Project description:The levels of IL-17 are elevated in the serum of psoriasis patients. However, the effects of IL-17 on circulating leukocytes bearing the IL-17 receptors are not fully understood. Of particular interest are monocytes, as the activation and recruitment of effector monocytes underlies the pathobiology of a number systemic inflammatory diseases, including psoriasis co-morbidities, such as atherosclerosis, metabolic regulation in adipose tissue and psoriatic arthritis. Human monocytes highly express both IL-17RA and IL-17RC and chemotraffick in response to IL-17. We explored the impact of IL-17 on blood monocytes. Using cDNA microarray, , we molecularly characterized how human blood monocytes respond to IL-17A in vitro. total RNA was extratced from CD14+ monocytes (isolated from human blood) after 24hr culture with or without IL-17A (200ng/mL)

Project description:Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) is a key mediator of protective immunity to yeast and bacterial infections but also drives the pathogenesis of several autoimmune diseases, such as psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis. Here, we show that the tetra-transmembrane protein CMTM4 is a subunit of the IL-17 receptor (IL-17R). CMTM4 constitutively associated with IL-17R subunit C (IL-17RC) to mediate its stability, posttranslational modification, and plasma membrane localization. Both mouse and human cell lines deficient in CMTM4 were largely unresponsive to IL-17A, due to their inability to assemble the IL-17 receptor signaling complex. Accordingly, CMTM4-deficient mice were largely resistant to experimental psoriasis. Collectively, our data identified CMTM4 as an essential component of the IL-17 receptor and a potential therapeutic target for treating IL-17-mediated autoimmune diseases.

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 infection triggers cytokine-mediated inflammation, leading to a myriad of clinical presentations in COVID19. The SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 is a secreted and rapidly evolving glycoprotein. Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 ORF8-deleted variants are associated with mild disease outcomes, but the molecular mechanism this behind is unknown. Here, we report that SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 is a viral cytokine that is similar but distinct from interleukin 17A (IL-17A) as it induces stronger and broader human IL-17 receptor (hIL-17R) signaling than IL-17A. ORF8 primarily targeted blood monocytes and induced the heterodimerization of hIL-17RA and hIL-17RC, triggering robust inflammatory response. Transcriptome analysis revealed that besides its activation of the hIL-17R pathway, ORF8 upregulated gene expressions for fibrosis signaling and coagulation dysregulation. A naturally occurring ORF8 L84S variant that highly associated with mild COVID-19 showed reduced hIL-17RA binding and attenuated inflammatory responses. This study discovers SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 as a viral mimicry of IL-17 cytokine to contribute COVID-19 severe inflammation.

Project description:The IL-23/IL-17 immune axis is of central importance in psoriasis. However, the contribution of IL-17 family cytokines other than IL-17A to drive skin inflammation in psoriasis has not been fully established. To further elucidate the role of individual IL-17 family cytokines in psoriasis, we investigated their expression and localization in psoriasis skin at the mRNA and protein level. Moreover, we investigated the gene expression signatures induced by individual IL-17 family cytokines in human skin ex vivo as well as modulation of responses induced by the combination of IL-17 family cytokines in human keratinocytes by brodalumab, a human monoclonal antibody targeting the IL-17RA, versus the IL-17A blocking antibody ixekizumab. We demonstrate that IL-17A, IL-17AF, IL-17F and IL-17C are expressed at increased levels in psoriasis lesional skin and induce inflammatory gene expression signatures in human skin ex vivo that correlate with those observed in psoriasis. Furthermore, we show that brodalumab, in contrast to ixekizumab, fully blocks gene expression responses induced by the combination of IL-17A, IL-17AF, IL-17F and IL-17C in human keratinocytes. These findings suggest that inhibition of several IL-17 family cytokines, e.g. by targeting of the IL-17RA receptor, could be a favored mechanism to obtain a profound suppression of the inflammatory processes in psoriasis and thereby achieve high levels of skin clearance and sustained efficacy in patients with psoriasis.

