Abstract
B cells are crucial to the humoral immune response, originating in the bone marrow and maturing in the spleen and lymph nodes. They primarily function to protect against a wide range of infections through the secretion of antibodies. The role of B cells in primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) has gained significant attention, especially following the discovery of various autoantibodies that target podocyte antigens and the observed positive outcomes from B cell depletion therapy. Increasing evidence points to the presence of abnormal B cell subsets and functions in MN. B cells have varied roles during the different stages of disease onset, progression, and relapse. Initially, B cells facilitate self-antigen presentation, activate effector T cells, and initiate cellular immunity. Subsequently, the disruption of both central and peripheral immune tolerance results in the emergence of autoreactive B cells, with strong germinal center responses as a major source of MN autoantibodies. Additionally, critical B cell subsets, including Bregs, memory B cells, and plasma cells, play roles in the immune dysregulation observed in MN, assisting in predicting disease recurrence and guiding management strategies for MN. This review offers a detailed overview of research advancements on B cells and elucidates their pathological roles in MN.

Concerted synergy between viral-specific IgG and CD8 + T cells is critical for clearance of an HCV-related rodent hepacivirus. Hepatology 2024; 80:937-950. [PMID: 38214558 PMCID: PMC11239798 DOI: 10.1097/hep.0000000000000753] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Evidence assessing the role of B cells and their antibodies, or lack thereof, in the spontaneous resolution of acute HCV infection is conflicting. Utilization of a strictly hepatotropic, HCV-related rodent hepacivirus (RHV) model circumvents many of the challenges facing the field in characterizing the immunological correlates of dichotomous infection outcomes. This study seeks to elucidate the importance of B cells in the clearance of acute RHV infection. APPROACH AND RESULTS µMT mice were infected i.v. with RHV and found to develop chronic infection for over a year. Wild-type (WT) mice depleted of B cells also exhibited persistent viremia that resolved only upon B cell resurgence. The persistent infection developed by B1-8i and AID cre/cre mice revealed that antigen-specific, class-switched B cells or their antibodies were crucial for viral resolution. Virus-specific CD8 + and CD4 + T cells were characterized in these mice using newly developed major histocompatibility complex class I and II tetramers and ex vivo peptide stimulation. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) was purified from the serum of RHV- or lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus Armstrong-infected mice after viral clearance and passively transferred to AID cre/cre recipients, revealing viral clearance only in αRHV IgG recipients. Further, the transfer of αRHV IgG into B cell-depleted recipients also induced viral resolution. This ability of RHV-specific IgG to induce viral clearance was found to require the concomitant presence of CD8 + T cells. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate a cooperative interdependence between immunoglobulins and the T cell compartment that is required for RHV resolution. Thus, HCV vaccine regimens should aim to simultaneously elicit robust HCV-specific antibody and T cell responses for optimal protective efficacy.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is a powerful adoptive immunotherapy against blood cancers, but the therapeutic effect was not efficient enough on solid tumors. B cells have been reported to play a critical role in regulating memory T differentiation and cytotoxic T development. However, as of yet the influence of such B cells on CAR T cells has not been discussed. In this study, using ephrin type-A receptor 2 (EphA2) specific CAR T cells, we cultured B cells successfully to stimulate CAR T cells in vitro, and investigated the cell differentiation and anti-tumor efficiency. We observed that EphA2-CAR T cells stimulated by B cells performed increased interferon γ (IFN γ) production and upregulated OX40 expression, as well as the enhanced anti-tumor activity and reduced PD-1 expression. The persistence of CAR T cells was enhanced after B cells stimulation for more than 7 days with the increased subset of central memory T cells (TCM). In addition, next generation sequencing was performed to explore the underlying mechanisms. The up-regulated genes clustered in, immune response activation, chemokine signaling pathway, calcium signaling pathway, cGMP-PKG signaling pathway and et al. which contributed to the upregulated anti-glioblastoma (GBM) activity of CAR T cells stimulated by B cell. Furthermore, MEF2C, CD40, SYK and TNFRSF13B were upregulated in CAR T cells after co-culturing with B cells. These genes functionally enriched in promoting lymphocytes proliferation and may contribute to the enhanced persistence of CAR T cells. In conclusion, these results indicated the critical role of B cells in prolonging CAR T cells longevity and enhancing anti-tumor activity, which paves the way for the therapeutic exploitation of EphA2-CAR T cells against GBM in the future.

