Here, using a single-cell ribonucleic acid sequencing approach, we identified a core set of genes associated with increased IL-22 production by ILC3. Among these genes, programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), extensively studied in the context of cancer and chronic infection, was constitutively expressed on a subset of ILC3. These cells, found in the crypt of the small intestine and colon, displayed superior capacity to produce IL-22.

Using a multi-platform water environment method as an SD model, we found that SD leads to disturbances of corneal proliferative, sensory, and immune homeostasis as well as excessive inflammatory response and delayed repair after corneal abrasion by inducing hyperactivation of the sympathetic nervous system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Our earlier work demonstrated that the marginal zone and B1 cell-specific protein (MZB1) promotes gut IgA secretion and its absence results in pronounced dextran sulfate sodium salt (DSS)-induced colitis.

A prime-boost intramuscular immunization with OMV-PspA induced both memory adaptive and innate immune responses in vaccinated mice, reduced the viral and bacterial burden, and provided complete protection against influenza-mediated secondary Spn infection. Also, the OMV-PspA immunization afforded significant cross-protection against the secondary Spn A66.1 infection and long-term protection against the secondary Spn D39 challenge. Our study implies that an OMV vaccine delivering Spn antigens can be a new promising pneumococcal vaccine candidate.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":18877,"journal":{"name":"Mucosal Immunology","volume":"17 2","pages":"Pages 169-181"},"PeriodicalIF":8.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1933021924000023/pdfft?md5=580daefb21e141765e4fc122d099a1de&pid=1-s2.0-S1933021924000023-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139432672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
