    Article Snippet: PAR1 Rabbit anti-Human Polyclonal (N-Terminus) Antibody, 1:1000 , LifeSpan BioSciences , LS-A2583-50.

    Techniques:

    Expression of PAR1 in HAE patient and control. Samples were incubated with rabbit anti-PAR1 antibody followed by peroxidase conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody. The immune reaction was developed by DAB and counterstained with hematoxylin. HAE patient’s ( A , C , E ) and control’s ( B , D , F ) epiglottis ( A , B ), true vocal cord ( C , D ) and false vocal cord ( E , F ) regions are shown. Black arrows indicate endothelial cells and white arrows indicate epithelial cells. Scale bar: 50 μm. Expression pattern of PAR1 in different anatomical locations is compared as staining intensity scores. Green bars represent the control subject’s values, red bars represent the HAE patient’s values. Sum scores ( I ) were calculated by the summation of epithelial cells ( G ), endothelial cells ( H ), leukocytes and interstitial space staining intensity scores (individually ranged from 0 to 3). (EPI: epiglottis, TVC: true vocal cord, FVC: false vocal cord.)

    Techniques: Activation Assay

    C4a acts as an agonist for PAR1 and PAR4. CHO-K1 cells expressing either PAR1 or PAR4 were seeded in a 96-well plate and stimulated with PAR1 agonist TFLLR-NH2, PAR4 agonist AY-NH2, human C4a, C3a, or C5a. After stimulation, the chemiluminescent signal was detected. Culture medium alone was used as a control. (A) C4a and PAR1 agonist TFLLR-NH2 dose-dependently activate PAR1. (B) PAR1 antagonist RWJ56110 dose-dependently inhibits C4a-induced PAR1 activation. (C) C4a and PAR4 agonist AY-NH2 dose-dependently activate PAR4. (D) PAR4 antagonist tcY-NH2 has no effect on C4a-induced PAR4 activation. The data are expressed as fold change compared with control or relative light unit (RLU) and represent the mean ± SE of three independent experiments.

    The N-terminal area of C4a is essentially involved in the activation of PAR1 and PAR4. In contrast to the anaphylatoxins (C3a and C5a) and their corresponding receptors, the desarginated form of C4a (i.e., C4a-desArg) remains to activate both PAR1 (A) and PAR4 (B). Moreover, the C-terminal 20 amino acids of C4a (i.e., C4a-CT20) do not exert agonistic activity on either PAR1 or PAR4. The data are expressed as fold change compared with the control group and represent the mean ± SE of three independent experiments.

    Expression and purification of human His6-C4a for colocalization studies on PAR1/4-expressing cells. (A) Western blots reveal the expression of PAR1 in CHO-K1 PAR1 cells. (B) Western blots reveal the expression of PAR4 in CHO-K1 PAR4 cells. The cell lysate of CHO-K1 cells was used as control. (C) Recombinant human C4a fused to an S-tag and a His6-tag was expressed in E. coli strain Rosetta-gami B (DE3) Lys-S and purified using a His-Trap column and S-protein agarose (EMD). His6-S-tag-C4a, S-tag-C4a, and C4a were analyzed by SDS/PAGE (15%) and stained with Coomassie blue (white spacers indicate noncontiguous lanes from different Coomassie blue staining gels). (D) Amino acid sequence of the recombinant human 6His-C4a fusion protein used for the colocalization experiments. The protein containing 6His and S-tags was expressed in E. coli using pET-32a-hC4a construct based on a previous publication (9). Functional parts of the protein are marked as follows: blue, 6His-tag; red, enterokinase cleavage site; yellow, S-tag; and green, human C4a.

    C4a-induced PAR1 and PAR4 activation signals are not caused by thrombin contamination. The thrombin activity assay reveals that the C4a preparation used in this study fails to activate the chromogenic thrombin substrate even at a concentration of 3 μM, whereas thrombin itself shows activity at less than 1 nM, which can be reversed by adding a thrombin inhibitor. The data are expressed as fold change compared with the control group and represent the mean ± SE of three independent experiments.
