Abstract
Alarmins are immune-activating factors released after cellular injury or death. By secreting alarmins, cells can interact with immune cells and induce a variety of inflammatory responses. The broad family of alarmins involves several members, such as high-mobility group box 1, S100 proteins, interleukin-33, and heat shock proteins, among others. Studies have found that the concentrations and expression profiles of alarmins are altered in immune-mediated diseases. Furthermore, they are involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory conditions. The aim of this narrative review is to present the current evidence on the role of alarmins in rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and psoriasis. We discuss their potential involvement in mechanisms underlying the progression of these diseases and whether they could become therapeutic targets. Moreover, we summarize the impact of pharmacological agents used in the treatment of these diseases on the expression of alarmins.

Abstract
Fibroblasts are ubiquitous cells that can adopt many functional states. As tissue-resident sentinels, they respond to acute damage signals and shape the earliest events in fibrotic and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. Upon sensing an insult, fibroblasts produce chemokines and growth factors to organize and support the response. Depending on the size and composition of the resulting infiltrate, these activated fibroblasts may also begin to contract or relax thus changing local stiffness within the tissue. These early events likely contribute to the divergent clinical manifestations of fibrotic and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. Further, distinct changes to the cellular composition and signaling dialogue in these diseases drive progressive fibroblasts specialization. In fibrotic diseases, fibroblasts support the survival, activation and differentiation of myeloid cells, granulocytes and innate lymphocytes, and produce most of the pathogenic extracellular matrix proteins. Whereas, in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, sequential accumulation of dendritic cells, T cells and B cells programs fibroblasts to support local, destructive adaptive immune responses. Fibroblast specialization has clear implications for the development of effective induction and maintenance therapies for patients with these clinically distinct diseases.

Abstract
Osteoclasts play a critical role in bone pathology frequently associated with autoimmune diseases. Studying the etiopathogenesis of these diseases and their clinical manifestations can involve in vitro osteoclastogenesis, an experimental technique that utilizes osteoclast precursors that are relatively easily accessible from peripheral blood or synovial fluid. However, the increasing number of methodical options to study osteoclastogenesis in vitro poses challenges in translating findings to clinical research and practice. This review compares and critically evaluates previous research work based on in vitro differentiation of human osteoclast precursors originating from patients, which aimed to explain autoimmune pathology in rheumatic and enteropathic diseases. The discussion focuses primarily on methodical differences between the studies, including the origin of osteoclast precursors, culture conditions, and methods for identifying osteoclasts and assessing their activity. Additionally, the review examines the clinical significance of the three most commonly used in vitro approaches: induced osteoclastogenesis, spontaneous osteoclastogenesis, and cell co-culture. By analyzing and integrating the gathered information, this review proposes general connections between different studies, even in cases where their results are seemingly contradictory. The derived conclusions and future directions aim to enhance our understanding of a potential and limitations of in vitro osteoclastogenesis and provide a foundation for discussing novel methods (such as osteoclastogenesis dynamic) and standardized approaches (such as spontaneous osteoclastogenesis) for future use in autoimmune disease research.

Abstract
The study of the immune response in thyroid autoimmunity has been mostly focused on the autoantibodies and lymphocytes, but there are indications that intrinsic features of thyroid tissue cells may play a role in disrupting tolerance that needs further investigation. The overexpression of HLA and adhesion molecules by thyroid follicular cells (TFC) and our recent demonstration that PD-L1 is also moderately expressed by TFCs in autoimmune thyroid indicates that TFCs they may activate but also inhibit the autoimmune response. Intriguingly, we have recently found that in vitro cultured TFCs are able to suppress the proliferation of autologous lymphocyte T in a contact-dependent manner which is independent of the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway. To get a more comprehensive picture of TFC activating and inhibitory molecules/pathways driving the autoimmune response in the thyroid glands, preparations of TFCs and stromal cells from five Graves' disease (GD) and four control thyroid glands were compared by scRNA-seq. The results confirmed the previously described interferon type I and type II signatures in GD TFCs and showed unequivocally that they express the full array of genes that intervene in the processing and presentation of endogenous and exogeneous antigens. GD TFCs lack however expression of costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 required for priming T cells. A moderate overexpression of CD40 by TFCs was confirmed. GD Fibroblasts showed widespread upregulation of cytokine genes. The results from this first single transcriptomic profiling of TFC and thyroid stromal cells provides a more granular view of the events occurring in GD. The new data point at an important contribution of stromal cells and prompt a major re-interpretation of the role of MHC over-expression by TFC, from deleterious to protective. Most importantly this re-interpretation could also apply to other tissues, like pancreatic beta cells, where MHC over-expression has been detected in diabetic pancreas.

