Project description:Analysis of changes in skeletal muscle myoblasts in response to over-expression of angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2). The hypothesis tested in the present study was that over-expression of Ang-1 or Ang-2 will induce the expression of pro-survival and pro-differentiation genes in skeletal myoblasts while inhibiting the expression of pro-apoptotic genes. Results provide important information of how mRNA profile of skeletal myoblasts is altered by Ang-1 and ang-2 and provide first evidence that secondary mediators such as leptin may mediate the enhancement of skeletal myoblasts differentiation by Ang-1 and Ang-2.

Project description:Angiotensin II (Ang II)-mediated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) dysfunction plays a critical role in cardiovascular diseases. However, the gene expression in this process is unclear. We used Rat Affymetrix gene array to profile Ang II-regulated gene in RVSMC and evaluated their role in VSMC dysfunction. Examined 4 samples of Rat VSMC in triplicate. Control (without Ang II treatment) and 3 samples treated with Ang II for 6h, 12h, and 24h. Compared the changes in gene expression in Ang II treated samples relative to control samples.

Project description:Gliomas are aggressive primary brain tumors, presenting surgery limitations due to their highly infiltrative potential. The expression of Angiotensin II (Ang II) receptors in human astrocytomas was previously associated with a poor prognosis. Accordingly, this study was undertaken to reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying Ang II actions in gliomas through the transcriptomic analysis of glioma cells exposed to Ang II. C6 glioma cells were treated with Ang II and specific antagonists of AT1 and AT2. Total RNA was isolated at three and six hours intervals and submitted to oligonucleotide microarray protocol. The differentially expressed genes were obtained by paired t-tests with p<0.05 and interpreted using Venn diagrams, functional enrichment and protein interaction network analyses. Validation of microarray results was carried out through qPCR experiments of selected genes. We found a high number of significant genes with low fold changes in gene expression at the time intervals studied. These genes were regulated in a time dependent-manner, with most gene expression changes being exclusive to one of the time intervals evaluated. Our results indicated that blocking AT1 or AT2 changed the expression of genes involved in regulation of transcription, cell cycle, cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, cell adhesion, cell migration, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, protein transport and protein ubiquitination. Additionally, the signaling pathways over-represented by the significant genes were ErbB, mTOR, MAPK, neurotrophin, insulin and Wnt. Finally, interactome analyses revealed hub genes associated with cell proliferation, survival, migration, transport, structural support, neurotrophin pathway, MAPK signaling and Wnt signaling. Taken together, our findings implicate Ang II-transcriptional regulation in glioma progression by means of the modulation of genes participating in protumoral functions. This transcriptome pattern is observed upon Ang II activation of either AT1 or AT2 receptors, thereby highlighting the relevance of both receptor subtypes in glioma progression. Interactome analyses disclosed hub genes regulated by Ang II which may present higher control over their networks. These genes participate in biological functions that could enhance the degree of malignancy in gliomas and thus should be further explored. C6 cells were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 100 Units/ml penicillin and 100 M-BM-5g/ml streptomycin. Cells were seeded in cell culture dishes and incubated at 37M-BM-0C/ 5% CO2 until becoming confluent. Then, these cells were pre-treated (30 minutes) with either AT1 receptor antagonist (Losartan: 10-5M) or AT2 receptor antagonist (PD123319: 10-5M) followed by Ang II treatment (10-7 M) according to the treatment scheme: Group 1 M-bM-^@M-^S control; Group 2 M-bM-^@M-^S cells only treated with Ang II; Group 3 M-bM-^@M-^S cells pre-treated (30 minutes) with Losartan and then treated with Ang II; Group 4 M-bM-^@M-^S cells pre-treated (30 minutes) with PD123319 and then treated with Ang II. To identify which genes were significantly differentially expressed, paired t-tests (p<0.05) were performed in the following comparisons: Ang II x Control (3h); Ang II x Control (6h); Ang II +Los x Ang II (3h); Ang II +Los x Ang II (6h); Ang II +PD123319 x Ang II (3h); Ang II +PD123319 x Ang II (6h).

