The immunoreceptor CD300f expressed on monocytes, neutrophils, and mast cells modulates inflammation, phagocytosis, and outcome in models of autoimmune demyelination, allergy, and systemic lupus erythematosus. Alternatively, a finely regulated inflammatory response is crucial to induce regeneration after injury to peripheral nerves considering that hematogenous macrophages, with each other with resident macrophages and de-differentiated Schwann cells, phagocyte distal axonal and myelin debris inside a well-orchestrated inflammatory response. The probable roles and expression of CD300f and its ligands haven’t been reported below these conditions. Strategies: By using quantitative PCR (QPCR) and CD300f-IgG2a fusion protein, we show the expression of CD300f and its ligands in the standard and crush injured sciatic nerve. The putative function of CD300f in peripheral nerve regeneration was analyzed by blocking receptor-ligand interaction using the identical CD300f-IgG2a soluble receptor fusion protein in sciatic nerves of Thy1-YFP-H mice injected at the time of injury. Macrophage M1/M2 polarization phenotype was also analyzed by CD206 and iNOS expression. Outcomes: We located an upregulation of CD300f mRNA and protein expression after injury. Furthermore, the ligands are present in restricted membrane patches of Schwann cells, which stay steady just after the lesion. The lesioned sciatic nerves of Thy1-YFP-H mice injected having a single dose of CD300f-IgG2a show long lasting effects on nerve regeneration characterized by a reduced quantity of YFP-positive fibres developing in to the tibial nerve soon after 10 days post lesion (dpl) as well as a delayed functional recovery when when compared with PBS- or IgG2a-administered handle groups. Animals treated with CD300f-IgG2a show at ten dpl higher numbers of macrophages and CD206-positive cells and lower levels of iNOS expression than each handle groups. At later time points (28 dpl), increased numbers of macrophages and iNOS expression happen. Conclusions: Taken together, these results show that the pair CD300f ligand is implicated in Wallerian degeneration and nerve regeneration by modulating each the influx and phenotype of macrophages.
