Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins (siglecs) are predominately expressed on immune cells. They
are best known as regulators of cell signaling mediated by cytoplasmic tyrosine motifs and are increasingly
recognized as receptors for pathogens that bear sialic acid-containing glycans. Most siglec proteins undergo
endocytosis, an activity tied to their roles in cell signaling and innate immunity. Here, we investigate the
endocytic pathways of two siglec proteins, CD22 (Siglec-2), a regulator of B-cell signaling, and mouse eosin-
ophil Siglec-F, a member of the rapidly evolving CD33-related siglec subfamily that are expressed on cells of
the innate immune system. CD22 exhibits hallmarks of clathrin-mediated endocytosis and traffics to recycling
compartments, consistent with previous reports demonstrating its localization to clathrin domains. Like CD22,
Siglec-F mediates endocytosis of anti-Siglec-F and sialoside ligands, a function requiring intact tyrosine-
based motifs. In contrast, however, we find that Siglec-F endocytosis is clathrin and dynamin independent,
requires ADP ribosylation factor 6, and traffics to lysosomes. The results suggest that these two siglec
proteins have evolved distinct endocytic mechanisms consistent with roles in cell signaling and innate
immunity.

However, the cholesterol-se-questering agent nystatin, which inhibits endocytic pathwaysinvolving lipid rafts and caveolin, caused no inhibition at aconcentration of 50 g/ml (61). Inhibitors of actin cytoskeletonpolymerization (latrunculin A and jasplakinolide) and micro-tuble polymerization (nocodazole) showed partial (40 to 50%)inhibition. Although genistein (general tyrosine kinase inhibi-tor) strongly inhibited internalization (87% inhibition), little orno effect was observed by PP2 (Src family kinase inhibitor).
Amiloride, a macropinocytosis inhibitor, showed no inhibitoryeffect, rather increased the internalization of Siglec-F. In CHOcells, clathrin-mediated endocytosis is known to be insensitiveto treatments with CD and genistein, so inhibition of Siglec-F
endocytosis by these agents is further evidence that the processis clathrin independent (21). Similarly, caveolin-mediated en-docytosis is sensitive to the treatment with PP2 (21), so lack ofinhibition of Siglec-F endocytosis by PP2 supports a caveolin-independent mechanism.

GUIDELINES FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF THE INFANT WITH NEONATAL ABSTINENCE SYNDROME Background Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) is a syndrome of drug withdrawal observed in infants of mothers physically dependent on drugs. Also known as neonatal withdrawal syndrome or passive addiction, NAS is a condition resulting from exposure in utero or postnatal exposure to opioids and other illicit drugs. It is more common in infants born to opioid-dependent women than in infants born to women dependent on other drugs or alcohol.1
