AbstractMyeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a group of immature cells that produced by emergency myelopoiesis. Emerging evidences have identified the vital role of MDSC in cancer microenvironment, in which MDSC exerts both immunological and non-immunological activities to assist the progression of cancer. Advances in pre-clinical research have provided us the understanding of MDSC in cancer context from the perspective of molecular mechanism. In clinical scenario, MDSC and its subsets have been discovered to exist in peripheral blood and tumor site of patients from various types of cancers. In this review, we highlight the clinical value of MDSC in predicting prognosis of cancer patients and the responses of immunotherapies, therefore to propose the MDSC-inhibiting strategy in the scenario of cancer immunotherapies. Phenotypes and biological functions of MDSC in cancer microenvironment are comprehensively summarized to provide potential targets of MDSC-inhibiting strategy from the aspect of molecular mechanisms.

Diabetes is a syndrome characterized by hyperglycemia with or without insulin resistance. Its etiology is attributed to the combined action of genes, environment and immune cells. Myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) is a heterogeneous population of immature cells with immunosuppressive ability. In recent years, different studies have debated the quantity, activity changes and roles of MDSC in the diabetic microenvironment. However, the emerging roles of MDSC have not been fully documented with regard to their interactions with diabetes. Here, the manifestations of MDSC and their subsets are reviewed with regard to the incidence of diabetes and diabetic complications. The possible drugs targeting MDSC are discussed with regard to their potential of treating diabetes. We believe that understanding MDSC will offer opportunities to explain pathological characteristics of different diabetes. MDSC also will be used for personalized immunotherapy of diabetes.

Abstract Background: Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. Patients have distinct clinical forms, and host´s immunological response regulate those manifestations. In this work, the presence of the myeloid-derived suppressor cell and the regulatory protein annexin A1 is described in patients with multibacillary leprosy and with type 1 and 2 reactions. Methods: Patients were submitted to skin biopsy for histopathological analysis to obtain bacilloscopic index. Immunofluorescence was used to detect myeloid-derived suppressor cells and annexin A1.Results: The data demonstrated that the presence of granulocytic and monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells in leprosy patients. The high number of monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells were observed in lepromatous leprosy and type 2 reactional patients with Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccination scar. The presence of annexin A1 was observed in all myeloid-derived suppressor cells. In particularly, the monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cell in the lepromatous patients has higher levels of this protein when compared to the reactional patients. This data suggest that the higher expression of this protein may be related to regulatory response against a severe infection, contributing to anergic response. In type 1 reactional patients, the expression of annexin A1 was reduced. Conclusions: Myeloid-derived suppressor cell are present in leprosy patients and annexin A1 might be regulated the host response against Mycobacterium leprae.

Abstract Background Sepsis is an increasingly significant challenge throughout the world as one of the major causes of patient morbidity and mortality. Central to the host immunologic response to sepsis is the increase in circulating myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), which have been demonstrated to be present and independently associated with poor long-term clinical outcomes. MDSCs are plastic cells and potentially modifiable, particularly through epigenetic interventions. The objective of this study was to determine how the suppressive phenotype of MDSCs evolves after sepsis in surgical ICU patients, as well as to identify epigenetic differences in MDSCs that may explain these changes. Methods Circulating MDSCs from 267 survivors of surgical sepsis were phenotyped at various intervals over 6 weeks, and highly enriched MDSCs from 23 of these samples were co-cultured with CD3/CD28-stimulated autologous T cells. microRNA expression from enriched MDSCs was also identified. Results We observed that MDSC numbers remain significantly elevated in hospitalized sepsis survivors for at least 6 weeks after their infection. However, only MDSCs obtained at and beyond 14 days post-sepsis significantly suppressed T lymphocyte proliferation and IL-2 production. These same MDSCs displayed unique epigenetic (miRNA) expression patterns compared to earlier time points. Conclusions We conclude that in sepsis survivors, immature myeloid cell numbers are increased but the immune suppressive function specific to MDSCs develops over time, and this is associated with a specific epigenome. These findings may explain the chronic and persistent immune suppression seen in these subjects.

