Abstract
The interleukin 1 (IL-1) family plays a significant role in the innate immune response. IL-1 receptor 2 (IL-1R2) is the decoy receptor of IL-1. It is a negative regulator that can be subdivided into membrane-bound and soluble types. IL-1R2 plays a role in the IL-1 family mainly through the following mechanisms: formation of inactive signaling complexes upon binding to the receptor auxiliary protein and inhibition of ligand IL-1 maturation. This review covers the roles of IL-1R2 in kidney disorders. Chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, lupus nephritis, IgA nephropathy, renal clear cell carcinoma, rhabdoid tumor of kidney, kidney transplantation, and kidney infection were all shown to have abnormal IL-1R2 expression. IL-1R2 may be a potential marker and a promising therapeutic target for kidney disease.

Abstract
Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy, with an increasing trend in the past decades. It has a variety of different histological subtypes, the most frequent one being differentiated thyroid cancer, which refers to papillary carcinoma, the most common histological type, followed by follicular carcinoma. Associations between genetic polymorphisms and thyroid cancer have been investigated over the years and are an intriguing topic for the scientific world. To date, the results of associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms, the most common genetic variations in the genome, with thyroid cancer have been inconsistent, but many promising results could potentially influence future research toward developing new targeted therapies and new prognostic biomarkers, thus consolidating a more personalized management for these patients. This review focuses on emphasizing the existing literature data regarding genetic polymorphisms investigated for their potential association with differentiated thyroid cancer and highlights the opportunity of using genetic variations as biomarkers of diagnosis and prognosis for thyroid cancer patients.

Interleukin-33 Exacerbates IgA Glomerulonephritis in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing B Cell Activating Factor. J Am Soc Nephrol 2022; 33:966-984. [PMID: 35387873 PMCID: PMC9063894 DOI: 10.1681/asn.2021081145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2021] [Accepted: 02/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The cytokine IL-33 is an activator of innate lymphoid cells 2 (ILC2s) in innate immunity and allergic inflammation. B cell activating factor (BAFF) plays a central role in B cell proliferation and differentiation, and high levels of this protein cause excess antibody production, including IgA. BAFF-transgenic mice overexpress BAFF and spontaneously develop glomerulonephritis that resembles human IgA nephropathy. METHODS We administered IL-33 or PBS to wild-type and BAFF-transgenic mice. After treating Rag1-deficient mice with IL-33, with or without anti-CD90.2 to preferentially deplete ILC2s, we isolated splenocytes, which were adoptively transferred into BAFF-transgenic mice. RESULTS BAFF-transgenic mice treated with IL-33 developed more severe kidney dysfunction and proteinuria, glomerular sclerosis, tubulointerstitial damage, and glomerular deposition of IgA and C3. Compared with wild-type mice, BAFF-transgenic mice exhibited increases of CD19+ B cells in spleen and kidney and ILC2s in kidney and intestine, which were further increased by administration of IL-33. Administering IL-33 to wild-type mice had no effect on kidney function or histology, nor did it alter the number of ILC2s in spleen, kidney, or intestine. To understand the role of ILC2s, splenocytes were transferred from IL-33-treated Rag1-deficient mice into BAFF-transgenic mice. Glomerulonephritis and IgA deposition were exacerbated by transfer of IL-33-stimulated Rag1-deficient splenocytes, but not by ILC2 (anti-CD90.2)-depleted splenocytes. Wild-type mice infused with IL-33-treated Rag1-deficient splenocytes showed no change in kidney function or ILC2 numbers or distribution. CONCLUSIONS IL-33-expanded ILC2s exacerbated IgA glomerulonephritis in a mouse model. These findings indicate that IL-33 and ILC2s warrant evaluation as possible mediators of human IgA nephropathy.

