A rare subset of IL‐10‐producing B cells, named Breg, was recently identified in mice and humans. Currently, there are no unified cell surface markers to identify Breg, and the relationship between the frequency of Breg and HIV disease progression in chronic HIV infection is unclear. In the present study, we determined whether the cell surface markers of Breg reported for other diseases are suitable for identifying Breg in HIV‐infected patients. In addition, we examined the relationship between Breg and HIV disease progression. We found that Breg frequency correlated positively with viral load and negatively with CD4 count in chronic HIV infection. Following antiretroviral treatment, the CD4 count increased and the frequency of Breg decreased stepwise. There was no difference in IL‐10 expression of CD1dhi or CD1dlo cells isolated from HIV‐infected patients. Therefore, CD1d may not be a marker of Breg in HIV‐infected patients. 相似文献

Background
Fibrosis involves the activation of inflammatory cells, leading to a decrease in physiological function of the affected organ or tissue.Aims
To update and synthesize relevant information concerning fibrosis into a new hypothesis to explain the pathogenesis of fibrosis and propose potential novel therapeutic approaches.Materials and Methods
Literature was reviewed and relevant information is discussed in the context of the pathogenesis of fibrosis.Results
A number of cytokines and their mRNA are involved in the circulatory system and in organs of patients with fibrotic tissues. The profibrotic cytokines are generated by several activated immune cells, including fibroblasts and mast cells (MCs), which are important for tissue inflammatory responses to different types of injury. MC‐derived TNF, IL‐1, and IL‐33 contribute crucially to the initiation of a cascade of the host defence mechanism(s), leading to the fibrosis process. Inhibition of TNF and inflammatory cytokines may slow the progression of fibrosis and improve the pathological status of the affected subject. IL‐37 is generated by various types of immune cells and is an IL‐1 family member protein. IL‐37 is not a receptor antagonist; it binds IL‐18 receptor alpha (IL‐18Rα) and delivers the inhibitory signal by using TIR8. It has been shown that IL‐37 can be protective in inflammation and injury, and inhibits both innate and adaptive immunity.Discussion
IL‐37 may be useful for suppression of inflammatory diseases induced by inhibiting MyD88‐dependent TLR signalling. In addition, IL‐37 downregulates NF‐κB induced by TLR2 or TLR4 through a mechanism dependent on IL‐18Rα.Conclusion
This review summarizes current knowledge on the role of MC in inflammation and tissue/organ fibrosis, with a focus on the therapeutic potential of IL‐37‐targeting cytokines.3.

Background
No effective long‐term treatment is available for rheumatoid arthritis. Recent advances in gene therapy and cell therapy have demonstrated efficiency in collagen‐induced arthritis (CIA). Interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) is already known to be efficient in CIA in systemic injection or administered by gene therapy. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of a non‐viral gene therapy of CIA, involving injection of syngeneic fibroblasts transfected with a plasmid encoding for IL‐4.Methods
Immortalised fibroblasts from DBA/1 mice (DBA/1/0 cells) were transfected with a plasmid expressing IL‐4 cDNA (DBA/1/IL‐4 cells). Xenogeneic fibroblasts from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) transfected with a plasmid expressing IL‐4 cDNA (CHO/IL‐4) were studied also. The cells were engrafted in mice developing CIA by subcutaneous injection of 3 × 106 DBA/1/0 or DBA/1/IL‐4 or CHO/IL‐4 cells.Results
Injection of DBA/1/IL‐4 cells, on days 10 and 25 after immunisation, was associated with a significant and lasting improvement in the clinical and histological evidence of joint inflammation and destruction as compared with DBA/1/0 and CHO/IL‐4 cells. DBA/1/IL‐4 cell treatment decreased also the production of IgG2a antibody to CII and the proliferation of CIIB‐specific nodal T cells. Later treatments (engraftments on days 23 and 35 after immunisation) exerted also an anti‐inflammatory effect, as evaluated on clinical and histological signs of CIA.Conclusions
Taken together, these findings indicate that systemic administration of syngeneic cells transfected with an anti‐inflammatory cytokine gene, namely IL‐4, with a non‐viral method is effective in CIA and may attenuate the cytokine imbalance seen in this disease.

The role of T and B lymphocytes, as antigen-specific effector immune cells playing an essential role in host defense against pathogens, is well recognized. Over the last decade, these lymphocytes have however also emerged as key regulatory components of the immune system, able to prevent various immunopathologies due to excessive inflammatory responses. These regulatory T (Treg) and B (Breg) cells, endowed with anti-inflammatory properties, operate via both antigen-specific and non-specific mechanisms and mainly develop during chronic infections. Here, we discuss the role of Treg and Breg lymphocytes in various infectious diseases, in experimental murine models and in human. 相似文献

