Abstract
On the basis of the mechanisms of action and characteristics of immune effects, immunity is commonly categorized into innate and adaptive immunity. Adaptive immunity is associated with the response to non-self-entities and is characterized by high specificity and memory properties. In contrast, innate immunity has traditionally been considered devoid of memory characteristics. However, an increasing number of studies have sought to challenge this conventional immunological dogma and shown that innate immune cells exhibit a more robust and rapid response to secondary stimulation, thus providing evidence of the immunological memory in innate immunity. Macrophages, which are among the most important innate immune cells, can also acquire memory phenotype that facilitates the mediation of recall responses. Macrophage memory is a relatively new concept that is revolutionizing our understanding of macrophage biology and immunological memory and could lead to a new class of vaccines and immunotherapies. In this review, we describe the characteristics and mechanisms of macrophage memory, as well as its essential roles in various diseases.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment is overwhelmingly dictated by macrophages, intimately affiliated with tumors, exercising pivotal roles in multiple processes, including angiogenesis, extracellular matrix reconfiguration, cellular proliferation, metastasis, and immunosuppression. They further exhibit resilience to chemotherapy and immunotherapy via meticulous checkpoint blockades. When appropriately stimulated, macrophages can morph into a potent bidirectional component of the immune system, engulfing malignant cells and annihilating them with cytotoxic substances, thus rendering them intriguing candidates for therapeutic targets. As myelomonocytic cells relentlessly amass within tumor tissues, macrophages rise as prime contenders for cell therapy upon the development of chimeric antigen receptor effector cells. Given the significant incidence of macrophage infiltration correlated with an unfavorable prognosis and heightened resistance to chemotherapy in solid tumors, we delve into the intricate role of macrophages in cancer propagation and their promising potential in confronting four formidable cancer variants-namely, melanoma, colon, glioma, and breast cancers.

Tumor Necrosis Factor α-Dependent Lung Inflammation Promotes the Progression of Lung Adenocarcinoma Originating From Alveolar Type II Cells by Upregulating MIF-CD74. J Transl Med 2023; 103:100034. [PMID: 36925198 DOI: 10.1016/j.labinv.2022.100034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 08/28/2022] [Accepted: 10/25/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma is the most common type of lung cancer. We recently reported that inflammation-driven lung adenocarcinoma (IDLA) originates from alveolar type (AT)-II cells, which depend on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II to promote the expansion of regulatory T cells. The MHC class II-associated invariant chain (CD74) binds to the macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), which is associated with promoting tumor growth and invasion. However, the role of MIF-CD74 in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma and the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We aimed to explore the role of MIF-CD74 in the progression of lung adenocarcinoma and elucidate the mechanisms by which tumor necrosis (TNF)-α-mediated inflammation regulates CD74 and MIF expression in IDLA. In human lung adenocarcinoma, CD74 was upregulated on the surface of tumor cells originating from AT-II cells, which correlated positively with lymph node metastasis, tumor origin/nodal involvement/metastasis stage, and TNF-α expression. MIF interaction with CD74 promoted the proliferation and migration of A549 and H1299 cells in vitro. Using a urethane-induced IDLA mouse model, we observed that CD74 was upregulated in tumor cells and macrophages. MIF expression was upregulated in macrophages in IDLA. Blocking TNF-α-dependent inflammation downregulated CD74 expression in tumor cells and CD74 and MIF expression in macrophages in IDLA. Conditioned medium from A549 cells or activated mouse AT-II cells upregulated MIF in macrophages by secreting TNF-α. TNF-α-dependent lung inflammation contributes to the progression of lung adenocarcinoma by upregulating CD74 and MIF expression, and AT-II cells upregulate MIF expression in macrophages by secreting TNF-α. This study provides novel insights into the function of CD74 in the progression of IDLA.

Abstract
Objective To detect expression and phosphorylation level of macrophage migration inhibitor (MIF) and extracellular-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) in hepatitis B-induced liver cirrhosis (HBILC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with a background of HBILC and analyze the correlation of MIF and ERK1/2 with HBILC and HCC. Methods Twenty cases of normal liver tissues were collected as a control group, and 48 specimens of HBILC tissues and 48 specimens of HCC tissues were collected as the experimental group, which were assigned as the HBILC group and HCC group, respectively. All tissue specimens were processed into tissue chips. The expressions of MIF, ERK1/2, and their phosphorylated proteins were detected via immunohistochemistry, and MIF and ERK1/2 nucleic acid expressions were detected by in situ hybridization. The results were statistically analyzed using the chi-square test. Results Proteins and nucleic acids of MIF and ERK1/2 presented low expression in the control group and high expression in the HBILC group and HCC group. MIF expression in the three groups was 25.0%, 75.0%, and 79.17%, respectively, while that of the nucleic acids was 25.0%, 70.83%, and 68.75%, respectively. Expression of ERK1/2 in the three groups was 40.0%, 60.42%, and 81.25%, respectively, and that of nucleic acids was 40.0%, 79.17%, and 77.08%. Expression of pERK1/2 was low in the control and HBILC group and high in the HCC group. Expression of pERK1/2 in the three groups was 20%, 45.83%, and 75%, respectively. Expression of pERK1/2 in the HCC group was significantly different from that in the HBILC and control group (P<0.05), but the difference between the HBILC group and control group was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Occurrence and development of HBILC and HCC are not only related to the high expression of MIF but also closely related to the activation of the ERK1/2 signaling pathway.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph192214919.