Abstract
Immunoglobulin A Deficiency (IgAD) is a polygenic primary immune deficiency, with a strong genetic association to the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified five non-HLA risk loci (IFIH1, PVT1, ATG13-AMBRA1, AHI1 and CLEC16A). In this study, we investigated the genetic interactions between different HLA susceptibility haplotypes and non-MHC genes in IgAD. To do this, we stratified IgAD subjects and healthy controls based on HLA haplotypes (N = 10,993), and then performed GWAS to identify novel genetic regions contributing to IgAD susceptibility. After replicating previously published HLA risk haplotypes, we compared individuals carrying at least one HLA risk allele (HLA-B*08:01-DRB1*03:01-DQB1*02:01 or HLA-DRB1*07:01-DQB1*02:02 or HLA-DRB1*01-DQB1*05:01) with individuals lacking an HLA risk allele. Subsequently, we stratified subjects based on the susceptibility alleles/haplotypes and performed gene-based association analysis using 572,856 SNPs and 24,125 genes. A significant genome-wide association in STXBP6 (rs4097492; p = 7.63 × 10-9) was observed in the cohort carrying at least one MHC risk allele. We also identified a significant gene-based association for B3GNT6 (P Gene = 2.1 × 10-6) in patients not carrying known HLA susceptibility alleles. Our findings indicate that the etiology of IgAD differs depending on the genetic background of HLA susceptibility haplotypes.

Int J Gen Med 2021; 14:2147-2159. [PMID: 34093035 PMCID: PMC8169084 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s291395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2020] [Accepted: 04/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an autoimmune systemic inflammatory disease, largely resulted from genetic factor. Our purpose was to explore the association for IL1R1 and IL1R2 genetic variants with RA susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. Patients and Methods A total of 508 RA patients and 494 controls were involved in this case–control study; single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyping was identified by the Agena MassARRAY platform. The relationship between polymorphisms and RA susceptibility was calculated using the Pearson’s Chi-square test with odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in multiple genetic models. The Pearson’s Chi-square test and Student’s t-test were used for sample basic characteristic analysis. And linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis and haplotype analysis were performed by logistic regression analysis. Results The result from this study showed that rs2072472 (IL1R2) was an increased risk factor of RA (adjusted OR = 1.41, p = 0.011). Stratified analysis indicated SNPs rs10490571, rs956730, rs3917318 of IL1R1, and SNPs rs4851527, rs719250, rs3218896, rs3218977, rs2072472 of IL1R2 had impacts on RA risk after stratification based on gender and average age (54 years). Finally, haplotype analysis revealed that Ars3218977Ars2072472 haplotype in IL1R2 was related to a decreased RA risk (adjusted OR = 0.79; 95% CI = 0.65–0.94; p = 0.010). Yet, rs3917225(IL1R1) and rs11674595(IL1R2) were not significant in RA association analysis. Conclusion We determined SNPs (rs3917318, rs956730, rs1049057) of IL1R1 and SNPs (rs3218977, rs719250, rs4851527, rs3218896, rs2072472) of IL1R2 were correlated with the RA susceptibility in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
IL-1β is a key mediator of the cytokine storm linked to high morbidity and mortality from COVID-19, and IL-1β blockade with anakinra and canakinumab during COVID-19 infection has entered clinical trials. Using mass cytometry of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, we identified effector memory CD4+ T cells and CD4-CD8low/-CD161+ T cells, specifically those positive for the chemokine receptor CCR6, as the circulating immune subtypes with the greatest response to IL-1β. This response manifested as increased phosphorylation and, thus, activation of the proinflammatory transcription factor NF-κB and was also seen in other subsets, including CD11c+ myeloid dendritic cells, classical monocytes, two subsets of natural killer cells (CD16-CD56brightCD161- and CD16-CD56dimCD161+), and lineage- (Lin-) cells expressing CD161 and CD25. IL-1β also induced a rapid but less robust increase in the phosphorylation of the kinase p38 as compared to that of NF-κB in most of these immune cell subsets. Prolonged IL-1β stimulation increased the phosphorylation of the transcription factor STAT3 and to a lesser extent that of STAT1 and STAT5 across various immune cell types. IL-1β-induced production of IL-6 likely led to the activation of STAT1 and STAT3 at later time points. Interindividual heterogeneity and inhibition of STAT activation by anakinra raise the possibility that assays measuring NF-κB phosphorylation in response to IL-1β in CCR6+ T cell subtypes could identify those patients at higher risk of cytokine storm and most likely to benefit from IL-1β-neutralizing therapies.