Abstract
A first-in-human trial demonstrated that a vaccine targeting the histone mutation H3K27M can induce an immune response, in a mutation-specific manner, in patients with diffuse midline glioma. In a recent study by Boschert et al., the same group now dissects the functional immune response triggered after effective vaccination of one of the patients, who has been in remission for over 3 years. The H3K27M peptide vaccine, named H3-vac, induces a CD4+ T-cell-specific immune response in this patient and expands the repertoire of polyclonal H3K27M-specific T-cell receptors. A clonal H3K27M-reactive B-cell population was also detected in the patient's cerebrospinal fluid. Importantly, the immune response is induced across various human leukocyte antigen alleleotypes, indicating the potential efficacy of the vaccine in diverse populations. By exploring in detail the immune response linked to this patient's long-term survival, the authors prove peptide vaccinations as a viable therapeutic approach. This paves the way for personalised therapies harnessing immunogenic T- and B-cell responses against different tumour types.

Abstract
The studies reported here focus on the impact of pre-existing CD4 T cell immunity on the first encounter with SARS-CoV-2. They leverage PBMC samples from plasma donors collected after a first SARS-CoV-2 infection, prior to vaccine availability and compared to samples collected prior to the emergence of SARS-CoV-2. Analysis of CD4 T cell specificity across the entire SARS-CoV-2 proteome revealed that the recognition of SARS-CoV-2-derived epitopes by CD4 memory cells prior to the pandemic are enriched for reactivity toward non-structural proteins conserved across endemic CoV strains. However, CD4 T cells after primary infection with SARS-CoV-2 focus on epitopes from structural proteins. We observed little evidence for preferential recall to epitopes conserved between SARS-CoV-2 and seasonal CoV, a finding confirmed through use of selectively curated conserved and SARS-unique peptides. Our data suggest that SARS-CoV-2 CD4 T cells elicited by the first infection are primarily established from the naive CD4 T cell pool.

Abstract
Background Infection with Treponema pallidum instigates complex immune responses. Prior research has suggested that persistent Treponema pallidum infection can manipulate host immune responses and circumvent host defenses. However, the precise role of immune cells in Treponema pallidum infection across different stages remains a contentious issue. Methods Utilizing summary data from genome-wide association studies, we employed a two-sample Mendelian randomization method to investigate the association between 731 immunophenotypes and syphilis. Syphilis was categorized into early and late stages in this study to establish a more robust correlation and minimize bias in database sources. Results Our findings revealed that 33, 36, and 27 immunophenotypes of peripheral blood were associated with syphilis (regardless of disease stage), early syphilis and late syphilis, respectively. Subsequent analysis demonstrated significant variations between early and late syphilis in terms of immunophenotypes. Specifically, early syphilis showcased activated, secreting, and resting regulatory T cells, whereas late syphilis was characterized by resting Treg cells. More B cells subtypes emerged in late syphilis. Monocytes in early syphilis exhibited an intermediate and non-classical phenotype, transitioning to classical in late syphilis. Early syphilis featured naive T cells, effector memory T cells, and terminally differentiated T cells, while late syphilis predominantly presented terminally differentiated T cells. Immature myeloid-derived suppressor cells were evident in early syphilis, whereas the dendritic cell immunophenotype was exclusive to late syphilis. Conclusion Multiple immunophenotypes demonstrated associations with syphilis, showcasing substantial disparities between the early and late stages of the disease. These findings hold promise for informing immunologically oriented treatment strategies, paving the way for more effective and efficient syphilis interventions.

