Inhibition of EZH2 in THP-1 cells

ABSTRACT: Macrophages play a key role in both innate and adaptive immunity, but our knowledge on the changes in transcription regulation that occurs during their differentiation from monocytes is still limited. In this study, we used a meta-analysis followed by a systems biology approach for the identification of differentially expressed genes between monocytes and macrophages and possible regulators of these changes in transcription. Based on the pattern of gene expression change, transcription regulator analysis predicted a decrease in Enhancer of Zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), a histone 3 lysine 27 methyl transferase, activity after differentiation of monocytes into macrophages. This inhibition was validated by a significant decrease in trimethylated H3K27 during differentiation of both human primary monocytes into macrophages and the THP-1 cell line into macrophage-like cells. Overexpressing EZH2 during differentiation of monocytes and THP-1 cells obstructs cellular adhesion, thus preventing the first step in differentiation. Another facet of macrophage differentiation is the cessation of proliferation, and inhibition of EZH2 by the small molecule inhibitor GSK126 in THP-1 cells indeed impedes proliferation. This study shows an important part for epigenetic changes during monocyte differentiation. It highlights the role of EZH2 activity behind the changes needed in adhesion and proliferation mechanisms for macrophage formation. THP-1s were treated with the EZH2 inhibitor GSK126 for phenotypic and genotypic analysis.

Transcriptome-wide regulation of pre-mRNA splicing and expression by the RNA-binding protein Quaking during monocyte to macrophage differentiation [Microarray]

Project description:Expression levels of the RNA-binding protein Quaking (QKI) are low in monocytes of early, human atherosclerotic lesions, but abundant in macrophages of advanced plaques. Specific depletion of QKI protein impaired monocyte adhesion, migration, differentiation into macrophages, and foam cell formation in vitro and in vivo. RNA-seq and microarray analysis of human monocyte and macrophage transcriptomes, including those of a unique QKI haploinsufficient patient, revealed striking changes in QKI-dependent mRNA levels and splicing of RNA transcripts. Microarray analysis of gene expression and splicing in THP-1 cells transfected with shRNAs, with or without PMA treatment to induce differentiation. 12 total samples were analyzed: THP-1 monocytic cell line transfected with QKI or control shRNAs; samples taken at day 0 or day 3 of PMA-induced differentiation into macrophages.

Comparison of a macrophage like cell line derived from THP-1 cells

Project description:There is currently no human macrophage cell line and in vitro experiments requiring these cells currently require mitogenic stimulation of a macrophage precursor cell line (for example THP-1 cells) or ex vivo maturation of circulating primary monocytes. We have derived a unique sub-clone of the THP-1 cell line capable of spontaneous and perpetual differentiation into alveolar macrophage-like cells. Here we used the Agilent G4851C (v3) array to look at the gene expression of the new cell line which can be compared it with THP-1 cells and PMA stimulate THP-1 cells (Accession number E-MTAB-4153). In addition the new human alveolar macrophage like cell line has been treated with unmodified lipid to look at lipid uptake by these cells and the effect on gene expression.

Quantitative proteomic analysis of polarized macrophages

Project description:In this study, by using two classical macrophage cell models, RAW264.7 cell line from mouse and THP-1 cell line from human, combined with the applications of two classical stimulation methods for inducing classical activated (M1) and alternatively activated macrophages (M2) from the monocytes of both cell lines, we comprehensively identified and quantified proteins in different types of macrophages from both cell lines through high-throughput proteomics.

Cyr61 promotes CD204 expression and migration of macrophages via MEK/Erk pathway in the microenvironment of human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Project description:The authors previously suggested that CD204 was a useful marker for tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In this study, they discovered that within ESCC microenvironment not only cancer cells but also TAMs expressed cysteine-rich, angiogenic inducer, 61 (Cyr61), induced by conditioned media of ESCC cells. Levels of Cyr61 expression were associated with CD204+ macrophage infiltration in ESCC tissue. Cyr61 promoted CD204 expression and migration of macrophages via MEK/Erk pathway in vitro. To identify the molecules specifically upregulated in TAM-like THP-1 cells, we performed a cDNA microarray analysis using RNAs from THP-1 stimulated with 200 nM TPA or with 200 nM TPA followed by 50% TE-8CM. THP-1 human acute monocytic leukemia cell line was treated with 200 nM 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) for 2 days to induce macrophage-like differentiation, then exposed to 50%Conditioned medium of TE-8 ESCC cell line (TE-8CM) for 2 days. Differentially expressed genes between MM-NM-&-like and TAM-like THP-1 cells were analysed by cDNA microarray. TE-8CM was prepared by plating 5 M-CM-^W 106 tumor cells in 10 mL complete medium in 100-mm dishes for 24 hr, thereafter changing the medium to complete DMEM supplemented with 10% human AB serum instead of fetal bovine serum. After 2M-bM-^@M-^S3 days, the supernatants were harvested, centrifuged and stored in aliquots at M-bM-^HM-^R80M-BM-0C.

Quantitative proteomic analysis of four subtypes of M2 macrophages

Project description:In this study, we used mass spectrometry and label-free quantification (LFQ) to characterize the global proteomics of polarized (M1, M2a, M2b, M2c, and M2d) and unpolarized (M0) phenotypes of macrophages from human THP-1 monocytes. The results described the biological functions of the four M2 macrophages subtypes and provided available references for identifying M2 macrophages or subtypes of M2 macrophages.
