Regulatory B cells (Breg cells) can impair antitumor immunity in patients with OC. The imbalanced serum soluble CD40/CD40L pathway is associated with ovarian tumors. This study aimed to explore the mechanisms involving CD40/CD40L signaling through which Breg cells promote the progression of OC. Breg cells were isolated from peripheral blood samples of 20 patients with OC and 20 healthy controls and identified by flow cytometry. Then, the soluble CD40L concentration in peripheral blood serum of OC patients and healthy volunteers was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and we found that the serum soluble CD40L level markedly increased and the proportion of Breg cells was positively correlated with CD40L level in peripheral blood of OC patients. Besides, Breg cells were isolated from spleens of female C57BL/6 WT mice and CD40^-/- mice. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, cell counting kit-8 assays, colony formation assays, flow cytometry, Western blotting, wound healing assays, and Transwell assays were conducted to assess the in vitro effect of Breg cells and CD40. We found that Breg cells contributed to cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and suppressed cell apoptosis in OC via the CD40/CD40L pathway. Moreover, we established a xenograft tumor model in female nude BALB/c mice. Tumor size and weight were evaluated, and Western blotting and ELISA were conducted, and we found that Breg cells promoted tumor growth via CD40 signaling. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that Breg cells activated by the CD40/CD40L pathway promotes the aggressiveness of OC cells and tumor growth, indicating that targeting the CD40/CD40L pathway might represent a novel therapeutic option for OC treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":482,"journal":{"name":"Biochemical Genetics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142685717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study aimed to investigate the functions of lncRNA fetal-lethal non-coding developmental regulatory RNA (FENDRR) in regulating malignant phenotypes of BC cell lines (T24 and RT-4) and the underlying mechanism. RT-qPCR was used to measure FENDRR, miR-18a-5p, and AF4/FMR2 family member 4 (AFF4) expression in BC tissue samples and cell lines. Subcellular fractionation assay and fluorescence in situ hybridization were conducted to determine the localization of FENDRR in T24 and RT-4 cell. EdU, sphere formation, Transwell invasion, and wound healing assays were carried out to detect the changes in BC cell proliferation, stemness, invasion, and migration in response to FENDRR or AFF4 dysregulation. Protein levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers were quantified by western blotting. The interaction between miR-18a-5p and FENDRR (or AFF4) was verified by luciferase reporter assays. Experimental results revealed that FENDRR expression was downregulated in BC tissue samples and cell lines, with primary localization in cytoplasm of T24 and RT-4 cells. FENDRR overexpression inhibited BC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, stemness, and EMT process. FENDRR was shown to bind with miR-18a-5p, and AFF4 is a direct target of miR-18a-5p. In addition, AFF4 knockdown partially counteracted the effect of FENDRR on malignant phenotypes of BC cells.

SAL treatment induces cellular senescence in tumor samples of PCa patients and in various PCa cell lines, including castration-resistant PCa (CRPC), and is associated with enhanced phospho-AKT levels. Using an AKT inhibitor (AKTi), the SAL-mediated cell senescence is inhibited. Here, we show by RNA-seq analyses of two human PCa cell lines, that annexin A2 (ANXA2) expression is induced by SAL and repressed by co-treatment with AKTi. Higher ANXA2 expression is associated with better survival of PCa patients and suggests that ANXA2 is part of SAL-mediated tumor suppressive activity. ChIP-seq revealed that AR is recruited to the intronic regions of ANXA2 gene suggesting that ANXA2 is a novel direct AR target gene. Knockdown of ANXA2 shows that SAL-induced cellular senescence is mediated by ANXA2 and enhances the levels of phospho-AKT indicating an interaction between the AR, ANXA2 and AKT. Notably, we found that the level of heat shock protein HSP27, known to interact with ANXA2, is associated with cellular senescence. HSP27 level is induced by SAL but the induction is blunted by knockdown of ANXA2 suggesting a novel ANXA2-HSP27 pathway in PCa. This was confirmed using an HSP27 inhibitor that reduced the SAL-induced cellular senescence levels suggesting that ANXA2 upregulates HSP27 to mediate AR-signaling in SAL-induced cellular senescence.

The clinical characteristics and risk factors of COVID-19 exhibit considerable variability, leading to a spectrum of clinical severity. Moreover, the likelihood of exposure to the virus may differ based on comorbidity status as comorbid illnesses have mechanisms that can considerably increase mortality by reducing the body's ability to withstand injury. The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway is essential for orchestrating innate immune cell defense, including cytokine production and is dysregulated in severe Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) individuals. Through genome-wide, association studies, numerous genetic variants in the human host have been identified that have a significant impact on the immune response to SARS-CoV-2. To identify potentially significant genetic variants in Covid-19 patients that could affect the risk, severity, and clinical outcome of the infection, this study has used whole-exome sequencing (WES) on the 16 COVID-19 patients with varying comorbidities and severity of the disease including fatal outcomes. Among them, 8 patients made a full recovery and were discharged, while 8 patients unfortunately did not survive due to the severity of the illness and majority of them were males. The study identified 10,204 variants in the patients. From 1120 variants, which were chosen for novel variant analysis using mutation, function prediction tools to identify deleterious variants that could affect normal gene function, 116 variants of 57 genes were found to be deleterious. These variants were further classified as likely pathogenic and variants of uncertain significance. The data showed that among the likely pathogenic variants five genes were identified in connection to immune response whereas two were related to respiratory system. The common variants associated with the covid-19 phenotype showed the top 10 significant genes identified in this study such as ERCC2, FBXO5, HTR3D, FAIM, DNAH17, MTOR, IGHMBP2, ZNF530, QSER1, and FOXRED2 with variant rs1057079 of the MTOR gene representing the highest odds ratio (1.7, p = 8.7e-04). The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway variant rs1057079 was reported with high odds ratio, may orchestrate innate immune cell defense, including cytokine production, and is dysregulated. This study concluded that the mTOR signaling gene variant (rs1057079) is associated with different degrees of covid-19 severity and is essential for orchestrating innate immune cell defense including cytokine production. Inhibiting mTOR and its corresponding deleterious immune responses with medicinal approaches may provide a novel avenue for treating severe COVID-19 illness.

The evaluated traits included postharvest physiological deterioration response (PPD), root length (RL), root diameter (RD), root weight (RW), dry matter content (DMC), total starch content (TS) and total sugar content (TSU). All the traits had a higher phenotypic variance component than genetic or environmental variance, with genotypic variance making up a larger portion of the total phenotypic variance. Heritability estimates ranged from low to high, with high heritability values being recorded for dry matter content, PPD, and root diameter. The study discovered high genotypic coefficients of variation (CVg) for PPD, root weight and diameter, indicating strong genotypic variability beneficial for selection. As larger genetic effects than non-genetic effects lead to increased selection gains, the highest CVr values for dry matter content and PPD suggest the biggest probability of selection gain. Postharvest Physiological deterioration (PPD) had the highest genetic advance, indicating significant gain in the following generation.
