text: 'When crawling through the body, leukocytes often traverse tissues that are
densely packed with extracellular matrix and other cells, and this raises the
question: How do leukocytes overcome compressive mechanical loads? Here, we show
that the actin cortex of leukocytes is mechanoresponsive and that this responsiveness
requires neither force sensing via the nucleus nor adhesive interactions with
a substrate. Upon global compression of the cell body as well as local indentation
of the plasma membrane, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASp) assembles into
dot-like structures, providing activation platforms for Arp2/3 nucleated actin
patches. These patches locally push against the external load, which can be obstructing
collagen fibers or other cells, and thereby create space to facilitate forward
locomotion. We show in vitro and in vivo that this WASp function is rate limiting
for ameboid leukocyte migration in dense but not in loose environments and is
required for trafficking through diverse tissues such as skin and lymph nodes.'

text: Eukaryotic cells migrate by coupling the intracellular force of the actin
cytoskeleton to the environment. While force coupling is usually mediated by transmembrane
adhesion receptors, especially those of the integrin family, amoeboid cells such
as leukocytes can migrate extremely fast despite very low adhesive forces1. Here
we show that leukocytes cannot only migrate under low adhesion but can also transmit
forces in the complete absence of transmembrane force coupling. When confined
within three-dimensional environments, they use the topographical features of
the substrate to propel themselves. Here the retrograde flow of the actin cytoskeleton
follows the texture of the substrate, creating retrograde shear forces that are
sufficient to drive the cell body forwards. Notably, adhesion-dependent and adhesion-independent
migration are not mutually exclusive, but rather are variants of the same principle
of coupling retrograde actin flow to the environment and thus can potentially
operate interchangeably and simultaneously. As adhesion-free migration is independent
of the chemical composition of the environment, it renders cells completely autonomous
in their locomotive behaviour.

text: During metazoan development, immune surveillance and cancer dissemination,
cells migrate in complex three-dimensional microenvironments1,2,3. These spaces
are crowded by cells and extracellular matrix, generating mazes with differently
sized gaps that are typically smaller than the diameter of the migrating cell4,5.
Most mesenchymal and epithelial cells and some—but not all—cancer cells actively
generate their migratory path using pericellular tissue proteolysis6. By contrast,
amoeboid cells such as leukocytes use non-destructive strategies of locomotion7,
raising the question how these extremely fast cells navigate through dense tissues.
Here we reveal that leukocytes sample their immediate vicinity for large pore
sizes, and are thereby able to choose the path of least resistance. This allows
them to circumnavigate local obstacles while effectively following global directional
cues such as chemotactic gradients. Pore-size discrimination is facilitated by
frontward positioning of the nucleus, which enables the cells to use their bulkiest
compartment as a mechanical gauge. Once the nucleus and the closely associated
microtubule organizing centre pass the largest pore, cytoplasmic protrusions still
lingering in smaller pores are retracted. These retractions are coordinated by
dynamic microtubules; when microtubules are disrupted, migrating cells lose coherence
and frequently fragment into migratory cytoplasmic pieces. As nuclear positioning
in front of the microtubule organizing centre is a typical feature of amoeboid
migration, our findings link the fundamental organization of cellular polarity
to the strategy of locomotion.

text: Dendritic cells (DCs) are sentinels of the adaptive immune system that reside
in peripheral organs of mammals. Upon pathogen encounter, they undergo maturation
and up-regulate the chemokine receptor CCR7 that guides them along gradients of
its chemokine ligands CCL19 and 21 to the next draining lymph node. There, DCs
present peripherally acquired antigen to naïve T cells, thereby triggering adaptive
immunity.

text: T cells are actively scanning pMHC-presenting cells in lymphoid organs and
nonlymphoid tissues (NLTs) with divergent topologies and confinement. How the
T cell actomyosin cytoskeleton facilitates this task in distinct environments
is incompletely understood. Here, we show that lack of Myosin IXb (Myo9b), a negative
regulator of the small GTPase Rho, led to increased Rho-GTP levels and cell surface
stiffness in primary T cells. Nonetheless, intravital imaging revealed robust
motility of Myo9b−/− CD8+ T cells in lymphoid tissue and similar expansion and
differentiation during immune responses. In contrast, accumulation of Myo9b−/−
CD8+ T cells in NLTs was strongly impaired. Specifically, Myo9b was required for
T cell crossing of basement membranes, such as those which are present between
dermis and epidermis. As consequence, Myo9b−/− CD8+ T cells showed impaired control
of skin infections. In sum, we show that Myo9b is critical for the CD8+ T cell
adaptation from lymphoid to NLT surveillance and the establishment of protective
tissue–resident T cell populations.

text: Trafficking cells frequently transmigrate through epithelial and endothelial
monolayers. How monolayers cooperate with the penetrating cells to support their
transit is poorly understood. We studied dendritic cell (DC) entry into lymphatic
capillaries as a model system for transendothelial migration. We find that the
chemokine CCL21, which is the decisive guidance cue for intravasation, mainly
localizes in the trans-Golgi network and intracellular vesicles of lymphatic endothelial
cells. Upon DC transmigration, these Golgi deposits disperse and CCL21 becomes
extracellularly enriched at the sites of endothelial cell-cell junctions. When
we reconstitute the transmigration process in vitro, we find that secretion of
CCL21-positive vesicles is triggered by a DC contact-induced calcium signal, and
selective calcium chelation in lymphatic endothelium attenuates transmigration.
Altogether, our data demonstrate a chemokine-mediated feedback between DCs and
lymphatic endothelium, which facilitates transendothelial migration.

