The cytokine production potential of immunocompetent cells from the blood of stomach adenocarcinoma patients was analyzed after the pretreatment of cells with the HLDF differentiation factor with subsequent exposure to polyclonal activators (HLDF+PA). IL-1β, IL-1Ra, TNFα, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17, IL-18, IL-18BPa, IFNγ, G-CSF, and GM-CSF were quantified in the supernatants after precipitation of the cells. Specific effects of HLDF+PA were manifested as an increase in the production of IL-8, IL-17, and GM-CSF due to suppression of Th1-dependent immune reactions in a Th17-mediated mechanism that is a part of a broader functional antagonism of Th1 and Th17 lymphocyte subpopulations.

The mechanisms of the neuroprotective action of the hexapeptides HLDF-6 encoded by the amino acid sequence 41-46 of Human Leukemia Differentiation Factor and its homoserine derivative HLDF-6H were studied in an experimental 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced model of Parkinson's disease (PD). C57Bl/6 mice received two intraperitoneal injections of 18 mg/kg MPTP-HCl, with an interval of 2 hours. MPTP-induced motor dysfunction was assessed using horizontal grid test.

We studied the effect of the HLDF differentiation factor on production of cytokines by biopsy samples of nonmalignant breast diseases (ND) and invasive breast carcinoma of no special type (IBC-NST), in the absence and presence of lymphogenic metastasis: IBC-NST patients werw subdivided into groups on the prognostic protocol of the 8th edition of the AJCC committee. Group IA consisted of patients with T1-T2 tumor sizes, and predominantly with positive expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER+/PR+/HER2-); it also included one patient with the HER2+ (ER-/PR-/HER2+) molecular subtype. The IB group was mainly composed of patients with T2 tumor size, with the presence of lymphogenic metastasis (in 8 out of 10) patients and with positive expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER+/PR+/HER2-) and it also included three patients with the HER2+ (ER-/PR-/HER2+) molecular subtype.

The article focuses on the influence of human leukemia differentiation factor (HLDF), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and polyclonal activators (PA) on cytokine production by peripheral blood cells in breast cancer and benign breast diseases. It was found that the influence of internal factors on the production of cytokines by the peripheral blood cells is associated with lymphatic metastasis (CEA: IL-10; HLDF: IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and G-CSF). One special circumstance was that there were no differences between the production of cytokines by peripheral blood cells in the patients with breast cancer compared to the patients with benign breast diseases with a high risk of malignant transformation.

In this work, we have compared malignant and non-malignant diseases of the mammary gland using 8 proteins: HRG, MUC1, PAI-1, HSP90αA1, CDH1, ERα, PGR and IL-12. Their concentrations in the supernatants of blood cells and breast biopsies were compared in terms of spontaneous production, induced by a polyclonal activator and after exposure to biopsy samples of the HLDF differentiation factor, as well as the indices of the effect of the polyclonal activator and HLDF on the protein production. In addition, the correlation relationships of the above indicators with the expression of markers of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition: collagen type II (CII), β-1 integrin (CD29) and cadherin-E (CDH1) were studied.