The IL4 C(?590)T, IL4RA Ile50Val, and TNF G(?308)A polymorphisms were tested for association with quantitative traits important for chronic virus hepatitis, including the levels of IL4, IL10, IL12, TNF-α, fibronectin, collagenase, the proteinase inhibitor, macroglobulin, and free and protein-bound (PBO) oxyproline. Allele A of the TNF G(?308)A polymorphism was associated with a lower TNF-α production by mononuclear cells, a higher production of IL4 and IL12, and a lower PBO level. The genotype CT of the IL4 C(?590)T polymorphism was associated with a high PBO level. 相似文献

IL-10-producing B (Breg) cells regulate various immune responses. However, their phenotype remains unclear. CD40 expression was significantly increased in B cells by LPS, and the Breg cells were also enriched in CD40hiCD5+ B cells. Furthermore, CD40 expression on Breg cells was increased by IL-10, CD40 ligand, and B cell-activating factor, suggesting that CD40hi is a common phenotype of Breg cells. LPS-induced CD40 expression was largely suppressed by an anti-IL-10 receptor antibody and in IL-10−/−CD5+CD19+ B cells. The autocrine effect of IL-10 on the CD40 expression was largely suppressed by an inhibitor of JAK/STAT3. In vivo, the LPS treatment increased the population of CD40hiCD5+ Breg cells in mice. However, the population of CD40hiCD5+ B cells was minimal in IL-10−/− mice by LPS. Altogether, our findings show that Breg cells are largely enriched in CD40hiCD5+ B cells and the autocrine effect of IL-10 is critical to the formation of CD40hiCD5+ Breg cells.

Background
Gene transfer using retroviral transduction offers the advantage of long‐term transgene expression in developing strategies that use dendritic cells (DCs) for immunotherapy. The goal of this study was to infect DCs in an immature state in order to take advantage of their proliferating and tolerogenic potential.Methods
Immature DCs were generated from murine bone marrow (BM) using either GM‐CSF alone or GM‐CSF plus IL‐4. The cells were transduced directly with retroviral supernatants or by co‐culture with the GP + E‐86 retroviral packaging cell line in the presence of two different cationic polymers: polybrene and protamine sulfate. Phenotypic and functional characterization of the transduced cells were then performed.Results
Our results show a low efficiency of retroviral infection of DCs in the presence of polybrene. This cationic polymer was found to be directly cytotoxic to murine DCs and thus favored the growth of contaminating macrophages. This effect was not observed using protamine sulfate. Furthermore, stimulation by IL‐4 early in the culture increased DC differentiation, proliferation and transduction. However, we found that DCs generated in GM‐CSF plus IL‐4 presented a more mature phenotype with an enhanced allogeneic stimulating activity. Finally, we showed that DCs themselves down‐regulated transgene expression in the co‐cultured packaging cell line in a promoter‐dependent manner.Conclusions
We have defined optimal conditions to generate and transduce murine BM‐derived DCs. This included: the use of protamine sulfate during exposure to retroviral infectious supernatant and the addition of IL‐4 at an early stage of the culture. Nevertheless, this cytokine also induced DC maturation. These findings have potential implications in experimental gene therapy. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.9.

The human immune system is a tightly regulated network that protects the host from disease. An important aspect of this is the balance between pro‐inflammatory Th17 cells and anti‐inflammatory T regulatory (Treg) cells in maintaining immune homeostasis. Foxp3+ Treg are critical for sustaining immune tolerance through IL‐10 and transforming growth factor‐β while related orphan receptor‐γt+ Th17 cells promote immunopathology and auto‐inflammatory diseases through the actions of IL‐17A, IL‐21 and IL‐22. Therefore, imbalance between Treg and Th17 cells can result in serious pathology in many organs and tissues. Recently, certain IL‐17‐producing cells have been found to be protective against infectious disease, particularly in relation to extracellular bacteria such Streptococcus pneumoniae; a number of other novel IL‐17‐secreting cell populations have also been reported to protect against a variety of other pathogens. In this mini‐review, the dual roles of Treg and Th17 cells are discussed in the context of autoimmunity and infections, highlighting recent advances in the field. Development of novel strategies specifically designed to target these critical immune response pathways will become increasingly important in maintenance of human health. 相似文献

Introduction
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a multisystem-involved autoimmune disease. Abnormally activated and differentiated B cells may play important roles. Regulatory B cells (Breg) are newly defined B cell subgroups with immunosuppressive functions. In this study, we investigated the differences of B cell subsets, the expressions of co-stimulatory molecules on B cells, and the function of Breg cells in patients with IgG4-RD, primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) as well as in healthy controls (HC).Methods
Newly diagnosed IgG4-RD patients (n = 48) were enrolled, 38 untreated pSS patients and 30 healthy volunteers were recruited as disease and healthy controls. To analyze B cell subsets and B cell activity, PBMCs were surface stained and detected by flow cytometry. The function of Breg cells was tested by coculturing isolated CD19 + CD24hiCD38hi Breg cells with purified CD4 + CD25- T cells. Serum cytokines were measured by ELISA and cytometric bead array. Relationship between clinical data and laboratory findings were analyzed as well.Results
Compared with pSS patients and HC, IgG4-RD patients had a lower frequency of peripheral Breg cells. Interestingly, CD19 + CD24-CD38hi B cell subsets were significantly higher in peripheral B cells from IgG4-RD patients than in pSS patients and HC, which correlated with serum IgG4 levels. The expression of BAFF-R and CD40 on B cells was significantly lower in IgG4-RD patients compared with those in pSS patients and HC. Unlike HC, Breg cells from pSS patients lacked suppressive functions.Conclusions
B cells in patients with IgG4-RD and pSS display a variety of abnormalities, including disturbed B cell subpopulations, abnormal expression of key signaling molecules, co-stimulatory molecules, and inflammatory cytokines. In addition, a significantly increased B cell subset, CD19 + CD24-CD38hi B cells, may play an important role in the pathogenesis of IgG4-RD. 相似文献13.