Abstract
H3K27M, a driver mutation with T and B cell neoepitope characteristics, defines an aggressive subtype of diffuse glioma with poor survival. We functionally dissect the immune response of one patient treated with an H3K27M peptide vaccine who subsequently entered complete remission. The vaccine robustly expanded class II human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-restricted peripheral H3K27M-specific T cells. Using functional assays, we characterized 34 clonally unique H3K27M-reactive T cell receptors and identified critical, conserved motifs in their complementarity-determining region 3 regions. Using detailed HLA mapping, we further demonstrate that diverse HLA-DQ and HLA-DR alleles present immunogenic H3K27M epitopes. Furthermore, we identified and profiled H3K27M-reactive B cell receptors from activated B cells in the cerebrospinal fluid. Our results uncover the breadth of the adaptive immune response against a shared clonal neoantigen across multiple HLA allelotypes and support the use of class II-restricted peptide vaccines to stimulate tumor-specific T and B cells harboring receptors with therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Emerging studies have identified the critical roles of tissue-resident memory CD8+ T (TRM) and B (BRM) cells in the protection against mucosal viral infections, but the underlying mechanisms regulating robust development of TRM and BRM cells remain incompletely understood. We have recently shown that tissue-resident helper CD4+ T (TRH) cells, developed following influenza virus infection, function to sustain the optimal maintenance of TRM and BRM cells at the mucosal surface. In this study, we have explored the cellular and molecular cues modulating lung TRH persistence after influenza infection in C57BL/6 mice. We found that TRH cells were colocalized in tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) with local B cells. Abolishing TLSs or the depletion of B cells impaired lung TRH cell numbers. Of note, we found that persistent TCR signaling is needed for the maintenance of TRH cells after the clearance of infectious influenza virus. Furthermore, selective ablation of B cell-derived MHC class II resulted in partial reduction of lung TRH cell number after influenza infection. Our findings suggest that the interaction between lung-resident TRH cells and B cells, along with persistent Ag stimulation, is required to maintain TRH cells after respiratory viral infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver metastasis is the leading cause of death in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, and the precise mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) was used to analyze the cellular and molecular heterogeneity between CRC primary lesion and corresponding liver metastasis, and to clarify the characteristics of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in synchronous liver metastasis of CRC. METHODS A case of microsatellite stable (MSS) sigmoid carcinoma with synchronous liver metastasis was selected, and tissues from the primary tumor and the liver metastasis were collected for scRNA-seq. The EdgeR package software was used to identify the differentially expressed genes between cells. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was performed and the clusterProfiler R package was used for Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis. The SCENIC and CellphoneDB packages were used to reconstruct the transcriptional regulatory networks and to analyze the intercellular interaction network, respectively. RESULTS Compared to the primary tumor, the proportion of myeloid cells in the metastatic tumor was significantly increased, while B cells and plasma cells were decreased. In the metastatic tumor, the myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) characteristic gene, mannose receptor C-type 1 (MRC1) and tumor associated macrophage 2 (TAM2)-related gene, were highly expressed. Furthermore, angiogenesis, oxidative phosphorylation, and endothelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) of myeloid cells were also significantly enhanced. There were less myeloid cells in primary tumors, and these were mainly monocytes and TAM1; while the number of TAM2 was significantly upregulated in the metastatic samples. In liver metastasis, the T cell population was exhausted, and this was accompanied by a significant increase in the number of CD4+ T cells and a decrease in the number of CD8+ T cells. Furthermore, some immune checkpoint molecules were highly expressed. Interactions between myeloid cells and other cell populations appeared to be strong. CONCLUSIONS The TME of CRC liver metastasis is significantly immunosuppressed. Interactions between myeloid cells and other cell populations in the TME contribute to the establishment of a pro-metastatic niche that promotes colonization and growth of CRC cells in the liver. TAMs may be a potential immunotherapeutic target for MSS CRC.

