Xavier23,24 and Eicke Latz25,26,27 ✉ Abstract | Immune memory is a defining feature of the acquired immune system, but activation of the innate immune system can also result in enhanced responsiveness to subsequent triggers. This process has been termed ‘trained immunity’, a de facto innate immune memory. Research in the past decade has pointed to the broad benefits of trained immunity for host defence but has also suggested potentially detrimental outcomes in immune-mediated and chronic inflammatory diseases. Here we define ‘trained immunity’ as a biological process and discuss the innate stimuli and the epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming events that shape the induction of trained immunity. Pattern recognition The vertebrate immune system has traditionally been called ‘LPS tolerance’, which can be induced by low receptors divided into innate and adaptive arms. Cells of the innate doses of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and other Toll-like (PRRs).

Sibley 1,4,5,6* Single cell transcriptome profling has emerged as a breakthrough technology for the high‑resolution understanding of complex cellular systems. Here we report a fexible, cost‑efective and user‑ friendly droplet‑based microfuidics system, called the Nadia Instrument, that can allow 3′ mRNA capture of ~ 50,000 single cells or individual nuclei in a single run. The precise pressure‑based system demonstrates highly reproducible droplet size, low doublet rates and high mRNA capture efciencies that compare favorably in the feld. Moreover, when combined with the Nadia Innovate, the system can be transformed into an adaptable setup that enables use of diferent bufers and barcoded bead confgurations to facilitate diverse applications. Finally, by 3′ mRNA profling asynchronous human and mouse cells at diferent phases of the cell cycle, we demonstrate the system’s ability to readily distinguish distinct cell populations and infer underlying transcriptional regulatory networks. Notably this provided supportive evidence for multiple transcription factors that had little or no known link to the cell cycle (e.g. DRAP1, ZKSCAN1 and CEBPZ). In summary, the Nadia platform represents a promising and fexible technology for future transcriptomic studies, and other related applications, at cell resolution. Single cell transcriptome profling has recently emerged as a breakthrough technology for understanding how cellular heterogeneity contributes to complex biological systems. Indeed, cultured cells, microorganisms, biopsies, blood and other tissues can be rapidly profled for quantifcation of gene expression at cell resolution.

Bennc,d, Stefano M. Bertozzie,f,g, Lawrence Blatth, Angela Y. Changd, Dean T. Jamisoni, Shabaana A. Khaderj, Shyam Kottililk, Mihai G. Neteal,m, Annie Sparrown, and Robert C. Gallok,1 Edited by Peter Palese, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY, and approved March 17, 2021 (received for review January 29, 2021) The COVID-19 pandemic triggered an unparalleled pursuit of vaccines to induce specific adaptive immu- nity, based on virus-neutralizing antibodies and T cell responses. Although several vaccines have been developed just a year after SARS-CoV-2 emerged in late 2019, global deployment will take months or even years. Meanwhile, the virus continues to take a severe toll on human life and exact substantial economic costs. Innate immunity is fundamental to mammalian host defense capacity to combat infections. Innate immune responses, triggered by a family of pattern recognition receptors, induce interferons and other cytokines and activate both myeloid and lymphoid immune cells to provide protection against a wide range of pathogens. Epidemiological and biological evidence suggests that the live-attenuated vaccines (LAV) targeting tuberculosis, measles, and polio induce protective innate immunity by a newly described form of immunological memory termed “trained immunity.” An LAV designed to induce adaptive immunity targeting a particular pathogen may also induce innate immunity that mitigates other infectious diseases, including COVID-19, as well as future pandemic threats. Deployment of existing LAVs early in pandemics could complement the development of specific vaccines, bridging the protection gap until specific vac- cines arrive.

It turns out that innate immunity cells can mount some kind of immunological memory, similar to that observed in the acquired immunity and corresponding to the defense mechanisms of lower organisms, which increases their resistance to reinfection. This phenomenon is termed trained innate immunity. It is based on epigenetic changes in innate immune cells (monocytes/macrophages, NK cells) after their stimulation with various infectious or non-infectious agents. Many infectious stimuli, including bacterial or fungal cells and their components (LPS, β-glucan, chitin) as well as viruses or even parasites are considered potent inducers of innate immune memory. Epigenetic cell reprogramming occurring at the heart of the phenomenon may provide a useful basis for designing novel prophylactic and therapeutic strategies to prevent and protect against multiple diseases. In this article, we present the current state of art on trained innate immunity occurring as a result of infectious agent induction.

  • Immunometabolism Research Focus: Cell Metabolism & NAD+ Metabolism
    www.adipogen.com Immunometabolism Research Focus: Cell Metabolism & NAD+ Metabolism Immunometabolism is a research field that provides new insights into the dynamic cross-talk between the immune system (immunity) and metabolic processes of an organism (metabolism). Immunometabolism tries to understand how metabolism controls the function of immune cells. It can be studied at a macroscopic level (e.g. in adipose tissues (see Figure 1) or in a tumor microenvironment) and at a microscopic level, the cellular bioenergetics of immune cells (see Figure 2). The activation, growth and proliferation, function and homeostasis of immune cells are intimately linked to dynamic changes in cellular metabolism configurations. The utilization of particular metabolic pathways is controlled by growth factors and nutrient availability (dictated by competition between other interacting cells) and by the balance of internal metabolites, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reducing/oxidizing substrates. Major metabolic pathways (see Figure 2) that shape the immune cell response include glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), fatty acid oxidation (FAO), fatty acid synthesis (FAS) and amino acid (AA) metabolism (e.g. Glutamine, Arginine, Tryptophan). The various immune cell subsets use distinct metabolic pathways to promote cell survival, lineage generation and function. For example, inflammatory M1 macrophages or rapidly proliferating effector T cells, including T helper 1 (TH1), TH17 and cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, use metabolic pathways that support cell proliferation and the production of cytokines, such as glycolysis or fatty acid synthesis. M2 macrophages or immunosuppressive regulatory T (Treg) cells use metabolic pathways which inhibit inflammatory signals and are associated with suppressive functions, such as TCA cycle and fatty acid oxidation.
