The Journal of Immunology Comparative and Functional Evaluation of In Vitro Generated to Ex Vivo CD8 T Cells Dzˇana D. Dervovic´,*,† Maria Ciofani,*,†,1 Korosh Kianizad,*,† and Juan Carlos Zu´n˜iga-Pflu¨cker*,† The generation of the cytotoxic CD8 T cell response is dependent on the functional outcomes imposed by the intrathymic constraints of differentiation and self-tolerance. Although thymic function can be partly replicated in vitro using OP9-DL1 cell cultures to yield CD8 ab TCR-bearing cells from hematopoietic progenitor cells, a comprehensive and functional assessment of entirely in vitro generated CD8 T cells derived from bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells has not been established and remains controversial. In this study, we demonstrate that a phenotypic, molecular, and functional signature of in vitro derived CD8 T cells is akin to that of ex vivo CD8 T cells, although several significant differences were also observed. Transfer of in vitro derived CD8 T cells into syngeneic and immunodeficient host mice showed no graft-versus-host response, whereas a robust homeostatic proliferation was Downloaded from observed, respectively. These findings, along with a diverse and broad TCR repertoire expressed by the in vitro derived CD8 T cells, allowed for the successful generation of Ag-specific T cells to be obtained from an entirely in vitro generated CD8 T cell pool. These findings support the use of Ag-specific in vitro derived effector CD8 T cells for immune reconstitution approaches, which would be amenable to further tailoring for their use against viral infections or malignancies.

Cell Death and Disease (2021) 12:302 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-021-03582-2 Cell Death & Disease ARTICLE Open Access Kinesin family member 18B regulates the proliferation and invasion of human prostate cancer cells Yu-Peng Wu 1,Zhi-BinKe 1, Wen-Cai Zheng 1, Ye-Hui Chen 1,Jun-MingZhu 1,FeiLin 1,Xiao-DongLi 1, Shao-Hao Chen 1,HaiCai 1, Qing-Shui Zheng 1, Yong Wei 1, Xue-Yi Xue 1 and Ning Xu 1 Abstract Expression of kinesin family member 18B (KIF18B), an ATPase with key roles in cell division, is deregulated in many cancers, but its involvement in prostate cancer (PCa) is unclear. Here, we investigated the expression and function of KIF18B in human PCa specimens and cell lines using bioinformatics analyses, immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence microscopy, and RT-qPCR and western blot analyses. KIF18B was overexpressed in PCa specimens compared with paracancerous tissues and was associated with poorer disease-free survival. In vitro, KIF18B knockdown in PCa cell lines promoted cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and inhibited cell apoptosis, while KIF18B overexpression had the opposite effects. In a mouse xenograft model, KIF18B overexpression accelerated and promoted the growth of PCa tumors. Bioinformatics analysis of control and KIF18B-overexpressing PCa cells showed that genes involved in the PI3K–AKT–mTOR signaling pathway were significantly enriched among the differentially expressed genes. Consistent with this observation, we found that KIF18B overexpression activates the PI3K–AKT–mTOR signaling pathway in PCa cells both in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, our results suggest that KIF18B plays a crucial role – – 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; in PCa via activation of the PI3K AKT mTOR signaling pathway, and raise the possibility that KIF18B could have utility as a novel biomarker for PCa.

  • The Role of Fc Gamma Receptors in the Activity of Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON FACULTY OF MEDICINE Cancer Sciences Unit Volume 1 of 1 The Role of Fc Gamma Receptors in the Activity of Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies by Robert James Oldham Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2016 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF MEDICINE Biomedicine Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy THE ROLE OF FC GAMMA RECEPTORS IN THE ACTIVITY OF THERAPEUTIC MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES Robert James Oldham Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) are the major family of receptors responsible for interacting with immunoglobulin G (IgG). They are known to be required for the anti-tumour activity of direct targeting mAbs through expression on NK cells and macrophages. Furthermore, recent work has suggested that cross-linking via FcγRs is required for the activity of agonistic, immune modulatory mAb. This thesis sought to investigate the requirement for these receptors for different aspects of mAb activity; from T cell activation to tumour depletion, using a combination of in vitro and in vivo systems. A panel of CHO-K1 cells were generated and transfected to express the polymorphic variants of human FcγRs. These were characterised for their ability to bind IgG before being used as feeder cells in T cell proliferation assays. The assays found that cross-linking of the anti-CD28 mAb, TGN1412 by FcγRIIb (CD32b) or FcγRIIa (CD32a) but not FcγRIIIa (CD16a) transfected cells induced T cell proliferation. Furthermore, this was accompanied by the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α, IFN-γ and IL-2. With the importance of cross-linking via CD32b demonstrated, experiments probed the mechanism of expression using Ramos and Raji cells.

