LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) is a noncanonical autophagy process reported in recent years and is one of the effective mechanisms of host defense against bacterial infection. During LAP, bacteria are recognized by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), enter the body, and then recruit LC3 onto a single-membrane phagosome to form a LAPosome. LC3 conjugation can promote the fusion of the LAPosomes with lysosomes, resulting in their maturation into phagolysosomes, which can effectively kill the identified pathogens.

LC3-associated phagocytosis bacterial infection phagocyte

1. Introduction

The innate immune system is the first line of defense against the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms in the host. When they invade, the body can engulf, hydrolyze, and clear them, and manufacture the corresponding epitopes for activating the body’s immune response to the infection ^[1]. LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) plays a very important role in clearing pathogenic microbial infections, and its mechanism is different from phagocytosis and canonical autophagy (hereafter autophagy) (Figure 1).

Figure 1. Phagocytosis, autophagy, and LC3-associated phagocytosis. Given the different origins of phagosome and autophagosome membranes, there are differences in the molecular mechanisms of LAP and autophagy. When foreign substances (e.g., apoptotic cells and invading pathogens) invade the host cell, specific receptors (such as Toll-like receptors, Fcγ receptors, or dectin-1) on the surface of the host phagocytes are activated to initiate LAP. The phagosome enables invading pathogens to be phagocytosed by the plasma membrane to form a single-membrane structure. Intracellular macromolecular proteins and damaged organelles are mainly surrounded by a double-membrane phagophore through autophagy, and then the phagosome and phagophore gradually extend and wrap around part of the cytoplasm and the organelles and proteins that need to be degraded in the cell to form the autophagosome and LAPosome. The autophagosome and endosome form an autophagosome (amphisome), and finally fuse with the lysosome to form the autophagolysosome and phagolysosome, respectively. A series of acid hydrolases are involved in the degradation of cytoplasmic substances to achieve cell homeostasis and organelle renewal (the red wireframe content represents the process of LAP occurrence, the blue wireframe content is the autophagy process, and the yellow wireframe content is the phagocytosis process).

Phagocytosis refers to the act of phagocytic cells ingesting solid particles from the surrounding environment in the form of protruding pseudopodia wraps. It is generally believed that the mechanism of this effect is the same as that of pinocytosis by the invagination of the cell membrane for the uptake of fluid or small molecules ^[2]. When the solid matter is adsorbed on the cell membrane, the membrane protrudes or sinks. Once the cell membranes on both sides are fused, the solid matter surrounded by the membrane is encapsulated in the cell. Phagocytosis in the body’s immune system is generally completed by professional phagocytes, which include dendritic cells, neutrophils, macrophages, and eosinophils ^[3]. These professional phagocytes activate phagocytosis of mammalian immune cells through attachment to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), which can lead to NF-κB activation. Opsonins such as C3b and antibodies can act as attachment sites, thereby immobilizing on the surface of phagocytes, and then promoting the internalization (uptake) of phagosomes through actin and myosin contraction systems, thereby forming phagosomes, which in turn ingest substances. The phagosomes fuse with lysosomes to form phagolysosomes and cause phagosome degradation.

Autophagy (referring to macroautophagy) is a process in which cells degrade their own proteins, organelles, or other intracellular components, and realize the reuse of degradation products and the renewal of organelles. Autophagy is dependent on the formation, maturation, and subcellular relocation of autophagosomes, ultimately leading to the fusion of autophagosomes with lysosomes. Autophagy can be divided into six stages: (1) pre-initiation, (2) autophagy initiation, (3) membrane vesicle extension, (4) autophagosome formation, (5) lysosome fusion, and (6) degradation and reuse. The molecular mechanism of autophagy involving multiple conserved autophagy-related proteins (ATG) has been widely described ^[4]. When the cell receives an autophagy-inducing signal, a membrane structure-like “liposome” is formed in the cytoplasm, and then continuously expands, forming a double-membrane structure under the electron microscope, which is called a phagophore. The phagophore will continue to extend until the components in the cytoplasm (e.g., misfolded proteins, damaged mitochondria) are surrounded, and an autophagosome is formed ^[5]. In this process, two ubiquitin-like coupling pathways are required, and then the fusion of autophagosome and lysosome will form an “autophagolysosome” or autolysosome, at which time the “cargo” endocytosed by the autophagosome will be degraded ^[6].

