J Leukoc Biol 2024; 115:511-524. [PMID: 37952106 PMCID: PMC10890839 DOI: 10.1093/jleuko/qiad141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Tissue infiltration by circulating leukocytes via directed migration (also referred to as chemotaxis) is a common pathogenic mechanism of inflammatory diseases. G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are essential for sensing chemokine gradients and directing the movement of leukocytes during immune responses. The tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 8-like (TIPE or TNFAIP8L) family of proteins are newly described pilot proteins that control directed migration of murine leukocytes. However, how leukocytes integrate site-specific directional cues, such as chemokine gradients, and utilize GPCR and TIPE proteins to make directional decisions are not well understood. Using both gene knockdown and biochemical methods, we demonstrated here that 2 human TIPE family members, TNFAIP8 and TIPE2, were essential for directed migration of human CD4+ T cells. T cells deficient in both of these proteins completely lost their directionality. TNFAIP8 interacted with the Gαi subunit of heterotrimeric (α, β, γ) G proteins, whereas TIPE2 bound to PIP2 and PIP3 to spatiotemporally control immune cell migration. Using deletion and site-directed mutagenesis, we established that Gαi interacted with TNFAIP8 through its C-terminal amino acids, and that TIPE2 protein interacted with PIP2 and PIP3 through its positively charged amino acids on the α0 helix and at the grip-like entrance. We also discovered that TIPE protein membrane translocation (i.e. crucial for sensing chemokine gradients) was dependent on PIP2. Collectively, our work describes a new mechanistic paradigm for how human T cells integrate GPCR and phospholipid signaling pathways to control directed migration. These findings have implications for therapeutically targeting TIPE proteins in human inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

[PMID: 37451566 DOI: 10.1016/j.exer.2023.109572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
Our previous research shown that tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced protein 8 (TNFAIP8) is elevated in the plasma extracellular vesicles and vitreous humor in diabetic retinopathy (DR). TNFAIP8 also significantly increases the viability of human retinal microvascular endothelial cells (HRMECs) and promotes cell migration and tube formation in vitro. To comprehensively explore its role in DR, we investigated the effect of TNFAIP8 on DR development using an animal model in this study. A TNFAIP8-overexpressing adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector and streptozotocin-induced mouse model was used. The AAV-TNFAIP8 vector was injected into the mice intravitreally, and the effect was evaluated. The evaluation included analysis of retinal structure and function using electroretinography, optical coherence tomography, and histological assessment. The influence of TNFAIP8 on the avascular area, retinal leukostasis, and the expression levels of inflammatory factors was also determined. TNFAIP8 significantly decreased a/b-wave amplitude and retinal thickness in diabetic mice. Histological assessment showed that TNFAIP8 aggravated pathological abnormalities with distorted organization of the retina. TNFAIP8 also significantly increased the avascular area, leukostasis, and the expression of inflammatory factors, such as TNFα, IL1β, ICAM1, and GFAP, in the retina. The results of this study support the role of TNFAIP8 in DR pathogenesis. A mechanistic understanding of TNFAIP8 may offer novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Objectives: The TNFAIP8 gene family and TNFAIP2 gene are inextricably linked to an elevated risk of cancer development. This systemic review and meta-analysis seeks to establish the relationship between TNFAIP8 (rs11064, rs1045241, rs1045242, and rs3813308), TNFAIP8L1 (rs1060555), and TNFAIP2 (rs710100 and rs8126) polymorphisms with the risk of cancer. Methods and Materials: A systematic search of multiple databases from January 2022 to April 2022 was used to identify relevant studies. Odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% CI and p-value were calculated to assess the association. Bonferroni correction was performed to correct p-values. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) and in-silico messenger RNA expression were also performed. Review Manager 5.4 software was used for performing this meta-analysis. Results: This study comprised 6909 cancer patients and 7087 healthy participants from 14 studies. Four genetic models of rs11064 (codominant 2 [COD2]: OR = 2.30, p = 7.83 × 10-5; codominant 3 [COD3]: OR = 2.10, p = .0006; recessive model [RM]: OR = 2.24, p = .0001; AC: OR = 1.47, p = .037), two genetic models of rs1045241 (codominant 1 [COD1]: OR = 1.27, p = .009; overdominant model [ODM]: OR = 1.24, p = .018), four genetic models of rs1045242 (COD1: OR = 1.52, p = .005; dominant model (DM): OR = 1.56, p = .002; OD: OR = 1.48, p = .008; AC: OR = 1.48, p = .002), and three genetic models of rs8126 (COD2: OR = 1.41, p = .0005; COD3: OR = 1.44, p = .0002; RM: OR = 1.43, p = .0001) were statistically linked to cancer risk. Only one genetic model of rs1060555 polymorphism showed a significant protective association with cancer (COD2: OR = 0.80, p = .048). The outcomes of TSA also validated the findings of the meta-analysis. Conclusion: This study summarizes that rs11064, rs1045241, and rs1045242 polymorphisms of TNFAIP8 gene and rs8126 polymorphism of TNFAIP2 gene are significantly linked with the risk of cancer development. This meta-analysis was registered at INPLASY (registration number: INPLASY202270073).
