While fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in mitochondria is a primary energy source for quiescent lymphocytes, the impact of promoting FAO in activated lymphocytes undergoing metabolic reprogramming remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that pemafibrate, a selective PPARα modulator used clinically for the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia, transforms metabolic system of T-cells and alleviates several autoimmune diseases. Pemafibrate suppresses Th17 cells but not Th1 cells, through the inhibition of glutaminolysis and glycolysis initiated by enhanced FAO. In contrast, a conventional PPARα agonist fenofibrate significantly inhibits cell growth by restraining overall metabolisms even at a dose insufficient to induce fatty acid oxidation. Clinically, patients receiving pemafibrate showed a significant decrease of Th17/Treg ratio in peripheral blood. Our results suggest that augmented FAO by pemafibrate-mediated selective activation of PPARα restrains metabolic programs of Th17 cells and could be a viable option for the treatment of autoimmune diseases.

线粒体中的脂肪酸氧化(FAO)是静止淋巴细胞的主要能量来源,而促进线粒体中的脂肪酸氧化对正在进行代谢重编程的活化淋巴细胞的影响尚不清楚。在这里,我们证明了培马贝特--一种在临床上用于治疗高甘油三酯血症的选择性 PPARα 调节剂--能改变 T 细胞的代谢系统并缓解多种自身免疫性疾病。培马贝特通过抑制由 FAO 增强引发的谷氨酰胺酵解和糖酵解,抑制 Th17 细胞,但不抑制 Th1 细胞。与此相反,传统的 PPARα 激动剂非诺贝特通过抑制整体代谢显著抑制细胞生长,即使剂量不足以诱导脂肪酸氧化。在临床上,接受非诺贝特治疗的患者外周血中Th17/Treg比率明显下降。我们的研究结果表明,通过培马贝特介导的 PPARα 选择性激活,增强了脂肪酸氧化,从而抑制了 Th17 细胞的代谢程序,这可能是治疗自身免疫性疾病的一种可行方案。

Leveraging pleiotropy identifies common-variant associations with selective IgA deficiency 利用多态性确定选择性 IgA 缺乏症的共变体关联。
IF 4.5 3区 医学 Q2 IMMUNOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-09-04 DOI: 10.1016/j.clim.2024.110356

Selective IgA deficiency (SIgAD) is the most common inborn error of immunity (IEI). Unlike many IEIs, evidence of a role for highly penetrant rare variants in SIgAD is lacking. Previous SIgAD studies have had limited power to identify common variants due to their small sample size. We overcame this problem first through meta-analysis of two existing GWAS. This identified four novel common-variant associations and enrichment of SIgAD-associated variants in genes linked to Mendelian IEIs. SIgAD showed evidence of shared genetic architecture with serum IgA and a number of immune-mediated diseases. We leveraged this pleiotropy through the conditional false discovery rate procedure, conditioning our SIgAD meta-analysis on large GWAS of asthma and rheumatoid arthritis, and our own meta-analysis of serum IgA. This identified an additional 18 variants, increasing the number of known SIgAD-associated variants to 27 and strengthening the evidence for a polygenic, common-variant aetiology for SIgAD.

选择性 IgA 缺乏症(SIgAD)是最常见的先天性免疫错误(IEI)。与许多先天性免疫缺陷(IEI)不同,目前还没有证据表明高渗透性罕见变异在 SIgAD 中起作用。以往的 SIgAD 研究由于样本量小,识别常见变异的能力有限。我们首先通过对现有的两项全球基因组研究进行荟萃分析,克服了这一问题。这发现了四个新的共同变异关联,并在与孟德尔IEIs相关的基因中富集了SIgAD相关变异。有证据表明,SIgAD 与血清 IgA 和一些免疫介导疾病具有共同的遗传结构。我们通过条件假发现率程序利用了这一多向性,将哮喘和类风湿性关节炎的大型 GWAS 以及我们自己对血清 IgA 的荟萃分析作为 SIgAD 荟萃分析的条件。这又发现了 18 个变体,使已知的 SIgAD 相关变体增加到 27 个,从而加强了 SIgAD 多基因、共变体病因学的证据。

