The changes in ICAM-1 gene expression we observed may merely reflect differences in inflammatory cell infiltration, but also provide further evidence of a mechanism for retarded entry of inflammatory cells into the CNS in mice receiving IGF-1 or IGF-1/IGFBP3.

|
During MS neuropathology, antigen stimulated dendritic cells begin to secrete lymphocyte activator signals such as IL-23.IL-23, an interleukin member of the IL-12 family interacts with its membrane receptor to activate JAK kinases (JAK2 and TYK2) and then signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)3 and STAT4, whose action together with retinoid-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt) transcription factor leads to the differentiation and activation of the Th17 pathway. Therefore, IL-23, as a molecule involved in the stabilization and amplification of the Th17 phenotype and induction of the inflammatory response, is considered an interesting therapeutic target to treat MS.

No significant differences for other lipids and lipid ratios were found in patient’s post-treatment compared with pre-treatment levels.Regarding apolipoproteins, a significant increase in ApoE was found at 12 months of treatment.At 6 months, patients had higher PPARγ mRNA expression in comparison to the baseline.Higher CD36 gene expression was also observed at 6 months in comparison to baseline .
|
Fingolimod was the first oral disease-modifying treatment (DMT) approved in MS. Fingolimod is a synthetic sphingosine analogue which once phosphorylated to sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) binds to several S1P receptors (S1PR).By inducing internalization and degradation of S1PR1, phospho-FTY720 impairs this egress, resulting in a significant reduction of circulating T and B cells and infiltration in the CNS.Within circulation, S1P is mainly present in high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), and mediates the regulatory properties of this lipoprotein in immune responses.PPARs are ligand-activated transcriptional factors involved in the regulation of lipid and glucose metabolism and adaptive and innate immunity.PPAR can regulate gene expression also by interfering with other transcriptional factors and other proteins implicated in human disease. Cluster of Differentiation 36 (CD36) is a membrane receptor upregulated by PPARγ expressed in many cells that modulates immune functions and implicated in reparative mechanisms of MS lesions.

In this study, fingolimod significantly reduced the mean ARR in 47.2 and 88.6% at 1 and 2 years, respectively, and the percentage of relapse-free patients was ~75% at the end of the study without differences between the subgroups.In lymphocyte populations, no significant differences between HC and patients were observed before treatment, except for the percentage of LB1 cells composed mostly of CD11b+ cells, which was smaller in patients.We could verify that fingolimod affected practically all lymphocyte populations and subpopulations of B, T, and NK cells.As expected, a reduction of the percentages of CD3+, CD4+, CD20+, CD19+, TCM and TN, memory B (switched and no-switched), regulatory B, NK bright, and cytokine-producing cells (IFN, IL-17, and IL-2) was observed after treatment, with a relative increase in effector memory T (TEM), terminally differentiated effector T (TEMRA), NK, NK dim, NKT, Tregs, nave B, immature B, transitional B, CD5+ B, LB1, and plasmablast cells.Patients who achieved NEDA-3 and NEDA-4 status at 1 year had a significantly higher percentage of NK bright and plasmablast cells and a lower proportion of NK dim and IL-2-producing cells at baseline than NR patients.These patients were significantly more resistant to decreases in percentages of NK bright and LB1 cells and showed a greater decline of CD8 nave T and CD8+ CCR4+ CCR6+ cells than NR patients after 6 months of treatment.Fingolimod exerts powerful transcriptional effects on PBMCs of MS patients.A total of 16,818 filtered probes were used for the differential analyses, resulting in the identification of 3,805 upregulated and 3,741 downregulated genes in response to fingolimod.
|
Such therapies as fingolimod (Gilenya), a functional sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) antagonist, have been developed to retain the autoreactive lymphocytes within the lymph nodes. The phosphorylated form of fingolimod binds to four of five S1P-receptors (S1P1 and S1P3–5), resulting in aberrant internalization and degradation of the receptor on the cell surface and blockade of the egress and recirculation of activated CCR7+ and CD62+ lymphocytes from lymph nodes, such as central memory (TCM) and nave T (TN) cells.In addition, S1P receptors are differentially expressed in several tissues and have significant roles in a variety of cellular responses, including survival, inhibition of apoptosis, cardioprotection, activation of innate and adaptive immune systems, Treg differentiation, and promoting Th1 and Th17 differentiation in vitro and in vivo.

