Shedding Light on the Complex Regulation of FGF23

Marc G. Vervloet

Summary: Early research suggested a simple relationship between phosphate exposure, increased serum FGF23 concentrations, and clinical endpoints. However, subsequent studies have revealed a more complex interplay between factors in bone. In addition to physiological regulators, various disease states also influence FGF23 levels, increasing the burden of disease. While some factors may confound the association between FGF23 and clinical endpoints, others are in the same causal pathway and hold promise for future therapeutic strategies.

Vitamin D and Mitosis Evaluation in Endometriosis: A Step toward Discovering the Connection?

Daniela Roxana Matasariu, Cristina Elena Mandici, Alexandra Ursache, Alexandra Irma Gabriela Bausic, Iuliana Elena Bujor, Alexandra Elena Cristofor, Lucian Vasile Boiculese, Mihaela Grigore, Elvira Bratila, Ludmila Lozneanu

Summary: The effects of serum vitamin D levels, the vitamin D receptor (VDR), and phosphohistone H3 (PHH3) in endometriosis were investigated in two cohorts of women: those receiving hormonal treatment and those without treatment. Serum 25(OH) vitamin D levels were higher in the treatment group compared with the non-treatment group. VDR levels were positively correlated with PHH3 levels, and both were increased in patients without treatment. Serum 25(OH) vitamin D levels and IHC analysis of VDR and PHH3 can be used as additional tools for risk stratification and prognostic assessment in patients with endometriosis.

Shedding Light on the Ghost Proteome

Tristan Cardon, Isabelle Fournier, Michel Salzet

Summary: Recently, large-scale proteomics studies have identified alternative open reading frames (AltORFs) in addition to predicted reference ORFs and noncoding RNA in eukaryotic mRNAs. These alternative proteins, known as the 'Ghost proteome', were not previously included in conventional protein databases. Growing evidence suggests that some of these alternative proteins play functional roles in physiological and physiopathological contexts, impacting signaling pathways and serving as potential therapeutic targets and markers for pathologies.

High Vitamin D Concentrations Restore the Ability to Express LL37 by M. tuberculosis-Infected Human Macrophages

Maria Teresa Herrera, Esmeralda Juarez, Silvia Guzman-Beltran, Martha Torres, Victor Adrian Luna-Morales, Leonardo Daniel Villalana-Alvarez, Yolanda Gonzalez

Summary: Vitamin D deficiency in patients with Type 2 diabetes makes them more susceptible to developing tuberculosis. This study found that high concentrations of the inactive form of vitamin D can restore the ability of infected macrophages to express the antimicrobial peptide LL37, regardless of glucose concentrations. This supports the idea that vitamin D administration in patients with Type 2 diabetes could benefit tuberculosis control and prevention.

Sarno, M. Luisa Iruela-Arispe, Eynav Klechevsky, Bryan Bryson, Alex K. Shalek, Barry R. Bloom, Johann E. Gudjonsson, Matteo Pellegrini, Robert L. Modlin

Summary: The study identified a set of genes involved in antimicrobial responses that are differentially expressed in reversal reactions (RRs) lesions compared to lepromatous leprosy (L-lep) lesions, regulated by interferon-gamma and interleukin-1 beta. By integrating spatial coordinates of key cell types and antimicrobial gene expression, a map depicting the organized architecture of granulomas in RR and T-lep lesions was constructed, showing compositional and functional layers contributing to the antimicrobial response. Modlin and colleagues utilized single-cell RNA sequencing with cellular spatial mapping to examine the architecture of granulomas in leprosy lesions, providing insights from localized disease (tuberculoid leprosy, reversal reaction) to progressive infection (lepromatous leprosy).

Lam C. Tsoi, Xianying Xing, Enze Xing, Rachael Wasikowski, Shuai Shao, Chang Zeng, Olesya Plazyo, Joseph Kirma, Yanyung Jiang, Allison C. Billi, Mrinal K. Sarkar, Jessica L. Turnier, Ranjitha Uppala, Kathleen M. Smith, Yolanda Helfrich, John J. Voorhees, Emanual Maverakis, Robert L. Modlin, J. Michelle Kahlenberg, Victoria E. Scott, Johann E. Gudjonsson

Summary: This study demonstrates that tape stripping with optimized high-resolution transcriptomic profiling can effectively assess and characterize inflammatory responses in the skin. By comparing different samples and sampling methods, the study shows that tape stripping can capture the transcriptome of the upper layers of the skin, providing insights into the molecular components of the immune amplification pathway in psoriasis. Additionally, the study suggests that nonlesional psoriatic skin exhibits activated, proinflammatory changes, which are not captured by full-thickness skin biopsy transcriptome profiling.

Modlin

Summary: Acne, a common skin condition affecting 1 in 10 people globally, is characterized by disfiguring facial lesions. This study explored the mechanisms underlying the disease using single-cell and spatial RNA sequencing, as well as ultrahigh-resolution Seq-Scope analysis. The researchers identified TREM2 macrophages expressing lipid metabolism and proinflammatory genes near the hair follicle epithelium, which expressed squalene epoxidase. Through in vitro experiments, it was discovered that squalene induced differentiation of TREM2 macrophages, impairing their ability to kill Cutibacterium acnes. Additionally, the addition of squalene to macrophages inhibited oxidative enzymes and scavenged oxygen free radicals, providing insights into the efficacy of benzoyl peroxide in acne treatment. These findings contribute to our understanding of the role of TREM2 macrophages and unsaturated lipids in the pathogenesis of acne, as well as their similarity to atherosclerosis.

Summary: Research has shown that adipogenic fibroblasts play a critical role in acne pathogenesis and can protect against Cutibacterium acnes infection by producing cathelicidin. The ability of C. acnes to trigger cathelicidin production in preadipocytes is dependent on TLR2. Retinoic acid (RA) treatment can suppress adipogenesis and enhance cathelicidin expression in preadipocytes, providing a potential therapeutic target for difficult-to-treat acne.
