Amphotericin B deoxycholate (AmBd) has been used to treat invasive fungal infections for over 60 years and remains the primary clinical formulation currently available. Anaphylactoid reactions triggered by AmBd in the clinic have been documented. However, the molecular and cellular events contributing to these reactions have not been clearly elucidated to date. This study demonstrates that the human Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2) is the receptor that mediates these anaphylactoid responses. Molecular docking and cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA) indicate that AmBd exhibits potential affinity with MRGPRX2. In vitro, exposure to AmBd results in significant release of LAD2 mast cell granules and induces intracellular Ca²⁺ mobilization as well as activation of PLC-γ/IP3R and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. However, these phenomena are reduced in MRGPRX2-knockdown LAD2 cells. In vivo, AmBd triggers paw swelling and a rapid drop in core body temperature in wild-type (WT) mice. However, these reactions are almost absent in MRGPRB2 (the mouse homolog of MRGPRX2) knockout mice (MRGPRB2^MUT, MUT). The above results suggest that AmBd activates PLC-γ/IP3R and PI3K/AKT signaling via MRGPRX2 (in human LAD2 mast cells) or MRGPRB2 (in mice), leading to the release of mast cell granules and subsequent triggering of pseudo-allergic reactions. Taken together, this study clarifies the role of MRGPRX2 in triggering pseudo-allergic reactions to AmBd and suggests that MRGPRX2 could be a potential therapeutic target for controlling these reactions.</p>","PeriodicalId":13389,"journal":{"name":"Immunologic Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142119712","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}

As an alternative to ultrasound evaluation, cranial and extracranial arteries can be examined using FDG-PET or MRI. The aim of our study was to observe in a retrospective case series whether there is a correlation between biomarkers and imaging activity in a population of patients followed in real life with GCA treated with prednisone (PDN) and tocilizumab (TCZ). We retrospectively enrolled 68 patients with newly diagnosed GCA between January 2020 and September 2021, followed in real life, who were examined at the Rheumatology Unit of the San Giovanni di Dio Hospital, Florence, Italy. Patients were evaluated at T0-T3-T6-T12-T18-T24 for the following blood tests: ESR, CRP, fibrinogen, platelet count, serum amyloid A (SAA), IL-6, and circulating calprotectin (MRP). Ultrasound examination of the temporal arteries and axillary arteries was assessed at T0 within 7 days of starting treatment with high-dose glucocorticoids and subsequently at T3-T6-T12-T18-T24. A scale from 0 to 3 with semi-quantitative tools (SUV max) was assessed at T0-T12-T24. The evaluation of the correlation coefficient between laboratory and imaging variables has shown that SAA and MRP have the most powerful correlation with the PET score (0.523 and 0.64), and MRP also has an excellent correlation coefficient with the Halo score (0.658). The evaluation of the ROC curves shows for a PET score 3 and SAA values higher than 26 mg/L, sensitivity of 81.5% and specificity of 84.1%, and for a PET score 3 and MRP values higher than 2.3 mcg/mL, sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 76.8%. In this study, we demonstrated that SAA and MRP can be useful as promising tools to detect GCA activity.

RNA sequencing identified myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) as the most significant differentially expressed gene (DEG) between PMNs isolated from model and control mice.

The MLCK, MYOCD, or SRF knockdown increased contents of ROS, MDA, ferritin, and ferrous iron, and reduced levels of GSH and GPX4 in the PMNs. However, the MLCK overexpression restored ferroptosis resistance and activity of the PMNs, resulting in increased lung injury.

EBV is typically latent in B cells and the mechanism by which the EBV genome invades T/NK cells remains unknown. Recent studies have demonstrated that exosomes derived from EBV + B cells play a pivotal role in immunosuppressive microenvironment remodeling. Moreover, the existence of an immunosuppressive microenvironment is known to be critical in the development of EBV-T/NK-LPDs. Hence, we hypothesized that exosomes derived from EBV + B cells might promote the development of EBV-T/NK-LPDs by stimulating immune evasion. In this study, we utilized paraffin sections to clarify the STAT3/IL-10/PD-L1-associated immunosuppressive microenvironment in EBV-T/NK-LPDs. Further, we extracted exosomes from BL2009 (EBV + B cell lymphoma) and CA46 (EBV- B cell lymphoma) cell lines to co-culture with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) cell lines, to verify the changes in the above immune evasion pathway. The paraffin sections of EBV-T/NK-LPDs showed high-expression levels of IL-10/PD-L1, which might be related to the phosphorylation of STAT3. Exosomes derived from EBV + B cells could significantly activate the STAT3/IL-10/PD-L1 pathway. After being treated with C188-9, EBV + B cell-derived exosomes were no longer able to stimulate the expression of IL-10/PD-L1 in CTCL cells. EBV-T/NK-LPDs have a STAT3/IL-10/PD-L1 overactivation-associated immunosuppressive microenvironment. Our study elucidated part of this mechanism. Exosomes derived from EBV + B could induce phosphorylation of STAT3 in CTCL cells, leading to the overexpression of IL-10/PD-L1. Our findings might shed light on new directions for understanding immune evasion in EBV-T/NK-LPDs.</p>","PeriodicalId":13389,"journal":{"name":"Immunologic Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142008757","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}

The present study aimed to explore an extensive array of experiments to monitor the biological activities of 6-shogaol, a major component of ginger, and meglumine antimoniate (MA or Glucantime®). The binding affinity of 6-shogaol and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), a major enzyme catalyzing nitric oxide (NO) from L-arginine was the source for the docking outline. The inhibitory effects of 6-shogaol, MA, and mixture were assessed using colorimetric and macrophage assays. Antioxidant activity was inferred by UV-visible spectrophotometry. Variably expressed genes were measured by quantifiable real-time polymerase chain reaction. Apoptotic and cell cycle profiles were analyzed by flow cytometry. Moreover, a DNA fragmentation assay was performed by electrophoresis and antioxidant metabolites include superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and also nitric oxide (NO) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. 6-shogaol and MA exhibited multiple synergistic mechanisms of action. These included a remarkable leishmanicidal effect, potent antioxidative activity, a high safety index, upregulation of M1 macrophages/Th1-associated cytokines (including, γ-interferon, interleukin-12p40, tumor necrotizing factor-alpha, and associated iNOS), significant cell division capture at the sub-G0/G1 phase, a high profile of apoptosis through DNA fragmentation of the nuclear components. In addition, the activity of NO was substantially elevated by treated intracellular amastigotes, while SOD and CAT activities were significantly diminished.

This is a retrospective study analyzing the clinical characteristics of 45 consecutive patients with cardiac autonomic dysfunction and a persistently elevated total serum IgM. 93% of patients were female with a mean age of 32.7 years.
