Abstract
BACKGROUND Sialadenitis is a nonneoplastic disease that causes salivary dysfunction. Autophagy may be involved in helping protect salivary function when the salivary gland is impaired; this process is primarily activated by sensors of innate immunity, such as Toll-like receptors and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptors. The role of these pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in the regulation of salivary gland tissue defense and homeostasis has been underappreciated. This study hypothesized that NOD2 and TLR4 have a synergistic effect on the activation of autophagy in human submandibular gland (HSG) inflammation. METHODS Submandibular gland inflammation was modeled by treating HSG cell lines in vitro with muramyl dipeptide (MDP) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 24 hours. The mRNA and protein expression of NOD2, TLR4 and autophagy-related proteins (ATG5, LC3, Beclin1) were evaluated by real-time PCR and Western blot. Immunohistochemistry and double immunofluorescence were used to analyze the presence, distribution and colocalization of the aforementioned indicators in HSG tissues. RESULT The mRNA and protein expression of autophagy-related proteins were significantly increased in HSG cells costimulated with LPS and MDP for 24 hours. NOD2, TLR4 and the autophagy-related proteins were also highly expressed in residual acini and dilated ducts of chronic submandibular sialadenitis tissues. In addition, PRRs and autophagy markers were obviously colocalized in chronic submandibular sialadenitis tissues and HSG cells. CONCLUSION TLR4 and NOD2 have unique expression sites in salivary glands, and they may synergistically activate autophagy in salivary glands under conditions of inflammation.

Hansson E, Skiöldebrand E. Coupled cell networks are target cells of inflammation, which can spread between different body organs and develop into systemic chronic inflammation.

Abstract
Several organs in the body comprise cells coupled into networks. These cells have in common that they are excitable but do not express action potentials. Furthermore, they are equipped with Ca2+ signaling systems, which can be intercellular and/or extracellular. The transport of small molecules between the cells occurs through gap junctions comprising connexin 43. Examples of cells coupled into networks include astrocytes, keratinocytes, chondrocytes, synovial fibroblasts, osteoblasts, connective tissue cells, cardiac and corneal fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, hepatocytes, and different types of glandular cells. These cells are targets for inflammation, which can be initiated after injury or in disease. If the inflammation reaches the CNS, it develops into neuroinflammation and can be of importance in the development of systemic chronic inflammation, which can manifest as pain and result in changes in the expression and structure of cellular components. Biochemical parameters of importance for cellular functions are described in this review.

S100A8-S100A9 protein complex mediates psoriasis by regulating the expression of complement factor C3. Immunity 2014; 39:1171-81.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a common heterogeneous inflammatory skin disease with a complex pathophysiology and limited treatment options. Here we performed proteomic analyses of human psoriatic epidermis and found S100A8-S100A9, also called calprotectin, as the most upregulated proteins, followed by the complement component C3. Both S100A8-S100A9 and C3 are specifically expressed in lesional psoriatic skin. S100A9 is shown here to function as a chromatin component modulating C3 expression in mouse and human cells by binding to a region upstream of the C3 start site. When S100A9 was genetically deleted in mouse models of skin inflammation, the psoriasis-like skin disease and inflammation were strongly attenuated, with a mild immune infiltrate and decreased amounts of C3. In addition, inhibition of C3 in the mouse model strongly reduced the inflammatory skin disease. Thus, S100A8-S100A9 can regulate C3 at the nuclear level and present potential new therapeutic targets for psoriasis.
