The extracellular domain of CD11d regulates its cell surface expression
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A mAb targeting the CD11d subunit of the leukocyte integrin CD11d/CD18 decreases intraspinal inflammation and oxidative damage leading to improved neurological outcomes in rodent models of SCI. CD11d/CD18 is the fourth member of the beta2-integrin family. Current evidence indicates that CD11d/CD18 is regulated differently than other beta2-integrins, suggesting that CD11d(+) leukocytes play a distinct role in inflammation. Although the transcriptional control of CD11d expression has been evaluated, control of the intracellular distribution of CD11d has not been addressed. For this reason and as a result of the potential of CD11d as a therapeutic target for SCI and possibly other CNS injuries, we investigated the intracellular localization and surface expression of CD11d in cultured cells. CD11d and CD18 were fused at their C-termini with YFP and mRFP, respectively. Flow cytometry and confocal microscopy demonstrated that rCD11d-YFP is expressed on the cell surface of leukocyte cell lines expressing CD18. In contrast, in heterologous cell lines, CD11d-YFP is retained intracellularly in the TGN. Coexpression of CD11d-YFP and CD18-mRFP relieves this intracellular restriction and allows the CD11d/CD18 heterodimer to be surface-expressed. Based on domain-swapping experiments with CD25, the extracellular domain of CD11d is required and sufficient for the observed intracellular retention in heterologous cells. Furthermore, the transmembrane and C-terminus are also required for proper heterodimerization with CD18 and localization to the plasma membrane. These findings suggest that multiple CD11d domains play a role in controlling intracellular location and association with CD18.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
