Role of S1P/S1PR3 axis in release of CCL20 from human bronchial epithelial cells.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Sphingosine kinase phosphorylates sphingosine to generate sphingosine 1 phosphate (S1P) following stimulation of the five plasma membrane G-protein-coupled receptors. The objective of this study is to clarify the role of S1P and its receptors (S1PRs), especially S1PR3 in airway epithelial cells.

Methods

The effects of S1P on asthma-related genes expression were examined with the human bronchial epithelial cells BEAS-2B and Calu-3 using a transcriptome analysis and siRNA of S1PRs. To clarify the role of CCL20 in the airway inflammation, BALB/c mice were immunized with ovalbumin (OVA) and subsequently challenged with an OVA-containing aerosol to induce asthma with or without intraperitoneal administration of anti-CCL20. Finally, the anti-inflammatory effect of VPC 23019, S1PR1/3 antagonist, in the OVA-induced asthma was examined.

Results

S1P induced the expression of some asthma-related genes, such as ADRB2, PTGER4, and CCL20, in the bronchial epithelial cells. The knock-down of SIPR3 suppressed the expression of S1P-inducing CCL20. Anti-CCL20 antibody significantly attenuated the eosinophil numbers in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (P<0.01). Upon OVA challenge, VPC23019 exhibited substantially attenuated eosinophilic inflammation.

Conclusions

S1P/S1PR3 pathways have a role in release of proinflammatory cytokines from bronchial epithelial cells. Our results suggest that S1P/S1PR3 may be a possible candidate for the treatment of bronchial asthma.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Osteosarcoma (OS) is a malignant tumor mainly occurring in young people. Due to the limited effective therapeutic strategies, OS patients cannot achieve further survival improvement. G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest family of cell membrane receptors and consequently hold the significant promise for tumor imaging and targeted therapy. We aimed to explore the biological functions of Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 3 (S1PR3), one of the members of GPCRs family, in OS and the possibility of S1PR3 as an effective target for the treatment of osteosarcoma. METHODS:The quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blotting were used to analyze the mRNA and protein expressions. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK8), colony formation assay and cell apoptosis assay were performed to test the cellular proliferation in vitro. Subcutaneous xenograft mouse model was generated to evaluate the functions of S1PR3 in vivo. RNA sequencing was used to compare gene expression patterns between S1PR3-knockdown and control MNNG-HOS cells. In addition, metabolic alternations in OS cells were monitored by XF96 metabolic flux analyzer. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay was used to explore the interaction between Yes-associated protein (YAP) and c-MYC. Chromatin immunoprecipitation was used to investigate the binding capability of PGAM1 and YAP or c-MYC. Moreover, the activities of promoter were determined by the luciferase reporter assay. FINDINGS:S1PR3 and its specific ligand Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) were found elevated in OS, and the higher expression of S1PR3 was correlated with the poor survival rate. Moreover, our study has proved that the S1P/S1PR3 axis play roles in proliferation promotion, apoptosis inhibition, and aerobic glycolysis promotion of osteosarcoma cells. Mechanistically, the S1P/S1PR3 axis inhibited the phosphorylation of YAP and promoted the nuclear translocation of YAP, which contributed to the formation of the YAP-c-MYC complex and enhanced transcription of the important glycolysis enzyme PGAM1. Moreover, the S1PR3 antagonist TY52156 exhibited in vitro and in vivo synergistic inhibitory effects with methotrexate on OS cell growth. INTERPRETATION:Our study unveiled a role of S1P, a bioactive phospholipid, in glucose metabolism reprogram through interaction with its receptor S1PR3. Targeting S1P/S1PR3 axis might serve as a potential therapeutic target for patients with OS.

Project description:BackgroundChemokine networks play a key and complex role in tumor progression. CCL20 and its unique receptor CCR6 have been reported to mediate malignant biological activities in various cancers, but their role in ovarian cancer metastasis remains unclear.PurposeOur study aims to explore the effect of CCL20-CCR6 axis on ovarian cancer metastasis and its potential mechanism.MethodsThe transwell assay was used to detect the cell migration and invasion after CCL20 treatment. The CCK-8 assay was used to detect the cell viability after CCL20 treatment and CCR6 depletion. The mRNA and protein expression were assayed through qRT-PCR and Western blotting. The siRNAs and CRISPR-Cas9 system were adopted to suppress CCR6 expression. Intraperitoneal xenograft mouse model was constructed to test the pro-metastasis effect of CCL20-CCR6 axis in vivo. The differentially expressed genes induced by CCL20 were identified through RNA-sequencing, and immunohistochemistry staining was used to detect their protein expression in tumor tissues.ResultsOur results revealed that CCL20 treatment selectively promoted the migration and invasion of CCR6high ovarian cancer cells, but had no effect on CCR6low cells. Blockade of CCR6 expression effectively reversed the cell migration and invasion induced by CCL20 stimulation. Animal experiment proved that CCL20-CCR6 axis mediated ovarian cancer metastasis in vivo. The differentially expressed genes after CCL20 stimulation were associated with metastasis, and CCL20 induced an increased expression of CDH2 and VCAN and decreased CDH1 expression in cancer cells. Moreover, CCL20 stimulated the expression of N-cadherin and versican in tumor tissues and inhibited the expression of E-cadherin, while CCR6 knockout successfully blocked the expression changes.ConclusionOur findings revealed that CCL20-CCR6 axis promotes ovarian cancer metastasis both in vivo and in vitro, probably through increasing cancer cell adhesion and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Blockade of CCL20-CCR6 axis might become a novel anti-tumor therapeutic target for ovarian cancer.

Project description:Background: Activation of coagulation system plays an important role in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) pathogenesis. Thrombin, generated during coagulation could disrupt endothelial barrier integrity through protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1). Our previous study found that sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) contributed to myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA-positive IgG-induced glomerular endothelial cell (GEnC) activation through a S1P receptor (S1PR)-dependent route. In recent years, S1P signaling was reported to be involved in thrombin effects on endothelial cells. This current study investigated whether the interaction between thrombin-PAR and S1P-S1PR signaling contributed to MPO-ANCA-positive IgG-induced GEnC dysfunction. Methods: The effect of thrombin on GEnC activation was analyzed from three aspects. First, morphological alteration of GEnCs was observed. Second, permeability assay was performed to determine GEnC monolayer activation quantitatively. Third, endothelin-1 (ET-1) levels were measured. Expression levels of sphingosine kinases (SphKs) and S1PRs were detected. In addition, antagonists of PAR1 and S1PR3 were employed to determine their roles. Eventually, PAR1 and tissue factor (TF) expression levels as well as TF procoagulant activity were analyzed. Results: Thrombin induced further damage of tight junction, increase in endothelial monolayer permeability as well as upregulation of ET-1 levels in GEnCs stimulated with MPO-ANCA-positive IgG. Blocking PAR1 downregulated ET-1 levels in the supernatants of GEnCs treated by thrombin plus MPO-ANCA-positive IgG. Expression levels of SphK1, S1PR3 increased significantly in GEnCs treated with thrombin plus MPO-ANCA-positive IgG. S1P upregulated PAR1 and TF expression, and enhanced procoagulant activity of TF in MPO-ANCA-positive IgG-stimulated GEnCs. Conclusion: Thrombin synergized with SphK1-S1P-S1PR3 signaling pathway to enhance MPO-ANCA-positive IgG-mediated GEnC activation.
