Immune checkpoints between epithelial-mesenchymal transition and autophagy: A conflicting triangle

Inhibitory immune checkpoint (ICP) molecules are pivotal in inhibiting innate and acquired antitumor immune responses, a mechanism frequently exploited by cancer cells to evade host immunity. These evasion strategies contribute to the complexity of cancer progression and therapeutic resistance. For this reason, ICP molecules have become targets for antitumor drugs, particularly monoclonal antibodies, collectively referred to as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), that counteract such cancer-associated immune suppression and restore antitumor immune responses. Over the last decade, however, it has become clear that tumor cell-associated ICPs can also induce tumor cell-intrinsic effects, in particular epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy). Both of these processes have profound implications for cancer metastasis and drug responsiveness. This article reviews the positive or negative cross-talk that tumor cell-associated ICPs undergo with autophagy and EMT. We discuss that tumor cell-associated ICPs are upregulated in response to the same stimuli that induce EMT. Moreover, ICPs themselves, when overexpressed, become an EMT-inducing stimulus. As regards the cross-talk with autophagy, ICPs have been shown to either stimulate or inhibit autophagy, while autophagy itself can either up- or downregulate the expression of ICPs. This dynamic equilibrium also extends to the autophagy-apoptosis axis, further emphasizing the complexities of cellular responses. Eventually, we delve into the intricate balance between autophagy and apoptosis, elucidating its role in the broader interplay of cellular dynamics influenced by ICPs. In the final part of this article, we speculate about the driving forces underlying the contradictory outcomes of the reciprocal, inhibitory, or stimulatory effects between ICPs, EMT, and autophagy. A conclusive identification of these driving forces may allow to achieve improved antitumor effects when using combinations of ICIs and compounds acting on EMT and/or autophagy. Prospectively, this may translate into increased and/or broadened therapeutic efficacy compared to what is currently achieved with ICI-based clinical protocols.

Infectious bursal disease virus VP5 triggers host shutoff in a transcription-dependent manner.

Viruses have evolved intricate mechanisms to evade host antiviral responses and exploit cellular resources by manipulating the expression profile of host genes. During infection, viruses encode proteins with shutoff activity to globally inhibit host protein synthesis, which is an effective strategy for immune evasion. In this study, compelling evidence shows that infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infection triggers the suppression of host protein synthesis. Furthermore, using both in vitro and in vivo viral infection models, we have identified that IBDV specifically impedes the transcription of host genes via the shutoff activity of viral VP5, simultaneously conferring advantages to IBDV infection in these circumstances. The proposed mechanism suggests that VP5 competitively binds to RanBP1, disrupting the RanGDP/GTP gradient. This disruption interferes with cellular nucleocytoplasmic transport, impairing the nuclear import of proteins bearing nuclear localization signals. The nuclear transport of pivotal transcriptional regulatory factors, such as p65 and IFN regulatory factor 7, is also compromised, leading to the inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines and interferon expression. This newly discovered strategy employed by IBDV enables them to manipulate host gene expression, providing novel insights into how viruses evade host immune responses and establish infections.IMPORTANCEViruses manipulate host processes at various levels to regulate or evade both innate and adaptive immune responses, promoting self-survival and efficient transmission. The "host shutoff," a global suppression of host gene expression mediated by various viruses, is considered a critical mechanism for evading immunity. In this study, we have validated the presence of host shutoff during infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) infection and additionally uncovered that the viral protein VP5 plays a pivotal role in inhibiting the overall synthesis of host proteins, including cytokines, through a transcription-dependent pathway. VP5 competitively binds with RanBP1, leading to disruption of the Ran protein cycle and consequently interfering with nucleocytoplasmic transport, which ultimately results in the suppression of host gene transcription. These findings unveil a novel strategy employed by IBDV to evade host innate immunity and rapidly establish infection. This study also suggests a novel supplement to understanding the pathway through which viruses inhibit host protein synthesis.

