Mucosa‐associated lymphoid tissue 1 (Malt1) regulates immune cell function by mediating the activation of nuclear factor κB (NF‐κB) signaling through both its adaptor and proteolytic function. Malt1 is also a target of its own protease activity and this self‐cleavage further contributes to NF‐κB activity. Until now, the functional distinction between Malt1 self‐cleavage and its general protease function in regulating NF‐κB signaling and immune activation remained unclear. Here we demonstrate, using a new mouse model, the importance of Malt1 self‐cleavage in regulating expression of NF‐κB target genes and subsequent T cell activation. Significantly, we further establish that Treg homeostasis is critically linked to Malt1 function via a Treg intrinsic and extrinsic mechanism. TCR‐mediated Malt1 proteolytic activity and self‐cleavage was found to drive Il2 expression in conventional CD4+ T cells, thereby regulating Il2 availability for Treg homeostasis. Remarkably, the loss of Malt1‐mediated self‐cleavage alone was sufficient to cause a significant Treg deficit resulting in increased anti‐tumor immune reactivity without associated autoimmunity complications. These results establish for the first time that inhibition of MALT1 proteolytic activity could be a viable therapeutic strategy to augment anti‐tumor immunity. 相似文献

TAK1 (MAP3K7) mediation of the IκB kinase (IKK) complex?nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) pathway is crucial for the activation of immune response and to perpetuate inflammation. Although progress has been made to understand TAK1 function in the B‐cell receptor (BCR) signaling, the physiological roles of TAK1 in B‐cell development, particularly in the bone marrow (BM), remain elusive. Previous studies suggested that the IKK complex is required for the development of immunoglobulin light chain λ‐positive B cells, but not for receptor editing. In contrast, NF‐κB activity is suggested to be involved in the regulation of receptor editing. Thus, NF‐κB signaling in early B‐cell development is yet to be fully characterized. Therefore, we addressed the role of TAK1 in early B‐cell development. TAK1‐deficient mice showed significant reduction of BM Igλ‐positive B‐cell numbers without any alteration in the BCR editing. Furthermore, the expression of survival factor Bcl‐2 was reduced in TAK1‐deficient BM B cells as assessed by microarray and quantitative PCR analyses. Ex vivo over‐expression of exogenous Bcl‐2 enhanced the survival of TAK1‐deficient Igλ‐positive B cells. TAK1–IKK–NF‐κB signaling contributes to the survival of λ‐chain‐positive B cells through NF‐κB‐dependent anti‐apoptotic Bcl‐2 expression. 相似文献

Formation of the splenic marginal zone (MZ) depends on the alternative NF‐κB signaling pathway. Recently, we reported that unrestricted activation of this pathway in NF‐κB2/p100‐deficient (p100?/?) knock‐in mice alters the phenotype of MZ stroma and B cells. Here, we show that lack of the p100 inhibitor resulted in an expansion of both MZ B and peritoneal B‐1 cells. However, these cells failed to generate proliferating blasts in response to T‐cell‐independent type 2 (TI‐2) Ags, correlating with dampened IgM and absent IgG3 responses. This phenotype was in part due to increased activity of the NF‐κB subunit RelB. Moreover, p100?/?→B6 BM chimeras were more susceptible to infection by encapsulated Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria, pathogens that induce TI‐2 responses. In contrast to the TI‐2 defect, p100 deficiency did not impair immune responses to the TI‐1 Ag LPS and p100?/? MZ B cells showed normal Ag transportation into B‐cell follicles. Furthermore, p100?/? MZ B and B‐1 cells failed to respond to TI‐2 Ags in the presence of WT accessory cells. Thus, NF‐κB2/p100 deficiency caused a predominant B‐cell‐intrinsic TI‐2 defect that could largely be attributed to impaired proliferation of plasmablasts. Importantly, p100 was also necessary for efficient defense against clinically relevant TI‐2 pathogens. 相似文献

AAV‐based gene transfer protocols have shown remarkable success when directed to immune‐privileged sites such as for retinal disorders like Lebers congenital amaurosis. In contrast, AAV‐mediated gene transfer into liver or muscle tissue for diseases such as hemophilia B, α1 anti‐trypsin deficiency and muscular dystrophy has demonstrated a decline in gene transfer efficacy over time. It is now known that in humans, AAV triggers specific pathways that recruit immune sensors. These factors initiate an immediate reaction against either the viral capsid or the vector encoded protein as part of innate immune response or to produce a more specific adaptive response that generates immunological memory. The vector‐transduced cells are then rapidly destroyed due to this immune activation. However, unlike other viral vectors, AAV is not immunogenic in murine models. Its immunogenicity becomes apparent only in large animal models and human subjects. Moreover, humans are natural hosts to AAV and exhibit a high seroprevalence against AAV vectors. This limits the widespread application of AAV vectors into patients with pre‐existing neutralising antibodies or memory T cells. To address these issues, various strategies are being tested. Alternate serotype vectors (AAV1‐10), efficient expression cassettes, specific tissue targeting, immune‐suppression and engineered capsid variants are some approaches proposed to minimise this immune stimulation. In this review, we have summarised the nature of the immune response documented against AAV in various pre‐clinical and clinical settings and have further discussed the strategies to evade them.

