    Targeting HMGB1 signalling improves therapeutic outcomes in NSCLC. (A) Correlation analysis between immune infiltration scores and HMGB1 expression in 491 LUAD and 500 LUSC patients from the TCGA database. (B) Correlation between HMGB1 expression and the distribution of various immune cell subsets in LUAD and LUSC patients. (C, D) THP‐1–derived M0 macrophages were treated with PBS, HMGB1 (10 or 100 ng) or exosomes derived from vector or HMGB1 OE cells (cell‐to‐exosome ratio = 1:10). M1 macrophage markers (CD86, CD80, iNOS) and M2 markers (CD206, IL‐10, Arg1) were quantified by PCR. (E) Lewis tumour‐bearing mice were treated with PBS, HMGB1 OE‐derived exosomes (1 × 10 10 exosomes per mouse, twice per week), anti‐PD‐1 antibody (RMP1‐14, 200 μg per mouse, twice per week) or combination therapy ( n = 5 per group). Tumour volumes and apoptosis levels in tumour tissues (day 25) were assessed. (F) PC9 cells were treated with PBS or exosomes from HMGB1 OE cells (cell‐to‐exosome ratio = 1:10), followed by Osimertinib (50 nM, 48 h), and apoptosis was measured. (G) A549 and PC9 cells were similarly treated with PBS or HMGB1 OE‐derived exosomes, followed by Cisplatin (5 μM, 48 h), and apoptosis was analysed. (H) A549 and PC9 cells were similarly treated with paclitaxel (10 μM, 48 h) under the same conditions, and cell apoptosis was determined. (I) A549‐bearing mice were treated with HMGB1 OE‐derived exosomes (1 × 10 10 exosomes per mouse), followed by PBS, paclitaxel (PTX, 10 mg/kg, twice per week), STAT3 inhibitor (5 mg/kg, twice per week) or combination therapy. (J) Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed mechanism: HMGB1 upregulates TLR4, thereby activating the NF‐κB–IL‐6 axis and stimulating JAK2/STAT3 signalling to promote tumour progression. Concurrently, HMGB1 facilitates M2 macrophage polarisation.

    Wnt-dependent breast CSC colony formation is promoted by IL1β. a Gene expression levels of Wnt ligands did not increase from week 3 to week 8 bone marrow taken from three patients (patient numbers: 140, 147, 148). Data is presented as log2 fold change in gene expression from week 3 to week 8. b Treating bone marrow in culture with 100 µM porcupine inhibitor (PORCNi) LGK974 for 72 h prior to taking CM did not prevent CM stimulating mammosphere formation in MCF-7 cells (PORCNi on BM). Treating MCF-7 cells with 100 µM of LGK974 for 72 h prior to the addition of CM prevented stimulation in mammosphere formation (PORCNi on MCF7). c IL15 and IL1β showed the largest increase from week 3 to week 8 CM when analysed by cytokine array ( n = 1). d Inhibition of <t>IL6,</t> IL8 or IL15 with 5 µg/ml <t>neutralising</t> antibody did not prevent induction of mammosphere formation by CM in MCF-7 cells, whereas inhibition of IL1β with 5 µg/ml neutralising antibody prevented CM from increasing mammosphere formation. e IL1β levels were significantly increased in week 8–12 stimulatory CM compared to week 3 non-stimulatory CM ( n = 4). f IL1β is expressed by both normal mouse and human bone. Staining is representative of three sections from three independent samples. Femur taken from 8 week old NSG mice. Negative controls (no primary antibody) are shown. Scale bar 100 µM. g The addition of 10 ng/ml recombinant IL1β to control media replicated the effect of CM in stimulating mammosphere formation in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231_BH. h Treating a bone marrow sample in culture with 5 µg/ml of IL1β neutralising antibody for 72 h prior to collection of CM prevented stimulation of mammosphere formation in MCF-7 cells (IL1βNA on BM). Treating MCF-7 cells with 5 µg/ml of IL1β neutralising antibody for 72 h prior to the addition of CM did not prevent stimulation in mammosphere formation by CM (IL1βNA on MCF7). i IL1R gene expression is increased in the anoikis resistant (AR) cancer stem cell population in MCF-7 cells. j 10 µg/ml Anakinra reversed the induction in mammosphere formation by CM in early breast cancer samples ( n = 3).

