Abstract
Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) is one of the most abundant immunoglobulin subtypes among mucosa, which plays an indispensable role in the first-line protection against invading pathogens and antigens. Therefore, the role of respiratory SIgA in respiratory mucosal immune diseases has attracted more and more attention. Although the role of SIgA in intestinal mucosal immunity has been widely studied, the cell types responsible for SIgA and the interactions between cells are still unclear. Here, we conducted a wide search of relevant studies and sorted out the relationship between SIgA and some pulmonary diseases (COPD, asthma, tuberculosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, COVID-19, lung cancer), which found SIgA is involved in the pathogenesis and progression of various lung diseases, intending to provide new ideas for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of related lung diseases.

León ED, Francino MP. Roles of Secretory Immunoglobulin A in Host-Microbiota Interactions in the Gut Ecosystem. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:880484. [PMID: 35722300 PMCID: PMC9203039 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.880484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
In the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), the immune system interacts with a variety of microorganisms, including pathogens as well as beneficial symbionts that perform important physiological functions for the host and are crucial to sustain intestinal homeostasis. In normal conditions, secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) is the principal antibody produced by B cells in the GIT mucosa. Polyreactivity provides certain SIgA molecules with the ability of binding different antigens in the bacterial surface, such as O-antigens and teichoic acids, while cross-species reactivity allows them to recognize and interact with different types of bacteria. These functions may be crucial in allowing SIgA to modulate the complex gut microbiota in an efficient manner. Several studies suggest that SIgA can help with the retention and proliferation of helpful members of the gut microbiota. Gut microbiota alterations in people with IgA deficiency include the lack of some species that are known to be normally coated by SIgA. Here, we discuss the different ways in which SIgA behaves in relation to pathogens and beneficial bacteria of the gut microbiota and how the immune system might protect and facilitate the establishment and maintenance of certain gut symbionts.

Is There a Role for Gut Microbiome Dysbiosis in IgA Nephropathy? Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10040683. [PMID: 35456735 PMCID: PMC9031807 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10040683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2022] [Revised: 03/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerulonephritis and one of the leading causes of renal failure worldwide. The pathophysiology of IgAN involves nephrotoxic IgA1-immune complexes. These complexes are formed by galactose-deficient (Gd) IgA1 with autoantibodies against the hinge region of Gd-IgA1 as well as soluble CD89, an immune complex amplifier with an affinity for mesangial cells. These multiple molecular interactions result in the induction of the mesangial IgA receptor, CD71, injuring the kidney and causing disease. This review features recent immunological and microbiome studies that bring new microbiota-dependent mechanisms developing the disease based on data from IgAN patients and a humanized mouse model of IgAN. Dysbiosis of the microbiota in IgAN patients is also discussed in detail. Highlights of this review underscore that nephrotoxic IgA1 in the humanized mice originates from mucosal surfaces. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) experiments in mice using stools from patients reveal a possible microbiota dysbiosis in IgAN with the capacity to induce progression of the disease whereas FMT from healthy hosts has beneficial effects in mice. The continual growth of knowledge in IgAN patients and models can lead to the development of new therapeutic strategies targeting the microbiota to treat this disease.

Abstract
High concentration oxygen is widely used in the treatment of neonates, which has a significant effect on improving blood oxygen concentration in neonates with respiratory distress. The adverse effects of hyperoxia therapy on the lung, retina, and neurodevelopment of newborns have been extensively studied, but less attention has been paid to intestinal damage caused by hyperoxia therapy. In this review, we focus on the physical, immune, and microorganism barriers of the intestinal tract and discuss neonatal intestinal tract damage caused by hyperoxia therapy and analyze the molecular mechanism of intestinal damage caused by hyperoxia in combination with necrotizing enterocolitis.