IL-10+ regulatory B (Breg) cells play a vital role in regulating the immune responses in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, colitis, and contact hypersensitivity (CHS). Several sti-mulants such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), CD40 ligand, and IL-21 spur the activation and maturation of IL-10+ Breg cells, while the epigenetic mechanism for the IL-10 expression remains largely unknown. It is well accepted that the histone acetylation/deacetylation is an important mechanism that regulates the expression of IL-10. We found that entinostat, an HDAC inhibitor, stimulated the induction of IL-10+ Breg cells by LPS in vitro and the formation of IL-10+ Breg cells to suppress CHS in vivo. We further demonstrated that entinostat inhibited HDAC1 from binding to the proximal region of the IL-10 expression promoter in splenic B cells, followed by an increase in the binding of NF-κB p65, eventually enhancing the expression of IL-10 in Breg cells. 相似文献

B lymphocytes play a central role in host immunity. They orchestrate humoral immune responses that modulate activities of other immune cells and produce neutralizing antibodies that confer lasting immunity to infectious diseases including smallpox, measles and poliomyelitis. In addition to these traditional functions is the recent recognition that B cells also play critical role in maintaining peripheral tolerance and suppressing the development or severity of autoimmune diseases. Their immune suppressive function is attributed to relatively rare populations of regulatory B cells (Bregs) that produce anti-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin 10 (IL-10), IL-35 and transforming growth factor-β. The IL-35-producing B cell (i35-Breg) is the newest Breg subset described. i35-Bregs suppress central nervous system autoimmune diseases by inducing infectious tolerance whereby conventional B cells acquire regulatory functions that suppress pathogenic Th17 responses. In this review, we discuss immunobiology of i35-Breg cell, i35-Breg therapies for autoimmune diseases and potential therapeutic strategies for depleting i35-Bregs that suppress immune responses against pathogens and tumor cells. 相似文献

Recently, it has been shown that the capacity of the innate immune system to produce cytokines relates to skeletal muscle mass and strength in older persons. The interleukin‐10 (IL‐10) gene regulates the production capacities of IL‐10 and tumour necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α). In rural Ghana, IL‐10 gene variants associated with different production capacities of IL‐10 and TNF‐α are enriched compared with Caucasian populations. In this setting, we explored the association between these gene variants and muscle strength. Among 554 Ghanaians aged 50 years and older, we determined 20 single nucleotide polymorphisms in the IL‐10 gene, production capacities of IL‐10 and TNF‐α in whole blood upon stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and handgrip strength as a proxy for skeletal muscle strength. We distinguished pro‐inflammatory haplotypes associated with low IL‐10 production capacity and anti‐inflammatory haplotypes with high IL‐10 production capacity. We found that distinct haplotypes of the IL‐10 gene associated with handgrip strength. A pro‐inflammatory haplotype with a population frequency of 43.2% was associated with higher handgrip strength (P = 0.015). An anti‐inflammatory haplotype with a population frequency of 7.9% was associated with lower handgrip strength (P = 0.006). In conclusion, variants of the IL‐10 gene contributing to a pro‐inflammatory cytokine response associate with higher muscle strength, whereas those with anti‐inflammatory response associate with lower muscle strength. Future research needs to elucidate whether these effects of variation in the IL‐10 gene are exerted directly through its role in the repair of muscle tissue or indirectly through its role in the defence against infectious diseases. 相似文献

Mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) possess immunomodulatory properties, which confer enormous potential for clinical application. Considerable evidence revealed their efficacy on various animal models of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus and uveitis. MSCs elicit their immunomodulatory effects by inhibiting lymphocyte activation and proliferation, forbidding the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines, limiting the function of antigen presenting cells, and inducing regulatory T(Treg) and B(Breg) cells. The induction of Treg and Breg cells is of particular interest since Treg and Breg cells have significant roles in maintaining immune tolerance. Several mechanisms have been proposed regarding to the MSCs-mediated induction of Treg and Breg cells. Accordingly, MSCs induce regulatory lymphocytes through secretion of multiple pleiotropic cytokines, cell-to-cell contact with target cells and modulation of antigen-presenting cells. Here, we summarized how MSCs induce Treg and Breg cells to provoke immunosuppression. 相似文献