Abstract
Introduction Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerulonephritis. It involves both genetic and environmental factors, among which DNA methylation, the most studied epigenetic modification, was shown to play a role. Here, we assessed genome-wide DNA methylation and gene expression profiles in 2 pairs of IgAN-discordant monozygotic (MZ) twins, in order to characterize methylation changes and their potential influences on gene expression in IgAN. Methods Genome-wide DNA methylation and gene expression profiles were evaluated in peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from 2 IgAN-discordant MZ twins. Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected, and an integrated analysis was performed. Finally, functional enrichment analysis was done for DMR-associated genes and DEGs. Results Totally 521 DMRs were detected for 2 IgAN-discordant MZ twins. Among them, 9 DMRs were found to be mapped to genes that differentially expressed in 2 MZ twins, indicating the potential regulatory mechanisms of expression for these 9 genes (MNDA, DYSF, IL1R2, TLR6, TREML2, TREM1, IL32, S1PR5, and ADGRE3) in IgAN. Biological process analysis of them showed that they were mostly involved in the immune system process. Functional enrichment analysis of DEGs and DMR-associated genes both identified multiple pathways relevant to inflammatory and immune responses. And DMR-associated genes were significantly enriched in terms related to T-cell function. Conclusions Our findings indicate that changes in DNA methylation patterns were involved in the pathogenesis of IgAN. Nine target genes detected in our study may provide new ideas for the exploration of molecular mechanisms of IgAN.

Abstract
AIM The incidence of head and neck cancer (HNC) is increasing but its pathogenic factors are complex. Changes in both internal (genetic) and external (environmental) causes HNC to some extent. The purpose of our study was to investigate the influence of IL1R1 polymorphisms on HNC risk in Chinese Han population. METHODS Genotypes of 535 HNC patients and 538 healthy controls were analyzed by Agena MassARRAY. Odds ratio (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CIs) were calculated by logistic regression analysis to evaluate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and HNC susceptibility. RESULTS It was found that the rs956730 of IL1R1 reduced the risk of HNC in multiple models (allele: OR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.62-0.93, p = 0.008; codominant: OR = 0.43, 95% CI: 0.25-0.75, p = 0.003; recessive: OR = 0.45, 95% CI: 0.26-0.77, p = 0.004; additive: OR = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.63-0.94, p = 0.01). IL1R1 rs956730 had a protective effect on HNC at age ≤ 46. However, the rs3917225 increased a 1.31-fold HNC risk in the codominant model (OR = 1.31, 95% CI: 1.00-1.70, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Our study showed that the rs956730 of IL1R1 gene in Chinese Han population was associated with a reduced risk of HNC, while the rs3917225 of IL1R1 might increase the risk of HNC.

