Rheumatoid Synovial Fluids Regulate the Immunomodulatory Potential of Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Through a TNF/NF-?B-Dependent Mechanism.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC) have been shown to have remarkable immune-modulating effects. However, their efficacy in clinical trials has yet to be fully demonstrated. This could be due to a lack of a proper inflammatory environment in vivo that primes ADSC. Here, we define how the articular microenvironment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients modulates the therapeutic efficiency of ADSC. Methods: Synovial fluids (SF) were collected from 8 RA patients, 2 Spondyloarthritis patients and one control synovial fluid from a patient undergoing traumatic-related surgery. SF inflammatory status was determined by routine analysis and quantification of pro-inflammatory cytokines. ADSC were first treated with SF and ADSC proliferation and gene expression of immunomodulatory factors was evaluated. In order to determine the mechanisms underlying the effect of SF on ADSC, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and NF-?B neutralization assays were performed. To evaluate the effect of SF on ADSC functions, ADSC were pre-treated with SF and then co-cultured with either macrophages or T cells. The modulation of their phenotype was assessed by flow cytometry. Results: Pro-inflammatory RASF maintained the proliferative capacity of ADSC and upregulated the gene expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2), indoleamine-1,2-dioxygenase (IDO), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor-necrosis factor stimulated gene 6 (TSG6), intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), all factors involved in ADSC immunomodulatory potential. The RASF-induced gene expression was mainly mediated by TNF alone or in combination with IL-6 and signaled through the NF-?B pathway. Conditioning ADSC with pro-inflammatory RASF enhanced their ability to induce CD4⁺Foxp3⁺CD25^high regulatory T cells (Tregs) and inhibit pro-inflammatory markers CD40 and CD80 in activated macrophages. Conclusions: Inflammatory synovial fluids from RA patients had the capacity to modulate ADSC response, to induce Tregs and modulate the phenotype of macrophages. The clinical use of ADSC in affected joints should take into account the influence of the local articular environment on their potential. Having a sufficient pro-inflammatory microenvironment will determine whether optimal immunoregulatory response should be expected. Direct ADSC intra-articular delivery to patients could be a potential strategy to properly prime their immunomodulatory potential and enhance their clinical benefits.

Project description:BackgroundGlaucocalyxin B (Gla B) is a type of sesquiterpenoids. At present, there are rare studies on the pharmacological effects and targets of sesquiterpenoids, while multiple sesquiterpenoids have good anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the mechanism of Gla B on macrophages and rheumatoid arthritis.MethodsLPS/IFN-γ was used to induce M1 polarization of synovial macrophage (SMG) in vitro, followed by Gla B pretreatment (5 μM and 15 μM). Afterwards, flow cytometry was performed to detect the proportion of M1 cells (F4/80+CD86+), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the expression levels of M1 cell markers (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, iNOS and IL-12) as well as M2 cell markers (IL-10 and TGF- β1), immunofluorescence (IF) staining was utilized to measure the expression of CD86, the level of ROS was assessed by probe and Western blot was conducted to detect the expression of P65 and p-P65. M1 polarization was detected in SMG cells with P65 silencing after 15 μM Gla B intervention. The culture medium from M1 cell was used to culture cartilage cells in vitro, followed by detection of cartilage cell injury. In animal models, collagen antibodies and LPS were combined to induce RA mouse model. Afterwards, H and E staining was performed to detect pathological changes in mouse joint synovium, safranin O-fast green staining was used to determine cartilage injury, and immunohistochemistry was utilized to detect CD86 and P65 expression. Small molecule-protein docking and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) were used to verify the targeted binding relationship between Gal B and P65.ResultsLPS and IFN-γ could induce M1 polarization in SMG. Gal B could inhibit M1 polarization, decrease the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, iNOS and IL-12, inhibit the expression of P65 and p-P65 while did not affect the expression of IL-10 or TGF-β1. Gal B had no significant effect in SMG cells with P65 silencing. The small molecule-protein docking and Co-IP both showed that Gal B had a targeted binding relationship with P65, and Gal B could inhibit joint injury and inflammation in mice.ConclusionGal B could target the P65 protein. Moreover, Gal B could inhibit the inflammatory injury of articular cartilage in RA by regulating M1 polarization of SMG through inhibiting the NF-κB signaling.

Project description:Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a pleiotropic cytokine whose primary physiological function involves coordinating inflammatory and adaptive immune responses. However, uncontrolled TNF signaling causes aberrant inflammation and has been implicated in several human ailments. Therefore, an understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying dynamical and gene controls of TNF signaling bear significance for human health. As such, TNF engages the canonical nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway to activate RelA:p50 heterodimers, which induce expression of specific immune response genes. Brief and chronic TNF stimulation produces transient and long-lasting NF-κB activities, respectively. Negative feedback regulators of the canonical pathway, including IκBα, are thought to ensure transient RelA:p50 responses to short-lived TNF signals. The non-canonical NF-κB pathway mediates RelB activity during immune differentiation involving p100. We uncovered an unexpected role of p100 in TNF signaling. Brief TNF stimulation of p100-deficient cells triggered an additional late NF-κB activity consisting of RelB:p50 heterodimers, which modified the TNF-induced gene-expression program. In p100-deficient cells subjected to brief TNF stimulation, RelB:p50 not only sustained the expression of a subset of RelA-target immune response genes but also activated additional genes that were not normally induced by TNF in WT mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and were related to immune differentiation and metabolic processes. Despite this RelB-mediated distinct gene control, however, RelA and RelB bound to mostly overlapping chromatin sites in p100-deficient cells. Repeated TNF pulses strengthened this RelB:p50 activity, which was supported by NF-κB-driven RelB synthesis. Finally, brief TNF stimulation elicited late-acting expressions of NF-κB target pro-survival genes in p100-deficient myeloma cells. In sum, our study suggests that the immune-differentiation regulator p100 enforces specificity of TNF signaling and that varied p100 levels may provide for modifying TNF responses in diverse physiological and pathological settings.
