Abstract
The interplay between the immune system and cancer underscores the central role of immunotherapy in cancer treatment. In this context, the innate immune system plays a critical role in preventing tumor invasion. Myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) is crucial for innate immunity, and activation of MyD88 promotes the production of inflammatory cytokines and induces infiltration, polarization, and immune escape of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment. Additionally, abnormal MyD88 signaling induces tumor cell proliferation and metastasis, which are closely associated with poor prognosis. Therefore, MyD88 could serve as a novel tumor biomarker and is a promising target for cancer therapy. Current strategies targeting MyD88 including inhibition of signaling pathways and protein multimerization, have made substantial progress, especially in inflammatory diseases and chronic inflammation-induced cancers. However, the specific role of MyD88 in regulating tumor immunity and tumorigenic mechanisms remains unclear. Therefore, this review describes the involvement of MyD88 in tumor immune escape and disease therapy. In addition, classical and non-classical MyD88 inhibitors were collated to provide insights into potential cancer treatment strategies. Despite several challenges and complexities, targeting MyD88 is a promising avenue for improving cancer treatment and has the potential to revolutionize patient outcomes.

Treatment of a MyD88 inhibitor alleviates rejection and inflammation in xenotransplantation by inhibiting dendritic cells activation and trained immunity in macrophages. Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 130:111664. [PMID: 38377850 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.111664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute vascular rejection (AVR) and systemic inflammation in xenograft recipients (SIXR) negatively impact the xenografts survival, and novel immunosuppressants are required to improve survival outcomes. We previously reported that TJ-M2010-5, a myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) inhibitor, exerts excellent anti-rejection effects in allogeneic transplantation. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of TJ-M2010-5 in preventing AVR and SIXR and to investigate whether combined treatment of TJ-M2010-5 with anti-CD154 antibody (MR1) could prolong xenograft survival furthermore. METHODS A model involving heart transplantation from Sprague-Dawley rats to BALB/c mice was established in vivo, and the xenografts developed typical AVR. Bone marrow-derived dendritic cells and macrophages were cultured to study the underlying mechanisms induced by rat cardiomyocyte lysate stimulation in vitro. RESULTS TJ-M2010-5 monotherapy prolonged xenograft survival, although combination treatment with MR1 further enhanced the anti-AVR and anti-SIXR effects with about 21 days graft survival, compared to monotherapy. TJ-M2010-5 reduced dendritic cell and macrophage activation induced by xenotransplantation, downregulated CD80/CD86 expression, suppressed B-cell activation and anti-donor antibody generation, reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine production and tissue factor expression, and attenuated epigenetic modifications underlying interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α production in macrophages by inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B nuclear translocation. CONCLUSIONS TJ-M2010-5 attenuated AVR and SIXR and contributed to xenograft survival by inhibiting dendritic cell and macrophage activation. A dual-system inhibition strategy combining TJ-M2010-5 with anti-CD154 antibody achieved better results in xenotransplantation.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) elicits an immune-inflammatory response that may result in hepatocyte necrosis and apoptosis, ultimately culminating in postoperative hepatic dysfunction and hepatic failure. The precise mechanisms governing the pathophysiology of HIRI remain incompletely understood, necessitating further investigation into key molecules and pathways implicated in disease progression to guide drug discovery and potential therapeutic interventions. Gene microarray data was downloaded from the GEO expression profile database. Integrated bioinformatic analyses were performed to identify HIRI signature genes, which were subsequently validated for expression levels and diagnostic efficacy. Finally, the gene expression was verified in an experimental HIRI model and the effect of anti-IL17A antibody intervention in three time points (including pre-ischemic, post-ischemic, and at 1 h of reperfusion) on HIRI and the expression of these genes was investigated. Bioinformatic analyses of the screened characterized genes revealed that inflammation, immune response, and cell death modulation were significantly associated with HIRI pathophysiology. CCL2, BTG2, GADD45A, FOS, CXCL10, TNFRSF12A, and IL-17 pathway were identified as key components involved in the HIRI. Serum and liver IL-17A expression were significantly upregulated during the initial phase of HIRI. Pretreatment with anti-IL-17A antibody effectively alleviated the damage of liver tissue, suppressed inflammatory factors, and serum transaminase levels, and downregulated the mRNA expression of CCL2, GADD45A, FOS, CXCL10, and TNFRSF12A. Injection of anti-IL17A antibody after ischemia and at 1 h of reperfusion failed to demonstrate anti-inflammatory and attenuating HIRI benefits relative to earlier intervention. Our study reveals that the IL-17 pathway and related genes may be involved in the proinflammatory mechanism of HIRI, which may provide a new perspective and theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of HIRI.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of specific knockout of SHP2 in mononuclear macrophages on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury and its molecular mechanism. The structural, functional, and pathological changes in the mouse kidney were detected by ultrasound testing. The relative fluorescence intensity of α-SMA, Col1, Col3, and Vim was measured by immunofluorescence staining, and ELISA was performed to detect the concentrations of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Crea), and uric acid (UA). The relative protein expressions of relevant proteins in the mouse kidney tissue were detected by western blotting. Specific knockout of SHP2 could improve both renal function and structure, reduce the relative fluorescence intensity of α-SMA, Col1, Col3 and Vim, lower the concentrations of BUN, Crea, and UA and the expressions of TNF-α, IFNγ, p-NFκB, and p-MyD88, and increase the expressions of p-MerTK, p-FAK, p-PI3K, and p-IκB. The above results illustrate that specific knockdown of macrophage SHP2 promotes macrophage M2 polarization and alleviates renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. The above results illustrate that specific knockdown of macrophage SHP2 promotes macrophage M2 polarization and attenuatesll renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. Specific knockout of macrophage SHP2 promotes macrophage M2 polarization and alleviates renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) remains a common issue and with the increasing incidence of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which are more sensitive to IRI, it is crucial to explore the possible strategy to alleviate the steatotic liver IRI. Several modes of cell death are involved in hepatocytes and immune cells during hepatic IRI, and the effects of different cell death inhibitors including apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis in steatotic liver IRI have not been investigated. We established 70% IRI model on steatotic liver in mice. Apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis and ferroptosis inhibitors were used to evaluate their effects on liver injury, inflammatory response, and immune cell infiltration. Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemical results demonstrated that there were apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis in the progression of IRI in steatotic liver. All four types of cell death inhibitors showed protective effects, but ferroptosis inhibitor Fer-1 and pyroptosis inhibitor VX765 exerted better protective effects compared the apoptosis inhibitor Z-VAD and necroptosis inhibitor Nec-1. Further, we found that pyroptosis occurred mainly in macrophages and ferroptosis occured primarily in hepatocytes during steatotic liver IRI. Ferroptosis in heaptocytes and pyroptosis in macrophages are two major cell death types involved in steatotic liver IRI and inhibiting these cell death exerted good protective effects.

