Gao K, Xie Y, Xu F, Peng Q, Fu L, Wang G, Qiu J. Silk fibroin promotes H3K9me3 expression and chromatin reorganization to regulate endothelial cell proliferation. APL Bioeng 2024; 8:026115. [PMID: 38827498 PMCID: PMC11143938 DOI: 10.1063/5.0203858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 06/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF), which is extensively utilized in tissue engineering and vascular grafts for enhancing vascular regeneration, has not been thoroughly investigated for its epigenetic effects on endothelial cells (EC). This study employed RNA sequencing analysis to evaluate the activation of histone modification regulatory genes in EC treated with SF. Subsequent investigations revealed elevated H3K9me3 levels in SF-treated EC, as evidenced by immunofluorescence and western blot analysis. The study utilized H2B-eGFP endothelial cells to demonstrate that SF treatment results in the accumulation of H2B-marked chromatin in the nuclear inner cavities of EC. Inhibition of H3K9me3 levels by a histone deacetylase inhibitor TSA decreased cell proliferation. Furthermore, the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway using chromium picolinate decreased the proliferative activity and H3K9me3 level in SF-treated EC. SF also appeared to enhance cell growth and proliferation by modulating the H3K9me3 level and reorganizing chromatin, particularly after oxidative stress induced by H2O2 treatment. In summary, these findings indicate that SF promotes EC proliferation by increasing the H3K9me3 level even under stress conditions.

Song XQ, Shao ZM. Identification of immune-related prognostic biomarkers in triple-negative breast cancer. Transl Cancer Res 2024; 13:1707-1720. [PMID: 38737702 PMCID: PMC11082668 DOI: 10.21037/tcr-23-1554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024]
Abstract
Background Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a type of breast cancer, lacks immune-related markers that can be used for prognosis or prediction. Therefore, we created a predictive framework for TNBC using a risk assessment. Methods Our previous study group consisted of 360 individuals who were diagnosed with TNBC through pathology using RNA sequencing and had clinical data from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (FUSCC). A risk scoring model was constructed using the Cox regression method with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). A multivariate Cox regression analysis was utilized to develop the prediction model, which was then assessed using the consistency index and calibration plots. The validation cohort of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) TNBC confirmed the strength of the signatures' predictive value. Results The prognostic risk score model included 12 genes: TDO2, CHIT1, CARML2, HLA-C, ADIRF, C19orf33, CA8, AHNAK2, RHOV, OPLAH, THEM6, and NEBL. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves for survivability values at 1, 3, and 5 years in the FUSCC TNBC cohort demonstrated area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.78, 0.83, and 0.75, respectively. These results indicated a high level of accuracy in predicting outcomes, which was further confirmed through validation using TCGA database. The patients in the high-risk group showed worse prognoses and lower levels of immune cell infiltration, specifically CD8+ T cells, than those in the low-risk group. Furthermore, the low-risk group exhibited a significant upregulation of genes that encode immune checkpoints, including CD274 and CTLA4, suggesting that immunotherapy may yield enhanced efficacy within this particular group. Conclusions In conclusion, the prognostic signature consisting of 12 genes can assist in the choice of immunotherapy for TNBC.

Abstract
PURPOSE Persistent human papillomavirus infection (PHPVI) causes cutaneous, anogenital, and mucosal warts. Cutaneous warts include common warts, Treeman syndrome, and epidermodysplasia verruciformis, among others. Although more reports of monogenic predisposition to PHPVI have been published with the development of genomic technologies, genetic testing is rarely incorporated into clinical assessments. To encourage broader molecular testing, we compiled a list of the various monogenic etiologies of PHPVI. METHODS We conducted a systematic literature review to determine the genetic, immunological, and clinical characteristics of patients with PHPVI. RESULTS The inclusion criteria were met by 261 of 40,687 articles. In 842 patients, 83 PHPVI-associated genes were identified, including 42, 6, and 35 genes with strong, moderate, and weak evidence for causality, respectively. Autosomal recessive inheritance predominated (69%). PHPVI onset age was 10.8 ± 8.6 years, with an interquartile range of 5 to 14 years. GATA2,IL2RG,DOCK8, CXCR4, TMC6, TMC8, and CIB1 are the most frequently reported PHPVI-associated genes with strong causality. Most genes (74 out of 83) belong to a catalog of 485 inborn errors of immunity-related genes, and 40 genes (54%) are represented in the nonsyndromic and syndromic combined immunodeficiency categories. CONCLUSION PHPVI has at least 83 monogenic etiologies and a genetic diagnosis is essential for effective management.

