Project description:Purpose of reviewThe mixed chimerism approach is an exceptionally potent strategy for the induction of donor-specific tolerance in organ transplantation and so far the only one that was demonstrated to work in the clinical setting. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have been shown to improve chimerism induction in experimental animal models. This review summarizes the development of innovative BMT protocols using therapeutic Treg transfer for tolerance induction.Recent findingsTreg cell therapy promotes BM engraftment in reduced conditioning protocols in both, mice and non-human primates. In mice, transfer of polyclonal recipient Tregs was sufficient to substitute cytotoxic recipient conditioning. Treg therapy prevented chronic rejection of skin and heart allografts related to tissue-specific antigen disparities, in part by promoting intragraft Treg accumulation.SummaryAdoptive Treg transfer is remarkably effective in facilitating BM engraftment in reduced-intensity protocols in mice and non-human primates. Furthermore, it promotes regulatory mechanisms that prevent chronic rejection.

Project description:Successful adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) requires the ability to activate tumor-specific T cells with the ability to traffic to the tumor site and effectively kill their target as well as persist over time. We hypothesized that ACT using marrow-infiltrating lymphocytes (MILs) in multiple myeloma (MM) could impart greater antitumor immunity in that they were obtained from the tumor microenvironment. We describe the results from the first clinical trial using MILs in MM. Twenty-five patients with either newly diagnosed or relapsed disease had their MILs harvested, activated and expanded, and subsequently infused on the third day after myeloablative therapy. Cells were obtained and adequately expanded in all patients with anti-CD3/CD28 beads plus interleukin-2, and a median of 9.5 × 10(8) MILs were infused. Factors indicative of response to MIL ACT included (i) the presence of measurable myeloma-specific activity of the ex vivo expanded product, (ii) low endogenous bone marrow T cell interferon-? production at baseline, (iii) a CD8(+) central memory phenotype at baseline, and (iv) the generation and persistence of myeloma-specific immunity in the bone marrow at 1 year after ACT. Achieving at least a 90% reduction in disease burden significantly increased the progression-free survival (25.1 months versus 11.8 months; P = 0.01). This study demonstrates the feasibility and efficacy of MILs as a form of ACT with applicability across many hematologic malignancies and possibly solid tumors infiltrating the bone marrow.

Project description:Liver diseases are a major health problem worldwide leading to high mortality rates and causing a considerable economic burden in many countries. Cellular therapies as potential treatments for liver diseases have proven beneficial in most of the conditions. In recent years, studies involving therapy with bone marrow cells have been implemented to promote liver regeneration and to reduce hepatic fibrosis, however identifying the cell population present in the bone marrow that is responsible for hepatic improvement after therapy is still necessary. The aim of the present study was the evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy of monocytes obtained from bone marrow in fibrosis resulting from S. mansoni infection in C57BL/6 mice. Monocytes were isolated by immunomagnetic separation and administered to the infected animals. The effects of treatment were evaluated through morphometric, biochemical, immunological and molecular analyzes. Monocyte therapy promoted reduction of liver fibrosis induced by S. mansoni infection, associated with a decrease in production of inflammatory and pro-fibrogenic mediators. In addition, monocyte infusion caused downregulation of factors associated with the M1 activation profile, as well as upregulation of M2reg markers. The findings altogether reinforce the hypothesis that the predominance of M2reg macrophages, producers of immunosuppressive cytokines, may favor the improvement of hepatic fibrosis in a preclinical model, through fibrous tissue remodeling, modulation of the inflammatory response and fibrogenesis.

Project description:Macrophages play a critical role in the pathophysiology of liver ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury (IRI). However, macrophages that overexpress antioxidant heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) may exert profound anti-inflammatory functions. This study explores the cytoprotective effects and mechanisms of ex vivo modified HO-1-expressing bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) in well-defined mouse model of liver warm ischemia followed by reperfusion. Adoptive transfer of Ad-HO-1-transduced macrophages prevented IR-induced hepatocellular damage, as evidenced by depressed serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (sGOT) levels and preserved liver histology (Suzuki scores), compared to Ad-beta-gal controls. This beneficial effect was reversed following concomitant treatment with HO-1 siRNA. Ad-HO-1-transfected macrophages significantly decreased local neutrophil accumulation, TNF-alpha/IL-1beta, IFN-gamma/E-selectin, and IP-10/MCP-1 expression, caspase-3 activity, and the frequency of apoptotic cells, as compared with controls. Unlike in controls, Ad-HO-1-transfected macrophages markedly increased hepatic expression of antiapoptotic Bcl-2/Bcl-xl and depressed caspase-3 activity. These results establish the precedent for a novel investigative tool and provide the rationale for a clinically attractive new strategy in which native macrophages can be transfected ex vivo with cytoprotective HO-1 and then infused, if needed, to prospective recipients exposed to hepatic IR-mediated local inflammation, such as during liver transplantation, resection, or trauma.