HDAC inhibition can modulate encephalitogenic CD4 + T cells.One of the mechanisms by which treatment with VPA and the T3 precursor might be acting in the brain is by promoting oligodendrocyte lineage progression. Our data indicate that an acute treatment with VPA and T4 after the onset of EAE can produce persistent clinically relevant therapeutic effects by limiting the pathogenic immune reactions while promoting myelin gene expression.

Overexpression of NDUFA6Flag rescues the EAE-mediated visual dysfunction , EAE-mediated RGC loss , RNFL thinning , EAE axonal degeneration,RGC apoptosis and rescues EAE-mediated complex I dysfunction.NDUFA6 gene therapy provided long-term suppression of neurodegeneration in the EAE animal model suggesting that it may also ameliorate the mitochondrial dysfunction associated with permanent disability in optic neuritis and MS patients.
|
Mitochondrial dysfunction is recognized as one of the major contributing factors associated with neuronal and axonal loss in MS.It is a major target for damage induced by oxidative stress. Overall, it is believed that mitochondrial NDUFA6 is a crucial member in normal functioning of mitochondrial complex I and any alterations to this subunit adversely impacts respiratory chain function and ultimately cell viability.

To assess whether FTY720 upregulates TCF7 expression in T cells from RRMS patients, we activated T-RRMS cells in the presence or absence of FTY720 and found higher TCF7 expression in FTY720-treated T-RRMS cells .Patients treated with FTY720 showed a significant reduction in circulating CD4 T cells.Activation of T cells in presence of FTY720 showed a less inflammatory phenotype with reduced production of IFN-γ and GZMB.
|
This decreased effector phenotype of FTY720-treated T cells was dependent on the upregulation of TCF-1.FTY720-induced TCF-1 downregulated the pathogenic cytokines IFN-γ and GZMB by binding to their promoter/enhancer regions and mediating epigenetic modifications.

PLP mRNA-containing oligodendroglia also were more numerous and relative PLP mRNA levels per oligodendrocyte were higher in lesions of IGF-I-treated rats. Finally, a significantly higher proportion of proliferating cells were oligodendroglia-like cells in lesions of IGF-I-treated rats.
|
Several lines of evidence suggest that insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) might be useful in reducing myelin breakdown and promoting myelin regeneration in demyelinating diseases. IGF-I promotes the survival of oligodendroglia and the formation of myelin sheaths in vitro. The content of myelin also is increased in the central nervous system of transgenic mice that overexpress IGF-I.

C57BL/6 female mice
|
Therapeutic administration of MSC-VP/IFN-β reduced the severity of disease in EAE.MSCs-VP/IFN-β downregulated the levels of IL-17 expression and upregulated the characteristic anti-inflammatory cytokine i.e., IL-10 and Treg related transcription factor, Foxp3. A robust increase in anti-inflammatory gene expression, i.e., IL-10 and downregulation of inflammatory cytokines, IL-17, was observed in mice treated with MSCs-VP/IFN-β when compared with MSCs. MSCs-VP/IFN-β treated groups increased the frequency of Treg cells.
|
Interferon-β (IFN-β) is commonly used as a disease modifying drug for the treatment of Relapseremitting multiple sclerosis (RR-MS). The expression of TGF-β and IL-10 under the control of IFN-β may be one of the most important mechanisms which play a critical role in the induction of Treg cells in EAE mice.

TH:bFGF-treated mice showed a lower number of T cells and macrophages (butalso of inammatory perivascular inltrates) both in theCNS parenchyma and in the leptomeningeal space and a signicant increase of oligoden-drocyte precursors (platelet derived growth factor-receptor α(PDGFRα)+cells) in areas of demyelination andaxonal loss.A signicant decrease of the per-centage of spinal cord demyelination and axonal loss was also observed in TH:bFGF-treated mice. A signicant increase of proteolipidprotein (PLP)-expressing oligodendrocytes was also measured in TH:bFGF-treated mice .Neuropathological ndings indicate that the sustained disease-ameliorating effect observed after the treatment with the TH:bFGF vector was associated with a signi-cant decrease of the extent of CNS demyelination andaxonal loss.
|
We attribute the disease-ameliorating effect to the FGF-II-mediated recruitment into demyelinating areas of oligodendrocyte precursors located in close vicinity to or surviving within demyelinating lesions which, in turn, differentiated into myelin-forming cells.