Abstract
Background Age-related hearing impairment (ARHI) is a major disability among the elder population. Chronic inflammation is an important factor in the development of ARHI. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) plays a key role in inflammation and may be associated with ARHI. The aim of this study is to analyze the associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IL-1 receptor genes with ARHI in an elderly population in Taiwan. Method Participants ≥65 years of age were recruited for audiometric tests and genetic analyses. The bilateral pure-tone average (PTA) of high-tone hearing levels was calculated for ARHI evaluation. The associations of SNPs of the IL-1 receptor type 1 gene (IL1R1) (rs3917225 and rs2234650) and type 2 gene (IL1R2) (rs4141134 and rs2071008) with ARHI were analyzed in 182 ARHI-susceptible (case) and 176 ARHI-resistant (control) participants. Results The G allele of IL1R1 rs3917225 showed a decreased risk of ARHI after adjustments for sex, age, and noise exposure. The GG genotype of IL1R1 rs3917225 in all hereditary models and the TT genotype of IL1R2 rs2071008 in the recessive model also showed decreased risks of ARHI after adjustments. Conclusion These findings suggest that IL1R1 and IL1R2 polymorphisms may contribute to the decreased risk of ARHI in the elderly population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esophageal cancer (EC) is the sixth leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and the overall incidence is increasing. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in IL1R2 and EC risk in the Chinese population. METHODS Genotyping of six SNPs of IL1R2 was performed with the Agena MassARRAY platform from 384 EC and 499 controls. The association between polymorphisms and EC risk was assessed by performing genetics models and haplotype analyses. RESULTS Overall analysis results showed that the allele C of rs11674595 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.42, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.14-1.77, p = 0.002) and allele G of rs2072472 (allele: OR = 1.35, 95% CI: 1.08-1.69, p = 0.008) were associated with an increased EC risk. The rs11674595 and rs2072472 were found to be correlated with EC risk under the codominant, dominant, and additive models. Stratification analysis found that rs11674595 and rs2072472 were associated with increased EC risk in male and in age > 55 years old subgroup. In addition, Crs11674595Grs4851527 haplotype was significantly associated with 1.44-fold increased risk of EC (95% CI: 1.12-1.84, p = 0.004). CONCLUSION Our results reveal the significant association between SNPs (rs11674595 and rs2072472) in the IL1R2 and EC risk in the Chinese Han population. The findings may provide meaningful reference for the prevention and treatment of EC.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to assess the association of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IL1R1 with the risk of lumbar disc herniation (LDH) in the Han population in northwest China. Material/Methods To estimate the association of IL1R1 polymorphisms with LDH risk, Agena MassARRAY was used to determine the genotypes of 498 LDH patients and 463 controls. The association between IL1R1 variants and LDH risk was examined by logistic regression analysis with adjustments for age and gender. Stratification analysis was observed between gender and age with polymorphisms of IL1R1. Haplotype construction and analysis in IL1R1 were also applied to detect the potential association. Results The mutant homozygous genotype in codominant model (AA versus GG, OR=2.37, 95% CI: 1.08–5.21, P=0.001) and in recessive model (AA versus GG/GA, OR=2.82, 95% CI: 1.30–6.12, P=0.005) of rs956730 were associated with an increased LDH risk in males, while rs956730 heterozygous genotype under codominant model (AG versus GG, OR=0.65, 95% CI: 0.46–0.92, P=0.001) was a protective genotype in males. In addition, the recessive model (CT/CC versus TT, OR=3.43, 95% CI: 1.11–10.57, P=0.020) of rs10490571 was associated with an increased LDH risk among people older than 50 years of age. Conclusions This study demonstrated that genetic variants in the IL1R1 genes were associated with LDH risk in the Han population of northwestern China.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thyroid carcinoma accounts for a large part of endocrine neoplasia and the relationship between inflammation and thyroid cancer has been validated previously. Two known receptors of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-1 receptor 1 (IL1R1) and IL-1 receptor 2 (IL1R2), are implicated in numerous inflammatory responses. The present study aimed to assess the genetic polymorphisms of IL1R1 and IL1R2 with respect to thyroid cancer in the Chinese Han population. METHODS Eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms of IL1R1 and IL1R2 were identified among 241 thyroid cancer patients and 463 controls using the Agena MassARRY method (http://www.internationalgenome.org). Genetic models and haplotype analysis were carried out to evaluate the significant links between the variants and the risk of thyroid cancer. RESULTS Logistic regression analyses revealed significant associations of rs3917225, rs2072472 and rs11674595 with susceptibility to thyroid cancer. Haplotype analysis presented two blocks of IL1R2, whereas no statistical significance existed. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggested that rs3917225, rs2072472 and rs11674595 are risk factors associated with the development of thyroid carcinoma in Chinese Han people.

