Background:While there have been advances in the therapy of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in recent years, there have been no major new findings in SLE biomarkers [1, 2]. Type I interferon (IFN) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of SLE [3]. In 2008, we first described CD169 / SIGLEC-1 (sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin-1), an interferon-induced adhesion molecule on monocytes in SLE patients [4]. For over five years SIGLEC-1 has been routinely assessed in our clinic.Objectives:To evaluate and compare the diagnostic utility of the type I IFN induced SIGLEC-1 with established biomarkers in the initial diagnosis of the disease.Methods:We analyzed retrospectively 232 patients who were on suspicion of SLE at Charité University Hospital Berlin between October 2015 and September 2020. Patients underwent full clinical characterization, and biomarkers were determined in the routine laboratory. Based on the final diagnosis, we divided patients into two groups: A) initial diagnosis of SLE and B) Non-SLE mimicking condition.Results:In 76 patients (32.3 %) SLE was confirmed by fulfilling the EULAR / ACR 2019 classification criteria [5]. SIGLEC-1 was dramatically increased in patients with an initial diagnosis of SLE compared to patients without SLE (p<0.0001). For a threshold of 2500 molecule per monocyte, a sensitivity of 98.7 %, a specificity of 82.1 %, a negative predictive value (NPV) of 99.2 %, and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 72.8 % were calculated for SIGLEC-1. Adjusted to the prevalence of SLE in Germany (36.7 per 100,000 inhabitants [6]) NPV and PPV turned out to > 99.9 % and 0.2 %. We further aimed to compare not only the performance of the tests at a given cutoff but also across all possible measured values. Therefore, we conducted ROC curves analyses (see figure 1). The area under the curve (AUC) of SIGLEC-1 test was significantly higher than that of ANA test (AUC=0.88, p=0.031), C3 (AUC = 0.83, p=0.001), C4 (AUC=0.83, p=0.002), but not than that of the Anti-dsDNA ELISA (AUC=0.90, p=0.163).Conclusion:Our study shows that IFN activity is a hallmark at the onset of the disease and that the interferon biomarker SIGLEC-1 is valuable to rule out SLE in suspected cases.References:[1]Ostendorf L, Burns M, Durek P, Heinz GA, Heinrich F, Garantziotis P, Enghard P, Richter U, Biesen R, Schneider U et al: Targeting CD38 with Daratumumab in Refractory Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Abstract Neutrophils appear to form the first line of defense against influenza virus, yet it is unclear how these leukocytes recognize influenza- infected cells. While demonstrating that neutrophils adhere specifically to the sialic acid-binding site on the hemagglutinin molecule (HA) on the surface of influenza-infected (WSN[H1N1]) epithelial cells and not to other viral or epithelial cell antigens, it was observed that human neutrophils do not recognize immune complexes formed with influenza virus. Intact antibodies (mouse monoclonal antibodies [MoAbs] IgG1 and IgG2b, human immune heat-inactivated serum [predominantly IgG1], and IgG purified from human immune serum) that block the sialic acid-binding site on HA significantly reduced (> 80%) neutrophil adherence to influenza-infected epithelial cells. Binding and phagocytosis of free influenza virions and neutrophil agglutination by influenza virus were completely prevented by these antibodies. Intact and F(ab')2 fragments of mouse MoAbs to other viral epitopes caused increased neutrophil adherence to infected cells. This binding was eliminated by F(ab'2) fragments of MoAbs against the sialic acid- binding site on HA, but not by saturating amounts of MoAbs, which block the neutrophil Fc receptors. Thus, it appears that human neutrophils show little ability to bind via their Fc receptors to the immune complexes formed with antibody and either influenza-infected epithelial cells or the free virion. These findings are in contrast to the general dogma, and are the first example of antibody opsonization reducing, rather than enhancing, neutrophil binding and phagocytosis of a pathogen.

