Abstract
Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Studies have indicated that immune dysfunction plays a central role in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a crucial role in the emergence of immune dysfunction in sepsis. The major manifestations of DCs in the septic state are abnormal functions and depletion in numbers, which are linked to higher mortality and vulnerability to secondary infections in sepsis. Apoptosis is the most widely studied pathway of number reduction in DCs. In the past few years, there has been a surge in studies focusing on regulated cell death (RCD). This emerging field encompasses various forms of cell death, such as necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and autophagy-dependent cell death (ADCD). Regulation of DC's RCD can serve as a possible therapeutic focus for the treatment of sepsis. Throughout time, numerous tactics have been devised and effectively implemented to improve abnormal immune response during sepsis progression, including modifying the functions of DCs and inhibiting DC cell death. In this review, we provide an overview of the functional impairment and RCD of DCs in septic states. Also, we highlight recent advances in targeting DCs to regulate host immune response following septic challenge.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of Pink1/Parkin-mediated mitochondrial autophagy in exertional heat stroke-induced acute lung injury in rats. METHODS Sixty SD rats were divided into four groups: normal group (CON group), normal Parkin overexpression group (CON + Parkin group), exertional heat stroke group (EHS group), and exertional heat stroke Parkin overexpression group (EHS + Parkin group). Adeno-associated virus carrying the Parkin gene was intravenously injected into the rats to overexpress Parkin in the lung tissue. An exertional heat stroke rat model was established, and survival curves were plotted. Lung micro-CT was performed, and lung coefficient and pulmonary microvascular permeability were measured. RESULTS Compared with the EHS group, the survival rate of rats in the EHS + Parkin overexpression group was significantly increased, lung coefficient and pulmonary microvascular permeability were reduced, and pathological changes such as exudation and consolidation were significantly reduced. The levels of inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-1β, TNF- α, and ROS were significantly decreased; the degree of mitochondrial swelling in type II alveolar epithelial cells was reduced, and no vacuolization was observed. Lung tissue apoptosis was reduced, and the colocalization fluorescence of Pink1 and Parkin, as well as LC3 and Tom20, were increased. The expression of Parkin and LC3-II/LC3-I ratio in lung tissue were both increased, while the expression of P62, Pink1, MFN2, and PTEN-L was decreased. CONCLUSION Impairment of Pink1/Parkin-mediated mitochondrial autophagy function is one of the mechanisms of exertional heat stroke-induced acute lung injury in rats. Activation of the Pink1/Parkin pathway can alleviate acute lung injury caused by exertional heat stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dysregulated alterations in organelle structure and function have a significant connection with cell death, as well as the occurrence and development of inflammatory diseases. Maintaining cell viability and inhibiting the release of inflammatory cytokines are essential measures to treat inflammatory diseases. Recently, many studies have showed that autophagy selectively targets dysfunctional organelles, thereby sustaining the functional stability of organelles, alleviating the release of multiple cytokines, and maintaining organismal homeostasis. Organellophagy dysfunction is critically engaged in different kinds of cell death and inflammatory diseases. AIM OF REVIEW We summarized the current knowledge of organellophagy (e.g., mitophagy, reticulophagy, golgiphagy, lysophagy, pexophagy, nucleophagy, and ribophagy) and the underlying mechanisms by which organellophagy regulates cell death. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW We outlined the potential role of organellophagy in the modulation of cell fate during the inflammatory response to develop an intervention strategy for the organelle quality control in inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Mitochondria are the centers of energy and material metabolism, and they also serve as the storage and dispatch hubs of metal ions. Damage to mitochondrial structure and function can cause abnormal levels and distribution of metal ions, leading to cell dysfunction and even death. For a long time, mitochondrial quality control pathways such as mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy have been considered to inhibit metal-induced cell death. However, with the discovery of new metal-dependent cell death including ferroptosis and cuproptosis, increasing evidence shows that there is a complex relationship between mitochondrial quality control and metal-dependent cell death. This article reviews the latest research results and mechanisms of crosstalk between mitochondrial quality control and metal-dependent cell death in recent years, as well as their involvement in neurodegenerative diseases, tumors and other diseases, in order to provide new ideas for the research and treatment of related diseases.

Matrix metalloproteinase-8 regulates dendritic cell tolerance in late polymicrobial sepsis via the nuclear factor kappa-B p65/β-catenin pathway. BURNS & TRAUMA 2024; 12:tkad025.

