Exposure of decidualized HIESC to low oxygen tension and leucine deprivation results in increased IGFBP-1 phosphorylation and reduced IGF-I bioactivity.

ABSTRACT: Phosphorylation of decidual IGFBP-1 enhances binding of IGF-I, limiting the bioavailability of this growth factor which may contribute to reduced placental and fetal growth. The mechanisms regulating decidual IGFBP-1 phosphorylation are incompletely understood. Using decidualized human immortalized endometrial stromal cells we tested the hypothesis that low oxygen tension or reduced leucine availability, believed to be common in placental insufficiency, increase the phosphorylation of decidual IGFBP-1. Multiple reaction monitoring-MS (MRM-MS) was used to quantify IGFBP-1 phosphorylation. MRM-MS validated the novel phosphorylation of IGFBP-1 at Ser58, however this site was unaffected by low oxygen tension/leucine deprivation. In contrast, significantly elevated phosphorylation was detected for pSer119, pSer98/pSer101 and pSer169/pSer174 sites. Immunoblotting and dual-immunofluorescence using phosphosite-specific IGFBP-1 antibodies further demonstrated increased IGFBP-1 phosphorylation in HIESC under both treatments which concomitantly reduced IGF-I bioactivity. These data support the hypothesis that down regulation of IGF-I signaling links decidual IGFBP-1 hyperphosphorylation to restricted fetal growth in placental insufficiency.

Project description:Cell-to-cell communication is essential for the spiral artery (SpA) remodeling and required for maternal transfer of nutrient and oxygen to the fetus. Extravillous trophoblast invade the uterine arteries to remodel the SpA during the first 20 weeks of gestation. Interestingly, oxygen tenstion in the uterine environment changes with the progression of pregnancies and damage in the SpA remodelling can lead to preeclampsia and pther pregnancy complications. Recently, our understanding of how cells communicate has undergone a paradigm shift since the recognition of the role of exosomes on intercellular signaling. Here, we investigated whether oxygen tension alters the exosome release and miRNA profile from extravillous trophoblast (EVT), modifying their bioactivity on endothelial cells. Furthermore, we have established the exosomal miRNA profile at early gestation in women who develop pre-eclampsia (PE) and spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB). The effect of oxygen tension (i.e. 8% and 1% oxygen) on exosome release was quantified using nanocrystals (Qdot®) coupled to CD63 by fluorescence NTA. A real-time, live-cell imaging system (Incucyte™) was used to establish the effect of exosomes on endothelial cells. Plasma samples were obtained at early gestation (<18 weeks) and classified according to pregnancy outcomes. An Illumina TrueSeq Small RNA kit was used to construct a small RNA library from exosomal RNA obtained from EVT and plasma samples. The number of exosomes was significantly hifger in EVT culturedunder 1% compared to 8% oxygen. In total, 741 miRNA were identified in exosomes from EVT. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that these miRNA were associated with cell migration and cytokine production. Interestingly, exosomes isolated from EVT cultured at 8% oxygen increased EC migration, while exosomes from 1% oxygen decrease EC migration. These changes were inversely proportional to TNF-α released from EC. Finally, we have identified a set of uniques miRNA in exosomes from EVT cultured at 1% oxygen and exosomes isolated from maternal at early gestation, who developed PE and SPTB later in pregnancy. We suggest that aberrant exosomal signalling by placental cells is a common aetiological factor in pregnancy complications characterised by incomplete SpA remodeling and is therefore a clinically useful biomarker of pregnancy complications.