Abstract
Intestinal homeostasis encompasses a complex and balanced interplay among a wide array of components that collaborate to maintain gut barrier integrity. The appropriate function of the gut barrier requires the mucus layer, a sticky cushion of mucopolysaccharides that overlays the epithelial cell surface. Mucus plays a critical anti-inflammatory role by preventing direct contact between luminal microbiota and the surface of the epithelial cell monolayer. Moreover, mucus is enriched with pivotal effectors of intestinal immunity, such as immunoglobulin A (IgA). A fragile and delicate equilibrium that supports proper barrier function can be disturbed by stress. The impact of stress upon intestinal homeostasis results from neuroendocrine mediators of the brain-gut axis (BGA), which comprises a nervous branch that includes the enteric nervous system (ENS) and the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, as well as an endocrine branch of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. This review is the first to discuss the experimental animal models that address the impact of stress on components of intestinal homeostasis, with special emphasis on intestinal mucus and IgA. Basic knowledge from animal models provides the foundations of pharmacologic and immunological interventions to control disturbances associated with conditions that are exacerbated by emotional stress, such as irritable bowel syndrome.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Immunesurveillance is an important tool to monitor the protection of the population against vaccine-preventable diseases, which is currently mostly based on the detection of specific serum antibodies. However, the landscape of immune surveillance is changing, driven by emerging and evolving pathogens, changes in the age distribution of the population and scientific understanding of protective immunity, necessitating a comprehensive review. AREAS COVERED To anticipate these changes, reliable and high-throughput detection of antibody levels is desired to enable screening in larger population settings. Antibody levels alone do not always equate with protection and may require additional functional testing of the antibodies or immune cell-based assays. In addition, the location (systemic or locally mucosal) of the infection and whether the antibodies are induced through infection or vaccination have implications for both immune protection and assessing immune status. EXPERT COMMENTARY In order to perform multicenter studies on many samples for multiple antigens, more validated reference materials and wider adoption of high-throughput techniques are needed. The field of serosurveillance will also benefit from better correlates of protection and understanding of (local) mechanisms of protection. Here we give an overview of the current state-of-the-art of serosurveillance and how the field could move forward.

Abstract
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is the most abundant antibody isotype in the mucosal immune system. Structurally, IgA in the mucosal surface is a polymeric structure, while serum IgA is monomeric. Secretory IgA (sIgA) is one of the polymeric IgAs composed of dimeric IgA, J chain, and secretory component (SC). Most of sIgAs were generated by gut and have effects in situ. Besides the function of “immune exclusion,” a nonspecific immune role, recent studies found it also played an important role in the specific immunity and immunoregulation. Thanks to the critical role of sIgA during the mucosal immune system homeostasis between commensal microorganisms and pathogens; it has been an important field exploring the relationship between sIgA and commensal microorganisms.

Abstract
Intestinal epithelial cells are multi-tasked cells that participate in digestion and absorption as well as in protection of the digestive tract. While information on the physiology and immune functions of intestinal epithelial cells in mammals is abundant, little is known of their immune function in birds and other species. Our main objectives were to study the development of anti-bacterial innate immune functions in the rapidly developing gut of the pre- and post-hatch chick and to determine the functional diversity of epithelial cells. After establishing primary intestinal epithelial cell cultures, we demonstrated their capacity to uptake and process bacteria. The response to bacterial products, LPS and LTA, induced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes (IL-6, IL-18) as well as the expression of the acute phase proteins avidin, lysozyme and the secretory component derived from the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor. These proteins were then localized in gut sections, and the goblet cell was shown to store avidin, lysozyme as well as secretory component. Lysozyme staining was also located in a novel rod-shaped intestinal cell, situated at different loci along the villus, thus deviating from the classical Paneth cell in the mammal, that is restricted to crypts. Thus, in the chicken, the intestinal epithelium, and particularly goblet cells, are committed to innate immune protection. The unique role of the goblet cell in chicken intestinal immunity, as well as the unique distribution of lysozyme-positive cells highlight alternative solutions of gut protection in the bird.
