Different studies have reported the importance of IL-10 and Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) in the regulation of B cell class switching the production of immunoglobulin A (IgA); however, the underlying mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. The objective of this study was to investigate the TGF-β response during B stimulation of human B cells by IL-10. Pan B cells of healthy donors were negatively purified by a magnetic cell separation technique. B cells were cultured with multimeric CD40 ligand (mCD40L) and IL-10 for two and seven days. After harvesting in specific days, TGF-β receptor II and surface IgA expression was determined by flow cytometry, while IgA and TGF-β secretion was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. B cells endogenously expressed TGF-β receptor II and after 48 hours cultivation with mCD40L or mCD40L plus IL-10, both the expression of this receptor and the production of TGF-β were significantly increased. Notably, TGF-β levels following stimulation with mCD40L and IL-10 were higher than those produced by B cells stimulated with mCD40L alone. Furthermore, at day 7 and following IL-10 stimulation, there was a significant rise in the amount of IgA secretion by class-switched plasma cells, which was higher than stimulation with mCD40L alone. Our findings suggest that IL-10 can modulate TGF-β production and TGF-β receptor expression in mCD40-activated human B lymphocytes.</p>","PeriodicalId":11749,"journal":{"name":"European cytokine network","volume":"30 3","pages":"107-113"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1684/ecn.2019.0434","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37558854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

IL-33 is broadly expressed by multiple cell types such as fibroblasts, epithelial cells, and endothelial cells. As a strong inducer of type 2 helper T (Th2) cellular immune responses, IL-33 can significantly prolong allograft survival in organ transplantation partially via altering gene expression profiles and increasing frequency of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Nevertheless, the IL-33 signaling pathway and its underlying mechanisms remain largely undefined in transplant biology. This present mini-review summarizes recent advances in the studies concerning the IL-33/ST2 signaling pathway and the analysis of its biological function in the field transplantation. The literature points to a deleterious role of activation of the IL-33/ST2 signaling pathway, giving rise to ischemia/reperfusion, acute kidney injury and failure, acute heart rejection, as well as liver fibrosis. Under pro-inflammatory conditions, IL-33 expression is upregulated. Alteration of IL-33 levels has been suggested as a biomarker for predicting organ injury and ongoing allogeneic transplant outcome. These studies have deepened our understanding of immunobiological role of IL-33 and its receptor in organ transplantation. Modulation of the IL-33/ST2 signaling pathway might be utilized as a therapeutic target in the clinic.","PeriodicalId":11749,"journal":{"name":"European cytokine network","volume":"30 1","pages":"39 - 42"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1684/ecn.2019.0429","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47879611","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonetheless, the process of DNA internalization was not in direct relation to the presence of the above antigens on the surface of these cells. Dendritic cells were sorted into total and non-DNA-internalizing populations and cytokine production was analyzed at 24-48 hours post-DNA treatment. We show that massive secretion of cytokines by dendritic cells is associated with the dsDNA-internalizing subpopulation. A total pool of IFNmoDCs secrete pro-inflammatory “first-wave” cytokines (IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α) at both 24 and 48 hours time points. The anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-4 and IL-10 were found to be modestly induced, whereas GM-CSF, GCSF, and IFN-γ production was strongly induced. Treatment of moDCs with dsDNA results in the up-regulated transcription of IFN-α, IFN-β, IFN-γ, IL-8, IL-10, and VEGF by 6 hours.
