cells within the peritoneal cavity, blood, and bone marrow. Unexpectedly, basal expression of Clec4d was very low on leukocytes in the lung. However, receptor expression was significantly upregulated on pulmonary myeloid cells during M. bovis BCG infection. Moreover, Clec4d expression could be strongly induced in vitro and in vivo by various microbial stimuli, including TLR agonists, but not exogenous cytokines. Notably, we show that Clec4d requires association with the signaling adaptor FcRγ and Mincle, but not Dectin-2, for surface expression. In addition, we provide evidence that Clec4d and Mincle, but not Dectin-2, are interdependently coregulated during inflammation and infection. These data show that Clec4d is an inducible myeloid-expressed CTLR in mice, whose expression is tightly linked to that of Mincle.
C型凝集素受体(CTLR)Clec4d(MCL,CLECSF8)是CTLRs的Dectin-2簇成员,该簇还包括相关受体Mincle和Dectin-2。与Mincle一样,Clec4d可识别分枝杆菌索状因子、海藻糖二霉菌酸酯,并且我们最近证明了其在小鼠和人类抗分枝杆菌免疫中的关键作用。在此,我们使用新生成的单克隆抗体,对未感染小鼠、炎症条件下以及牛分枝杆菌卡介苗感染期间的受体表达进行了表征。在未感染小鼠中,Clec4d主要表达于腹腔、血液和骨髓中的髓样细胞上。出乎意料的是,肺中白细胞上Clec4d的基础表达非常低。然而,在牛分枝杆菌卡介苗感染期间,肺髓样细胞上的受体表达显著上调。此外,包括TLR激动剂在内的各种微生物刺激可在体外和体内强烈诱导Clec4d表达,但外源性细胞因子则不能。值得注意的是,我们发现Clec4d的表面表达需要与信号转导衔接子FcRγ和Mincle结合,但不需要与Dectin-2结合。此外,我们提供的证据表明,在炎症和感染期间,Clec4d和Mincle相互依赖地共同调节,而Dectin-2则不然。这些数据表明,Clec4d是小鼠中一种可诱导的髓样表达CTLR,其表达与Mincle紧密相关。
