Abstract Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is one of the most common types of malignancy of the urinary system. The pathogenesis and effective diagnosis of ccRCC have become popular topics for research in the previous decade. In the current study, an integrated bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify core genes associated in ccRCC. An expression dataset (GSE105261) was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, and included 26 ccRCC and 9 normal kideny samples. Assessment of the microarray dataset led to the recognition of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which was subsequently used for pathway and gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis.

    Supplemental Materials and Methods Experimental bone metastasis assay Primary PCa cells were sorted by GFP marker from mTmG+ tumors, and 105 cells in 20μL PBS were injected using Hamilton syringe into the tibia of 6-week old NSG mice. Mice were monitored biweekly for moribund signs for euthanasia and organ harvest. Noninvasive mouse and ex vivo imaging MRI imaging with Bruker ICON and fluorescence imaging of fresh organs with metastasis enumeration were recently described (Lu et al. 2017). Primary prostate cell sphere formation assay Isolate of primary cells from prostate, culture and counting of prostatospheres on Matrigel were performed as described (Lukacs et al. 2010). For organoid culture assay, we followed a published matrigel embedding method (Chua et al. 2014). RNA-Seq and differential gene expression Total RNA was isolated from prostate tumors using Direct-zol RNA MiniPrep Kit (Zymo Research) and processed for stranded total RNA-Seq using Illumina HiSeq 4000 at Sequencing and Microarray Facility at MD Anderson Cancer Center. The differential expression analysis was performed using the DESeq2 package of R. P-values obtained after multiple binomial tests were adjusted using BH method. Significant genes are defined by using a cut-off of 0.05 on the BH corrected p-value and an absolute log2 fold change value of at least 1.5. Histology and western blot H&E stain, immunohistochemical (IHC) and western blot were performed as previously described (Ding et al. 2011; Wang et al. 2016). Primary antibodies for IHC include Ki67 (Fisher, RM-9106-S1), cleaved caspase 3 (Cell Signaling Technology aka CST, 9661), cyclin D1 (Fisher, clone SP4), TGFBR2 (Abcam, ab61213), BMPR2 (Abcam, ab130206), AR (EMD Millipore, 06-680), phospho- Akt (CST, 4060), GFP (CST, 2956), E-Cadherin (CST, 14472).

Background. Immunosuppression has a key function in sepsis pathogenesis, so it is of great significance to find immune-related markers for the treatment of sepsis. Methods. Datasets of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) with sepsis from the ArrayExpress database were extracted. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the CAP group and normal group by Limma package were performed. After calculation of immune score through the ESTIMATE algorithm, the DEGs were selected between the high immune score group and the low immune score group. Enrichment analysis of the intersected DEGs was conducted. Further, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) of the intersected DEGs was drawn by Metascape tools.

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).

  • Characterizing CEACAM5 Interaction with Cd8α and Cd1d in Intestinal
    nature publishing group ARTICLES Characterizing CEACAM5 interaction with CD8a and CD1d in intestinal homeostasis G Roda1, X Jianyu1, MS Park1, L DeMarte2, Z Hovhannisyan1, R Couri1, CP Stanners2, G Yeretssian1 and L Mayer1 Normal intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) could act as non-professional antigen-presenting cells, selectively activating CD8 þ -suppressor T cells. An epithelial cell surface glycoprotein, gp180, recognized by monoclonal antibodies B9 and L12 was determined to be critical in this process. Purification and sequence analysis of mAb B9 reactive material revealed amino-acid sequence homology with CEACAM5. We demonstrate that CEACAM5 has properties attributed to gp180, such as CD8a binding and activation of CD8-associated Lck. CEACAM5 is the only CEACAM member interacting with CD1d through the B3 domain. Its N domain (recognized by B9) is required for CD8a binding. Removal of the N-domain glycosylated residues reduces B9 recognition, CD8a binding affinity, and activation of LcK. Therefore, conformational changes in CEACAM5 glycosylation site are critical for its interaction with CD8a. CEACAM5-activated CD8 þ T cells acquire the ability to suppress the proliferation of CD4 þ T cells in vitro in the presence of interleukin (IL)-15 or IL-7. We provide new insights into the role of CEACAM5 and define its specific immunoregulatory properties among the CEACAMs expressed on IECs. We suggest that unique set of interactions between CEACAM5, CD1d, and CD8 render CD1d more class I-like molecule, facilitating antigen presentation and activation of CD8 þ -suppressor regulatory T cells. INTRODUCTION kinase activity. Subsequently, CD1d becomes more class I-like The nature of the immune response in the intestine may require molecule, with enhanced CD1d binding to the T-cell receptor either immunosuppression or controlled inflammation.
