N-glycan in the variable region of monoclonal ACPA (CCP-Ab1) promotes the exacerbation of experimental arthritis. Rheumatology (Oxford) 2023; 62:3968-3977.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The variable region of most ACPA IgG molecules in the serum of RA patients carries N-glycan (N-glycanV). To analyse the pathogenicity of N-glycanV of ACPAs, we analysed the pathogenicity of a monoclonal ACPA, CCP-Ab1, with or without N-glycanV, which had been isolated from a patient with RA. METHODS CCP-Ab1 with no N-glycosylation site in the variable region (CCP-Ab1 N-rev) was generated, and antigen binding, the effect on in vitro differentiation of osteoclasts from bone marrow mononuclear cells of autoimmune arthritis-prone SKG mice (the cell size of TRAP+ cells and bone resorption capacity) and the in vivo effect on the onset or exacerbation of autoimmune arthritis in SKG mice were evaluated in comparison with glycosylated CCP-Ab1. RESULTS Amino acid residues in citrullinated peptide (cfc1), which are essential for binding to CCP-Ab1 N-rev and original CCP-Ab1, were almost identical. The size of TRAP+ cells was significantly larger and osteoclast bone resorption capacity was enhanced in the presence of CCP-Ab1, but not with CCP-Ab1 N-rev. This enhancing activity required the sialic acid of the N-glycan and Fc region of CCP-Ab1. CCP-Ab1, but not CCP-Ab1 N-rev, induced the exacerbation of experimental arthritis in the SKG mouse model. CONCLUSIONS These data showed that N-glycanV was required for promoting osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption activity in both in vitro and in vivo assays. The present study demonstrated the important role of N-glycanV in the exacerbation of experimental arthritis by ACPAs.

Siglec 15 as a biomarker or a druggable molecule for non-small cell lung cancer. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2023; 149:17651-17661.

Abstract
Lung cancer has been the main cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Furthermore, lung cancer rates of new cases per year evidenced a large incidence of this neoplasm in both men and women. Because there is no biomarker for early detection, it is frequently detected late, at an advanced state. The introduction of multiple lines of tyrosine kinase inhibitors in patients with EGFR, ALK, ROS1, and NTRK mutations has modified the therapy of lung cancer. Immunotherapy advances have resulted in substantial improvements in overall survival and disease-free survival, making immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) a potential option for lung cancer treatment. Current PD-1/PD-L1/CTLA-4 immunotherapies have resulted in important response and survival rates. However, existing medicines only function in around 20% of unselected, advanced NSCLC patients, and primary and acquired resistance remain unsolved obstacles. Therefore, precise predictive indicators must be identified to choose the best patients for ICI treatment. Thus, Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin 15 (Siglec-15) stands out as a potential tumor biomarker, with distinctive expression in normal tissues, in tumor immune involvement, and a high structural similarity to PD-L1. Understanding the tumor immune response and the search for new therapeutic targets leads to the improvement of therapeutic pathways directed at the tumor microenvironment. The present review aims to analyze Siglec-15 potential as a diagnostic, prognostic, and response biomarker in lung cancer, considering its results evidenced in the current literature.

[PMID: 37222841 PMCID: PMC10412655 DOI: 10.1007/s00428-023-03563-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
Core needle biopsies (CNB) are widely used to diagnose breast cancer, but the procedure is invasive and thus, it changes the tumor microenvironment. The purpose of this study is to see how the expression of three potentially anti-inflammatory molecules, namely, programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin-15 (Siglec-15), and C-C chemokine receptor-5 (CCR-5), are expressed in CNB and surgical resection specimens (SRS). To do this, we compared the amounts of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and the levels of CCR5, Siglec-15, and PD-L1 in tumor cells and inflammatory cells as assessed by immunohistochemistry in CNB and the corresponding SRS of 22 invasive breast carcinomas of no special type and 22 invasive lobular carcinomas. The Siglec-15 H-score was higher in tumor cells in the SRS than in the CNB groups. There was no change in tumor cells CCR5 or PD-L1 between CNB and SRS. The positive inflammatory cell numbers for all markers rose between CNB and SRS, as did the amount of Tils. Furthermore, higher grade tumors and tumors with a high proliferation rate had more inflammatory cells that were positive for the markers and also more PD-L1+ tumor cells. Although changes in inflammatory cells can partly be attributed to the larger sample size of operation specimens, the differences also mirror a true change in the tumor microenvironment. The changes in inflammatory cells could be partly due to the need to restrict excess inflammation at the site of the biopsy.

Immuno-PET Imaging of Siglec-15 Using the Zirconium-89-Labeled Therapeutic Antibody, NC318. Mol Imaging 2023.

