Their biological effects are diverse, including antiviral, cell growth-inhibiting, and antitumor effects. The main subclasses of interferons include type-I (e.g., IFN-α and IFN-β) and type-II (IFN-γ), which activate intracellular signals by binding to type-I and type-II IFN receptors, respectively. We have previously shown that when macrophages are treated with supersulfide donors, which have polysulfide structures in which three or more sulfur atoms are linked within the molecules, IFN-β-induced cellular responses, including signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) phosphorylation and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression, were strongly suppressed. However, the subfamily specificity of the suppression of IFN signals by supersulfides and the mechanism of this suppression are unknown. This study demonstrated that supersulfide donor N-acetyl-L-cysteine tetrasulfide (NAC-S2) can inhibit IFN signaling in macrophages stimulated not only with IFN-α/β but also with IFN-γ. Our data suggest that NAC-S2 blocks phosphorylation of Janus kinases (JAKs), thereby contributes to the inhibition of phosphorylation of STAT1. Under the current experimental conditions, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donor NaHS failed to inhibit IFN signaling. Similar to NAC-S2, carbohydrate-based supersulfide donor thioglucose tetrasulfide (TGS4) was capable of strongly inhibiting tumor necrosis factor-αproduction, iNOS expression, and nitric oxide production from macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. Further understanding of molecular mechanisms how supersulfide donors exhibit their inhibitory actions towards JAK/STAT signaling is necessary basis for development of supersulfide-based therapeutic strategy against autoimmune disorders with dysregulated IFN signaling.","PeriodicalId":13743,"journal":{"name":"International immunology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141426720","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}

Previous studies have shown that IL-27 is produced during the early acute phase of Plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi AS (Pcc) infection and inhibits the development of Th1-type memory CD4+ T cells. However, whether IL-27 acts directly on its receptor on Plasmodium-specific CD4+ T cells or indirectly via its receptor on other immune cells remains unclear. We aimed to determine the role of IL-27 receptor signaling in different immune cell types in regulating the generation and phenotype of memory CD4+ T cells during Plasmodium infection. We utilized Plasmodium-specific TCR transgenic mice, PbT-II, and Il27rα-/- mice to assess the direct and indirect effects of IL-27 signaling on memory CD4+ T-cell generation. Mice were transferred with PbT-II or Il27rα-/- PbT-II cells and infected with Pcc. Conditional knockout mice lacking the IL-27 receptor in T cells or dendritic cells were employed to discern the specific immune cell types involved in IL-27 receptor signaling. High levels of memory in PbT-II cells with Th1-shift occurred only when both PbT-II and host cells lacked the IL-27 receptor, suggesting the predominant inhibitory role of IL-27 signaling in both cell types. Furthermore, IL-27 receptor signaling in T cells limited the number of memory CD4+ T cells, while signaling in both T and dendritic cells contributed to the Th1 dominance of memory CD4+ T cells. These findings underscore the complex cytokine signaling network regulating memory CD4+ T cells during Plasmodium infection.","PeriodicalId":13743,"journal":{"name":"International immunology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141418843","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}

Disruption of the intestinal barrier integrity is a leading cause of various gastrointestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease. The homeostasis of the intestinal barrier is tightly regulated by crosstalk between gut microbes and the immune system; however, the implication of the immune system on the imbalance of gut microbes that disrupts barrier integrity remains to be fully elucidated. An inhibitory immunoglobulin-like receptor, Allergin-1, is expressed on mast cells and dendritic cells and inhibits Toll-like receptor (TLR)-2 and TLR-4 signaling in these cells. Since TLRs are major sensors of microbiota and are involved in local epithelial homeostasis, we investigated the role of Allergin-1 in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Allergin-1-deficient (Milr1-/-) mice exhibited more severe dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis than did wild-type (WT) mice. Milr1-/- mice showed an enhanced intestinal permeability compared with WT mice even before DSS administration. Treatment of Milr1-/- mice with neomycin, but not ampicillin, restored intestinal barrier integrity. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis demonstrated that Bifidobacterium pseudolongum was the dominant bacterium in Milr1-/- mice after treatment with ampicillin. Although the transfer of B. pseudolongum to germ-free WT mice had no effect on intestinal permeability, its transfer into ampicillin-treated WT mice enhanced intestinal permeability. These results demonstrated that Allergin-1 deficiency enhanced intestinal dysbiosis with expanded B. pseudolongum, which contributes to intestinal barrier dysfunction in collaboration with neomycin-sensitive and ampicillin-resistant microbiota.","PeriodicalId":13743,"journal":{"name":"International immunology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140039262","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}

