Cellular and Plasma Proteomic Determinants of COVID-19 and Non-COVID-19 Pulmonary Diseases Relative to Healthy Aging
RESOURCE https://doi.org/10.1038/s43587-021-00067-x Cellular and plasma proteomic determinants of COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 pulmonary diseases relative to healthy aging Laura Arthur1,8, Ekaterina Esaulova 1,8, Denis A. Mogilenko 1, Petr Tsurinov1,2, Samantha Burdess1, Anwesha Laha1, Rachel Presti 3, Brian Goetz4, Mark A. Watson1, Charles W. Goss5, Christina A. Gurnett6, Philip A. Mudd 7, Courtney Beers4, Jane A. O’Halloran3 and Maxim N. Artyomov1 ✉ We examine the cellular and soluble determinants of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) relative to aging by performing mass cytometry in parallel with clinical blood testing and plasma proteomic profiling of ~4,700 proteins from 71 individuals with pul- monary disease and 148 healthy donors (25–80 years old). Distinct cell populations were associated with age (GZMK+CD8+ T cells and CD25low CD4+ T cells) and with COVID-19 (TBET−EOMES− CD4+ T cells, HLA-DR+CD38+ CD8+ T cells and CD27+CD38+ B cells). A unique population of TBET+EOMES+ CD4+ T cells was associated with individuals with COVID-19 who experienced moderate, rather than severe or lethal, disease. Disease severity correlated with blood creatinine and urea nitrogen levels. Proteomics revealed a major impact of age on the disease-associated plasma signatures and highlighted the divergent contri- bution of hepatocyte and muscle secretomes to COVID-19 plasma proteins. Aging plasma was enriched in matrisome proteins and heart/aorta smooth muscle cell-specific proteins. These findings reveal age-specific and disease-specific changes associ- ated with COVID-19, and potential soluble mediators of the physiological impact of COVID-19. -

RX Zhang, et al ORIGINAL ARTICLE Complementary DNA Microarray Analysis of Chemokines and Their Receptors in Allergic Rhinitis RX Zhang,1 SQ Yu,2 JZ Jiang,3 GJ Liu3 1 Department of Otolaryngology, Huadong Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China 2 Department of Otolaryngology , Jinan General Hospital of PLA, Shandong, China 3 Department of Otolaryngology, Changhai Hospital, Second Military Medical University, Shanghai, China ■ Abstract Objective: To analyze the roles of chemokines and their receptors in the pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis by observing the complementary DNA (cDNA) expression of the chemokines and their receptors in the nasal mucosa of patients with and without allergic rhinitis, using gene chips. Methods: The total RNAs were isolated from the nasal mucosa of 20 allergic rhinitis patients and purifi ed to messenger RNAs, and then reversely transcribed to cDNAs and incorporated with samples of fl uorescence-labeled with Cy5-dUPT (rhinitis patient samples) or Cy3- dUTP (control samples of nonallergic nasal mucosa). Thirty-nine cDNAs of chemokines and their receptors were latticed into expression profi le chips, which were hybridized with probes and then scanned with the computer to study gene expression according to the different fl uorescence intensities. Results: The cDNAs of the following chemokines were upregulated: CCL1, CCL2, CCL5, CCL7, CCL8, CCL11, CCL13, CCL14, CCL17, CCL18, CCL19, CCL24, and CX3CL1 in most of the allergic rhinitis sample chips. CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR8 and CX3CR1 were the highly expressed receptor genes. Low expression of CXCL4 was found in these tissues. Conclusion: The T helper cell (TH) immune system is not well regulated in allergic rhinitis. -

Neutrophil Chemoattractant Receptors in Health and Disease: Double-Edged Swords
Cellular & Molecular Immunology www.nature.com/cmi REVIEW ARTICLE Neutrophil chemoattractant receptors in health and disease: double-edged swords Mieke Metzemaekers1, Mieke Gouwy1 and Paul Proost 1 Neutrophils are frontline cells of the innate immune system. These effector leukocytes are equipped with intriguing antimicrobial machinery and consequently display high cytotoxic potential. Accurate neutrophil recruitment is essential to combat microbes and to restore homeostasis, for inflammation modulation and resolution, wound healing and tissue repair. After fulfilling the appropriate effector functions, however, dampening neutrophil activation and infiltration is crucial to prevent damage to the host. In humans, chemoattractant molecules can be categorized into four biochemical families, i.e., chemotactic lipids, formyl peptides, complement anaphylatoxins and chemokines. They are critically involved in the tight regulation of neutrophil bone marrow storage and egress and in spatial and temporal neutrophil trafficking between organs. Chemoattractants function by activating dedicated heptahelical G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In addition, emerging evidence suggests an important role for atypical chemoattractant receptors (ACKRs) that do not couple to G proteins in fine-tuning neutrophil migratory and functional responses. The expression levels of chemoattractant receptors are dependent on the level of neutrophil maturation and state of activation, with a pivotal modulatory role for the (inflammatory) environment. Here, we provide an overview -
Follicular Thyroid Carcinoma but Not Adenoma Recruits Tumor-Associated
Huang et al. BMC Cancer (2016) 16:98 DOI 10.1186/s12885-016-2114-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Follicular thyroid carcinoma but not adenoma recruits tumor-associated macrophages by releasing CCL15 Feng-Jiao Huang1†, Xiao-Yi Zhou1†, Lei Ye1*, Xiao-Chun Fei2, Shu Wang1,3, Weiqing Wang1 and Guang Ning1,3 Abstract Background: The differential diagnosis of follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and follicular adenoma (FA) before surgery is a clinical challenge. Many efforts have been made but most focusing on tumor cells, while the roles of tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) remained unclear in FTC. Here we analyzed the differences between TAMs in FTC and those in FA. Methods: We first analyzed the density of TAMs by CD68 immunostaining in 59 histologically confirmed FTCs and 47 FAs. Cytokines produced by FTC and FA were profiled using antibody array, and validated by quantitative PCR. Chemotaxis of monocyte THP-1 was induced by condition medium of FTC cell lines (FTC133 and WRO82-1) with and without anti-CCL15 neutralizing antibody. Finally, we analyzed CCL15 protein level in FTC and FA by immunohistochemistry. Results: The average density of CD68+ cells was 9.5 ± 5.4/field in FTC, significantly higher than that in FA (4.9 ± 3.4/field, p < 0.001). Subsequently profiling showed that CCL15 was the most abundant chemokine in FTC compared with FA. CCL15 mRNA in FTC was 51.4-folds of that in FA. CM of FTC cell lines induced THP-1 cell chemotaxis by 33 ~ 77 %, and anti-CCL15 neutralizing antibody reduced THP-1 cell migration in a dose-dependent manner. -