The anti-mCRP199–206 antibodies aggravate tubulointerstitial lesions in lupus nephritis 抗mCRP199-206抗体会加重狼疮肾炎的肾小管间质病变。

Tubulointerstitial lesions could also be prominent in lupus nephritis, and the pathogenesis of tubulointerstitial lesions may be different from glomerular lesions. Previous studies have showed that plasma antibodies against modified /monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP) are associated with renal tubulointerstitial lesions in patients with lupus nephritis, and amino acid (aa) 199–206 was one of the major epitopes of mCRP. However, the role of anti-mCRP199–206 antibodies in the pathogenesis of tubulointerstitial lesions in lupus nephritis is unknown. A total of 95 patients with renal biopsy-proven lupus nephritis were enrolled in this study. Plasma levels of anti-mCRP199–206 antibodies were screened by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A lupus prone mouse model was immunized using peptides mCRP199–206 to explore the potential role of anti-mCRP199–206 antibodies in tubulointerstitial lesions. The mechanism of anti-mCRP199–206 antibodies damage to renal tubular epithelial cells was investigated in vitro. Plasma antibodies against mCRP199–206 were associated with renal tubulointerstitial lesions and prognosis in patients with lupus nephritis. Immunization with peptides mCRP199–206 in lupus prone mice could aggravate tubulointerstitial lesions and drive tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis. Anti-mCRP 199–206 antibodies could activate the TGF-β1/Smad3 signal pathway and induce tubular damage by binding with CRP. Circulating antibodies against mCRP199–206 could be a biomarker to reveal tubulointerstitial lesion, and participate in the pathogenesis of tubulointerstitial lesions, which might provide a potential therapeutic target for lupus nephritis.

狼疮肾炎的肾小管间质病变也可能很突出,而肾小管间质病变的发病机制可能与肾小球病变不同。先前的研究表明,狼疮肾炎患者血浆中的修饰/单体C反应蛋白(mCRP)抗体与肾小管间质病变有关,而氨基酸(aa)199-206是mCRP的主要表位之一。然而,抗 mCRP199-206 抗体在狼疮肾炎肾小管间质病变发病机制中的作用尚不清楚。本研究共招募了95名经肾活检证实的狼疮性肾炎患者。通过酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)检测了血浆中抗 mCRP199-206 抗体的水平。使用多肽 mCRP199-206 免疫狼疮易感小鼠模型,以探讨抗 mCRP199-206 抗体在肾小管间质病变中的潜在作用。体外研究了抗 mCRP199-206 抗体对肾小管上皮细胞的损伤机制。血浆中的mCRP199-206抗体与狼疮性肾炎患者的肾小管间质病变和预后有关。对狼疮易感小鼠进行多肽 mCRP199-206 免疫可加重肾小管间质病变,促使肾小管间质炎症和纤维化。抗 mCRP 199-206 抗体可激活 TGF-β1/Smad3 信号通路,并通过与 CRP 结合诱发肾小管损伤。循环中的mCRP199-206抗体可作为揭示肾小管间质病变的生物标志物,并参与肾小管间质病变的发病机制,从而为狼疮性肾炎提供潜在的治疗靶点。

De novo glomerulonephritis associated with IgA anti-GBM alloantibodies after kidney transplantation in Alport syndrome: A case report with diagnostic implications 阿尔波特综合征肾移植后与 IgA 抗 GBM 同种抗体相关的新生肾小球肾炎:具有诊断意义的病例报告。

Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary disorder caused by pathogenic variants in COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5 genes expressing α3, α4, and α5 chains of basement membrane type IV collagen (COL4). The triple-helical α3α4α5(IV) protomer is a major component of the mature glomerular basement membrane (GBM) whose defective formation in AS leads to structural GBM disruption and kidney dysfunction, often resulting in kidney replacement therapy. A genetically intact renal graft exposes the immune system to a non-tolerized α3α4α5(IV) component and an alloimmune response eventually ensues. So far, only IgG alloantibodies reacting against COL4 have been reported in AS alloimmune responses. Here, we report alloimmune glomerulonephritis mediated by IgA antibodies against the non-collagenous C-terminal domain 1 of the α5(IV) chain in a patient with autosomal recessive AS following a second kidney transplantation. The patient presented a not previously described biallelic variant in the COL4A4 gene. Immunological, diagnostic, and clinical implications are discussed.

