Interleukin-1β exacerbates disease and is a potential therapeutic target to reduce pulmonary inflammation during severe influenza A virus infection.

ABSTRACT: Hyperinflammatory responses including the production of NLRP3-dependent interleukin (IL)-1β is a characteristic feature of severe and fatal influenza A virus (IAV) infections. The NLRP3 inflammasome has been shown to play a temporal role during severe IAV immune responses, with early protective and later detrimental responses. However, the specific contribution of IL-1β in modulating IAV disease in vivo is currently not well defined. Here, we identified that activation of NLRP3-dependent IL-1β responses occurs rapidly following HKx31 H3N2 infection, prior to the onset of severe IAV disease. Mature IL-1β was detectable in vivo in both hemopoietic and nonhemopoietic cells. Significantly, therapeutic inhibition of IL-1β in the airways with intranasal anti-IL-1β antibody treatment from day 3 postinfection, corresponding to the onset of clinical signs of disease, significantly prolonged survival and reduced inflammation in the airways. Importantly, early targeting of IL-1β from day 1 postinfection also improved survival. Together, these studies specifically define a role for IL-1β in contributing to the development of hyperinflammation and disease and indicate that targeting IL-1β is a potential therapeutic strategy for severe IAV infections.

Interleukin-1β is a potential therapeutic target for periodontitis: a narrative review.

Project description:Interleukin(IL)-1β, a pro-inflammatory cytokine, was elevated and participates in periodontitis. Not only the link between IL-1β and periodontitis was proved by clinical evidence, but also the increased IL-1β triggers a series of inflammatory reactions and promotes bone resorption. Currently, IL-1β blockage has been therapeutic strategies for autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes, gout and type II diabetes mellitus. It is speculated that IL-1β be a potential therapeutic target for periodontitis. The review focuses on the production, mechanism, present treatments and future potential strategies for IL-1β in periodontitis.

BCL6 modulates tissue neutrophil survival and exacerbates pulmonary inflammation following influenza virus infection.

Project description:Neutrophils are vital for antimicrobial defense; however, their role during viral infection is less clear. Furthermore, the molecular regulation of neutrophil fate and function at the viral infected sites is largely elusive. Here we report that BCL6 deficiency in myeloid cells exhibited drastically enhanced host resistance to severe influenza A virus (IAV) infection. In contrast to the notion that BCL6 functions to suppress innate inflammation, we find that myeloid BCL6 deficiency diminished lung inflammation without affecting viral loads. Using a series of Cre-transgenic, reporter, and knockout mouse lines, we demonstrate that BCL6 deficiency in neutrophils, but not in monocytes or lung macrophages, attenuated host inflammation and morbidity following IAV infection. Mechanistically, BCL6 bound to the neutrophil gene loci involved in cellular apoptosis in cells specifically at the site of infection. As such, BCL6 disruption resulted in increased expression of apoptotic genes in neutrophils in the respiratory tract, but not in the circulation or bone marrow. Consequently, BCL6 deficiency promoted tissue neutrophil apoptosis. Partial neutrophil depletion led to diminished pulmonary inflammation and decreased host morbidity. Our results reveal a previously unappreciated role of BCL6 in modulating neutrophil apoptosis at the site of infection for the regulation of host disease development following viral infection. Furthermore, our studies indicate that tissue-specific regulation of neutrophil survival modulates host inflammation and tissue immunopathology during acute respiratory viral infection.

BCL6 modulates tissue neutrophil survival and exacerbates pulmonary inflammation following influenza infection

Project description:Epidemics of influenza virus are of great challenges to the public concern. The lung inflammation and injury caused by excessive inflammatory cell infiltration into the lungs and overproduction of inflammatory mediators are major consequences during influenza virus infection. Neutrophils are vital for anti-microbial defense. However, the roles of neutrophils during viral infections are less clear. Furthermore, the molecular regulation of neutrophil fate and function at the viral infected sites is largely elusive. We found that BCL6 deficiency in neutrophils, but not in monocytes nor lung macrophages, attenuated host inflammation and morbidity following influenza infection. Mechanistically, BCL6 bound to the neutrophil gene loci involved in cellular apoptosis specifically at the site of infection. As such, BCL6 disruption resulted in increased expression of apoptotic genes in neutrophils in the respiratory tract, but not in the circulation nor bone marrow. Consequently, BCL6 deficiency promoted tissue neutrophil apoptosis. Our results have revealed a previously unappreciated role of BCL6 in modulating neutrophil apoptosis at the site of infection for the regulation of host disease development following viral infection.

