Внеклеточные нуклеотиды являются посредником в вирусных инфекциях центральной нервной системы: ключи от нейроинфламмации и нейродегенерации.

Недавний рост инфекционных заболеваний, затрагивающих центральную нервную систему, вызвал обеспокоенность по поводу их роли в нейроинфламмации и нейродегенерации. Вирусные патогены или их продукты могут вторгаться в центральную нервную систему и вызывать повреждения, ведущие к менингиту, энцефалиту, менингоэнцефалиту, миелиту или постинфекционным демиелинизирующим заболеваниям. Хотя изначально нейроинфламмация имеет защитную функцию, хроническое воспаление может способствовать развитию нейродегенеративных заболеваний. Такие механизмы, как агрегация белков и клеточные расстройства, связаны с ко

What Are the Peripheral Blood Determinants for Increased Osteoclast Formation in the Various Inflammatory Diseases Associated With Bone Loss?

Local priming of osteoclast precursors (OCp) has long been considered the main and obvious pathway that takes place in the human body, where local bone lining cells and RANKL-expressing osteocytes may facilitate the differentiation of OCp. However, priming of OCp away from bone, such as in inflammatory tissues, as revealed in peripheral blood, may represent a second pathway, particularly relevant in individuals who suffer from systemic bone loss such as prevalent in inflammatory diseases. In this review, we used a systematic approach to review the literature on osteoclast formation in peripher

Regulatory role of PI3K/Akt/WNK1 signal pathway in mouse model of bone cancer pain.

In the advanced stage of cancer, the pain caused by bone metastasis is unbearable, but the mechanism of bone cancer pain (BCP) is very complicated and remains unclear. In this study, we used 4T1 mouse breast cancer cells to establish a bone cancer pain model to study the mechanism of BCP. Then the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) and the hematoxylin-eosin staining were used to reflect the erosion of cancer cells on tibia tissue. We also determined the role of proinflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-17, etc.) in BCP by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in mouse serum. When GSK690693, a

Ассоциированные клетки B в аутоиммунных болезнях: патогенез и клинические последствия.

Будучи разнородным подмножеством клеток В, связанные с возрастом клетки В (ABC) имеют различные транскрипционные профили, процессы экстрафолликулярной дифференциации и множественные функции в автоматическом иммунитете. Сигналы TLR7 и TLR9 наряду с стимуляцией IFN-__ и IL-21 имеют важное значение для дифференциации ABC, которая также регулируется хемокиновыми рецепторами, включая CXCR3 и CCR2, и интегралами, включая CD11b и CD11c. С учетом их функций, связанных с поглощением и представлением антигенов, секрецией цитокина, а также активацией ячеек Т, ABC демонстрируют потенциал в прогнозе, диагн

Bone Marrow Adipocytes, Adipocytokines, and Breast Cancer Cells: Novel Implications in Bone Metastasis of Breast Cancer.

Accumulating discoveries highlight the importance of interaction between marrow stromal cells and cancer cells for bone metastasis. Bone is the most common metastatic site of breast cancer and bone marrow adipocytes (BMAs) are the most abundant component of the bone marrow microenvironment. BMAs are unique in their origin and location, and recently they are found to serve as an endocrine organ that secretes adipokines, cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors. It is reasonable to speculate that BMAs contribute to the modification of bone metastatic microenvironment and affecting metastatic br

Pathogenic Inflammation and Its Therapeutic Targeting in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE, lupus) is a highly complex and heterogeneous autoimmune disease that most often afflicts women in their child-bearing years. It is characterized by circulating self-reactive antibodies that deposit in tissues, including skin, kidneys, and brain, and the ensuing inflammatory response can lead to irreparable tissue damage. Over many years, clinical trials in SLE have focused on agents that control B- and T-lymphocyte activation, and, with the single exception of an agent known as belimumab which targets the B-cell survival factor BAFF, they have been disappoint

Heterogeneous tissue-specific macrophages orchestrate metastatic organotropism of breast cancer: implications for promising therapeutics.

Compelling evidences have manifested that breast cancer cells prefer to metastasize to certain distant organs, including brain, lung, bone and liver. According to the canonical "seed and soil" theory, this prominent biological behavior, termed as metastatic organotropism, involves intricate interactions between breast cancer cells (the "seeds") and specific residents in the tumor microenvironment (the "soil"), initiating from pre-metastatic niche formation to metastatic outgrowth. Recently, multifaceted heterogeneity of tissue-specific macrophages (TSMs) and their roles played in organotropic

Treatment of Cancer Pain by Targeting Cytokines.

Inflammation is one of the most important causes of the majority of cancer symptoms, including pain, fatigue, cachexia, and anorexia. Cancer pain affects 17 million people worldwide and can be caused by different mediators which act in primary efferent neurons directly or indirectly. Cytokines can be aberrantly produced by cancer and immune system cells and are of particular relevance in pain. Currently, there are very few strategies to control the release of cytokines that seems to be related to cancer pain. Nevertheless, in some cases, targeted drugs are available and in use for other diseas

Autoinflammatory Keratinization Diseases-The Concept, Pathophysiology, and Clinical Implications.