Abstract
Cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower and radish contain isothiocyanates exhibiting chemoprotective effects in vitro and in vivo. This research aimed to assess the impact of cauliflower (CIE) and radish (RIE) isothiocyanate extracts on the metabolic activity, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and LDH production of selected human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells (HCT116 and HT-29 for early and late colon cancer development, respectively). Non-cancerous colon cells (CCD-33Co) were used as a cytotoxicity control. The CIE samples displayed the highest allyl isothiocyanate (AITC: 12.55 µg/g) contents, whereas RIE was the most abundant in benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC: 15.35 µg/g). Both extracts effectively inhibited HCT116 and HT-29 metabolic activity, but the CIE impact was higher than that of RIE on HCT116 (IC50: 0.56 mg/mL). Assays using the half-inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of all treatments, including AITC and BITC, displayed increased (p < 0.05) LDH (absorbance: 0.25-0.40 nm) and ROS release (1190-1697 relative fluorescence units) in both cell lines. BITC showed the highest in silico binding affinity with all the tested colorectal cancer molecular markers (NF-kB, β-catenin, and NRF2-NFE2). The theoretical evaluation of AITC and BITC bioavailability showed high values for both compounds. The results indicate that CIE and RIE extracts display chemopreventive effects in vitro, but additional experiments are needed to validate their effects.

Abstract
Objectives Immune microenvironment was closely related to the occurrence and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). The objective of the current research was to develop and verify a Machine learning survival predictive system for CRC based on immune gene expression data and machine learning algorithms. Methods The current study performed differentially expressed analyses between normal tissues and tumor tissues. Univariate Cox regression was used to screen prognostic markers for CRC. Prognostic immune genes and transcription factors were used to construct an immune-related regulatory network. Three machine learning algorithms were used to create an Machine learning survival predictive system for CRC. Concordance indexes, calibration curves, and Brier scores were used to evaluate the performance of prognostic model. Results Twenty immune genes (BCL2L12, FKBP10, XKRX, WFS1, TESC, CCR7, SPACA3, LY6G6C, L1CAM, OSM, EXTL1, LY6D, FCRL5, MYEOV, FOXD1, REG3G, HAPLN1, MAOB, TNFSF11, and AMIGO3) were recognized as independent risk factors for CRC. A prognostic nomogram was developed based on the previous immune genes. Concordance indexes were 0.852, 0.778, and 0.818 for 1-, 3- and 5-year survival. This prognostic model could discriminate high risk patients with poor prognosis from low risk patients with favorable prognosis. Conclusions The current study identified twenty prognostic immune genes for CRC patients and constructed an immune-related regulatory network. Based on three machine learning algorithms, the current research provided three individual mortality predictive curves. The Machine learning survival predictive system was available at: https://zhangzhiqiao8.shinyapps.io/Artificial_Intelligence_Survival_Prediction_for_CRC_B1005_1/, which was valuable for individualized treatment decision before surgery.

Abstract
The role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) and its acquisition of resistance to treatment become the research hotspots. As an important component of TME, the tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) regulate multiple critical oncogenic processes, namely, occurrence, proliferation, metastasis, and drug resistance in CRC. In this review, we have discussed the functional and therapeutic significance of TAMs in CRC. M1 macrophages act as the tumor suppressor while M2 macrophages promote CRC. The polarization of TAMs is mainly regulated by the pathways such as NFKB1 pathways, STAT3 pathways, WNT5A pathways, and PI3K pathways in CRC. Furthermore, the M2 polarization of TAMs is not only controllable but also reversible. Finally, we provide insights into the TAMs-targeted therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The cumulative impact of chronic inflammation in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases predisposes to the development of inflammatory bowel disease-associated colorectal cancer [IBD-CRC]. Inflammation can induce mutagenesis, and the relapsing-remitting nature of this inflammation, together with epithelial regeneration, may exert selective pressure accelerating carcinogenesis. The molecular pathogenesis of IBD-CRC, termed the 'inflammation-dysplasia-carcinoma' sequence, is well described. However, the immunopathogenesis of IBD-CRC is less well understood. The impact of novel immunosuppressive therapies, which aim to achieve deep remission, is mostly unknown. Therefore, this timely review summarizes the clinical context of IBD-CRC, outlines the molecular and immunological basis of disease pathogenesis, and considers the impact of novel biological therapies.