Abstract
The innate immune response, particularly the phenotype of responding macrophages, has significant clinical implications in the remodeling outcome following implantation of biomaterials and engineered tissues. In general, facilitation of an anti-inflammatory (M2-like) phenotype is associated with tissue repair and favorable outcomes, whereas pro-inflammatory (M1-like) activation can contribute to chronic inflammation and a classic foreign body response. Biologic scaffolds composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) and, more recently, matrix-bound nanovesicles (MBV) embedded within the ECM are known to direct macrophages toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype and stimulate a constructive remodeling outcome. The mechanisms of MBV-mediated macrophage activation are not fully understood, but interleukin-33 (IL-33) within the MBV appears critical for M2-like activation. Previous work has shown that IL-33 is encapsulated within the lumen of MBV and stimulates phenotypical changes in macrophages independent of its canonical surface receptor stimulation-2 (ST2). In the present study, we used next-generation RNA sequencing to determine the gene signature of macrophages following exposure to MBV with and without intraluminal IL-33. MBV-associated IL-33 instructed an anti-inflammatory phenotype in both wild-type and st2-/- macrophages by upregulating M2-like and downregulating M1-like genes. The repertoire of genes regulated by ST2-independent IL-33 signaling were broadly related to the inflammatory response and crosstalk between cells of both the innate and adaptive immune systems. These results signify the importance of the MBV intraluminal protein IL-33 in stimulating a pro-remodeling M2-like phenotype in macrophages and provides guidance for the designing of next-generation biomaterials and tissue engineering strategies. Impact statement The phenotype of responding macrophages is predictive of the downstream remodeling response to an implanted biomaterial. The clinical impact of macrophage phenotype has motivated studies to investigate the factors that regulate macrophage activation. Matrix-bound nanovesicles (MBV) embedded within the extracellular matrix direct macrophages toward an anti-inflammatory (M2)-like phenotype that is indicative of a favorable remodeling response. Although the mechanisms of MBV-mediated macrophage activation are not fully understood, the intraluminal protein interleukin-33 (IL-33) is clearly a contributing signaling molecule. The present study identifies those genes regulated by MBV-associated IL-33 that promote a pro-remodeling M2-like macrophage activation state and can guide future therapies in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Objectives Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease characterized by osteoproliferation and the degeneration and destruction of articular cartilage. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is rich in various growth factors that have been reported to promote bone defect repair. This study examined the specific role and mechanism of PRP in OA. Methods OA model cells were created by treating articular chondrocytes with IL-1β. After treatment of the model cells with PRP or/and a T-box transcription factor 3 (TBX3)-overexpression plasmid, TBX3 expression was monitored via RT-qPCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence assays. IL-1β, IL-33, and Caspase-3 levels were detected with ELISA kits. Levels of NLRP3, Caspase-1, MMP9, MMP13, and COL2A1 expression were evaluated by western blotting, and cell proliferation was assessed by the CCK-8 assay. Results Our results showed that TBX3 expression was upregulated in IL-1β-induced articular chondrocytes. IL-1β stimulation induced inflammation and the production of matrix metalloproteinases, activated Caspase-3 and the NLRP3/Caspase-1 pathway, inhibited the proliferation of articular chondrocytes; however, all those affects mediated by IL-1β could be markedly reversed by PRP. We also found that PRP alleviated IL-1β-induced inflammation, apoptosis, and extracellular matrix degradation in articular chondrocytes by inhibiting TBX3. Our findings suggest that PRP alleviates OA progression in vitro by downregulating TBX3. Conclusion PRP suppressed OA progression in vitro by inhibiting TBX3, which may be its mechanism of action in treating OA.