In many types of tumours, especially pancreatic adenocarcinoma, miR‐301a is over‐expressed. This over‐expression results in negative regulation of the target gene of miR‐301a, the nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) repressing factor (NKRF), increasing the activation of NF‐κB and production of NF‐κB‐responsive pro‐inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin‐8, interferon‐β, nitric oxide synthase 2A and cytochrome oxidase subunit 2 (COX‐2). However, in immune cells, mechanisms that regulate miR‐301a have not been reported. Similar to tumour cells, Toll‐like receptor (TLR) ‐activated macrophages produce NF‐κB‐responsive pro‐inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, it is of considerable interest to determine whether miR‐301a regulates the secretion of cytokines by immune cells. In the present study, we demonstrate that the expression of miR‐301a was decreased in TLR‐triggered macrophages. Through targeting NKRF, miR‐301a affected the activity of NF‐κB and the expression of pro‐inflammatory genes downstream of NF‐κB such as COX‐2, prostaglandin E2 and interleukin‐6. In addition, when lipopolysaccharide‐treated macrophages were simultaneously stimulated with trichostatin A, an inhibitor of histone deacetylases, the expression of miR‐301a increased, whereas NKRF and pro‐inflammatory cytokine expression decreased. However, further investigation revealed that there was no correlation between the induction of miR‐301a and the inhibitory effect of trichostatin A on lipopolysaccharide‐induced gene expression in macrophages. In summary, our study indicates a new mechanism by which miR‐301a regulates inflammatory cytokine expression in macrophages, which may clarify the regulatory role of microRNAs in immune‐mediated inflammatory responses. 相似文献

Although mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) possess the capacity to modulate immune responses, little is known about the mechanisms that underpin these processes. In this study, we show that immunosupression is mediated by activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) in human MSCs. This pathway is activated by TNF‐α that is generated following TCR stimulation of T cells. Inhibition of NF‐κB through silencing of IκB kinase β or the TNF‐α receptor abolishes the immunosuppressive capacity of MSCs. Our data also indicate that MSC‐associated NF‐κB activation primarily leads to inhibition of T‐cell proliferation with little effect on expression of the activation markers CD69 and CD25. Thus, our data support the hypothesis that the TNF‐α/NF‐κB signalling pathway is required for the initial priming of immunosuppressive function in human MSCs. Interestingly, drugs that interfere with NF‐κB activation significantly antagonise the immunoregulatory effect of MSCs, which could have important implications for immunosuppression regimens in the clinic. 相似文献

Successful resolution of inflammation requires inflammatory cells such as neutrophils to undergo apoptosis prior to non‐inflammatory phagocytosis by professional phagocytes. Recently, cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors (e.g. R‐roscovitine) have been shown to induce neutrophil apoptosis and enhance the resolution of inflammation. Interestingly, NF‐κB and MAPK pathways and key endogenous survival proteins (typified by Mcl‐1) are involved in the regulation of neutrophil apoptosis and, in cancer‐cell lines, have been implicated as possible targets of CDK inhibitors. Here, we demonstrate that R‐roscovitine over‐rides TNF‐α and LPS‐induced survival (determined by morphological examination and binding of fluorescently labelled annexin‐V) of isolated peripheral blood neutrophils. This effect did not appear to be mediated via effects on early markers of neutrophil activation (e.g. surface marker expression, shape change, aggregation and superoxide anion generation), by direct inhibition of NF‐κB activation (assessed by cytoplasmic IκBα proteolysis and NF‐κB p65 subunit translocation) and ERK activation (determined by specific ERK phosphorylation) but due to down‐regulation (at protein and mRNA level) of the survival protein Mcl‐1 but not the pro‐apoptotic bcl‐2 homologue Bim. These findings suggest that key endogenous survival proteins may be the targets of CDK inhibitors and consequently may be of critical importance in the resolution of inflammation. 相似文献

To explore whether bacterial secreted 4‐hydroxy‐2‐alkylquinolines (HAQs) can regulate host innate immune responses, we used the extracts of bacterial culture supernatants from a wild‐type (PA14) and two mutants of Pseudomonas aeruginosa that have defects in making HAQs. Surprisingly, the extract of supernatants from the P. aeruginosa pqsA mutant that does not make HAQs showed strong stimulating activity for the production of innate cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor‐α and interleukin‐6 in the J774A.1 mouse monocyte/macrophage cell line, whereas the extract from the wild‐type did not. The addition of 4‐hydroxy‐2‐heptylquinoline (HHQ) or 2‐heptyl‐3,4‐dihydroxyquinoline (PQS, Pseudomonas quinolone signal) to mammalian cell culture media abolished this stimulating activity of the extracts of supernatants from the pqsA mutant on the expression of innate cytokines in J774A.1 cells and in the primary bronchoalveolar lavage cells from C57BL/6 mice, suggesting that HHQ and PQS can suppress the host innate immune responses. The pqsA mutant showed reduced dissemination in the lung tissue compared with the wild‐type strain in a mouse in vivo intranasal infection model, suggesting that HHQ and PQS may play a role in the pathogenicity of P. aeruginosa. HHQ and PQS reduced the nuclear factor‐κB (NF‐κB) binding to its binding sites and the expression of NF‐κB target genes, and PQS delayed inhibitor of κB degradation, indicating that the effect of HHQ and PQS was mediated through the NF‐κB pathway. Our results suggest that HHQ and PQS produced by P. aeruginosa actively suppress host innate immune responses. 相似文献