KGaA, Weinheim ISBN: 978-3-527-32118-6 j3 1 Structural Aspects of Chemokines and their Interactions with Receptors and Glycosaminoglycans Amanda E. I. Proudfoot, India Severin, Damon Hamel, and Tracy M. Handel 1.1 Introduction Chemokines are a large subfamily of cytokines (50 in humans) that can be distinguished from other cytokines due to several features. They share a common biological activity, which is the control of the directional migration of leukocytes, hence their name, chemoattractant cytokines. They are all small proteins (approx. 8 kDa) that are highly basic, with two exceptions (MIP-1a, MIP-1b). Also, they have a highly conserved monomeric fold, constrained by 1–3 disulfides which are formed from a conserved pattern of cysteine residues (the majority of chemokines have four cysteines). The pattern of cysteine residues is used as the basis of their division into subclasses and for their nomenclature. The first class, referred to as CXC or a-chemokines, have a single residue between the first N-terminal Cys residues, whereas in the CC class, or b-chemokines, these two Cys residues are adjacent. While most chemokines have two disulfides, the CC subclass also has three members that contain three. Subsequent to the CC and CXC families, two fi additional subclasses were identi ed, the CX3C subclass [1, 2], which has three amino acids separating the N-terminal Cys pair, and the C subclass, which has a single disulfide. -

Th22 Cells Represent a Distinct Human T Cell Subset Involved in Epidermal Immunity and Remodeling
Th22 cells represent a distinct human T cell subset involved in epidermal immunity and remodeling Stefanie Eyerich, … , Carsten B. Schmidt-Weber, Andrea Cavani J Clin Invest. 2009;119(12):3573-3585. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI40202. Research Article Immunology Th subsets are defined according to their production of lineage-indicating cytokines and functions. In this study, we have identified a subset of human Th cells that infiltrates the epidermis in individuals with inflammatory skin disorders and is characterized by the secretion of IL-22 and TNF-α, but not IFN-γ, IL-4, or IL-17. In analogy to the Th17 subset, cells with this cytokine profile have been named the Th22 subset. Th22 clones derived from patients with psoriasis were stable in culture and exhibited a transcriptome profile clearly separate from those of Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells; it included genes encoding proteins involved in tissue remodeling, such as FGFs, and chemokines involved in angiogenesis and fibrosis. Primary human keratinocytes exposed to Th22 supernatants expressed a transcriptome response profile that included genes involved in innate immune pathways and the induction and modulation of adaptive immunity. These proinflammatory Th22 responses were synergistically dependent on IL-22 and TNF-α. Furthermore, Th22 supernatants enhanced wound healing in an in vitro injury model, which was exclusively dependent on IL-22. In conclusion, the human Th22 subset may represent a separate T cell subset with a distinct identity with respect to gene expression and function, present within the epidermal layer in inflammatory skin diseases. Future strategies directed against the Th22 subset may be of value in chronic inflammatory skin disorders. -

CCL20/CCR6 Signaling Regulates Bone Mass Accrual in Mice
ORIGINAL ARTICLE JBMR CCL20/CCR6 Signaling Regulates Bone Mass Accrual in Mice Michele Doucet, Swaathi Jayaraman, Emily Swenson, Brittany Tusing, Kristy L Weber,Ã and Scott L Kominsky Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA ABSTRACT CCL20 is a member of the macrophage inflammatory protein family and is reported to signal monogamously through the receptor CCR6. Although studies have identified the genomic locations of both Ccl20 and Ccr6 as regions important for bone quality, the role of CCL20/CCR6 signaling in regulating bone mass is unknown. By micro–computed tomography (mCT) and histomorphometric analysis, we show that global loss of Ccr6 in mice significantly decreases trabecular bone mass coincident with reduced osteoblast numbers. Notably, CCL20 and CCR6 were co-expressed in osteoblast progenitors and levels increased during osteoblast differentiation, indicating the potential of CCL20/CCR6 signaling to influence osteoblasts through both autocrine and paracrine actions. With respect to autocrine effects, CCR6 was found to act as a functional G protein–coupled receptor in osteoblasts and although its loss did not appear to affect the number or proliferation rate of osteoblast progenitors, differentiation was significantly inhibited as evidenced by delays in osteoblast marker gene expression, alkaline phosphatase activity, and mineralization. In addition, CCL20 promoted osteoblast survival concordant with activation of the PI3K-AKT pathway. Beyond these potential autocrine effects, osteoblast-derived CCL20 stimulated the recruitment of macrophages and T cells, known facilitators of osteoblast differentiation and survival. Finally, we generated mice harboring a global deletion of Ccl20 and found that Ccl20-/- mice exhibit a reduction in bone mass similar to that observed in Ccr6-/- mice, confirming that this phenomenon is regulated by CCL20 rather than alternate CCR6 ligands.