Abstract
Our understanding of the functions of the IL-1 superfamily cytokine and damage-associated molecular pattern IL-33 continues to evolve with our understanding of homeostasis and immunity. The early findings that IL-33 is a potent driver of type 2 immune responses promoting parasite expulsion, but also inflammatory diseases like allergy and asthma, have been further supported. Yet, as the importance of a type 2 response in tissue repair and homeostasis has emerged, so has the fundamental importance of IL-33 to these processes. In this review, we outline an evolving understanding of IL-33 immunobiology, paying particular attention to how IL-33 directs a network of ST2+ regulatory T cells, reparative and regulatory macrophages, and type 2 innate lymphoid cells that are fundamental to tissue development, homeostasis, and repair. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Immunology, Volume 40 is April 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), characterized by a high rate of proliferation and migration capacity, is an incurable brain tumor in adults. Interleukin-33 (IL-33), a member of the IL-1 cytokine superfamily, and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5 (ADAMTS5), a family of zinc dependent metalloproteinases, are known to have essential roles in GBM migration and invasion. Previous studies have separately revealed elevated expressions of IL-33 and ADAMTS5 in GBM; however, the interaction between IL-33 and ADAMTS5 in GBM remains unclear. Here, using publically available GlioVis and GEPIA programs, we showed that mRNA expressions of IL-33 and ADAMTS5 are significantly high in GBM cells, and a positive correlation between IL-33 and ADAMTS5 was also determined in these cells. In parallel with the mRNA data of IL-33 and ADAMTS5, by Western blot analysis, protein levels were found to be elevated in GBM tissues and increased gradually with the disease progression. Primary GBM cells and low-grade glioma cells were then treated with IL-33 to examine its stimulating effect on ADAMTS5 expression. Exposure to IL-33 raised ADAMTS5 protein levels in a dose-dependent manner. Finally, the wound-healing method was performed to confirm the impact of IL-33 on migration in primary GBM cells. IL-33 promoted migration of primary GBM cells three times higher than untreated GBM cells. Thus, the current study suggests for the first time that IL-33 might have a role in playing a part in GBM progression through induction of ADAMTS5 expression and promotion of migration in GBM cells.

IL-10 in Mast Cell-Mediated Immune Responses: Anti-Inflammatory and Proinflammatory Roles. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22094972. [PMID: 34067047 PMCID: PMC8124430 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22094972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2021] [Revised: 04/30/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Mast cells (MCs) play critical roles in Th2 immune responses, including the defense against parasitic infections and the initiation of type I allergic reactions. In addition, MCs are involved in several immune-related responses, including those in bacterial infections, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory bowel diseases, cancers, allograft rejections, and lifestyle diseases. Whereas antigen-specific IgE is a well-known activator of MCs, which express FcεRI on the cell surface, other receptors for cytokines, growth factors, pathogen-associated molecular patterns, and damage-associated molecular patterns also function as triggers of MC stimulation, resulting in the release of chemical mediators, eicosanoids, and various cytokines. In this review, we focus on the role of interleukin (IL)-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine, in MC-mediated immune responses, in which MCs play roles not only as initiators of the immune response but also as suppressors of excessive inflammation. IL-10 exhibits diverse effects on the proliferation, differentiation, survival, and activation of MCs in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, IL-10 derived from MCs exerts beneficial and detrimental effects on the maintenance of tissue homeostasis and in several immune-related diseases including contact hypersensitivity, auto-immune diseases, and infections. This review introduces the effects of IL-10 on various events in MCs, and the roles of MCs in IL-10-related immune responses and as a source of IL-10.

Abstract
Background In the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the role of mast cells has not been revealed clearly. We aimed to define the inflammatory and tissue-destructive roles of mast cells in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Serum and synovial fluid (SF) concentration levels of tryptase, chymase, and histamine were quantified using ELISA. After activating mast cells using IL-33, the production of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, RANKL, and MMPs was determined using real-time PCR and ELISA. Osteoclastogenesis was assessed in CD14+ monocytes from peripheral blood and SF, which were cultured with IL-33-activated mast cells, by counting TRAP-positive multinucleated cells. Results The concentration levels of serum tryptase, chymase, and histamine and SF histamine were higher in patients with RA than in controls. FcεR1 and c-kit-positive mast cells were higher in RA synovium than in osteoarthritic (OA) synovium. Stimulation of mast cells by IL-33 increased the number of trypatse+chymase− and tryptase+chymase+ mast cells. IL-33 stimulation also increased the gene expression levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, RANKL, and MMP-9 in mast cells. Furthermore, IL-33 stimulated human CD14+ monocytes to differentiate into TRAP+ multinucleated osteoclasts. When CD14+ monocytes were co-cultured with mast cells, osteoclast differentiation was increased. Additionally, IL-33-activated mast cells stimulated osteoclast differentiation. The inhibition of intercellular contact between mast cells and monocytes using inserts reduced osteoclast differentiation. Conclusions IL-33 increased inflammatory and tissue-destructive cytokines by activation of mast cells. Mast cells stimulated osteoclast differentiation in monocytes. Mast cells could stimulate osteoclastogenesis indirectly through production of tissue-destructive cytokines and directly through stimulation of osteoclast precursors.