text: Navigation of cells along gradients of guidance cues is a determining step
in many developmental and immunological processes. Gradients can either be soluble
or immobilized to tissues as demonstrated for the haptotactic migration of dendritic
cells (DCs) toward higher concentrations of immobilized chemokine CCL21. To elucidate
how gradient characteristics govern cellular response patterns, we here introduce
an in vitro system allowing to track migratory responses of DCs to precisely controlled
immobilized gradients of CCL21. We find that haptotactic sensing depends on the
absolute CCL21 concentration and local steepness of the gradient, consistent with
a scenario where DC directionality is governed by the signal-to-noise ratio of
CCL21 binding to the receptor CCR7. We find that the conditions for optimal DC
guidance are perfectly provided by the CCL21 gradients we measure in vivo. Furthermore,
we find that CCR7 signal termination by the G-protein-coupled receptor kinase
6 (GRK6) is crucial for haptotactic but dispensable for chemotactic CCL21 gradient
sensing in vitro and confirm those observations in vivo. These findings suggest
that stable, tissue-bound CCL21 gradients as sustainable “roads” ensure optimal
guidance in vivo.

text: 'Actin filaments polymerizing against membranes power endocytosis, vesicular
traffic, and cell motility. In vitro reconstitution studies suggest that the structure
and the dynamics of actin networks respond to mechanical forces. We demonstrate
that lamellipodial actin of migrating cells responds to mechanical load when membrane
tension is modulated. In a steady state, migrating cell filaments assume the canonical
dendritic geometry, defined by Arp2/3-generated 70° branch points. Increased tension
triggers a dense network with a broadened range of angles, whereas decreased tension
causes a shift to a sparse configuration dominated by filaments growing perpendicularly
to the plasma membrane. We show that these responses emerge from the geometry
of branched actin: when load per filament decreases, elongation speed increases
and perpendicular filaments gradually outcompete others because they polymerize
the shortest distance to the membrane, where they are protected from capping.
This network-intrinsic geometrical adaptation mechanism tunes protrusive force
in response to mechanical load.'

text: "The addition of polysialic acid to N- and/or O-linked glycans, referred to
as polysialylation, is a rare posttranslational modification that is mainly known
to control the developmental plasticity of the nervous system. Here we show that
CCR7, the central chemokine receptor controlling immune cell trafficking to secondary
lymphatic organs, carries polysialic acid. This modification is essential for
the recognition of the CCR7 ligand CCL21. As a consequence, dendritic cell trafficking
is abrogated in polysialyltransferase-deficient mice, manifesting as disturbed
lymph node homeostasis and unresponsiveness to inflammatory stimuli. Structure-function
analysis of chemokine-receptor interactions reveals that CCL21 adopts an autoinhibited
conformation, which is released upon interaction with polysialic acid. Thus, we
describe a glycosylation-mediated immune cell trafficking disorder and its mechanistic
basis.\r\n"

text: Most migrating cells extrude their front by the force of actin polymerization.
Polymerization requires an initial nucleation step, which is mediated by factors
establishing either parallel filaments in the case of filopodia or branched filaments
that form the branched lamellipodial network. Branches are considered essential
for regular cell motility and are initiated by the Arp2/3 complex, which in turn
is activated by nucleation-promoting factors of the WASP and WAVE families. Here
we employed rapid amoeboid crawling leukocytes and found that deletion of the
WAVE complex eliminated actin branching and thus lamellipodia formation. The cells
were left with parallel filaments at the leading edge, which translated, depending
on the differentiation status of the cell, into a unipolar pointed cell shape
or cells with multiple filopodia. Remarkably, unipolar cells migrated with increased
speed and enormous directional persistence, while they were unable to turn towards
chemotactic gradients. Cells with multiple filopodia retained chemotactic activity
but their migration was progressively impaired with increasing geometrical complexity
of the extracellular environment. These findings establish that diversified leading
edge protrusions serve as explorative structures while they slow down actual locomotion.

text: Replication-deficient recombinant adenoviruses are potent vectors for the
efficient transient expression of exogenous genes in resting immune cells. However,
most leukocytes are refractory to efficient adenoviral transduction as they lack
expression of the coxsackie/adenovirus receptor (CAR). To circumvent this obstacle,
we generated the R26/CAG-CARΔ1StopF (where R26 is ROSA26 and CAG is CMV early
enhancer/chicken β actin promoter) knock-in mouse line. This strain allows monitoring
of in situ Cre recombinase activity through expression of CARΔ1. Simultaneously,
CARΔ1 expression permits selective and highly efficient adenoviral transduction
of immune cell populations, such as mast cells or T cells, directly ex vivo in
bulk cultures without prior cell purification or activation. Furthermore, we show
that CARΔ1 expression dramatically improves adenoviral infection of in vitro differentiated
conventional and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (DCs), basophils, mast cells, as
well as Hoxb8-immortalized hematopoietic progenitor cells. This novel dual function
mouse strain will hence be a valuable tool to rapidly dissect the function of
specific genes in leukocyte physiology.

text: Directional guidance of cells via gradients of chemokines is considered crucial
for embryonic development, cancer dissemination, and immune responses. Nevertheless,
the concept still lacks direct experimental confirmation in vivo. Here, we identify
endogenous gradients of the chemokine CCL21 within mouse skin and show that they
guide dendritic cells toward lymphatic vessels. Quantitative imaging reveals depots
of CCL21 within lymphatic endothelial cells and steeply decaying gradients within
the perilymphatic interstitium. These gradients match the migratory patterns of
the dendritic cells, which directionally approach vessels from a distance of up
to 90-micrometers. Interstitial CCL21 is immobilized to heparan sulfates, and
its experimental delocalization or swamping the endogenous gradients abolishes
directed migration. These findings functionally establish the concept of haptotaxis,
directed migration along immobilized gradients, in tissues.
