Elevated Expression of C-Type Lectin Domain Family 5-Member A (CLEC5A) and Its Relation to Inflammatory Parameters and Disease Course in Adult-Onset Still's Disease.

Abstract：

:C-type lectin domain family 5-member A (CLEC5A) associates with adaptor DAP12 (DNAX activation protein 12) to form receptor complexes involved in inflammatory responses. We postulated a potential role of CLEC5A in the pathogenesis of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) and aimed to investigate CLEC5A expression and its association with activity parameters and disease course. In 34 AOSD patients and 12 healthy controls (HC), circulating levels of CLEC5A-expressing monocytes or granulocytes were determined by flow cytometry analysis, the mRNA expression of CLEC5A and DAP12 on PBMCs by quantitative PCR, and plasma levels of proinflammatory cytokines by ELISA. AOSD patients had significantly higher percentages and mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of CLEC5A-expressing monocytes (median 62.1% and 3.20, respectively) or granulocytes (72.6% and 3.22, respectively) compared with HC (in monocytes: 17.0% and 0.65, both p < 0.001; in granulocytes: 67.3%, p < 0.05 and 0.90, p < 0.001; respectively). Patients also had significantly higher levels of CLEC5A mRNA expression on PBMCs compared with HC (median 1.77 vs. 0.68, p < 0.05). The levels of CLEC5A-expressing monocytes or granulocytes were positively associated with activity scores and levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in AOSD patients. The patients with a systemic pattern had significantly higher levels of CLEC5A-expressing granulocytes and IL-18 compared to those with a chronic articular pattern of disease course. After 6 months of therapy, levels of CLEC5A-expressing monocytes and granulocytes significantly declined, paralleling the decrease of AOSD activity. Elevated CLEC5A levels and their positive association with activity parameters suggest that CLEC5A is involved in the pathogenesis and may serve as an activity indicator of AOSD.