Abstract
The existence of multiple endocytic pathways is well known, and their exact biological effects in tumors have been intensively investigated. Endocytosis can affect the connection between tumor cells and determine the fate of tumor cells. Many relationships between endocytosis and tumor cells have been elucidated, but the mechanism of endocytosis between different types of cells in tumors needs to be explored in greater depth. Endocytic receptors sense the environment and are induced by specific ligands to trigger communication between tumor and immune cells. Crosstalk in the tumor microenvironment can occur through direct contact between cell adhesion molecules or indirectly through exosomes. So a better understanding of the endocytic pathways that control cell adhesion molecules and function is expected to lead to new candidates for cancer treatment. In additional, tumor-derived exosomes may changes immune cell function, which may be a key role for tumors to evade immune detection and response. The overall understanding of exosomes through endocytosis is also expected to bring new candidates for therapeutic regulation of tumor immune microenvironment. In this case, endocytic pathways coordinate cell adhesion molecules and exosomes and can be used as targets in the tumor immune microenvironment for cancer treatment. Video Abstract

Abstract
Immune cells infiltrating the central nervous system (CNS) are involved in the defense against invading microbes as well as in the pathogenesis of neuroinflammatory diseases. In these conditions, the presence of several types of immune and inflammatory cells have been demonstrated. However, some studies have also reported low amounts of immune cells that have been detected in the CNS of healthy individuals, but the cell types present have not been systematically analyzed. To do this, we now used brain samples from The Genotype- Tissue Expression (GTEx) project to analyze the relative abundance of 22 infiltrating leukocyte types using a digital cytometry tool (CIBERSORTx). To characterize cell proportions in different parts of the CNS, samples from 13 different anatomic brain regions were used. The data obtained demonstrated that several leukocyte types were present in the CNS. Six leukocyte types (CD4 memory resting T cells, M0 macrophages, plasma cells, CD8 T cells, CD4 memory activated T cells, and monocytes) were present with a proportion higher than 0.05, i.e. 5%. These six cell types were present in most brain regions with only insignificant variation. A consistent association with age was seen with monocytes, CD8 T cells, and follicular helper T cells. Taken together, these data show that several infiltrating immune cell types are present in the non-diseased CNS tissue and that the proportions of infiltrating cells are affected by age in a manner that is consistent with literature on immunosenecence and inflammaging.

Bioinformatics-Based Approach for Exploring the Immune Cell Infiltration Patterns in Alzheimer's Disease and Determining the Intervention Mechanism of Liuwei Dihuang Pill.

Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compounds have recently garnered attention for the regulation of immune cell infiltration and the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The Liuwei Dihuang Pill (LDP) has potential in this regard; however, its specific molecular mechanism currently remains unclear. Therefore, we adopted a bioinformatics approach to investigate the infiltration patterns of different types of immune cells in AD and explored the molecular mechanism of LDP intervention, with the aim of providing a new basis for improving the clinical immunotherapy of AD patients. We found that M1 macrophages showed significantly different degrees of infiltration between the hippocampal tissue samples of AD patients and healthy individuals. Four immune intersection targets of LDP in the treatment of AD were identified; they were enriched in 206 biological functions and 30 signaling pathways. Quercetin had the best docking effect with the core immune target PRKCB. Our findings suggest that infiltrated immune cells may influence the course of AD and that LDP can regulate immune cell infiltration through multi-component, multi-target, and multi-pathway approaches, providing a new research direction regarding AD immunotherapy.

Abstract
Major progress in the understanding and treatment of cancer have tremendously improved our knowledge of this complex disease and improved the length and quality of patients' lives. Still, major challenges remain, in particular with respect to cancer metastasis which still escapes effective treatment and remains responsible for 90% of cancer related deaths. In recent years, the advances in cancer cell biology, oncology and tissue engineering converged into the engineered human tissue models of cancer that are increasingly recapitulating many aspects of cancer progression and response to drugs, in a patient-specific context. The complexity and biological fidelity of these models, as well as the specific questions they aim to investigate, vary in a very broad range. When selecting and designing these experimental models, the fundamental question is "how simple is complex enough" to accomplish a specific goal of cancer research. Here we review the state of the art in developing and using the human tissue models in cancer research and developmental drug screening. We describe the main classes of models providing different levels of biological fidelity and complexity, discuss their advantages and limitations, and propose a framework for designing an appropriate model for a given study. We close by outlining some of the current needs, opportunities and challenges in this rapidly evolving field.

