The function of regulatory immune cells in peripheral tissues is crucial to the onset and severity of various diseases. Interleukin-10 (IL-10)-producing regulatory B (IL-10 B) cells are known to suppress various inflammatory diseases. However, evidence for the mechanism by which IL-10 B cells are generated and maintained is still very limited. Here, we found that IL-10 B cells suppress the activation of IL-13-producing type 2 innate lymphoid cells (IL-13 ILC2s) in an IL-10-dependent manner in mice with oxazolone-induced severe contact hypersensitivity (CHS). Mast cell (MC) IL-5 was important for maintaining the population of IL-10 B cells in peripheral lymphoid tissues. Overall, these results uncover a previously unknown mechanism of MCs as a type of immunoregulatory cell and elucidate the cross-talk among MCs, IL-10 B cells, and IL-13 ILC2s in CHS.

To illustrate the potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-Exos) in mitigating septic lung injury by reducing the excessive formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), a mouse model of septic lung injury was induced through cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The mice received intraperitoneal injections of MSC-Exos. Post injection, pathological alterations of the lung tissue were evaluated through HE staining, and the levels of inflammatory markers in each mouse group at various time points were assessed using ELISA kits.

A new pipeline SPICE identifies novel JUN-IKZF1 composite elements.

Elife

January 2025

Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, NIH, Bethesda, United States.

Transcription factor partners can cooperatively bind to DNA composite elements to augment gene transcription. Here, we report a novel protein-DNA binding screening pipeline, termed Spacing Preference Identification of Composite Elements (SPICE), that can systematically predict protein binding partners and DNA motif spacing preferences. Using SPICE, we successfully identified known composite elements, such as AP1-IRF composite elements (AICEs) and STAT5 tetramers, and also uncovered several novel binding partners, including JUN-IKZF1 composite elements.

The main goal of the current study is to estimate the in vivo anti-inflammatory/antioxidant ability of four selected pharmaceutical compounds: bisoprolol (Biso), piracetam (Pirc), clopidogrel (Clop), and cinnarizine (Cinna). Indomethacin (Indo) was used as a reference drug to perform a realistic comparison between the four compounds and the Indo in vivo through tracking PI3K/AKT signaling and computational chemistry via density functional theory (DFT) modeling to analyze the electrostatic potential across the molecule and provide insight into the regions for receptor binding of the studied compounds. To achieve the safe dose of these compounds, cytotoxicity was performed against isolated adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) using MTT assay.

Therapeutics promoting the endogenous production of IL-10 have the potential to restore homeostasis in inflammatory disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Here we describe the identification of a series of IL-10 upregulators based on a pyrimidyl-piperidine scaffold through a high throughput phenotypic CD4 T-cell multiplex assay. optimization of the initial hit yielded a lead with good potency and an clearance profile, compound 3-7, which additionally demonstrated efficacy in a murine endotoxin challenge PK-PD mechanistic model.

Modulating tumor-associated macrophages through CSF1R inhibition: a potential therapeutic strategy for HNSCC.

J Transl Med

January 2025

Department of General Surgery of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck, The Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University, No.26, Erheng Road, Yuancun, Tianhe District, Guangzhou, 510655, China.

Purpose: Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are pivotal immune cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME), exhibiting dual roles across various cancer types. Depending on the context, TAMs can either suppress tumor progression and weaken drug sensitivity or facilitate tumor growth and drive therapeutic resistance. This study explores whether targeting TAMs can suppress the progression of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and improve the efficacy of chemotherapy.