Abstract
Background Tolerogenic dendritic cells (DCs) are associated with poor prognosis of sepsis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been shown to have immunomodulatory effects. However, whether MMPs are involved in the functional reprogramming of DCs is unknown. The study aims to investigate the role of MMPs in sepsis-induced DCs tolerance and the potential mechanisms. Methods A murine model of late sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The expression levels of members of the MMP family were detected in sepsis-induced tolerogenic DCs by using microarray assessment. The potential roles and mechanisms underlying MMP8 in the differentiation, maturation and functional reprogramming of DCs during late sepsis were assessed both in vitro and in vivo. Results DCs from late septic mice expressed higher levels of MMP8, MMP9, MMP14, MMP19, MMP25 and MMP27, and MMP8 levels were the highest. MMP8 deficiency significantly alleviated sepsis-induced immune tolerance of DCs both in vivo and in vitro. Adoptive transfer of MMP8 knockdown post-septic bone marrow-derived DCs protected mice against sepsis-associated lethality and organ dysfunction, inhibited regulatory T-cell expansion and enhanced Th1 response. Furthermore, the effect of MMP8 on DC tolerance was found to be associated with the nuclear factor kappa-B p65/β-catenin pathway. Conclusions Increased MMP8 levels in septic DCs might serve as a negative feedback loop, thereby suppressing the proinflammatory response and inducing DC tolerance.

Abstract
Mitochondria produce adenosine triphosphate and potentially contribute to proinflammatory responses and cell death. Mitophagy, as a conservative phenomenon, scavenges waste mitochondria and their components in the cell. Recent studies suggest that severe infections develop alongside mitochondrial dysfunction and mitophagy abnormalities. Restoring mitophagy protects against excessive inflammation and multiple organ failure in sepsis. Here, we review the normal mitophagy process, its interaction with invading microorganisms and the immune system, and summarize the mechanism of mitophagy dysfunction during severe infection. We highlight critical role of normal mitophagy in preventing severe infection.

Abstract
PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) is a mitochondrial kinase that protects against oxidative stress-induced cellular death. PINK1 deletion, on the other hand, disrupts mitochondrial calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis in various brain disorders. This study looked at how PINK1 affects hippocampal intracellular Ca2+ changes in mice with septic encephalopathy. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 5 mg/kg) to induce septic encephalopathy; then, fiber photometry was used to record hippocampal Ca2+ transients during behavioral tests in freely moving mice. Basal cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels were detected under a fluorescent microscope. LPS induced PINK1 expression and neuronal loss in the hippocampus of mice, whereas no difference in neuronal counts was shown between PINK1 knockout LPS mice and WT LPS mice. PINK1 deficiency led to inhibited Ca2+ transients and increased intracellular Ca2+ levels in the hippocampus of mice, thus, significantly aggravating the cognitive dysfunction in septic mice. An analysis of Parkin and PLC-γ1, downstream effectors of PINK1, showed that they are associated with the effects of PINK1. These results demonstrate that PINK1 deficiency disrupts intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and exacerbates septic encephalopathy. This observation suggests a protective role of PINK1 in septic encephalopathy.

Abstract
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory disease caused by an infection that can lead to multiple organ failure. Sepsis alters energy metabolism, leading to metabolic reprogramming of immune cells, which consequently disrupts innate and adaptive immune responses, triggering hyperinflammation and immunosuppression. This review summarizes metabolic reprogramming and its regulatory mechanism in sepsis-induced hyperinflammation and immunosuppression, highlights the significance and intricacies of immune cell metabolic reprogramming, and emphasizes the pivotal role of mitochondria in metabolic regulation and treatment of sepsis. This review provides an up-to-date overview of the relevant literature to inform future research directions in understanding the regulation of sepsis immunometabolism. Metabolic reprogramming has great promise as a new target for sepsis treatment in the future.

Abstract
Sepsis is associated with profound immune dysregulation that increases the risk for life-threatening secondary infections: Dendritic cells (DCs) undergo functional reprogramming due to yet unknown changes during differentiation in the bone marrow (BM). In parallel, lymphopenia and exhaustion of T lymphocytes interfere with antigen-specific adaptive immunity. We hypothesized that there exists a link between T cells and the modulation of DC differentiation in the BM during murine polymicrobial sepsis. Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), a model for human bacterial sepsis. At different time points after CLP, the BM and spleen were analyzed in terms of T-cell subpopulations, activation, and Interferon (IFN)-γ synthesis as well as the number of pre-DCs. BM-derived DCs were generated in vitro. We observed that naïve and virtual memory CD8+ T cells, but not CD4+ T cells, were activated in an antigen-independent manner and accumulated in the BM early after CLP, whereas lymphopenia was evident in the spleen. The number of pre-DCs strongly declined during acute sepsis in the BM and almost recovered by day 4 after CLP, which required the presence of CD8+ T cells. Adoptive transfer experiments and in vitro studies with purified T cells revealed that Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) signaling in CD8+ T cells suppressed their capacity to secrete IFN-γ and was sufficient to change the transcriptome of the BM during sepsis. Moreover, the diminished IFN-γ production of CD8+ T cells favored the differentiation of DCs with increased production of the immune-activating cytokine Interleukin (IL)-12. These data identify a novel role of CD8+ T cells in the BM during sepsis as they sense TLR2 ligands and control the number and function of de novo differentiating DCs.