Abstract
Background Recently, many studies have identified that genetic factor plays a crucial role in endometrial cancer development. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IL‐1R2 on endometrial cancer susceptibility. Methods We performed a case‐control study that included 293 patients with endometrial cancer and 579 healthy controls. Six SNPs in the IL‐1R2 gene were genotyped using the Agena MassARRAY platform. Genetic models and haplotype analyses were used to assess the association between SNPs and endometrial cancer risk by computing odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results Overall analysis results found that two SNPs (rs4851527 and rs3218896) and haplotypes TGTC and TACT were significantly associated with endometrial cancer risk. Stratified analysis by age showed that rs2072472 was associated with endometrial cancer risk in age >54 subgroup. Conclusions These findings suggested that IL‐1R2 polymorphisms may contribute to the development of endometrial cancer. Further studies are required to confirm the results.

[PMID: 30672138 PMCID: PMC6418374 DOI: 10.1002/mgg3.542] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2018] [Revised: 11/11/2018] [Accepted: 12/02/2018] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim High‐altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), as a multifactorial disease, is caused by stress failure and involves both environmental and genetic factors. Study shows that IL‐1 receptors can selectively decrease the oxygen arterial hypertension and influence the blood coagulation. So we evaluated whether genetic polymorphisms in IL1R1 and 1L1R2 genes are associated with the risk of HAPE in Chinese Han population. Methods Ten susceptible SNPs in the IL1R1 and IL1R2 genes were genotyped among 265 HAPE cases and 303 controls using the Agena MassARRAY platform. The associations of the SNP frequencies with HAPE were analyzed by chi‐square (χ2) test/Fisher's test. The genetic models were used to evaluate associations. Results In the allele model, we found that rs2072472 was significantly associated with a 0.73‐fold decreased risk of HAPE (OR = 0.73, 95% CI = 0.55–0.97, p = 0.033). In the genetic model analysis, the rs2072472 in IL1R2 gene was associated with a 0.32‐fold decreased risk of HAPE in the codominant model, 0.67‐fold decreased risk of HAPE in the dominant model, 0.36‐fold decreasing the risk of HAPE in the recessive model, and 0.66‐fold decreased risk of HAPE in the log‐additive model, respectively. We found three candidate SNPs (rs11674595, rs4851527, and rs719250) in the IL1R2 gene have shown strong linkage, and none of the haplotypes was significantly associated with risk of HAPE. Conclusion These findings suggested that IL1R2 polymorphisms may contribute to the protection of HAPE.

