    Kurzfassung: Delivery by cesarean section (CS) is linked to an increased incidence of food allergies in children and affects early gut microbiota colonization. Furthermore, emerging evidence has connected disordered intestinal microbiota to food allergies. Here, we investigated the impact of CS on a rat model for food allergy to ovalbumin (OVA). Rats delivered by CS were found to be more responsive to OVA sensitization than vaginally born ones, displaying a greater reduction in rectal temperature upon challenge, worse diarrhea, and higher levels of OVA-specific antibodies and histamine. 16S rRNA sequencing of feces revealed reduced levels of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium in the CS rats. Preventative supplementation with a probiotic combination containing Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium could protect CS rats against an allergic response to OVA, indicating that the microbiota dysbiosis contributes to CS-related response. Additionally, probiotic intervention early in life might help to rebuild aberrant Th2 responses and tight junction proteins, both of which have been linked to CS-related high allergic reactions. Taken together, this study shows that disordered intestinal microbiota plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of food allergy mediated by CS. More importantly, interventions that modulate the microbiota composition in early life are therapeutically relevant for CS-related food allergies.

    Kurzfassung: S100 calcium-binding protein A10 (S100A10) is crucially involved in the tumorigenesis of multiple malignant tumors. Reprogrammed glucose metabolism is emerging as a hallmark of various human cancers. However, the function of S100A10 in aerobic glycolysis is unclear. The expression of S100A10 was analyzed using the Oncomine database, Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA), The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), and the UALCAN cancer database. Prognostic analysis was performed using the Kaplan–Meier Plotter. The correlation between S100A10 and key glycolytic factors was assessed by GEPIA. The glycolysis level was examined by determining glucose consumption, lactate production, adenosine triphosphate production, cellular oxygen consumption rate, and extracellular acidification rate. Cell apoptosis was investigated by flow cytometry. Colony formation and BrdU assays were performed to detect cell proliferation. A subcutaneous xenograft mouse model was established to evaluate the effects of S100A10 in vivo . Gene Set Enrichment Analysis and western blotting were performed to explore the downstream signaling pathway. S100A10 was significantly upregulated in gastric cancer. Its expression was associated with poor survival. S100A10 increased glucose consumption, lactate production, and the switch from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis. S100A10 promoted malignant proliferation and suppressed cell apoptosis in gastric cancer. S100A10 activated the mTOR pathway by interacting with annexin A2 (ANXA2) to accelerate tumor glycolysis, resulting in tumor malignant progression. S100A10 contributed to aerobic glycolysis and accelerated malignant growth by modulating the Src/ANXA2/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Thus, S100A10 may have pivotal roles in gastric cancer.

    Kurzfassung: Up to now, there has been insufficient clinical data to support the safety and effects of vaccination on pregnancy post COVID-19 vaccination. The γδ-T cells are considered an important component in the immune system to fight against viral infection and exhibit critical roles throughout the pregnancy period. However, the immunological roles of γδ-T cells in pregnant women with the COVID-19 vaccination remain unclear. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate the alteration of frequency and expression pattern of activation receptors and inhibitory receptors in γδ-T cell and its subsets in peripheral blood samples collected from non-pregnant vaccinated women, vaccinated pregnant women, and unvaccinated pregnant women. Our findings indicated that the frequency of CD3 + γδ-T + cells is lower in vaccinated pregnant women than in unvaccinated pregnant women. But no significant difference was found in the frequency of CD3 + γδ-T + cells between non-pregnant vaccinated women and vaccinated pregnant women. In addition, there were no significant differences in the frequencies of CD3 + γδ-T + Vδ1 + T cells, CD3 + γδ-T + Vδ2 + T cells, CD3 + γδ-T + Vδ1 - Vδ2 - T cells, and Vδ1 + T cell/Vδ2 + T cell ratio between the pregnant women with or without COVID-19 vaccination. Similar results were found after comparing non-pregnant and pregnant women who received the COVID-19 vaccine. However, there was a significant difference in the fraction of Vδ1 - Vδ2 - T cells in CD3 + γδ-T + cells between non-pregnant vaccinated women and vaccinated pregnant women. The frequency of NKG2D + cells in Vδ2 + T cells was not significantly different in the vaccinated pregnant women when compared to that in unvaccinated pregnant women or non-pregnant vaccinated women. But the percentage of NKG2D + cells in Vδ1 + T cells was the lowest in pregnant women after COVID-19 vaccination. Furthermore, down-regulation of NKP46 and NKP30 were found in Vδ2 + T and Vδ1 + T cells in the vaccinated pregnant women, respectively. After the vaccination, up-regulation of PD-1 expression in Vδ1 + T cells and Vδ2 + T cells indicated γδ-T cells could respond to COVID-19 vaccination and display an exhausted phenotype following activation. In conclusion, COVID-19 vaccination influences subtypes of γδ-T cells during pregnancy, but the side effects might be limited. The phenotypical changes of Vδ1 + T cells and Vδ2 + T cells will be a promising predictor for evaluating the clinical outcome of the COVID-19 vaccine.

