Abstract
Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), as the "sensors" in the immune response, play a prominent role in recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and initiating an effective defense response to pathogens in Lepidoptera. It is becoming increasingly clear that damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) normally play a physiological role within cells; however, when exposed to extracellular, they may become "part-time" critical signals of the immune response. Based on research in recent years, we review herein typical PRRs of Lepidoptera, including peptidoglycan recognition protein (PGRP), gram-negative binding protein (GNBP), β-1,3-glucan recognition protein (βGRP), C-type lectin (CTL), and scavenger receptor (SR). We also outline the ways in which DAMPs participate in the immune response and the correlation between PRRs and immune escape. Taken together, these findings suggest that the role of PRRs in insect innate immunity may be much greater than expected and that it is possible to recognize a broader range of signaling molecules.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Immune system dysregulation is hypothesised to be central to the aetiopathogenesis of schizophrenia; however, the role of sterile inflammation remains unclear. Damage associated molecular patterns are key initiators of sterile inflammation and are detectable in peripheral blood. METHODS A defined systematic search of the Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus was performed to identify adult case-control studies published between January 1990 and June 2022. Three studies consisting of 242 cases and 83 controls met inclusion for the systematic review and meta-analysis of HMGB1 while twenty-eight studies consisting of 1,544 cases and 1,248 healthy controls were included for S100B. RESULTS A significant standardised mean difference in peripheral S100B and HMGB1 concentrations was detected between cases and controls. S100B subgroup analysis determined the largest significant effect size for unmedicated individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia. CONCLUSION This study provides evidence that peripheral S100B and HMGB1 concentrations are elevated in individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia when compared with healthy controls. These results should be interpreted with caution as significant heterogeneity was present during meta-analysis of S100B in the entire sample and in sub-group analysis. The persistence of significant heterogeneity throughout subgroup analysis indicates that the current diagnostic groupings may be a barrier to understanding human behaviours and emotions.

Endothelial Dysfunction Induced by Extracellular Neutrophil Traps Plays Important Role in the Occurrence and Treatment of Extracellular Neutrophil Traps-Related Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23105626. [PMID: 35628437 PMCID: PMC9147606 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23105626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Many articles have demonstrated that extracellular neutrophil traps (NETs) are often described as part of the antibacterial function. However, since the components of NETs are non-specific, excessive NETs usually cause inflammation and tissue damage. Endothelial dysfunction (ED) caused by NETs is the major focus of tissue damage, which is highly related to many inflammatory diseases. Therefore, this review summarizes the latest advances in the primary and secondary mechanisms between NETs and ED regarding inflammation as a mediator. Moreover, the detailed molecular mechanisms with emphasis on the disadvantages from NETs are elaborated: NETs can use its own enzymes, release particles as damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and activate the complement system to interact with endothelial cells (ECs), drive ECs damage and eventually aggravate inflammation. In view of the role of NETs-induced ED in different diseases, we also discussed possible molecular mechanisms and the treatments of NETs-related diseases.

Abstract
Physiological changes in animals exposed to elevated ambient temperature are characterized by the redistribution of blood toward the periphery to dissipate heat, with a consequent decline in blood flow and oxygen and nutrient supply to splanchnic tissues. Metabolic adaptations and gut dysfunction lead to oxidative stress, translocation of lumen contents, and release of proinflammatory mediators, activating a systemic inflammatory response. This review discusses the activation and development of the inflammatory response in heat-stressed models.

Abstract
Stroke is a very common disease being the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. The immune response subsequent to an ischemic stroke is a crucial factor in its physiopathology and outcome. This response is not limited to the injury site. In fact, the immune response to the ischemic process mobilizes mainly circulating cells which upon activation will be recruited to the injury site. When a stroke occurs, molecules that are usually retained inside the cell bodies are released into the extracellular space by uncontrolled cell death. These molecules can bind to the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in circulating immune cells which are then activated, eliciting, although not exclusively, the inflammatory response to the stroke. In this review, we present an up-to-date summary of the role of the different peripheral immune cells in stroke as well as the role of TLR4 in the function of each cell type in ischemia. Also, we summarize the different antagonists developed against TLR4 and their potential as a pharmacological tool for stroke treatment.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) possess the ability to integrate information about their environment and communicate it to other leukocytes, shaping adaptive and innate immunity. Over the years, a variety of cell types have been called DCs on the basis of phenotypic and functional attributes. Here, we refocus attention on conventional DCs (cDCs), a discrete cell lineage by ontogenetic and gene expression criteria that best corresponds to the cells originally described in the 1970s. We summarize current knowledge of mouse and human cDC subsets and describe their hematopoietic development and their phenotypic and functional attributes. We hope that our effort to review the basic features of cDC biology and distinguish cDCs from related cell types brings to the fore the remarkable properties of this cell type while shedding some light on the seemingly inordinate complexity of the DC field.

Abstract
Sepsis was first described by the ancient Greek physicians over 2000 years ago. The pathophysiology of the disease, however, is still not fully understood and hence the mortality rate is still unacceptably high due to lack of specific therapies. In the last decade, great progress has been made by shifting the focus of research from systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Sepsis has been re-defined as infection-induced MODS in 2016. How infection leads to MODS is not clear, but what mediates MODS becomes the major topic in understanding the molecular mechanisms and developing specific therapies. Recently, the mechanism of infection-induced extensive immune cell death which releases a large quantity of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and their roles in the development of MODS as well as immunosuppression during sepsis have attracted much attention. Growing evidence supports the hypothesis that DAMPs, including high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and histones as well as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), may directly or indirectly contribute significantly to the development of MODS. Here, we provide an overview of the mechanisms and consequences of infection-induced extensive immune cell death during the development of sepsis. We also propose a pivotal pathway from a local infection to eventual sepsis and a potential combined therapeutic strategy for targeting sepsis.

