Considerable evidence show that many bacterial components can activate dendritic cells (DCs). Our previous report showed that multiple doses of DCs matured with Listeria monocytogenes led to tumor regression whereas multiple doses of CpG-matured DCs affected tumor reversely. Objective: To assess a combined pattern of DC vaccination proposed by a mathematical model for tumor regression. Method: WEHI164 cells were inoculated subcutaneously in the right flank of BALB/c mice. Bone marrow-derived DCs were matured by Listeria monocytogenes and CpG motifs. DCs were injected using specific patterns and doses predicted by mathematical modeling. Effector cell-mediated cytotoxicity, gene expression of T cell-related transcription factors, as well as tumor growth and survival rate, were assessed in different groups. Results: Our study indicated that the proposed mathematical model could simulate the tumor and immune system interaction, and it was verified by decreasing tumor size in the List+CpG group. However, comparing the effect of different treatment modalities on Th1/Treg transcription factor expression or cytotoxic responses revealed no advantage for combined therapy over other treatment modalities. Conclusions: These results suggest that finding new combinations of DC vaccines for the treatment of tumors will be promising in the future. The results of this study support the mathematical modelling for DC vaccine design. However, some parameters in this model must be modified to provide a more optimized therapy approach.}, keywords = {Cancer vaccines,CpG,Dendritic Cells,Listeria monocytogenes,Mathematical Model}, url = {https://iji.sums.ac.ir/article_48257.html}, eprint = {https://iji.sums.ac.ir/article_48257_93803012f585b515b2ad0e32a601db7c.pdf} } @article { author = {Sun, Haibai and Liu, Jiaqing and Feng, Ranran and Wang, Chunyan and Li, Yuming and Wang, Xiao}, title = {Follicular Helper T Cells in Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Retrospective Study}, journal = {Iranian Journal of Immunology}, volume = {19}, number = {1}, pages = {18-26}, year = {2022}, publisher = {Shiraz Institute for Cancer Research}, issn = {1735-1383}, eissn = {1735-367X}, doi = {10.22034/iji.2022.90588.2017}, abstract = {Background: Follicular helper T lymphocyte (Tfh) promotes antibody production by B lymphocytes in various diseases, including Pulmonary Tuberculosis (PTB).

Methods: 54 newly diagnosed smear-positive PTB, 27 people with latent tuberculosis (LTB) and 27 healthy controls (HC) were enrolled. The PTB group was further divided based on the range of lung field involved (focus number>=3, PTB-X3; <3, PTB-X2). After 6-month therapy, sputum smear (positive, PTB-SP; negative, PTB-SN) or imaging examinations (lesion reduction significant, PTB-os; insignificant, PTB-s) were used to evaluate the conditions of PTB patients. Blood samples were collected from PTB group at month six. CD4+CXCR5+Tfh, and its subsets, CD4+CXCR5+PD-1+Tfh and CD4+CXCR5+ICOS+Tfh in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were detected. Serum IL-21 concentrations were measured. Results: The frequencies of CD4+CXCR5+Tfh, CD4+CXCR5+ICOS+Tfh and CD4+CXCR5+PD-1+Tfh were higher in PTB group than in HC.

Methods: The SEB or PBS was administered intravenously to pregnant rats on the embryo-day 16.

Quantitative PCR, western blot, ELISA and MeDIP-qPCR were applied to determine the levels of the splenic IFN-γ or IL-4 mRNAs, their protein levels, and methylation status, respectively. Results: Prenatal administration of the SEB in pregnant rats decreased the levels of the splenic IFN-γ and IL-4 proteins in neonates, but increased their mRNA levels.

P2X7R, GSDMD, and GSDMD-N expressions also increased in the LPS group. LPS induced macrophage activation in vivo. NLRP3, ASC, P2X7R, and caspase-1 expressions in vitro promoted. ELISA confirmed that the IL-1β and IL-18 levels repressed in the BZATP (P2X7R agonist) group, while the trend was opposite in the A438079 (P2X7R inhibitor) group.

Methods: This retrospective study included 88 patients with LN, 51 SLE patients without kidney involvement, 79 patients with primary chronic nephritis (CN), and 52 healthy controls (HC). The differences among these four groups and diagnostic value of NLR for patients with LN were evaluated. Results: The NLR of patients with LN before treatment was significantly higher than that of the other three groups. NLR positively correlated with C-reactive protein (CRP), complement 3(C3), C4, and serum creatinine (SCr) (CRP: r=0.337, p=0.007; C3: r=0.222, p=0.042; C4: r=0.230, p=0.035; SCr: r=0.408, p <0.0001) but negatively correlated with total serum IgG (r=-0.226, p=0.041). The level of NLR increased with the severity of renal dysfunction NLR (area under the curve: 0.785, 95% CI: 0.708-0.862) was useful for the diagnosis of LN, and its optimal cut-off value was 5.44 (sensitivity: 65.9%, specificity: 86.3%).

Methods: WEHI-3 leukemia cells were incubated with dual PI3K and mTOR inhibitor BEZ235 and TLR7/8 agonist R848 for 48 hrs. Firstly, cell viability was assessed by MTT method. The semi-quantitative relative mRNA expression of Galectin-9 (Gal-9), PD-L1, PVR, and STAT3 was assessed according to HPRT as a housekeeping gene. Finally, the protein expression of phosphorylated STAT3 was evaluated by western blotting analysis. Results: WEHI-3 cells showed growth inhibition following treatment with BEZ235 and R848 whose combination exerted more proliferation arrest. The mRNA expression of Gal-9, PD-L1 and PVR immune checkpoint molecules significantly reduced in treated cells with BEZ235 and R848.

Patients in each group were randomly distributed into three subgroups: G1 with RAI ablation only, G2 treated with omega-3 for 30 days before RAI ablation, and G3 treated with omega-3 for 30 days after RAI ablation.
