Blockage of the NLRP3 inflammasome by MCC950 improves anti-tumor immune responses in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

The NLRP3 inflammasome is a critical innate immune pathway responsible for producing active interleukin (IL)-1β, which is associated with tumor development and immunity. However, the mechanisms regulating the inflammatory microenvironment, tumorigenesis and tumor immunity are unclear. Herein, we show that the NLRP3 inflammasome was over-expressed in human HNSCC tissues and that the IL-1β concentration was increased in the peripheral blood of HNSCC patients. Additionally, elevated NLRP3 inflammasome levels were detected in tumor tissues of Tgfbr1/Pten 2cKO HNSCC mice, and elevated IL-1β levels were detected in the peripheral blood serum, spleen, draining lymph nodes and tumor tissues. Blocking NLRP3 inflammasome activation using MCC950 remarkably reduced IL-1β production in an HNSCC mouse model and reduced the numbers of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), regulatory T cells (Tregs) and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Moreover, inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation increased the numbers of CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cells in HNSCC mice. Notably, the numbers of exhausted PD-1⁺ and Tim3⁺ T cells were significantly reduced. A human HNSCC tissue microarray showed that NLRP3 inflammasome expression was correlated with the expression of CD8 and CD4, the Treg marker Foxp3, the MDSC markers CD11b and CD33, and the TAM markers CD68 and CD163, PD-1 and Tim3. Overall, our results demonstrate that the NLRP3 inflammasome/IL-1β pathway promotes tumorigenesis in HNSCC and inactivation of this pathway delays tumor growth, accompanied by decreased immunosuppressive cell accumulation and an increased number of effector T cells. Thus, inhibition of the tumor microenvironment through the NLRP3 inflammasome/IL-1β pathway may provide a novel approach for HNSCC therapy.     

氧化还原介体催化强化污染物厌氧降解研究进展

 由于厌氧生物处理技术具有产生剩余污泥少、可回收能源等优点而被广泛用于处理各种有机污染物，尤其在有毒、有害、难降解污染物的去除方面取得了良好的效果。然而，厌氧生物法的处理速率通常比较低，而氧化还原介体可通过自身不断的氧化和还原来传递电子，提高电子在氧化还原反应过程中的传递速率，从而促进污染物高效厌氧降解。醌类物质和腐殖酸是应用较多的氧化还原介体，在催化难降解污染物降解方面取得了一定效果。讨论了氧化还原介体的特点、作用机制，并总结了其对偶氮染料厌氧脱色、反硝化和多氯联苯厌氧降解的强化作用，提出了氧化还原介体未来的研究方向。

Defining G protein-coupled receptor peptide ligand expressomes and signalomes in human and mouse islets

Introduction

Islets synthesise and secrete numerous peptides, some of which are known to be important regulators of islet function and glucose homeostasis. In this study, we quantified mRNAs encoding all peptide ligands of islet G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in isolated human and mouse islets and carried out in vitro islet hormone secretion studies to provide functional confirmation for the species-specific role of peptide YY (PYY) in mouse islets.

Materials and methods

GPCR peptide ligand mRNAs in human and mouse islets were quantified by quantitative real-time PCR relative to the reference genes ACTB, GAPDH, PPIA, TBP and TFRC. The pathways connecting GPCR peptide ligands with their receptors were identified by manual searches in the PubMed, IUPHAR and Ingenuity databases. Distribution of PYY protein in mouse and human islets was determined by immunohistochemistry. Insulin, glucagon and somatostatin secretion from islets was measured by radioimmunoassay.

Results

We have quantified GPCR peptide ligand mRNA expression in human and mouse islets and created specific signalomes mapping the pathways by which islet peptide ligands regulate human and mouse GPCR signalling. We also identified species-specific islet expression of several GPCR ligands. In particular, PYY mRNA levels were ~ 40,000-fold higher in mouse than human islets, suggesting a more important role of locally secreted Pyy in mouse islets. This was confirmed by IHC and functional experiments measuring insulin, glucagon and somatostatin secretion.

Discussion

The detailed human and mouse islet GPCR peptide ligand atlases will allow accurate translation of mouse islet functional studies for the identification of GPCR/peptide signalling pathways relevant for human physiology, which may lead to novel treatment modalities of diabetes and metabolic disease.

     

外部治理环境与公司绩效:代理成本的中介效应

中国经济发展过程中存在区域发展不平衡现象,这种不平衡现象对公司绩效产生了重要影响。基于2003-2015年沪、深两市A股上市公司数据,以管理费用率度量上市公司管理层与股东间的第一类代理成本,以其他应收款占比度量上市公司控股股东与中小股东之间的第二类代理成本,采用多元回归和中介效应检验程序,实证检验了外部治理环境通过两类代理成本的中介作用对上市公司绩效影响的内在机理。研究结果表明,外部治理环境的提升能够显著的降低两类代理成本,进而提高上市公司的绩效,两类代理成本在外部治理环境影响公司绩效的过程中发挥显著的部分中介作用。

单快拍相干信号自适应波束形成方法

针对低快拍条件下相干信号波束形成问题,提出一种单快拍相干自适应波束形成方法。首先,构造Duvall特征消除器滤除阵列接收信号中的期望信号,再利用空间平滑方法解相关。然后,依据Hung Tuner算法对平滑后的协方差矩阵进行Gram Schmidt正交化,快速重构干扰信号子空间。最后,将静态权矢量在干扰子空间内的正交投影作为波束形成最优权矢量。该算法可有效避免协方差矩阵求逆和特征分解造成的复杂计算,且能降低由于期望信号泄露造成的子空间估计误差,在单快拍条件下性能良好。仿真分析验证了算法的优越性和理论分析的有效性。     

适用于混沌密钥分发的新误码协调方法

对于现有的密钥分发中的误码协调方法的复杂性和多次传输的问题，使用倒三角类坐标定位法来解决。将所得裸钥放置于下三角矩阵中，三边分别进行奇偶比较并互相传输计算结果，以达到定位错误比特位的目的。使用互注入光反馈激光器产生相关性高的混沌态来提取裸钥，通过该协调方法，最终可以达到10－8～10－10量级的误码率。通过该方法可以简单、有效地删除裸钥中的误码，满足现实通信对误码率的容忍度。
