Jones,*,† Clı´ona Nı´ Cheallaigh,‡ Claire A. Hearnden,‡ Laura Williams,* Jan Winter,‡ Ed C. Lavelle,†,‡ Kingston H. G. Mills,*,† and James Harris*,† Autophagy controls IL-1b secretion by regulating inflammasome activation and by targeting pro–IL-1b for degradation. In this article, we show that inhibition of autophagy, either with the PI3K inhibitors 3-methyladenine, wortmannin, and LY294002 or with small interfering RNA against autophagy proteins augmented the secretion of IL-23 by human and mouse macrophages and dendritic cells in response to specific TLR agonists. This process occurred at the transcriptional level and was dependent on reactive oxygen species and IL-1R signaling; it was abrogated with an IL-1R antagonist or with IL-1–neutralizing Abs, whereas treatment with either rIL-1a or IL-1b induced IL-23 secretion. Dendritic cells treated with LPS and 3-methyladenine secreted Downloaded from enhanced levels of both IL-1b and IL-23, and supernatants from these cells stimulated the innate secretion of IL-17, IFN-g, and IL-22 by gd T cells. These data demonstrate that autophagy has a potentially pivotal role to play in the induction and regulation of inflammatory responses by innate immune cells, largely driven by IL-1 and its consequential effects on IL-23 secretion.

  • Autophagy Suppresses Ras-Driven Epithelial Tumourigenesis by Limiting the Accumulation of Reactive Oxygen Species

In a screen for tumour suppressors that cooperate with oncogenic Ras (RasV12)inDrosophila, we identified genes involved in the autophagy pathway. Bioinformatic analysis of human tumours revealed that several core autophagy genes, including GABARAP, correlate with oncogenic KRAS mutations and poor prognosis in human pancreatic cancer, supporting a potential tumour- suppressive effect of the pathway in Ras-driven human cancers. In Drosophila, we demonstrate that blocking autophagy at any step of the pathway enhances RasV12-driven epithelial tissue overgrowth via the accumulation of reactive oxygen species and activation of the Jun kinase stress response pathway. Blocking autophagy in RasV12 clones also results in non-cell-autonomous effects with autophagy, cell proliferation and caspase activation induced in adjacent wild-type cells. Our study has implications for understanding the interplay between perturbations in Ras signalling and autophagy in tumourigenesis,

  • Astrocyte-Specific Expression of Interleukin 23 Leads to An
    Nitsch et al. Journal of Neuroinflammation (2021) 18:101 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12974-021-02140-z RESEARCH Open Access Astrocyte-specific expression of interleukin 23 leads to an aggravated phenotype and enhanced inflammatory response with B cell accumulation in the EAE model Louisa Nitsch1*†, Simon Petzinna1†, Julian Zimmermann1, Linda Schneider1,2, Marius Krauthausen1, Michael T. Heneka3, Daniel R. Getts4, Albert Becker5 and Marcus Müller1,6 Abstract Background: Interleukin 23 is a critical cytokine in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis. But the local impact of interleukin 23 on the course of neuroinflammation is still not well defined. To further characterize the effect of interleukin 23 on CNS inflammation, we recently described a transgenic mouse model with astrocyte-specific expression of interleukin 23 (GF-IL23 mice). The GF-IL23 mice spontaneously develop a progressive ataxic phenotype with cerebellar tissue destruction and inflammatory infiltrates with high amounts of B cells most prominent in the subarachnoid and perivascular space. Methods: To further elucidate the local impact of the CNS-specific interleukin 23 synthesis in autoimmune neuroinflammation, we induced a MOG35-55 experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in GF-IL23 mice and WT mice and analyzed the mice by histology, flow cytometry, and transcriptome analysis. Results: We were able to demonstrate that local interleukin 23 production in the CNS leads to aggravation and chronification of the EAE course with a severe paraparesis and an ataxic phenotype. Moreover, enhanced multilocular neuroinflammation was present not only in the spinal cord, but also in the forebrain, brainstem, and predominantly in the cerebellum accompanied by persisting demyelination. Thereby, interleukin 23 creates a pronounced proinflammatory response with accumulation of leukocytes, in particular B cells, CD4+ cells, but also γδ T cells and activated microglia/macrophages.