ABSTRACT Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) is a natural pathogen of the mouse. The different strains of TMEV are divided into two subgroups according to the pathology they provoke. The neurovirulent strains GDVII and FA induce an acute fatal encephalitis, while persistent strains, like DA and BeAn, cause a chronic demyelinating disease associated with viral persistence in the central nervous system. Different receptor usage was proposed to account for most of the phenotype difference between neurovirulent and persistent strains. Persistent but not neurovirulent strains were shown to bind sialic acid. We characterized DA and GDVII derivatives adapted to grow on CHO-K1 cells. Expression of glycosaminoglycans did not influence infection of CHO-K1 cells by parental and adapted viruses. Mutations resulting from adaptation of DA and GDVII to CHO-K1 cells notably mapped to the well-characterized VP1 CD and VP2 EF loops of the capsid. Adaptation of the DA virus to CHO-K1 cells correlated with decreased sialic acid usage for entry. In contrast, adaptation of the GDVII virus to CHO-K1 cells correlated with the appearance of a weak sialic acid usage for entry. The sialic acid binding capacity of the GDVII variant resulted from a single amino acid mutation (VP1-51, Asn→Ser) located out of the sialic acid binding region defined for virus DA. Mutations affecting tropism in vitro and sialic acid binding dramatically affected the persistence and neurovirulence of the viruses.

Sialic acid acetylesterase (SIAE) deficiency was suggested to lower the levels of ligands for sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like receptors, decreasing the threshold for B-cell activation. In humans, studies of rare heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in SIAE gene in common autoimmune diseases, including juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), yielded inconsistent results. Considering the distinct pathogenesis of the two main subtypes of JIA, autoinflammatory systemic (sJIA) and autoimmune oligo/polyarticular (aJIA), and a predisposition to autoimmunity displayed by patients and families with primary antibody deficiencies (PADs), the aim of our study was to analyze whether SIAE rare variants are associated with both the phenotype of JIA and the autoimmunity risk in families with PADs. A cohort of 69 patients with JIA, 117 healthy children, 54 patients, and family members with PADs were enrolled in the study. Three novel SIAE variants (p.Q343P, p.Y495X, and c.1320+33T>C) were found only in patients with aJIA but interestingly also in their healthy relatives without autoimmunity, while none of PAD patients or their relatives carried SIAE defects. Our results show that SIAE rare variants are not causative of autoimmunity as single defects.

ABSTRACT Recently, we showed that porcine sialoadhesin (pSn) mediates internalization of the arterivirus porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in alveolar macrophages (Vanderheijden et al., J. Virol. 77:8207-8215, 2003). In rodents and humans, sialoadhesin, or Siglec-1, has been described as a macrophage-restricted molecule and to specifically bind sialic acid moieties. In the current study, we investigated whether pSn is a sialic acid binding protein and, whether so, whether this property is important for its function as a PRRSV receptor. Using untreated and neuraminidase-treated sheep erythrocytes, we showed that pSn binds sialic acid. Furthermore, pSn-specific monoclonal antibody 41D3, which blocks PRRSV infection, inhibited this interaction. PRRSV attachment to and infection of porcine alveolar macrophages (PAM) were both shown to be dependent on the presence of sialic acid on the virus: neuraminidase treatment of virus but not of PAM blocked infection and reduced attachment. Enzymatic removal of all N-linked glycans on the virus with N-glycosidase F reduced PRRSV infection, while exclusive removal of nonsialylated N-linked glycans of the high-mannose type with endoglycosidase H had no significant effect. Free sialyllactose and sialic acid containing (neo)glycoproteins reduced infection, while lactose and (neo)glycoproteins devoid of sialic acids had no significant effect. Studies with linkage-specific neuraminidases and lectins indicated that α2-3- and α2-6-linked sialic acids on the virion are important for PRRSV infection of PAM. From these results, we conclude that pSn is a sialic acid binding lectin and that interactions between sialic acid on the PRRS virion and pSn are essential for PRRSV infection of PAM.