Abstract
IL-33 is a member of the IL-1 family of cytokines whose role remains controversial in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The present study was performed to evaluate the correlation of IL-33 with other cytokines and chemokines in serum and the synovia, and to explore the nature of the association. The concentration of IL-33 in samples from 96 patients with RA was analyzed. The response of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) to treatment with different concentrations of IL-33 was assessed in vitro. IL-33 was indicated to exhibit an association with multiple cytokines and chemokines in synovial fluid with an inverted-U-shaped trend, including IL-6, IL-1β, IL-8, MIG and IP-10, but not in the serum. Furthermore, in vitro experiments confirmed that IL-33 also exerted a U-type dose-dependent regulatory effect on FLS function. In addition, the data-points do not exactly follow the U-shaped curve fit in most cases, therefore, the applicability of this mathematical model in clinical practice is limited.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is considered a systemic chronic inflammatory joint disease characterized by chronic synovitis and cartilage and bone destruction. Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a proinflammatory cytokine which is highly expressed in the synovium of RA patients and the joints of mice with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and exacerbates CIA in mice. However, the role of the IL-33-neutralizing antibody in the murine model of CIA remains unclear. In the present study, CIA mice were given intraperitoneally with polyclonal rabbit anti-murine IL-33 antibody (anti-IL-33) or normal rabbit IgG control after the first signs of arthritis. Administration of anti-IL-33 after the onset of disease significantly reduced the severity of CIA and joint damage compared with controls treated with normal rabbit IgG. Anti-IL-33 treatment also significantly decreased the serum levels of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),IL-6, IL-12, IL-33, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Moreover, anti-IL-33 treatment significantly downregulated the production of IFN-γ, IL-6, IL-12, IL-33, and TNF-α in ex vivo-stimulated spleen cells. Together, our results indicate that the IL-33-neutralizing antibody may provide a therapeutic strategy for RA by inhibiting the release of proinflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Interleukin 33 (IL-33) promotes cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) genesis in a mouse model, however, its function in human CCA has not been clearly understood. This study was aimed to investigate IL-33 level in CCA tissues and its clinicopathological correlations. The results revealed that IL-33 was found in both cancer cells and stromal cancer-associated fibroblast (CAFs) staining patterns which were divided into high (CH) and low level (CL) in cancer cells; and presence (FP) and absence (FA) in CAFs. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients in the CL group were significantly correlated with a short 2-year survival time (P = 0.027). The CL/FP group had a shorter survival time compared to the other groups with statistical significance for 2-year (P = 0.030) and 5-year (P = 0.023) survivals. In contrast, CH/FP patients had significantly greater 2-year (P = 0.003) and 5-year (P = 0.003) survivals. Univariate and multivariate analysis confirmed that CL/FP was a significantly independent risk factor whereas CH/FP was a significant protective factor in CCA patients. High IL-33 expressing CCA cells had low migration, but they showed increased migration when IL-33 expression was knocked down. The low level of recombinant human IL-33 (rhIL-33) (0.002 - 2 ng/ml) could promote CCA cell migration, in contrast to the suppressive effect at a high dose (20 - 200 ng/ml). In conclusion, the combination of high IL-33 level in cancer cells and CAFs is a potentially good prognosis marker in CCA patients. The in vitro migration suppressive effect of IL-33 may be the potential mechanism supporting its role as a good prognostic marker in CCA patients. The obtained results strengthen IL-33 as a promising predictor and therapeutic target for CCA.

