Skin innate immune response against fungal infections and the potential role of trained immunity. Mycoses 2024; 67.

Abstract
Fungal skin infections are distributed worldwide and can be associated with economic and social traits. The immune response related to skin cells is complex and its understanding is essential to the comprehension of each cell's role and the discovery of treatment alternatives. The first studies of trained immunity (TI) described the ability of monocytes, macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells to develop a memory-like response. However, the duration of TI does not reflect the shorter lifespan of these cells. These conclusions supported later studies showing that TI can be observed in stem and haematopoietic cells and, more recently, also in non-immune skin cells such as fibroblasts, highlighting the importance of resident cells in response to skin disorders. Besides, the participation of less studied proinflammatory cytokines in the skin immune response, such as IL-36γ, shed light into a new possibility of inflammatory pathway blockade by drugs. In this review, we will discuss the skin immune response associated with fungal infections, the role of TI in skin and clinical evidence supporting opportunities and challenges of TI and other inflammatory responses in the pathogenesis of fungal skin infections.

IL-38 regulates intestinal stem cell homeostasis by inducing WNT signaling and beneficial IL-1β secretion. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2023; 120:e2306476120. [PMID: 37906644 PMCID: PMC10636342 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2306476120] [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: 05/02/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 11/02/2023] Open
Abstract
The IL-1 Family member IL-38 has been characterized primarily as an antiinflammatory cytokine in human and mouse models of systemic diseases. Here, we examined the role of IL-38 in the murine small intestine (SI). Immunostaining of SI revealed that IL-38 expression partially confines to intestinal stem cells. Cultures of intestinal organoids reveal IL-38 functions as a growth factor by increasing organoid size via inducing WNT3a. In contrast, organoids from IL-38-deficient mice develop more slowly. This reduction in size is likely due to the downregulation of intestinal stemness markers (i.e., Fzd5, Ephb2, and Olfm4) expression compared with wild-type organoids. The IL-38 binding to IL-1R6 and IL-1R9 is still a matter of debate. Therefore, to analyze the molecular mechanisms of IL-38 signaling, we also examined organoids from IL-1R9-deficient mice. Unexpectedly, these organoids, although significantly smaller than wild type, respond to IL-38, suggesting that IL-1R9 is not involved in IL-38 signaling in the stem cell crypt. Nevertheless, silencing of IL-1R6 disabled the organoid response to the growth property of IL-38, thus suggesting IL-1R6 as the main receptor used by IL-38 in the crypt compartment. In organoids from wild-type mice, IL-38 stimulation induced low concentrations of IL-1β which contribute to organoid growth. However, high concentrations of IL-1β have detrimental effects on the cultures that were prevented by treatment with recombinant IL-38. Overall, our data demonstrate an important regulatory function of IL-38 as a growth factor, and as an antiinflammatory molecule in the SI, maintaining homeostasis.