    TECHNICAL DATA SHEET APC Anti-Human CD11b (ICRF44) Catalog Number: 20-0118 PRODUCT INFORMATION Count Contents: APC Anti-Human CD11b (ICRF44) Isotype: Mouse IgG1, kappa 0 0 1 2 3 4 10 10 10 10 10 Human CD11b (ICRF44) APC Concentration: 5 uL (1 ug)/test Clone: ICRF44 Human peripheral blood monocytes were stained with 5 uL (1 ug) APC Anti-Human CD11b (20-0118) (solid line) or 1 ug APC Mouse Reactivity: Human IgG1 isotype control (dashed line). Formulation: 10 mM NaH2PO4, 150 mM NaCl, 0.09% NaN3, 0.1% gelatin, pH7.2 DESCRIPTION The ICRF44 antibody reacts with human CD11b, also known as integrin alpha M. This 165-170 kDa cell surface glycoprotein is part of a family of integrin receptors that mediate adhesion between cells (cell-cell) and components of the extracellular matrix, e.g. fibrinogen (cell-matrix). In addition, integrins are active signaling receptors which recruit leukocytes to inflammatory sites and promote cell activa- tion. Complete, functional integrin receptors consist of distinct combinations of integrin chains which are differentially expressed. Integrin alpha M (CD11b) assembles with Integrin beta-2 (CD18) into a receptor known as Macrophage Antigen-1 (Mac-1) or complement receptor type 3 (CR3). This receptor binds and induces intracellular signaling through ICAM-1, ICAM-2, ICAM-3 and ICAM-4 on endothelial cells and can also facilitate removal of iC3b bearing foreign cells.The ICRF44 antibody is widely used as a marker for CD11b expression on macrophages, granulocytes, and subsets of NK cells. It is reported to be cross-reactive with a number of non-human species including Baboon, Chimpanzee, Cynomolgus, Rhesus and Swine.

  • Stearoyl-Coa Desaturase 1 As a Therapeutic Target for the Treatment of Cancer
    cancers Review Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase 1 as a Therapeutic Target for the Treatment of Cancer Zuzanna Tracz-Gaszewska and Pawel Dobrzyn * Laboratory of Molecular Medical Biochemistry, Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology Polish Academy of Sciences, 02-093 Warsaw, Poland * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 5 June 2019; Accepted: 3 July 2019; Published: 5 July 2019 Abstract: A distinctive feature of cancer cells of various origins involves alterations of the composition of lipids, with significant enrichment in monounsaturated fatty acids. These molecules, in addition to being structural components of newly formed cell membranes of intensely proliferating cancer cells, support tumorigenic signaling. An increase in the expression of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1), the enzyme that converts saturated fatty acids to D9-monounsaturated fatty acids, has been observed in a wide range of cancer cells, and this increase is correlated with cancer aggressiveness and poor outcomes for patients. Studies have demonstrated the involvement of SCD1 in the promotion of cancer cell proliferation, migration, metastasis, and tumor growth. Many studies have reported a role for this lipogenic factor in maintaining the characteristics of cancer stem cells (i.e., the population of cells that contributes to cancer progression and resistance to chemotherapy). Importantly, both the products of SCD1 activity and its direct impact on tumorigenic pathways have been demonstrated. Based on these findings, SCD1 appears to be a significant player in the development of malignant disease and may be a promising target for anticancer therapy. Numerous chemical compounds that exert inhibitory effects on SCD1 have been developed and preclinically tested. The present review summarizes our current knowledge of the ways in which SCD1 contributes to the progression of cancer and discusses opportunities and challenges of using SCD1 inhibitors for the treatment of cancer.

  • Cells and at Immune-Privileged Sites Dendritic Inhibitor 9, Is Mainly
    The Granzyme B Inhibitor, Protease Inhibitor 9, Is Mainly Expressed by Dendritic Cells and at Immune-Privileged Sites1 Bellinda A. Bladergroen,* Merel C. M. Strik,† Niels Bovenschen,* Oskar van Berkum,* George L. Scheffer,* Chris J. L. M. Meijer,* C. Erik Hack,†‡ and J. Alain Kummer2* Granzyme B is released from CTLs and NK cells and an important mediator of CTL/NK-induced apoptosis in target cells. The human intracellular serpin proteinase inhibitor (PI)9 is the only human protein able to inhibit the activity of granzyme B. As a first step to elucidate the physiological role of PI9, PI9 protein expression in various human tissues was studied. A mAb directed against human PI9 was developed, which specifically stained PI9-transfected COS-7 cells, and was used for immunohistochem- istry. Both in primary lymphoid organs and in inflammatory infiltrates, PI9 was present in different subsets of dendritic cells. Also T-lymphocytes in primary and organ-associated lymphoid tissues were PI9 positive. Endothelial cells of small vessels in most organs tested as well as the endothelial layer of large veins and arteries showed strong PI9 staining. Surprisingly, high PI9 protein expression was also found at immune-privileged sites like the placenta, the testis, the ovary, and the eye. These data fit with the hypothesis that PI9 is expressed at sites where degranulation of CTL or NK cells is potentially deleterious.