Pentraxin 3 inhibits fibroblast growth factor 2 induced osteoclastogenesis in rheumatoid arthritis. Biomed Pharmacother 2020; 131:110628. [PMID: 32890968 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2020.110628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Revised: 07/29/2020] [Accepted: 08/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Synovial fibroblasts (SFs) act as key effector cells mediating synovial inflammation and joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) and its receptors (FGFRs) play important roles in RASF-mediated osteoclastogenesis. Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is a soluble pattern recognition receptor with nonredundant roles in inflammation and innate immunity. PTX3 is produced by various cell types, including SFs and is highly expressed in RA. However, the role of PTX3 in FGF2-induced osteoclastogenesis in RA and the underlying mechanism have been poorly elucidated. METHODS We first determined the expression of FGF2 and RANKL in synovial tissue and synovial fluid of RA patients. We then examined the effect of PTX3 on RASF osteoclastogenesis induced by endogenous and exogenous FGF2 in isolated RASF cells treated with FGF2 and/or recombinant PTX3 (rPTX3). Thirdly, we analyzed the effect of PTX3 on FGF2 binding to FGFR-1 and HSPG receptors on RASFs. Lastly, we evaluated joint morphology after injection of rPTX3 into collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice. RESULTS FGF2 was confirmed to be highly expressed in both synovial tissue and synovial fluid of RA patients. FGF2 promoted cell proliferation and increased the expressions of RANKL and ICAM-1 and RANKL/OPG to induce osteoclastogenesis in RASF, while anti-FGF2 neutralized this effect. PTX3 significantly inhibited FGF2-induced RASF cell growth and osteoclastogenesis by preventing the interaction of 125I-FGF2 and FGFRs on the same cells. In addition, administration of rPTX3 significantly ameliorated cartilage and bone destruction in mice with CIA. CONCLUSIONS PTX3 exhibited an inhibitory effect on the autocrine and paracrine stimulation of FGF2 on SFs, and ameliorated bone destruction in CIA mice. PTX3 may be implicated in bone destruction in RA, which may provide theoretical evidence and potential therapeutic targets for RA treatment.

Abstract
Upon viral infection, stressed or damaged cells can release alarmins like IL-33 that act as endogenous danger signals alerting innate and adaptive immune cells. IL-33 coming from nonhematopoietic cells has been identified as important factor triggering the expansion of antiviral CD8+ T cells. In LN the critical cellular source of IL-33 is unknown, as is its potential cell-intrinsic function as a chromatin-associated factor. Using IL-33-GFP reporter mice, we identify fibroblastic reticular cells (FRC) and lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) as the main IL-33 source. In homeostasis, IL-33 is dispensable as a transcriptional regulator in FRC, indicating it functions mainly as released cytokine. Early during infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) clone 13, both FRC and LEC lose IL-33 protein expression suggesting cytokine release, correlating timewise with IL-33 receptor expression by reactive CD8+ T cells and their greatly augmented expansion in WT versus ll33-/- mice. Using mice lacking IL-33 selectively in FRC versus LEC, we identify FRC as key IL-33 source driving acute and chronic antiviral T-cell responses. Collectively, these findings show that LN T-zone FRC not only regulate the homeostasis of naïve T cells but also their expansion and differentiation several days into an antiviral response.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the participation of canonical Wnt and NF-κB signaling pathways in an experimental model of chronic arthritis induced by methylated bovine serum albumin (mBSA) in rat temporomandibular joint (TMJ). MATERIALS AND METHODS Wistar rats were sensitized by mBSA+Complete Freund Adjuvant (CFA)/Incomplete Freund Adjuvant (IFA) on the first 14 days (1 ×/week). Subsequently, they received 1, 2 or 3 mBSA or saline solution injections into the TMJ (1 ×/week). Hypernociceptive threshold was assessed during the whole experimental period. 24 h after the mBSA injections, the TMJs were removed for histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses for TNF-α, IL-1β, NF-κB, RANKL, Wnt-10b, β-catenin and DKK1. RESULTS The nociceptive threshold was significantly reduced after mBSA injections. An inflammatory infiltrate and thickening of the synovial membrane were observed only after mBSA booster injections. Immunolabeling of TNF-α, IL-1β and Wnt-10b was increased in the synovial membrane in arthritic groups. The immunoexpression of nuclear β-catenin was significantly higher only in the group that received 2 booster TMJ injections. However, NF-κB, RANKL and DKK1 immunoexpression were increased only in animals with 3 mBSA intra-articular injections. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that canonical Wnt and NF-κB signaling pathways participate in the hypernociception and inflammatory response in TMJ synovial membrane during the development of rheumatoid arthritis in rats.

