Innate immunity and adaptive immunity consist of highly specialized immune lineages that depend on transcription factors for both function and development. In this review, we dissect the similarities between two innate lineages, innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and dendritic cells (DCs), and an adaptive immune lineage, T cells. ILCs, DCs, and T cells make up four functional immune modules and interact in concert to produce a specified immune response. These three immune lineages also share transcriptional networks governing the development of each lineage, and we discuss the similarities between ILCs and DCs in this review.

Abstract Psoriasis is a frequent autoimmune-related skin disease, which involves various cell types such as T cells, keratinocytes and dendritic cells. Genetic variations, such as mutations of CARD14, can promote the development of the disease. CARD14 mutations as well as the stimulation of immune and cytokine receptors activate the paracaspase MALT1, a potent activator of the transcription factors NF-κB and AP-1. The disease-promoting role of MALT1 for psoriasis is mediated by both its protease activity as well as its molecular scaffold function. Here, we review the importance of MALT1-mediated signaling and its therapeutic implications in psoriasis.

Abstract Despite numerous therapeutic advances, the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains a challenge, with current 5-year survival rates estimated at 4%. Multiple characteristic elements of GBM contribute to its treatment-resistance, including its low immunogenicity and its highly immunosuppressive microenvironment that can effectively disarm adaptive immune responses. Hence, therapeutic strategies that aim to boost T-lymphocyte mediated responses against GBM are of great therapeutic value. Herein, we present a therapeutic vaccination strategy that promotes the phagocytosis of tumor cells, enhances tumor antigen presentation, and induces a tumor-specific adaptive immune response. This strategy consists of vaccinations with irradiated whole tumor cells (rWTC) pulsed with phagocytic agonists (Mannan-BAM), TLR ligands [LTA, Poly (I:C), and R-848], and anti-CD40 antibody (collectively abbreviated as rWTC-MBTA). We evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of rWTC-MBTA strategy in a mouse syngeneic GL261 orthotopic GBM tumor model. rWTC-MBTA or vehicle control were administered subcutaneously over the right foreleg three days after intracranial injection of GL261 cells. Complete regression (CR) of intracranial tumors was achieved in 70% (7/10) of rWTC-MBTA treated animals while none survived in the control group. Immunophenotyping analyses of peripheral lymph nodes and brain tumors of rWTC-MBTA treated mice demonstrated: (1) increased mature dendritic cells and MHC II+ monocytes; (2) increased effector (CD62L-CD44+) CD4-T and CD8-T cells; (3) increased cytotoxic IFNγ-, TNFα-, and granzyme B-secreting CD4-T and CD8-T cells. Of note, the therapeutic efficacy of rWTC-MBTA disappeared in CD4-T and/or CD8-T lymphocyte depleted mice. Three mice that achieved CR were rechallenged with 50k GL261 cells intracranially 14 months after the last rWTC-MBTA treatment and all rechallenged animals resisted GL261 tumor development, confirming the establishment of long-term immunological memory against GL261 tumor cells. Collectively, our study demonstrated that rWTC-MBTA strategy can effectively activate antigen presenting cells and induce more favorable T-cell signatures in the GBM tumors.

It has been previously demonstrated that alloantisera can specifically block the activation of T lymphocytes by antigens, the response to which is linked to the presence of histocompatibility (H) types against which the alloantisera are directed. Thus, strain 13 anti-2 serum can inhibit the activation of (2 x 13)F1 T lymphocytes by a DNP derivative of a copolymer of L-glutamic acid and L-lysine (DNP-GL), an antigen the response to which is controlled by a 2-linked Ir gene. It was proposed that alloantisera can inhibit T-lymphocyte antigen recognition through interference with the activity of immune response (Ir) gene products. In order to further study whether the inhibitory antibodies within the alloantisera are directed against H antigens or against the products of the Ir genes, we have examined whether the anti-2 serum can inhibit the function of an Ir gene (the L-glutamic acid and L-alanine [GA] gene), which is normally linked to strain 2 H genes when this gene occurs in an outbred animal lacking strain 2 H genes. In the majority of cases, the anti-2 serum was capable of inhibiting the in vitro proliferative response to GA of T cells derived from animals that were GA+2+, but the serum had little if any effect on the GA response of T cells from GA+2- animals. Furthermore, an antiserum prepared in strain 13 animals against the lymphoid cells of a GA+2- outbred animal was devoid of inhibitory activity on the GA response of cells from a (2 x 13)F1, while an antiserum prepared in strain 13 animals against the lymphoid cells of a GA+2+ outbred animal was capable of specifically inhibiting the response to GA. It thus appears that the inhibition of the GA response by the anti-2 serum is primarily mediated via antibodies directed toward strain 2 H antigens rather than antibodies specific for the product of the GA Ir gene. The mechanism of alloantiserum induced suppression of Ir gene function would then be by steric interference with the Ir gene product on the cell surface, rather than by direct binding to it. This conclusion implies that the products of both the H genes and the Ir genes are physically related on the cell surface. The implications of such a relationship in terms of the fluid-mosaic model of the lymphocyte surface are discussed.
