Turning up the heat of such a cold TME via triggering innate immunity is now of increasing interest to restore immune-surveillance. Retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs) are cytosolic innate-sensors that can detect exogenous RNAs and induce type-I interferons and other pro-inflammatory signaling. RIG-I activation is suggested to be a valuable addition to the treatment approaches for several cancers. However, the knowledge about RIG-I signaling in PCa remains elusive. The present study evaluated the expression of two important RLRs, RIG-I and melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5), along with their downstream partners, mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) and ERA G-protein-like 1 (ERAL1), during PCa progression in the transgenic adenocarcinoma of mouse prostate (TRAMP) model. The early stage of PCa revealed a significant increment in the expression of RLRs but not MAVS. However, the advanced stage showed downregulated RLR signaling. Further, the therapeutic implication of 5'ppp-dsRNA, a synthetic RIG-I agonist and Bcl2 gene silencer, has been investigated in vitro and in vivo. Intra-tumoral delivery of 5'ppp-dsRNA regressed tumor growth via triggering tumor cell apoptosis, immunomodulation, and inducing phagocytic \"eat me\" signals. These findings highlight that, for the first time, RIG-I activation and Bcl-2 silencing with 5'ppp-dsRNA can serve as a potent tumor-suppressor strategy in PCa and has a significant clinical implication in transforming a \"cold\" TME into an immunogenic \"hot\" TME of PCa.</p>","PeriodicalId":13743,"journal":{"name":"International immunology","volume":" ","pages":"109-129"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142390363","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}

Treg plasticity was evaluated by in vitro differentiation assays. The immunosuppressive activities of Tregs and Th17-like Tregs were assessed in an adoptive transfer assay.

Verteporfin-mediated inhibition of YAP1 activity enhanced Th17-like Treg generation, whereas IBS008739-induced TAZ activation did not affect Th17-like Treg generation. Besides, verteporfin enhanced while IBS008739 suppressed the differentiation of Th17-like Tregs into Th17 cells. Furthermore, YAP1 activated STAT5 signaling in Tregs, whereas YAP1 and TAZ activated STAT3 and STAT5 signaling in Th17-like Tregs. Compared with Tregs, Th17-like Tregs were less efficacious in ameliorating colitis. Therefore, YAP1 suppressed Treg differentiation into Th17-like Tregs.

Tfh cells express their signature transcription factor BCL6, interleukin (IL)-21, and surface molecules including inducible T cell costimulator (ICOS), programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), and C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 5 (CXCR5). Migration of Tfh cells to B cell follicles largely depends on the CXCR5 expression induced by interactions with antigen-presenting dendritic cells in the T cell area. How Tfh cells acquire sufficient levels of CXCR5 expression, however, has remained unclear. Using our in vitro culture system to generate CXCR5low Tfh-like cells from naive CD4+ T cells with IL-6 in the absence of other cell types, we found that the active form of vitamin D, calcitriol, markedly enhanced CXCR5 expression after the release from persistent T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation. CH-223191, an aryl hydrocarbon receptor antagonist, further enhanced CXCR5 expression. IL-12 but not IL-4, in place of IL-6, also supported calcitriol to enhance CXCR5 expression even before the release from TCR stimulation, whereas the cell viability sharply decreased after the release. The Tfh-like cells generated with IL-6 and calcitriol exhibited chemotaxis toward C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13), expressed IL-21, and helped B cells to produce IgG antibodies in vitro more efficiently than Tfh-like cells generated without added calcitriol. Calcitriol injections into antigen-primed mice increased the proportion of CXCR5+PD-1+CD4+ cells in their lymphoid organs, and enhanced T cell entry into B cell follicles.

The search for therapeutic targets to control chronic inflammation often involves narrowing down the various molecules associated with pathology that have been discovered by various omics analyses. Herein, a different approach to identify therapeutic targets against chronic inflammation is proposed and one such target is discussed as an example. In chronically inflamed tissues, a large number of cells receive diverse proinflammatory signals, the intracellular signals are intricately integrated, and complicated intercellular interactions are orchestrated. This review focuses on effectively blocking this chaotic inflammatory signaling network via the endolysosomal system, which acts as a cellular signaling hub. In endolysosomes, the inflammatory signals mediated by pathogen sensors, such as Toll-like receptors, and the signals from nutrient and metabolic pathways are integrally regulated. Disruption of endolysosome signaling results in a strong anti-inflammatory effect by disrupting various signaling pathways, including pathogen sensor-mediated signals, in multiple immune cells. The endolysosome-resident amino acid transporter, solute carrier family 15 member 4 (SLC15A4), which plays an important role in the regulation of endolysosome-mediated signals, is a promising therapeutic target for several inflammatory diseases, including autoimmune diseases. The mechanisms by which SLC15A4 regulates inflammatory responses may provide a proof of concept for the efficacy of therapeutic strategies targeting immune cell endolysosomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":13743,"journal":{"name":"International immunology","volume":" ","pages":"15-24"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11587895/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141467800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the interaction between DCs and Treg cells, DC-Treg crosstalk, could contribute to controlling health and disease. We recently found that unique DC-Treg crosstalk plays a role in several conditions. First, Treg cells are expanded in ultraviolet B (UVB)-exposed skin by interacting with DCs, and the UVB-expanded Treg cells have a healing function. Second, manipulating DC-Treg crosstalk can induce effective acquired immune responses against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 antigens without adjuvants.

Their biological effects are diverse, including antiviral, cell growth-inhibiting, and antitumour effects. The main subclasses of IFNs 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 supersulphide donors, which have polysulphide structures in which three or more sulphur 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 supersulphides and the mechanism of this suppression are unknown. This study demonstrated that supersulphide donor N-acetyl-L-cysteine tetrasulphide (NAC-S2) can inhibit IFN signalling 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 contributing to the inhibition of phosphorylation of STAT1. Under the current experimental conditions, the hydrogen sulphide (H2S) donor NaHS failed to inhibit IFN signalling. Similar to NAC-S2, the carbohydrate-based supersulphide donor thioglucose tetrasulphide (TGS4) was capable of strongly inhibiting tumour necrosis factor-α production, iNOS expression, and nitric oxide production from macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide.