Abstract
IL-33 is a cytokine that belongs to the IL-1 family and is classically associated with type 2-like immune responses. In the adipose tissue, IL-33 is related to the beiging of adipocytes and to the maintenance of adipose tissue-resident immune cells, such as innate lymphoid cells 2, alternatively activated macrophages and regulatory T cells, which contribute to the maintenance of adipose tissue homeostasis. In the obese adipose tissue, the number of these cells is diminished, unlike the expression of IL-33, which is up-regulated. However, despite its increased expression, IL-33 is not able to maintain the homeostasis of the obese adipose tissue. IL-33 treatment, on the other hand, highly improves obesity-related inflammatory and metabolic alterations. The evidence that exogenous IL-33, but not adipose tissue-driven IL-33, regulates the inflammatory process in obesity leaves a gap in the understanding of IL-33 biology. Thus, in this review we discuss the potential mechanisms associated with the impaired action of IL-33 in obesity.

Abstract
Objectives Soluble IL‐33 (interleukin (IL)‐1‐like cytokine) acts as endogenous alarm signal (alarmin). Since alarmins, besides activating immune system, act to restore tissue homeostasis, we investigated whether IL‐33 exerts beneficial effects on oral stem cell pull. Materials and Methods Clonogenicity, proliferation, differentiation and senescence of stem cells derived from human periodontal ligament (PDLSCs) and dental pulp (DPSCs) were determined after in vitro exposure to IL‐33. Cellular changes were detected by flow cytometry, Western blot, immunocytochemistry and semiquantitative RT‐PCR. Results IL‐33 stimulated proliferation, clonogenicity and expression of pluripotency markers, OCT‐4, SOX‐2 and NANOG, but it inhibited ALP activity and mineralization in both PDLSCs and DPSCs. Higher Ki67 expression and reduced β‐galactosidase activity in IL‐33‐treated cells were demonstrated, whereas these trends were more conspicuous in osteogenic medium. However, after 7‐day IL‐33 pretreatment, differentiation capacity of IL‐33‐pretreated cells was retained, and increased ALP activity was observed in both cell types. Results showed that IL‐33 regulates NF‐κB and β‐catenin signalling, indicating the association of these molecules with changes observed in IL‐33‐treated PDLSCs and DPSCs, particularly their proliferation, pluripotency‐associated marker expression and osteogenesis. Conclusions IL‐33 treatment impairs osteogenesis of PDLSCs and DPSCs, while increases their clonogenicity, proliferation and pluripotency marker expression. After exposure to IL‐33, osteogenic capacity of cells stayed intact. NF‐κB and β‐catenin are implicated in the effects achieved by IL‐33 in PDLSCs and DPSCs.

CYLD suppression enhances the pro-inflammatory effects and hyperproliferation of rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes by enhancing NF-κB activation. Arthritis Res Ther 2018; 20:219. [PMID: 30285829 PMCID: PMC6169018 DOI: 10.1186/s13075-018-1722-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2018] [Accepted: 09/11/2018] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLSs) actively drive joint inflammation and degradation by producing inflammatory cytokines and matrix-degrading molecules, making them key factors in the pathogenesis of RA. Cylindromatosis (CYLD) is a tumor suppressor that downregulates nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) activation by deubiquitinating NF-κB essential modulator and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factors 2 and 6. In this study, we aimed to determine CYLD expression in the synovium of patients with RA, analyze its correlation with NF-κB activation and clinical disease activity, further investigate CYLD expression in RA-FLSs, and explore CYLD’s roles and mechanisms in the pro-inflammatory effects, proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycles of RA-FLSs. Methods We obtained synovia from 50 patients with active RA and 20 with osteoarthritis (OA) and then cultured FLSs from the samples. We determined CYLD expression in the synovia of RA patients and in FLSs via reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). CYLD was depleted by lentiviral CYLD short hairpin ribonucleic acid. We used RT-PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to analyze the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL). We detected cell proliferation using Cell Counting Kit-8 and examined cell apoptosis and cell cycle using flow cytometry. Results We obtained the following results:In synovia from patients with RA, CYLD expression was significantly downregulated while NF-κB expression was distinctly upregulated, compared with synovia from patients with OA. Thus, there is a significant inverse correlation between CYLD and NF-κB in synovia affected by RA. CYLD expression significantly decreased in RA-FLSs compared with OA-FLSs. CYLD suppression enhanced the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, MMPs, and RANKL by activating NF-κB in RA-FLSs. CYLD suppression enhanced proliferation, reduced apoptosis, and increased cell division of RA-FLSs and aggravated the activity of NF-κB in RA-FLSs.
Conclusions Via its regulation of NF-κB activation, CYLD may be involved in the pathogenesis of synovial inflammation in RA as well as in the pro-inflammatory effects and hyperproliferation of RA-FLSs. CYLD may therefore provide a potential target for the treatment of RA.

