文摘BACKGROUND Immunological dysfunction-induced low-grade inflammation is regarded as one of the predominant pathogenetic mechanisms in post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome(PI-IBS).γδT cells play a crucial role in innate and adaptive immunity.Adenosine receptors expressed on the surface ofγδT cells participate in intestinal inflammation and immunity regulation.AIM To investigate the role ofγδT cell regulated by adenosine 2A receptor(A2AR)in PI-IBS.METHODS The PI-IBS mouse model has been established with Trichinella spiralis(T.spiralis)infection.The intestinal A2AR and A2AR inγδT cells were detected by immunohistochemistry,and the inflammatory cytokines were measured by western blot.The role of A2AR on the isolatedγδT cells,including proliferation,apoptosis,and cytokine production,were evaluated in vitro.Their A2AR expression was measured by western blot and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).The animals were administered with A2AR agonist,or A2AR antagonist.Besides,γδT cells were also injected back into the animals,and the parameters described above were examined,as well as the clinical features.Furthermore,the A2AR-associated signaling pathway molecules were assessed by western blot and RT-PCR.RESULTS PI-IBS mice exhibited elevated ATP content and A2AR expression(P<0.05),and suppression of A2AR enhanced PI-IBS clinical characteristics,indicated by the abdominal withdrawal reflex and colon transportation test.PI-IBS was associated with an increase in intestinal T cells,and cytokine levels of interleukin-1(IL-1),IL-6,IL-17A,and interferon-α(IFN-α).Also,γδT cells expressed A2AR in vitro and generated IL-1,IL-6,IL-17A,and IFN-α,which can be controlled by A2AR agonist and antagonist.Mechanistic studies demonstrated that the A2AR antagonist improved the function ofγδT cells through the PKA/CREB/NF-κB signaling pathway.CONCLUSION Our results revealed that A2AR contributes to the facilitation of PI-IBS by regulating the function ofγδT cells via the PKA/CREB/NF-κB signaling pathway.

文摘Objective:This study aimed to compare the efficacy of anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T cells(CAR-T cells)versus chemotherapy plus donor lymphocyte infusion(chemo-DLI)for treating relapsed CD 19-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL)after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT).Methods:Clinical data of 43 patients with B-ALL who relapsed after allo-HSCT were retrospectively analyzed.Twenty-two patients were treated with CAR-T cells(CAR-T group),and 21 with chemotherapy plus DLI(chemo-DLI group).The complete remission(CR)and minimal residual disease(MRD)-negative CR rates,leukemia-free survival(LFS)rate,overall survival(OS)rate,and incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD),cytokine release syndrome(CRS)and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome(ICANS)were compared between the two groups.Results:The CR and MRD-negative CR rates in the CAR-T group(77.3%and 61.5%)were significantly higher than those in the chemo-DLI group(38.1%and 23.8%)(P=0.008 and P=0.003).The 1-and 2-year LFS rates in the CAR-T group were superior to those in the chemo-DLI group:54.5%and 50.0%vs.9.5%and 4.8%(P=0.0001 and P=0.00004).The 1-and 2-year OS rates in the CAR-T versus chemo-DLI group were 59.1%and 54.5%vs.19%and 9.5%(P=0.011 and P=0.003).Six patients(28.6%)with grade 2-4 aGVHD were identified in the chemo-DLI group.Two patients(9.1%)in the CAR-T group developed grade 1-2 aGVHD.Nineteen patients(86.4%)developed CRS in the CAR-T group,comprising grade 1-2 CRS in 13 patients(59.1%)and grade 3 CRS in 6 patients(27.3%).Two patients(9.1%)developed grade 1-2 ICANS.Conclusion:Donor-derived anti-CD19 CAR-T-cell therapy may be better,safer,and more effective than chemo-DLI for B-ALL patients who relapse after allo-HSCT.

文摘T cells modified with chimeric antigen receptor are an attractive strategy to treat Epstein-Barr virus（EBV） associated malignancies.The EBV latent membrane protein 1（LMP1） is a 66-KD integral membrane protein encoded by EBV that consists of transmembrane-spanning loops.Previously,we have identified a functional signal chain variable fragment（scFv） that specifically recognizes LMP1 through phage library screening.Here,we constructed a LMP1 specific chimeric antigen receptor containing anti-LMP1 scFv,the CD28 signalling domain,and the CD3ζchain（HELA/CAR）.We tested its functional ability to target LMP1 positive nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.HELA/CAR cells were efficiently generated using lentivirus vector encoding the LMP1-specific chimeric antigen receptor to infect activated human CD3＋ T cells.The HELA/CAR T cells displayed LMP1 specific cytolytic action and produced IFN-γ and IL-2 in response to nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells overexpressing LMP1.To demonstrate in vivo anti-tumor activity,we tested the HELA/CAR T cells in a xenograft model using an LMP1 overexpressing tumor.Intratumoral injection of anti-LMP1 HELA/CAR-T cells significantly reduced tumor growth in vivo.These results show that targeting LMP1 using HELA/CAR cells could represent an alternative therapeutic approach for patients with EBV-positive cancers.

文摘Cytokine release syndrome(CRS)is a major obstacle to the widespread clinical application of chimeric antigen receptor(CAR)T cell therapies.CRS can also be induced by infections(such as SARS-CoV-2),drugs(such as therapeutic antibodies),and some autoimmune diseases.Myeloid-derived macrophages play key roles in the pathogenesis of CRS,and participate in the production and release of the core CRS cytokines,including interleukin(IL)-1,IL-6,and interferon-γ.In this review,we summarize the roles of macrophages in CRS and discuss new developments in macrophage activation and the related mechanisms of cytokine regulation in CRS.
文摘Gastric cancer,a prevalent malignancy worldwide,ranks sixth in terms of frequency and third in fatality,causing over a million new cases and 769000 annual deaths.Predominant in Eastern Europe and Eastern Asia,risk factors include family medical history,dietary habits,tobacco use,Helicobacter pylori,and Epstein-Barr virus infections.Unfortunately,gastric cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage,leading to a grim prognosis,with a 5-year overall survival rate below 5%.Surgical intervention,particularly with D2 Lymphadenectomy,is the mainstay for early-stage cases but offers limited success.For advanced cases,the National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommends chemotherapy,radiation,and targeted therapy.Emerging immunotherapy presents promise,especially for unresectable or metastatic cases,with strategies like immune checkpoint inhibitors,tumor vaccines,adoptive immunotherapy,and nonspecific immunomodulators.In this Editorial,with regards to the article“Advances and key focus areas in gastric cancer immunotherapy:A comprehensive scientometric and clinical trial review”,we address the advances in the field of immunotherapy in gastric cancer and its future prospects.
文摘过继性T细胞疗法(adoptive T cell therapy,ACT)是一种高度个性化的抗肿瘤治疗方法,临床研究正在迅速发展。研究表明,ACT疗法可以通过增加T细胞数量,增强对肿瘤组织的特异性和反应性,从而克服肿瘤免疫缺陷抑制的产生。ACT疗法目前有3种主要模式:肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞(TILs)、嵌合抗原受体T细胞(CAR-T)和T细胞受体工程化T细胞(TCR-T)治疗。本文对ACT疗法的分类及研究进展进行综述,包括TILs、CAR-T、TCR-T以及基于类器官共培养的过继性T淋巴细胞免疫治疗,探讨ACT作为头颈部鳞癌治疗方式的应用前景。
