Abstract
The Notch signaling pathway is the most crucial link in the normal operation and maintenance of physiological functions of mammalian life processes. Notch receptors interact with ligands and this leads to three cleavages and goes on to enter the nucleus to initiate the transcription of target genes. The Notch signaling pathway deeply participates in the differentiation and function of various cells, including immune cells. Recent studies indicate that the outcomes of Notch signaling are changeable and highly dependent on different bacterial infection. The Notch signaling pathway plays a different role in promoting and inhibiting bacterial infection. In this review, we focus on the latest research findings of the Notch signaling pathway in bacterial infectious diseases. The Notch signaling pathway is critically involved in a variety of development processes of immunosuppression of different APCs. The Notch signaling pathway leads to functional changes in epithelial cells to aggravate tissue damage. Specifically, we illustrate the regulatory mechanism of the Notch signaling pathway in various bacterial infections, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis, Mycobacterium leprae, Helicobacter pylori, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Ehrlichia chaffeensis and sepsis. Collectively, this review will not only help beginners intuitively and systematically understand the Notch signaling pathway in bacterial infectious diseases but also help experts to generate fresh insight in this field.

Abstract
Notch signaling manipulates the function and phenotype of dendritic cells (DCs), as well as the interaction between DCs and CD4+ T cells. However, the role of Notch signaling in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection remains elusive. Murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) were pretreated in the absence or presence of Notch signaling inhibitor DAPT prior to H. pylori stimulation and the levels of Notch components, cytokines and surface markers as well as the differentiation of CD4+ T cells in co-culture were measured using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), Western blot, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and flow cytometry. Compared with the control, the mRNA expression of all Notch receptors and Notch ligands Dll4 and Jagged1 was up-regulated in H. pylori-stimulated BMDCs. The blockade of Notch signaling by DAPT influenced the production of IL-1β and IL-10 in H. pylori-pulsed BMDCs, and reduced the expression of Notch1, Notch3, Notch4, Dll1, Dll3 and Jagged2. In addition, DAPT pretreatment decreased the expression of maturation markers CD80, CD83, CD86, and major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) of BMDCs, and further skewed Th17/Treg balance toward Treg. Notch signaling regulates the function and phenotype of DCs, thus mediating the differentiation of CD4+ T cells during H. pylori infection.

Abstract
ObjectivesThe Notch signaling pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of active tuberculosis (TB), and Th1-type cell-mediated immunity is essential for effective control of mycobacterial infection. However, it remains unclear whether Notch signaling molecules (Notch1, DLL1, and Hes1) and Th1-type factors (T-bet and IFN-γ) can serve as biomarkers for tracking the progression of active TB at different stages along with peripheral blood white blood cell (WBC) parameters.MethodsA total of 60 participants were enrolled in the study, including 37 confirmed TB patients (mild (n=17), moderate/severe (n=20)) and 23 healthy controls. The mRNA expression of Notch1, DLL1, Hes1, T-bet and IFN-γ in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of the subjects was measured by RT-qPCR, then analyzed for differences. Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (ROC) was used to assess the effectiveness of each factor as a biomarker in identifying lung injury.ResultsWe found that mRNA expression levels of Notch1, DLL1, and Hes1 were upregulated in active TB patients, with higher levels observed in those with moderate/severe TB than those with mild TB or without TB. In contrast, mRNA levels of T-bet and IFN-γ were downregulated and significantly lower in mild and moderate/severe cases. Furthermore, the combiROC analysis of IFN-γ and the percentage of lymphocytes (L%) among WBC parameters showed superior discriminatory ability compared to other factors for identifying individuals with active TB versus healthy individuals. Notably, Notch pathway molecules were more effective than Th1-type factors and WBC parameters in differentiating mild and moderate/severe cases of active TB, particularly in the combiROC model that included Notch1 and Hes1.ConclusionsOur study demonstrated that Notch1, Hes1, IFN-γ, and L% can be used as biomarkers to identify different stages of active TB patients and to monitor the effectiveness of treatment.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is a prevalent pathogen, which affects more than 40% of the global population. It colonizes the human stomach and persists in its host for several decades or even a lifetime, if left untreated. The persistent infection has been linked to various gastric diseases, including gastritis, peptic ulcers, and an increased risk for gastric cancer. H. pylori infection triggers a strong immune response directed against the bacterium associated with the infiltration of innate phagocytotic immune cells and the induction of a Th1/Th17 response. Even though certain immune cells seem to be capable of controlling the infection, the host is unable to eliminate the bacteria as H. pylori has developed remarkable immune evasion strategies. The bacterium avoids its killing through innate recognition mechanisms and manipulates gastric epithelial cells and immune cells to support its persistence. This chapter focuses on the innate and adaptive immune response induced by H. pylori infection, and immune evasion strategies employed by the bacterium to enable persistent infection.

Impaired immunosuppressive role of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in acquired aplastic anemia. Haematologica 2022; 107:2834-2845.