Adjuvanted Vaccine Induces Functional Antibodies against Pseudomonas aeruginosa Filamentous Bacteriophages.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa), a WHO priority 1 pathogen, resulted in approximately 559,000 deaths globally in 2019. Pa has a multitude of host-immune evasion strategies that enhance Pa virulence. Most clinical isolates of Pa are infected by a phage called Pf that has the ability to misdirect the host-immune response and provide structural integrity to biofilms. Previous studies demonstrate that vaccination against the coat protein (CoaB) of Pf4 virions can assist in the clearance of Pa from the dorsal wound model in mice. Here, a consensus peptide was derived from CoaB and conjugated to cross-reacting material 197 (CRM197). This conjugate was adjuvanted with a novel synthetic Toll-like receptor agonist (TLR) 4 agonist, INI-2002, and used to vaccinate mice. Mice vaccinated with CoaB-CRM conjugate and INI-2002 developed high anti-CoaB peptide-specific IgG antibody titers. Direct binding of the peptide-specific antibodies to whole-phage virus particles was demonstrated by ELISA. Furthermore, a functional assay demonstrated that antibodies generated from vaccinated mice disrupted the replicative cycle of Pf phages. The use of an adjuvanted phage vaccine targeting Pa is an innovative vaccine strategy with the potential to become a new tool targeting multi-drug-resistant Pa infections in high-risk populations.

Immune evasion by proteolytic shedding of natural killer group 2, member D ligands in Helicobacter pylori infection.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) uses various strategies that attenuate mucosal immunity to ensure its persistence in the stomach. We recently found evidence that H. pylori might modulate the natural killer group 2, member 2 (NKG2D) system. The NKG2D receptor and its ligands are a major activation system of natural killer and cytotoxic T cells, which are important for mucosal immunity and tumor immunosurveillance. The NKG2D system allows recognition and elimination of infected and transformed cells, however viruses and cancers often subvert its activation. Here we aimed to identify a potential evasion of the NKG2D system in H. pylori infection. We analyzed expression of NKG2D system genes in gastric tissues of H. pylori gastritis and gastric cancer patients, and performed cell-culture based infection experiments using H. pylori isogenic mutants and epithelial and NK cell lines. In biopsies of H. pylori gastritis patients, NKG2D receptor expression was reduced while NKG2D ligands accumulated in the lamina propria, suggesting NKG2D evasion. In vitro, H. pylori induced the transcription and proteolytic shedding of NKG2D ligands in stomach epithelial cells, and these effects were associated with specific H. pylori virulence factors. The H. pylori-driven release of soluble NKG2D ligands reduced the immunogenic visibility of infected cells and attenuated the cytotoxic activity of effector immune cells, specifically the anti-tumor activity of NK cells. H. pylori manipulates the NKG2D system. This so far unrecognized strategy of immune evasion by H. pylori could potentially facilitate chronic bacterial persistence and might also promote stomach cancer development by allowing transformed cells to escape immune recognition and grow unimpeded to overt malignancy.

Multi-objective search game: Long-term vs short-term

This study focuses on investigating a multi-objective search allocation game problem, specifically addressing the distribution of a search budget (player 1) across a searched area to detect an evading target (player 2). The game is defined as a two-person zero-sum game, as an optimal search strategy must consider the target’s optimal evasion strategy. Traditionally, the sole objective function in search theory literature has been to maximize the detection probability at the end of the time horizon. Our work extends the problem by proposing a multi-objective formulation that aims to strike a balance between long-term and short-term search objectives. In this context, the goal is to maximize the detection probability of the target at the end of each time period (e.g., hourly) throughout the time horizon. The main challenge in this problem lies in handling a multitude of objective functions, where the number of objective functions is an input data. To the best of our knowledge, no prior research has explored the multi-objective search allocation game. Therefore, we meticulously study the significance of this problem by highlighting the disparities and conflicts among these objectives. Subsequently, we propose a solution approach based on the epsilon-constraint algorithm, as well as a heuristic method that decomposes the problem into smaller multi-objective subproblems. We conduct a series of experiments to evaluate two key aspects of the methods: computation time and quality.

Biophysical Control of the Glioblastoma Immunosuppressive Microenvironment: Opportunities for Immunotherapy.