LAP is a noncanonical autophagy process reported in recent years in which microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-β (LC3) binds to the phagosomal membrane using part of the autophagy mechanism ^[7]. Compared with autophagy that uptakes the cytoplasmic cargo, LAP is reported to target extracellular cargo. When pathogens invade the body initially, receptors on the surface of phagocytes, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), dendritic cell-associated C-type lectin-1 (dectin-1), and Fcγ receptors (FcγRs), recognize and interact with the PAMPs of pathogens to activate the LAP pathway ^[8]^[9]^[10]^[11]^[12]. The recruitment and assembly of the NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) complex on the initial phagosomes after LAP activation ^[13] is caused by the signaling cascade reaction of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) and protein kinase C (PKC), and is stabilized by the Rubicon protein. As part of the autophagy complex containing Beclin-1-vps34, Rubicon is a Beclin1-interacting protein and is essential for LAP maturation ^[14]. The recruitment of NADPH oxidase triggers the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS production leads to the rapid lipidation of LC3 and conjugation to the single-membrane phagosome which is the most different from a double-membrane vesicle in autophagy, thereby forming a vesicle decorated by LC3, which is called a LAPosome. Fusion of the LAPosomes with lysosomes results in their maturation into phagolysosomes, which can effectively eliminate engulfed pathogens, thereby improving the efficiency of phagocytosis and the killing of pathogens by phagolysosome complexes ^[15]^[16]^[17] (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Mechanism of LC3-associated phagocytosis. During pathogen invasion, phagocyte surface-specific receptors (such as TLRs, FcγR, dectin-1) interact with PAMPs and activate the LAP pathway. Rubicon is recruited during LAP and promotes the activity of UVRAG-containing class III PI3K complexes. The PI3K complex, which is the first protein involved in LAP regulation, consists of Beclin-1, VPS34, UVRAG, and Rubicon. Rubicon maintains the stability of the PI3K complex, which in turn sustains the production of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) on the phagosome membrane, and PI3P acts as a downstream recruitment signal for autophagy. This process is necessary to stabilize the NOX2 complex, thereby maintaining the production of reactive oxygen species. PI3P is also critical for the complementation of components (such as ATG5, ATG3, ATG12, ATG7, and ATG16L) of the two subsequent ubiquitin-like conjugation systems (ATG5-ATG12-ATG16L, and the LC3-PE conjugation system) and the stabilization of the NOX2 complex to generate reactive oxygen species. The activation of the NADPH oxidase complex triggers the production of ROS on the phagosome. The production of ROS will lead to the rapid lipidation of LC3 in the phagosome membrane to form the LC3-associated phagosome (LAPosome), which is fused with the lysosome, and a series of acid hydrolases will participate in the degradation of cytoplasmic substances.

LAP is a unique pathway that links signaling during phagocytosis to the recruitment of certain components of the autophagic machinery. The regulation mechanism of autophagosome formation is an important part of autophagy research. LAP and autophagy are similar, but different. In the initiation process, autophagy begins with the formation of a double-membrane vesicle (phagophore) in the cytoplasm. In this process, two protein complexes are involved in autophagy: one containing the VPS34 complex (UVRAG, Beclin1, ATG14, VPS34, VPS15) and one containing the serine/threonine kinase ULK1 complex (ULK1, FIP200, ATG13, ATG101). LAP, on the other hand, involves the formation of a single-membrane phagosome, which involves initiation complexes including UVRAG, Beclin1, and VPS34, as well as a unique regulator, Rubicon. Among them, the Rubicon molecule acts like a switch, and although Rubicon inhibits VPS34 activity during autophagy, it is required for VPS34 activity on LAPosomes ^[18].

NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2/gp91phox) was first discovered in phagocytes. NADPH oxidase consists of the common integral membrane protein subunit p22^phox, the catalytic subunit gp91^phox, the regulatory subunits p47^phox, p40^phox, and p67^phox, and the small GTPase Rac. The gp91^phox and p22^phox subunits are mainly located on the plasma membrane ^[19]. The C-terminus of p22^phox has a proline-rich region. The production of ROS requires the transfer of several other subunits (p47^phox, p40^phox, p67^phox, and Rac) in the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane, following binding to gp91^phox and p22^phox. During LAP, Rubicon directly interacts with the p22^phox subunit of NOX2 through its serine-rich region (amino acids 567–625) to stabilize the NOX2 complex for optimal and sustained ROS production, in which the NOX2 subunit p40^phox binding to PI3P is also the result of the action of Rubicon ^[20]. Therefore, the stabilization of NOX2 and the generation of ROS are very important for LC3 lipidation during the subsequent LAP process and are also required for LAP formation ^[21]. LC3 plays a key role in the elongation and maturation of the autophagosome membrane. LC3 lipidation requires two ubiquitin-like conjugation systems, including the ATG5-ATG12 conjugation system and the LC3-phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) conjugation system on the surface of the phagosome. The first ubiquitin-like conjugation system activates ATG12 for ATG7, which can be linked to ATG10. ATG12 binds to ATG5 and further binds to ATG16L1 to form a multimeric ATG5–ATG12–ATG16L1 complex. The second ubiquitin-like conjugation system is the cleavage of cytoplasmic LC3 by ATG4 to generate LC3-I, which is activated by ATG7, and then covalently linked to PE on the membrane surface to convert LC3-I to lipidated LC3-II. The processed LC3-II is a marker for phagophores and phagosomes to mature into autophagosomes and LAPosomes, respectively. It is also a necessary condition for the autophagosome and LAPosome to fuse with the lysosome and degrade pathogens after fusion with the lysosome. While both autophagy and LAP are characterized by LC3-II binding to membranes, LC3-II is recruited to different types of membranes, which is one of the most striking ultrastructural differences that distinguish LAPosomes from autophagosomes.

