Luster Center for Immunology & Inflammatory Diseases, Division of Rheumatology, Allergy and Immunology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02114 Correspondence: [email protected] Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines that control the migration and positioning of immune cells in tissues and are critical for the function of the innate immune system. Chemokines control the release of innate immune cells from the bone marrow during homeostasis as well as in response to infection and inflammation. Theyalso recruit innate immune effectors out of the circulation and into the tissue where, in collaboration with other chemoattractants, they guide these cells to the very sites of tissue injury. Chemokine function is also critical for the positioning of innate immune sentinels in peripheral tissue and then, following innate immune activation, guiding these activated cells to the draining lymph node to initiate and imprint an adaptive immune response. In this review, we will highlight recent advances in understanding how chemokine function regulates the movement and positioning of innate immune cells at homeostasis and in response to acute inflammation, and then we will review how chemokine-mediated innate immune cell trafficking plays an essential role in linking the innate and adaptive immune responses. hemokines are chemotactic cytokines that with emphasis placed on its role in the innate Ccontrol cell migration and cell positioning immune system. throughout development, homeostasis, and in- flammation.

Read Full License Page 1/29 Abstract Background: Bladder cancer (BLCA) has a high rate of morbidity and mortality, and is considered as one of the most malignant tumors of the urinary system. Tumor cells interact with surrounding interstitial cells, playing a key role in carcinogenesis and progression, which is partly mediated by chemokines. CXC chemokines exert anti‐tumor biological roles in the tumor microenvironment and affect patient prognosis. Nevertheless, their expression and prognostic values patients with BLCA remain unclear. Methods: We used online tools, including Oncomine, UALCAN, GEPIA, GEO databases, cBioPortal, GeneMANIA, DAVID 6.8, Metascape, TRUST (version 2.0), LinkedOmics, TCGA, and TIMER2.0 to perform the relevant analysis. Results: The mRNA levels of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand (CXCL)1, CXCL5, CXCL6, CXCL7, CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11, CXCL13, CXCL16, and CXCL17 were increased signicantly increased, and those of CXCL2, CXCL3, and CXCL12 were decreased signicantly in BLCA tissues as assessed using the Oncomine, TCGA, and GEO databases.

Fas Ligand Elicits a Caspase-Independent Proinflammatory Response in Human Keratinocytes: Implications for Dermatitis Sherry M
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Serveur académique lausannois ORIGINAL ARTICLE See related commentary on pg 2364 Fas Ligand Elicits a Caspase-Independent Proinflammatory Response in Human Keratinocytes: Implications for Dermatitis Sherry M. Farley1, Anjali D. Dotson1, David E. Purdy1, Aaron J. Sundholm1, Pascal Schneider2, Bruce E. Magun1 and Mihail S. Iordanov1 Fas ligand (FasL) causes apoptosis of epidermal keratinocytes and triggers the appearance of spongiosis in eczematous dermatitis. We demonstrate here that FasL also aggravates inflammation by triggering the expression of proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and adhesion molecules in keratinocytes. In HaCaT cells and in reconstructed human epidermis (RHE), FasL triggered a NF-kB-dependent mRNA accumulation of inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-a, IL-6, and IL-1b), chemokines (CCL2/MCP-1, CXCL1/GROa, CXCL3/GROg, and CXCL8/IL-8), and the adhesion molecule ICAM-1. Oligomerization of Fas was required both for apoptosis and for gene expression. Inhibition of caspase activity abolished FasL-dependent apoptosis; however, it failed to suppress the expression of FasL-induced genes. Additionally, in the presence of caspase inhibitors, but not in their absence, FasL triggered the accumulation of CCL5/RANTES (regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted) mRNA. Our findings identify a novel proinflammatory role of FasL in keratinocytes that is independent of caspase activity and is separable from apoptosis. Thus, in addition to causing spongiosis, FasL may play a direct role in triggering and/or sustaining inflammation in eczemas.

Recently, LTβR signaling in endothelial cells has been revealed to regulate immune cell migration. Signaling through LTβR is comprised of both the canonical and non-canonical-nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathways, which induce chemokines, cytokines, and cell adhesion molecules. Here, we focus on the novel functions of LTβR signaling in lymphatic endothelial cells for migration of regulatory T cells (Tregs), and specific targeting of LTβR signaling for potential therapeutics in transplantation and cancer patient survival.

A Neutrophil Activation Signature in Covid-19 Athanasios Didangelos
Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 20 April 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202004.0363.v1 A Neutrophil activation signature in Covid-19 Athanasios Didangelos (PhD) [email protected] University of Leicester, Mayer IgA Nephropathy Laboratory, University of Leicester, Leicester, LE1 7RH, United Kingdom Abstract Covid-19 is often related to hyperinflammation that drives lung or multi-organ damage and mortality. The immunopathological mechanisms that cause excessive inflammation following SARS-Cov-2 infection are under investigation while different approaches to limit hyperinflammation in affected patients are being proposed. Here, a computational network approach was used on recently available data to identify possible Covid-19 inflammatory mechanisms. First, network analysis of putative SARS-Cov-2 cellular receptors and their directly associated interacting proteins, led to the mining of a robust neutrophil-response signature and multiple relevant inflammatory response genes. Second, analysis of RNA-seq datasets of lung epithelial cells infected with SARS-Cov-2 found that infected cells specifically expressed neutrophil-attracting chemokines, further supporting the likely role of neutrophils in Covid-19 inflammation. The role of neutrophils in Covid-19 needs to be studied further. Different immunoregulatory molecules and pathways presented here (TNF Receptor, IL8, CXCR1, CXCR2, ADAM10, GPR84, MME-neprilysin, ANPEP, LAP3) are druggable and might be therapeutic targets in efforts to limit SARS-Cov-2 inflammation in severe clinical cases. Introduction New studies have highlighted that Covid-19 is often characterised by an extreme inflammatory response associated with lung and multi-organ injury and mortality and have suggested promising anti-inflammatory options (1). Other studies recommend caution with immunosuppression given that regulated inflammation is necessary for an effective anti-viral response (2).
