Abstract
The COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) is a well-defined viral infection, resulting from SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome- coronavirus-2). The innate immune system serves as the first line of defense to limit viral spreading and subsequently stimulate adaptive immune responses by the prominent aids of its cellular and molecular arms. Monocytes are defined as the most prominent innate immune cells (IICs) that are reactive against invading pathogens. These cells support host protection against the virus that is mediated by several non-specific mechanisms such as phagocytosis, producing antiviral enzymes, and recruitment of immune cells toward and into the infected tissues. They have the ability to egress from blood and migrate to the SARS-CoV-2 infected regions by the aid of some defense-related functions like chemotaxis, which is mediated by chemical compounds, e.g., chemokines. Chemokines, in addition to their related ligands are categorized within the most important and deserved agents involved in oriented trafficking of monocytes/macrophages towards and within the lung parenchyma in both steady state and pathological circumstances, including COVID-19-raised infection. However, the overexpression of chemokines could have deleterious effects on various organs through the induction of cytokine storm and may be the most important leading mechanisms in the pathogenesis of COVID-19. Authors have aimed the current review article to describe present knowledge about the interplay between monocytes/macrophages and SARS-CoV-2 with a focus on the ability of IICs to migrate and home into the lung of COVID-19 patients through various chemokine-chemokine receptor axes to promote our understanding regarding this disease.

Darvish Z, Kheder RK, Faraj TA, Najmaldin SK, Mollazadeh S, Nosratabadi R, Esmaeili SA. A better understanding of the role of the CTLA-CD80/86 axis in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Cell Biochem Funct 2024; 42:e3895. [PMID: 38050849 DOI: 10.1002/cbf.3895] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023]
Abstract
Autoimmune diseases are diseases in which the regulatory mechanisms of the immune response are disturbed. As a result, the body loses self-tolerance. Since one of the main regulatory mechanisms of the immune response is the CTLA4-CD80/86 axis, this hypothesis suggests that autoimmune diseases potentially share a similar molecular basis of pathogenesis. Hence, investigating the CTLA4-CD80/86 axis may be helpful in finding an appropriate treatment strategy. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the molecular basis of the CTLA4-CD80/86 axis in the regulation of the immune response, and then its role in developing some autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes, and multiple sclerosis. As well, the main therapeutic strategies affecting the CTLA4-CD80/86 axis have been summarized to highlight the importance of this axis in management of autoimmune diseases.

A new generation of mesenchymal stromal/stem cells differentially trained by immunoregulatory probiotics in a lupus microenvironment. Stem Cell Res Ther 2023; 14:358. [PMID: 38072921 PMCID: PMC10712058 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-023-03578-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing evidence suggests that multipotent mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are a promising intervention strategy in treating autoimmune inflammatory diseases. It should be stated that systemic immunoregulation is increasingly recognized among the beneficial effects of MSCs and probiotics in treating morbid autoimmune disorders such as lupus. This study aimed to determine if immunoregulatory probiotics L. rhamnosus or L. delbrueckii can change the immunomodulatory effects of MSCs in lupus-like disease. METHODS Pristane-induced lupus (PIL) mice model was created via intraperitoneal injection of Pristane and then confirmed. Naïve MSCs (N-MSCs) were coincubated with two Lactobacillus strains, rhamnosus (R-MSCs) or delbrueckii (D-MSCs), and/or a combination of both (DR-MSCs) for 48 h, then administrated intravenously in separate groups. Negative (PBS-treated normal mice) and positive control groups (PBS-treated lupus mice) were also investigated. At the end of the study, flow cytometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis were used to determine the percentage of Th cell subpopulations in splenocytes and the level of their master cytokines in sera, respectively. Moreover, lupus nephritis was investigated and compared. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used for multiple comparisons. RESULTS Abnormalities in serum levels of anti-dsDNA antibodies, creatinine, and urine proteinuria were significantly suppressed by MSCs transplantation, whereas engrafted MSCs coincubation with both L. strains did a lesser effect on anti-dsDNA antibodies. L. rhamnosus significantly escalated the ability of MSCs to scale down the inflammatory cytokines (IFN-ɣ, IL-17), while L. delbrueckii significantly elevated the capacity of MSCs to scale down the percentage of Th cell subpopulations. However, incubation with both strains induced MSCs with augmented capacity in introducing inflammatory cytokines (IFN-ɣ, IL-17). Strikingly, R-MSCs directly restored the serum level of TGF-β more effectively and showed more significant improvement in disease parameters than N-MSCs. These results suggest that R-MSCs significantly attenuate lupus disease by further skew the immune phenotype of MSCs toward increased immunoregulation. CONCLUSIONS Results demonstrated that Lactobacillus strains showed different capabilities in training/inducing new abilities in MSCs, in such a way that pretreated MSCs with L. rhamnosus might benefit the treatment of lupus-like symptoms, given their desirable properties.