Recent advances in medical genetics elucidated the background of diseases characterized by superficial dermal and epidermal inflammation with resultant aberrant keratosis. This led to introducing the term autoinflammatory keratinization diseases encompassing entities in which monogenic mutations cause spontaneous activation of the innate immunity and subsequent disruption of the keratinization process. Originally, autoinflammatory keratinization diseases were attributed to pathogenic variants of CARD14 (generalized pustular psoriasis with concomitant psoriasis vulgaris, palmoplantar pustulosis

Implications of Angiogenesis Involvement in Arthritis.

Angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels, is essential in the pathogenesis of joint inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA), facilitating the invasion of inflammatory cells and increase in local pain receptors that contribute to structural damage and pain. The angiogenic process is perpetuated by various mediators such as growth factors, primarily vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), as well as proinflammatory cytokines, various chemokines, matrix components, cell adhesion molecules, proteases, and others.

The Molecular Aspect of Antitumor Effects of Protease Inhibitor Nafamostat Mesylate and Its Role in Potential Clinical Applications.

Nafamostat mesylate (NM), a synthetic serine protease inhibitor first placed on the market by Japan Tobacco in 1986, has been approved to treat inflammatory-related diseases, such as pancreatitis. Recently, an increasing number of studies have highlighted the promising effects of NM in inhibiting cancer progression. Alone or in combination treatments, studies have shown that NM attenuates various malignant tumors, including pancreatic, colorectal, gastric, gallbladder, and hepatocellular cancers. In this review, based on several activating pathways, including the canonical Nuclear factor-κB (N

Progress in Biological Therapies for Adult-Onset Still's Disease.

Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare multifactorial autoinflammatory disorder of unknown etiology, characterized by an excessive release of cytokines triggered by dysregulated inflammation and articular and systemic manifestations. The clinical spectrum of AOSD ranges from self-limiting forms with mild symptoms to life-threatening cases and presents clinical and biological similarities with the juvenile form (sJIA). Nowadays, the advances in biologic agents no longer limit the treatment to NSAIDs, glucocorticoids, or conventional synthetic DMARDs. The blockade of IL-1 and IL-6 is effec

Latest updates on pathogenesis mechanisms and management strategies for cytokine release syndrome, neurotoxicity, and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis related to CAR-T cell therapies.

Nowadays, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) -T cell therapy has shown significant efficacy in treating hematological tumors, with an obvious increase in patient survival rates. However, with the widespread application of CAR-T, the incidence of CAR-T related adverse events has gradually increased, including cytokine release syndrome (CRS), immune effector cell associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). These complications may be life-threatening, so early diagnosis and intervention treatment are crucial for the prognosis of patients. In this review,

The Role of Inflammatory Cytokines, the RANKL/OPG Axis, and the Immunoskeletal Interface in Physiological Bone Turnover and Osteoporosis.

Although it has long been recognized that inflammation, a consequence of immune-driven processes, significantly impacts bone turnover, the degree of centralization of skeletal and immune functions has begun to be dissected only recently. It is now recognized that formation of osteoclasts, the bone resorbing cells of the body, is centered on the key osteoclastogenic cytokine, receptor activator of NF- κ B ligand (RANKL). Although numerous inflammatory cytokines are now recognized to promote osteoclast formation and skeletal degradation, with just a few exceptions, RANKL is now considered to be

Mucosal-Associated Invariant T Cells in Health and Disease.

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are a population of evolutionarily conserved, unconventional innate-like T lymphocytes that are restricted by major histocompatibility complex Class I-related (MR1) molecules. They can be activated either in a T-cell receptor-MR1- or cytokine-dependent manner. Activated MAIT cells play crucial roles in maintaining homeostasis and the fine regulation of the immune system. This review presents a systematic exploration of the development, biological characteristics, and multiple effects of MAIT cells in health and various diseases. In healthy individual

Journey of TRAIL from Bench to Bedside and its Potential Role in Immuno-Oncology.

Induction of apoptosis in cancer cells has increasingly been the focus of many therapeutic approaches in oncology field. Since its identification as a TNF family member, TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) paved a new path in apoptosis inducing cancer therapies. Its selective ability to activate extrinsic and intrinsic cell death pathways in cancer cells only, independently from p53 mutations responsible for conventional therapeutics resistance, spotted TRAIL as a potent cancer apoptotic agent. Many recombinant preparations of TRAIL and death receptor targeting monoclonal antibodies

Interleukin-32: a Pandora's box in human immunodeficiency virus infection.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), has been estimated to infect around 40.8 million people globally. This virus can persist and thrive in the presence of antiretroviral therapy, which is a major obstacle to HIV eradication. Therefore, understanding host immunological factors that underlie HIV persistence and pathogenesis can lead to the development of immunotherapeutic interventions. Interleukin-32 (IL-32) is an orphan cytokine with multiple isoforms and a complex signal transduction pathway that transmits through non-specific receptors.
