A deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving BC progression and metastasis is essential for the development of effective therapeutic strategies. While traditional chemokine receptors are well known for their roles in immune cell migration and positioning, atypical chemokine receptors (ACKRs) have recently gained attention as key modulators in cancer-related processes. Unlike conventional receptors, ACKRs-comprising ACKR1, ACKR2, ACKR3, and ACKR4-primarily function by scavenging chemokines, regulating their availability, and modulating receptor signaling in a ligand-independent manner. This review aims to elucidate the roles of ACKRs in BC, focusing on their influence on the tumor microenvironment (TME), cancer cell proliferation, survival, metastasis, and angiogenesis. Additionally, we will explore the potential of ACKRs as diagnostic and prognostic markers and assess their viability as therapeutic targets. By synthesizing recent research findings and highlighting future research directions, this review seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the significance of ACKRs in BC and underscore the need for continued investigation into their therapeutic potential.","PeriodicalId":16261,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Interferon and Cytokine Research","volume":" ","pages":"43-52"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142622232","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 authors show that the ability of SOCS1 to inhibit cytokine signaling is dose- and time-dependent.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often involves oxidative stress-related pathways, making the modulation of ferroptosis a promising therapeutic avenue. We employed a combination of several techniques to explore how formononetin regulates the retinoid X receptor alpha/peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (RXRA/PPARG) pathway to inhibit ferroptosis in Fetal Human Colonic Epithelial Cells (FHC) induced by RSL3. These techniques included propidium iodide staining, the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), Fe2+, malondialdehyde (MDA), and ferroptosis-inhibitory proteins glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and FTH analysis, Western blot analysis, and gene silencing. Our results demonstrate that formononetin significantly mitigated RSL3-induced ferroptosis as evidenced by reduced cellular levels of ROS, Fe2+, and MDA, alongside an increased expression of GPX4 and FTH. Silencing the RXRA gene reverses the protective effects of formononetin, highlighting that formononetin inhibits ferroptosis in FHC by upregulating the levels of RXRA. These findings provide new molecular targets for potential therapeutic intervention in IBD, suggesting that upregulating RXRA and PPARG expression via formononetin could be a viable strategy to mitigate ferroptosis-associated cellular damage.

The transfection efficiency of STING overexpression plasmid and small interfering RNA against IRF3 (siIRF3) was examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).

A transplanted tumor mouse model was used for in vivo experiments. After cyclic diadenyl monophosphate (CDA; STING agonist) treatment, changes in MDSC differentiation and protein expression of the IRF3/NF-κB axis in transplanted tumors were verified by immunohistochemical staining, qRT-PCR, and Western blot. Results: Coculture of A9 cells and BMCs promoted MDSC differentiation, inhibited activation of IRF3/NF-κB signal in A9 cells, and boosted nuclear translocation of NF-κB. However, after the upregulation of STING, IRF3/NF-κB signal was activated, while MDSC differentiation and nuclear translocation of NF-κB were inhibited. SiIRF3 reversed the effects of STING overexpression. In vivo, CDA dampened MDSC differentiation and promoted protein expression of the IRF3/NF-κB axis.

Remarkably, Cmklr1 gene ablation intensified the pro-inflammatory response in the serum (especially IFN-γ), testes, and epididymis of epididymo-orchitis models. Furthermore, Cmklr1 deficiency uniquely induced structural alterations within the epididymis, which is absent in the WT model. This genetic manipulation also exacerbated the decline in serum testosterone and E2 levels and testicular steroid synthase activity. While chemerin levels were significantly diminished in WT epididymo-orchitis models, Cmklr1 knockout had no discernible effect on chemerin expression in the model. In addition, a noteworthy observation was the elevation of the serum low density lipoprotein/high density lipoprotein (LDL/HDL) ratio in Cmklr1-deficient mice.
