    Abstract We aimed to investigate the effects of integrin αIIbβ3 inhibitor tirofiban on hallmarks of platelet activation, degranulation, and aggregation during its use to analyze activated but non-complexed platelets via flow cytometry. To do so, we used washed platelets from healthy human donors. We combined aggregometry, an assay of platelet functionality, with flow cytometry and ELISA to detect and correlate, respectively, platelet aggregation, activation, and granule release. While tirofiban effectively inhibited agonist-induced platelet aggregation (thrombin receptor-activating peptide 6 (TRAP), convulxin (CVX), U46619 and IV.3), the surface expression of P-selectin and CD63 and granule release of RANTES were significantly increased, indicating that tirofiban enhances degranulation, uncoupled from aggregation. The results show that tirofiban alters the activation phenotype of platelets, something that should be considered when using tirofiban to enable flow cytometric analysis of activated but unaggregated platelet suspensions.

    Results: In contrast to sera from humans and a broad variety of mammalian species, serum from mice, surprisingly, killed parasites already at skin stage
    Conclusion: This study reveals that not yet identified heat-labile serum factors are major selective determinants of the host-specificity of schistosomiasis, by directly controlling schistosomal development and survival.

    Abstract Rapid elimination of microbes from the bloodstream, along with the ability to mount an adaptive immune response, are essential for optimal host-defense. Kupffer cells are strategically positioned in the liver sinusoids and efficiently capture circulating microbes from the hepatic artery and portal vein, thus preventing bacterial dissemination. In vivo and in vitro studies have probed how complement receptor of the immunoglobulin superfamily (CRIg), also referred to as Z39Ig and V-set and Ig domain-containing 4 (VSIG4), acts as a critical player in pathogen recognition and clearance. While recent data suggested that CRIg may bind bacterial cell wall components directly, the single transmembrane receptor is best known for its interaction with complement C3 opsonization products on the microbial surface. On Kupffer cells, CRIg must capture opsonized microbes against the shear forces of the blood flow. In vivo work reveals how immune adherence (IA), a process in which blood platelets or erythrocytes associate with circulating bacteria, plays a critical role in regulating pathogen capture by CRIg under flow conditions. In addition to its typical innate immune functions, CRIg was shown to directly and indirectly influence adaptive immune responses. Here, we review our current understanding of the diverse roles of CRIg in pathogen elimination, anti-microbial immunity and autoimmunity. In particular, we will explore how, through selective capturing by CRIg, an important balance is achieved between the immunological and clearance functions of liver and spleen.

    Abstract The complement system provides vital immune protection against infectious agents by labeling them with complement fragments that enhance phagocytosis by immune cells. Many details of complement-mediated phagocytosis remain elusive, partly because it is difficult to study the role of individual complement proteins on target surfaces. Here, we employ serum-free methods to couple purified complement C3b onto E. coli bacteria and beads and then expose human neutrophils to these C3b-coated targets. We examine the neutrophil response using a combination of flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, luminometry, single-live-cell/single-target manipulation, and dynamic analysis of neutrophil spreading on opsonin-coated surfaces. We show that purified C3b can potently trigger phagocytosis and killing of bacterial cells via Complement receptor 1. Comparison of neutrophil phagocytosis of C3b- versus antibody-coated beads with single-bead/single-target analysis exposes a similar cell morphology during engulfment. However, bulk phagocytosis assays of C3b-beads combined with DNA-based quenching reveal that these are poorly internalized compared to their IgG1 counterparts. Similarly, neutrophils spread slower on C3b-coated compared to IgG-coated surfaces. These observations support the requirement of multiple stimulations for efficient C3b-mediated uptake. Together, our results establish the existence of a direct pathway of phagocytic uptake of C3b-coated targets and present methodologies to study this process.