Abstract
mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have hegemonized the world market, and their administration to the population promises to stop the pandemic. However, the waning of the humoral immune response, which does not seem to last so many months after the completion of the vaccination program, has led us to study the molecular immunological mechanisms of waning immunity in the case of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. We consulted the published scientific literature and from the few articles we found, we were convinced that there is an immunological memory problem after vaccination. Although mRNA vaccines have been demonstrated to induce antigen-specific memory B cells (MBCs) in the human population, there is no evidence that these vaccines induce the production of long-lived plasma cells (LLPCs), in a SARS-CoV-2 virus naïve population. This obstacle, in our point of view, is caused by the presence, in almost all subjects, of a cellular T and B cross-reactive memory produced during past exposures to the common cold coronaviruses. Due to this interference, it is difficult for a vaccination with the Spike protein alone, without adjuvants capable of prolonging the late phase of the generation of the immunological memory, to be able to determine the production of protective LLPCs. This would explain the possibility of previously and completely vaccinated subjects to become infected, already 4-6 months after the completion of the vaccination cycle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Characterizing the longevity and quality of cellular immune responses to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enhances understanding of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) immunity that influences clinical outcomes. Prior studies suggest SARS-CoV-2-specific T cells are present in peripheral blood 10 months after infection. Analysis of the function, durability, and diversity of cellular response long after natural infection, over a range of ages and disease phenotypes, is needed to identify preventative and therapeutic interventions. METHODS We identified participants in our multisite longitudinal, prospective cohort study 12 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection representing a range of disease severity. We investigated function, phenotypes, and frequency of T cells specific for SARS-CoV-2 using intracellular cytokine staining and spectral flow cytometry, and compared magnitude of SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies. RESULTS SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies and T cells were detected 12 months postinfection. Severe acute illness was associated with higher frequencies of SARS-CoV-2-specific CD4 T cells and antibodies at 12 months. In contrast, polyfunctional and cytotoxic T cells responsive to SARS-CoV-2 were identified in participants over a wide spectrum of disease severity. CONCLUSIONS SARS-CoV-2 infection induces polyfunctional memory T cells detectable at 12 months postinfection, with higher frequency noted in those who experienced severe disease.

Abstract
Pathogens of viral origin produce a large variety of infectious diseases in livestock. It is essential to establish the best practices in animal care and an efficient way to stop and prevent infectious diseases that impact animal husbandry. So far, the greatest way to combat the disease is to adopt a vaccine policy. In the fight against infectious diseases, vaccines are very popular. Vaccination's fundamental concept is to utilize particular antigens, either endogenous or exogenous to induce immunity against the antigens or cells. In light of how past emerging and reemerging infectious diseases and pandemics were handled, examining the vaccination methods and technological platforms utilized for the animals may provide some useful insights. New vaccine manufacturing methods have evolved because of developments in technology and medicine and our broad knowledge of immunology, molecular biology, microbiology, and biochemistry, among other basic science disciplines. Genetic engineering, proteomics, and other advanced technologies have aided in implementing novel vaccine theories, resulting in the discovery of new ruminant vaccines and the improvement of existing ones. Subunit vaccines, recombinant vaccines, DNA vaccines, and vectored vaccines are increasingly gaining scientific and public attention as the next generation of vaccines and are being seen as viable replacements to conventional vaccines. The current review looks at the effects and implications of recent ruminant vaccine advances in terms of evolving microbiology, immunology, and molecular biology.
