The chemerin/CMKLR1 axis regulates intestinal graft-versus-host disease

Erica Dander, Paola Vinci, Stefania Vetrano, Camilla Recordati, Rocco Piazza, Grazia Fazio, Donatella Bardelli, Mattia Bugatti, Francesca Sozio, Andrea Piontini, Sonia Bonanomi, Luca Bertola, Elena Tassistro, Maria Grazia Valsecchi, Stefano Calza, William Vermi, Andrea Biondi, Annalisa Del Prete, Silvano Sozzani, Giovanna D'Amico

Summary: Gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is a major complication after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT). Chemerin, a chemotactic protein, and its receptor CMKLR1 play a role in leukocyte recruitment to inflamed tissues. In this study, chemerin levels were elevated in mice with GvHD, and knockout of CMKLR1 worsened GvHD symptoms and survival. Histological analysis showed severe colitis in CMKLR1 knockout mice, characterized by neutrophil infiltration, tissue damage, and inflammation. Similar findings were observed in transplant recipients and colitis-induced mice. Transferring wild-type monocytes into CMKLR1 knockout mice improved GvHD symptoms by reducing gut inflammation and T cell activation. Furthermore, higher serum chemerin levels were associated with GvHD development in patients. These results suggest that CMKLR1/chemerin pathway may play a protective role in controlling intestinal inflammation and tissue damage in GvHD.

Proteomic profiling identifies CLEC4C expression as a novel biomarker of primary graft dysfunction after heart transplantation

Lauren K. Truby, Lydia Coulter Kwee, Richa Agarwal, Elizabeth Grass, Adam D. DeVore, Chetan B. Patel, Dongfeng Chen, Jacob N. Schroder, Dawn Bowles, Carmelo A. Milano, Svati H. Shah, Christopher L. Holley

Summary: The pre-transplant circulating levels of CLEC4C protein may be associated with the risk of PGD after heart transplantation, particularly in biventricular/left ventricular and isolated right ventricular PGD. The RADIAL score showed poor predictive performance for PGD, while the combination of CLEC4C with clinical covariates significantly improved discrimination.

Ablation of SigH+ pDCs in B6.Nba2 mice prevents lupus-like disease development only if started before disease is fully established

Nicole O. Campbell, Laura M. Davison, Shuvojit Banerjee, Jane K. Nguyen, Sarah Krafcik, Robert H. Silverman, Trine N. Jorgensen

Summary: This study reveals that ablation of pDCs needs to be initiated early and sustained in order to prevent the development of lupus-like disease. Furthermore, targeting pDCs does not affect general immunity.

A misdiagnosed case of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm experiencing multiple recurrences who underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation: a case report

Fateme Salemi, Seyed Mohammad Reza Mortazavizadeh, Seyyedmohammadsadeq Mirmoeeni, Amirhossein Azari Jafari, Farid Kosari, Seyed Sina Naghibi Irvani

Summary: Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm is a rare hematologic malignancy that often manifests through skin lesions and predominantly affects elderly males. Early clinical suspicion and accurate pathological diagnosis are crucial for patients' prognosis. Allogenic bone marrow transplant should be approached with caution in aggressive forms of this disease due to transplant side effects and high risk of cancer recurrence.

Reduced circulating dendritic cells in acute Plasmodium knowlesi and Plasmodium falciparum malaria despite elevated plasma Flt3 ligand levels

Jessica R. Loughland, Tonia Woodberry, Damian Oyong, Kim A. Piera, Fiona H. Amante, Bridget E. Barber, Matthew J. Grigg, Timothy William, Christian R. Engwerda, Nicholas M. Anstey, James S. McCarthy, Michelle J. Boyle, Gabriela Minigo

Summary: In adults, submicroscopic Plasmodium infection does not change plasma Flt3L levels, but does reduce circulating DCs. Plasma Flt3L levels increase in acute malaria, but this increase is not enough to restore or expand circulating DC subsets. Haematopoietic factors other than Flt3L may be impacted by malaria and submicroscopic infections in sensing/maintenance of circulating DC. Zoonotic P. knowlesi compromises DC in adult malaria, similar to other Plasmodium species.

Immune control of cytomegalovirus reactivation in stem cell transplantation

Mariapia A. Degli-Esposti, Geoffrey R. Hill

Summary: The reactivation of viruses after stem cell transplantation is a clinical challenge. Monitoring strategies and expensive antiviral drugs are needed. T cells, natural killer cells, and dendritic cells play important roles in protecting against viral reactivation. Graft-versus-host disease and new antiviral drugs may affect immune functionality and relevance.

CMV exposure drives long-term CD57+ CD4 memory T-cell inflation following allogeneic stem cell transplant

Albert C. Yeh, Antiopi Varelias, Anupama Reddy, Sierra M. Barone, Stuart D. Olver, Kate Chilson, Lynn E. Onstad, Kathleen S. Ensbey, Andrea S. Henden, Luke Samson, Carla A. Jaeger, Timothy Bi, Kimberly B. Dahlman, Tae Kon Kim, Ping Zhang, Mariapia A. Degli-Esposti, Evan W. Newell, Madan H. Jagasia, Jonathan M. Irish, Stephanie J. Lee, Geoffrey R. Hill

Summary: Studies show that the CMV serostatus of donors and recipients is associated with transplant-related mortality following allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT). Previous research has indicated that CMV-seronegative recipients receiving a CMV-seropositive graft may have inferior outcomes compared to other serostatus combinations, even without viral reactivation. This suggests that prior CMV exposure can have lasting effects on immune function after SCT.

Summary: Tissue health relies on the ability to respond to disturbances and restore homeostasis. This study identifies a population of innate lymphocytes, called tissue-resident memory-like natural killer (NKRM) cells, that develop adaptive-like features including long-term residency in non-lymphoid tissues. These NKRM cells prevent autoimmunity by eliminating CD4+ T cells, and modulating their functions could offer new strategies for treating inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