Project description:In psoriasis, inflammation and epidermal hyperplasia are thought to be controlled by T cell-derived cytokines. Evidence now suggests that Th17 and Th22 cells infiltrate psoriasis lesions and by secreting IL-17 and IL-22, respectively, may drive disease-specific gene or cell responses. While studies in model systems indicate that IL-22 has a dominant pathogenic role, there is evolving evidence that IL-17 contributes to features of psoriasis. To more fully understand the role of IL-17 in human disease pathogenesis, we examined psoriatic skin lesions obtained from patients treated with an anti-IL-17 (IL-17 A) monoclonal antibody, LY2439821. In a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose escalation trial, patients with chronic psoriasis were randomized to receive 3 doses of subcutaneous LY2439821 at 5 mg (n=8), 15 mg (n=8), 50 mg (n=8), 150 mg (n=8) or placebo (n=8) at weeks 0, 2 and 4. Repeat biopsies were taken from the same lesional area at baseline, week 2 and 6. At week 6, a PASI75 was observed in 0/8, 2/8, 5/7 and 8/8 patients receiving 5 mg, 15 mg, 50 mg or 150 mg LY2439821 respectively and 0/8 patients receiving placebo. The antibody was well-tolerated. In patients receiving the two highest doses, histological and immunohistochemical analyses of biopsies revealed significant reductions from baseline in keratinocyte proliferation, hyperplasia and epidermal thickness after 2 weeks, as well as reduced infiltration into the dermis and epidermis by T-cells (CD3+) and dendritic cells (CD11c and DC-LAMP). Keratinocyte expression of innate defense proteins, S100A7, S100A8, beta-defensin2 and LL37/cathelicidin was also reduced. By week 6, the skin appeared normal with a reversal of disease defining pathological features. Quantitative RT-PCR revealed decreased expression of interferon gamma (IFN-gamma), IL-22 and IL-17, key cytokines from T cell subsets Th1, Th22 and Th17, respectively. In order to explore the extent to which IL-17 blockade influences an even broader set of inflammatory or psoriatic disease related genes, mRNA levels from skin biopsy samples were evaluated using whole genome microarrays. At week 2, the highest dose of LY2439821 modulated over 1500 genes significantly (>1.5 fold change [FC], p<0.05). Of these, 51 genes were strongly suppressed (>7-fold) including IL-19, lipocalin, amphiregulin, granzyme B, and several chemokines. In a separate analysis, those genes known to be synergistically regulated by both IL-17 and TNF-alpha showed the greatest normalization in expression compared to genes known to be regulated by TNF-alpha alone, IFN-gamma or Interferon alpha. Our data suggest that Th17 cells, through the expression of IL-17, mediate psoriasis pathogenesis, and that neutralization of IL-17 with LY2439821 suppresses signaling through multiple inflammatory circuits by inhibiting expression of cytokines from multiple T cell subsets, as well as chemokines, and antimicrobial proteins from keratinocytes. In a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose escalation trial, patients with chronic psoriasis were randomized to receive 3 doses of subcutaneous LY2439821 at 5 mg (n=8), 15 mg (n=8), 50 mg (n=8), 150 mg (n=8) or placebo (n=8) at weeks 0, 2 and 4. Repeat biopsies were taken from the same lesional area at baseline, week 2 and 6. At week 6, a PASI75 was observed in 0/8, 2/8, 5/7 and 8/8 patients receiving 5 mg, 15 mg, 50 mg or 150 mg LY2439821 respectively and 0/8 patients receiving placebo.

Project description:Our group recently described a population of antigen presenting cells that appear to be critical in psoriasis pathogenesis, termed inflammatory myeloid dendritic cells (CD11c+ BDCA1-). Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells type-1 (TREM-1) signaling was a major canonical pathway in the published transcriptome of these cells. TREM-1 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, active through the DAP12 signaling pathway, with an unknown ligand. Activation through TREM-1 induces inflammatory cytokines including IL-8, MCP/CCL2 and TNF. We now show that TREM-1 was expressed in the skin of healthy and psoriatic patients, and there was increased soluble TREM-1 in the circulation of psoriasis patients. In psoriasis lesions, TREM-1 was co-localized with dendritic cells as well as CD31+ endothelial cells. TREM-1 expression was reduced with successful NB-UVB, etanercept and anti-IL-17 treatments. An in vitro model of PGN-activated monocytes as inflammatory myeloid DCs was developed to study TREM-1 blockade, and treatment with a TREM-1 blocking chimera decreased allogeneic Th17 activation, as well as IL-17 production. Furthermore, TREM-1 blockade of ex vivo psoriatic dendritic cells in an alloMLR also showed a decrease in IL-17. Together, these data suggest that the TREM-1 signaling pathway offers a novel therapeutic target to prevent the effects of inflammatory myeloid DCs in psoriasis. Monocytes were isolated by plastic adherence, treated with TLR agonists overnight, washed twice and harvested in RTL-buffer. RNA was extracted and processed for microarray. 3 groups and 3 replicates with a paired structure across replicates

Project description:Interleukin-23 (IL-23) and IL-17 are cytokines currently being targeted in clinical trials. Although inhibition of these cytokines is effective for treating psoriasis, IL-12/23 inhibition attenuates Crohn's disease, while IL-17A or IL-17RA inhibition exacerbates disease. This dichotomy between IL-23 and IL-17 was effectively modeled in the mdr1a- /- mouse model of colitis. IL-23 inhibition attenuated disease by decreasing colonic inflammation while enhancing Treg accumulation. Exacerbation of colitis by IL-17A or IL-17RA inhibition was associated with severe weakening of the intestinal epithelial barrier, culminating in increased colonic inflammation and accelerated mortality. These data show that IL-17A acts on intestinal epithelium to promote barrier function and provides insight into mechanisms underlying exacerbation of Crohn's disease when IL-17A or IL-17RA is inhibited.

Project description:Important immune regulatory mechanisms mediated by CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells keep untoward CD4+ T-cell responses in check. CD4+ T-helper 17 (Th17) cells, characterized by IL-17 production, play critical roles in the body’s response to infections and cancer and in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, arthritis, IBD, among others. Here we demonstrate that human CD4+ T-cells cells exposed to a Th17-differentiating milieu are highly resistant to immune suppression by CD8+ T-cells, compared to control Th0 cells. This resistance is mediated, in part, through the action of IL-17A, IL-17F and IL-17AF heterodimer through their receptors (IL-17RA and IL-17RC) on CD4+ T-cells themselves, but not through their action on CD8+ T-cells or APC. We further show that IL-17 can directly act on non-Th17 effector CD4+ T-cells to induce suppressive resistance and this resistance can be reversed by blockade of IL-1, IL-6 or STAT3. These studies reveal a novel function for IL-17 cytokines in a CD4-intrinsic mechanism of immune resistance. The pathways induced in this process may serve as a critical target for intensive investigation and therapeutic intervention.