Division of Infection and Immunity, University College London, London 2. Department of Rheumatology, University College London Hospitals NHS Trust, London Corresponding authors: Dr. Coziana Ciurtin, Department of Rheumatology, University College London Hospitals NHS Trust, 3rd Floor Central, 250 Euston Road, London, NW1 2PG, email: [email protected]. Short title: The role of IL-12/23 in chronic inflammation The authors declare no conflicts of interest Abstract In this review, we discuss the divergent role of the two closely related cytokine, interleukin (IL)-12 and IL-23, in shaping immune responses. In light of current therapeutic developments using biologic agents to block these two pathways, a better understanding of the immunological function of these cytokines is pivotal. Introduction: The cytokines IL-12/23 are known to be pro-inflammatory and recognised to be involved in driving autoimmunity and inflammation. Antibodies blocking IL-12/23 have now been developed to treat patients with chronic inflammatory conditions such as seronegative spondyloarthropathy, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, as well as multiple sclerosis. The anti-IL-12/23 drugs are very exciting for the clinician to study and use in these patient groups who have chronic, sometimes disabling conditions - either as a first line, or when other biologics such as anti-TNF therapies have failed. However, IL-12/23 have important biological functions, and it is recognised that their presence drives the body’s response to bacterial and viral infections, as well as tumour control via their regulation of T cell function.

Axtell * Department of Arthritis and Clinical Immunology, Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, Oklahoma City, OK 73104, USA; [email protected] (A.A.); [email protected] (J.L.Q.); [email protected] (G.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-(405)-271-2354 Abstract: Interferon (IFN)-β is a popular therapy for multiple sclerosis (MS). However, 25–40% of patients are nonresponsive to this therapy, and it worsens neuromyelitis optica (NMO), another neuroinflammatory disease. We previously identified, in both NMO patients and in mice, that IFN-β treatment had inflammatory effects in T Helper (TH) 17-induced disease through the production of the inflammatory cytokine IL-6. However, other studies have shown that IFN-β inhibits the differentiation and function of TH17 cells. In this manuscript, we identified that IFN-β had differential effects on discrete stages of TH17 development. During early TH17 development, IFN-β inhibits IL-17 production. Conversely, during late TH17 differentiation, IFN-β synergizes with IL-23 to promote a pathogenic T cell that has both TH1 and TH17 characteristics and expresses elevated levels of the potent inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and GM-CSF and the transcription factor BLIMP. Together, these findings help resolve a paradox surrounding IFN-β and TH17-induced disease and illuminate the pathways responsible for the pathophysiology of NMO and MS patients who are IFN-β nonresponders.

  • ATG16L1 Gene Autophagy Related 16 Like 1
    ATG16L1 gene autophagy related 16 like 1 Normal Function The ATG16L1 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is required for a process called autophagy. Cells use this process to recycle worn-out cell parts and break down certain proteins when they are no longer needed. Autophagy also plays an important role in controlled cell death (apoptosis). Additionally, autophagy is involved in the body's inflammatory response and helps the immune system destroy some types of harmful bacteria and viruses. Health Conditions Related to Genetic Changes Crohn disease At least one variation in the ATG16L1 gene is associated with an increased risk of Crohn disease, particularly a form of the disorder that affects the lower part of the small intestine (the ileum) and the colon. This increased risk has been found primarily in people of northern European ancestry. The identified ATG16L1 variation changes a single protein building block (amino acid) in a critical region of the ATG16L1 protein. Specifically, it replaces the amino acid threonine with the amino acid alanine at protein position 300 (written as Thr300Ala or T300A). This change in the ATG16L1 gene impairs the autophagy process, allowing worn-out cell parts and harmful bacteria to persist when they would otherwise be destroyed. These cell components and bacteria may trigger an inappropriate immune system response, leading to chronic inflammation in the intestinal walls and the digestive problems characteristic of Crohn disease. Researchers continue to study the relationship between changes in the ATG16L1 gene and a person's risk of developing this disorder.
