Abstract
Food allergy is a global food safety concern, with an increasing prevalence in recent decades. However, the immunological and cellular mechanisms involved in allergic reactions remain incompletely understood, which impedes the development of effective prevention and treatment strategies. Current evidence supports those epigenetic modifications regulate the activation of immune cells, and their dysregulation can contribute to the development of food allergies. Patients with food allergy show epigenetic alterations that lead to the onset, duration and recovery of allergic disease. Moreover, many preclinical studies have shown that certain dietary components exert nutriepigenetic effects in changing the course of food allergies. In this review, we provide an up-to-date overview of DNA methylation, noncoding RNA and histone modification, with a focus on their connections to food allergies. Following this, we discuss the epigenetic mechanisms that regulate the activation and differentiation of innate and adapted immune cell in the context of food allergies. Subsequently, this study specifically focuses on the multidimensional epigenetic effects of dietary components in modulating the immune response, which holds promise for preventing food allergies in the future.

Tumor-derived lncRNAs: Behind-the-scenes mediators that modulate the immune system and play a role in cancer pathogenesis. Pathol Res Pract 2024; 254:155123. [PMID: 38277740 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2024.155123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 01/07/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
Having been involved in complex cellular regulatory networks and cell-to-cell communications, non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have become functional carriers that transmit information between cells and tissues, modulate tumor microenvironments, encourage angiogenesis and invasion, and make tumor cells more resistant to drugs. Immune cells' exosomal lncRNAs may be introduced into tumor cells to influence the tumor's course and the treatment's effectiveness. Research has focused on determining if non-coding RNAs affect many target genes to mediate regulating recipient cells. The tumor microenvironment's immune and cancer cells are influenced by lncRNAs, which may impact a treatment's efficacy. The lncRNA-mediated interaction between cancer cells and immune cells invading the tumor microenvironment has been the subject of numerous recent studies. On the other hand, tumor-derived lncRNAs' control over the immune system has not gotten much attention and is still a relatively new area of study. Tumor-derived lncRNAs are recognized to contribute to tumor immunity, while the exact mechanism is unclear.

Evaluation Using a Novel Adjuvant-Free Mouse Model of Systemic Anaphylaxis. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:17247. [PMID: 38139075 PMCID: PMC10743909 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242417247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Wheat is a prominent allergenic food that can trigger life-threatening anaphylaxis. Presently, it remains unclear whether wheat glutenin (WG) extract possesses inherent sensitization potential independently, without the use of adjuvants, and whether it can sensitize mice to the extent of inducing life-threatening systemic anaphylaxis. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that repeated skin exposures to WG extract without adjuvant will sensitize mice with the resultant anaphylactic reaction upon systemic WG challenge. Balb/c mice were bred and maintained on a strict plant protein-free diet and were repeatedly exposed to a WG extract or vehicle once a week for 9 weeks. WG-specific (s)IgE and total (t)IgE levels were quantified. Mice were challenged with WG extract to induce anaphylactic reactions as measured by hypothermic shock response (HSR) and mucosal mast cell degranulation response (MMCR). We also conducted proteomic analysis of 120 spleen immune markers. These skin-sensitized mice exhibited exposure-dependent IgE responses and near-fatal anaphylaxis upon challenge. Proteomic analysis identified seven dramatically elevated immune biomarkers in anaphylactic mice. These data reveal that WG is intrinsically allergenic, and that chronic skin exposure to WG extract can prime the mice for potentially fatal anaphylaxis.

Abstract
The gut is the body's largest immune organ, and the intestinal barrier prevents harmful substances such as bacteria and toxins from passing through the gastrointestinal mucosa. Intestinal barrier dysfunction is closely associated with various diseases. However, there are currently no FDA-approved therapies targeting the intestinal epithelial barriers. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), a class of RNA transcripts with a length of more than 200 nucleotides and no coding capacity, are essential for the development and regulation of a variety of biological processes and diseases. lncRNAs are involved in the intestinal barrier function and homeostasis maintenance. This article reviews the emerging role of lncRNAs in the intestinal barrier and highlights the potential applications of lncRNAs in the treatment of various intestinal diseases by reviewing the literature on cells, animal models, and clinical patients. The aim is to explore potential lncRNAs involved in the intestinal barrier and provide new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of intestinal barrier damage-associated diseases in the clinical setting.

Abstract
The frequent metastasis of gastric cancer (GC) complicates the cure and therefore the development of effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches is urgently necessary. In recent years, lncRNA has emerged as a drug target in the treatment of GC, particularly in the areas of cancer immunity, cancer metabolism, and cancer metastasis. This has led to the demonstration of the importance of these RNAs as prognostic, diagnostic and therapeutic agents. In this review, we provide an overview of the biological activities of lncRNAs in GC development and update the latest pathological activities, prognostic and diagnostic strategies, and therapeutic options for GC-related lncRNAs.

Abstract
Before very sensitive current genomics platforms were discovered, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as controllers of gene expression, were thought to be accumulated genetic garbage. The past few years have seen a lot of interest in a large classification of non-coding transcripts with an indeterminate length of more than 200 nucleotides [1]. lncRNAs' association with immunity and disease progression has been revealed by a growing body of experimental research. Only a limited subset of lncRNAs, however, has solid proof of their role. It is also clear that various immune cells express lncRNAs differently. In this review, we concentrated on the role of lncRNA expression in the regulation of immune cell function and response to pathological conditions in macrophages, dendritic cells, natural killer (NK) cells, neutrophils, Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), T cells, and B cells. The innate and adaptive immune response systems may be significantly regulated by lncRNAs, according to emerging research. To discover possible therapeutic targets for the therapy of different diseases, it may be helpful to have a better realization of the molecular mechanisms beyond the role of lncRNAs in the immune response. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate lncRNA expression and comprehend its significance for the immune system.