GBM is the most aggressive and common form of primary brain cancer with a dismal prognosis. Current GBM treatments have not improved patient survival, due to the propensity for tumor cell adaptation and immune evasion, leading to a persistent progression of the disease. In recent years, the tumor microenvironment (TME) has been identified as a critical regulator of these pro-tumorigenic changes, providing a complex array of biomolecular and biophysical signals that facilitate evasion strategies by modulating tumor cells, stromal cells, and immune populations. Efforts to unravel these complex TME interactions are necessary to improve GBM therapy. Immunotherapy is a promising treatment strategy that utilizes a patient's own immune system for tumor eradication and has exhibited exciting results in many cancer types; however, the highly immunosuppressive interactions between the immune cell populations and the GBM TME continue to present challenges. In order to elucidate these interactions, novel bioengineering models are being employed to decipher the mechanisms of immunologically "cold" GBMs. Additionally, these data are being leveraged to develop cell engineering strategies to bolster immunotherapy efficacy. This review presents an in-depth analysis of the biophysical interactions of the GBM TME and immune cell populations as well as the systems used to elucidate the underlying immunosuppressive mechanisms for improving current therapies.

Engineering immunomodulatory biomaterials to combat bacterial infections

Modulating the immune system using engineered materials is an emerging strategy to combat bacterial infections. Bacteria adopt immune evasion strategies to ensure their survival, ultimately leading to persistence and recurrence of infections. With a rise in antimicrobial resistance and a decrease in antibiotic efficacy, host-directed therapies using immunomodulatory biomaterials are a promising approach to infection management. Here, we review biomaterials developed to modulate the immune system, with an emphasis on innate immunity. We specifically highlight the recent implementation of functionalized surfaces for immunomodulation, including metal ion releasing coatings, stimuli-responsive polymeric coatings, and interleukin releasing surfaces. We also describe immunomodulatory nanoparticles, including lipid-based nanoparticles, biomimetic nanoparticles, and inorganic nanocarriers. Lastly, we explore immunomodulatory hydrogels used primarily for the treatment of wound infections. These approaches offer new strategies for treating bacterial infections and enhancing existing antimicrobial approaches, all while avoiding complications associated with antimicrobial resistance.

Exploring the natural products chemical space to abrogate the F3L-dsRNA interface of monkeypox virus to enhance the immune responses using molecular screening and free energy calculations.

Amid the ongoing monkeypox outbreak, there is an urgent need for the rapid development of effective therapeutic interventions capable of countering the immune evasion mechanisms employed by the monkeypox virus (MPXV). The evasion strategy involves the binding of the F3L protein to dsRNA, resulting in diminished interferon (IFN) production. Consequently, our current research focuses on utilizing virtual drug screening techniques to target the RNA binding domain of the F3L protein. Out of the 954 compounds within the South African natural compound database, only four demonstrated notable docking scores: -6.55, -6.47, -6.37, and -6.35kcal/mol. The dissociation constant (KD) analysis revealed a stronger binding affinity of the top hits 1-4 (-5.34, -5.32, -5.29, and -5.36kcal/mol) with the F3L in the MPXV. All-atom simulations of the top-ranked hits 1 to 4 consistently exhibited stable dynamics, suggesting their potential to interact effectively with interface residues. This was further substantiated through analyses of parameters such as radius of gyration (Rg), Root Mean Square Fluctuation, and hydrogen bonding. Cumulative assessments of binding free energy confirmed the top-performing candidates among all the compounds, with values of -35.90, -52.74, -28.17, and -32.11kcal/mol for top hits 1-4, respectively. These results indicate that compounds top hit 1-4 could hold significant promise for advancing innovative drug therapies, suggesting their suitability for both in vivo and in vitro experiments.

The Effect of Profitability, Debt Policy, Political Connections, Economic Crisis on Tax Aggressiveness

The primary goal of this study is to analyze the impact of economic and political power, debt policy, and political influence on tax aggressiveness during times of economic uncertainty. In this study, we choose as examples health and pharmaceutical firms trading on the Indonesia Stock Exchange between the years 2018 and 2021. To test for the predicted difference between before and after the covid 19 epidemic, researchers utilized multiple regression and other tests (paired sample t-test) in SPSS version 23. This research backs up the notion that fiscal stability and profitability affect tax aggressiveness. There was no difference in the prevalence of tax evasion strategies either before or after the Covid 19 pandemic, and neither debt policies nor political relationships seemed to have any influence on tax aggression. Using research findings to inform decision making or policy implementation may boost a company's future success. In addition to building on earlier replication attempts, this work also puts to the test comparisons made before and during the COVID-19 epidemic, making it a significant piece of research.