EAE score was greatly reduced after two weeks of oral gavage of Vandetanib and Dasatinib.Vandetanib was more effective than Dasatinib in terms of EAE treatment, which may be owing to the stronger inhibition of proinflammatory gene induction by Vandetanib compared with Dasatinib. There was significantly less Th17 cells brain infiltration after Vandetanib and Dasatinib treatment, and Th17 and Th1 cell polarization were both significantly reduced in the spleen after treatment with these inhibitors.

|
Animals receiving PLP-secreting fibroblasts showed significant reductions of clinical signs.Histological studies in these mice showed either no inflammatory infiltrates or scattered perivascular or subarachnoid infiltrates, and no demyelination.The injection of PLP-secreting fibroblasts reduces the frequency and severity of EAE relapses and ameliorates the pathological destruction.Treatment of EAE mice with PLP-secreting cells results in the generation of antiinflammatory cytokines, in contrast with untreated EAE mice, which have elevated levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ.
|
This strategy was devised to provide a systemic, antigen-specific signal to pathogenic T cells in the absence of costimulation and, hence, render them anergic and this antigen-specific therapy acts by a cytokine-induced pathway.

Here, we demonstrated that NaB induced the expression of TGFβ mRNA and protein in normal as well as proteolipid protein-primed splenocytes. Presence of a consensus STAT6-binding site in the promoter of TGFβ gene, activation of STAT6 in splenocytes by NaB, recruitment of STAT6 to the TGFβ promoter by NaB, and abrogation of NaB-induced expression of TGFβ in splenocytes by siRNA knockdown of STAT6 suggest that NaB induces the expression of TGFβ via activation of STAT6.

The antisense treatment did not alter inflammation of the spinal cord. While AS-PS oligonucleotides were unsuitable for intrathecal administration, AS-POcrg2 were not toxic and reduced paralysis due to EAE.

The role of CRG-2 protein (murine IP-10) in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis, was tested by blocking crg-2 mRNA synthesis using chronic infusion of antisense oligonucleotides into lumbar subarachnoid space by osmotic minipumps.

Interleukin 23 (IL-23), which belongs to the interleukin 12 families, plays a vital role in the proliferation of T lymphocytes. Two dif- ferent subunits (specific subunit: IL23A or IL-23p19) and general subunit (IL12Rβ1) are found in the structure of het- erodimer receptors of this cytokine [4]. In addition, Th17 cells secrete IL-17 and IL-23 under the influence of vari- ous factors, including the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) and IL-6. These cytokines lead to Th17 and Th1 cell activation, development of inflammation, and suppres- sion of the immune system

These findings expand the knowledge of mechanisms promoting inflammatory demyelinating CNS disease and suggest that HA anchored to EC CD44 represents a therapeutic target to reduce immune cell infiltration into the brain.

We found that patients with the IRF5 rs2004640-TT and rs47281420-AA genotype exerted a poor pharmacological response to IFNb compared with patients carrying the respective G-alleles (P 0.0006 and P 0.0023, respectively). Moreover, patients with the rs2004640-TT genotype developed more magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based T2 lesions during IFNb treatment (P 0.003). Accordingly, an association between MRI-based non-responder status and rs2004640-TT genotype was observed (P 0.010). For the rs4728142-AA genotype a trend of an association with more T2 lesions during IFNb treatment and MRI-based non-responder status was observed (P 0.103 and P 0.154, respectively).
|
Clinical non-responders were characterized by an increased expression of IFN response genes before the start of therapy, and a lack of a pharmacologically induced increase in IFN response gene activity. Because Interferon Regulatory Factor 5 (IRF5) is a master regulator of IFN-activity, we carried out a candidate gene study of IRF5 gene variants in relation to the pharmacological and clinical response upon IFNb treatment

We identified that the endogenous IFN-b from serum of RRMS patients induced a significantly lower IFN-inducible gene expression in comparison with healthy controls. In addition, in vitro studies have revealed deficient endogenous and exogenous IFN-b signaling in the CD4+ cells derived from patients with MS. Interestingly, upon inhibition of the endogenous IFN-b signaling by silencing IFN regulatory factor (IRF) 7 gene expression, the resting CD4+ T cells secreted significantly higher level of IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-21, IL-22, and IL-9, suggesting that endogenous IFN-b suppresses the secretion of these pathogenic cytokines.

