Global Profiling of Activin Target Genes in Mouse Granulosa Cells

ABSTRACT: In order to understand the mechanisms and pathways by which activin regulates follicle function, we performed a microarray study and identified activin regulated genes in mouse ovarian granulose cells. Primary cultured ovarian granulosa cells collected from day 21-23 old immature mice were treated with Activin A (A), Activin A plus its antagonist follistatin (AplusF), and PBS (P, vehicle) for 24 h. RNA from each treatment group was isolated and the experiments were repeated four times. Samples from experiment one were assigned as P1, A1 and A+F1, samples from experiment two as P2, A2 and A+F2, and so on. About 100 ng of each RNA sample was amplified using a modified Eberwine T7-based amplification protocol and hybridized to the Illumina Sentrix Mouse-6 Expression BeadChip (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA) that contains 48,000 sets of oligonucleotides.

Changes in follistatin levels by BRCA1 may serve as a regulator of ovarian carcinogenesis

Project description:Follistatin is a folliculogenesis regulating protein that has been found in relatively high concentration in the female ovarian tissues. Follistatin acts as an antagonist to the function of Activin, which is often found elevated in ovarian carcinogenesis and thus presents a possibility for therapeutic intervention in controlling ovarian cancer. Most of the ovarian cancer occurs in its ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) cells. Although breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) is a known tumor suppressor for breast cancer but its role in ovarian cancer is beginning to unfold. We have shown that in ovarian carcinoma cells (SKOV3), stable overexpression of BRCA1 stimulates Follistatin secretion and simultaneously downregulates Activin expression. Moreover, knock down of BRCA1 in immortalized OSE (IOSE) cells from human ovarian tissue demonstrates downregulation of Follistatin secretion with simultaneous up regulation of Activin expression. IOSE cells generated from an ovarian cancer patient with BRCA1 mutation failed to secrete Follistatin in the medium. Our results indicate a novel function for BRCA1 in the form of regulation of the expression of Follistatin in the ovarian cells. 3 treatments vs 3 controls

Activin regulates H3K4me3 in hPSC

Project description:Activin signalling controls the pluripotency of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) by inducing the formation of nuclear Smad2/3-Nanog complexes that bind to and regulate several downstream targets. We aimed to clarify the transcriptional dynamics to the inhibition of Activin in hPSCs. To this end we performed microarray analysis of hPSCs treated with SB431542 (SB), an antagonist of the ALK4 and ALK7 type I Activin receptors, for early (2h, 4h and 8h) and late (24h and 48h) time points. Moreover, given our finding that Activin signalling regulates H3K4me3 of its target genes, we tested the transcriptional effect to the knock-down of the Mll/Set1 complex subunit Dpy30 by using shRNA. Finally, we also evaluated the transcriptional response to the knock-down of the Smad2/3 cofactor Nanog by using shRNA.

Real-time quantitative PCR analysis reveals high expression of activin A during NK-DC interactions

Project description:The interaction of natural killer (NK) cells with dendritic cells (DC) results in reciprocal cell activation through the interaction of membrane proteins and the release of soluble factors. Here we report that in NK-DC cocultures, among a set of 84 cytokines investigated, activin A was the second highest induced gene, with CXCL8 being the most upregulated one. Activin A is a member of the TGF-β superfamily and was previously shown to possess both pro- and antiinflammatory activities. In NK-DC cocultures, the induction of activin A required cell contact and was dependent on the presence of proinflammatory cytokines (i.e. IFN-γ, TNF-α and GM-CSF) as well as on NK cell-mediated DC killing. CD1+ DC were the main activin A producer cells among myeloid blood DC subsets. In NK-DC cocultures, inhibition of acitivn A by follistatin, a natural inhibitory protein, or by a specific blocking antibody, resulted in the upregulation of proinflammatory cytokine release (i.e. IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α) by DC and in the increase of DC maturation. In conclusion, our study reports that activin A, produced during NK-DC interactions, represents a relevant negative feedback mechanism that might function to prevent excessive immune activation by DC.

Here we report that in NK-DC cocultures, among a set of 84 cytokines investigated, activin A was the second highest induced gene, with CXCL8 being the most upregulated one. Activin A is a member of the TGF-M-NM-2 superfamily and was previously shown to possess both pro- and antiinflammatory activities. In NK-DC cocultures, the induction of activin A required cell contact and was dependent on the presence of proinflammatory cytokines (i.e. IFN-M-NM-3, TNF-M-NM-1 and GM-CSF) as well as on NK cell-mediated DC killing. CD1+ DC were the main activin A producer cells among myeloid blood DC subsets.

In conclusion, our study reports that activin A, produced during NK-DC interactions, represents a relevant negative feedback mechanism that might function to prevent excessive immune activation by DC. Human CD14 positive monocytes were differentiated to DC in vitro in the presence of IL-4 (20 ng/ml) and GM-CSF (50 ng/ml) for 6 days. Immature DC were then cocultured with allogeneic IL-15-activated NK cells (at 1:1 NK:DC ratio) for 0, 2 and 6 hrs. RNA was obtained from three independent coculture experiments. Equal amount of total RNA from each experiment was pooled prior to gene expression analysis. The gene expression of common cytokines was quantified using an RT2 Profiler PCR Array (Qiagen).