Giant primary intracranial multi-fossa leiomyosarcoma involving the frontal sinus, ethmoid air cells, anterior fossa, middle fossa, and intraventricular space: A case report and literature review. Surg Neurol Int 2023; 14:384. [PMID: 37941634 PMCID: PMC10629320 DOI: 10.25259/sni_647_2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Leiomyosarcomas (LMSs) is a type of sarcoma that arises from smooth muscle and generally presents in the abdomen. Although intracranial LMS has been identified before, most reported presentations have been in immunocompromised patients. Here, we present an intracranial LMS in an immunocompetent patient. Case Description A 22-year-old male with a history of an atypical pineal parenchymal tumor of intermediate differentiation resected by suboccipital craniotomy at the age of 12 followed by adjuvant radiation therapy, presented with 3 weeks of decreased appetite, weight loss, and lethargy. He subsequently underwent transbasal approach skull base tumor resection. Histologic examination of the mass along with the patient's history of radiation was supportive of a low-grade, radiation-induced LMS arising from the anterior fossa of the skull or meninges and extends to the frontal sinus and ethmoid air cells. Conclusion Primary intracranial LMS is an extremely rare diagnosis and presenting symptoms vary with the location and size of the tumor. Due to the poor specificity of clinical symptoms, diagnosis is often based on histology. The most common treatment is surgical resection. Adjuvant chemotherapy with various agents has been found to be somewhat effective outside the central nervous system. When LMS does occur, a history of immunocompromised state or previous radiation exposure is often present. Pathological confirmation is required for an appropriate diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Several studies have reported that mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) may improve neurological functions in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). In this study, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarize the effects of MSC treatment on different degrees of severity of SCI. METHODS Systematic searching of studies reporting outcomes of MSCs on specific injury severities of patients with SCI was performed in The National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE), Embase and Cochrane for published articles up to the 6 July 2022. Two investigators independently reviewed the included studies and extracted the relevant data. The standardized mean differences of American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) motor score, ASIA light touch scores, ASIA pinprick scores and the Barthel index between baseline and follow-ups were pooled. RESULTS A total of eight studies were included. A large majority focused on patients with ASIA grade A classification. The pooled mean differences of ASIA motor scores, ASIA light touch scores, ASIA pinprick scores and the Barthel index were -2.78 (95% confidence interval [CI] -5.12 to -0.43, P = 0.02), -18.26 (95% CI -26.09 to -10.43, P < 0.01), -17.08 (95% CI -24.10 to -10.07, P < 0.01) and -4.37 (95% CI -10.96 to 2.22, P = 0.19), respectively. CONCLUSIONS MSC transplantation was a significantly effective therapy for patients with SCI with ASIA grade A. In the future, further studies are warranted to confirm the potential beneficial effects of MSC therapy.

