A total of 18 of 20 compounds showed cytotoxic effect on the cancer cell lines with different potential. Viability of healthy human fibroblasts and peripheral blood mononuclear cells upon treatment was less hampered compared to cancer cell lines supporting tumor cell specific cytotoxicity of our compounds. The most cytotoxic compounds resulted the following IC50 values 28: 2.91 µM on HL-60 cells, and 29: 3.1 µM on 4T1 cells. The A549 cells were less sensitive to the treatments with IC50 15 µM for both 28 and 29. Flow cytometry demonstrated the apoptotic effect of the most active seven compounds inducing phosphatidylserine exposure and sub-G1 fragmentation of nuclear DNA. Cell cycle arrest was also observed. Four compounds caused depolarization of the mitochondrial membrane potential as an early event of apoptosis. Two lead compounds inhibited tumor growth in vivo in the 4T1 triple negative breast cancer and A549 human lung adenocarcinoma xenograft models.

The response rate to a booster event in cellular immunity was the highest in the S-, M-, and N-reactive CD4+CD40L+ T-cell subset. Patients with a disease duration of more than 10 years had higher proportions of CD8+TNF-α+ and CD8+IFN-γ+ T-cells in comparison to patients who were diagnosed less than 10 years ago.

Data on humoral and cellular immunogenicity and safety of different SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in patients with autoimmune rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs) are limited. Methods: A single center observational study evaluated the immunogenicity and safety of the two-dose regimen of the BBIBP-CorV inactivated, Gam-COVID-Vac and AZD1222 adenovirus-based, and BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 mRNA-based vaccines in patients with RMDs (n = 89) compared with healthy controls (n = 74). Neutralizing anti-RBD (receptor binding domain) specific antibodies and SARS-CoV-2 specific T-cell response were measured one and four months after the second vaccine dose in parallel with vaccination efficacy and safety. Results: Disease-specific comparison showed that antibody response at four months was higher in spondylarthropathies compared to rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune RMDs. Risk factors for reduced immunogenicity included longer disease duration, positive immunoserological profile and anti-CD20 therapy of patients. The rate of positive anti-RBD antibody response for healthy controls versus patients after 4 months post vaccination was 69% vs. 55% for the inactivated viral vaccine BBIBP-CorV, 97% vs. 53% for the pooled data of adenovirus vector-based vaccines Gam-COVID-Vac and AZD1222, or 100% vs. 81% for the pooled data of mRNA vaccines BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273, respectively. Patients who received the Gam-COVID-Vac or mRNA-1273 vaccines had a higher proportion of TNF-alpha producing CD4+ T-cells upon SARS-CoV-2 antigen stimulation compared to the inactivated viral vaccine. Conclusion: All five investigated vaccines were immunogenic in the majority of patients and healthy controls with variable antibody and T-cell response and an acceptable safety profile.}, keywords = {Rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases; CD8(+)T-cell response; SARS-CoV-2 vaccination; anti-RBD neutralizing antibodies; CD4(+) T-cell response}, year = {2022}, eissn = {1664-3224}, orcid-numbers = {Szebeni, Gábor/0000-0002-6998-5632; Toldi, Gergely/0000-0003-0178-1243} } @article{MTMT:32570862, title = {Fehérje méretű molekulák humán sejtekbe juttatása lipid-raft mediált endocitózissal}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/32570862}, author = {Hetényi, Anasztázia and Imre, Norbert and Szabó, Enikő and Bodnár, Brigitta and Szkalisity, Ábel and Gróf, Ilona and Bocsik, Alexandra and Deli, Mária Anna and Horváth, Péter and Czibula, Ágnes and Monostori, Éva and Martinek, Tamás}, journal-iso = {BIOKÉMIA}, journal = {BIOKÉMIA: A MAGYAR BIOKÉMIAI EGYESÜLET FOLYÓIRATA}, volume = {45}, unique-id = {32570862}, issn = {0133-8455}, year = {2021}, eissn = {2060-8152}, pages = {67-83}, orcid-numbers = {Hetényi, Anasztázia/0000-0001-8080-6992; Deli, Mária Anna/0000-0001-6084-6524; Czibula, Ágnes/0000-0003-4461-2773; Monostori, Éva/0000-0002-7442-3562; Martinek, Tamás/0000-0003-3168-8066} } @article{MTMT:31126947, title = {Routing Nanomolar Protein Cargoes to Lipid Raft‐Mediated/Caveolar Endocytosis through a Ganglioside GM1‐Specific Recognition Tag}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/31126947}, author = {Imre, Norbert and Hetényi, Anasztázia and Szabó, Enikő and Bodnár, Brigitta and Szkalisity, Ábel and Gróf, Ilona and Bocsik, Alexandra and Deli, Mária Anna and Horváth, Péter and Czibula, Ágnes and Monostori, Éva and Martinek, Tamás}, doi = {10.1002/advs.201902621}, journal-iso = {ADV SCI}, journal = {ADVANCED SCIENCE}, volume = {7}, unique-id = {31126947}, year = {2020}, eissn = {2198-3844}, orcid-numbers = {Hetényi, Anasztázia/0000-0001-8080-6992; Deli, Mária Anna/0000-0001-6084-6524; Czibula, Ágnes/0000-0003-4461-2773; Monostori, Éva/0000-0002-7442-3562; Martinek, Tamás/0000-0003-3168-8066} } @article{MTMT:30802849, title = {Altered Cell Surface N-Glycosylation of Resting and Activated T Cells in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/30802849}, author = {Szabó, Enikő and Hornung, Ákos and Monostori, Éva and Bocskai, Márta and Czibula, Ágnes and Kovács, László}, doi = {10.3390/ijms20184455}, journal-iso = {INT J MOL SCI}, journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES}, volume = {20}, unique-id = {30802849}, issn = {1661-6596}, year = {2019}, eissn = {1422-0067}, orcid-numbers = {Monostori, Éva/0000-0002-7442-3562; Kovács, László/0000-0003-4457-1430} } @article{MTMT:30750520, title = {TMEM203 is a binding partner and regulator of STING-mediated inflammatory signaling in macrophages}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/30750520}, author = {Li, Yang and James, Sharmy J and Wyllie, David H and Wynne, Claire and Czibula, Ágnes and Bukhari, Ahmed and Pye, Katherine and Bte Mustafah, Seri Musfirah and Fajka-Boja, Roberta and Szabó, Enikő and Angyal, Adrienn and Hegedűs, Zoltán and Kovács, László and Hill, Adrian V S and Jefferies, Caroline A and Wilson, Heather L and Yongliang, Zhang and Kiss-Tóth, Endre}, doi = {10.1073/pnas.1901090116}, journal-iso = {P NATL ACAD SCI USA}, journal = {PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA}, volume = {116}, unique-id = {30750520}, issn = {0027-8424}, abstract = {Regulation of IFN signaling is critical in host recognition and response to pathogens while its dysregulation underlies the pathogenesis of several chronic diseases. STimulator of IFN Genes (STING) has been identified as a critical mediator of IFN inducing innate immune pathways, but little is known about direct coregulators of this protein. We report here that TMEM203, a conserved putative transmembrane protein, is an intracellular regulator of STING-mediated signaling. We show that TMEM203 interacts, functionally cooperates, and comigrates with STING following cell stimulation, which in turn leads to the activation of the kinase TBK1, and the IRF3 transcription factor. This induces target genes in macrophages, including IFN-β. Using Tmem203 knockout bone marrow-derived macrophages and transient knockdown of TMEM203 in human monocyte-derived macrophages, we show that TMEM203 protein is required for cGAMP-induced STING activation. Unlike STING, TMEM203 mRNA levels are elevated in T cells from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, a disease characterized by the overexpression of type I interferons. Moreover, TMEM203 mRNA levels are associated with disease activity, as assessed by serum levels of the complement protein C3. Identification of TMEM203 sheds light into the control of STING-mediated innate immune responses, providing a potential novel mechanism for therapeutic interventions in STING-associated inflammatory diseases.}, keywords = {lupus; STIM1; STING; interferon signaling; TMEM203}, year = {2019}, eissn = {1091-6490}, pages = {16479-16488}, orcid-numbers = {Czibula, Ágnes/0000-0003-4461-2773; Fajka-Boja, Roberta/0000-0001-5331-8280; Kovács, László/0000-0003-4457-1430} }