It is universally acknowledged that a large number of immune cells, as well as inflammatory factors, regulatory factors and metabolites, accumulate in the tumor microenvironment to jointly promote tumor escape, development and metastasis. Hypoxia is one of the characteristics in tumor microenvironment and is a common phenomenon in all solid tumors. In tumor hypoxia response, there is a key regulator called HIF-1a, which is a key transcriptional regulatory protein that regulates many critical genes. In this paper, the effects of hypoxia on glucose metabolism of tumor cells, myeloid-derived suppressor cells and T cells in tumor microenvironment were reviewed, and the interaction among the three was also described.

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells that play a critical immunosuppressive role in the tumour micro-environment. Although biological research on MDSCs has made progress, the relationship between the secretion of cytokines by MDSCs and poor prognosis is not clear, and there are no criteria to measure the functional status of MDSCs. Here, we detected the mRNA expression of IL-10, IL-12, TGF-β and TNF-α in MDSCs and the levels of these cytokines in MDSC culture supernatants of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes, and quantified the functional status of MDSCs by IL-10/IL-12 ratio and TGF-β/TNF-α ratio. We found that the ratio of IL-10/IL-12 and TGF-β/TNF-α was significantly higher in higher-risk MDS than in lower-risk MDS and normal control groups. The TGF-β/TNF-α ratio in MDSCs was positively correlated with the percentage of blast cells and was negatively correlated with the percentage of CD3+CD8+ T lymphocytes. Meanwhile, the TGF-β/TNF-α ratio was higher in patients with a lower absolute neutrophil count. It suggested that MDSCs in higher-risk MDS have a stronger immunosuppressive effect and might be related to poor prognosis. Quantifying the functional status of MDSCs with IL-10/IL-12 and TGF-β/TNF-α ratio might help to evaluate the balance of cellular immunity of MDSCs in MDS.

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous subset of cells that expands dramatically in many disease states and can suppress T-cell responses. MDSCs mainly include monocytic and granulocytic subpopulations that can be distinguished in mice by the expression of Ly6G and Ly6C cell surface markers. This identification system has been validated in experimental tumor models, but not in models of inflammation-associated conditions such as sepsis. We challenged growth factor independent 1 transcription repressor green fluorescent protein (Gfi1:GFP) knock-in reporter mice with cecal ligation and puncture surgery and found that CD11b+Ly6GlowLy6Chigh MDSCs in this sepsis model comprised both monocytic and granulocytic MDSCs. The evidence that conventional Ly6G/Ly6C marker analysis may not be suited to study of inflammation-induced MDSCs led to the development of a novel strategy of distinguishing granulocytic MDSCs from monocytic MDSCs in septic mice by expression of CD48. Application of this novel model should help achieve a more accurate understanding of the inflammation-induced MDSC activity.

AbstractMyeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are immunosuppressive cells that are increased in patients with numerous malignancies including viral-derived hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, we report an elevation of MDSC in other hepatobiliary malignancies including non-viral HCC, neuroendocrine tumors (NET), colorectal carcinoma with liver metastases (CRLM), but not cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Investigation of myeloid cell infiltration in HCC, NET and intrahepatic CCA tumors further established that the frequency of antigen-presenting cells was limited compared to benign lesions suggesting that primary and metastatic hepatobiliary cancers have distinct peripheral and tumoral myeloid signatures. Bioinformatics analysis of the Cancer Genome Atlas demonstrated that a high MDSC score in HCC patients predicted poor disease outcome. Mechanistic studies indicated that the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate resulting from isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 mutation could be a limiting factor of MDSC accumulation in CCA patients. Given our observation that MDSCs are increased in non-CCA malignant liver cancers, they may comprise suitable targets for effective immunotherapy approaches.

Underlying Mechanisms

Myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) is a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells, has a pivotal role in negatively regulating immune response, promoting tumor progression, creating pre-metastases niche, and weakening immunotherapy efficacy. The underlying mechanisms are complex and diverse, including immunosuppressive functions (such as inhibition of cytotoxic T cells and recruitment of regulatory T cells) and non-immunological functions (mediating stemness and promoting angiogenesis). Moreover, MDSC may predict therapeutic response as a poor prognosis biomarker among multiple tumors. Accumulating evidence indicates targeting MDSC can reverse immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and improve therapeutic response either single or combination with immunotherapy. This review summarizes the phenotype and definite mechanisms of MDSCs in tumor progression, and provide new insights of targeting strategies regarding to their clinical applications.