Abstract
Aim Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) refers to bony changes caused by osteocyte death under the effects of complicated factors, which is caused by genetic factors and certain risk factors. Our study aimed to explore whether IL1R1/IL1R2 polymorphisms influenced ONFH risk in the Chinese Han population. Methods We selected 286 patients and 441 controls, with 11 single‐nucleotide polymorphisms in IL1R1 and IL1R2 gene were successfully genotyped, and evaluated the associations using the chi‐squared test, Fisher's exact test, T test, and genetic model analyses. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using unconditional logistic regression. Results In the allele model, rs11674595 in IL1R2 was associated with increasing the risk of ONFH, the rs10490571 and rs3917225 in IL1R1 gene were associated with an increased risk of ONFH, respectively. In the genetic model, the rs11674595 in IL1R2 gene was associated with an increased risk of ONFH in the codominant model, dominant model, and log‐additive model, respectively. The rs10490571 and rs3917225 in IL1R1 gene conferred an increased risk of ONFH in the codominant model, dominant model, and log‐additive model, respectively. We found none of the haplotypes in the IL1R2 gene was significantly associated with theONFH risk. Conclusion Our findings have demonstrated that the rs11674595 (IL1R2), rs10490571, and rs3917225 (IL1R1) were significantly associated with increasing the ONFH risk in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin (IL)-1 has been reported to be involved in the development of tuberculosis (TB). IL1R1 and IL1R2 encode a cytokine receptor that belongs to the IL-1 receptor family. However, few studies have reported on the polymorphisms of IL1R1 and IL1R2 in TB patients. METHODS We investigated nine single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IL1R1 and IL1R2 in 300 TB patients and 300 controls, aiming to evaluate their association with TB risk. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated using unconditional logistic regression after adjusting for age and gender. RESULTS On comparing the allele frequencies of candidate SNPs, we found that the minor allele 'A' of rs4851527 in IL1R2 was associated with a decreased risk of TB, whereas the minor alleles of rs10490571, rs956730 and rs3917225 in IL1R1 were associated with an increased risk of TB (p < 0.05). In the genetic model analysis, we found that the allele 'A' of rs4851527 was correlated with a decreased risk of TB in a log-additive model, whereas the minor alleles of rs719250, rs3218977, rs10490571, rs956730 and rs3917225 were correlated with an increased risk of TB in dominant and log-additive models (p < 0.05). Additionally, we found three haplotypes that were associated with an increased risk of TB: TGCT and TGTT haplotypes constructed by rs11674595, rs4851527, rs719250 and rs3218896, as well as GA haplotype constructed by rs3218977 and rs2072472 (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our data shed new light on the association between genetic polymorphisms of IL1R1 and IL1R2 and TB susceptibility in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the most common primary glomerulonephritis. However, the etiology of this disease is complex and the pathogenesis of IgAN is still unknown. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in a lot of pathological and physiological processes. In this study, we showed that the expression of miR-320 was significantly upregulated in renal tissues and urinary of IgAN patients. Moreover, the intra-renal expression level of miR-320 had significant correlation with miR-320 expression in the urinary of IgAN patients. Overexpression of miR-320 increased B cell proliferation and promoted cyclin D1 expression. Furthermore, we identified that PTEN was direct target gene of miR-320 in the B cell. Ectopic expression of miR-320 suppressed PTEN expression. Overexpression of miR-320 decreased Cosmc expression in the B cell. In addition, we demonstrated that Cosmc expression was significantly downregulated in the renal tissues and urinary of IgAN patients. The intra-renal expression level of Cosmc had significant correlation with Cosmc expression of urinary in IgAN patients. We proved that the expression level of Cosmc was negatively correlated with the expression of miR-320 in the renal tissues of IgAN patients. Overexpression of miR-320 promoted the B cell proliferation through suppressing PTEN expression. Taken together, these data suggested that miR-320 acted an important role in the development of IgAN.

Abstract
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is characterized by high serum IgA levels and IgA deposition in the renal mesangium. Recent research has indicated that pathogenic IgA may originate from affected tonsils, where present enhancement of IgA production by IgA class switching and immuno-activation. Tripterygium Wilfordii (TW) was found to be especially effective in IgAN by its’ immunosuppression effect. Given this background, we investigated the mechanisms underlying the role of TW in the generation of IgA and IgA class switching in tonsillar GCs of IgAN patients. Immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR revealed that the expression of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) and IgA inducing cytokines were decreased in the tonsils of IgAN patients with TW treatment compared with those without treatment, followed by significantly decreased of IgA-bearing cells. The location of TSLP and IgA inducing cytokines in tonsillar tissue was confirmed by double immunofluorescence. Importantly, TW inhibit TSLP and IgA production in isolated FDC-associated clusters. Serum TSLP levels were decreased and correlated with IgA downregulation in the tonsils and serum of IgAN patients. These data indicated that TW may be involved in IgA production in the tonsils of IgAN patients, inhibiting IgA class switching in IgAN patients through the cooperative roles of AID, TGF-β1, BAFF, and APRIL, highlighting a promising strategy for therapeutic intervention in IgAN.
