Abstract
The success of checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) for cancer has been tempered by immune-related adverse effects including colitis. CPI-induced colitis is hallmarked by expansion of resident mucosal IFNγ cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, but how these arise is unclear. Here, we track CPI-bound T cells in intestinal tissue using multimodal single-cell and subcellular spatial transcriptomics (ST). Target occupancy was increased in inflamed tissue, with drug-bound T cells located in distinct microdomains distinguished by specific intercellular signaling and transcriptional gradients. CPI-bound cells were largely CD4+ T cells, including enrichment in CPI-bound peripheral helper, follicular helper, and regulatory T cells. IFNγ CD8+ T cells emerged from both tissue-resident memory (TRM) and peripheral populations, displayed more restricted target occupancy profiles, and co-localized with damaged epithelial microdomains lacking effective regulatory cues. Our multimodal analysis identifies causal pathways and constitutes a resource to inform novel preventive strategies.

Abstract
In this study, CCL25, a chemokine that contributes to the immunological function of the thymus and intestines, was detected in human breast milk (HBM) for the first time. We then focused on the correlations of CCL25 with CCL28, TSLP, and IL-7, which were predicted to interact with CCL25 in HBM. We also compared their levels between primiparous and multiparous women. A total of 53 parturient women were recruited. Their HBM was collected during 0-5 days and at 1 month after parturition and the CCL25, CCL28, IL-7, and TSLP levels in the HBM were analyzed using ELISA. The results showed that CCL25 and TSLP levels were significantly higher in colostrum than in mature milk. Moreover, CCL28 and IL-7 levels in colostrum showed a positive correlation. These results indicate that CCL28 and IL-7 in colostrum might interact positively with each other when produced in the mammary glands during lactation. The findings also suggest that the level of parity has no effect on their levels in HBM. In conclusion, our results clarify that CCL25 is present in HBM and that the concentrations of CCL25 and TSLP are higher in colostrum than in mature milk. Moreover, the production of CCL28 and IL-7 might be closely correlated in human colostrum.

Fcα Receptor-1-Activated Monocytes Promote B Lymphocyte Migration and IgA Isotype Switching. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911132. [PMID: 36232432 PMCID: PMC9569671 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231911132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2022] [Revised: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) produce enhanced immunoglobulin A (IgA) against the microbiota compared to healthy individuals, which has been correlated with disease severity. Since IgA complexes can potently activate myeloid cells via the IgA receptor FcαRI (CD89), excessive IgA production may contribute to IBD pathology. However, the cellular mechanisms that contribute to dysregulated IgA production in IBD are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that intestinal FcαRI-expressing myeloid cells (i.e., monocytes and neutrophils) are in close contact with B lymphocytes in the lamina propria of IBD patients. Furthermore, stimulation of FcαRI-on monocytes triggered production of cytokines and chemokines that regulate B-cell differentiation and migration, including interleukin-6 (IL6), interleukin-10 (IL10), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNFα), a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), and chemokine ligand-20 (CCL20). In vitro, these cytokines promoted IgA isotype switching in human B cells. Moreover, when naïve B lymphocytes were cultured in vitro in the presence of FcαRI-stimulated monocytes, enhanced IgA isotype switching was observed compared to B cells that were cultured with non-stimulated monocytes. Taken together, FcαRI-activated monocytes produced a cocktail of cytokines, as well as chemokines, that stimulated IgA switching in B cells, and close contact between B cells and myeloid cells was observed in the colons of IBD patients. As such, we hypothesize that, in IBD, IgA complexes activate myeloid cells, which in turn can result in excessive IgA production, likely contributing to disease pathology. Interrupting this loop may, therefore, represent a novel therapeutic strategy.

Yeast cell wall upregulated cell-mediated immune responses to Newcastle disease virus vaccine. Poult Sci 2022; 101:101712.

Abstract
A recent study has suggested that yeast cell wall product (YP) enhanced serum hemagglutination inhibition (HI) titers and intestinal sIgA responses in chickens immunized with Newcastle disease virus (NDV) vaccine. In the present study, the cell-mediated immune responses elicited by NDV and YP were investigated in commercial broilers. Broilers were fed 0 or 0.1% YP and immunized with a live NDV vaccine via an intraocular-and-intranasal route at 14 and 28 days old. After that, blood samples were collected for determination of HI titer, cytokine content, and blood analysis. Eight chickens were randomly selected from each group and sacrificed. Lymphocytes were harvested from the spleens for lymphocyte proliferation and flow cytometry analysis. Total RNA was extracted from spleen and jejunum for RT-qPCR analysis. The results showed that YP significantly increased serum concentration of IL-4, IL-6, IFN-γ, TNF-β, as well as promoted lymphocytes proliferation in broilers immunized with NDV vaccine. The enhanced cell-mediated immunity is correlated with the upregulated mRNA expression of TGF-β, IL-6, TLR5, GATA-3, and T-bet in the spleen and upregulated mRNA expression of CCR-9, J-chain, pIgR, and TLR3 in the jejunum of chickens. It is noteworthy that no significant side effect was observed after the administration of YP. Therefore, YP could be safely used as potential immunopotentiator assisting NDV vaccine for chickens.