Abstract
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a group of heterogeneous immature myeloid cells and display immunosuppressive function. In this study, MDSC populations were evaluated in acquired aplastic anemia (AA) (n=65) in which aberrant immune mechanisms contributed to bone marrow destruction. Our data demonstrate that both the proportion and immunosuppressive function of MDSC are impaired in AA patients. Decreased percentage of MDSC, especially monocytic MDSC, in the blood of AA patients (n=15) is positively correlated with the frequency of T-regulatory cells, bone marrow level of WT1 and decreased plasma level of arginase-1. RNA sequencing analyses reveal that multiple pathways including DNA damage, interleukin 4, apoptosis, and Jak kinase singnal transducer and activator of transcription are upregulated, whereas transcription, IL-6, IL-18, glycolysis, transforming growth factor and reactive oxygen species are downregulated in MDSC of AA (n=4), compared with that of healthy donors (n=3). These data suggest that AA MDSC are defective. Administration of rapamycin significantly increases the absolute number of MDSC and levels of intracellular enzymes, including arginase-1 and inducible nitric-oxide synthase. Moreover, rapamycin inhibits MDSC from differentiating into mature myeloid cells. These findings reveal that impaired MDSC are involved in the immunopathogenesis of AA. Pharmacologically targeting of MDSC by rapamycin might provide a promising therapeutic strategy for AA.

Helicobacter pylori promotes gastric cancer progression through the tumor microenvironment. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 106:4375-4385.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is a leading type of cancer. Although immunotherapy has yielded important recent progress in the treatment of GC, the prognosis remains poor due to drug resistance and frequent recurrence and metastasis. There are multiple known risk factors for GC, and infection with Helicobacter pylori is one of the most significant. The mechanisms underlying the associations of H. pylori and GC remain unclear, but it is well known that infection can alter the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME and the tumor itself constitute a complete ecosystem, and the TME plays critical roles in tumor progression, metastasis, and drug resistance. H. pylori infection can act synergistically with the TME to cause DNA damage and abnormal expression of multiple genes and activation of signaling pathways. It also modulates the host immune system in ways that enhance the proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells, promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition, inhibit apoptosis, and provide energy support for tumor growth. This review elaborates myriad ways that H. pylori infections promote the occurrence and progression of GC by influencing the TME, providing new directions for immunotherapy treatments for this important disease. KEY POINTS: • H. pylori infections cause DNA damage and affect the repair of the TME to DNA damage. • H. pylori infections regulate oncogenes or activate the oncogenic signaling pathways. • H. pylori infections modulate the immune system within the TME.

Abstract
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic parasitic disease spread worldwide caused by Echinococcus granulosus (Eg), which sometimes causes serious damage; however, in many cases, people are not aware that they are infected. A number of recombinant vaccines based on Eg are used to evaluate their effectiveness against the infection. Our previous report showed that recombinant Eg.P29 (rEg.P29) has a marvelous immunoprotection and can induce Th1 immune response. Furthermore, data of miRNA microarray in mice spleen CD4+ T cells showed that miR-126a-5p was significantly elevated 1 week after immunization by using rEg.P29. Therefore, in this perspective, we discussed the role of miR-126a-5p in the differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into Th1/Th2 under rEg.P29 immunization and determined the mechanisms associated with delta-like 1 homolog (DLK1) and Notch1 signaling pathway. One week after P29 immunization of mice, we found that miR-126a-5p was significantly increased and DLK1 expression was decreased, while Notch1 pathway activation was enhanced and Th1 response was significantly stronger. The identical conclusion was obtained by overexpression of mmu-miR-126a-5p in primary naive CD4+ T cells in mice. Intriguingly, mmu-miR-126a-5p was significantly raised in serum from mice infected with protoscolex in the early stages of infection and markedly declined in the late stages of infection, while has-miR-126-5p expression was dramatically reduced in serum from CE patients. Taken together, we show that miR-126a-5p functions as a positive regulator of Notch1-mediated differentiation of CD4+ T cells into Th1 through downregulating DLK1 in vivo and in vitro. Hsa-miR-126-5p is potentially a very promising diagnostic biomarker for CE.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the gram-negative bacteria that mainly colonize the stomach mucosa and cause many gastrointestinal diseases, such as gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer. Macrophages play a key role in eradicating H. pylori. Recent data have shown that Notch signaling could modulate the activation and bactericidal activities of macrophages. However, the role of Notch signaling in macrophages against H. pylori remains unclear. In the present study, in the co-culture model of macrophages with H. pylori, the inhibition of Notch signaling using γ-secretase decreased the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and its product, nitric oxide (NO), and downregulated the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokine and attenuated phagocytosis and bactericidal activities of macrophages to H. pylori. Furthermore, we identified that Jagged1, one of Notch signaling ligands, was both upregulated in mRNA and protein level in activated macrophages induced by H. pylori. Clinical specimens showed that the number of Jagged1+ macrophages in the stomach mucosa from H. pylori-infected patients was significantly higher than that in healthy control. The overexpression of Jagged1 promoted bactericidal activities of macrophages against H. pylori and siRNA-Jagged1 presented the opposite effect. Besides, the addition of exogenous rJagged1 facilitated the pro-inflammatory mediators of macrophages against H. pylori, but the treatment of anti-Jagged1 neutralizing antibody attenuated it. Taken together, these results suggest that Jagged1 is a promoting molecule for macrophages against H. pylori, which will provide insight for exploring Jagged1 as a novel therapeutic target for the control of H. pylori infection.