Mpox global health emergency: Insights into the virus, immune responses, and advancements in vaccines PART I: Insights into the virus and immune responses.

Mpox, the zoonotic disease caused by Monkeypox virus (MPXV), is currently a global health emergency. This review (Part I) aims to provide insights into the virus life cycle, epidemiology, host immune responses, and immune evasion mechanisms. Mpox symptoms is similar to smallpox but with lower mortality rates and lower transmissibility. In the past, the virus has been endemic in Central (Clade I) and West (Clade II) African countries. The first outbreak in outside Africa is reported in the United States in 2003. A multi-country outbreak across all continents occurred in 2022, predominantly driven by Clade II. Recently, the emergence of Clade Ib with sustained person-to-person transmission characteristic in the 2023-2024 outbreaks has raised significant public health concerns. Its apparent capacity for rapid spread and potential for causing severe disease highlight the need for enhanced surveillance, especially in regions not traditionally affected by Mpox. Immune responses induced by MPXV infection in humans and animal models provide the insights into the key step in which the host immune response recognizes and responds to the infection. The sophisticated immune evasion strategy by MPXV at both innate and adaptive arms also emerges that are useful for vaccine-based control measures. Taken together, understanding MPXV life cycle, epidemiology and immune response will facilitate better control, limit viral spread, and provide important insights for vaccine development.

Innate immune responses to SARS-CoV-2.

This chapter provides an overview of the innate immune response to SARS-CoV-2, focusing on the recognition, activation, and evasion strategies employed by the virus. The innate immune system plays a crucial role in the early defense against viral infections, and understanding its response to SARS-CoV-2 is essential for developing effective therapeutic approaches. The chapter begins by explaining the basics of the innate immune system, including its components and salient features. It discusses the various pattern recognition receptors involved in recognizing SARS-CoV-2, such as toll-like receptors, RIG-I-like receptors, NOD-like receptors, and other cytosolic sensors. The binding and entry of the virus into host cells and subsequent activation of innate immune cells, including neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, NK cells, and ILCs, are explored. Furthermore, the secretion of key cytokines and chemokines, including type I interferons, IL-6, IL-17, and TNF-alpha, is discussed as part of the innate immune response. The concept of PANoptosis, involving programmed cell death mechanisms, is introduced as a significant aspect of the response to SARS-CoV-2. The chapter also addresses the innate immune evasion strategies employed by SARS-CoV-2, which allow the virus to evade or subvert the host immune response, contributing to viral persistence. Understanding these strategies is crucial for developing targeted therapies against the virus.

African swine fever virus MGF360-4L protein attenuates type I interferon response by suppressing the phosphorylation of IRF3.

African swine fever (ASF) is a highly contagious and lethal disease of swine caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV), and the mortality rate caused by virulent stains can approach 100%. Many ASFV viral proteins suppress the interferon production to evade the host's innate immune responses. However, whether ASFV MGF360-4L could inhibit type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling pathway and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Our study, indicated that ASFV MGF360-4L could negatively regulates the cGAS-STING mediated IFN-I signaling pathway. Overexpressing ASFV MGF360-4L could inhibit the cGAS/STING signaling pathway by inhibiting the interferon-β promoter activity, which was induced by cGAS/STING, TBK1, and IRF3-5D, and further reduced the transcriptional levels of ISG15, ISG54, ISG56, STAT1, STAT2, and TYK2. Confocal microscopy and immunoprecipitation revealed that MGF360-4L co-localized and interacted with IRF3, and WB revealed that ASFV MGF360-4L suppressed the phosphorylation of IRF3. 4L-F2 (75-162 aa) and 4L-F3 (146-387 aa) were the crucial immunosuppressive domains and sites. Altogether, our study reveals ASFV MGF360-4L inhibited cGAS-STING mediated IFN-I signaling pathways, which provides insights into an evasion strategy of ASFV involving in host's innate immune responses.

