A subset of follicular helper-like MAIT cells can provide B cell help and support antibody production in the mucosa

Owen Jensen et al.

Summary: Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate-like T lymphocytes that protect mucosal surfaces against bacterial pathogens. They not only release inflammatory cytokines and cytotoxic molecules but also provide B cell help. This study identifies a population of CXCR5(+) T follicular helper-like MAIT cells (MAITfh) that can provide B cell help within mucosal lymphoid organs.

CCL5 Release by CCR9+CD8 T Cells: A Potential Contributor to Immunopathology of Primary Sjogren's Syndrome

Anneline C. Hinrichs et al.

Summary: The expression of CCL5 by CCR9+ CD8 T cells in primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS) patients was studied in this research. The results showed an increased frequency of circulating CCR9+ CD8 T cells in pSS patients compared to healthy controls (HC). Antigen-experienced CD8 T cells, especially CCR9+ effector CD8 T cells, expressed the highest levels of CCL5 and released the highest levels of CCL5 upon activation. Furthermore, CCR9+ CD8 T cells rapidly released CCL5 and significantly more than CCR9+ CD4 T cells. These findings suggest that CCL5 release by CCR9+ CD8 T cells contributes to immunopathology in pSS.

Association between IL-7 and primary Sjogren's syndrome: A single-center study and a systematic scoping review

Yan Liang et al.

Summary: This study found an association between IL-7 and pSS through a single-center study and a systematic scoping review. IL-7 may play a key role in the immunopathology of pSS, and IL-7 and soluble IL-7R may serve as potential biomarkers for monitoring pSS activity.

Emerging roles for chemokines and cytokines as orchestrators of immunopathology in Sjogren's syndrome

Sofie L. M. Blokland et al.

Summary: In pSS, chemokines and cytokines play crucial roles in orchestrating immunopathology through regulating a complex network of interacting inflammatory cells. The emerging roles of novel chemotactic and non-chemotactic mediators are highlighted in controlling pathogenic processes, such as promoting B cell hyperactivity and ectopic lymphoid structures formation.

Interleukin-7/Interferon Axis Drives T Cell and Salivary Gland Epithelial Cell Interactions in Sjogren's Syndrome

Elodie Riviere et al.

Summary: This study indicates the presence of an IL-7/IFN gamma amplification loop involving SGECs and T cells in primary SS. IL-7 was secreted by SGECs stimulated with type I or type II IFN and activated T cells that secreted IFN gamma. An anti-IL-7R antibody decreased the IFN signature in T cells in primary SS and could be a therapeutic option.

Outcome of SARS-CoV-2 infection is linked to MAIT cell activation and cytotoxicity

Heloise Flament et al.

Summary: Severe cases of COVID-19 are characterized by immune system dysfunction, particularly a significant reduction and high activation of mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells. These cells play a crucial role in disease severity and mortality, correlating with the activation of inflammatory cytokines and cytotoxic phenotype.
