Herein 2-cyanoethoxy-N,N,N',N'-tetraisopropyl-phosphorodiamidite(10, P, 3.5 eq.) could synergistically react with 3',5'-dihydroxyl groups in a dinucleotide(P) at the cyclization step for the synthesis of cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) (c-di-GMP, cGAMP etc.) and their phosphorothioated analogues. A dynamic P-P coordination mechanism has been proposed for the cyclization procedure which is confirmed by the variant P NMR data and molecular simulation. Among the mono-phosphorothioated CDNs, two stereoisomers showed different capacity for STING activation and the reason was predicted by molecular modeling. While compound 12b showed most potent ability to elicit cytokines (IFNβ, IL-6, Cxcl9 and Cxcl10) induction compared to another stereoisomer. Also, 12b significantly inhibited the tumor growth in the EO771 model with both 0.1 μg (i.t.) and 2 μg (i.v.) administration through the aid of a Mix delivery system developed by our group, and achieved a 31% long-term survival rate of tumor-bearing mice. 12b/Mix significantly improved the percentage of CD8 or CD4 effector memory T (Tem, CD44CD62L) cells and CD8 central memory T (Tcm, CD44CD62L) cells in the blood of EO771 mice, inducing the immune memory against EO771 tumor cells. Relatively lower dose regimens of 12b(0.1 μg)/Mix displayed better tumor suppression by more potent STING pathway activation and higher levels of cytokines induction in the tumor.

Donor selection determines the occurrence of acute graft-versus-host-disease (aGVHD) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). To optimize the current clinical donor selection criteria and identify putative donor lymphocyte subsets associated with better recipient outcomes, we analyzed the peripheral CD4 and CD8 subsets in 80 granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilized donors and examined the aGVHD incidence of the corresponding 80 haploidentical and identical allo-HSCT recipients. The G-CSF-induced expansion of subsets varied among donors.

Immunotherapy elicits a systemic antitumour immune response in peripheral circulating T cells. However, the T cell trafficking circuit between organs and their contributions to antitumour immunity remain largely unknown. Here we show in multiple mouse leukaemia models that high infiltration of leukaemic cells in bone marrow (BM) stimulates the transition of CD8CD44CD62L central memory T cells into CD8CD44CD62L T cells, designated as inter-organ migratory T cells (T cells).

We previously reported that nano-pulse treatment (NPT), a pulsed power technology, resulted in 4T1-luc mammary tumor elimination and a strong in situ vaccination, thereby completely protecting tumor-free animals against a second live tumor challenge. The mechanism whereby NPT mounts effective antitumor immune responses in the 4T1 breast cancer predominantly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) remains unanswered. In this study, orthotopic 4T1 mouse breast tumors were treated with NPT (100 ns, 50 kV/cm, 1000 pulses, 3 Hz).

Introduction: CD4 T cells with regulatory function co-expressing Foxp3 and RORγt are linked to the development of oral tolerance towards innocuous food antigens in mice. This study aimed to discern the role played by IL-6 and retinoic acid (RA) in the generation of Foxp3RORγt T cells and to investigate whether such cells have suppressive properties.
Methods: CD4CD25 T cells isolated from the spleen of BALB/c mice, were stimulated in the presence of IL-2 alone or together with TFG-β and different concentrations of IL-6 and/or RA.