Abstract
Objective. Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin 15 (Siglec-15) is overexpressed in various cancers which has led to the development of therapeutic anti-Siglec-15 monoconal antibodies (mAbs). In these preclinical studies, the therapeutic mAb, NC318 (antihuman/murine Siglec-15 mAb), was labeled with zirconium-89 and evaluated in human Siglec-15 expressing cancer cells and mouse xenografts for potential use as a clinical diagnostic imaging agent. Methods. Desferrioxamine-conjugated NC318 was radiolabeled with zirconium-89 to synthesize [89Zr]Zr-DFO-NC318. Cancer cell lines expressing variable Siglec-15 levels were used for in vitro cell binding studies and tumor xenograft mouse models for biodistributions. [89Zr]Zr-DFO-NC318 biodistribution and PET imaging studies to determine tissue uptakes (tissue : muscle ratios, T : M) included pharmacokinetic evaluation in Siglec-15+tumor xenografts and immunocompetent mice, blocking with nonradioactive NC318 (20, 100, and 300 μg) and xenografts with low/negligible Siglec-15 expressing tumors. Results. [89Zr]Zr-DFO-NC318 exhibited high affinity (
~4 nM) for Siglec-15 and distinguished between moderate and negligible Siglec-15 expression levels in cancer cell lines. The highest [89Zr]Zr-DFO-NC318 uptakes occurred in the spleen and lymph nodes of the Siglec-15+tumor xenografts at all time points followed by Siglec-15+tumor uptake which was lower although highly retained. In immunocompetent mice, the spleen and lymph nodes exhibited lower uptakes indicating that the athymic xenografts had increased Siglec-15+ immune cells. Specific [89Zr]Zr-DFO-NC318 binding to Siglec-15 was proven with NC318 blocking studies in which dose-dependent decreases in Siglec-15+tumor T : Ms were observed. Higher than expected, tumor T : Ms were seen in lower expressing tumors likely due to the contribution of murine Siglec-15+ immune cells in the tumor microenvironment as confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Siglec-15+tumors were identified on PET images whereas low/negligible expressing tumors showed lower uptakes. Conclusions. In vitro and in vivo [89Zr]Zr-DFO-NC318 uptakes correlated with Siglec-15 expression levels in target tissues. Despite uptake in immune cell subsets in the tumor microenvironment, these results suggest that clinical [89Zr]Zr-DFO-NC318 PET imaging may have value in selecting patients for Siglec-15-targeted therapies.

Abstract
Background Siglec-15 is expressed in a variety of cancers. However, the role of Siglec-15 in the prognosis of cancer patients remains controversial. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to clarify the potential prognostic value of Siglec-15 in solid tumors. Methods The PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and CNKI databases were comprehensively searched to identify studies assessing the effect of Siglec-15 on the survival of cancer patients. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) from individual studies were evaluated. Results The data from 13 observational studies consisting of 1376 patients were summarized. Elevated baseline Siglec-15 expression was significantly correlated with poor OS (pooled HR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.05-1.56; P = 0.013). However, high Siglec-15 expression predicted a significantly better DSS (pooled HR = 0.73 (95% CI: 0.57-0.94; P = 0.015) but not PFS (pooled HR = 1.49, 95% CI: 0.46-4.87; P=0.510). In addition, high Siglec-15 expression was not associated with PD-L1 (OR=0.64, 95% CI: 0.42-0.95; P = 0.028). High Siglec-15 expression was associated with male sex (OR = 1.39, 95% CI: 1.05-1.84; P = 0.022), larger tumor size (OR = 1.896, 95% CI: 1.26-2.9; P = 0.002), and advanced tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage (OR = 1.84; 95% CI: 1.19-2.84; P =0.006) in solid tumors. Conclusions This updated study suggested the expression of Siglec-15 is significantly associated with poor outcomes in human solid tumors, but further studies are needed to determine the prognostic value of Siglec-15 in solid tumors.

In Vitro Immunomodulatory Effects of Inonotus obliquus Extracts on Resting M0 Macrophages and LPS-Induced M1 Macrophages. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:8251344. [PMID: 35497923 PMCID: PMC9050302 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8251344] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2022] [Revised: 04/04/2022] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Background Inonotus obliquus (Chaga) is a parasitic fungus that is distributed mainly in northeast China. Our literature research showed chaga polysaccharides have bilateral effects on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β levels when they exert antitumor and antidiabetic activities. The current research tried to explore the influence of chaga extracts on inflammatory factors via macrophage polarization which has bilateral immune-regulation not only on healthy tissue homeostasis but also on pathologies. Methods Chaga was extracted with 100°C water and precipitated with 80% ethanol. The extracts were studied on RAW264.7 macrophage at resting condition (M0) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated subtype (classic activated macrophage, M1). The IL-1β, TNF-α, nitric oxide (NO) level, and the protein expressions of M1 and alternative activated macrophage (M2) markers including IL-1β, inducible NO synthase (iNOS), mannose receptor (CD206), and arginase (Arg)-1 were compared. Results The 100 g extracts contained 13.7 g polysaccharides and 1.9 g polyphenols. Compared with M0, the 50 μg/mL extracts increased NO level (P < 0.05) and decreased CD206 and Arg-1 expression significantly (P < 0.05). The extracts at 100–200 μg/mL increased NO and TNF-α level (P < 0.05), but increased iNOS and IL-1β expression significantly (P < 0.05). Compared with M1, the extracts decreased NO level at 25, 50, 100, and 200 μg/mL and decreased IL-1β and TNF-α level at 100–200 μg/mL significantly (P < 0.05). At 25–200 μg/mL, the extracts significantly increased CD206 and Arg-1 expression and decreased IL-1β and iNOS expression separately (P < 0.05). Conclusions Our research suggested that the bilateral effects of the chaga extracts on iNOS, IL-1β, and NO level on M0/M1 macrophages might be related with chaga polysaccharides and chaga polyphenols. Some in vivo anticancer and antidiabetic research of purified chaga polysaccharides related to macrophage differentiation should be conducted further.