Abstract
Interleukin 33 (IL-33), which is expressed by several immune cell types, endothelial and epithelial cells, and fibroblasts, is a cytokine of the IL-1 family that acts both intra- and extracellularly to either enhance or resolve the inflammatory response. Intracellular IL-33 acts in the nucleus as a regulator of transcription. Once released from cells by mechanical stress, inflammatory cytokines, or necrosis, extracellular IL-33 is proteolytically processed to act in an autocrine/paracrine manner as an 'alarmin' on neighbouring or various immune cells expressing the ST2 receptor. Thus, IL-33 may serve an important role in tissue preservation and repair in response to injury; however, the actions of IL-33 are dampened by a soluble form of ST2 (sST2) that acts as a decoy receptor and is produced by endothelial and certain immune cells. Accumulating evidence supports the conclusion that sST2 is a biomarker of vascular health with diagnostic and/or prognostic value in various cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, atherosclerosis, giant-cell arteritis, acute aortic dissection, and ischaemic stroke, as well as obesity and diabetes. Although sST2 levels are positively associated with cardiovascular disease severity, the assumption that IL-33 is always beneficial is naïve. It is increasingly appreciated that the pathophysiological importance of IL-33 is highly dependent on cellular and temporal expression. Although IL-33 is atheroprotective and may prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes by regulating lipid metabolism, IL-33 appears to drive endothelial inflammation. Here, we review the current knowledge of the IL-33/ST2/sST2 signalling network and discuss its pathophysiological and translational implications in cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the synovial joints. Though the current RA therapeutics such as disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and biologics can halt the progression of the disease, none of these would either dramatically reduce or cure RA. So, the identification of potential therapeutic targets and new therapies for RA are active areas of research. Several studies have discovered the involvement of cytokines in the pathogenesis of this disease. These cytokines induce signal transduction pathways in RA synovial fibroblasts (RASF). These pathways share many signal transducers and their interacting proteins, resulting in the formation of a signaling network. In order to understand the involvement of this network in RA pathogenesis, it is essential to identify the key transducers and their interacting proteins that are part of this network. In this study, based on a detailed literature survey, we have identified a list of 12 cytokines that induce signal transduction pathways in RASF. For these cytokines, we have built a signaling network using the protein-protein interaction (PPI) data that was obtained from public repositories such as HPRD, BioGRID, MINT, IntAct and STRING. By combining the network centrality measures with the gene expression data from the RA related microarrays that are available in the open source Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, we have identified 24 key proteins of this signaling network. Two of these 24 are already drug targets for RA, and of the remaining, 12 have direct PPI links to some of the current drug targets of RA. Therefore, these key proteins seem to be crucial in the pathogenesis of RA and hence might be treated as potential drug targets.

Abstract
The ST2 receptor is a member of the Toll/IL-1R superfamily and interleukin-33 (IL-33) is its agonist. Recently, it has been demonstrated that IL-33/ST2 axis plays key roles in inflammation and immune mediated diseases. Here, we investigated the effect of ST2 deficiency in Staphylococcus aureus-induced septic arthritis physiopathology. Synovial fluid samples from septic arthritis and osteoarthritis individuals were assessed regarding IL-33 and soluble (s) ST2 levels. The IL-33 levels in samples from synovial fluid were significantly increased, whereas no sST2 levels were detected in patients with septic arthritis when compared with osteoarthritis individuals. The intra-articular injection of 1 × 107 colony-forming unity/10 μl of S. aureus American Type Culture Collection 6538 in wild-type (WT) mice induced IL-33 and sST2 production with a profile resembling the observation in the synovial fluid of septic arthritis patients. Data using WT, and ST2 deficient (−/−) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ)−/− mice showed that ST2 deficiency shifts the immune balance toward a type 1 immune response that contributes to eliminating the infection due to enhanced microbicide effect via NO production by neutrophils and macrophages. In fact, the treatment of ST2−/− bone marrow-derived macrophage cells with anti-IFN-γ abrogates the beneficial phenotype in the absence of ST2, which confirms that ST2 deficiency leads to IFN-γ expression and boosts the bacterial killing activity of macrophages against S. aureus. In agreement, WT cells achieved similar immune response to ST2 deficiency by IFN-γ treatment. The present results unveil a previously unrecognized beneficial effect of ST2 deficiency in S. aureus-induced septic arthritis.