Treatment of immune-incompetent PLP mutants did not provide evidence for a direct, neuroprotective effect of the medication. When treatment was terminated, no rebound of neuroinflammation occurred and histopathological improvement was preserved for at least 75 days without treatment. After disease onset, teriflunomide halted ongoing axonal perturbation and enabled a recovery of dendritic arborization by surviving ganglion cells. However, neither neuron loss nor clinical features were ameliorated, likely due to already advanced neurodegeneration before treatment onset.
|
Preventive treatment with teriflunomide attenuated the increase in number of CD8+ cytotoxic effector T cells and fostered the proliferation of CD8+ CD122+ PD-1+ regulatory T cells in the CNS

In the CNS, TNFa is produced by astrocytes and microglia (4). Microglia may be the main producer of TNFIx, because they respond to produce TNFcr much faster than astrocytes and respond to much lower concentration of lipopolysacclharide (LPS) than do astrocytes (4). In this study, we examined the effects ofvesnarinone on TNFa production by microglia. The effects on the other functions of microglia such as proliferation, expression of major histocompatibility complex antigen, enzyme activity and superoxide anion formation were also examined.
|
Tumor necrosis factor 01 (TNFcr) is considered to play a critical role in the development of various pathological processes in the central nervous system (CNS), such as neuronal degeneration, demyelination and gliosis. In order to search for agents which suppress TNFcx production in the CNS for future treatment of these pathological conditions, the effects of a synthetic oral inotropic agent, vesnarinone, on murine microglia were examined. Vesnarinone significantly suppressed TNFa production by microglia in a dose-dependent manner, without affecting their viability, enzyme activity or expression of the major histocompatibility complex.

IFN-r treatment leads to the activation of NF-B in a time-dependent manner, which is inhibited in the presence of anti-TNF-β-neutralizing antibody. These results indicate that IFN-+-induced TNF-β production and subsequent NF-B activation are integral parts of the mechanism of IFN-+-induced CD40 expression
|
we have discovered that a major component of IFN-r-induced CD40 expression involves the endogenous production of the cytokine TNF-r. The inclusion of anti-TNF-r-neutralizing antibody significantly inhibits IFN-r-induced CD40 mRNA and CD40 promoter activity. IFN-r-induced CD40 protein expression is attenuated in TNF-r-deficient microglia and can be restored with exogenous TNF-r. Sitedirected mutagenesis studies demonstrate that three of the four NF-B elements in the CD40 promoter are required for IFN-r-induced CD40 promoter activity

our results suggested that MMF could potentially be used as a drug to minimize bone loss as a promising alternative to oral antioxidants. MMF activates endogenous antoxidant pathways like HO-1 and Nrf2, which allow the body to modulate levels of ROS with innate gene regulation and protein localization
|
The multiple sclerosis drug Tecfidera contains dimethylfumarate, which is rapidly metabolized to monomethylfumarate (MMF); MMF is thought to function through nuclear factor erythroid-derived-2-like-2 (Nrf2), a transcription factor activated by oxidative stress which induces the expression of endogenous antioxidant systems.

Elevated nuclear FTY720-P is associated with decreased HDAC activity and increased histone acetylation at H3K18 and H3K23 in LM/Bc MEFs. Treatment of LM/Bc MEFs with FTY720 and a selective Sphk2 inhibitor, ABC294640, significantly reduces the amount of FTY720-P that accumulates in the nucleus. The data provide insight into the relative amounts of FTY720-P generated in the nuclear versus cytoplasmic subcellular compartments after FTY720 treatment and the specific Sphk isoforms involved
|
The results of this study suggest that FTY720-induced NTDs may involve multiple mechanisms, including: (1) sustained and/or altered S1P receptor activation and signaling by FTY720-P produced in the cytoplasm and (2) HDAC inhibition and histone hyperacetylation by FTY720-P generated in the nucleus that could lead to epigenetic changes in gene regulation

We therefore conclude that LX007 exhibits anti-inflammatory effects in LPS-stimulated microglial cells by inhibiting pro-inflammatory mediators corresponding to the downregulating of MAPKs and NF-κB activation. Taken together, the present study indicated that LX007 may have potential to be developed into an anti-inflammatory agent in the future.