Abstract
Increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients has been attributed to long-standing chronic inflammation, with the contribution of genetic alterations and environmental factors such as the microbiota. Moreover, accumulating data indicate that IBD-associated CRC (IBD-CRC) may initiate and develop through a pathway of tumorigenesis distinct from that of sporadic CRC. This mini-review summarizes the current knowledge of IBD-CRC, focusing on the main mechanisms underlying its pathogenesis, and on the important role of immunomodulators and biologics used to treat IBD patients in interfering with the inflammatory process involved in carcinogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, it is well known that many hemogram parameters were related to the prognosis of a variety of cancers. Among them, monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) have attracted more and more attention. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of MLR, NLR, PLR, especially MLR, in patients with bladder cancer (BC) treated with radical cystectomy (RC). METHODS Between January 2009 and October 2018, 203 BC patients who underwent RC participated in the survey, and various clinical and hematological parameters were recorded. The optimal cutoff of MLR, NLR and PLR were determined by X-tile software, and Cox regression analysis was performed to investigated the effect of MLR, NLR and PLR on the overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS The optimal cutoff values of MLR, NLR and PLR were 0.54, 4.10 and 164.63, respectively. Patients with high MLR (>0.54) predicted shorter OS [hazard ratio (HR): 2.30; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.36-3.89; P=0.002] and DFS (HR: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.21-3.75; P=0.009) compared with patients with low MLR (≤0.54). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that only MLR was an independent risk factor for OS and DFS in MLR, NLR and PLR. In addition, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that at most time points, the area under the curve (AUC) of MLR was greater than that of NLR and PLR used to predict OS and DFS. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that MLR can be independently used as a poor prognostic factor for OS and DFS in BC patients with RC. The prognosis of BC patients after RC can be predicted by measuring the level of MLR.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS The expression levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines, tumor tissues, and plasma were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and immunohistochemistry. Plasma Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen was determined by immunoenzymatic techniques. RESULTS Both the messenger RNA and protein expression levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor were upregulated in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines and nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor in plasma was significantly elevated in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma compared to Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen-negative and Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen-positive healthy donors. The combination of macrophage migration inhibitory factor and Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen was better for diagnosing nasopharyngeal carcinoma (area under receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.925, 95% CI: 0.898-0.951) than macrophage migration inhibitory factor (area under receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.778, 95% CI: 0.732-0.824) and Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen. Combining macrophage migration inhibitory factor and Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen had higher specificity (82.40% vs 69.96%) and higher positive predictive value (79.17% vs 67.44%) without an obvious reduction in sensitivity (95.25%) compared to Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen alone. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor was highly expressed in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell lines, whereas it was not associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection. The level of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in plasma was not related to the titer of Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen. CONCLUSION The combination of macrophage migration inhibitory factor and Epstein-Barr virus viral capsid antigen increases the specificity and positive predictive value of detecting nasopharyngeal carcinoma and improves the diagnostic accuracy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in high-risk individuals.

Abstract
Human macrophage migration inhibition factor (MIF) is a protein with cytokine and chemokine properties that regulates a diverse range of physiological functions related to innate immunity and inflammation. Most research has focused on the role of MIF in different inflammatory diseases. D-dopachrome tautomerase (DDT), a different molecule with structural similarities to MIF, which shares receptors and biological functions, has recently been reported, but little is known about its roles and mechanisms. In this review, we sought to understand the similarities and differences between these molecules by summarizing what is known about their different structures, receptors and mechanisms regulating their expression and biological activities with an emphasis on immunological aspects.

The effect of snakehead fish extract supplementation to first-line eradication regimen on macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) expression in rats induced by Helicobacter pylori infection. J Adv Vet Anim Res 2020; 7:209-217. [PMID: 32607351 PMCID: PMC7320804 DOI: 10.5455/javar.2020.g411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2020] [Revised: 04/16/2020] [Accepted: 04/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: This work was organized to assess macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) expression in snakehead fish extract supplementation to first-line eradication regimen in rats induced by Helicobacter pylori infection. Materials and methods: A total of 28 manly rats were haphazardly isolated equally into four groups. Group-1 was the control negative, and groups-2–4 were H. pylori-infected groups. Group-2 was the control positive. Groups-3 and 4 were treated with first-line eradication regimen and first-line eradication regimen supplemented with snakehead fish extract, respectively. Immunoreactive scores (IRS) of MIF expression and eradication testing procedure were carried out. The comparison and difference between groups were analyzed by Kruskal–Wallis and post hoc Mann–Whitney U-test. A value of p < 0.05 was considered to be a limit of significance. Results: The average IRS of MIF expression in group-2 was the highest among other groups (p < 0.05). Group-4 (supplemented by snakehead fish extract) had a lower median value IRS of MIF expression compared to group-3 [1.0 (0.0–2.0) vs. 3.5 (2.0–6.0), p = 0.004]. Conclusion: MIF expression was higher in rats induced by H. pylori infection. Snakehead fish extract supplementation to first-line eradication regimen significantly reduces more MIF expression compared to a single administration of first-line eradication regimen in rats induced by H. pylori infection.