Clusterin exacerbates interleukin-1β-induced inflammation via suppressing PI3K/Akt pathway in human fibroblast-like synoviocytes of knee osteoarthritis

Project description:This study aimed to examine, a multifaceted chaperon-like protein exerting anti-inflammatory action, clusterin (CLU), mRNA and protein levels in the systemic and local joint environment of knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients and to determine whether CLU inhibited interleukin (IL)-1β-induced inflammation in knee OA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) through modulating phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway. CLU protein and mRNA expressions in the synovium and its protein levels in plasma and synovial fluid of knee OA patients were measured using immunohistochemistry, real-time PCR, and ELISA, respectively. Anti-inflammatory effect of CLU was further elucidated in knee OA FLSs treated with IL-1β in the absence or presence of CLU, CLU alone, or PI3K inhibitor (LY294002) along with IL-1β and CLU. In a clinical study, compared with knee OA patients without synovitis, CLU protein and mRNA were expressed in the synovium of knee OA patients with synovitis, especially those with high-grade, consistent with analyses of its plasma and synovial fluid levels. CLU mRNA and protein levels were both associated with synovitis severity. An in vitro study uncovered that CLU significantly alleviated IL-1β-induced overproduction of nitric oxide and IL-6 in knee OA FLSs. Furthermore, CLU significantly attenuated inflammation and extracellular matrix degradation induced by IL-1β via down-regulating expressions of IL-6, nuclear factor kappa B, and matrix metalloproteinase-13. Mechanistically, CLU significantly impeded IL-1β-induced Akt phosphorylation in knee OA FLSs, in line with addition of LY294002 along with IL-1β and CLU. These findings suggest that CLU may have potential as a novel therapeutic target for synovitis and cartilage destruction in knee OA.

Targeting interleukin-1β and inflammation in lung cancer.

Project description:Inflammation is a process that protects organs against various potentially harmful stimuli and enables repair. Dysregulated inflammation, however, damages tissues and leads to disease, including cancer. Cancer-related inflammation is characterized by cytokine production, leukocyte infiltration, angiogenesis, and tissue remodeling-all critical processes in modulating the tumor microenvironment (TME). The TME is known to play a key role in tumor progression, and targeting its immune component to achieve a better anti-tumor response is the basis of immunotherapy. Despite the critical role cytokines play in the TME and tumor progression, there is currently only one therapy approved by the FDA that directly involves cytokine signaling: human recombinant interleukin-2 protein, aldesleukin. The recent Canakinumab Anti-inflammatory Thrombosis Outcomes Study (CANTOS) trial evaluated the use of anti-interleukin-1β therapy in atherosclerotic disease; however, it also revealed interleukin-1β (IL-1β) blockade with canakinumab led to a significantly lower incidence of lung cancer. This has opened a promising new avenue for lung cancer therapy, and strategies using anti-IL-1β therapy alone or in combination with chemotherapy and/or immune checkpoint blockade are currently being evaluated in several clinical trials.

SLC38A6 expression in macrophages exacerbates pulmonary inflammation.

Project description:Pulmonary inflammation involves complex changes of the immune cells, in which macrophages play important roles and their function might be influenced by metabolism. Slc38a6 acts as a carrier of nutrient for macrophages (Mφ) to exert the function. In this study, pneumonia patient blood was found up-regulated SLC38A6 expression, which correlated with monocytes number and white blood cell number. The similar result was also shown in LPS induced sepsis mice. To reveal the key role of Slc38a6, we used systemic and conditional knock-out mice. Either systemic or LyzCRE specific knock-out could alleviate the severity of sepsis mice, reduce the proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α and IL-1β expression in serum and decrease the monocytes number in bronchial alveolar lavage and peritoneal lavage via flow cytometry. In order to reveal the signal of up-regulated Slc38a6, the Tlr4 signal inhibitor TAK242 and TLR4 knock-out mice were used. By blocking Tlr4 signal in macrophages via TAK242, the expression of Slc38a6 was down-regulated synchronously, and the same results were also found in Tlr4 knock-out macrophages. However, in the overexpressed Slc38a6 macrophages, blocking Tlr4 signal via TAK242, 20% of the mRNA expression of IL-1β still could be expressed, indicating that up-regulated Slc38a6 participates in IL-1β expression process. Collectively, it is the first time showed that an amino acid transporter SLC38A6 up-regulated in monocytes/macrophages promotes activation in pulmonary inflammation. SLC38A6 might be a promising target molecule for pulmonary inflammation treatment.

Interleukin-3 amplifies acute inflammation and is a potential therapeutic target in sepsis.

Project description:Sepsis is a frequently fatal condition characterized by an uncontrolled and harmful host reaction to microbial infection. Despite the prevalence and severity of sepsis, we lack a fundamental grasp of its pathophysiology. Here we report that the cytokine interleukin-3 (IL-3) potentiates inflammation in sepsis. Using a mouse model of abdominal sepsis, we showed that innate response activator B cells produce IL-3, which induces myelopoiesis of Ly-6C(high) monocytes and neutrophils and fuels a cytokine storm. IL-3 deficiency protects mice against sepsis. In humans with sepsis, high plasma IL-3 levels are associated with high mortality even after adjusting for prognostic indicators. This study deepens our understanding of immune activation, identifies IL-3 as an orchestrator of emergency myelopoiesis, and reveals a new therapeutic target for treating sepsis.