阿尔波特综合征(AS)是一种遗传性疾病,由表达基底膜Ⅳ型胶原蛋白(COL4)的α3、α4和α5链的COL4A3、COL4A4或COL4A5基因的致病变异引起。三重螺旋α3α4α5(IV)原基是成熟肾小球基底膜(GBM)的主要成分,在强直性脊柱炎中其形成缺陷会导致GBM结构破坏和肾功能障碍,通常导致肾脏替代疗法。基因完整的肾脏移植会使免疫系统接触到不能耐受的α3α4α5(IV)成分,最终产生同种免疫反应。迄今为止,在强直性脊柱炎同种免疫反应中仅有与 COL4 反应的 IgG 同种抗体的报道。在这里,我们报告了一名常染色体隐性遗传强直性脊柱炎患者在第二次肾移植后出现的针对α5(IV)链非胶原蛋白C端结构域1的IgA抗体介导的同种免疫性肾小球肾炎。该患者的 COL4A4 基因出现了一种以前从未描述过的双倍重复变异。本文讨论了免疫学、诊断和临床意义。

Biliary atresia (BA) is a severe pediatric liver disease characterized by progressive bile duct destruction and fibrosis, leading to significant liver damage and frequently necessitating liver transplantation. This study elucidates the role of LOX-1+ polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSCs) in BA pathogenesis and assesses their potential as non-invasive early diagnostic biomarkers. Using flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, and molecular profiling, we analyzed the expression and activity of these cells in peripheral blood and liver tissues from BA patients and controls. Our findings reveal a significant increase in the frequencies and function of LOX-1+PMN-MDSCs in BA patients, along with MAPK signaling pathway upregulation, indicating their involvement in disease mechanisms. Additionally, the frequencies of LOX-1+PMN-MDSC in peripheral blood significantly positively correlate with liver function parameters in BA patients, demonstrating diagnostic performance comparable to traditional serum markers. These findings suggest that LOX-1+PMN-MDSCs contribute to the immunosuppressive environment in BA and could serve as potential diagnostic targets.

Platelets are crucial for thrombosis and hemostasis. Importantly, they contain mitochondria that are responsible for energy generation and therefore vital for platelet survival and activation. Activated platelets can release mitochondria that may be free or encapsulated in platelet extracellular vesicles (EVs). Extruded mitochondria are a well-known source of mitochondrial DNA, and mitochondrial antigens that can be targeted by autoantibodies forming immune complexes (IC). Interaction of IC with the platelet cell surface FcγRIIA receptor results in platelet activation and release of platelet granule components. In this review, we summarize how platelets and mitochondria may contribute to the pathogenesis of different autoimmune and musculoskeletal diseases. Targeting key drivers of mitochondrial extrusion may ultimately lead to urgently needed targeted pharmacological interventions for treating inflammation and thrombotic diathesis, and halting organ damage in some of these rheumatological conditions.

血小板对血栓形成和止血至关重要。重要的是,它们含有负责产生能量的线粒体,因此对血小板的存活和活化至关重要。活化的血小板可释放线粒体,这些线粒体可能是游离的,也可能包裹在血小板胞外囊泡(EVs)中。众所周知,挤出的线粒体是线粒体 DNA 和线粒体抗原的来源,这些抗原可被形成免疫复合物(IC)的自身抗体靶向。IC 与血小板细胞表面的 FcγRIIA 受体相互作用,导致血小板活化并释放血小板颗粒成分。在这篇综述中,我们总结了血小板和线粒体如何可能导致不同的自身免疫性疾病和肌肉骨骼疾病的发病机制。针对线粒体挤压的关键驱动因素可能最终导致急需的靶向药物干预,以治疗炎症和血栓形成,并阻止其中一些风湿病的器官损伤。

