TREM-1 (Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells-1) is an immunoreceptor expressed on neutrophils, monocytes/macrophages, and endothelial cells.It amplifies the inflammatory response driven by Toll-Like Receptors (TLR) engagement.The pharmacological inhibition of TREM-1 confers protection in several pre-clinical models of acute inflammation.

In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of TREM-1 in endothelial cells using a sneaking ligand construct (SLC) inhibiting TREM-1 in the endothelium.The SLC was made of 3 modules: an E-selectin targeting domain, a Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin a translocation domain, turbo air m3f24-1-n and a 7 aa peptide (LSKSLVF) that contains the interaction bilstein shocks jeep xj site between TREM-1 and its adaptor protein DAP-12.SLC peptide was effectively picked up by endothelial cells following LPS stimulation.

It decreased LPS induced TREM-1 up-regulation and cell activation, neutrophils extravasation, and improved median survival time during experimental peritonitis in mice.We reported that a targeted endothelial TREM-1 inhibition is able to dampen cell activation and to confer protection during septic shock in mice.The use of such cell-specific, ligand- independent TREM-1 inhibitors deserve further investigations during acute or chronic inflammatory disorders.
