Xenotransplantation, the use of animals as organ donors, provides an opportunity to alleviate this challenge. Pigs are widely accepted as the ideal organ donor, but humans and nonhuman primates have strong humoral immune responses to porcine tissue. Although carbohydrate xenoantigens have been studied intensively, the primate Ab response also targets class I and class II swine leukocyte Ags (SLAs). Human Abs that recognize HLAs can cross-react with SLA molecules because epitopes can be shared across species. However, ∼15% of people may also exhibit Abs toward class II SLAs despite lacking Abs that also recognize class II HLAs. Here, we extend these studies to better understand human Ab responses toward class I SLAs. When tested against a panel of 18 unique class I SLA proteins, 14 of 52 sera samples collected from patients in need of an organ transplant contained Abs that bound class I SLAs. Class I SLA-reactive sera may contain IgM only, IgG, only, or IgM and IgG capable of recognizing the pig proteins.

From astounding advances in fundamental knowledge to groundbreaking immunotherapeutic offerings, immunology has carved out an enviable niche for itself in basic science and clinical medicine. The need and the vital importance of appropriate education, training, and certification in clinical immunology was recognized by the World Health Organization as far back as 1972. In the United States, Ph.D. scientists with board certification in medical laboratory immunology have served as directors of high-complexity Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments- and College of American Pathologists-certified clinical immunology laboratories since 1977. From 1977 to 2017, board certification for medical laboratory immunology was administered by the American Society for Microbiology through the American Board of Medical Laboratory Immunology examination. The American Board of Medical Laboratory Immunology examination was phased out in 2017, and in the fall of 2019, the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) Board of Certification (BOC) examination committee took on the responsibility of developing a new doctoral-level certification examination for medical laboratory immunology. This transition to the ASCP BOC represents a well-deserved and much-needed recognition of the rapid advances in and the highly specialized nature of medical laboratory immunology and its ever-increasing relevance to patient care. This new ASCP BOC certification is called the Diplomate in Medical Laboratory Immunology, and, as of April 1, 2023, it is now available to potential examinees.

Perturbations in α-ketoglutarate levels can elicit metabolic reprogramming through 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (2-ODDGs), leading to stabilization of the transcription factor HIF-1α. HIF1-α activation has been reported to promote antiviral mechanisms against SARS-CoV-2 through direct regulation of ACE2 expression (a receptor required for viral entry). However, given the numerous pathways HIF-1α serves to regulate it is possible that there are other undefined metabolic mechanisms contributing to the pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 independent of ACE2 downregulation. In this study, we used in vitro and in vivo models in which HIF-1α modulation of ACE2 expression was negated, allowing for isolated characterization of the host metabolic response within SARS-CoV-2 disease pathogenesis. We demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 infection limited stabilization of HIF-1α and associated mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming by maintaining activity of the 2-ODDG prolyl hydroxylases. Inhibition of 2-ODDGs with dimethyloxalylglycine promoted HIF-1α stabilization following SARS-CoV-2 infection, and significantly increased survival among SARS-CoV-2-infected mice compared with vehicle controls. However, unlike previous reports, the mechanism by which activation of HIF-1α responses contributed to survival was not through impairment of viral replication. Rather, dimethyloxalylglycine treatment facilitated direct effects on host metabolism including increased glycolysis and resolution of dysregulated pools of metabolites, which correlated with reduced morbidity. Taken together, these data identify (to our knowledge) a novel function of α-ketoglutarate-sensing platforms, including those responsible for HIF-1α stabilization, in the resolution of SARS-CoV-2 infection and support targeting these metabolic nodes as a viable therapeutic strategy to limit disease severity during infection.</p>","PeriodicalId":13448,"journal":{"name":"ImmunoHorizons","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10587500/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9862709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SSA/Ro-52 Ags were used to develop what is, to our knowledge, a novel quantitative electrochemical-based immunoassay: the electric field-induced release and measurement (EFIRM) platform. The clinical utility was determined by measuring salivary anti-SSA/Ro-52 autoantibodies in patients with pSS and sicca (n = 34), patients without pSS with sicca (n = 35), and healthy subjects (n = 41).
