Abstract
PURPOSE This study investigated the expression of interleukin 32 (IL-32) in hepatoblastoma, the most common primary pediatric liver tumor, and its possible roles in tumorigenesis. METHODS IL-32 expression was investigated in two hepatoblastoma cell lines (Hep G2 and HuH 6) in the steady state and after co-culture with macrophages by RNA-seq analysis and RT-qPCR, and after stimulation with chemotherapy. Cultured macrophages were stimulated by IL-32 isoforms followed by RT-qPCR and western blot analysis. IL-32 immunohistochemical staining (IHC) was performed using specimens from 21 hepatoblastoma patients. Clustering analysis was also performed using scRNA-seq data downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus. RESULTS The IL-32 gene is expressed by hepatoblastoma cell lines; expression is upregulated by paracrine cell-cell communication with macrophages, also by carboplatin and etoposide. IL-32 causes protumor activation of macrophages with upregulation of PD-L1, IDO-1, IL-6, and IL-10. In the patient pool, IHC was positive only in 48% of cases. However, in the downloaded dataset, IL-32 gene expression was negative. CONCLUSION IL-32 was detected in hepatoblastoma cell lines, but not in all hepatoblastoma patients. We hypothesized that stimulation such as chemotherapy might induce expression of IL-32, which might be a critical mediator of chemoresistance in hepatoblastoma through inducing protumor activation in macrophages.

Abstract
Interleukin-32 (IL-32), first reported in 2005, and its isoforms have been the subject of numerous studies investigating their functions in virus infection, cancer, and inflammation. IL-32θ, one of the IL-32 isoforms, has been shown to modulate cancer development and inflammatory responses. A recent study identified an IL-32θ mutant with a cytosine to thymine replacement at position 281 in breast cancer tissues. It means that alanine was also replaced to valine at position 94 in amino acid sequence (A94V). In this study, we investigated the cell surface receptors of IL-32θA94V and evaluated their effect on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Recombinant human IL-32θA94V was expressed, isolated, and purified using Ni-NTA and IL-32 mAb (KU32-52)-coupled agarose columns. We observed that IL-32θA94V could bind to the integrins αVβ3 and αVβ6, suggesting that integrins act as cell surface receptors for IL-32θA94V. IL-32θA94V significantly attenuated monocyte-endothelial adhesion by inhibiting the expression of Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-stimulated HUVECs. IL-32θA94V also reduced the TNF-α-induced phosphorylation of protein kinase B (AKT) and c-jun N-terminal kinases (JNK) by inhibiting phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Additionally, IL-32θA94V regulated the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and activator protein 1 (AP-1), which are involved in ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression. Monocyte-endothelial adhesion mediated by ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 is an important early step in atherosclerosis, which is a major cause of cardiovascular disease. Our findings suggest that IL-32θA94V binds to the cell surface receptors, integrins αVβ3 and αVβ6, and attenuates monocyte-endothelial adhesion by suppressing the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in TNF-α-stimulated HUVECs. These results demonstrate that IL-32θA94V can act as an anti-inflammatory cytokine in a chronic inflammatory disease such as atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Fatty liver disease is most frequently related to metabolic dysfunction (MAFLD) and associated comorbidities, heightening the risk of cardiovascular disease, and is associated with higher hepatic production of IL32, a cytokine linked with lipotoxicity and endothelial activation. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between circulating IL32 concentration and blood pressure control in individuals with metabolic dysfunction at high risk of MAFLD. IL32 plasma levels were measured by ELISA in 948 individuals with metabolic dysfunction enrolled in the Liver-Bible-2021 cohort. Higher circulating IL32 levels were independently associated with systolic blood pressure (estimate +0.008 log10 per 1 mmHg increase, 95% c.i. 0.002-0.015; p = 0.016), and inversely correlated with antihypertensive medications (estimate -0.189, 95% c.i. -0.291--0.088, p = 0.0002). Through multivariable analysis, IL32 levels predicted both systolic blood pressure (estimate 0.746, 95% c.i 0.173-1.318; p = 0.010) and impaired blood pressure control (OR 1.22, 95% c.i. 1.09-1.38; p = 0.0009) independently of demographic and metabolic confounders and of treatment. This study reveals that circulating IL32 levels are associated with impaired blood pressure control in individuals at risk of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Interleukin-32 (IL-32) is an important cytokine involved in the innate and adaptive immune responses. The role of IL-32 has been studied in the context of various diseases. A growing body of research has investigated the role of IL-32 in rheumatic diseases including inflammatory arthritides (rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and psoriatic arthritis) and connective tissue diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, granulomatosis and polyangiitis, and giant cell arteritis). IL-32 has been shown to play different roles according to the type of rheumatic diseases. Hence, the putative role of IL-32 as a biomarker is also different in each rheumatic disease: IL-32 could serve as a biomarker for disease activity in some diseases, whereas in other diseases it could be a biomarker for certain disease manifestations. In this narrative review, we summarize the associations between IL-32 and various rheumatic diseases and discuss the putative role of IL-32 as a biomarker in each disease.

Abstract
In this study, we sought to elucidate the roles of the interleukin (IL)-32β and IL-32γ in mesothelioma cell growth, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) expression. IL-32 elicited a growth-promoting effect against one of the six mesotheliomas lines and exerted diverse regulatory functions in VEGF-A and CXCL8 secretion from mesotheliomas stimulated with or without IL-17A. Retroviral-mediated transduction of mesothelioma lines with IL-32γ resulted in enhanced IL-32β expression, which facilitated or suppressed the in vitro growth, and VEGF-A and CXCL8 expression. Overexpressed IL-32β-augmented growth and VEGF-A and CXCL8 production were mainly mediated through the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway. On the other hand, overexpressed IL-32β-deceased growth was mediated through mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. NCI-H2373IL-32γ tumors grew faster than NCI-H2373Neo tumors in a xenograft model, which was associated with increased vascularity. These findings indicate that IL-32 are involved in the regulation of growth and angiogenic factor production in mesotheliomas.
