Abstract
Neutrophils are the most frequent immune cell type in peripheral blood, performing an essential role against pathogens. People with neutrophil deficiencies are susceptible to deadly infections, highlighting the importance of generating these cells in host immunity. Neutrophils can be generated from hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) using a cocktail of cytokines. In addition, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) can be differentiated into various functional cell types, including neutrophils. iPSCs can be derived from differentiated cells, such as skin and blood cells, by reprogramming them to a pluripotent state. Neutrophil generation from iPSCs involves a multistep process that can be performed through feeder cell-dependent and feeder cell-independent manners. Various cytokines and growth factors, in particular, stem cell facto, IL-3, thrombopoietin and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), are used in both methods, especially, G-CSF which induces the final differentiation of neutrophils in the granulocyte lineage. iPSC-derived neutrophils have been used as a valuable tool for studying rare genetic disorders affecting neutrophils. The iPSC-derived neutrophils can also be used for disease modeling, infection research and drug discovery. However, several challenges must be overcome before iPSC-derived neutrophils can be used therapeutically in transplantation medicine. This review provides an overview of the commonly employed protocols for generating neutrophils from HPCs, ESCs and iPSCs and discusses the potential applications of the generated cells in research and medicine.

Higher proinflammatory responses possibly contributing to suppressed cytotoxicity in patients with COVID-19 associated mucormycosis. Immunobiology 2023; 228:152384. [PMID: 37071959 PMCID: PMC10089671 DOI: 10.1016/j.imbio.2023.152384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/09/2023] [Indexed: 04/20/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION COVID-19 Associated Mucormycosis (CAM), an opportunistic fungal infection, surged during the second wave of SARS Cov-2 pandemic. Since immune responses play an important role in controlling this infection in immunocompetent hosts, it is required to understand immune perturbations associated with this condition for devising immunotherapeutic strategies for its control. We conducted a study to determine different immune parameters altered in CAM cases as compared to COVID-19 patients without CAM. METHODOLOGY Cytokine levels in serum samples of CAM cases (n = 29) and COVID-19 patients without CAM (n = 20) were determined using luminex assay. Flow cytometric assays were carried out in 20 CAM cases and 10 controls for determination of frequency of NK cells, DCs, phagocytes, T cells and their functionalities. The cytokine levels were analyzed for their association with each other as well as with T cell functionality. The immune parameters were also analyzed with respect to the known risk factors such as diabetes mellitus and steroid treatment. RESULTS Significant reduction in frequencies of total and CD56 + CD16 + NK cells (cytotoxic subset) was noted in CAM cases. Degranulation responses indicative of cytotoxicity of T cell were significantly hampered in CAM cases as compared to the controls. Conversely, phagocytic functions showed no difference in CAM cases versus their controls except for migratory potential which was found to be enhanced in CAM cases. Levels of proinflammatory cytokines such as IFN-γ, IL-2, TNF-α, IL-17, IL-1β, IL-18 and MCP-1 were significantly elevated in cases as compared to the control with IFN-γ and IL-18 levels correlating negatively with CD4 T cell cytotoxicity. Steroid administration was associated with higher frequency of CD56 + CD16- NK cells (cytokine producing subset) and higher MCP-1 levels. Whereas diabetic participants had higher phagocytic and chemotactic potential and had higher levels of IL-6, IL-17 and MCP-1. CONCLUSION CAM cases differed from the controls in terms of higher titers of proinflammatory cytokines, reduced frequency of total and cytotoxic CD56 + CD16 + NK cell. They also had reduced T cell cytotoxicity correlating inversely with IFN-γ and IL-18 levels, possibly indicating induction of negative feedback mechanisms while diabetes mellitus or steroid administration did not affect the responses negatively.

Abstract
We describe an immunofluorescence test to detect neutrophil-specific antibodies using neutrophils fixed to a slide and frozen prior to use. In titration studies using NA1, NA2 and NB1 antisera the technique was less sensitive than the standard immunofluorescence test but did enable slides to be stored for at least 5 months with no loss of NA1, NA2 and NB1 antigens. This technique can be used as a simple alternative to neutrophil cytoplasts for the identification of neutrophil antibodies. However, its use as a screening test in neutrophil serology is limited by the occurrence of false negative reactions with weakly reactive antisera.