    Kurzfassung: Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAD) is a chronic inflammatory cardiovascular disease with high morbidity and mortality. Growing data indicate that many immune cells are involved in the development of atherosclerosis. However, the immunological roles of γδ T cells in the initiation and progression of CAD are not fully understood. Here, we used flow cytometry to determine phenotypical changes of γδ T cells and their subpopulations in peripheral blood samples collected from 37 CAD patients. The Pearson correlation coefficient was used to analyze the relationship between the clinical parameter (serum LDL-C level) and the changes of immunophenotypes of γδ T cells. Our results demonstrated that the frequencies and absolute numbers of total γδ T cells and Vδ2 + T cells were significantly decreased in CAD patients when compared to healthy individuals. However, the proportion of Vδ1 + T cells was much lower in CAD patients than that of healthy individuals. Most importantly, a significant alteration of the Vδ1/Vδ2 ratio was found in CAD patients. In addition, a series of surface markers that are associated with costimulatory signals (CD28, CD40L, CD80, CD86), activation levels (CD69, CD25, HLA-DR), activating NK cell receptors (NKp30, NKp46, NKG2D) and inhibitory receptors (PD-1, CTLA-4, PD-1, Tim-3) were determined and then analyzed in the total γδ T cells, Vδ2 + T cells and Vδ2 - T cells of CAD patients and healthy individuals. The data demonstrated that immunological activities of total γδ T cells, Vδ2 + T cells, and Vδ2 - T cells of CAD patients were much lower than those in healthy individuals. Moreover, we found that there were positive correlations between the serum LDL-C levels and frequencies of CD3 + γδ + T cells, CD69 + Vδ2 + T cells, NKG2D + Vδ2 + T cells, and NKp46 + Vδ2 + T cells. By contrast, there was an inverse correlation between the levels of serum LDL-C and the frequencies of CD69 + Vδ2 - T cells and NKp46 + Vδ2 - T cells. Accordingly, these findings could help us to better understand the roles of γδ T cells in the CAD, and shed light on the development of novel diagnostic techniques and therapeutic strategies by targeting γδ T cells for CAD patients.

    Kurzfassung: High serum uric acid (SUA) levels increase the risk of overall cancer morbidity and mortality, particularly for digestive malignancies. Nevertheless, the correlation between SUA level and clinical outcomes of the postoperative patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) treated by chemotherapy is unclear. This study aimed at exploring the relationship between baseline SUA level and progression-free survival (PFS), disease control rate (DCR), and safety in postoperative CRC patients receiving chemotherapy. Patients and Methods We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the relationship between baseline SUA level and PFS, DCR, and incidence of serious adverse events of 736 postoperative CRC patients treated with FOLFOX, FOLFIRI or XELOX at our center. Results Data from our center suggested that high baseline SUA level is linked to poor PFS in non-metastatic CRC patients using FOLFOX (HR=2.59, 95%CI: 1.29-11.31, p=0.018) and in male patients using FOLFIRI (HR=3.77, 95%CI: 1.57-39.49, p=0.012). In patients treated by FOLFIRI, a high SUA is also linked to a low DCR (p=0.035). In patients using FOLFOX, high baseline SUA level is also linked to a high incidence of neutropenia (p=0.0037). For patients using XELOX, there is no significant correlation between SUA level and PFS, effectiveness, or safety. Conclusions These findings imply that a high SUA level is a promising biomarker associated with poor PFS, DCR and safety of postoperative CRC patients when treated with FOLFOX or FOLFIRI.

    Kurzfassung: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is an incurable disease with high mortality. Chemerin has been found to be associated with pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, the specific role of chemerin in mediating PH development remains unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the regulatory effects and the underlying mechanism of chemerin on PH and to investigate the expression levels of chemerin protein in plasma in PAH patients. In vivo , two animal models of PH were established in rats by monocrotaline (MCT) injection and hypoxia. We found that the expression levels of chemerin and its receptor, chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1), were significantly upregulated in the lungs of PH rats. Primary cultured pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells [(PASMCs) (isolated from pulmonary arteries of normal healthy rats)] were exposed to hypoxia or treated with recombinant human chemerin, we found that CMKLR1 expression was upregulated in PASMCs in response to hypoxia or chemerin stimulation, whereas the exogenous chemerin significantly promoted the migration and proliferation of PASMCs. Notably, the regulatory effects of chemerin on PASMCs were blunted by PD98059 (a selective ERK1/2 inhibitor). Using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), we found that the protein level of chemerin was also markedly increased in plasma from idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) patients compared to that from healthy controls. Moreover, the diagnostic value of chemerin expression in IPAH patients was determined through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and the result revealed that area under ROC curve (AUC) for plasma chemerin was 0.949. Taken together, these results suggest that chemerin exacerbates PH progression by promoting the proliferation and migration of PASMCs via the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, and chemerin is associated with pulmonary hypertension.