Game Tree Search-based Impulsive Orbital Pursuit–Evasion Game with Limited Actions

This paper focuses on the impulsive orbital pursuit–evasion game (OPEG) with limited action sets for the pursuer and evader. Initially, a mathematical model is developed by combining game theory and orbital dynamics, forming a finite-round impulsive OPEG problem. The problem is then formulated as a bilateral optimization problem, employing a minimum-maximum optimization index based on terminal distance. To tackle this problem, an algorithm based on game tree search is designed, enabling the determination of the optimal pursuit–evasion strategy with limited action sets. Additionally, we explore the influence of the initial pursuing orientation on OPEG. The optimal initial pursuit orientation is analytically derived using relative motion dynamics under uncontrolled conditions. Furthermore, considering factors such as the initial status of the pursuit spacecraft, initial relative distance, transfer time, and maneuverability, the impulsive OPEG problem with limited action sets is numerically solved using game tree search. The findings of this study showcase the efficacy of game tree search in addressing impulsive OPEG problems with limited action sets. The study also demonstrates that the initial pursuing orientation selection at the start of the game plays a crucial role in increasing the success rate of pursuit. The research findings of this study have important implications for future practical engineering applications.

Peripheral NK cell phenotypic alteration and dysfunctional state post hepatitis B subviral particles stimulation in CHB patients: evading immune surveillance.

The relationship between chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection and natural killer (NK) cell dysfunction is well-established, but the specific role of HBV viral antigens in driving NK cell impairment in patients with CHB remains unclear. This study investigates the modulatory effects of hepatitis B virus subviral particles (HBVsvp, a representative model for HBsAg) on the phenotypic regulation (activating and inhibitory receptors), cytokine production and cytotoxic potential of peripheral blood mononuclear cell-derived natural killer cells (PBMCs-derived NK cell), which contributes to NK cell dysfunction in CHB infection, potentially serving as an effective HBV immune evasion strategy by the virus. NK cells were isolated from peripheral blood of patients with CHB (n=5) and healthy individuals (n=5), stimulated with HBVsvp. Subsequent flow cytometric characterization involved assessing changes in activating (NKp46 and NKG2D) and inhibitory (CD94) receptors expression, quantifying TNF-α and IFN- γ cytokine secretion, and evaluating the cytotoxic response against HepG2.2.15 cells with subsequent HBVsvp quantification. In CHB patients, in vitro exposure of PBMCs-derived NK cell with HBVsvp (represent HBsAg model) significantly reduced NK cell-activating receptors expression (P = 0.022), increased expression of CD94 + NK cells (p = 0.029), accompanied with a reduced TNF-α - IFN-γ cytokine levels, and impaired cytotoxic capacity (evidenced by increased cell proliferation and elevated HBVsvp levels in co-cultures with HepG2.2.15 cells in a time-dependent), relative to healthy donors. These findings suggest that HBVsvp may induce dysfunctional NK cell responses characterized by phenotypic imbalance with subsequent reduction in cytokine and cytotoxic levels, indicating HBVsvp immunosuppressive effect that compromises antiviral defense in CHB patients. These data enhance our understanding of NK cell interactions with HBsAg and highlight the potential for targeting CD94 inhibitory receptors to restore NK cell function as an immunotherapeutic approach. Further clinical research is needed to validate these observations and establish their utility as reliable biomarkers.

Unraveling the complex interplay: immunopathology and immune evasion strategies of alphaviruses with emphasis on neurological implications.

Arthritogenic alphaviruses pose a significant public health concern due to their ability to cause joint inflammation, with emerging evidence of potential neurological consequences. In this review, we examine the immunopathology and immune evasion strategies employed by these viruses, highlighting their complex mechanisms of pathogenesis and neurological implications. We delve into how these viruses manipulate host immune responses, modulate inflammatory pathways, and potentially establish persistent infections. Further, we explore their ability to breach the blood-brain barrier, triggering neurological complications, and how co-infections exacerbate neurological outcomes. This review synthesizes current research to provide a comprehensive overview of the immunopathological mechanisms driving arthritogenic alphavirus infections and their impact on neurological health. By highlighting knowledge gaps, it underscores the need for research to unravel the complexities of virus-host interactions. This deeper understanding is crucial for developing targeted therapies to address both joint and neurological manifestations of these infections.

