Role of PDIA3 in metabolic disease-related autoreactivity. In step 1, metabolic stress causes cells like hepatocytes to exhibit higher levels of the endoplasmic reticulum chaperone PDIA3 at their surface. This signal may trigger phagocytosis of damaged cells by dendritic cells (DCs). In step 2, these immune sentinels process PDIA3, present related epitopes onto MHC molecules, and then (step 3) prime naïve PDIA3-specific T lymphocytes. In step 4, such T cells differentiate into type-1 (i.e. IFN-γ and TNF-α secreting) and type-17 (i.e. IL-17A secreting) effector or cytotoxic (i.e. GzmB releasing) T lymphocytes, and favor a B cell response culminating in the production of cytopathic anti-PDIA3 IgG antibodies. The resulting autoreactivity increases the risk of developing the indicated chronic inflammatory diseases (step 5). Created with BioRender.com. GzmB, granzyme B; IFN-γ, interferon-γ; IL17, interleukin-17; MHC, major histocompatibility complex; TCR, T cell receptor; TNFα, tumor necrosis factor-α.