2. Biological Functions of LAP

During bacterial infection, host cells engulf invading bacteria through a single-membrane vesicle called a “phagosome”. LC3 is recruited to the bacteria-containing phagosomal membrane to form an LC3-modified vesicle called a LAPosome. The LAPosome fuses with lysosomes to degrade bacteria. LAP begins with phagocytosis, transports captured pathogens to lysosomes for degradation, and enhances pathogen-killing efficiency through the LAPosome. LAP enhances innate immune cells’ ability to kill bacteria. LAP can transport bacteria in phagocytic vesicles to transmembrane pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) oriented toward the phagosomal lumen or cytosolic PRRs located within the host-cell cytosol for more efficient recognition and killing ^[22]. In addition, LAP promotes phagosome–lysosome fusion, enhances the degradation of bacteria, and plays an immunomodulatory role in antimicrobial immunity ^[23]^[24]^[25]. To survive in host cells, bacteria have also evolved strategies to evade targeted killing and degradation by LAP.

3. LAP and Bacterial Infection

The LAPosome fuses with lysosomes to degrade bacteria, but bacteria have evolved survival mechanisms to prevent this fusion process. The main mechanisms include blocking or destroying the production of phagosomes and impairing the fusion of phagosomes with lysosomes. Each of these two main methods creates an ideal environment for bacteria to replicate and survive in the body. Different bacteria have evolved various strategies to deal with LAP-promoted killing. Several typical strategies of bacteria in dealing with LAP are discussed below (Figure 3, Table 1).

Figure 3. Interactions of bacteria with LAP. This figure shows the correlation between several bacteria and LAP (black arrows). Green arrows indicate inhibition. Dotted arrows represent interactions that are not yet confirmed. L. monocytogenes uses its own virulence factors, PLCA/B and ActA, to protect it from being recognized, killed, and degraded by autophagy targets. PINCA did not play a substantial role in anti-L. monocytogenes and did not inhibit bacterial growth. L. monocytogenes promotes the uptake of mtCa²⁺ by regulating MCU to enhance PDH activity, thereby inducing the production of acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA acetylates Rubicon, resulting in decreased Rubicon content and inhibiting the interaction of Rubicon with the NOX2 complex, thereby inhibiting the formation of LAP. The interaction of L. monocytogenes with Mac-1 induces ASMase-mediated changes in membrane lipid composition and converts sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphorylated choline. The deletion of the PhoP and PurA virulence factors in S. typhimurium increased and decreased LC3 recruitment, respectively, and SsrB is part of the bacterial regulatory system that controls the expression of SPI2 effector molecules and is required for the maintenance of Salmonella-containing vacuoles (SCV). However, Rubicon knockout did not affect the survival of mutant SsrB strains, possibly because SPI2 is related to bacterial replication in vivo. CpsA acts upstream of NOX2 by blocking the recruitment of NOX2 to the phagosome; M. tuberculosis also secretes a virulence factor called NdkA. The presence of NdkA reduces the uptake of p67^phox and Rac1 to the phagosome and interferes with NADPH oxidation. The enzyme complex generates ROS and may destroy LAP. LAP binds LC3 to LdCVs in a Dot/Icm T4SS-dependent manner, leading to bacterial degradation, a process that requires TLR2. L. pneumophila can irreversibly uncouple the conjugation function of LC3 and phosphatidylethanolamine through RavZ, and can also block LAP induced by its infection. BopA, an important effector protein encoded by the TTSS3 gene of B. pseudomallei, inhibits LC3 recruitment. The high and low expression of VAMP3 in Y. pseudotuberculosis can localize in autophagic vesicles of monolayer and bilayer membranes, respectively. VAMP7 inhibits the maturation of YCVs and disrupts LAP and autophagy, but the mechanism remains unclear. The spread of S. flexneri is dependent on the function of T3SS. IcsB blocks the recruitment of LC3 by blocking the binding of the ATG5 to the surface protein VirG of S. flexneri. IcsB is also thought to recruit the actin-associated protein TOCA-1, promoting cell-to-cell spread. Likewise, VirA prevents LC3 recruitment to S. flexneri-containing vesicles. Specifically, the inactivation of Rab1 by VirA inhibits the effect of ER on GA transport, but it remains unclear how Rab1 is involved in LC3 recruitment to S. flexneri-containing vacuoles. S. aureus was found to establish an intracellular niche in neutrophils, the mechanism of which has not been elucidated. S. pneumoniae-induced LC3 recruitment is dependent on pneumolysin.