    Tocris il-6 neutralising antibody
    IL‐6 receptor‐alpha (IL‐6Rα) was present in NeuN‐positive cells in the central amygdala and IL ‐6 stimulated the firing rate of neurones residing in the capsular part of the central amygdala. IL ‐6Rα immunoreactivity (green) and NeuN immunoreactivity (red) partially co‐localised in the central amygdala (CeA). Cell nuclei were stained with 4′,6‐diamidino‐2‐phenylindole (blue). Yellow arrowheads show examples of cells where IL ‐6Rα and NeuN immunoreactivity co‐localised, whereas green and red arrowheads show examples of cells with only IL ‐6Rα and NeuN immunoreactivity, respectively (A, B). Approximately 50% of IL ‐6Rα‐immunoreactive cells also showed NeuN immunoreactivity. Conversely, approximately 50% of NeuN immunoreactive cells also showed IL ‐6Rα immunoreactivity (C, D). These results indicate that a substantial proportion of the neurones in the CeA could be responsive to IL ‐6. Loose‐patch recording showed that IL ‐6 (1 nmol L ‐1 ) could rapidly increase the firing rate of the targeted neurones. The zoomed periods and frequency distribution graph under the recording also show this profound elevation (E). A cocktail of IL ‐6 and its <t>neutralising</t> antibody ( IL ‐6 ab) evoked no significant change in the firing rate (F). Arrows show the onset of administration of IL ‐6 or the IL ‐6 + IL ‐6ab cocktail. Scale bars: overview = 80 μm, zoom = 10 μm. BLA , basolateral amygdala

    Targeting HMGB1 signalling improves therapeutic outcomes in NSCLC. (A) Correlation analysis between immune infiltration scores and HMGB1 expression in 491 LUAD and 500 LUSC patients from the TCGA database. (B) Correlation between HMGB1 expression and the distribution of various immune cell subsets in LUAD and LUSC patients. (C, D) THP‐1–derived M0 macrophages were treated with PBS, HMGB1 (10 or 100 ng) or exosomes derived from vector or HMGB1 OE cells (cell‐to‐exosome ratio = 1:10). M1 macrophage markers (CD86, CD80, iNOS) and M2 markers (CD206, IL‐10, Arg1) were quantified by PCR. (E) Lewis tumour‐bearing mice were treated with PBS, HMGB1 OE‐derived exosomes (1 × 10 10 exosomes per mouse, twice per week), anti‐PD‐1 antibody (RMP1‐14, 200 μg per mouse, twice per week) or combination therapy ( n = 5 per group). Tumour volumes and apoptosis levels in tumour tissues (day 25) were assessed.

    Wnt-dependent breast CSC colony formation is promoted by IL1β. a Gene expression levels of Wnt ligands did not increase from week 3 to week 8 bone marrow taken from three patients (patient numbers: 140, 147, 148). Data is presented as log2 fold change in gene expression from week 3 to week 8. b Treating bone marrow in culture with 100 µM porcupine inhibitor (PORCNi) LGK974 for 72 h prior to taking CM did not prevent CM stimulating mammosphere formation in MCF-7 cells (PORCNi on BM). Treating MCF-7 cells with 100 µM of LGK974 for 72 h prior to the addition of CM prevented stimulation in mammosphere formation (PORCNi on MCF7). c IL15 and IL1β showed the largest increase from week 3 to week 8 CM when analysed by cytokine array ( n = 1). d Inhibition of IL6, IL8 or IL15 with 5 µg/ml neutralising antibody did not prevent induction of mammosphere formation by CM in MCF-7 cells, whereas inhibition of IL1β with 5 µg/ml neutralising antibody prevented CM from increasing mammosphere formation. e IL1β levels were significantly increased in week 8–12 stimulatory CM compared to week 3 non-stimulatory CM ( n = 4). f IL1β is expressed by both normal mouse and human bone. Staining is representative of three sections from three independent samples. Femur taken from 8 week old NSG mice. Negative controls (no primary antibody) are shown.

    IL‐6 receptor‐alpha (IL‐6Rα) was present in NeuN‐positive cells in the central amygdala and IL ‐6 stimulated the firing rate of neurones residing in the capsular part of the central amygdala. IL ‐6Rα immunoreactivity (green) and NeuN immunoreactivity (red) partially co‐localised in the central amygdala (CeA). Cell nuclei were stained with 4′,6‐diamidino‐2‐phenylindole (blue). Yellow arrowheads show examples of cells where IL ‐6Rα and NeuN immunoreactivity co‐localised, whereas green and red arrowheads show examples of cells with only IL ‐6Rα and NeuN immunoreactivity, respectively (A, B). Approximately 50% of IL ‐6Rα‐immunoreactive cells also showed NeuN immunoreactivity. Conversely, approximately 50% of NeuN immunoreactive cells also showed IL ‐6Rα immunoreactivity (C, D). These results indicate that a substantial proportion of the neurones in the CeA could be responsive to IL ‐6. Loose‐patch recording showed that IL ‐6 (1 nmol L ‐1 ) could rapidly increase the firing rate of the targeted neurones. The zoomed periods and frequency distribution graph under the recording also show this profound elevation (E). A cocktail of IL ‐6 and its neutralising antibody ( IL ‐6 ab) evoked no significant change in the firing rate (F). Arrows show the onset of administration of IL ‐6 or the IL ‐6 + IL ‐6ab cocktail.
