Article Abstract
Monocytes constitute a heterogenous group of antigen-presenting cells that can be subdivided based on CD14, CD16 and SLAN expression. This division reflects the functional diversity of cells that may play different roles in a variety of pathologies including gliomas. In the current study, the three monocyte subpopulations: classical (CD14 CD16 SLAN), intermediate (CD14 CD16 SLAN) and non-classical (CD14 CD16 SLAN) in glioma patients' peripheral blood were analysed with flow cytometry. The immune checkpoint molecule (PD-1, PD-L1, SIRPalpha, TIM-3) expression along with pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines (TNF, IL-12, TGF-beta, IL-10) were assessed. The significant overproduction of anti-inflammatory cytokines by intermediate monocytes was observed. Additionally, SLAN-positive cells overexpressed IL-12 and TNF when compared to the other two groups of monocytes. In conclusion, these results show the presence of different profiles of glioma patient monocytes depending on CD14, CD16 and SLAN expression. The bifold function of monocyte subpopulations might be an additional obstacle to the effectiveness of possible immunotherapies.

The application of biological therapy and glucocorticoids in Auto-immune diseases (AID) patients will cause immunocompromised host (ICH) prone to infection. And monocytes play a key role in both innate and adaptive immune responses. We aimed to investigate the changes of circulating monocyte subsets in AID or AID-ICH patients with pulmonary infection.

Background & Aims: Infectious complications determine the prognosis of cirrhosis patients. Their infection susceptibility relates to the development of immuneparesis, a complex interplay of different immunosuppressive cells and soluble factors. Mechanisms underlying the dynamics of immuneparesis of innate immunity remain inconclusive.

Objective: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a complex and multifaceted disease that is increasingly prevalent globally. The involvement of immune cells in the tumour microenvironment has been linked to the progression of HCC, but the exact cause-and-effect relationship is not yet clear. In this study, we utilise Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate the potential causal links between immune factors and the development of HCC.

Parasitic helminths secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs) into their host tissues to modulate immune responses, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We demonstrate that Ascaris EVs are efficiently internalised by monocytes in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and increase the percentage of classical monocytes. Furthermore, EV treatment of monocytes induced a novel anti-inflammatory phenotype characterised by CD14, CD16, CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) cells.

Sepsis is a leading cause of death worldwide, with most patient mortality stemming from lingering immunosuppression in sepsis survivors. This is due in part to immune dysfunction resulting from monocyte exhaustion, a phenotype of reduced antigen presentation, altered CD14/CD16 inflammatory subtypes, and disrupted cytokine production. Whereas previous research demonstrated improved sepsis survival in Ticam2 mice, the contribution of TICAM2 to long-term exhaustion memory remained unknown.
