Academic Editor: Vita Golubovskaya Received: 14 December 2016; Accepted: 18 January 2017; Published: 27 January 2017 Abstract: Urothelial cancer of the bladder, renal pelvis, ureter, and other urinary organs is the fifth most common cancer in the United States, and systemic platinum-based chemotherapy remains the standard of care for first-line treatment of advanced/metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC). Until recently, there were very limited options for patients who are refractory to chemotherapy, or do not tolerate chemotherapy due to toxicities and overall outcomes have remained very poor. While the role of immunotherapy was first established in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer in the 1970s, no systemic immunotherapy was approved for advanced disease until the recent approval of a programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibitor, atezolizumab, in patients with advanced/metastatic UC who have progressed on platinum-containing regimens. This represents a significant milestone in this disease after a void of over 30 years. In addition to atezolizumab, a variety of checkpoint inhibitors have shown a significant activity in advanced/metastatic urothelial carcinoma and are expected to gain Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in the near future.

  • CD226 T Cells Expressing the Receptors TIGIT and Divergent Phenotypes of Human Regulatory
    The Journal of Immunology Divergent Phenotypes of Human Regulatory T Cells Expressing the Receptors TIGIT and CD226 Christopher A. Fuhrman,*,1 Wen-I Yeh,*,1 Howard R. Seay,* Priya Saikumar Lakshmi,* Gaurav Chopra,† Lin Zhang,* Daniel J. Perry,* Stephanie A. McClymont,† Mahesh Yadav,† Maria-Cecilia Lopez,‡ Henry V. Baker,‡ Ying Zhang,x Yizheng Li,{ Maryann Whitley,{ David von Schack,x Mark A. Atkinson,* Jeffrey A. Bluestone,‡ and Todd M. Brusko* Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a central role in counteracting inflammation and autoimmunity. A more complete understanding of cellular heterogeneity and the potential for lineage plasticity in human Treg subsets may identify markers of disease pathogenesis and facilitate the development of optimized cellular therapeutics. To better elucidate human Treg subsets, we conducted direct transcriptional profiling of CD4+FOXP3+Helios+ thymic-derived Tregs and CD4+FOXP3+Helios2 T cells, followed by comparison with CD4+FOXP32Helios2 T conventional cells. These analyses revealed that the coinhibitory receptor T cell Ig and ITIM domain (TIGIT) was highly expressed on thymic-derived Tregs. TIGIT and the costimulatory factor CD226 bind the common ligand CD155. Thus, we analyzed the cellular distribution and suppressive activity of isolated subsets of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/2 T cells expressing CD226 and/or TIGIT. We observed TIGIT is highly expressed and upregulated on Tregs after activation and in vitro expansion, and is associated with lineage stability and suppressive capacity. Conversely, the CD226+TIGIT2 population was associated with reduced Treg purity and suppressive capacity after expansion, along with a marked increase in IL-10 and effector cytokine production. These studies provide additional markers to delineate functionally distinct Treg subsets that may help direct cellular therapies and provide important phenotypic markers for assessing the role of Tregs in health and disease.

Herein, we present single-cell tran- scriptome profiling of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent histological lung cancer type diagnosed at stage IV in over 40% of all cases. From 208,506 cells populating the normal tissues or early to metastatic stage cancer in 44 patients, we identify a cancer cell subtype deviating from the normal differentiation trajectory and dominating the metastatic stage. In all stages, the stromal and immune cell dynamics reveal ontological and functional changes that create a pro-tumoral and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Normal resident myeloid cell populations are gradually replaced with monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells, along with T-cell exhaustion. This extensive single-cell analysis enhances our understanding of molecular and cellular dynamics in metastatic lung cancer and reveals potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets in cancer-microenvironment interactions. 1 Samsung Genome Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul 06351, Korea.

Primerano2 & James Denvir2 Th17 cells contribute to host defense on mucosal surfaces but also provoke autoimmune diseases when directed against self-antigens. Identifying therapeutic targets that regulate Th17 cell diferentiation and/or cytokine production has considerable value. Here, we study the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR)- dependent transcriptome in human CD4 T cells treated with Th17-inducing cytokines. We show that the AhR reciprocally regulates IL-17 and IL-22 production in human CD4 T cells. Global gene expression analysis revealed that AhR ligation decreased IL21 expression, correlating with delayed upregulation of RORC during culture with Th17-inducing cytokines. Several of the AhR-dependent genes have known roles in cellular assembly, organization, development, growth and proliferation. We further show that expression of GPR15, GPR55 and GPR68 positively correlates with IL-22 production in the presence of the AhR agonist FICZ. Activation of GPR68 with the lorazepam derivative ogerin resulted in suppression of IL-22 and IL-10 secretion by T cells, with no efect on IL-17. Under neutral Th0 conditions, ogerin and the Gq/11 receptor inhibitor YM254890 blunted IL-22 induction by FICZ. These data reveal the AhR- dependent transcriptome in human CD4 T cells and suggest the mechanism through which the AhR regulates T cell function may be partially dependent on Gq-coupled receptors including GPR68.

  • Phosphodiesterase Type 5 Inhibitors for the Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

The efficacy in this subgroup, based on the Global Efficacy Question, is 56% vs 84% in a selected group of non-diabetic men with ED. Two novel PDE5 inhibitors, tadalafil (Lilly ICOS) and vardenafil (Bayer), have recently completed efficacy and safety clinical trials in ‘general’ and diabetic study populations and are now candidates for US FDA approval. A summary analysis of the phase three clinical trials of sildenafil, tadalafil and vardenafil in both study populations is presented to provide a foundation on which the evaluation of the role of the individual PDE5 inhibitors for the treatment of patients with ED and DM can be built.
