Accumulation of microbial DNAs promotes to islet inflammation and β cell abnormalities in obesity in mice

Hong Gao et al.

Summary: Obesity is associated with increased gut permeability, which leads to the leakage of microbial DNA into pancreatic beta-cells and promotes obesity-associated islet inflammation. Various microbial products leaked from the gut exacerbate tissue inflammation and metabolic disorders in obesity. Vsig4+ macrophages prevent the infiltration of bacteria and their products into host tissues, but their role in the communication between microbiota and beta cells in the pathogenesis of obesity-associated islet abnormalities is unclear.

ALK1 signaling is required for the homeostasis of Kupffer cells and prevention of bacterial infection

Dianyuan Zhao et al.

Summary: Tissue-derived signals regulate the identity and function of Kupffer cells through the BMP9/BMP10/ALK1 signaling pathway, while ALK1 is dispensable for the maintenance of macrophages.

Abnormal ADAMTS2 and VSIG4 in Serum of HF Patients and their Relationship with CRP, UA, and HCY

Zhihui Xie et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that ADAMTS2 and VSIG4 were up-regulated in serum of heart failure patients, indicating their potential as new non-invasive biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of heart failure. Additionally, the combined diagnosis accuracy of ADAMTS2, VSIG4, and BNP was greatly improved for heart failure. The reduced levels of ADAMTS2 and VSIG4 were found to be predictive of overall survival in heart failure patients, as shown by Kaplan-Meier and multivariate Cox regression analysis.

Expression of the immune checkpoint molecule V-set immunoglobulin domain-containing 4 is associated with poor prognosis in patients with advanced gastric cancer

So-Woon Kim et al.

Summary: The study found that the expression of VSIG4 in advanced gastric cancer is significantly correlated with patient survival, as well as with intratumoral CD8+ T-cell infiltration and Foxp3+/CD8i ratio. However, similar associations were not observed in other major cancers.

Immunoregulatory protein V-set and immunoglobulin domain-containing 4 is overexpressed in patients with endometriosis

Gyun-Ho Jeon et al.

Summary: The study found that the expression levels of VSIG4 were significantly increased in endometriosis patients, and higher VSIG4 levels were significantly associated with higher serum CA-125 levels. This suggests that VSIG4 may play an important role in the immunological alterations of endometriosis.

Proteomic profiling of MIS-C patients indicates heterogeneity relating to interferon gamma dysregulation and vascular endothelial dysfunction

Caroline Diorio et al.

Summary: Multi-inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a major complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection in pediatric patients, characterized by cardiovascular and hyperinflammatory symptoms of varying degrees. Dysregulated IFN gamma responses in MIS-C patients may contribute to clinical heterogeneity.

Tim-4+ cavity-resident macrophages impair anti-tumor CD8+ T cell immunity

Andrew Chow et al.

Summary: The study revealed that metastatic cancer in the pleural and peritoneal cavities leads to poor clinical outcomes after immune checkpoint blockade therapy, mainly due to the high expression of Tim-4 by cavity-resident macrophages, which suppresses tumor-reactive CD8(+) T cells. Blocking Tim-4 can enhance the efficacy of immunotherapy in these microenvironments.

VSIG4(+) peritoneal macrophages induce apoptosis of double-positive thymocyte via the secretion of TNF-α in a CLP-induced sepsis model resulting in thymic atrophy

Hae-Yun Cho et al.

Summary: This study identified VSIG4-positive peritoneal macrophages as the principal cells inducing thymic atrophy and thymocyte apoptosis in sepsis. Controlling the function of these cells may be crucial in developing new therapies to prevent thymocyte apoptosis in severe infections.

Rab18 interacted with V-set and immunoglobulin domain-containing 4 (VSIG4) to involve in the apoptosis of glioma and the sensitivity to temozolomide

Kai Yang et al.

Summary: The interaction between Rab18 and VSIG4 plays a role in the proliferation, apoptosis, and temozolomide sensitivity of glioma cells. Silencing Rab18 led to decreased proliferation, increased apoptosis, and enhanced TMZ sensitivity in U87-MG and U251-MG cells. Additionally, VSIG4 overexpression reversed the biological effects and TMZ sensitivity caused by Rab18 silencing.
