RIFINs displayed on malaria-infected erythrocytes bind KIR2DL1 and KIR2DS1
Nature 2025 s41586-025-09091-y [Link] [AI Podcast]
This is a paper that reveals the possibility that the human natural killer (NK) cell receptor KIR and the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum have co-evolved. In our previous studies, we elucidated that the P. falciparumuses a molecule called RIFIN to suppress the host's immune response (Saito et al., Nature 2017; Harrison et al., Nature2020). However, it has long been a mystery why the KIR gene family includes not only "inhibitory KIRs", which suppress the immune system, but also "activating KIRs", which activate it. In this study, we first discovered that the malaria parasite's RIFIN binds to the inhibitory receptor KIR2DL1 with a tenfold higher affinity than its natural host ligand, HLA-C. Furthermore, we found that the activating receptor KIR2DS1 also recognizes this RIFIN, leading to the activation of NK cells against infected red blood cells. These findings suggest a "co-evolutionary" scenario: in response to the malaria parasite acquiring a mechanism to evade immunity by exploiting inhibitory KIRs, humans evolved activating KIRs to detect and counteract this, thereby gaining a new defense mechanism against infection. This research reveals the possibility that the diversity of the KIR genes was shaped by the selective pressure of malaria, providing important insights into unraveling the history of how the host immune system has evolved in conjunction with infectious diseases.

Neoself-antigens are the primary target for autoreactive T cells in human lupus
Cell 2024 187: 6071-6087 [Link] [AI Podcast]
This paper overturns conventional concept in immunology by discovering that T cells can distinguish between normally presented "self-peptides" and abnormally presented "neoself" on MHC class II molecules. In immunology, it has long been believed that MHC class II molecules present peptides to T cells. However, when the expression of the invariant chain, which is necessary for peptide presentation by MHC class II molecules, is reduced, misfolded proteins from within the cell are presented on MHC class II molecules instead. We refer to these self-antigens, which are not normally presented by MHC class II molecules, as "neoself." By establishing a mouse model where MHC dysfunction could be induced to generate neoself, we discovered that T cells recognize these neoself self-antigens as foreign and attack them, leading to the development of systemic autoimmune disease. Furthermore, we found that approximately 10% of the abnormally activated T cells in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), a systemic autoimmune disease, also recognize this neoself. While most adults are persistently infected with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), it has been reported that a high frequency of its reactivation increases the risk of developing SLE. This study elucidates for the first time a mechanism for autoimmune disease development driven by persistent viral reactivation. We demonstrate that repeated EBV reactivation causes MHC dysfunction, resulting in the generation of neo-self that in turn activates self-reactive T cells in SLE patients.

RIFINs displayed on malaria-infected erythrocytes bind KIR2DL1 and KIR2DS1
Nature 2025 s41586-025-09091-y [Link] [AI Podcast]
This is a paper that reveals the possibility that the human natural killer (NK) cell receptor KIR and the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum have co-evolved. In our previous studies, we elucidated that the P. falciparumuses a molecule called RIFIN to suppress the host's immune response (Saito et al., Nature 2017; Harrison et al., Nature2020). However, it has long been a mystery why the KIR gene family includes not only "inhibitory KIRs", which suppress the immune system, but also "activating KIRs", which activate it. In this study, we first discovered that the malaria parasite's RIFIN binds to the inhibitory receptor KIR2DL1 with a tenfold higher affinity than its natural host ligand, HLA-C. Furthermore, we found that the activating receptor KIR2DS1 also recognizes this RIFIN, leading to the activation of NK cells against infected red blood cells. These findings suggest a "co-evolutionary" scenario: in response to the malaria parasite acquiring a mechanism to evade immunity by exploiting inhibitory KIRs, humans evolved activating KIRs to detect and counteract this, thereby gaining a new defense mechanism against infection. This research reveals the possibility that the diversity of the KIR genes was shaped by the selective pressure of malaria, providing important insights into unraveling the history of how the host immune system has evolved in conjunction with infectious diseases.

Neoself-antigens are the primary target for autoreactive T cells in human lupus
Cell 2024 187: 6071-6087 [Link] [AI Podcast]
This paper overturns conventional concept in immunology by discovering that T cells can distinguish between normally presented "self-peptides" and abnormally presented "neoself" on MHC class II molecules. In immunology, it has long been believed that MHC class II molecules present peptides to T cells. However, when the expression of the invariant chain, which is necessary for peptide presentation by MHC class II molecules, is reduced, misfolded proteins from within the cell are presented on MHC class II molecules instead. We refer to these self-antigens, which are not normally presented by MHC class II molecules, as "neoself." By establishing a mouse model where MHC dysfunction could be induced to generate neoself, we discovered that T cells recognize these neoself self-antigens as foreign and attack them, leading to the development of systemic autoimmune disease. Furthermore, we found that approximately 10% of the abnormally activated T cells in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), a systemic autoimmune disease, also recognize this neoself. While most adults are persistently infected with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), it has been reported that a high frequency of its reactivation increases the risk of developing SLE. This study elucidates for the first time a mechanism for autoimmune disease development driven by persistent viral reactivation. We demonstrate that repeated EBV reactivation causes MHC dysfunction, resulting in the generation of neo-self that in turn activates self-reactive T cells in SLE patients.

各種自己抗体が陰性で原因不明の難治性皮膚潰瘍の患者さんの約3割にβ2グライコプロテインI/HLAクラスII複合体に対する自己抗体が陽性になることが判明した。 従って、原因不明の皮膚潰瘍の患者さんの原因として抗リン脂質抗体症候群が関与している可能性が明らかになった。 HLAクラスII分子によって形成された「ネオセルフ」を用いることによって、今まで検出できなかった自己抗体も検出できるようになることから、 免疫疾患の診断上でも有用であることが判明した。
