Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Receptor Type 4 (S1P<sub>4</sub>) Is Differentially Regulated in Peritoneal B1 B Cells upon TLR4 Stimulation and Facilitates the Egress of Peritoneal B1a B Cells and Subsequent Accumulation of Splenic IRA B Cells under Inflammatory Conditions

Background: Gram-negative infections of the peritoneal cavity result in profound modifications of peritoneal B cell populations and induce the migration of peritoneal B cells to distant secondary lymphoid organs. However, mechanisms controlling the egress of peritoneal B cells from the peritoneal ca...

description Background: Gram-negative infections of the peritoneal cavity result in profound modifications of peritoneal B cell populations and induce the migration of peritoneal B cells to distant secondary lymphoid organs. However, mechanisms controlling the egress of peritoneal B cells from the peritoneal cavity and their subsequent trafficking remain incompletely understood. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P)-mediated signaling controls migratory processes in numerous immune cells. The present work investigates the role of S1P-mediated signaling in peritoneal B cell trafficking under inflammatory conditions. Methods: Differential S1P receptor expression after peritoneal B cell activation was assessed semi‑quantitatively using RT-PCR in vitro. The functional implications of differential S1P<sub>1</sub> and S1P<sub>4</sub> expression were assessed by transwell migration in vitro, by adoptive peritoneal B cell transfer in a model of sterile lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‑induced peritonitis and in the polymicrobial colon ascendens stent peritonitis (CASP) model. Results: The two sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors (S1PRs) expressed in peritoneal B cell subsets S1P<sub>1</sub> and S1P<sub>4</sub> are differentially regulated upon stimulation with the TLR4 agonist LPS, but not upon PMA/ionomycin or B cell receptor (BCR) crosslinking. S1P<sub>4</sub> deficiency affects both the trafficking of activated peritoneal B cells to secondary lymphoid organs and the positioning of these cells within the functional compartments of the targeted organ. S1P<sub>4</sub> deficiency in LPS-activated peritoneal B cells results in significantly reduced numbers of splenic innate response activator B cells. Conclusions: The S1P-S1PR system is implicated in the trafficking of LPS-activated peritoneal B cells. Given the protective role of peritoneal B1a B cells in peritoneal sepsis, further experiments to investigate the impact of S1P<sub>4</sub>-mediated signaling on the severity and mortality of peritoneal sepsis are warranted.