Atherosclerosis is a cardiovascular disease caused by cholesterol-laden arterial plaques. This study evaluated the correlation between interleukin-6 (IL-6), its receptors (IL6R/CD126), and glycoprotein 130 (gp130) alongside atherosclerosis biomarkers in a cohort of 142 subjects, equally divided between lean and obese individuals. Subsequent analyses used THP-1-derived macrophages to assess the biochemical impact of inhibiting IL-6 receptors. IL-6 secretion increased with atherosclerosis in obese subjects, while IL6R/CD126 and gp130 on monocytes decreased. Pharmacological gp130 inhibition altered lipid metabolism, increasing LDLR gene expression and cholesterol synthesis via SREBF2 and mevalonate kinase, along with HMG-CoA reductase at protein levels. gp130-deficient cells produced more cholesterol and had lower ABCA1 levels, suggesting hindered cholesterol efflux. Filipin III staining confirmed cholesterol retention in gp130-inhibited cells. Ex-vivo investigation on lean PBMCs further defined the impact of gp130 inhibition on the reduction of cholesterol efflux. Our results indicates gp130 is crucial for macrophage reverse cholesterol transport and may be a target for atherosclerosis treatments.

动脉粥样硬化是一种由富含胆固醇的动脉斑块引起的心血管疾病。本研究评估了白细胞介素-6(IL-6)、其受体(IL6R/CD126)和糖蛋白 130(gp130)与动脉粥样硬化生物标志物之间的相关性。随后的分析使用 THP-1 衍生巨噬细胞来评估抑制 IL-6 受体对生化的影响。肥胖者的 IL-6 分泌会随着动脉粥样硬化而增加,而单核细胞上的 IL6R/CD126 和 gp130 则会减少。药理 gp130 抑制改变了脂质代谢,增加了 LDLR 基因表达,通过 SREBF2 和甲羟戊酸激酶增加了胆固醇合成,同时在蛋白水平上增加了 HMG-CoA 还原酶。Filipin III 染色证实了胆固醇在 gp130 抑制细胞中的滞留。对瘦的 PBMCs 进行的体内外调查进一步确定了 gp130 抑制对胆固醇外流减少的影响。我们的研究表明,gp130 对巨噬细胞胆固醇反向转运至关重要,可能成为动脉粥样硬化治疗的靶点。

IL-17 in skin infections and homeostasis 皮肤感染和稳态中的 Il-17。
IF 4.5 3区 医学 Q2 IMMUNOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-08-30 DOI: 10.1016/j.clim.2024.110352

Interleukin (IL) 17 is a proinflammatory cytokine belonging to a structurally related group of cytokines known as the IL-17 family. It has been profoundly studied for its contribution to the pathology of autoimmune diseases. However, it also plays an important role in homeostasis and the defense against extracellular bacteria and fungi. IL-17 is important for epithelial barriers, including the skin, where some of its cellular targets reside. Most of the research work on IL-17 has focused on its effects in the skin within the context of autoimmune diseases or sterile inflammation, despite also having impact on other skin conditions. In recent years, studies on the role of IL-17 in the defense against skin pathogens and in the maintenance of skin homeostasis mediated by the microbiota have grown in importance. Here we review and discuss the cumulative evidence regarding the main contribution of IL-17 in the maintenance of skin integrity as well as its protective or pathogenic effects during some skin infections.

白细胞介素(IL)17 是一种促炎细胞因子,属于一组结构相关的细胞因子,被称为 IL-17 家族。人们对它在自身免疫性疾病病理学中的作用进行了深入研究。不过,它在体内平衡以及抵御细胞外细菌和真菌方面也发挥着重要作用。IL-17 对包括皮肤在内的上皮屏障非常重要,它的一些细胞靶点就位于皮肤上。尽管 IL-17 对其他皮肤病也有影响,但大多数有关 IL-17 的研究都集中在它对自身免疫性疾病或无菌性炎症皮肤的影响上。近年来,有关 IL-17 在防御皮肤病原体和维持由微生物群介导的皮肤稳态中的作用的研究越来越重要。在此,我们回顾并讨论了有关 IL-17 在维护皮肤完整性方面的主要贡献及其在某些皮肤感染中的保护或致病作用的累积证据。

