Abstract: Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) is an inflammatory cytokine produced in response to viral infections that promotes the recruitment and activation of leukocytes to sites of infection. This TNF- based host response is essential to limit virus spreading, thus poxviruses have evolutionarily adopted diverse molecular mechanisms to counteract TNF antiviral action. These include the expression of poxvirus-encoded soluble receptors or proteins able to bind and neutralize TNF and other members of the TNF ligand superfamily, acting as decoy receptors. This article reviews in detail the various TNF decoy receptors identified to date in the genomes from different poxvirus species, with a special focus on their impact on poxvirus pathogenesis and their potential use as therapeutic molecules.

TNF is mainly secreted from activated macrophages, but also from natural Maluquer De Motes and killer and T-cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, mast cells and other non-immune cells, such as Antonieta Guerrero-Plata endothelial cells or neurons [3].

Far from just being a precursor, tmTNF is a key regulator for many immune and inflammatory processes, as both forms of TNF (tmTNF and sTNF) can bind to two different transmembrane cellular receptors with different affinities [7]. Whereas sTNF binds prefer- entially to the ubiquitous TNFR1 (also known as p55/p60), tmTNF is the main activating ligand for TNFR2 (also known as p75/p80), which is only expressed in certain endothelial Copyright: © 2021 by the authors. and immune cell types [8].

The TNFR1 cytoplasmic domain harbours a death domain that enables direct interaction with the TNFR-associated death domain (TRADD) in response to TNF binding. The TNFR1-TRADD complex then serves as a docking platform to recruit diverse signalling proteins such as the receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), that initiate apoptotic cell death via the caspase cascade. In contrast, the intracellular part of TNFR2 does not contain a death domain and promotes cell survival after TNF binding through recruitment of TNF receptor-associated proteins (TRAF) that trigger activation of transcription factor nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB). Activation of NF-κB may also occur after TNF stimulation via TNFR1, since the TRADD-TRAF2-RIPK1 complex can additionally serve as a scaffold for NF-κB essential modulator (NEMO) binding, which is essential for the inhibition of NF-kB kinase (IkB) degradation. In summary, TNF pro-survival action required for cell proliferation or Pathogens 2021, 10, 1065 differentiation can be executed either through TNFR1 or TNFR2, while TNF-mediated3 of 17 cell death mainly occurs through TNFR1 signalling (Figure1).

Data from animal studies indicate that TRAIL may possibly contribute to the pathophysiology of cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, ischemic stroke and abdomi- nal aortic aneurysm. It has been also suggested that TRAIL might be useful in cardiovascular risk stratification. This systematic review aimed to evaluate whether TRAIL is a risk factor or risk marker in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) focusing on major adverse cardiovascular events. Two databases (PubMed and Cochrane Library) were searched until December 2020 without a year limit in accor- dance to the PRISMA guidelines. A total of 63 eligible original studies were identified and included in our systematic review. Studies suggest an important role of TRAIL in disorders such as heart failure, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, ischemic stroke, peripheral artery disease, and pul- monary and gestational hypertension. Most evidence associates reduced TRAIL levels and increased TRAIL-R2 concentration with all-cause mortality in patients with CVDs. It is, however, unclear Citation: Kakareko, K.; whether low TRAIL levels should be considered as a risk factor rather than a risk marker of CVDs.

  • The Function of CD27 Costimulation in the Activation and Fate Decisions of CD8+ T Cells
    The function of CD27 costimulation in the activation and fate decisions of CD8+ T cells Han Dong Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China B.Sc, Zhejing University, 2009 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Experimental Pathology University of Virginia May 2015 ! i! Abstract CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes are critical components of adaptive immunity against a variety of intracellular pathogens, and can play a key role in the control of tumors. Effective vaccination strategies against viral infections and tumors will likely require the development of potent CD8+ T cell responses, which are constituted by the expansion of robust primary CD8+ T cell populations and the establishment of long-lasting memory. Fully functional CD8+ T cell responses are highly dependent upon CD4+ helper T cells and Signal 3 inflammatory cytokine pathways. CD4+ T cells have been demonstrated to play a critical role in inducing the expression of CD70, the ligand for CD27, on dendritic cells. However, it is not clear to what extent the ‘help’ provided by CD4+ T cells is manifest via CD70, or how CD70-mediated stimulation of CD8+ T cells is integrated with signals that emanate from Signal 3 pathways, such as type-1 interferon (IFN-1) and IL- 12. In this work, by enforcing or abrogating CD27 function by genetic or protein intervention in murine models, we sought to identify the function of CD27 costimulation in the activation and fate decisions of CD8+ T cells, to determine the extent it resembles CD4+ T cell help, and how inflammation impacts the relative importance of CD70-CD27 interactions in CD8+ T cell primary responses and CD8+ T cell memory.

This mode of interaction Decoy Receptor 3 (DcR3), a secreted member of the results in ligand:receptor assemblies with 3:3 stoichiometries Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) receptor superfamily, that span two interacting cells. The ligand-mediated clustering neutralizes three different TNF ligands: FasL, LIGHT, of TNFRs directs the recruitment of signaling adaptor proteins, and TL1A. Each of these ligands engages unique such as TNF receptor associated factors (TRAFs) or death signaling receptors which direct distinct and critical domain adaptor proteins, and initiates diverse downstream immune responses. We report the crystal structures signaling pathways. Some TNFRs are also produced as soluble forms due to alter- of the unliganded DcR3 ectodomain and its complex nate mRNA splicing or selective proteolytic cleavage (Cheng with TL1A, as well as complementary mutagenesis et al., 1994; Locksley et al., 2001; Van Zee et al., 1992). The met- and biochemical studies. These analyses demon- alloprotease-mediated cleavage of two TNF-a receptors (TNFR1 strate that DcR3 interacts with invariant backbone and TNFR2) has been reported to attenuate proinflammatory and side-chain atoms in the membrane-proximal TNF-a-associated signaling, possibly by reducing the amount half of TL1A which supports recognition of its three of cell surface receptors and by the sequestration/neutralization distinct TNF ligands.