Project description:Airway dendritic cells (DCs) are recognized as important factors in the mechanisms of allergic inflammatory diseases. Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) is involved in regulating the functions of T cells and macrophages, but the roles of SOCS3-expressing DCs in the pathogeneses of allergic inflammatory diseases are still controversial. We compared the effects of adoptively transferred SOCS3-/- and SOCS3+/+ bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs) on airway inflammation in ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized asthmatic mice. Adoptive transfer of mature DCs (lipopolysaccharide [LPS]-induced DCs, DClps) with or without SOCS3 gene expression significantly ameliorated allergic airway inflammation. SOCS3-/- DCs slightly attenuated BMDC-induced immunogenic tolerance. DClps migrated to OVA-sensitized lungs with higher efficiency than immature DCs (DCim). DClps with or without SOCS3 greatly improved lung pathology scores and alleviated airway inflammatory cell infiltration after adoptive transfer into mice; they also increased interleukin-10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) production and inhibited signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 4 and STAT6 signaling in the lungs after OVA sensitization. In conclusion, the BMDC adoptive transfer-induced immunogenic tolerance in OVA-sensitized mice might not be due to SOCS3 gene depletion. BMDC adoptive transfer may be developed into a new approach that alleviates asthma by modulating the balance between immune tolerance and inflammation.

Project description:Mouse models of transplantation have been indispensable to the development of bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Their role in the generation of basic science knowledge is invaluable and is subject to discussion below. However, this article focuses on the direct role and relevance of mouse models towards the clinical development and advances in BMT and adoptive T-cell therapy for human diseases. The authors aim to present a thoughtful perspective on the pros and cons of mouse models while noting that despite imperfections these models are obligatory for the development of science-based medicine.

Project description:There are conflicting data regarding the effects of transplantation of bone marrow-derived cells (BMDCs) on the severity of diabetes. We therefore inquired whether the competence of BMDCs is preserved on adoptive transfer into diabetic (db/db) mice and how the adoptive transfer of BMDCs affects vascular and metabolic abnormalities in these mice. Recipient db/db mice received infusions of BMDCs prepared from either db/db or non-diabetic heterozygout mice (db/m) mice and effects on endothelium-dependent relaxation, insulin sensitivity, and renal function were evaluated. Recipients of BMDCs from db/m, but not db/db donors showed better glucose control, exhibited striking improvement in endothelium-dependent relaxation in response to acetylcholine, and had partially restored renal function. Improved glucose control was due to enhanced insulin sensitivity, most likely secondary to improved vascular function. Enhanced apoptosis of endothelial progenitor cells under oxidative stress, as well as decreased endothelial progenitor cell numbers were responsible for the apparent functional incompetence of BMDCs from db/db donors. Treatment of db/db mice with Ebselen restored the resistance of both BMDCs and endothelial progenitor cells to oxidative stress, improved acetylcholine-induced vasorelaxation, and reduced proteinuria in db/db recipients of BMDC transplantation. In conclusion, infusion of BMDCs obtained from db/m donors to db/db recipient mice benefited macrovascular function, insulin sensitivity, and nephropathy. BMDCs obtained from db/db mice were functionally incompetent secondary to the increased proportion of apoptotic cells on oxidative stress challenge; their competence was restored by Ebselen therapy.

Project description:Histone lactylation is an important biochemical process that plays a vital role in cells. Histone is a protein that is the basic unit of chromosomes. Histone lactylation refers to the addition of a lactoyl group to histone molecules. This process can change the structure and function of histones, thereby affecting the structure and function of chromosomes. Histone lactylation is catalyzed by an enzyme called histone lactyltransferase. This enzyme can transfer a lactyl group to a lysine residue on a histone molecule, thereby forming a lactylated histone. Lactylated histones have different functions, they can affect the structure and function of chromosomes, thereby affecting the expression of genes.