Abstract
Patients with inherited CARMIL2 or CD28 deficiency have defective T cell CD28 signaling, but their immunological and clinical phenotypes remain largely unknown. We show that only one of three CARMIL2 isoforms is produced and functional across leukocyte subsets. Tested mutant CARMIL2 alleles from 89 patients and 52 families impair canonical NF-κB but not AP-1 and NFAT activation in T cells stimulated via CD28. Like CD28-deficient patients, CARMIL2-deficient patients display recalcitrant warts and low blood counts of CD4+ and CD8+ memory T cells and CD4+ TREGs. Unlike CD28-deficient patients, they have low counts of NK cells and memory B cells, and their antibody responses are weak. CARMIL2 deficiency is fully penetrant by the age of 10 yr and is characterized by numerous infections, EBV+ smooth muscle tumors, and mucocutaneous inflammation, including inflammatory bowel disease. Patients with somatic reversions of a mutant allele in CD4+ T cells have milder phenotypes. Our study suggests that CARMIL2 governs immunological pathways beyond CD28.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biallelic loss-of-function mutations in CARMIL2 cause combined immunodeficiency associated with dermatitis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and EBV-related smooth muscle tumors. Clinical and immunological characterizations of the disease with long-term follow-up and treatment options have not been previously reported in large cohorts. We sought to determine the clinical and immunological features of CARMIL2 deficiency and long-term efficacy of treatment in controlling different disease manifestations. METHODS The presenting phenotypes, long-term outcomes, and treatment responses were evaluated prospectively in 15 CARMIL2-deficient patients, including 13 novel cases. Lymphocyte subpopulations, protein expression, regulatory T (Treg), and circulating T follicular helper (cTFH ) cells were analyzed. Three-dimensional (3D) migration assay was performed to determine T-cell shape. RESULTS Mean age at disease onset was 38 ± 23 months. Main clinical features were skin manifestations (n = 14, 93%), failure to thrive (n = 10, 67%), recurrent infections (n = 10, 67%), allergic symptoms (n = 8, 53%), chronic diarrhea (n = 4, 27%), and EBV-related leiomyoma (n = 2, 13%). Skin manifestations ranged from atopic and seborrheic dermatitis to psoriasiform rash. Patients had reduced proportions of memory CD4+ T cells, Treg, and cTFH cells. Memory B and NK cells were also decreased. CARMIL2-deficient T cells exhibited reduced T-cell proliferation and cytokine production following CD28 co-stimulation and normal morphology when migrating in a high-density 3D collagen gel matrix. IBD was the most severe clinical manifestation, leading to growth retardation, requiring multiple interventional treatments. All patients were alive with a median follow-up of 10.8 years (range: 3-17 years). CONCLUSION This cohort provides clinical and immunological features and long-term follow-up of different manifestations of CARMIL2 deficiency.

Zhu Y, Ye L, Huang H, Xu X, Liu Y, Wang J, Jin Y. Case report: Primary immunodeficiency due to a novel mutation in CARMIL2 and its response to combined immunomodulatory therapy. Front Pediatr 2022; 10:1042302. [PMID: 36727012 PMCID: PMC9884805 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2022.1042302] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 2 (CARMIL2) is necessary for invadopodia formation, cell polarity, lamellipodial assembly, membrane ruffling, acropinocytosis, and collective cell migration. CARMIL2 deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by dysfunction in naïve T-cell activation, proliferation, differentiation, and effector function and insufficient responses in T-cell memory. In this paper, we report a 9-year-old female patient with a novel pathogenic variant in CARMIL2 (c.2063C > G:p.Thr688Arg) who presented with various symptoms of primary immunodeficiencies including recurrent upper and lower respiratory infections, perioral and perineum papules, reddish impetiginized atopic dermatitis, oral ulcer, painful urination and vaginitis, otitis media, and failure to thrive. A missense mutation leading to insufficient CARMIL2 protein expression, reduced absolute T-cell and natural killer cell (NK cell) counts, and marked skewing to the naïve T-cell form was identified and indicated defective maturation of T cells and B cells. Following 1 year of multitargeted treatment with corticosteroids, hydroxychloroquine, mycophenolate mofetil, and thymosin, the patient presented with significant regression in rashes. CD4+ T-cell, CD8+ T-cell, and NK cell counts were significantly improved.

Abstract
Simple Summary Epstein–Barr Virus (EBV) is a common virus that is readily controlled by a healthy immune system and rarely causes serious problems in infected people. However, patients with certain genetic defects of their immune system might have difficulties controlling EBV and often develop severe and life-threatening conditions, such as severe inflammation and malignancies. In this review, we provide a summary of inherited immune diseases that lead to a high susceptibility to EBV infection and discuss how this infection is associated with cancer development. Abstract Epstein–Barr Virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous virus affecting more than 90% of the world’s population. Upon infection, it establishes latency in B cells. It is a rather benign virus for immune-competent individuals, in whom infections usually go unnoticed. Nevertheless, EBV has been extensively associated with tumorigenesis. Patients suffering from certain inborn errors of immunity are at high risk of developing malignancies, while infection in the majority of immune-competent individuals does not seem to lead to immune dysregulation. Herein, we discuss how inborn mutations in TNFRSF9, CD27, CD70, CORO1A, CTPS1, ITK, MAGT1, RASGRP1, STK4, CARMIL2, SH2D1A, and XIAP affect the development, differentiation, and function of key factors involved in the immunity against EBV, leading to increased susceptibility to lymphoproliferative disease and lymphoma.