It underscores the role of the monocyte-macrophage lineage in granuloma formation and maintenance, emphasizing the adaptability of these cells to environmental cues and inflammatory stimuli. Key to the discussion is the macrophage polarization influenced by various cytokines, with a detailed exploration of the metabolic shifts towards glycolysis under hypoxic conditions and the utilization of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) for crucial biosynthetic processes. Significant attention is given to the metabolism of L-arginine in macrophages and its impact on immune response and granuloma function. The review also highlights the role of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling in macrophage differentiation and its implications in granulomatous diseases. Discoveries such as elevated PPP activity in granuloma-associated macrophages and the protective role of NADPH against oxidative stress offer novel insights into granuloma biology. The review concludes by suggesting potential therapeutic targets within these metabolic pathways to modulate granuloma formation and function, proposing new treatment avenues for conditions characterized by chronic inflammation and granuloma formation. This work contributes significantly to the understanding of immune regulation and chronic inflammation, presenting avenues for future research and therapy in granulomatous diseases.","PeriodicalId":13743,"journal":{"name":"International immunology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140027948","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}

Healthy donor-derived T cells usually proliferate better than patients-derived T cells and are precious resources to generate off-the-shelf CAR-T cells. However, relatively little is known about the determinants that affect the efficient generation of CAR-T cells from healthy donor-derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) compared with those from the patients' own PBMCs. We here examined the efficiency of CAR-T cell generation from multiple healthy donor samples and analyzed its association with the phenotypic features of the starting peripheral blood T cells. We found that CD62L expression levels within CD8+ T cells were significantly correlated with CAR-T cell expansion. Moreover, high CD62L expression within naïve T cells was associated with the efficient expansion of T cells with a stem cell-like memory phenotype, an indicator of high-quality infusion products. Intriguingly, genetic disruption of CD62L significantly impaired CAR-T cell proliferation and cytokine production upon antigen stimulation. Conversely, ectopic expression of a shedding-resistant CD62L mutant augmented CAR-T cell effector functions compared to unmodified CAR-T cells, resulting in improved antitumor activity in vivo. Collectively, we identified the surface expression of CD62L as a concise indicator of potent T-cell proliferation. CD62L expression is also associated with the functional properties of CAR-T cells.

Little is known about the effect of malaria on the bone marrow stromal cells that govern the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche. In this study, we demonstrate that the mesenchymal stromal CXCL12-abundant reticular (CAR) cell population is reduced during acute malaria infection. The reduction of CXCL12 and interleukin-7 signals in the bone marrow impairs the lymphopoietic niche, leading to the depletion of common lymphoid progenitors, B cell progenitors, and mature B cells, including plasma cells in the bone marrow. We found that interferon-γ (IFNγ) is responsible for the upregulation of Sca1 on CAR cells, yet the decline in CAR cell and B cell populations in the bone marrow is IFNγ-independent. In contrast to the decline in B cell populations, HSCs and multipotent progenitors increased with the expansion of myelopoiesis and erythropoiesis, indicating a bias in the differentiation of multipotent progenitors during malaria infection.

Here, we report that IELs in the small intestine acquire the ability to rapidly produce IFN-γ at two distinct life stages. TCRαβ+ IELs (αβIELs) started producing IFN-γ at 4 weeks of age, within 1 week after weaning. In contrast, TCRγδ+ IELs (γδIELs) started producing IFN-γ at 7 weeks of age. In mice lacking Eγ4, an enhancer of the TCRγ locus (Eγ4-/- mice), Thy-1+ Vγ5+ γδIELs, a major subpopulation of γδIELs, were specifically reduced and their ability to produce IFN-γ was severely impaired, whereas Vγ2+ γδIELs normally produced IFN-γ. In Eγ4-/- mice, TCR expression levels were reduced in Vγ5+ γδIEL precursors in the thymus but unchanged in the Vγ5+ IELs. Nevertheless, TCR responsiveness in Vγ5+ γδIELs was impaired in Eγ4-/- mice, suggesting that the TCR signal received in the thymus may determine TCR responsiveness and the ability to produce IFN-γ in the gut.