Abstract
Acute inflammatory diseases such as acute colitis, kidney injury, liver failure, lung injury, myocardial infarction, pancreatitis, septic shock, and spinal cord injury are significant causes of death worldwide. Despite advances in the understanding of its pathophysiology, there are many restrictions in the treatment of these diseases, and new therapeutic approaches are required. Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy due to immunomodulatory and regenerative properties is a promising candidate for acute inflammatory disease management. Based on preclinical results, mesenchymal stem cells and their-derived secretome improved immunological and clinical parameters. Furthermore, many clinical trials of acute kidney, liver, lung, myocardial, and spinal cord injury have yielded promising results. In this review, we try to provide a comprehensive view of mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy in acute inflammatory diseases as a new treatment approach.

Abstract
Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a member of the IL-1 family and plays an ambivalent role in autoimmune diseases. IL-33 signals via the ST2 receptor and drives cytokine production in mast cells, basophils, eosinophils, NK cells, and T lymphocyte cells. The vital role of IL-33 as an active component gives rise to aberrant local and systemic damage which has been demonstrated in numerous inflammatory disorders and immune-mediated pathological conditions including multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), psoriasis, Sjogren's syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), etc. IL-33/ST2 axis can up-regulate pro-inflammatory cytokine release in autoimmune disease, however, in some metabolic diseases like diabetes mellitus type 1 IL-33 can be considered an anti-inflammatory cytokine. The purpose of this review is to discuss selected studies on IL-33/ST2 axis in autoimmune diseases and its potential role as a pathogenic or protective cytokine.

Abstract
Potency analysis of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) is required for their use in advanced clinical trials. Assay matrix strategy evaluating more than a single property of MSCs is an emerging strategy in potency analysis. Here we developed an assay matrix approach focusing on the secretory chemokine responses of MSCs using multiplex analytical method. MSCs’ innate fitness in secreting matrix of chemokines is correlated with their metabolic fitness in differential degrees. In addition, innately secreting chemokines are correlated among themselves in a unique pattern. MSC’s matrix chemokine responses to exogenous stimulation of IFNγ and/or TNFα are distinct. However, the combination of IFNγ and TNFα is superior than individual stimulations in eliciting robust and broad matrix chemokine responses of MSCs. Correlation matrix analysis has identified that chemokine responses to IFNγ and/or TNFα display unique correlative secretion patterns. MSC and peripheral blood mononuclear cells coculture analysis has identified the correlation matrix responses of chemokines that predicted immune suppression. In addition, MSC-mediated blocking of T-cell proliferation predominantly correlates with chemokines in an inverse manner. Knockdown of chemokines has demonstrated that MSC-sourced inherent chemokines do not actively play a role in T-cell suppression and thus are the bystander predictors of T-cell suppression. The present analysis of MSC’s matrix chemokine responses can be deployed in the advanced potency analysis of MSCs.

Abstract
Despite multimodal approaches for the treatment of multiforme glioblastoma (GBM) advances in outcome have been very modest indicating the necessity of novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Currently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent a promising platform for cell-based cancer therapies because of their tumor-tropism, low immunogenicity, easy accessibility, isolation procedure, and culturing. In the present study, we assessed the tumor-tropism and biodistribution of the superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle (SPION)-labeled MSCs in the orthotopic model of C6 glioblastoma in Wistar rats. As shown in in vitro studies employing confocal microscopy, high-content quantitative image cytometer, and xCelligence system MSCs exhibit a high migratory capacity towards C6 glioblastoma cells. Intravenous administration of SPION-labeled MSCs in vivo resulted in intratumoral accumulation of the tagged cells in the tumor tissues that in turn significantly enhanced the contrast of the tumor when high-field magnetic resonance imaging was performed. Subsequent biodistribution studies employing highly sensitive nonlinear magnetic response measurements (NLR-M2) supported by histological analysis confirm the retention of MSCs in the glioblastoma. In conclusion, MSCs due to their tumor-tropism could be employed as a drug-delivery platform for future theranostic approaches.