Interleukin-26 potentiates type 2 skin inflammation in presence of interleukin-1β

Project description:Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a debilitating inflammatory skin disorder. Biologics targeting the IL-4/IL-13 axis are effective in AD, but there is still a large proportion of patients that do not respond to IL-4R blockade. Further exploration of potentially pathogenic T cell-derived cytokines in AD may lead to new effective treatments. This study aimed to investigate the downstream effects of IL-26 on skin in the context of type 2 skin inflammation. We found that IL-26 alone exhibited limited inflammatory activity in skin. However, in presence of IL-1β, IL-26 potentiated the secretion of TSLP, CXCL1 and CCL20 from human epidermis through JAK/STAT signaling. Moreover, in an in vivo AD-like skin inflammation model, IL-26 exacerbated skin pathology and locally increased type 2 cytokines, most notably of Il13 in skin T helper cells. Neutralization of IL-1β abrogated IL-26-mediated effects, indicating that the presence of IL-1β is required for full IL-26 downstream action in vivo. These findings suggest that the presence of IL-1β enables IL-26 to be a key amplifier of inflammation in the skin. As such, IL-26 may contribute to the development and pathogenesis of inflammatory skin disorders such as AD.

Interleukin 1β Mediates Intestinal Inflammation in Mice and Patients With Interleukin 10 Receptor Deficiency.

Project description:Interleukin 10 receptor (IL10R)-deficient mice develop spontaneous colitis and, similarly, patients with loss-of-function mutations in IL10R develop severe infant-onset inflammatory bowel disease. Loss of IL10R signaling in mouse and human macrophages is associated with increased production of interleukin 1β. We demonstrated that innate immune production of IL1β mediates colitis in IL10R-deficient mice. Transfer of Il1r1-/- CD4+ T cells into Rag1-/-/Il10rb-/- mice reduced the severity of their colitis (compared to mice that received CD4+ T cells that express IL1R), accompanied by decreased production of interferon gamma, tumor necrosis factor-α, and IL17A. In macrophages from mice without disruption of IL10R signaling or from healthy humans (controls), incubation with IL10 reduced canonical activation of the inflammasome and production of IL1β through transcriptional and post-translational regulation of NLRP3. Lipopolysaccharide and adenosine triphosphate stimulation of macrophages from Il10rb-/- mice or IL10R-deficient patients resulted in increased production of IL1β. Moreover, in human IL10R-deficient macrophages, lipopolysaccharide stimulation alone triggered IL1β secretion via non-canonical, caspase 8-dependent activation of the inflammasome. We treated 2 IL10R-deficient patients with severe and treatment-refractory infant-onset inflammatory bowel disease with the IL1-receptor antagonist anakinra. Both patients had marked clinical, endoscopic, and histologic responses after 4-7 weeks. This treatment served as successful bridge to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in 1 patient. Our findings indicate that loss of IL10 signaling leads to intestinal inflammation, at least in part, through increased production of IL1 by innate immune cells, leading to activation of CD4+ T cells. Agents that block IL1 signaling might be used to treat patients with inflammatory bowel disease resulting from IL10R deficiency.

DUSP5 suppresses interleukin-1β-induced chondrocyte inflammation and ameliorates osteoarthritis in rats.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative joint disease characterized by deterioration of articular cartilage. Dual specificity phosphatase 5 (DUSP5), a member of the DUSP subfamily, is known to regulate cellular inflammation. Here, we studied the relationship between DUSP5 and OA by knockdown and overexpression DUSP5, respectively. Results from in vitro experiments demonstrated that the knockdown of DUSP5 increased interleukin-1β (IL-1β)-induced expression of inflammatory genes, such as inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2), and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in chondrocytes, whereas it decreased the expression of anti-inflammatory genes, such as tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP3) and IL-10. Conversely, the overexpression of DUSP5 suppressed the IL-1β-induced expression of iNOS, COX-2, and MMPs, and upregulated the expression of TIMP3 and IL-10. Moreover, knockdown of DUSP5 enhanced the IL-1β-induced activation of NF-κB and ERK pathways, whereas its overexpression inhibited these pathways. DUSP5 overexpression prevented cartilage degeneration in a rat OA model, while its knockdown reversed that effect. Our findings reveal that DUSP5 suppresses IL-1β-induced chondrocyte inflammation by inhibiting the NF-κB and ERK signaling pathways and ameliorates OA.