Abstract
In addition to regulating immune responses by producing antibodies that confer humoral immunity, B cells can also affect these responses by producing cytokines. How B cells participate in the clearance of pathogenic infections via functions other than the production of pathogen-specific antibodies is still largely unknown. Marginal zone (MZ) B cells can quickly respond to bacterial invasion by providing the initial round of antibodies. After a bloodborne bacterial infection, neutrophils promptly migrate to the MZ. However, the mechanisms regulating neutrophil accumulation in the MZ during the initial phase of infection also remain obscure. Here, we found that MZ B cell-deficient mice are more susceptible to systemic Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection compared with wildtype mice. The expression levels of interleukin (IL)-6 and CXCL1/CXCL2 in MZ B cells increased significantly in mice at 3–4 h after infection with S. aureus, then decreased at 24 h post-infection. After systemic S. aureus infection, splenic neutrophils express increased CXCR2 levels. Our results from confocal microscopy imaging of thick-section staining demonstrate that neutrophils in wildtype mice form cell clusters and are in close contact with MZ B cells at 3 h post-infection. This neutrophil cluster formation shortly after infection was diminished in both MZ B cell-deficient mice and IL-6-deficient mice. Blocking the action of CXCL1/CXCL2 by injecting anti-CXCL1 and anti-CXCL2 antibodies 1 h before S. aureus infection significantly suppressed the recruitment of neutrophils to the MZ at 3 h post-infection. Compared with peptidoglycan stimulation alone, peptidoglycan stimulation with neutrophil co-culture further enhanced MZ B-cell activation and differentiation. Using a Förster resonance energy transfer by fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM-FRET) analysis, we observed evidence of a direct interaction between neutrophils and MZ B cells after peptidoglycan stimulation. Furthermore, neutrophil depletion in mice resulted in a reduced production of S. aureus-specific immunoglobulin (Ig)M at 24 h post-infection. Together, our results demonstrate that MZ B cells regulate the rapid neutrophil swarming into the spleen during the early phase of systemic S. aureus infection. Interaction with neutrophils assists MZ B cells with their differentiation into IgM-secreting cells and contributes to the clearance of systemic bacterial infections.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) causes an inflammatory response, and α-mangostin (α-MG) is an ingredient of a Chinese herbal medicine with anti-inflammatory effects. We investigated the mechanism by which α-MG reduces LPS-stimulated IEC-6 cells inflammation. A genome-wide examination of control, LPS-stimulated, and α-MG-pretreated cells was performed with the Illumina Hiseq sequencing platform, and gene expression was verified with quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Among the 37,199 genes profiled, 2014 genes were regulated in the LPS group, and 475 genes were regulated in the α-MG group. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analyses of the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) showed that they were mainly related to inflammation and oxidative stress. Based on the transcriptomic results, we constructed a rat model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with LPS and investigated the effects of α-MG on NLRP3 inflammasomes. After LPS stimulation, the rat intestinal villi were significantly detached, with congestion and hemorrhage; the intestinal epithelial cell nuclei were deformed; and the mitochondria were swollen. However, after pretreatment with α-MG, the intestinal villus congestion and hemorrhage were reduced, the epithelial nuclei were rounded, and the mitochondrial morphology was intact. qPCR and western blotting were used to detect NLRP3, caspase 1, interleukin (IL)-18, and IL-1β expression at the gene and protein levels. Their expression increased at both the transcript and protein levels after LPS stimulation, whereas it decreased after pretreatment with α-MG. This study provides new methods and ideas for the treatment of inflammation. α-MG may have utility as a drug for intestinal inflammation.

Abstract
Chemokine (C–C motif) ligand 19 (CCL19) is a critical regulator of the induction of T cell activation, immune tolerance, and inflammatory responses during continuous immune surveillance, homeostasis, and development. Migration of CC-chemokine receptor 7 (CCR7)-expressing cells to secondary lymphoid organs is a crucial step in the onset of adaptive immunity, which is initiated by a complex interaction between CCR7 and its cognate ligands. Recent advances in knowledge regarding the response of the CCL19-CCR7 axis to viral infections have elucidated the complex network of interplay among the invading virus, target cells and host immune responses. Viruses use various strategies to evade or delay the cytokine response, gaining additional time to replicate in the host. In this review, we summarize the impacts of CCL19 and CCR7 expression on the regulation of viral pathogenesis with an emphasis on the corresponding signaling pathways and adjuvant mechanisms. We present and discuss the expression, signaling adaptor proteins and effects of CCL19 and CCR7 as these molecules differentially impact different viral infections and viral life cycles in host homeostatic strategies. The underlying mechanisms discussed in this review may assist in the design of novel agents to modulate chemokine activity for viral prevention.

Peyer's patches-derived CD11b + B cells recruit regulatory T cells through CXCL9 in dextran sulphate sodium-induced colitis. Immunology 2018; 155:356-366.

Abstract
Regulatory T (Treg) cells play an essential role in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis. In Peyer's patches (PPs), which comprise the most important IgA induction site in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue, Treg cells promote IgA isotype switching. However, the mechanisms underlying their entry into PPs and isotype switching facilitation in activated B cells remain unknown. This study, based on the dextran sulphate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model, revealed that Treg cells are significantly increased in PPs, along with CD11b+ B-cell induction. Immunofluorescence staining showed that infiltrated Treg cells were located around CD11b+ B cells and produced transforming growth factor-β, thereby inducing IgA+ B cells. Furthermore, in vivo and in vitro studies revealed that CD11b+ B cells in PPs had the capacity to recruit Treg cells into PPs rather than promoting their proliferation. Finally, we found that Treg cell recruitment was mediated by the chemokine CXCL9 derived from CD11b+ B cells in PPs. These findings demonstrate that CD11b+ B cells induced in PPs during colitis actively recruit Treg cells to accomplish IgA isotype switch in a CXCL9-dependent manner.
