AIMp1 Potentiates TH1 Polarization and Is Critical for Effective Antitumor and Antiviral Immunity

چکیده
Dendritic cells (DCs) must integrate a broad array of environmental cues to exact control over downstream immune responses including TH polarization. The multienzyme aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase complex component AIMp1/p43 responds to cellular stress and exerts pro-inflammatory functions; however, a role for DC-expressed AIMp1 in TH polarization has not previously been shown. Here, we demonstrate that the absence of AIMp1 in bone marrow-derived DC (BMDC) significantly impairs cytokine and costimulatory molecule expression, p38 MAPK signaling, and TH1 polarization of cocultured T-cells while significantly dysregulating immune-related gene expression. These deficits resulted in significantly compromised BMDC vaccine-mediated protection against melanoma. AIMp1 within the host was also critical for innate and adaptive antiviral immunity against influenza virus infection in vivo. Cancer patients with AIMp1 expression levels in the highest tertiles exhibited a 70% survival advantage at 15-year postdiagnosis as determined by bioinformatics analysis of nearly 9,000 primary human tumor samples in The Cancer Genome Atlas database. These data establish the importance of AIMp1 for the effective governance of antitumor and antiviral immune responses.

AIMP1 deficiency enhances airway hyperreactivity in mice via increased TH2 immune responses.
Aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex-interacting multicomplex protein 1 (AIMP1) is known as a novel cytokine carrying out a variety of biological activities, including angiogenesis and wound repair. In our previous reports AIMP1 was demonstrated to induce TH1 polarization. However, the effects of AIMP1 deficiency in TH1 or TH2 immune disorders remain unclear. In this study, we characterized phenot...

T-bet and eomesodermin are required for T cell-mediated antitumor immune responses.
Cell-mediated adaptive immunity is very important in tumor immune surveillance and tumor vaccination. However, the genetic program underlying an effective adaptive antitumor immunity is elusive. T-bet and Eomesodermin (Eomes) have been suggested to be master regulators of Th1 cells and CD8(+) T cells. However, whether they are important for T cell-mediated antitumor immunity is controversial. I...
متن کاملRegulation of Antitumor Immune Responses by the IL-12 Family Cytokines, IL-12, IL-23, and IL-27
The interleukin (IL)-12 family, which is composed of heterodimeric cytokines including IL-12, IL-23, and IL-27, is produced by antigen-presenting cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells and plays critical roles in the regulation of helper T (Th) cell differentiation. IL-12 induces IFN-γ production by NK and T cells and differentiation to Th1 cells. IL-23 induces IL-17 production by memory...
متن کاملImmunotherapeutic Potential of B7-DC (PD-L2) Cross-Linking Antibody In Conferring Antitumor Immunity
A naturally occurring human antibody potentiates dendritic cell function on cross-linking B7-DC (PD-L2), supporting robust T-cell responses in vitro. Moreover, treatment of dendritic cells with B7-DC cross-linking antibody resulted in secretion of interleukin-12, suggesting a TH1 polarization of this response. Here we show an in vivo immunotherapeutic effect of this B7-DC cross-linking antibody...
