Aim: To investigate the expression of LAIR-1 in patients with tumors and the function of LAIR-1 in anticancer immunity.

Methods: A sandwich ELISA was employed to detect the serum sLAIR-1 from tumor patients and healthy individuals. The expression of LAIR-1 in CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, NK cells and B cells isolated from the peripheral blood of cancer patients was examined by fluorescence staining and flow cytometry.

Results: The level of serum sLAIR-1 in tumor patients was higher than that in healthy individuals [4.6+/-3.2 microg/L vs 3.9+/-3.0 microg/L, P<0.05]. NK cells, CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells expressed the up-regulated LAIR-1. The ratio of CD4/CD8 in lung cancer patients decreased significantly while the percentage of B cells in cancer patients increased greatly compared with healthy individuals.

Conclusion: The expression of LAIR-1 is up-regulated in tumor patients, which may contribute to cancer immune escape.

Article Synopsis
  • High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is a complex and aggressive cancer type marked by significant molecular diversity, challenging current treatment efforts.
  • This study analyzed four mRNA subtypes—immunoreactive, differentiated, proliferative, and mesenchymal—focusing on their gene expression profiles, immune microenvironment, and connections to clinical traits like survival and age.
  • Key findings showed that the immunoreactive subtype had high immune cell infiltration linked to better immune responses, while the proliferative subtype was associated with growth and cancer progression, highlighting the need for subtype-specific treatment strategies.

Background: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by a wide range of tumor-induced immune alterations. Regulatory T cells (Treg) play a central role in these immune responses. CD200 and Leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1 (LAIR-1, CD305) are inhibitory markers said to be involved in Treg immune response.

LAIR-1 and PECAM-1 function via the same signaling pathway to inhibit GPVI-mediated platelet activation.

Background: Inhibition of platelet responsiveness is important for controlling thrombosis. It is well established that platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) serves as a physiological negative regulator of platelet-collagen interactions. We recently demonstrated that leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1 (LAIR-1) is a negative regulator of platelet production and reactivity.

Impaired LAIR-1-mediated immune control due to collagen degradation in fibrosis.

Tissue repair is disturbed in fibrotic diseases like systemic sclerosis (SSc), where the deposition of large amounts of extracellular matrix components such as collagen interferes with organ function. LAIR-1 is an inhibitory collagen receptor highly expressed on tissue immune cells. We questioned whether in SSc, impaired LAIR-1-collagen interaction is contributing to the ongoing inflammation and fibrosis.

Objective To investigate the role of human leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1 (LAIR-1) in the regulation of Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT) and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT /mTOR) signaling pathways in human acute myeloid leukemia HEL cells carrying the JAK2 V617F mutation, along with its effects on cell proliferation and apoptosis. MethodsThe JAK2 V617F mutation was identified using reverse transcription PCR and gene sequencing. The protein phosphatase (PTP) recruited by LAIR-1 was determined through co-immunoprecipitation and Western blot analysis.