Abstract
When cells undergo necrotic cell death in either physiological or pathophysiological settings in vivo, they release highly immunogenic intracellular molecules and organelles into the interstitium and thereby represent the strongest known trigger of the immune system. With our increasing understanding of necrosis as a regulated and genetically determined process (RN, regulated necrosis), necrosis and necroinflammation can be pharmacologically prevented. This review discusses our current knowledge about signaling pathways of necrotic cell death as the origin of necroinflammation. Multiple pathways of RN such as necroptosis, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis have been evolutionary conserved most likely because of their differences in immunogenicity. As the consequence of necrosis, however, all necrotic cells release damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) that have been extensively investigated over the last two decades. Analysis of necroinflammation allows characterizing specific signatures for each particular pathway of cell death. While all RN-pathways share the release of DAMPs in general, most of them actively regulate the immune system by the additional expression and/or maturation of either pro- or anti-inflammatory cytokines/chemokines. In addition, DAMPs have been demonstrated to modulate the process of regeneration. For the purpose of better understanding of necroinflammation, we introduce a novel classification of DAMPs in this review to help detect the relative contribution of each RN-pathway to certain physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

Abstract
Upon solid organ transplantation and during cancer immunotherapy, cellular stress responses result in the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). The various cellular stresses have been characterized in detail over the last decades, but a unifying classification based on clinically important aspects is lacking. Here, we provide an in-depth review of the most recent literature along with a unifying concept of the danger/injury model, suggest a classification of DAMPs, and review the recently elaborated mechanisms that result in the emission of such factors. We further point out the differences in DAMP responses including the release following a heat shock pattern, endoplasmic reticulum stress, DNA damage-mediated DAMP release, and discuss the diverse pathways of regulated necrosis in this respect. The understanding of various forms of DAMPs and the consequences of their different release patterns are prerequisite to associate serum markers of cellular stresses with clinical outcomes.

Abstract
AIM Toll-like receptors (TLRs) participate in several physiological and pathological processes of transplantation, including inflammation and allograft rejection, but the expression of TLRs and their ligands remains undetermined in small-for-size graft transplantation. METHODS A non-arterialized partial liver transplantation model was used. The expression of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA and protein, CD14 and Myeloid Differentiation-2 (MD-2) mRNA, as well as TLR2 and TLR4 exogenous ligands (endotoxin) and endogenous ligands [heat shock protein (HSP) 60 and 70] were assessed. The signaling pathways induced by TLR2 and TLR4 were also assessed. RESULTS In small-for-size liver graft, the expression of mRNA and protein of TLR2 and TLR4, CD14 and MD-2 mRNA, as well as endogenous ligands of TLR2 and TLR4 such as HSP60 and HSP70 was quickly and significantly increased after reperfusion, and reached a peak at 3 h after reperfusion. The levels of exogenous ligands (endotoxin) were increased and reached a peak at 6 h after reperfusion. The appearance of TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA was accompanied by increased HSP 60 and 70 mRNA within 24 h after reperfusion. In the small-for-size group, the peak levels of TLRs and their endogenous ligands appeared earlier than those in the full size group; the peak levels of TLRs and their endogenous and exogenous ligands were higher than those in the full size group. CONCLUSION TLR2 and TLR4, as well as their endogenous and exogenous ligands were activated in small-for-size liver graft transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is growing evidence of a role of the immune system in the pathophysiology of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, but the influence of I/R injury on innate immunity is still undetermined. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were used. I/R injury was induced by clamping both renal arteries for 45 min, and the rats were killed 1, 3, 5, and 7 days later. Activation of innate immunity was evaluated in terms of the expression of toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 or TLR4 mRNAs and protein, by the level of the TLR ligand (heat shock protein [HSP] 70), and maturation of dendritic cells by double-label immunohistochemistry of dendritic cells for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen. RESULTS I/R injury increased TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA and protein expression, and they were mainly observed on renal tubular cells. I/R injury also produced endogenous TLR ligand (HSP70) on renal tubular cells. I/R injury increased not only the numbers of dendritic cells but also the production of MHC class II antigen in dendritic cells, suggesting maturation of these cells. Activation of innate immunity was observed at day 1, peaked at days 3 to 5 after I/R injury, and thereafter gradually decreased. CONCLUSIONS I/R injury rapidly activates the innate immune response.

Abstract
The Injury Hypothesis, first published in 1994 and modified several times between 1996 and 2002, holds that the reactive oxygen species-mediated reperfusion injury to allografts initiates and induces the alloimmune response and contributes to alloatherogenesis. Recent experimental and clinical evidence in support of the concept is presented suggesting that (1) reactive oxygen species-mediated allograft injury activates the innate immune system of the donor and recipient; (2) injury-induced putative endogenous ligands of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) of host origin such as heat shock proteins interact with and activate TLR4-bearing dendritic cells that mature and induce the adaptive alloimmune response (acute rejection), and interact with and activate TLR4-bearing vascular cells contributing to the development of alloatherosclerosis (chronic rejection); and (3) TLR4-triggered signaling, involved in the establishment of a reperfusion injury, seems to use myeloid differentiation marker 88-independent, Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain containing adaptor inducing interferon-beta-dependent pathways that are associated with the maturation of dendritic cells and induction of interferon-inducible genes.