OPTIMAL NUMBER OF PURSUERS IN THE GAME ON THE 1-SKELETON OF TESSERACT

The problem is to find the optimal number of pursuers in the game, to construct strategies for the pursuers in pursuit game, and evasion strategy in evasion game.

Effect of Mycolic Acids on Host Immunity and Lipid Metabolism.

Mycolic acids constitute pivotal constituents within the cell wall structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Due to their structural diversity, the composition of mycolic acids exhibits substantial variations among different strains, endowing them with the distinctive label of being the 'signature' feature of mycobacterial species. Within Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the primary classes of mycolic acids include α-, keto-, and methoxy-mycolic acids. While these mycolic acids are predominantly esterified to the cell wall components (such as arabinogalactan, alginate, or glucose) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a fraction of free mycolic acids are secreted during in vitro growth of the bacterium. Remarkably, different types of mycolic acids possess varying capabilities to induce foamy macro-phages and trigger immune responses. Additionally, mycolic acids play a regulatory role in the lipid metabolism of host cells, thereby exerting influence over the progression of tuberculosis. Consequently, the multifaceted properties of mycolic acids shape the immune evasion strategy employed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A comprehensive understanding of mycolic acids is of paramount significance in the pursuit of developing tuberculosis therapeutics and unraveling the intricacies of its pathogenic mechanisms.

A Review of Antibiotic Resistance: Global Reports, Sources, Incidents, Resistance Strategies, and Control Plans

Antimicrobial resistance is a major global issue that is only getting worse. Acquired resistance is defined by the emergence of coding genes for strategies of drug evasion from antimicrobial agents. The Enterobacteriaceae family has been linked to this behavior. Antibiotics like beta-lactams and carbapenems, which are the most used types, are used to treat bacterial infections. From a clinical perspective, research on antibiotic resistance is very important because of the effects it has on human health. Furthermore, one of the rare instances of evolution that can be researched in real time is antibiotic resistance. Therefore, doctors, evolutionary biologists, and ecologists are interested in understanding the general processes involved in the acquisition of antibiotic resistance. Environmental microbes are the source of antibiotic resistance genes that are currently found in human diseases. Therefore, research on both natural and medical environments is necessary to fully comprehend the emergence of antibiotic resistance. Recent findings about the evolutionary processes underlying resistance suggest that viability costs, the founder effect, and ecological connectivity are significant barriers that control the spread of resistance from environmental bacteria to diseases.

Beyond traditional medications: exploring novel and potential inhibitors of trypanothione reductase (LmTr) of Leishmania parasites

The trypanothione reductase enzyme, which neutralizes the reactive oxygen species produced inside the macrophages to kill the parasites, is one of the evasion strategies Leishmania uses to survive inside the cells. The vitality of the parasite depends on Leishmania major trypanothione reductase (LmTr), a NADPH-dependent flavoprotein oxidoreductase essential for thiol metabolism. Since this enzyme is distinct and lacking in humans, we focused on it in our study to screen for new inhibitors to combat leishmaniasis. Using the I-TASSER server, a three-dimensional model of LmTr was generated. The Autodock vina program was used in high-throughput virtual screening of the ZINC database. The top seven molecules were ranked according to their binding affinity. The compounds with the highest binding affinities and the right number of hydrogen bonds were chosen. These compounds may be effective at inhibiting the target enzyme’s (LmTr) activity, making them new leishmaniasis treatments. These compounds may serve as a useful starting point for a hit-to-lead approach in the quest for new anti-Leishmania drugs that are more efficient and less cytotoxic. The average node degree is 5.09, the average local clustering coefficient is 0.868, and the PPI enrichment p-value is 8.9e-06, indicating that it is sufficiently connected to regulate the network. TRYR (LmTr protein) also interacts physically with ten additional proteins in the pathogenesis network. The findings of the study indicated that successfully suppressing the LmTr protein in vitro and in vivo may finally result in regulating the L. major pathogenesis. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
