Characterising the expression and function of CCL28 and its corresponding receptor, CCR10, in RA pathogenesis.

ABSTRACT: This study was conducted to determine the expression pattern, regulation and function of CCL28 and CCR10 in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis.Expression of CCL28 and CCR10 was assessed in RA compared with other arthritis synovial tissues (STs) or fluids (SFs) by histology or ELISA. The factors modulating CCL28 and CCR10 expression were identified in RA myeloid and endothelial cells by ELISA, FACS and Western blotting. The mechanism by which CCL28 ligation promotes RA angiogenesis was examined in control and CCR10-knockdown endothelial cell chemotaxis and capillary formation.CCL28 and/or CCR10 expression levels were accentuated in STs and SFs of patients with joint disease compared with normal controls and they were predominately coexpressed in RA myeloid and endothelial cells. We show that protein expression of CCL28 and CCR10 was modulated by tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-? and toll-like receptor 4 ligation in RA monocytes and endothelial cells and by interleukin (IL)-6 stimulation in RA macrophages. Neutralisation of CCL28 in RA SF or blockade of CCR10 on human endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) significantly reduced SF-induced endothelial migration and capillary formation, demonstrating that ligation of joint CCL28 to endothelial CCR10+ cells is involved in RA angiogenesis. We discovered that angiogenesis driven by ligation of CCL28 to CCR10 is linked to the extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) cascade, as CCR10-knockdown cells exhibit dysfunctional CCL28-induced ERK signalling, chemotaxis and capillary formation.The overexpression of CCL28 and CCR10 in RA ST and their contribution to EPC migration into RA joints support the CCL28/CCR10 cascade as a potential therapeutic target for RA.

Project description:G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-related proteins are dysregulated and the GPCR CC-chemokine receptor 10 (CCR10) is significantly upregulated in inflammation-driven HCC. However, CCR10's role in inflammation-driven hepatocarcinogenesis remains unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of CCR10 in inflammation-driven hepatocarcinogenesis. Via a targeted gene expression microarray screening alterations in GPCR family gene expression, we found CCR10 to be significantly upregulated in hepatocytes isolated from inflammation-driven human HCC tumors and matching paracancerous tissues. Tetrachloromethane (CCl4)-induced and diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced murine models of inflammatory hepatocarcinogenesis displayed significant hepatocellular TNF and CCR10 upregulation. Exogenous TNF applied to HepG2 and LO2 cell lines as well as wild-type (WT) mice significantly upregulated hepatocellular CCR10 expression, Akt phosphorylation, PCNA expression, and hepatocellular proliferation. Additionally, exogenous TNF significantly upregulated secretion of the natural CCR10 ligand-agonist CCL28 from both cell lines. Transgenic CCR10-knockout (CCR10 KO) in DEN-treated mice significantly increased hepatocellular apoptosis levels and significantly lowered compensatory hepatocellular proliferation but did not affect upstream TNF expression. In addition, DEN-treated CCR10 KO mice showed a significantly lower liver weight/body weight ratio, significantly lower liver tumor incidence, and significantly smaller tumors. Moreover, exogenous CCR10 expression significantly raised xenograft tumor growth in Balb/c nude mice. In vitro, CCR10 transfection or CCL28 treatment in HepG2 and LO2 cell lines significantly increased Akt phosphorylation, PCNA expression, and cell proliferation, while CCR10 silencing or Akt inhibition produced the opposite effects. In vivo, hepatocytes isolated from HCC tumor tissue and matching paracancerous tissue in DEN-treated CCR10 KO mice showed significantly lower Akt phosphorylation and PCNA expression relative to WT hepatocytes. In conclusion, inflammation-induced TNF promotes hepatocellular CCR10 expression and downstream PI3K/Akt-mediated hepatocarcinogenesis. CCR10 appears to function as a linkage between TNF stimulation and downstream PI3K/Akt pathway activation and shows promise as a potential therapeutic target for inflammation-driven HCC.