Abstract
There is compelling evidence that inflammation contributes to tumorigenesis. Inflammatory mediators within the tumor microenvironment can either promote an antitumor immune response or support tumor pathogenesis. Therefore, it is critical to determine the relative contribution of tumor-associated inflammatory pathways to cancer development. Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a member of the IL-1 family of cytokines that is released upon tissue stress or damage to operate as an alarmin. IL-33 has been primarily implicated in the induction of type-2 immune responses. However, recent findings have shown a role of IL-33 in several cancers where it may exert multiple functions. In this review, we will present the current knowledge on the role of IL-33 in the microenvironment of different tumors. We will highlight which cells produce and which cells are activated by IL-33 in cancer. Furthermore, we will explain how IL-33 modulates the tumor-associated inflammatory microenvironment to restrain or promote tumorigenesis. Finally, we will discuss the issues to be addressed first before potentially targeting the IL-33 pathway for cancer therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent works have suggested a possible link between interleukin (IL)-33 and B-cell biology. We aimed to study the possible association between serum IL-33 detection and response to rituximab (RTX) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients in different cohorts with an accurate enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). METHODS Serum IL-33, rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP), and high serum immunoglobulin (Ig)G levels were assessed in 111 RA patients receiving a first course of 2 g RTX (cohort 1) in an observational study and in 74 RA patients treated with the same schedule in routine care (cohort 2). Univariate and multivariate analyses identified factors associated with a European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) response at 24 weeks. RESULTS At week 24, 84/111 (76%) and 54/74 (73%) patients reached EULAR response in cohorts 1 and 2, respectively. Serum IL-33 was detectable in only 33.5% of the patients. In the combined cohorts, the presence of RF or anti-CCP (odds ratio (OR) 3.27, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.13-9.46; p = 0.03), high serum IgG (OR 2.32, 95% CI 1.01-5.33; p = 0.048), and detectable serum IL-33 (OR 2.40, 95% CI 1.01-5.72; p = 0.047) were all associated with RTX response in multivariate analysis. The combination of these three factors increased the likelihood of response to RTX. When serum IL-33 detection was added to seropositivity and serum IgG level, 100% of the patients with the three risk factors (corresponding to 9% of the population) responded to RTX (OR versus patients with none of the three risk factors 29.61, 95% CI 1.30-674.79; p = 0.034). CONCLUSION Detectable serum IL-33 may predict clinical response to RTX independently of, and synergistically with, auto-antibodies and serum IgG level. TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT01126541 ; 18 May 2010.

Abstract
Alarmins are endogenous molecules with homeostatic roles that have reached the focus of research in inflammatory arthritis in the last two decades, mostly due to their ability to indicate tissue related damage after active or passive release from injured cells. From HMGB1, S100A8/A9 and S100A12 proteins, over heat-shock proteins (HSPs) and purine metabolites (e.g. uric acid, ATP) to altered matrix proteins and interleukin-33 (IL-33), a number of alarmins have been determined until now as having a role in rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic and juvenile idiopathic arthritis, as well as spondyloarthritis and gout. Although formerly being linked to initiation and chronification of inflammatory arthritis, driving auto- and paracrine inflammatory loops, more recent research has also unraveled the alarmins' role in the crosstalk between innate and adaptive immunity and in resolution of inflammation. Providing a state-of-the-art overview of known alarmins, this review lists the known modes of action and pathologic contribution of alarmins to inflammatory arthritis, as well as biomarker potential of alarmins in the clinical setting for tracking disease severity. Based upon research on animal experimental models (CIA, AIA) and clinical trials, a look is made into potentially viable strategies for modifying alarmin secretion and their target receptor (e.g. TLR, RAGE) interaction with the purpose of attenuating arthritic disease.
