We report that TLR7, IL-6, and the adaptive immune system are essential for autoimmunity and glomerulonephritis but not for liver pathology in mice expressing the ubiquitin-binding-defective ABIN1[D485N] mutant. The blood and organs of ABIN1[D485N] mice have exceptionally high numbers of patrolling monocytes (pMo), which develop independently of IL-6 and the adaptive immune system. They are detectable in the blood months before autoimmunity and organ pathology are seen and may have diagnostic potential. The splenic pMo, inflammatory monocytes (iMo), and neutrophils of ABIN1[D485N] mice expressed high levels of mRNAs encoding proteins released during NETosis, which together with the high numbers of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MoDCs) may drive the liver pathology in ABIN1[D485N] mice, and contribute to the pathology of other organs. The splenic iMo of ABIN1[D485N] mice displayed high expression of mRNAs encoding proteins controlling cell division and were actively dividing; this may underlie the increased pMo and MoDC numbers, which are derived from iMo. An orally active IRAK4 inhibitor suppressed all facets of the disease phenotype and prevented the increase in pMo numbers.

TNFAIP3-interacting protein 1 (TNIP1; also known as ABIN-1) is a ubiquitin-binding protein that suppresses death-receptor- or Toll-like receptor-mediated apoptosis and necroptosis; however, it remains unclear whether ABIN-1 is capable of regulating pyroptosis. In the present study, we found that, in mouse embryonic fibroblasts and macrophages, ABIN-1 deficiency sensitized cells to poly(I:C) + TAK1 inhibitor 5Z-7-oxozeaenol-induced pyroptosis besides apoptosis and necroptosis. The sensitizing effect of ABIN-1 deficiency on pyroptosis depended on caspase-8 and its adaptor molecule FAS-associated death domain protein.

Rare mutations in CARD14 promote psoriasis by inducing CARD14-BCL10-MALT1 complexes that activate NF-κB and MAP kinases. Here, the downstream signalling mechanism of the highly penetrant CARD14E138A alteration is described. In addition to BCL10 and MALT1, CARD14E138A associated with several proteins important in innate immune signalling.

T cells are pivotal in the adaptive immune defense, necessitating a delicate balance between robust response against infections and self-tolerance. Their activation involves intricate cross-talk among signaling pathways triggered by the T-cell antigen receptors (TCR) and co-stimulatory or inhibitory receptors. The molecular regulation of these complex signaling networks is still incompletely understood.

A20-binding inhibitor of NF-κB activation (ABIN1) is a polyubiquitin-binding protein that regulates cell death and immune responses. Although Abin1 is located on chromosome 5q in the region commonly deleted in patients with 5q minus syndrome, the most distinct of the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs), the precise role of ABIN1 in MDSs remains unknown. In this study, mice with a mutation disrupting the polyubiquitin-binding site (Abin1 ) is generated.

Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate whether the IRAK1/JAK2/Flt3 inhibitor pacritinib prevents disease development in the lupus-prone ABIN1[D485N] knock-in mouse.
Methods: ABIN1[D485N] knock-in mice aged 8 weeks were fed for 10 weeks on a diet containing pacritinib. Body weight was monitored, and serum collected at the end to measure pacritinib, autoantibody and immunoglobulin levels.
