Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) are crucial in the innate host defense by their ability to rapidly accumulate in inflamed tissues and clear a site of infection from microbial pathogens by their potent effector mechanisms. The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)-1 is a recently described activating receptor on PMN with an important role in inflammation. However, the effects of TREM-1 stimulation on a cellular level remain to be further defined. To characterize TREM-1-mediated activation of human PMN, we evaluated the effect of receptor ligation on PMN effector functions. Activation via TREM-1 induces immediate degranulation of neutrophilic granules resulting in the release of IL-8, respiratory burst, and phagocytosis. TREM-1 ligation synergizes with the activation by the Toll-like receptors (TLR) ligands LPS, Pam3Cys, and R-848. In contrast, no synergy between TREM-1- and TLR-mediated stimulation was observed concerning PMN survival, whereas TLR-mediated stimuli protect PMN from apoptosis, concurrent TREM-1 activation neutralizes these anti-apoptotic effects. These results give a new perspective for the regulation of neutrophil inflammatory responses emphasizing the importance of TREM-1 in innate immunity.
