Our study demonstrated that TGF-β-TRAP potentiates the efficacy of anti-programmed cell death 1 (anti-PD-1) in a PDAC orthotopic murine model with liver metastasis tropism, significantly reducing liver metastases. We further demonstrated the heterogeneous response of cytotoxic effector T cells to combination TGF-β-TRAP and anti-PD-1 treatment across several tumor models. Single-nuclear RNA sequencing suggested that TGF-β-TRAP modulates cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) heterogeneity and suppresses neutrophil degranulation and CD4+ T cell response to neutrophil degranulation. Ligand-receptor analysis indicated that TGF-β-TRAP may modulate the CCL5/CCR5 axis as well as costimulatory and checkpoint signaling from CAFs and myeloid cells. Notably, the most highly expressed ligands of CCR5 shifted from the immunosuppressive CCL5 to CCL7 and CCL8, which may mediate the immune agonist activity of CCR5 following TGF-β-TRAP and anti-PD-1 combination treatment.

Here, we discovered a reduction of S1P in degenerated and aging intervertebral discs, primarily regulated by DNA methylation. Furthermore, through drug treatment and siRNA-mediated S1P knockdown, nucleus pulposus cells were more prone to exhibit degenerative and aging phenotypes. Conditional KO of S1P in mice resulted in spinal developmental abnormalities and premature aging. Mechanistically, S1P deficiency impeded COP II-mediated transport vesicle formation, which leads to protein retention in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and subsequently ER distension. ER distension increased the contact between the ER and mitochondria, disrupting ER-to-mitochondria calcium flow and resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolism disturbance. Finally, using 2-APB to inhibit calcium ion channels and the senolytic drug dasatinib and quercetin (D + Q) partially rescued the aging and degenerative phenotypes caused by S1P deficiency.

We demonstrated that administering TPOm 24 hours before irradiation decreased histologic lung injury score, apoptosis, vascular permeability, expression of proinflammatory cytokines, and neutrophil infiltration in the lungs of mice 2 weeks after WTI.

Seven months after WTI, TPOm-treated lung exhibited less collagen deposition and expression of MMP-9, TIMP-1, IL-6, TGF-β, and p21. Moreover, TPOm improved lung vascular structure, lung density, and respiration rate, leading to a prolonged survival time after WTI.
