As a rich store of F-actin, pyroptotic filopodia are recognized by dendritic cells through the F-actin receptor, CLEC9A (DNGR1).

How such stimuli access joints and trigger inflammation is unclear. Whole-mount synovial imaging revealed PV1+ fenestrated capillaries at the periphery of the synovium in the lining–sublining interface. Circulating ICs extravasated from these PV1+ capillaries, and nociceptor neurons and three distinct macrophage subsets formed a sentinel unit around them. Macrophages showed subset-specific responses to systemic IC challenge; LYVE1+CX3CR1+ macrophages orchestrated neutrophil recruitment and activated calcitonin gene-related peptide+ (CGRP+) nociceptor neurons via interleukin-1β. In contrast, major histocompatibility complex class II+CD11c+ (MHCII+CD11c+) and MHCII+CD11c– interstitial macrophages formed tight clusters around PV1+ capillaries in response to systemic immune stimuli, a feature enhanced by nociceptor-derived CGRP. Altogether, we identify the anatomical location of synovial PV1+ capillaries and subset-specific macrophage–nociceptor cross-talk that forms a blood–joint barrier protecting the synovium from circulating immune challenges. Why joints are highly responsive to systemic inflammation is unknown. Hasegawa et al. sought to address this question, developing a whole-mount imaging system of the entire synovium to profile the vascular, neuronal and immune components.","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"25 12","pages":"2270-2283"},"PeriodicalIF":27.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s41590-024-02011-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142713105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The development of combination strategies based on an understanding of the complex biology that regulates human antitumor immune responses has been a major challenge. In this Review, we describe the current landscape of combination therapies. We also discuss how the development of effective combination strategies will require the integration of small, tissue-rich clinical trials, to determine how therapy-driven perturbation of the human immune system affects downstream biological responses and eventual clinical outcomes, reverse translation of clinical observations to immunocompetent preclinical models, to interrogate specific biological pathways and their impact on antitumor immune responses, and novel computational methods and machine learning, to integrate multiple datasets across clinical and preclinical studies for the identification of the most relevant pathways that need to be targeted for successful combination strategies.
