Human neutrophil granulocytes die rapidly, and
their survival is contingent upon rescue from programmed cell death by
signals from the environment. Here we report that a novel signal
for delaying neutrophil apoptosis is the classic acute phase
reactant, C-reactive protein (CRP). However, this anti-apoptotic
activity is expressed only when the cyclic pentameric structure of CRP
is lost, resulting in formation of modified or monomeric CRP (mCRP),
which may be formed in inflamed tissues. By contrast, native pentameric
CRP and CRP peptides 77-82, 174-185, and 201-206 failed to affect neutrophil apoptosis. The apoptosis delaying action of mCRP was markedly attenuated by an antibody against the low affinity IgG immune
complex receptor (CD16) but not by an anti-CD32 antibody. mCRP evoked a
transient concurrent activation of the extracellular signal-regulated
kinase (ERK) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt signaling pathways,
leading to inhibition of caspase-3 and consequently to delaying
apoptosis. Consistently, pharmacological inhibition of either ERK or
Akt reversed the anti-apoptotic action of mCRP; however, they did not
produce additive inhibition. Thus, mCRP, but not pentameric CRP or
peptides derived from CRP, promotes neutrophil survival and may
therefore contribute to amplification of the inflammatory response.