Multi-modal immune dynamics of pre-COVID-19 Kawasaki Disease following intravenous immunoglobulin 静脉注射免疫球蛋白后,COVID-19 前川崎病的多模式免疫动态变化。
IF 4.5 3区 医学 Q2 IMMUNOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-08-24 DOI: 10.1016/j.clim.2024.110349

Despite progress, the molecular mechanisms underlying Kawasaki Disease (KD) and intravenous immunoglobulin's (IVIG) ability to mitigate the inflammatory process remain poorly understood. To characterize this condition, plasma proteomic profiles, flow cytometry, and gene expression of T cell subsets were investigated in longitudinal samples from KD patients and compared with two control groups. Systems-level analysis of samples in the acute phase revealed distinctive inflammatory features of KD, involving mainly Th-1 and Th-17 mediators and unveiled a potential disease severity signature. APBB1IP demonstrated an association with coronary artery involvement (CAI) and was significantly higher in CAI+ compared to CAI- patients. Integrative analysis revealed a transient reduction in CD4+ EM T cells and a comprehensive immune activation and exhaustion. Following treatment, Tregs at both frequency and gene expression levels revealed immune dynamics of recovery. Overall, our data provide insights into KD, which may offer valuable information on prognostic indicators and possible targets for novel treatments.

尽管取得了进展,但人们对川崎病(KD)的分子机制以及静脉注射免疫球蛋白(IVIG)缓解炎症过程的能力仍然知之甚少。为了描述川崎病的特征,研究人员对川崎病患者的纵向样本进行了血浆蛋白质组图谱、流式细胞术和 T 细胞亚群基因表达的研究,并与两个对照组进行了比较。对急性期样本进行的系统级分析揭示了KD独特的炎症特征,主要涉及Th-1和Th-17介质,并揭示了潜在的疾病严重性特征。APBB1IP与冠状动脉受累(CAI)有关,在CAI+患者中明显高于CAI-患者。综合分析表明,CD4+ EM T细胞短暂减少,免疫系统全面激活和衰竭。治疗后,Tregs在频率和基因表达水平上都显示出免疫动态恢复。总之,我们的数据提供了对 KD 的见解,这可能会为预后指标和新型治疗的可能靶点提供有价值的信息。

Effect of DNA methylation at the CTLA4 gene on the clinical status of autoimmune thyroid diseases CTLA4 基因的 DNA 甲基化对自身免疫性甲状腺疾病临床状况的影响。
IF 4.5 3区 医学 Q2 IMMUNOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-08-13 DOI: 10.1016/j.clim.2024.110338

The pathogenesis and manifestation of autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs), Graves' disease (GD), and Hashimoto's disease (HD) are associated with T cell activation. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) plays a crucial role in the regulation of T cell activation. DNA methylation levels of eight CpG sites in the CTLA4 gene and expression levels of soluble CTLA-4 were examined. Methylation levels of +22 CpG and CT60 CpG-SNPs in patients with GD and HD with the CT60 GG genotype were lower than those in control subjects. Methylation levels of the-15 CpG sites were lower in patients with intractable GD than those in GD patients in remission. These results suggest that demethylation of +22 CpG and CT60 CpG-SNPs may be associated with susceptibility to GD and HD in subjects with the CTLA4 CT60 GG genotype, and that demethylation of −15 CpG may be associated with the intractability of GD.

自身免疫性甲状腺疾病(AITD)、巴塞杜氏病(GD)和桥本氏病(HD)的发病机制和表现与T细胞活化有关。细胞毒性T淋巴细胞相关抗原4(CTLA-4)在T细胞活化的调控中起着至关重要的作用。研究人员检测了 CTLA4 基因中八个 CpG 位点的 DNA 甲基化水平和可溶性 CTLA-4 的表达水平。具有 CT60 GG 基因型的 GD 和 HD 患者 +22 CpG 和 CT60 CpG-SNPs 的甲基化水平低于对照组。难治性 GD 患者 15 CpG 位点的甲基化水平低于缓解期 GD 患者。这些结果表明,+22 CpG和CT60 CpG-SNPs的去甲基化可能与CTLA4 CT60 GG基因型受试者对GD和HD的易感性有关,而-15 CpG的去甲基化可能与GD的难治性有关。