    Kurzfassung: CD19 chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cell therapy has achieved remarkable results in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL). However, the cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was presented in most patients as common toxicity and severe CRS (sCRS) characterized by the sharp increase in interleukin-6 (IL-6) could be life-threatening. We conducted a phase II clinical trial of ssCAR-T-19 cells, anti-CD19 CAR-T cells with shRNA targeting IL-6, in 61 patients with r/r B-ALL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03275493. Fifty-two patients achieved CR while nine patients were considered NR. The median duration of response (DOR) and overall survival (OS) were not reached ( & gt;50 months). CRS developed in 81.97% of patients, including 54.10% with grades 1 to 2 (grade 1, 31.15%; grade 2, 22.95%) and 27.87% with grades 3 to 4 (grade 3, 26.23%; grade 4, 1.64%). sCRS occurs earlier than mild CRS (mCRS). A multivariable analysis of baseline characteristics identified high bone marrow disease burden and poor genetic risk before infusion as independent risk factors for sCRS. After infusion, patients with sCRS exhibited larger expansion of ssCAR-T-19 cells, higher peak levels of IL-6, IL-10, and IFN-γ, and suffered more severe hematological and non-hematological toxicities compared with those with mCRS.

    Kurzfassung: Levels of type 2 cytokines are elevated in the blood and intestinal tissues of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients in the active phase; this phenomenon indicates the participation of type 2 immune response in UC progression. The beneficial effects of melatonin in dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) and 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) colitis models have been illustrated, but its role in the oxazolone (Oxa)-induced colitis model (driven by type 2 immune response) remains relatively unknown. We investigated the relationship between melatonin concentration and the severity of UC, revealing a significantly negative correlation. Subsequently, we investigated the effects of melatonin in Oxa-induced colitis mice and the potential underlying mechanisms. Administration of melatonin significantly counteracted body weight loss, colon shortening, and neutrophil infiltration in Oxa-induced colitis mice. Melatonin treatment mitigated Oxa-induced colitis by suppressing type 2 immune response. In addition, melatonin attenuated intestinal permeability by enhancing the expression of ZO-1 and occludin in colitis mice. Interestingly, the protective effect of melatonin was abolished when the mice were co-housed, indicating that the regulation of gut microbiota by melatonin was critical in alleviating Oxa-induced colitis. Subsequently, 16S rRNA sequencing was performed to explore the microbiota composition. Decreased richness and diversity of intestinal microbiota at the operational taxonomic unit (OTU) level resulted from melatonin treatment. Melatonin also elevated the abundance of Bifidobacterium , a well-known probiotic, and reduced proportions of several harmful bacterial genera, such as Desulfovibrio , Peptococcaceae, and Lachnospiraceae. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) was used to explore the role of microbiota in the function of melatonin in Oxa-induced colitis. Microbiota transplantation from melatonin-treated mice alleviated Oxa-induced colitis, suggesting that the microbiome participates in the relief of Oxa-induced colitis by melatonin. Our findings demonstrate that melatonin ameliorates Oxa-induced colitis in a microbiota-dependent manner, suggesting the therapeutic potential of melatonin in treating type 2 immunity-associated UC.

    Kurzfassung: Renalase, a novel secretory flavoprotein with amine oxidase activity, is secreted into the blood by the kidneys and is hypothesized to participate in blood pressure (BP) regulation. We investigated the associations of renalase with BP and the risk of hypertension by examining renalase single nucleopeptide polymorphism (SNPs), serum renalase levels, and renal expression of renalase in humans. Methods ① Subjects ( n = 514) from the original Baoji Salt-Sensitive Study cohort were genotyped to investigate the association of renalase SNPs with longitudinal BP changes and the risk of hypertension during 14 years of follow-up. ② Two thousand three hundred and ninety two participants from the Hanzhong Adolescent Hypertension Study cohort were used to examine the association of serum renalase levels with hypertension. Renalase expression in renal biopsy specimens from 193 patients were measured by immunohistochemistry. ③ Renalase expression was compared in hypertensive vs. normotensive patients. Results ① SNP rs7922058 was associated with 14-year change in systolic BP, and rs10887800, rs796945, rs1935582, rs2296545, and rs2576178 were significantly associated with 14-year change in diastolic BP while rs1935582 and rs2576178 were associated with mean arterial pressure change over 14 years. In addition, SNPs rs796945, rs1935582, and rs2576178 were significantly associated with hypertension incidence. Gene-based analysis found that renalase gene was significantly associated with hypertension incidence over 14-year follow-up after adjustment for multiple measurements. ② Hypertensive subjects had higher serum renalase levels than normotensive subjects (27.2 ± 0.4 vs. 25.1 ± 0.2 μg/mL). Serum renalase levels and BPs showed a linear correlation. In addition, serum renalase was significantly associated with the risk of hypertension [ OR = 1.018 (1.006–1.030)]. ③ The expression of renalase in human renal biopsy specimens significantly decreased in hypertensive patients compared to non-hypertensive patients (0.030 ± 0.001 vs. 0.038 ± 0.004). Conclusions These findings indicate that renalase may play an important role in BP progression and development of hypertension.
