Interleukin (IL)-38 is a newly discovered cytokine of the IL-1 family, which binds various receptors (i.e., IL-36R, receptor accessory protein-like 1, and IL-1R1) in central nervous system (CNS). The hallmark physiological function IL-38 competitive binding to as does IL-36R antagonist. Emerging research has shown that abnormally expressed serum brain tissue patients with ischemic stroke (IS) autism spectrum disorder (ASD), suggesting may play an important role neurological diseases. Important advances include alleviates neuromyelitis optica (NMOD) by inhibiting Th17 expression, improves IS protecting against atherosclerosis via regulating immune cells inflammation, reduces IL-1β CXCL8 release through human microglial activity post-ASD. In contrast, mRNA markedly increased mainly phagocytes spinal cord injury (SCI). ablation attenuated SCI reducing cell infiltration. However, effect underlying mechanism CNS diseases remain inadequately characterized. this review, we summarize biological characteristics, pathophysiological role, potential mechanisms (e.g., NMOD, Alzheimer's disease, ASD, IS, TBI, SCI), aiming explore therapeutic prevention treatment

Abstract Induction of immunogenic cell death (ICD) in tumor combined with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy is widely developed to improve the efficacy cancer immunotherapy. However, current ICD induced based on apoptosis, i.e., often restricted immunogenicity owing inflammatory quenching that occurs early apoptosis. Recently, pyroptosis demonstrated be a more efficient form, pyroptosis. The contents released during can powerfully activate immunogenicity. Herein, first, it lower doses epigenetic drug decitabine increase GSDME expression prostate (PCa) RM‐1 cells and successfully induce an apoptosis‐pyroptosis transition after photodynamic (PDT). Subsequently, microenvironment dual‐responsive nano‐drug equipped PD‐L1 blocking peptide (TSD@LSN‐D) for self‐synergistic poorly PCa model confirm powerful antitumor response evoked by TSD@LSN‐D not only effectively inhibit primary but also form long‐term memory prevent recurrence metastasis. To best authors’ knowledge, this work presents first concept promotes apoptosis–pyroptosis PDT through modulation. Furthermore, combination ICB opens new platform

Effectively eliminating apoptotic cells is precisely controlled by a variety of signaling molecules and phagocytic effect known as efferocytosis. Abnormalities in efferocytosis may bring about the development chronic conditions, including angiocardiopathy, inflammatory diseases autoimmune diseases. During wound healing, failure leads to collection apoptosis, release necrotic material wounds that are difficult heal. In addition traditional phagocytes-macrophages, other important cell species dendritic cells, neutrophils, vascular endothelial fibroblasts keratinocytes contribute wounding healing. This review summarizes how efferocytosis-mediated immunomodulation plays repair-promoting role providing new insights for patients suffering from various cutaneous wounds.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a lifelong inflammatory immune mediated disorder, encompassing Crohn's (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC); however, the cause specific pathogenesis of IBD yet incompletely understood. Multiple cytokines produced by different cell types results in complex functional networks that constitute highly regulated messaging network signaling pathways. Applying biological mechanisms underlying at single omic level, technologies genetic engineering enable quantification pattern released new insights into cytokine landscape IBD. We focus on existing literature dealing with biology pro- or anti-inflammatory interactions facilitate cell-based modulation system for inflammation. summarize main roles substantial related to homeostatic tissue functions remodeling IBD, which may be specifically valuable successful cytokine-targeted therapies via marketed products.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is closely associated with immune dysfunction, where nutrient-mediated metabolic flux dictates cell fate and function. Thiamine a central water-soluble vitamin involved in cellular energy metabolism, its deficiency has been reported IBD patients. However, whether thiamine cause or consequence of pathogenesis remains unclear. The current study aimed to reveal the immunometabolic regulation macrophages underlying mechanism colitis development. was induced C57BL/6 mice bone marrow-derived (BMDMs), by administering thiamine-deficient diet/medium together pyrithiamine hydrobromide. frequency macrophage phenotypes their intracellular metabolism were detected using flow cytometry non-targeted metabolomics, respectively. aggravated ulcerative promoted infiltration proinflammatory M1 colonic lamina propria. Our mechanistic revealed that impaired pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity, thereby reprogramming glucose enhance glycolysis lactic acid accumulation macrophages. Using well-established PDH inhibitor (CPI-613) (galloflavin), we further demonstrated inhibition mimics, while lactate partially rescues, deficiency-induced experimental mice. provides evidence linking activation aggravation, suggesting monitoring status adjusting intake necessary protect against colitis.

Abstract Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, are characterized by chronic idiopathic inflammation of gastrointestinal tract. Although the pathogenesis IBD remains unknown, intestinal immune dysfunction has been considered as core pathogenesis. In system, T helper 1 (Th1) Th17 cells indispensable for intestine homeostasis via preventing pathogenic bacteria invasion, regulating metabolism functions epithelial (IECs), promoting IEC self-renewal. However, during development IBD, Th1 acquire pathogenicity change from maintainer to destroyer mucosa.

The serine/threonine-specific Moloney murine leukemia virus (PIM) kinase family (i.e., PIM1, PIM2, and PIM3) has been extensively studied in tumorigenesis. PIM kinases are downstream of several cytokine signaling pathways that drive immune-mediated diseases. Uncontrolled T helper 17 (Th17) cell activation associated with the pathogenesis autoimmunity. However, detailed molecular function PIMs human Th17 regulation yet to be studied. In present study, we comprehensively investigated how three simultaneously alter transcriptional gene during early differentiation. By combining triple knockdown bulk scRNA-seq approaches, found deficiency promotes expression key Th17-related genes while suppressing Th1-lineage genes. Further, modulate Th signaling, potentially via STAT1 STAT3. Overall, our study highlights inhibitory role differentiation, thereby suggesting their association autoimmune phenotypes.