LX007 inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) expression, as well as their regulatory geneinducible NO syntheses (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in LPS-treated primary microglia. LPS-induced production from microglia of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) was also significantly attenuated by LX007. Mechanistically, LX007 potently suppressed phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p65 nuclear translocation in LPS-induced microglia.

Our results showed that over-expression of mutant human APP gene in the hippocampus led to learning and memory deficits concomitant with gliosis and pro-inflammatory responses.Interestingly, treatment of AD-modeled rats with IFNβ ameliorated memory impairments possibly through suppressing gliosis and shifting from pro-inflammatory toward anti-inflammatory status, suggesting that IFNβ may be a promising therapeutic agent to improve cognitive functions and modulate inflammatory responses in an AD-like neurodegenerative context.
|
Despite the fact that GFP expression level was lower than APP expression level, the lentiviral system used in this study resulted in an effective and widespread transduction of hippocampal neurons. Difference observed in expression of GFP and APP genes may be due to the particular position of these genes in FsynIGW lentiviral vector. As shown in Fig. 2A, APP gene sequence is upstream of IRES2-GFP sequence. IRES2 sequence allows bicistronic expression of APP and GFP under a neuron-specific promoter, synapsin. It has been indicated that transduced cells with a variety of bicistronic LV strongly express upstream gene of IRES sequence, whereas GFP expression (downstream gene of IRES sequence) is very low or undetectable in these cells

Phoenixin-14 (PNX-14) is a ligand for the G protein-coupled receptor GPR173, which we demonstrate to be expressed in astrocytes and suppressed by exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress resulting from injury or disease leads to the unfolded protein response, which is mediated by the activation of transcription factors including eIF-2α, ATF4, and CHOP, and regulated by GADD34. ER stress also leads to a robust neuroinfammatory response, which is mediated by HMGB1-induced activation of the NLRP3 infammasome and subsequent production of IL-1β and IL-18

Clofazimine was initially identified as an inhibitor of intracellular T cell receptor-mediated signaling leading to the transcriptional activation of human interleukin-2 gene in T cells from a screen of the Johns Hopkins Drug Library. A systematic mechanistic deconvolution revealed that clofazimine selectively blocked the Kv1.3 channel activity, perturbing the oscillation frequency of the calcium-release activated calcium channel, which in turn led to the inhibition of the calcineurin-NFAT signaling pathway.

Subsequent mechanistic studies revealed that kalopanaxsaponin A inhibited LPS-induced DNA binding activities of NF-κB and AP-1, and the phosphorylation of JNK without affecting other MAP kinases. Furthermore, kalopanaxsaponin A inhibited the intracellular ROS production with upregulation of anti-infl ammatory hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression. Based on the previous reports that JNK pathway is largely involved in iNOS and proinfl ammatory cytokine gene expression via modulating NF-κB/AP-1 and ROS, our data collectively suggest that inhibition of JNK pathway plays a key role in anti-infl ammatory effects of kalopanaxsaponin A in LPS-stimulated microglia

Therapy resulted in a significant decrease in the severity of histopathologic inflammatory lesions. In the CNS, treatment with either vector suppressed IL-12 and IFN-c mRNA expression, while IL-4 and TGF-b1 mRNA levels were increased compared with control mice.

As well, cytokine gene therapy enhanced the production of endogenous regulatory cytokines in lymph node cells and CNS tissue.

Thus, it seems that IFN-β 1a not only decreased pathogenic inflammatory responses but also modulated the expression of RIG-1 to protect the patients from infectious diseases and upregulation of IFN-I in a positive feedback

Melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) and retinoic acid-inducible gene 1 (RIG-1) are two critical pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs), which detect intracytoplasmic intracellular dsRNA [10–13]. MDA5 and RIG-1 use the same pathway; they both use interferon promoter stimulator 1 (IPS1) to activate two important transcription factors including interferon regulatory transcription factor 3 (IRF3) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB)

We demonstrate that mice treated prophylactically are protected from developing disease and neurological deficits. More importantly, we demonstrate that when given to mice with preexisting disease, ranging from mild neurological deficits to severe paralysis, the gene immunotherapy abrogated CNS inflammation and significantly reversed clinical symptoms of disease.
|
We show that by harnessing the tolerogenic nature of the liver, this powerful gene immunotherapy restores immune tolerance by inducing functional MOG-specific regulatory T cells (Tregs) in vivo, independent of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restrictions
