Chronic infection with () is a major risk factor for gastric cancer. This work attempted to investigate the underlying mechanism of SLFN4 myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in affecting gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM). infection enhanced the expression of IFN-α and SLFN4, and activated JAK2/STAT1 signaling pathway in bone marrow cells or mouse gastric corpus. Meanwhile, IFN-α induced the transportation of STAT1 to the nucleus and activated the SLFN4 promoter. Moreover, the proportion of SLFN4MDSC was decreased in IFN-α-treated bone marrow cells following TB42 treatment (JAK2/STAT1 signaling inhibitor). Additionally, miR-130b-3p was secreted by SLFN4MDSCs. MiR-130b-3p was upregulated, tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (TSC1) was downregulated in patients. MiR-130b-3p inhibition in SLFN4MDSCs alleviated GIM. In conclusion, infection-induced high levels of IFN-α activated JAK/STAT1 signaling pathway to promote differentiation of SLFN4MDSCs. High expression of miR-130b-3p in SLFN4MDSCs inactivated Shh signaling pathway by targeting TSC1, thereby promoting GIM.
(某种病菌)慢性感染是胃癌的主要危险因素。这项研究试图探究SLFN4髓源性抑制细胞(MDSCs)影响胃黏膜肠化生(GIM)的潜在机制。(某种病菌)感染增强了IFN-α和SLFN4的表达,并激活了骨髓细胞或小鼠胃体中的JAK2/STAT1信号通路。同时,IFN-α诱导STAT1转运至细胞核并激活SLFN4启动子。此外,用TB42(JAK2/STAT1信号抑制剂)处理后,经IFN-α处理的骨髓细胞中SLFN4 MDSC的比例降低。另外,miR-130b-3p由SLFN4 MDSCs分泌。在(某种病菌)感染患者中,miR-130b-3p上调,结节性硬化复合物1(TSC1)下调。抑制SLFN4 MDSCs中的miR-130b-3p可减轻胃黏膜肠化生。总之,(某种病菌)感染诱导的高水平IFN-α激活JAK/STAT1信号通路,以促进SLFN4 MDSCs的分化。SLFN4 MDSCs中miR-130b-3p的高表达通过靶向TSC1使Shh信号通路失活,从而促进胃黏膜肠化生。
