Tumor Necrosis Factor α Reduces SNAP29 Dependent Autolysosome Formation to Increase Prion Protein Level and Promote Tumor Cell Migration.

ABSTRACT: Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNFα) is best known as a mediator of inflammation and immunity, and also plays important roles in tumor biology. However, the role of TNFα in tumor biology is complex and not completely understood. In a human melanoma cell line, M2, and a lung carcinoma cell line, A549, TNFα up-regulates prion protein (PrP) level, and promotes tumor cell migration in a PrP dependent manner. Silencing PRNP abrogates TNFα induced tumor cell migration; this phenotype is reversed when PRNP is re-introduced. Treatment with TNFα activates nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling, which then mitigates autophagy by reducing the expression of Forkhead Box P3 (FOXP3). Down regulation of FOXP3 reduces the transcription of synaptosome associated protein 29 (SNAP29), which is essential in the fusion of autophagosome and lysosome creating autolysosome. FOXP3 being a bona fide transcription factor for SNAP29 is confirmed in a promoter binding assay. Accordingly, silencing SNAP29 in these cell lines also up-regulates PrP, and promotes tumor cell migration without TNFα treatment. But, when SNAP29 or FOXP3 is silenced in these cells, they are no longer respond to TNFα. Thus, a reduction in autophagy is the underlying mechanism by which expression of PrP is up-regulated, and tumor cell migration is enhanced upon TNFα treatment. Disrupting the TNFα-NF-κB-FOXP3-SNAP29 signaling axis may provide a therapeutic approach to mitigate tumor cell migration.

Project description:Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is elevated in human abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Non-selective TNF inhibition has been linked to several severe side effects. Compounds that target the proinflammatory soluble TNF (solTNF) while preserving the immunomodulatory capabilities of transmembrane TNF (tmTNF) may prevent such side effects. We hypothesize that inhibition of solTNF signaling by XPro1595 is just as effective as non-selective TNF inhibition by etanercept (ETN) in preventing AAA expansion. The effect of XPro1595 and ETN was examined in porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) induced AAA mice and findings of XPro1595 was confirmed in Angiotensin II (AngII) induced AAA in hyperlipidemic apolipoprotein E (Apoe) -/- mice. XPro1595 treatment significantly reduced AAA expansion in both models, while a similar trend (p=0.06) was observed in ETN-treated mice using the PPE model. In the PPE aneurysm wall, elastin integrity scores were significantly improved in the XPro1595 group. In the aneurysms, mean TNFR1wasreduced no-significantly (p=0.07) by 50% non-significant after TNF inhibition, but the cellular location in murine AAAs were unaffected and like the localization in human AAAs. Systemic TNF levels were elevated in XPro1595-treated mice, while systemic IL-10 levels were significantly increased after ETN-treatment, while in AngII induced AAA mice systemic TNF and IL5 levels were elevated after XPro1595 treatment. In early AAA development, proteomic analyses revealed that components of the fibrinogen complex were elevated while prostaglandin E2 synthase was down regulated by Xpro1595 (unadjusted p-values). David’s ontology analyses revealed that several pathways including cell matrix adhesion, extracellular space, fibrinogen complex, blood microparticles and glycoproteins were elevated by XPro1595 treatment. In conclusion, selective inhibition of solTNF reduces aneurysm expansion. This supports targeting solTNF as an attractive treatment option for AAA patients.

Project description:BackgroundTumor necrosis factor (TNF) is pathologically elevated in human abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Non-selective TNF inhibition-based therapeutics are approved for human use but have been linked to several side effects. Compounds that target the proinflammatory soluble form of TNF (solTNF) but preserve the immunomodulatory capabilities of the transmembrane form of TNF (tmTNF) may prevent these side effects. We hypothesize that inhibition of solTNF signaling prevents AAA expansion.MethodsThe effect of the selective solTNF inhibitor, XPro1595, and the non-selective TNF inhibitor, Etanercept (ETN) was examined in porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) induced AAA mice, and findings with XPro1595 was confirmed in angiotensin II (ANGII) induced AAA in hyperlipidemic apolipoprotein E (Apoe) -/- mice.ResultsXPro1595 treatment significantly reduced AAA expansion in both models, and a similar trend (p = 0.06) was observed in PPE-induced AAA in ETN-treated mice. In the PPE aneurysm wall, XPro1595 improved elastin integrity scores. In aneurysms, mean TNFR1 levels reduced non-significantly (p = 0.07) by 50% after TNF inhibition, but the histological location in murine AAAs was unaffected and similar to that in human AAAs. Semi-quantification of infiltrating leucocytes, macrophages, T-cells, and neutrophils in the aneurysm wall were unaffected by TNF inhibition. XPro1595 increased systemic TNF levels, while ETN increased systemic IL-10 levels. In ANGII-induced AAA mice, XPro1595 increased systemic TNF and IL-5 levels. In early AAA development, proteomic analyses revealed that XPro1595 significantly upregulated ontology terms including "platelet aggregation" and "coagulation" related to the fibrinogen complex, from which several proteins were among the top regulated proteins. Downregulated ontology terms were associated with metabolic processes.ConclusionIn conclusion, selective inhibition of solTNF signaling reduced aneurysm expansion in mice, supporting its potential as an attractive treatment option for AAA patients.