Abstract
Macrophages play a critical role in innate immunity, with approximately 90% of the total macrophage population in the human body residing in the liver. This population encompasses both resident and infiltrating macrophages. Recent studies highlight the pivotal role of liver macrophages in various aspects such as liver inflammation, regeneration, and immune regulation. A novel pro-inflammatory programmed cell death, pyroptosis, initially identified in macrophages, has garnered substantial attention since its discovery. Studies investigating pyroptosis and inflammation progression have particularly centered around macrophages. In liver diseases, pyroptosis plays an important role in driving the inflammatory response, facilitating the fibrotic process, and promoting tumor progression. Notably, the role of macrophage pyroptosis cannot be understated. This review primarily focuses on the role of macrophage pyroptosis in liver diseases. Additionally, it underscores the therapeutic potential inherent in targeting macrophage pyroptosis.

Circulating Exosomes Mediate Neurodegeneration Following Hepatic Ischemia-reperfusion Through Inducing Microglial Pyroptosis in the Developing Hippocampus. Transplantation 2023; 107:2364-2376. [PMID: 37291725 PMCID: PMC10593148 DOI: 10.1097/tp.0000000000004664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Revised: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor neurodevelopmental outcomes after pediatric liver transplantation seriously affect the long-term quality of life of recipients, in whom hepatic ischemia reperfusion (HIR) is considered to play a pivotal role. However, the link between HIR and brain injury remains unclear. Because circulating exosomes are considered as the key mediators of information transmission over long distances, we aimed to assess the role of circulating exosomes in HIR-induced hippocampal injury in young rats. METHODS We administered exosomes extracted from the sera of HIR model rats to normal young rats via the tail vein. Western blotting, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, histological examination, and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction were used to evaluate the role of exosomes in neuronal injury and activation of microglial pyroptosis in the developing hippocampus. Primary microglial cells were cocultured with exosomes to further assess the effect of exosomes on microglia. To further explore the potential mechanism, GW4869 or MCC950 was used to block exosome biogenesis or nod-like receptor family protein 3, respectively. RESULTS Serum-derived exosomes played a crucial role in linking HIR with neuronal degeneration in the developing hippocampus. Microglia were found to be the target cells of ischemia-reperfusion derived exosomes (I/R-exosomes). I/R-exosomes were taken up by microglia and promoted the occurrence of microglial pyroptosis in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, the exosome-induced neuronal injury was alleviated by suppressing the occurrence of pyroptosis in the developing hippocampus. CONCLUSIONS Microglial pyroptosis induced by circulating exosomes plays a vital role in developing hippocampal neuron injury during HIR in young rats.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) is the major complication of liver surgery and liver transplantation, that may increase the postoperative morbidity, mortality, tumor progression, and metastasis. The underlying mechanisms have been extensively investigated in recent years. Among these, oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, immunoreactions, and cell death are the most studied. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are defined as the RNAs that do not encode proteins, but can regulate gene expressions. In recent years, ncRNAs have emerged as research hotspots for various diseases. During the progression of HIRI, ncRNAs are differentially expressed, while these dysregulations of ncRNAs, in turn, have been verified to be related to the above pathological processes involved in HIRI. ncRNAs mainly contain microRNAs, long ncRNAs, and circular RNAs, some of which have been reported as biomarkers for early diagnosis or assessment of liver damage severity, and as therapeutic targets to attenuate HIRI. Here, we briefly summarize the common pathophysiology of HIRI, describe the current knowledge of ncRNAs involved in HIRI in animal and human studies, and discuss the potential of ncRNA-targeted therapeutic strategies. Given the scarcity of clinical trials, there is still a long way to go from pre-clinical to clinical application, and further studies are needed to uncover their potential as therapeutic targets.
