The identification of novel approaches to tackle this step is instrumental for the development of therapies for the management of COVID-19 and other diseases with a similar mechanism of infection. Thalidomide, a drug sadly known for its teratogenic effects, has potent immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties. Treatment with this drug has been shown to improve the immune functions of COVID-19 patients and proposed for the management of COVID-19 in clinical practice through drug repositioning. Here, we investigated the molecular details linking thalidomide to ACE2 and COVID-19, showing that in conditions mimicking SARS-CoV-2-associated cytokine storm, the transcription factor ΔNp63α and ACE2 are stabilized, and IL-8 production is increased. In such conditions, we found p63 to bind to and regulate the expression of the <i>ACE2</i> gene. We previously showed that ΔNp63α is degraded upon thalidomide treatment and now found that treatment with this drug—or with its analogue lenalidomide—downregulates ACE2 in a p63-dependent manner. Finally, we found that thalidomide treatment reduces in vitro infection by pseudo-SARS-CoV-2, a baculovirus pseudotyped with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Overall, we propose the dual effect of thalidomide in reducing SARS-CoV-2 viral re-entry and inflammation through p63 degradation to weaken SARS-CoV-2 entry into host cells and mitigate lung inflammation, making it a valuable option in clinical management of COVID-19.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Key messages</h3>\u0000<ul>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Thalidomide treatment results in p63-dependent ACE2 downregulation.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>ACE2 is a p63 transcriptional target.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Thalidomide reduces the “cytokine storm” associated to COVID-19.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Thalidomide prevents viral re-entry of SARS-CoV-2 by p63-dependent ACE2 downregulation.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Thalidomide is a modulator of SARS-CoV-2 or other ACE2-dependent infections.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>ACE2 is modulated by a pharmacological substance.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000</ul>","PeriodicalId":16341,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142265384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This gene encodes the σ1A protein, which is a subunit of the adaptor protein complex 1 (AP-1), a key component of the intracellular protein trafficking machinery. Previous work identified three <i>AP1S1</i> nonsense, frameshift and splice-site variants in MEDNIK patients predicted to encode truncated σ1A proteins, with consequent AP-1 dysfunction. However, two <i>AP1S1</i> missense variants (c.269 T &gt; C and c.346G &gt; A) were recently reported in patients who presented with severe enteropathy but no additional symptoms of MEDNIK. This condition was described as a novel non-syndromic form of congenital diarrhea caused specifically by the <i>AP1S1</i> missense variants. In this study, we report two patients with the same c.269 T &gt; C variant, who, contrary to the previous cases, presented as complete MEDNIK syndrome. These data substantially revise the presentation of disorders associated with <i>AP1S1</i> gene variants and indicate that all the identified pathogenic <i>AP1S1</i> variants result in MEDNIK syndrome.

Senescent cells are also commonly present in many age-related diseases and in the cancer microenvironment. The escape of abnormal cells from immune surveillance indicates that there is some defect in the function of cytotoxic immune cells, e.g., CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. Recent studies have revealed that the expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) protein is abundantly increased in senescent cells. An increase in the amount of PD-L1 protein protects senescent cells from clearance by the PD-1 checkpoint receptor in cytotoxic immune cells. In fact, the activation of the PD-1 receptor suppresses the cytotoxic properties of CD8<sup>+</sup> T and NK cells, promoting a state of immunosenescence. The inhibitory PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint pathway acts in cooperation with immunosuppressive cells; for example, activation of PD-1 receptor can enhance the differentiation of regulatory T cells (Treg), myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), and M2 macrophages, whereas the cytokines secreted by immunosuppressive cells stimulate the expression of the immunosuppressive PD-L1 protein. Interestingly, many signaling pathways known to promote cellular senescence and the aging process are crucial stimulators of the expression of PD-L1 protein, e.g., epigenetic regulation, inflammatory mediators, mTOR-related signaling, cGAS-STING pathway, and AhR signaling. It seems that the inhibitory PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint axis has a crucial role in the accumulation of senescent cells and thus it promotes the aging process in tissues. Thus, the blockade of the PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint signaling might be a potential anti-aging senolytic therapy.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Key messages</h3>\u0000<ul>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Senescent cells accumulate within tissues during aging and age-related diseases.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Senescent cells are able to escape immune surveillance by cytotoxic immune cells.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Expression of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) markedly increases in senescent cells.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Age-related signaling stimulates the expression of PD-L1 protein in senescent cells.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000<li>\u0000<p>Inhibitory PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint pathway suppresses clearance of senescent cells.</p>\u0000</li>\u0000</ul>","PeriodicalId":16341,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Molecular Medicine","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140574869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study involved 62 pregnant women, all of whom had been vaccinated after reaching 24 weeks of gestation. To quantify post-vaccination plasma antibody titers, we employed binding antibody units (BAU) in accordance with the World Health Organization International Standard. Subsequently, we classified the study participants into three distinct BAU/mL categories: those with high titers (above 2000), medium titers (ranging from 1000 to 2000), and low titers (below 1000). Plasma metabolomic profiling was conducted using <sup>1</sup>H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and the obtained data were correlated with the categorized antibody titers. Notably, in pregnant women exhibiting elevated anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody titers, reduced plasma concentrations of acetate and urea were observed. A significant negative correlation between these compounds and antibody titers was also evident. An analysis of metabolomics pathways revealed significant inverse associations between antibody titers and four distinct amino acid metabolic pathways: (1) biosynthesis of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan; (2) biosynthesis of valine, leucine, and isoleucine; (3) phenylalanine metabolism; and (4) degradation of valine, leucine, and isoleucine. Additionally, an association between the synthesis and degradation pathways of ketone bodies was evident. In conclusion, we identified different metabolic pathways that underlie the diverse humoral responses triggered by COVID-19 mRNA vaccines during pregnancy.
