This study found that soluble CD93 (sCD93) can bind to the proinflammatory factor HMGB1 and block its interaction with receptors, thereby exerting anti-inflammatory effects. sCD93 can inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines and reduce the activation of intracellular signaling pathways, thereby alleviating inflammation. This finding reveals a novel mechanism by which sCD93 alleviates inflammation by blocking the interaction between HMGB1 and effector cells.
Rationale: CD93, a C-type lectin-like transmembrane glycoprotein, can be shed in a soluble form (sCD93) upon inflammatory stimuli. sCD93 effectively enhances apoptotic cell clearance and has been proposed as an inflammatory disease biomarker. The function of sCD93 involved directly in inflammation remains to be determined. Herein, we attempted to examine the hypothesis that sCD93 might sequester proinflammatory high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), exerting anti-inflammatory properties.Methods: Different forms of soluble recombinant human CD93 (rCD93) were prepared by a mammalian protein expression system. rCD93-HMGB1 interaction was assessed using co-immunoprecipitation and solid-phase binding assays. Effects of soluble rCD93 were evaluated in HMGB1-induced macrophage and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) activation and receptor activator of nuclear factor -KB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis, CaCl2-induced and angiotensin II-infused abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) formation and ovariectomized-induced osteoporosis in mice.Results: Protein binding studies revealed that soluble rCD93, via the lectin-like domain (D1), can bind to HMGB1 and intercept HMGB1-receptor interaction. Soluble rCD93 containing D1 inhibited HMGB1-induced proinflammatory cytokine production and intracellular mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/nuclear factor (NF) -KB activation in macrophages and VSMCs, thereby attenuating CaCl2-induced and angiotensin II-infused AAA models. During osteoclastogenesis, RANKL stimulated HMGB1 secretion that promoted RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis in return. Soluble rCD93 containing D1 impeded RANKL-induced osteoclastogenic marker gene expression and intracellular MAPK/NF-KB signaling, thereby mitigating ovariectomized-induced osteoporosis.Conclusion: These findings demonstrate the therapeutic potential of soluble recombinant CD93 containing D1 in inflammatory diseases. Our study highlights a novel anti-inflammatory mechanism, i.e., sequestration of HMGB1, through which sCD93 prevents HMGB1-receptor interaction on effector cells and alleviates inflammation.