Project description:Drug resistance from BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and other chemotherapeutics results in treatment failure and disease progression in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, the mechanism is still uncertain. In this study, we investigated the role of angiopoietin-1 (ANG-1) as a potential prognostic factor for drug resistance in CML. Both intracellular and secretory ANG-1 (iANG-1 and sANG-1) were overexpressed in multidrug-resistant CML samples. The IC50 value was higher in primary CD34+ CD38– cells with more ANG-1. Silencing ANG-1 significantly sensitized three TKI-resistant CML cell lines to imatinib (IM) while recombinant human ANG-1 failed to retain cell survival in vitro. This indicated the important role of iANG-1 as opposed to sANG-1 in CML drug resistance. Moreover, a similar effect was observed in xenograft mice models bearing ANG-1-silenced CML cells. Subsequently, pathway analysis and protein validation experiments showed activation of the JAK/STAT pathway and augmentation of STAT5a phosphorylation in ANG-1 restored CML cells. Upstream Src phosphorylation, which plays a crucial role in CML drug resistance, was also upregulated as a key event in iANG-1-related JAK/STAT pathway activation. In conclusion, our study elucidated a new BCR-ABL independent molecular mechanism induced by intracytoplasmic ANG-1 overexpression as a potential strategy for overcoming CML resistance.

Project description:Angiotensin II (Ang II)-mediated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) dysfunction plays a critical role in cardiovascular diseases. However, the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in this process is unclear. We used small RNA deep sequencing to profile Ang II-regulated miRNAs in rat VSMC and evaluated their role in VSMC dysfunction. Sequencing results revealed several Ang II-responsive miRNAs and bioinformatics analysis showed that their predicted targets can modulate biological processes relevant to cardiovascular diseases. Examined 4 samples of Rat VSMC. Control (without Ang II treatment) and 3 samples treated with Ang II for 1h, 3h, and 24h. Compared the changes in gene expression in Ang II treated samples relative to control samples.

Project description:Angiotensin II (Ang-II) regulates adrenal steroid production and gene transcription through several signaling pathways. Changes in gene transcription occur within minutes after Ang-II stimulation, causing an acute increase in aldosterone production and subsequent increase in the overall capacity to produce aldosterone. Our goal was to compare the Ang-II regulation of early gene expression and confirm the upregulation of selected genes using quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qPCR) across three species: human, bovine, and rat. Experiment Overall Design: Microarray analysis was performed using samples from control and Ang-II-(10 nM) treated (1 hour) cells from human adrenocortical tumor cell line H295-R, and primary adrenal glomerulosa cells from bovine and rat, applied respectively to human HG-133 + 2 , bovine, and rat 230-2 Affymetrix chips. qPCR was performed to confirm upregulation of selected genes using mRNA. Dye Swap was not used. Human samples (H295R) include 3 replicates of Basal (controls) and 3 repeats of Angiotensin II samples. Human H295R cells include also a group of cycloheximide (protein synthesis blocker) and angiontensin II + cycloheximide in order to check if the genes were direct targets of angiotensin II.

Project description:Neuro-vascular communication is essential to synchronize central nervous system development. Yet, the specific cellular players, defined developmental processes and molecular mechanisms involved in this crosstalk remain poorly characterized. Here we identify the angiopoietin/Tie2 signaling axis as a crucial regulator of dendritic morphogenesis of Purkinje cells (PC) during cerebellum development. We show that in the developing cerebellum Tie2 expression is not restricted to blood vessels but it is also in PCs. Its ligands angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) are expressed in neural cells and endothelial cells (ECs), respectively. PC-specific deletion of Tie2 results in reduced dendritic arborization, which is recapitulated in neural-specific Ang1-knockout and Ang2 full-knockout mice. Mechanistically, RNA sequencing reveals that Tie2 deficient PCs present alterations in gene expression of multiple genes involved in cytoskeleton organization, dendritic formation, growth and branching. Functionally, those morphological changes are accompanied by alterations in PC network electrophysiology. Altogether, our data propose that the Ang/Tie2 signaling axis serve as mediator of intercellular communication between neural cells, ECs and PCs, required to regulate PC dendritic morphogenesis and function.

Project description:Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) is an endogenous heptapeptide from the renin-angiotensin system. The cardioprotective role of Ang-(1-7) has been described due to its anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic activities. In this context, we investigated the impact of the oral formulation of Ang-(1-7) vehiculized in hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) on cardiac proteome remodeling after experimental myocardial infarction. For this, Wistar male rats were submitted to short- (7 days) or long-term (60 days) oral treatment with HPβCD/Ang-(1-7) after induction of experimental myocardial infarction (MI)
